"Wife Ka Mood...": Irfan Pathan's Cheeky Take On Changing Nature Of India vs Australia Perth Pitch

Former all-rounder Irfan Pathan had a hilarious take on the way the Perth Test strip changed in just two days of play during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series opener between India and Australia. On the opening day, the Perth surface was covered in grass with pacers of both sides enjoying movement and bounce, a paradise for the quicks. But on the second day, the outlook of the turf completely changed. The movement from the surface became minimal as cracks slowly started appearing on the strip.

Sanjay Manjrekar Pinpoints Major Flaw In Virat Kohli's Batting: "Very Concerned About..."

Star batter Virat Kohli flopped with the bat in the 1st innings of the ongoing 1st Test against Australia in Perth.

As Kohli's barren patch continued, former India batter Sanjay Manjrekar pointed out major flaw in the star batter's technique. He feels Kohli has been struggling against the shorter delivery of late.

Angry Sunil Gavaskar Demands Apology From Cricket Website. Reason Is Very Grim

Sunil Gavaskar, former Indian cricket team skipper, is absolutely angry with a 'fake' article that has been published in his name.

After India bowlers restricted Australia to just 104 in the first innings of the first Test in Perth, it was time for openers Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul to take the team ahead. The left-right combination played sensible cricket, with some able assistance from Australia's sub-par fielding, and took India to a 150-plus total. The Indian duo looked super confident, with Yashasvi Jaiswal taking a special liking for Mitchell Starc. One one of the occasions, Jaiswal even mocked Starc, saying: "It's coming too slow."

'Can Become Multi-Format Bowler For India': Harshit Rana's Youth Coach's Massive Praise

Harshit Rana's meteoric rise might come as a surprise to many but not his coach in his formative years, NS Negi, who has seen the strapping youngster mature into a pacer with the "potential to become a multi-format bowler for India". Starting as a net bowler with Gujarat Titans in 2022, Harshit played a key role in guiding Kolkata Knight Riders to IPL glory in 2024, and announced his arrival on the international stage with a dream debut in the opening Border-Gavaskar Test at Perth, where he returned figures of 48 for 3 in the first innings.

It is also the third lowest-score for Australia in Tests at home since 2000.
