'Unfair' Ball Change Controversy Strikes England vs Sri Lanka Test, Angelo Mathews Left Fuming

A controversy erupted from the first Test between England and Sri Lanka in Manchester after the hosts were rewarded by a ball-change decision, that many deemed 'unfair. It all happened during Sri Lanka's batting in the second innings when England took up a new ball, and shifted the momentum in their favour. Veteran Sri Lanka all-rounder Angelo Mathews labelled the incident as a turning point in the game, as England pacers really came to the fore, making the best use of a firmer new cherry.

England Star Jamie Smith Breaks 94-Year-Old Record With Sensational Test Ton

England wicketkeeper Jamie Smith scored a sensational century during the side's ongoing first Test against Sri Lanka at Emirates Old Trafford, Manchester. The ton that came on the third day of the game also saw Smith scripting history as he became the youngest wicketkeeper from England to score a Test century. Smith, at 24 years and 42 days, broke a record that had stood since 1930. England's Les Ames held the previous record by scoring a Test century at the age of 24 years and 63 days, against the West Indies in Port of Spain.

Watch: Sri Lanka Spinner Prabath Jayasuriya Sparks Shane Warne's 'Ball Of The Century' Memory With Stunner

Sri Lanka cricket team spinner Prabath Jayasuriya almost recreated Shane Warne's famous 'Ball of the Century' to dismiss Harry Brook on Day 2 of the first Test match against England on Thursday. Jayasuriya came up with an absolute stunner that left Brook completely stunned and sparked comparisons with Warne's magical delivery back in 1993. The ball pitched around the middle and leg stump line before turning sharply to crash into the off-stump. Brook was batting at 56 and looked in quite a good touch but the ball completely bamboozled the England batter. The video of the dismissal went viral on social media with both fans and experts showering praise on the Sri Lanka cricketer.

'Shoaib Bashir Should Look At Nathan Lyon's Bowling,' Advises Geoffrey Boycott

Geoffrey Boycott, the former England opener, has advised young off-spinner Shoaib Bashir to learn from Nathan Lyon's bowling videos, as he believes the Australia veteran is the most superior off-spinner in the cricketing world. In seven Tests since his debut on this year's tour of India, Bashir has picked 29 wickets, but went wicketless in second innings of series opener against Sri Lanka at Manchester, as the batters used their feet to unsettle his lines and lengths. "Shoaib Bashir has talent and can get better. He is tall with a fluid high action that will create occasional bounce on hard pitches together with a natural loop. My impression is he is not clear on what line he should be bowling so he tries all sorts of deliveries searching for a wicket.

Joe Root Leads England To Victory Over Sri Lanka In First Test

Joe Root's gritty unbeaten 62 guided England to a five-wicket win in the first Test against Sri Lanka at Old Trafford on Saturday. Set 205 to win, England were faltering at 56-2 when star batsman Root came in shortly before tea on the fourth day. But together with Yorkshire team-mate Harry Brook (32) he shared a grinding partnership of 49 in 20 overs -- a far cry from England's 'Bazball' approach of recent years -- although a still slow outfield made boundaries hard to come by.

"Only 1 Pic As A Group": Virat Kohli Tells Fan In Viral Video Before Catching Train

Away from the chaos, star India batter Virat Kohli is spending time with his family in London.
