Australia got their tactics and team selection all wrong in Thursday's World Cup defeat by South Africa and the five-times champions must quickly get their act together if they are to avoid a group-stage exit, said former skipper Michael Clarke.
Pakistan skipper Babar Azam on Wednesday surpassed India's star batter Virat Kohli to register a new world record. Playing against Bangladesh in the Super 4 match at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore, Babar scored 17 runs off 22 balls before becoming a victim of Bangladesh pacer Taskin Ahmed. However, the knock helped the right-handed batter reach 2000 ODI runs as captain. Babar did that in only 31 innings beating the world record holder Virat Kohli, who had achieved it in 36 innings.
David Warner's hopes of choosing the manner of his retirement from international cricket have dimmed after the Australian opener's twin failures in the defeat by England at Headingley and Mitchell Marsh's successful return to the side.
The second Ashes Test between England and Australia has become the talk of the town due to the bizarre dismissal of Jonny Bairstow by wicketkeeper Alex Carey. During the 52nd over on Day 5, Bairstow wandered out of the crease, thinking the ball was dead. Carey took advantage of the situation and threw the ball onto the stumps. After Bairstow was declared out by the third umpire, English pacer Stuart Broad came to bat and criticised Carey for not keeping up the "spirit of the game". However, the netizens did not take Broad's words lightly and called him a hypocrite by reminding him of the 2013 Ashes series.
Former Australian cricket team skipper Michael Clarke was extremely critical of England fast bowler Ollie Robinson and said that he needs to concentrate on his bowling more than on-field antics. Robinson received a lot of flak for giving a send-off to Usman Khawaja during the first Ashes Test in Edgbaston. The visitors were able to power through on the final day of the match and register a brilliant two-wicket victory. In a recent interaction, Clarke said that Robinson is currently playing for England because bigger names like Jofra Archer and Chris Wood are out of action while suggesting that he needs to prove himself more before losing his temper on the field.
The Indian team under the leadership of Rohit Sharma was outplayed by Australia by 209 runs at the Kennington Oval in London at the ICC World Test Championship final. Rohit Sharma's captaincy was criticized and as a batter too he could score only 15 and 43 in the two innings. Despite India failing to clinch ICC T20 World Cup 2022 and ICC WTC final 2023, Australia's World Cup-winning captain Michael Clarke has backed the skipper Rohit.
Former Australia captain Michael Clarke has advised India skipper Rohit Sharma and the team management to back underfire player KL Rahul. It is worth noting that Rahul is going through a lean patch with the bat and that saw him being dropped for the third Test against Australia. The player who was part of the first two matches could score only 38 runs across three innings. Shubman Gill, who is having a good run with the bat currenly, has replaced him in the playing XI. However, Clarke is of the opinion that the team management should have shown more faith in the player.
Former Australia captain Michael Clarke has weighed in on the Harmanpreet Kaur run out in the Women's T20 World Cup. While saying that Meg Lanning's team is the best sports team in Australia in the last decade, he says that the run out was "unlucky." India suffered a heart-breaking loss against Australia in the semi-final of the Women's T20 World Cup. Chasing a 173-run target, India were in a strong position when skipper Harmanpreet Kaur got run out.
