Former Australia batter Stuart Law has been named coach of the Nepal men's team on a two-year contract, the Cricket Association of Nepal (CAN) said on Friday.
Former Australian batter Stuart Law has been appointed as the head coach of Nepal's men's cricket team for the next two years. He replaces Monty Desai, whose tenure ended in February after two years at the helm. Cricket Association of Nepal posted on X, “ Head coach appointed. Australian legend Stuart Law @SLaw365 takes charge of Nepal Men's National Cricket Team for the next two years!” Law brings with him a wealth of coaching experience, having worked with multiple international teams. His most recent role was with the USA men's team, where he led them to a historic T20I series win over Bangladesh and a spot in the Super Eights of the 2024 T20 World Cup. However, his stint lasted just over seven months before he was let go in October 2024.
Virat Kohli could not get going as Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) took on Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in their second game of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 season. RCB's talisman struggled, scoring 31 off 30 balls, despite the team managing a healthy first innings total of 196. The only memorable moment of Kohli's knock came when he smashed CSK pacer Matheesha Pathirana for a six and a four right after being hit on the helmet by a bouncer from the Sri Lankan.
Sri Lanka cricket team fast bowler Matheesha Pathirana was ruled out of the highly-anticipated IPL 2025 encounter against Royal Challengers Bengaluru. CSK head coach Stephen Fleming said in the pre-match press conference on Thursday that the youngster is still recovering from injury and is unlikely to take part in the match. He previously missed CSK's season opener against Mumbai Indians. “He is recovering,” said Fleming in the press conference. Pathirana impressed everyone with his bowling during IPL 2024 but his season was cut short by a hamstring injury. However, he was retained by CSK for Rs 13 crore.
Jwala Singh, the formative coach of Yashasvi Jaiswal, believes the IPL season will be key to the opener's bid to reclaim a spot in India's squad for next year's T20 World Cup. The 23-year-old Jaiswal has impressed in Tests but faces stiff competition in the T20I setup, with openers Sanju Samson and Abhishek Sharma in solid form for the national team. The T20 showpiece will be co-hosted by defending champions India and Sri Lanka from February to March in 2026. "He has played a lot of T20s for India, with many fifties at a good strike rate, but in the last 2-3 series, he was rested, I can say that.
Australia opener Usman Khawaja found himself at the centre of a controversy after he 'made himself unavailable' for Queensland's vital clash with South Australia, and then travelled to Melbourne with wife Rachel to attend the season-opening Formula One Grand Prix at the Albert Park. Initial reports stated that Khawaja had opted out of the game to keep himself fresh for the World Test Championship (WTC) final against South Africa in June. However, it was later revealed Khawaja was battling a niggle from the previous game, where he had scored a century against Tasmania.
