"We're All Unique Creatures...": Rahul Dravid's No-Nonsense Take On 'Spirit Of Cricket' Debate At World Cup

After Angelo Mathews' timed out dismissal in the Bangladesh vs Sri Lanka Cricket World Cup match, the 'Spirit of cricket' debate has again come up. In the 146-year-old history of international cricket, such an incident never happened where a batter was dismissed for failing to take strike within the stipulated time. The heated deliberations started after Angelo Mathews was declared timed out following an appeal of Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan after the Sri Lankan batter could not get ready in time to face his first ball, coming in after the dismissal of Sadeera Samarawickrama.

ENG vs PAK, World Cup Live Updates: England skipper Jos Buttler won the toss and opted to bat against Pakistan in their last league match of ODI World Cup 2023 on Saturday in Kolkata. Nothing less than a miracle will help Pakistan as they face a near-impossible task of making the semifinals by winning an unthinkable margin, while a charged-up England will look to qualify for the Champions Trophy. New Zealand's net run-rate boosting five wicket-win over Sri Lanka has virtually shattered Pakistan's semifinal hopes.

"Had The Umpires...": MCC Issues Clarification On Angelo Mathews' 'Video Proof' Against Being Timed Out

A huge controversy erupted in the ongoing Cricket World Cup earlier this week as Sri Lanka all-rounder Angelo Mathews became the first batter in the 146-year history of international cricket to be timed out. Mathews arrived at the crease after the two-minute deadline, following Sadeera Samarawickrama's dismissal, due to an equipment malfunction. The former Sri Lanka captain was left fuming as he lashed out at the fourth umpire, and also labelled Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan's act as "disgraceful".

"Keep Believing Pakistan": Michael Vaughan Trolls Babar Azam And Co. Over Their Semi-Final Hopes

Pakistan will be needing a miracle to make it to the semi-finals of Cricket World Cup 2023 when they face a charged-up England at Eden Gardens, Kolkata on Saturday. New Zealand's net run-rate boosting five wicket-win over Sri Lanka on Thursday has virtually shattered Pakistan's semifinal hopes. The 1992 champions now have to beat England by an improbable margin to make it to the knockout round. New Zealand's NRR is +0.743 while Pakistan's is +0.036, and for the Babar Azam-led side to eclipse the former to qualify as the fourth side, it has to win by around 287 runs batting first. While chasing, Pakistan need to win with 284 balls to spare. That is an impractical task.

Wasim Akram Devises 'Timed Out Plan' To Help Pakistan Seal World Cup Semi-final Spot

The Pakistan cricket team's ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 semi-final hunt is all but over. Though theoretically, Pakistan can still claim the 4th spot in the points table, the methodology isn't quite practical. With a 283-run win required to topple New Zealand via Net Run Rate, Pakistan need to put a formidable total on the board if they bat first. Wasim Akram, one of the greatest Pakistani cricketers of all time, came up with a hilarious plan that will enable Pakistan's semi-final qualification.

Left-Arm Spin, Short-Pitched Bowling: How Virat Kohli Practiced Ahead Of Cricket World Cup 2023 Game

Virat Kohli's net sessions are often an intense, well-calculated drill, a compressed version of his real-game batting. India's optional nets in Bengaluru on Friday was an encore as Kohli meticulously went about polishing his skills against short-pitched bowling and left-arm spin that he will need to negate potentially against New Zealand in the World Cup semifinals. The Kiwis are primed for a last four match against India at Mumbai on November 15 on the back of 10 points and a superior run-rate than their closest contender Pakistan. The immediate goal in front of Kohli might be disposing of Netherlands, but with due respect the Dutch are not yet in the New Zealand class.
