Kane WIlliamson Equals Sachin Tendulkar, Ricky Ponting And Virender Sehwag In Elite List

Star New Zealand batsman Kane Williamson slammed a brilliant double century to put the Kiwis on top in the second Test match against Sri Lanka at the Basin Reserve in Wellington. After playing a match-winning knock of 121 in the first Test, Williamson continued his brilliant run of form by scoring 215 off 296 deliveries and in the process, he took his tally of double centuries in Test cricket to six. As a result, he is currently tied in fifth spot in all-time double centurions list along with legends like Sachin Tendulkar, Virender Sehwag and Ricky Ponting. Sir Donald Bradman tops the list with 12 double centuries in Tests while former Sri Lanka skipper Kumar Sangakkara is second with 11.

Angelo Mathews surpasses Sanath Jayasuriya, Claims Massive Feat Against New Zealand

Veteran batter Angelo Mathews overtook former skipper Sanath Jayasuriya and became just the third Sri Lankan player to have scored 7000 Test runs as the island nation made a good start to the first Test against New Zealand in Christchurch. Mathews scored a valuable 47 on the opening day at Basin Reserve, with Sri Lanka reaching 305/6 at stumps to keep their slim hopes alive of reaching June's ICC World Test Championship final against Australia. Sri Lanka need to clinch a 2-0 series sweep over the Kiwis in New Zealand and rely on India not defeating Australia in the concurrent Test in Ahmedabad to reach the World Test Championship decider and they gave themselves every chance of doing so on Thursday after they were sent into bat first by Black Caps captain Tim Southee.

Bowler Is Not Villain Here: MCC Calls For 'Calm' On Non-Striker Leaving Ground Early

The World Cricket Committee of the MCC, the custodians of the laws of the game, wants to see the non-striker being run out by the bowler normalised at all age-group levels besides calling for "calm" on the contentious subject. Last month, the MCC issued a clarification to the wording of the law following an incident in which bowler Adam Zampa attempted to run out non-striker Tom Rogers in a Big Bash game in January. The clarification involved changing the wording of Law 38.3 to deliver better clarity and dispel "misconceptions" on it.

Tributes for South African umpire Rudi Koertzen after he dies in car accident

Koertzen, 73, was known as 'Slow Death' because of the time it took for him to raise a finger to indicate a batsman's dismissal. He stood in a then-record 331 international matches, including 108 Tests, between 1992 and his retirement in 2010. Pakistan umpire Aleem Dar, who has since surpassed Koertzen's record, described Koertzen's death as "a very big loss". "I stood in so many games with him," said Dar.
