Sachin Tendulkar and Brian Lara joined Donald Bradman on Monday in having a set of gates named in their honour at the Sydney Cricket Ground, with all visiting players passing through them to access the field of play.
During his international career for the Indian cricket team, Virender Sehwag won many accolades. He was one of the few cricketers who was in the Indian team for both the 2007 T20 World Cup and 2011 World Cup. He is also one of four cricketers, apart from Don Bradman, Chris Gayle and Brian Lara, to score two triple centuries in Tests. In fact, he came to within seven runs of becoming the first to score three triple tons. For a cricketer of his stature, Sehwag could never become a full-time Indian cricket team skipper.
MELBOURNE: Ash Barty’s Australian Open singles title in January was enough to ensure the former top-ranked tennis player won Australia’s most prestigious annual sports award — despite retiring from the game less than two months later.
The maestro said that he always aimed at bat sessions in Test matches, beginning from the start of play till stumps. “The prize that I put on my wicket was invariably a 100.

The organisers of Legends League Cricket on Friday confirmed that West Indies opening batter Chris Gayle will be playing in the upcoming second edition of Legends League Cricket. Gayle owns almost every record there is, including that of the most runs (now 10,000+), most hundreds, fastest hundred, and most fours and sixes in the shortest format of the game.
Baseball is America's national pastime, but in New York, a cricket club is celebrating 150 years not out thanks to the city's large immigrant communities.
The opinions surrounding Virat Kohli's lean patch, and its possible end, have been wide-ranging. Some have criticised the former Indian cricket team captain, while others are optimistic that he will soon turn around the corner. His recent show in the fifth rescheduled Test against England at Edgbaston, has again got some critical response. He even had mild altercation with Jonny Bairtsow. Former Pakistan captain Rashid Latif has now commented that Kohli riling up rivals is a good sign for the cricketer.
