After having hosted India for a Test, three ODIs and as many T20Is across the last 17 days, England will now host South Africa for a multi-format series, with the first ODI to be played on July 19 in Chester-le-Street. The current World Cup holders went down to India by 1-2 in a three-match home series recently – just their third at home in 15 contests since the 2015 World Cup. The post Eoin Morgan era has begun with a rare series without a 300-plus score – the first since the upsurge began in the 2015 summer. But there’s a lot more to their…

Sophia Dunkley stroked a maiden ODI hundred and Tammy Beaumont, Emma Lamb and Natalie Sciver registered fifties to set up England women’s 114-run win in the second ODI against South Africa in Bristol on July 15. The standout performer in an all-round win was Dunkley, who registered a maiden ODI hundred to power the hosts to 337/5 after Heather Knight opted to bat. The foundation was laid with a 127-run opening stand from just 21.2 overs between Beaumont (58 off 81) and Lamb (67 off 65). Left-arm spin-bowling all-rounder Chloe Tryon removed them both within six overs before Dunkley and Sciver added another 142…

Former New Zealand Scott Styris all-rounder has asked for the switch-hit to be entirely banned from the game while countering Ravichandran Ashwin’s recent take on the leg-before law related to the stroke. Innovation and unorthodoxy have become the flavour of contemporary cricket, not just in limited-overs cricket but also Test matches, with Joe Root having reverse-scooped Tim Southee, Neil Wagner and Shardul Thakur in red-ball cricket. A much-debated stroke has been the switch-hit, which has sparked debate ever since its inception. Recently, India’s premier spinner R Ashwin asked for the leg-before norms to be revised in case the batters miss the ball while attempting the shot and…

All-rounder Tim David expressed his excitement over the idea of him playing for the Australian national team at the T20 World Cup 2022, which is just three months away from its start. The right-hander has been one of the standout performers in T20 cricket over the last few years, with his stints at the various Global T20 Leagues and a highly successful international career for Singapore. He has scored 558 runs at 46.50 and a strike-rate of 158.52 in T20Is to date and has aggregated 387 runs with a strike-rate of 180 in Lancashire’s run to the semi-final of the ongoing T20 Blast 2022.

England skipper Jos Buttler was pleased with his batting unit’s adaptability on a tricky Lord’s surface in the second ODI against India on July 14, which helped the hosts clinch a 100-run win. England suffered a rare 10-wicket drubbing in the first of three matches of the series at The Oval on Tuesday, with them being undone under overcast skies by Jasprit Bumrah, who registered a career-best 6/19. Credit: BCCI In the second ODI on Thursday, the hosts found themselves in trouble at 102/5, which would become 148/6, but Moeen Ali (47) and David Willey (41) ensured that they got 246 before they’d be bundled out…

South African-born Kobus Olivier, the chief executive of Ukraine’s cricket board, believes that they meet the criteria to become an associate member of the International Cricket Council, and that cricket wouldn’t survive in the country should the entry be denied. Ukraine is expected to get a second-tier membership at the ICC meeting this month and bag a Twenty20 International status. The war-affected country will also be entitled to funds from the international governing body, which has designated a sum of 30.8 million dollars for its 96 associate members this year. 61-year-old Olivier is confident that the country will be granted the associate…

BCCI President Sourav Ganguly has backed Virat Kohli to find his way to regain his form, citing the player’s brilliance across formats over the years. Kohli has endured a tough time in recent years, with big scores eluding him across formats. His last international hundred came in November 2019 – against Bangladesh in the pink-ball Test in Kolkata – and his scores on the ongoing England tour read 11 and 20 (Edgbaston Test) and 1 and 11 (T20I series), before a groin injury kept him out of the first ODI at The Oval on Tuesday, which India won by 10 wickets. https://twitter.com/BCCI/status/1547531070907846658 The former…

A six from Rohit Sharma hit a young girl in the crowd during India’s 10-wicket win over England in the first of three ODIs at The Oval on July 13. While Jasprit Bumrah stole the show with a career-best, match-defining 6/19 to bundle out England for 110, the India captain showcased his dominant best with an unbeaten 76 off 58 to seal a comfortable 10-wicket win. Rohit struck six fours and five sixes during his stay and became the first Indian player to hit 250 maximums in ODI cricket. However, there was a moment of concern, with the play being halted briefly during his onslaught. On the third ball of…

The modern-day great is likely to miss the first of three ODIs against England, to be played at The Oval on July 13, after having sustained a groin strain. Virat Kohli is a doubtful starter for the first ODI against England at The Oval on Tuesday. The former India captain is reportedly said to have suffered a side strain in the third T20I played at Trent Bridge on July 10. The extent of the injury is unknown as of now, and the team management is likely to offer Kohli enough time for a recovery so that he is available for…
