New Zealand completed a 3-0 Twenty20 series whitewash over Ireland after Glenn Phillips' unbeaten half-century helped secure a six-wicket success following a gripping climax in Belfast.
Glenn Phillips' quick-fire 69 and four wickets from Lockie Ferguson inspired New Zealand's 31-run win over Ireland in their opening Twenty20 international on Monday. Phillips was unbeaten in his 52-ball innings as he smashed seven boundaries in New Zealand's total of 173 for eight. Jimmy Neesham kept the runs flowing for New Zealand with a rapid 29 which included a towering six into the sightscreen.
Glenn Maxwell remains in Australia's plans for the second Test against Covid-hit Sri Lanka on an expected turner at Galle, skipper Pat Cummins said Thursday. Maxwell, a batsman who bowls off-spin, will fight for a place in the team with fast bowler Mitchell Starc as the tourists look to clinch the series in the final match starting Friday. Cummins said he will announce the XI at the toss.
Stuart Broad on Saturday became the third pacer in Test cricket history to claim 550 wickets. He dismissed Mohammed Shami on Day 2 of the ongoing rescheduled fifth Test match between India and England at Edgbaston in Birmingham to register the record. The right-arm England pacer needed just one wicket to reach the milestone when he had entered the game but he remained wicketless on Day 1 despite bowling 15 overs. It was in his 16th over of the match and the first on Day 2 when Broad finally got a wicket.
The term of 'corridor of uncertainty' has been used in cricket for several years now and it is often employed to talk about fast bowlers bowling in the channel outside the off stump. It's a line of bowling which keeps the batter thinking whether to push at the delivery or not. One of the finest exponents of this line of bowling was the former Australian great Glenn McGrath, who had made career out of dismissing batters behind the wicket, after inducing an edge off their bat. James Anderson is another bowler who has dismissed scores of batters by bowling that outside off stump line in Test cricket.
Australia's Glenn Maxwell says his baggy green has seen better days but he expects to make the Test team for the Sri Lanka series thanks to his subcontinent playing experience. Maxwell, who has played just seven Tests in his decade-long career, hit a match-winning 80 in the opening one-day international -- though the tourists went down to Sri Lanka 3-2 in the five-match series.
Glenn Maxwell could make a shock return to Test cricket next week after the injury-plagued Australians added the white-ball star to their squad to face Sri Lanka. With Travis Head in doubt and Ashton Agar all but ruled out of the Test series opener in Galle on Wednesday, Maxwell is in the mix to wear his Baggy Green for the first time in five years as per cricket.com.au.
Glenn Ferguson says he sees a little bit of himself in Dale Taylor and believes the 18-year-old can continue scaling the heights in full-time football. Taylor enjoyed an impressive season at Nottingham Forest and earned his first senior Northern Ireland cap last November.
