Indian women's team suffers 18-run loss to New Zealand in one-off T20 International
Senior opener and vice-captain Smriti Mandhana did not play and her absence was felt badly as India fell short by 18 runs while chasing 156 for a win. Rookie Yastika Bhatia, who opened in place of Mandhana along with young Shafali Verma, did reasonably well with a run-a-ball 26 (2x4; 1x6) but India never looked like they could chase down the target against an impressive New Zealand bowling attack. The opening stand was worth 41 runs in 6.3 overs and that was the highest partnership for India.
Watch: Viv Richards' Reaction To Jason Roy's Big Hit In PSL Is Pure Gold
Jason Roy's magnificent innings in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) match against Lahore Qalandars got the cricket fraternity talking. Legendary West Indies cricketer Viv Richards, who is a part of the Quetta Gladiators support staff was among many who gave his "approval" to the brilliant innings. Roy smashed 116 off just 57 balls to help Quetta chase down a stiff 205-run target in 19.3 overs with seven wickets in hand. Roy hit eight sixes and 11 fours in his blistering innings against perhaps the best bowling attack of PSL which included Rashid Khan, Shaheen Shah Afridi and Haris Rauf.
India vs West Indies: 'Flexible' Suryakumar Yadav not averse to rolling his arm over
Suryakumar Yadav on Tuesday said he is ready to bowl if Team India needs additional options. Of late, India have struggled to get some overs in from a sixth bowler if one or more of the five frontline bowlers have a bad day at the office. With vice-captain KL Rahul returning to the team, India have many options in the middle order, and indications are players with multiple skill-sets could be preferred over one-dimensional ones.
2nd ODI: India juggle with options in bid to seal series against West Indies
KL Rahul back, Dhawan and Shreyas cleared to train after negative testsOne of the things Rahul Dravid did during his stints as India 'A' coach, under-19 coach, or in his position as head of the coaching staff of the Rajasthan and Delhi IPL franchises, was tinkering with the teams and batting order. He always looked to put players in new situations and take them out of their comfort zones. Sometimes, the results hurt the team's cause and affected their progress in the tournament. But it helped him unearth talent and see if players were up for the fight. Players like Sanju Samson, Rishabh Pant, Ishan Kishan, Karun Nair, Hardik Pandya, Shubman Gill, Deepak Chahar, Mohammed Siraj, Shreyas Iyer are just a few names that come to mind who have been under Dravid's wings at some point. "I tell them upfront, if you come on an 'A' tour with me, you will not leave here without playing a game. I've had that personal experience myself as a kid: going on an 'A' tour and not getting an opportunity is terrible," Dravid had said.
