Glenn Maxwell smashed an unbeaten 32 off nine balls to take Australia to an easy five-wicket win over Zimbabwe in the first of three one-day internationals at Townsville's Riverway Stadium on Sunday. Chasing 201 for victory, the Australians reached their target with more than 16 overs to spare to take a 1-0 lead in the three-match series. All-rounder Cameron Green ripped out the Zimbabwe tail with 5-33 as the visitors collapsed from 185-4 to 200 all out, a total that was never going to be enough against a full-strength Australia.
Sent in to bat in blustery overcast conditions, the 13th-ranked tourists were bowled out in 47.3 overs for 200. The total never threatened Australia's experienced batting unit, which accelerated to 201-5 with 99 balls to spare. Sloppy fielding allowed Zimbabwe's fragile top-order to make a promising start, easing to 61-1 by the first drinks break with Innocent Kaia caught and bowled for 17 by Mitchell Marsh.
TOWNSVILLE : A maiden five-wicket haul by seamer Cameron Green on Sunday set Australia up for a five-wicket victory in the first one-day international against Zimbabwe in Townsville, which is hosting the first series between the sides Down Under since 2004.
India captain Rohit Sharma has a reputation of coming up with funny responses in press conferences and has often left the room in splits with his quick wit. On the eve of India's Asia Cup 2022 clash against arch-rivals Pakistan, Rohit attended a press conference and was asked about India's opening combination for the much awaited clash. In recent times, India have experimented with the likes of Rishabh Pant and Suryakumar Yadav at the top of the order, while Virat Kohli has in the past opened with Rohit Sharma.
The wait is almost over as India and Pakistan will clash against one another in Group A of the ongoing Asia Cup 2022 on Sunday at the Dubai International Stadium. Rohit Sharma and Babar Azam would look for their teams to get off to a winning start in the tournament. Ahead of the match, the entire focus is on Virat Kohli, who has not scored a ton in international cricket for more than 1,000 days. Having been rested for the series against West Indies and Zimbabwe, it would be interesting to see how the right-handed batter performs. Pakistan are without Shaheen Shah Afridi while India are without Jasprit Bumrah.
India start their 2022 Asia Cup campaign with a match against arch-rivals Pakistan at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Sunday, August 28. For India, it will be an opportunity to avenge their 2021 T20 World Cup loss to Pakistan. The side had suffered a 10-wicket defeat at the hands of their Asian neighbours at the world event last year. On Sunday, the Rohit Sharma-led team will look to play its A game in a bid to win the high-octane clash.
