Australian breaker Rachael Gunn, known as "Raygun", has retired from competitive breakdancing due to the scrutiny, criticism and conspiracy theories she faced after her unorthodox routine at the Paris Olympics went viral.
Former Australia skipper Ricky Ponting feels that Pakistan's newly-appointed white-ball captain Mohammad Rizwan should get a "decent run" at the role to showcase his leadership skills in the formats. Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) appointed Rizwan as captain of the white-ball teams last month after Babar Azam quit the role for the second time following the early exit from the T20 World Cup 2024. Rizwan's first assignment as captain saw Pakistan lose against ODI World champions Australia in the series opener in Melbourne last week. However, Ponting warned Pakistan's management against any impulsive decision regarding the leadership role.
Australian breaker Rachael Gunn has told a Sydney radio station that she plans to retire from competition just three months after her unconventional routine at the Paris Olympics led to her being ridiculed and spawned conspiracy theories about how she qualified for the Games.
England's pace great James Anderson says he has listed himself for the upcoming IPL mega auction to enhance his knowledge about the game, having ended his international career as the most successful fast bowler in Test cricket earlier this year. In a surprising move, the 42-year-old Anderson, who last played a T20 match in 2014 and never played a match in the Indian Premier League, registered himself for the auction slated to take place on November 24 and 25 in Jeddah, at a base price of Rs 1.25 crore.
Pacer Michael Neser has been ruled out of the remainder of Australia A match against India A with hamstring injury after bagging four wickets on the opening day of the second unofficial Test. Neser, who returned with the figures of 4-27, pulled up sharply following his second delivery of the 13th over in the morning. He immediately began limping off the ground in a clear sign that he knew exactly what the issue was. A Cricket Australia (CA) spokesperson confirmed to ESPNcricinfo that Neser had injured his left hamstring and would not bowl again in the game. He will undergo scans to determine the severity of the injury.
The Indian cricket team, led by Rohit Sharma, suffered an embarrassing 3-0 whitewash at the hands of New Zealand in a recently-concluded Test series at home. Notably, this is the first time India have faced a clean sweep on home soil in a Test series of three or more matches. The Indian batters failed miserably against the New Zealand spinners, who used the conditions better than the host team. Former India captain and batting great Sunil Gavaskar criticised the Indian side for its flop show. Stating that India were not ready for the series, the legend gave an example of how Sachin Tendulkar prepared himself for an important series back in 1998.
