All-rounder Liam Dawson has returned to England's T20 squad for the first time since 2022, while Phil Salt was not selected by the England & Wales Cricket Board for the upcoming white-ball home series against West Indies.
Pat Cummins and Travis Head, the Australian pair who are set to feature in next month's World Test Championship final, are expected to rejoin the Sunrisers Hyderabad squad ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 resumption on May 17, according to ESPNcricinfo. Last week, the 18th edition of the cash-rich league was suspended due to India's cross-border tensions with Pakistan. The future of the remainder of the tournament was clouded in uncertainty. On Monday, the BCCI cleared the doubts by confirming that IPL would resume on Saturday in Bengaluru.
Virat Kohli had nothing to boast of as he returned from a forgettable tour of England in 2014 with his pride dented by James Anderson. Desperate to assert himself on the big stage, Kohli dialled his Under-19 coach Lalchand Rajput. Sachin Tendulkar too had offered some tips, but a two-week training camp in Mumbai with Rajput was the real turning point in Kohli's career. Kohli's desperation was justified as the numbers — 134 runs from 5 Tests at 13 and 54 runs from 4 ODIs at 18 — reflected his struggles in the seam-friendly English conditions.
The BCCI and IPL franchises have ramped up pressure on foreign boards to ensure that their players return for the league's resumption on May 17 despite some lingering safety concerns in the wake of India-Pakistan military hostilities. The BCCI top brass has instructed IPL COO Hemang Amin to individually speak to the likes of Cricket Australia and England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) to allay the concerns that the players may have about returning to India.
CAPE TOWN :South Africa have included Kagiso Rabada in their squad for the World Test Championship final against Australia at Lord's from June 11-15 following the fast bowler's return from a suspension having tested positive for a banned substance.
Andy Murray’s partnership with Novak Djokovic has come to an end after the pair announced they would no longer be working together.
India on Monday named a 24-member team for the European leg of the women's Pro League hockey in June with midfielder Salima Tete as the captain. India will play twice each against Australia, Argentina, Belgium and China in London, Antwerp and Berlin from June 14 to 29. India will begin their campaign against Australia on June 14. Experienced forward Navneet Kaur will be Salima's deputy during the assignment. The team includes goalkeepers Savita and Bichu Devi Kharibam.
If there was one player who was considered worthy of bettering Sachin Tendulkar's record of 100 international hundreds, it was Virat Kohli. When Tendulkar was asked in an award ceremony after hitting his 100th century on who could break his record, he took two names: Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. Within a week, both Rohit and Virat retired from the Test format. Kohli, who quit the Test arena on Monday, is still 18 hundreds away from equalling the incredible milestone and now has just one format to play, maybe for a maximum of two years. In an age when the relevance of the 50-over format is a continuous debate, hitting 19 hundreds in ODIs is a humongous task. There is a possibility of Kohli featuring in the ODI World Cup to be held in South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Namibia in 2027.
