"Sad And Disappointed I Am Not In Test Team": Veteran India Star Pours His Heart Out

India batter Hanuma Vihari is eying a Test comeback by capping off the Ranji Trophy season on a strong note. Vihari's rich vein of form has contributed to Andhra Pradesh's run in the Elite Group B. Andhra currently sits in second spot with three wins in five games. The 30-year-old batter has helped his team, scoring 365 runs in seven innings, and sits behind only skipper Ricky Bhui's tally of 550 runs for the team. His recent scores have allowed him to keep his average in domestic cricket above 50.

Australia Thump West Indies In 1000th ODI, Becomes 2nd Team Ever To Reach Milestone

Australia played their 1000th ODI match on Tuesday, becoming only the second team after India to do so in the history of the format. Australia accomplished this milestone during the third and final ODI against West Indies at Canberra. This landmark match turned out to be a memorable one for the Aussies as well, as they bundled out West Indies for just 86 in 24.1 overs and chased down the target in just 6.5 overs. With this, they also clean-swept the series 3-0. In 1,000 ODIs, Australia has won 609, lost 348, tied nine and 34 ended in no result. Their win percentage is 60.90. Besides Australia, only India has managed to play 1,000 ODI matches. In 1,055 ODIs, India has won 559, lost 443, nine have ended in a tie and 44 matches failed to produce a result. India's win percentage is 52.98.

Sachin Dhas, Uday Saharan Fifties Give India Two-Wicket Win Over South Africa, Place In U19 World Cup Final

Fuelled by splendid fifties by Sachin Dhas and captain Uday Saharan, defending champions India battled past South Africa by two wickets to storm into the final, their fifth consecutive of the ICC Under-19 World Cup on Tuesday. Dhas (96, 95 balls, 11x4, 1x6) and Saharan (81, 124, 6x4), who were India's guiding forces in the last match against Nepal with a hundred each, garnered 171 runs for the fifth wicket as India hunted down the target of 245 with just 7 balls to spare. India will face either Australia or Pakistan in the summit clash to be played at this venue on Sunday, searching for their sixth trophy in the marquee event. But the beginning of India's chase resembled a debris yard, losing four wickets for just 32 runs in the 12th over.

Karnataka captain Mayank Agarwal, who was recently hospitalised after drinking a suspicious liquid on-board a flight, has recovered and will return to lead his team against Tamil Nadu in its next Ranji Trophy Group C match in Chennai from Friday.

Former Indian opener Aakash Chopra was critical of batters Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer's recent performances, saying that time is running out for them and both have one more knock left before things takes turn for worse for the young batting duo.
