Watch: Dhruv Jurel Hits Sachin Tendulkar-esque Upper Cut For Six, Stuns Everyone

Indian cricket team wicket-keeper Dhruv Jurel announced his arrival in Test cricket with a Sachin Tendulkar-esque upper cut to slam Mark Wood for a six. During Day 2 of the third Test match between India and England in Rajkot on Friday, Jurel looked confident in his first ever Test innings and his shot against Wood's 146kmph ripper was a highlight. Wood pitched the delivery short on off-stump but Jurel read it perfectly and played a upper-cut that reminded everyone of Tendulkar. The shot earned him a lot of praise from both experts and fans alike with the video going viral on social media.

New Zealand Bowler Kyle Jamieson Sidelined By Back Injury

Fast bowler Kyle Jamieson faces another long spell on the sidelines after suffering a stress fracture in his back, New Zealand Cricket announced Saturday. Jamieson has been ruled out of cricket for at least six months after scans revealed the injury following New Zealand's first Test win over South Africa in Mount Maunganui this month. The towering seamer took match figures of 6-93 but later complained of back pain, which ruled him out of the second Test. The injury is in the same location as a fracture which required an operation in February last year but team medical staff have decided against another operation.
