Tim David hit a four off the last ball to give Australia a nail-biting six-wicket victory over New Zealand in the first Twenty20 international in Wellington on Wednesday. Having been set 216 to win, Australia skipper Mitchell Marsh hammered 72 off 44 balls before batting partner David (31 not out) sealed a thrilling last-gasp victory. The three-match series is the last for both teams before the T20 World Cup in the United States and West Indies in June. Rachin Ravindra had earlier put New Zealand in the driving seat by hitting 68 runs off 35 balls to claim his first half-century in the format as the hosts finished on 215-3. Marsh finished with best bowling figures of 1-21 before leading the charge with the bat, hitting seven sixes and two fours in his unbeaten knock.
Former India cricketer Lalchand Rajput has been appointed head coach of the United Arab Emirates men's team for three years, replacing Pakistan's Mudassar Nazar. Rajput's first assignment with the side will be the ICC Cricket World Cup League 2 tri-series against Scotland and Canada, being hosted in the UAE from February 28. It will be followed by a three-match T20I series against Scotland at home next month. The 62-year-old Rajput's appointment comes in the backdrop of UAE failing to make it to the T20 World Cup to be held in the West Indies and the USA this year.
Former Australian cricket team skipper Michael Clarke blasted England batter Ben Duckett for his comments regarding India youngster Yashasvi Jaiswal. Following Jaiswal's double ton in India's win over England in the third Test encounter in Rajkot, Duckett commented that England's Bazball approach has encouraged other cricketers from other teams to play aggressive brand of cricket. Clarke was not pleased with the comment and during a discussion on ESPN Australia's Around The Wicket, he recalled the likes of Matthew Hayden and Ricky Ponting to point out that the aggressive style of batting pre-dates Bazball.
Former Australia captain Ian Chappell has urged out-of-form England batter Joe Root to shun the 'Bazball' approach and get back to playing his natural game. Senior batter Root has struggled for runs in the ongoing five-match series against India, registering a set of low scores across six innings. Keeping up with England's aggressive Bazball approach, Root has mostly lost his wicket playing outlandish shots in India. "Root had a bloody fine record playing normally, and he was a quick scorer playing normally," Chappell told 'Wide World of Sports', describing Bazball as "bullshit".
