Gillingham chairman Brad Galinson saluted the team’s weekend performance and the new approach to playing, which he’s dubbed ‘Clem Ball’.
'Bazball' has changed the dynamics of England's batting approach in Test cricket and their Kiwi coach Brendon McCullum is very clear that irrespective of outcome, his team won't deviate from its aggressive tactics against India in the five-Test series, where most tracks will offer substantial turn. The term 'Bazball', coined after McCullum's nickname 'Baz' and the attacking philosophy that he endorses, has also found its pride of place in 'Collins dictionary'.
England test coach Brendon McCullum may not be a fan of the word, but "Bazball", the term used to describe the team's swashbuckling approach to test cricket since he took charge in 2022, has been added to the Collins online dictionary.
England can still breathe life back into their Cricket World Cup campaign, red-ball coach Brendon McCullum said as he urged the defending champions to stick with their style of play despite suffering a 69-run defeat by Afghanistan.
Indian cricket team skipper Rohit Sharma surpassed West Indies legend Chris Gayle to became the batter with the most number of sixes in international cricket across all formats during the Cricket World Cup 2023 match between India and Afghanistan in New Delhi on Wednesday. Rohit slammed three massive sixes to take his tally to 554 and in the process, went past the mammoth tally of Gayle (553) in Tests, ODIs and T20Is combined. Former India captain MS Dhoni is the only other Indian cricketer in the Top-10 list as he has slammed 359 sixes in his career while representing India and Asia XI.
Simon Cook has revealed a message he’s received from England managing director and former team-mate Rob Key upon being named Kent’s new director of cricket.
Former Pakistan pacer Shoaib Akhtar was one of the most intimidating fast bowlers of his time. Known as the "Rawalpindi Express", Akhtar terrorised opposition batters with his sheer express pace for nearly two decades. Even after his retirement, several players, including Sachin Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag, admitted that Akhtar was by far the most difficult bowler to tackle. In a recent interaction, Akhtar revealed how he threatened former New Zealand captain Brendon McCullum for charging down the track on his bowling.
His two-year contract will expire at the end of ODI World Cup but head coach Rahul Dravid's future will be followed keenly in case the Indian team lifts the coveted trophy. It is a foregone conclusion that Dravid will be one of the fall guys if India cannot at least make it to the title clash as a mere semi-final appearance wouldn't be considered good enough. BCCI may search for a coach again and it will be interesting to see if 'The Wall' will be keen on a renewal of contract -- partial or full -- in case Board supremo Jay Shah offers a fresh deal.
