"Illiterates Of Cricket": Former Pakistan Captain Slams Strike-Rate Experts After Bangladesh Loss

Pakistan suffered an embarrassing 2-0 Test series loss at the hands of Bangladesh on Tuesday. It was the side's first-ever series defeat in the format at the hands of the Bangla Tigers. The Shan Masood-led side was already subjected to harsh criticism ever since it lost the first Test, and a series whitewash only added to its trouble. Many experts, including former batter Salman Butt, lashed out at the side's performance. However, Butt criticized those experts, who asked the Pakistan batters to improve their strike rate in Test cricket.

"He Is Insecure": Michael Vaughan Gives Brutal Verdict On England Captain

Former England captain Michael Vaughan has said he would be happy to be proven wrong on stand-in skipper Ollie Pope's leadership credentials. At the same time, Vaughan stuck to his view that Pope is an insecure person as a leader. Pope made scores of one and 17 in England's 190-run win over Sri Lanka at Lord's. So far in the series, he has amassed only 30 runs in four innings. Questions have been raised over Pope being fidgety while batting and criticism has increased over his leadership abilities not being up to the mark.

2nd Test: Gus Atkinson Stars As England Seal Series vs Sri Lanka

Gus Atkinson continued his Lord's love affair by taking five wickets as England thrashed Sri Lanka by 190 runs in the second Test on Sunday to take an unassailable 2-0 lead in a three-match series. Sri Lanka, set what would have been a new Test record fourth-innings winning total of 483, were dismissed for 292 after tea on the fourth day despite fifties from Dinesh Chandimal (58), Dimuth Karunaratne (55) and captain Dhananjaya de Silva (50). Fast bowler Atkinson, who scored his maiden first-class hundred in England's first-innings 427, led the attack with 5-62. Player-of-the-match Atkinson secured a fifth mention on the dressing room honours boards in just his second Test at Lord's after taking 12 wickets on England debut against the West Indies in July. (

Asked About Breaking Sachin Tendulkar's Record, Joe Root's Answer Wins Internet

England great Joe Root became the all-time highest-scoring player for his country at the age of 33, as he registered his 34th hundred in the second Test against Sri Lanka. There's been a significant shift in the way England play cricket at present, with Brendon McCullum's Bazball bringing about a change that demands a more attacking style. Yet, Root has managed to continue his exemplary form, pile up more runs, and reach milestones that others can only dream of. Sitting on the 7th spot of top run-getters in Test cricket with 12,377 runs to his name, Root has a realistic chance of beating the numero uno Sachin Tendulkar in the list.

Joe Root set an England record of 34 Test centuries when he reached three figures for the second time in the second Test against Sri Lanka at Lord's. Root, who made 143 in the first innings to move level with the previous England record of 33 hundreds held by the retired Alastair Cook, went to a century on Saturday's third day when he cut Lahiru Kumara for the 10th four off 111 balls faced. It meant Root surpassed his fellow former England captain's mark. It is Root's 145th Test compared to Cook's career tally of 161 matches.
