It has been more than 10 years of India's ICC trophy drought. In 2013, the side won the Champions Trophy and since then it has struggled to finish things off. India lost to Sri Lanka in the final of 2014 T20 World Cup before the side lost the 2015 ODI World Cup semi-final at the hands of Australia. In the 2016 T20 World Cup semi-final, India were defeated by West Indies. They then suffered a loss against arch-rivals Pakistan in the final of Champions Trophy in 2017.
New Zealand coach Jitka Klimkova said the "Football Ferns" would fight for their country at the Women's World Cup they are co-hosting with Australia after naming her 23-woman squad for the tournament on Friday (Jun 30).
Katie McCabe hopes girls all over the country will "dare to dream" when they watch the Republic of Ireland women's team break new ground this summer.
From the day the 2023 World Cup schedule was announced, all eyes are on the India-Pakistan clash. The match will be played at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on October. The tournament will begin with holders England taking on New Zealand on October 5 at the world's biggest cricket stadium in Ahmedabad, which will also host the final. The schedule was announced after weeks of delay due to Pakistan's earlier refusal to travel to India, but a compromise was reached when Pakistan agreed to host a hybrid-model Asia Cup in September.
It would be a surprise if any of the spectators at Trent Bridge, Nottingham, were not highly impressed by the quality of cricket played by the women chosen to represent England and Australia over five days between June 22 and 26.
Cricket is becoming more fascinating with every passing day. Earlier, there was a time when teams used to easily defend a target like 150 in 20 overs but now, 200 runs are also being easily chased. Batters have adapted many different techniques like switch hit, square cut, scoop shot, etc to score quick runs. India batter Suryakumar Yadav and South Africa legend AB de Villiers are the biggest example of the players, who are known for their unconventional shots. However, a video is getting viral on social media, where a batter has invented a very unique type of shot.
Talking about the upcoming 50-over World Cup in India later this year, Chris Gayle has picked India, England, Pakistan and New Zealand as the four semi-finalists. On the much awaited Indo-Pak clash in Ahmedabad on October 15, Gayle has a rather different take. "Whenever those teams play, especially in a World Cup, the revenues they generate is humongous. One game can take care of the entire ICC event. Pakistan and India players should demand a lot of money for those games because those games are high paid games TV wise," Gayle told PTI.
