New Zealand's top batsman, Kane Williamson, is a doubt for the test series against India due to a groin injury sustained in the second test against Sri Lanka, New Zealand Cricket said on Wednesday.
There has been a lot of conversation regarding the Champions Trophy 2025 taking place in Pakistan and what that means for India's participation in the tournament. India and Pakistan have not played a bilateral series in over a decade due to political tensions and the only time the two teams face each other is during international competitions. While Pakistan did travel to India for the 2023 ODI World Cup, India have not confirmed their plans regarding the Champions Trophy. While Lahore has reportedly been confirmed as the venue for the tournament's final, a report by Telegraph.co.uk claims that the final can be shifted to Dubai if the Indian cricket team end up qualifying for the summit clash of Champions Trophy 2025.
Pakistan vs England Live Score 1st Test Day 3: England will resume at 96/1 on Day 3 of the 1st Test, trailing Pakistan by 460 runs in Multan. Zak Crawley's run-a-ball unbeaten 64 gave England a strong start after Pakistan posted a mammoth 556 in the first innings. Crawley was batting alongside former captain Joe Root, who not on 32, after skipper Ollie Pope's early dismissal. Pope had to bat up the order after opener Ben Duckett picked up an injury while taking a catch on Day 2. England need another 261 to avoid a follow-on -- a task eminently achievable on a pitch offering no help to bowlers. (Live Scorecard)
The Harmanpreet Kaur-led Indian side will lock horns with Sri Lanka in the 12th match of the ongoing ICC Women's T20 World Cup at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Wednesday. It was Sri Lanka that came out on top when these two rivals met in the final of the Asia Cup in July and the island nation will be looking for a similar result again to keep their chances alive of reaching the knockout stages.
Chasing a mediocre target of 128 runs against Bangladesh in the first T20I on Sunday, India openers Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson looked to give the team a fine start. Just as the duo looked to have settled in, Abhishek was run out for 16 runs off 7 balls. The disappointment at losing the wicket in such a fashion was visible on the batter's face. Though India still went on to win the match by a comprehensive margin, Abhishek didn't manage to evade criticism.
Another explosive pacer was added to India's ranks as Mayank Yadav made his debut in the first T20I against Bangladesh. The pacer, known to bowl over 150 kmph regularly, impressed one and all with his performance in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024. Making his debut for India on Sunday, Mayank picked up a wicket, opening his international account. However, a comment from Bangladesh skipper Najmul Hossain Shanto suggests that the touring team isn't too bothered about facing the express pacer.
Team India will look to seal the series as they lock horns with Bangladesh in the second T20I of the three-match series at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Wednesday. Suryakumar's side has already taken a 1-0 lead in the series after clinching a seven-wicket victory over Bangladesh in the first T20I match in Gwalior. India and Bangladesh have faced each other on 15 occasions in the shortest format of the game so far. India have dominated the visitors as they have managed to emerge victorious 14 times.
England cricket team star batter Joe Root scripted history by achieving a mammoth feat on Day 2 of the first Test match against Pakistan in Multan on Tuesday.

Root came into the match needing 27 runs to achieve the huge feat and he now has 5005 runs in 59 matches. Australia's Marnus Labuschagne is second with 3904 runs while his compatriot Steve Smith occupies the third spot with 3484 runs.
