Joe Root said the England Test captaincy had taken a toll on his personal health after he guided his side to a memorable five-wicket win against New Zealand on Sunday in his first match since relinquishing the role. The 31-year-old stepped down as skipper in the aftermath of England's 1-0 series defeat in the Caribbean in March, which came on the heels of a disastrous 4-0 loss against Australia in the Ashes.
Umran Malik grabbed a lot of eyeballs during the recently-concluded IPL 2022 and went on to take 22 wickets for SunRisers Hyderabad in 14 games, including a fifer against Gujarat Titans. The pacer bowled consistently in the range of 150kmph and even bowled the second-fastest delivery of the season, at a speed of 157kmph. The bowler from Jammu has been named in India's squad for the upcoming five-match series against South Africa, beginning Wednesday at Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi.
A new-look New Zealand side began their preparations for hosting the women's World Cup by coming from behind for a hard-fought 23-10 victory over Australia in the Pacific Four tournament at a rain-soaked Tauranga Domain on Monday.
Joe Root was the toast of the cricketing world on Sunday, as his fine unbeaten century helped England beat New Zealand by five wickets in the opening Test at Lord's to give the hosts a 1-0 lead in the three-match series. Root also joined an elite list of players to score 10,000 runs in the longest format, becoming the joint-youngest along with Alastair Cook to do. Following Joe Root's heroics at Lord's, plaudits poured in from all parts of the world for the Englishman. Former Australia captain Mark Taylor too was effusive in his praise and went as far as saying that Root can very well break Sachin Tendulkar's all-time record of 15,921 runs in Test cricket.
Joe Root, playing his first match since stepping down as England Test captain, hit a match-winning 115 not out in the fourth innings at Lord's to help the hosts take a 1-0 series lead against New Zealand on Sunday. It was Root's 26th Test century and also saw him become only the second Englishman to reach 10,000 runs in the longest format of the game. As Root shook the hands of the New Zealand players after hitting the winning runs and walked back up through the hallowed Lord's pavilion to the dressing room, he got a standing ovation from all present and was met with hugs from elated teammates, led by new England Test skipper Ben Stokes.
Rafa Nadal, campeón ya de 22 torneos de Grand Slam, ha vivido una carrera plena de éxitos, paradójicamente, siempre con una espada de Damocles sobre su cabeza.
