"Pakistan Is A Good Team But...": Yuzvendra Chahal On Much-Hyped Match In T20 World Cup 2022

There arguably isn't a cricketing contest that can match the hype of an India vs Pakistan match. Much like the T20 World Cup 2021, India and Pakistan will kick-off their respective campaigns in the 2022 edition of the tournament in Australia. Though a lot has been said and written about the Indo-Pak clash ahead of the October 23 showdown, the perspective of players towards this match remains a little different. Yuzvendra Chahal, one of the finest spinners in the game at the moment, has highlighted the importance of not thinking too much about this contest.

India Eye Another Crushing Win Against Thailand On Way To Asia Cup Final

It has been a smooth ride for the mighty Indian team so far and the trend is expected to continue when the sub-continent powerhouse aim to crush minnows Thailand one more time in the Women's Asia Cup semifinal here on Thursday. The last match between two teams had turned out to be a huge mismatch as India had skittled Thailand out for just 37 runs in 15.1 overs to run away with an easy win during the league stage.

Suryakumar Yadav can be India's version of AB de Villiers: Dale Steyn

Dale Steyn feels the pace and bounce on Australian pitches will suit Suryakumar Yadav's 360-degree game, making him India's go-to player in the upcoming T20 World Cup. Following a hattrick of half-centuries in the bilateral home series against Australia, the Mumbaikar continued his red-hot form Down Under as he slammed a 35-ball 53 in India's 13-run win over Western Australia in a practice match here on Monday. "He is a wonderful 360-degree player, and reminds me of AB de Villiers. He could be India's version of AB de Villiers and with the red-hot form that he's in right now, he's a player to definitely watch out for this World Cup," Steyn said on Star Sports show ‘Cricket Live'. Steyn went on to explain how the Australian conditions would be just perfect for the Indian No. 4 to hit top-gear. The Rohit Sharma-led side will face Australia on October 17 at the Gabba in the official warm-up game before taking on Pakistan in their tournament opener on October 23.
