South Africa dominated Scotland in all departments of the game to register a commanding 80-run win in a Women's T20 World Cup match in Dubai on Wednesday. Batting first, South Africa posted a strong 166 for five in the allotted 20 overs. In reply, the Scots failed miserably with the bat and were all out for 86 in 17.5 overs. Only two Scotland batters could reach double digits, reflecting their woes. Nonkululeko Mlaba (3/12) was the most successful bowler for South Africa while there were two wickets apiece for Chloe Tryon (2/22) and Nadine de Klerk (2/15).
India batter Ishan Kishan on Wednesday returned to the Jharkhand Ranji team as its captain, following his controversial pullout last season that led to his exclusion from the BCCI central contract. The explosive left-hander, who became a regular in India's white-ball squad after Rishabh Pant's road accident in December 2022, took a break during India's tour of South Africa last year. Post break, he did not participate in any official BCCI matches, which raised a few eyebrows as the board stressed on players prioritising domestic cricket when not on national duty.

Root began the day on 32 in reply to Pakistan's mammoth first-innings 556, needing just 39 to move past England legend Cook (12472 runs) and into fifth place on the all-time Test list. He got forward and played a delightful on-drive that raced away to the boundary to reach the milestone.
