Indian cricket stalwart Virat Kohli has a supreme connection with the fans and it isn't a hidden secret. No matter where Virat goes, fans follow. Ahead of Team India's practice game against Western Australia at the WACA, Kohli obliged a number of fans with autograph requests.

India would square off against Thailand in the ongoing Women's Asia Cup on Monday. Harmanpreet Kaur had missed the previous game against Bangladesh due to a niggle and it needs to be seen whether she makes her way back into the side for the contest against Thailand. Smriti Mandhana and Shafali Verma had given good performances with the bat in hand and they were exceptional in setting up the win for India. Thailand are currently at the fourth position in the points table while India are at the top, and they would hope to continue with the winning momentum.
Pakistan cricket team has been subjected to plenty of criticism of late, especially after the manner in which they lost the Asia Cup 2022 final to Sri Lanka. While the openers -- Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan -- have been delivering on a consistent basis, the middle order looks far from settled. Talks of bringing a veteran player like Shoaib Malik back into the team, just like last T20 World Cup, have also surfaced. When Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chief Ramiz Raja was asked about the same, he had quite a unique take on the matter.
