England captain Jos Buttler said the team have shown a desire to "put things right" in India after a dismal World Cup campaign and are determined to secure a spot in the 2025 Champions Trophy with a top-eight finish.
Virat Kohli has literally owned the ODI Cricket World Cup 2023. In eight matches so far he has scored four half-centuries and two centuries. Virat Kohli's latest ton came against South Africa, which saw him go level with the great Sachin Tendulkar in scoring 49 ODI centuries. However, former Pakistan batter Mohammed Hafeez made strange remark after the ton. "I saw sense of selfishness in Virat Kohli's batting and this happened for the third time in this World Cup. In the 49th over, he was looking to take a single to reach his own hundred and he didn't put the team first," he said on Top Cricket Analysis show.
The 'timed out' controversy has became a big news in the world of sports. And there are enough reasons for it to happen. The dismissal of Sri Lanka star Angelo Mathews was the first timed out dismissal in the 146 history of international cricket. The decision of Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan to appeal for a 'timed out' dismissal after Angelo Mathews took over two minutes to get ready to face the ball, as per the rules of the Cricket World Cup, has been widely discussed. The umpires deemed Angelo Mathews and he was left an unhappy man.
England all-rounder Ben Stokes, who produced a match-winning performance against the Netherlands and also brought up his maiden ton in the World Cup, was more pleased with the team's victory rather than achieving his personal milestone. Stokes took on the opposition bowlers, scoring at a brisk rate, pushing England's score to 300 plus and keeping their hopes of sealing a place in the ICC Champions Trophy alive. After the game, Stokes was quizzed about whether he was pleased with England's victory or about his own performance to which he replied, "more pleased with the victory (than scoring a century), it has been a tough World Cup for us."
Ben Stokes became the first England player to score more than 10,000 runs and bag over 100 wickets in international cricket. Following the left-handed batter's 108-run knock against the Netherlands in the 40th match of the ODI World Cup at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune on Wednesday, he scored a total of 10,081 runs in international cricket. Apart from Stokes, Tillakaratne Dilshan, Sourav Ganguly, Sachin Tendulkar, Jacques Kallis and Sanath Jayasuriya are some other players with 10,000 and 100 wickets.
Ben Stokes once again came to England's rescue as his timely century pulled the struggling champions out of trouble and propelled them past 300 to set up a big World Cup win over the Netherlands.
Experienced all-rounder Chris Woakes became England's joint leading wicket-taker alongside iconic pacer Ian Botham in World Cups following England's victory over the Netherlands in the ongoing tournament at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune on Wednesday. Woakes after playing a crucial hand with the bat came on to produce an economical spell claiming a single wicket in seven overs and conceding just 19 runs.
