First Time In History: Rohit Sharma Sets Three World Records In One Day, Smashes Babar Azam's Feat

Rohit Sharma is called 'Hitman' world over. On Monday, the Indian cricket team captain showed once again why he is revered so much as he made a star-studded Australian bowling line-up look pedestrian in a T20 World Cup Super 8 match in St Lucia on Monday. Against the likes of Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood, Rohit hit eight sixes and seven fours to score 92 off just 41 balls. At the end of his innings, Rohit's strike-rate stood at 224.39.

Qudrat Ka Nizam In T20 World Cup Again? How Rain In Match Against India Can Knock Out Australia

As India and Australia gear up for a T20 World Cup 2024 Super 8 clash in St. Lucia, it isn't just the men from Down Under who are keeping their fingers crossed, hoping for clear skies in the high-profile contest. Australia need to beat India if they are to keep their qualification hopes in their own hands, while India are practically through to the next round, courtesy of their excellent Net Run Rate. But, a loss for Australia directly benefits the Afghanistan team who are to take on Bangladesh next. But, amid this tense situation in the Group 1 of the Super 8s, the rain gods in St. Lucia could play spoilsport and decide the teams' semi-finals fate on their own.

India vs Australia: "Send Him Back To 3" - Social Media Explodes As Virat Kohli's Dismal Run Continues

Indian cricket team star batter Virat Kohli's horrible form at the T20 World Cup 2024 continues as he was dismissed for a duck during the Super 8 match against Australia on Monday. Kohli faced just five deliveries before he completely miscued a shot off the bowling of Josh Hazlewood and the catch was completely comfortably by Tim David at wide mid-on. Kohli has not performed well in the competition after he was chosen as Rohit Sharma's opening partner with just 66 runs in 6 matches. This was his fourth single-digit score of this year's competition and social media was abuzz following his dismissal.

Australia Star Usman Khawaja Hails "Inspirational" Afghanistan Amid 'Human Rights' Controversy

Australia Test stalwart Usman Khawaja expressed his sadness at Afghanistan not being able to play in Australia, as he congratulated Afghanistan's historic 2024 T20 World Cup win over his own country. Earlier in the year, Cricket Australia had cancelled a bilateral series against Afghanistan over the country's "marked deterioration" in the treatment of women and children, following the rise of the Taliban regime. While the Afghanistan cricketers remain puzzled over the decision, Khawaja stated that the Afghanistan side was an inspiration.

India and Australia take on each other in a must-win clash at Saint Lucia on Monday. India is at the top of Group One with two wins in two games and have four points. They won their previous game against Bangladesh by 50 runs.

'Wish To See David Warner End On A High': Australia Batter Usman Khawaja

He has had the best seat at the other end of the 22 yards watching David Warner in full flow and no wonder Usman Khawaja wants Australian team to give his opening partner a fitting farewell with a T20 World Cup triumph. Warner is set to retire from international cricket once Australia's campaign in the ongoing T20 World Cup concludes, which Khawaja loves to believe will only be after winning the coveted final. “As a friend, I'd love to see him (Warner) finish on a high. He's been playing some really good cricket. It's been really nice to see. You can tell he's just enjoying being out there. He's playing pretty relaxed. So he should. Yeah, it would be good to see," Khawaja told PTI Videos in an interview ahead of Australia's last Super 8s match against India.

Australia In Defence Mode After Decision To Rest Mitchell Starc Backfires

After a defeat to Afghanistan in the T20 World cup Super 8 match, Australia head coach Andrew McDonald and captain Mitchell Marsh defended the 'tough move' of including spinner Ashton Agar in the playing XI in place of star pacer Mitchell Starc, citing the need for a spin on the sluggish surface. Australia now find itself in a precarious position ahead of their final Super Eight fixture against India in St. Lucia on Monday. In their previous match on a slow, turning pitch in St. Vincent, Australia opted to include Agar as a second specialist spinner alongside Adam Zampa, leaving out Starc.
