India look to lock middle-order, sixth bowler ahead of T20 World Cup

Though a few fast bowlers will be rested over the course of six games before the World Cup -- three matches against South Africa to follow after the Australia series -- India have a full strength squad at their disposal to finalise combinations. The T20 format is a lot about being flexible but as he mentioned ahead of the first T20, India skipper Rohit Sharma would like to get 'all the answers' from his players before the flagship ICC event in Australia.

On this day in 2007, Yuvraj Singh became first T20I player to smash six sixes in one over

Yuvraj Singh became the first-ever T20I batter and second batter in international cricket after South Africa's Herschelle Gibbs (ODI) to smash six sixes in an over, against England at Durban during the ICC T20 World Cup 2007. It was the Super Eight phase of the World Cup. After losing their first matches, both India and England desperately needed a win to boost their chances in semis. India were dominating their second Super Eight match against England, at 171/3 in 18 overs after choosing to bat first. After exchanging a few heated words with all-rounder Andrew Flintoff, Yuvraj was all fired up, all set to unleash his hard-hitting game against England.

Ranking college football's 33 unbeaten teams after three weeks

Week 3 of the college football season did little to disrupt the sport's on-field hierarchy.

In that way, this was about as orderly a weekend as you'll see.

Saurabh Kumar stars as India 'A' beat New Zealand 'A' to win series

No confusion on KL Rahul's role in T20 World Cup

Virat Kohli’s century, while opening the innings against Afghanistan in the Asia Cup, might have triggered speculations of his possible elevation as opener in the upcoming T20 World Cup. But for Rohit Sharma, Virat remains the third opener and it will be KL Rahul partnering him at the top of the order during the showpiece event, starting October 16 in Australia. For quite some time, KL Rahul’s tempered-down approach in T20 format has attracted criticism and Kohli’s return to form with his first international century in three years, has only added fuel to fire to the debate on the opening slot. However, in a media interaction ahead of the three-match T20I series against Australia starting here on Tuesday, Rohit said that there’s no confusion on the Karnataka right-hander’s role as he is a “very important player for India.”
