"Should've Been Punished": Jasprit Bumrah Heavily Criticised For This "Disgraceful Act" In Sydney Test

The 19-year-old Australia opener Sam Konstas had an eventful time as he made his debut in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024/25.

He also faced a fair bit of aggression and sledging from Team India, particularly Virat Kohli and Jasprit Bumrah. Kohli was even fined for getting involved in a shoulder-barging incident with Konstas. New South Wales coach Greg Shipperd - under whom Konstas plays in domestic cricket - slammed the actions of Kohli and Bumrah.

England Skipper Ben Stokes Undergoes Hamstring Operation

England Test captain Ben Stokes on Tuesday said he had undergone surgery on his injured hamstring. The 33-year-old all-rounder tore his left hamstring during the third Test against New Zealand in Hamilton -- England's final game of 2024. That left Stokes requiring surgery and needing a three-month absence. On Tuesday, Stokes posted a picture on Instagram of him in a car supported by a leg brace. He captioned the photo: "Bionic Man for a while." Stokes missed four consecutive Test matches after tearing the same hamstring while playing in the Hundred in August.

'Could Not Bring Down Jasprit Bumrah, They Broke Rohit Sharma': Pat Cummins And Co's Strategy vs India Decoded

Indian skipper Rohit Sharma wilted under the traditional Australian tactic of mentally breaking down the opposition captains during the just-concluded Border-Gavaskar Trophy, said former spinner Kerry O'Keeffe.

But then the baton was passed to Rohit Sharma and they brought him down straight away, to the extent that he withdrew from the final Test,” O'Keeffe told Fox Sports.
