Kumar Sangakkara Yet To Hear From ECB About 'Exciting Prospect' Of Coaching England

Kumar Sangakkara has said it would be an "exciting prospect" to coach England in limited-overs cricket, but stressed he has yet to receive a formal approach regarding the role. The England and Wales Cricket Board are on the lookout for a new white-ball boss after they effectively sacked Matthew Mott on Tuesday, with the Australian having overseen two lacklustre title-defences at both the 2023 50-over World Cup and June's T20 World Cup. Former England batsman Marcus Trescothick has been placed in caretaker charge for September's one-day international and T20 series at home to arch-rivals Australia while Rob Key, the managing director of England men's cricket, goes in search of Mott's permanent replacement.

After ODI Tie, Rohit Sharma Gives Verdict On India vs Sri Lanka Result

India captain Rohit Sharma believes that the 231-run target set by Sri Lanka in the first ODI at the R Premadasa Stadium was "gettable". After restricting Sri Lanka on 230/8, it turned out to be a topsy-turvy chase for the Indian team. Despite the explosive start provided by Rohit (58 in 47 balls, with seven fours and three sixes), the chase became a tantalizing affair for the Indian team. However, the Indian team ended up losing wickets towards the end, which ended the game in a draw in the absence of Super Over.

India vs Sri Lanka 1st ODI Highlights: Ind vs SL Match Ends In A Dramatic Tie

India vs Sri Lanka 1st ODI Highlights: India and Sri Lanka were engaged in a thrilling tie in the first ODI of the three-match series in Colombo on Friday. Composed fifties by Dunith Wellalage and Pathum Nissanka helped Sri Lanka reach a decent 230 for 8 after opting to bat. The total was better than what it looked on the board due to conditions which are heavily loaded in favour of slow bowlers. Wellalage's 67 not out off 65 balls had seven fours and two sixes in it. Nissanka made 56 off 75 balls. Left-arm orthodox spinner Axar Patel (2/33 in 10 overs) and wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav (1/33 in 10 overs) were economical while seamers Shivam Dube, Arshdeep Singh and Mohammed Siraj also chipped in with a wicket apiece. In last 20 overs, 118 runs were scored. Chasing, skipper Rohit Sharma made 58 off 47 balls, while Axar Patel (33) and KL Rahul (31) also chipped in with contributions but couldn't finish off the game. Charith Asalanka (3/30) and Wanindu Hasaranga (3/58) were the pick of the bowlers for the hosts. (Scorecard)
