3rd Test: Australian Openers Start Well, Reach 28/0 On Rain-Curtailed Day 1

Local hero Usman Khawaja and young Nathan McSweeney displayed sound defensive technique against Jasprit Bumrah but persistent rain played havoc with the opening day of the third Test, allowing only 13.2 overs of play in which Australia scored 28 for no loss against India in Brisbane Saturday. The gloomy weather didn't allow any action after the rain-curtailed first session. The weather in Brisbane indicates a start-stop game throughout the next four days. Khawaja (19 batting, 47 balls) and McSweeney (4 batting, 33 balls) traded aggression with caution but the senior left-hander still got a couple of boundaries when Mohammed Siraj pitched it short.

"Cringe, Need Downfall": Pat Cummins' One-Word Description For Virat Kohli Irks Indian Fans

A video asking Australia cricket team stars to describe Virat Kohli in one word has gone viral, particularly due to Australian captain Pat Cummins' response.

Cummins' response drew the ire of Indian fans on social media, with some labelling him arrogant, while some more expressed their annoyance at Cummins' choice of words. "Need Pat Cummins' downfall," posted one user, as a reply to the video posted on X by Australian media outlet ABC Sport. "Not going to lie, this is becoming quite cringe now," retorted another user.

1st T20I: Under-fire Harmanpreet Kaur's India Face Gritty West Indies

Her poor leadership under constant scanner, a beleaguered Indian captain Harmanpreet Kaur will need to quickly pick up pieces from the Australia series debacle as hosts take on West Indies in the opening game of the three-match WT20I series starting in Navi Mumbai on Sunday. India have won each of their last eight T20Is against the West Indies in the shortest format since November 2019.
