Kolkata Knight Riders on Wednesday appointed India batter Shreyas Iyer as their new captain for the upcoming Indian Premier League after having bought him for a whopping Rs 12.25 crore at the recently-concluded mega auction. Iyer, who had captained Delhi Capitals to their only IPL final back in 2020, was released after the 2021 season and it was an open secret that KKR, who were supposed to replace Eoin Morgan, were in need of a new captain.
She is well aware of the pressure of playing against arch-rivals India in the Women's ODI World Cup opener against India next month but Pakistan captain Bismah Maroof hopes that the marquee match will inspire girls across the border to make a career in the sport. India are set to face Pakistan in their opener of the World Cup on March 6 at Tauranga, New Zealand. The quadrennial event will be held from March 4 to April 3 across six cities in New Zealand. “Pakistan vs India is indeed a great stage for any player to establish her credentials, but at the end of the day, it is a cricket match that has to be won by executing the basics right and keeping thing simple," Maroof, who is making a comeback after motherhood, told PTI Bhasha from Queenstown, New Zealand.

England white-ball captain Eoin Morgan, who had captained the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) last season, remained unsold despite multiple rounds of bidding. Speaking on his YouTube channel, former Pakistan captain Salman Butt said he was surprised to see the likes of Morgan failing to get any buyer.
