Star India Virat Kohli broke numerous records on Friday after he brought up his 76th century against West Indies in the ongoing second Test at the Queen's Park Oval, Port of Spain. It was the 500th international match for the former India skipper, who went on to smash his 29th Test ton and first overseas hundred after a hiatus of almost five years. Kohli reached the 100-run mark in the 91st over of India's innings on Day 2, after he smashed a boundary off Shannon Gabriel's delivery.
As the likes of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli age, the perennial question of 'who will be their long-term replacements?' continues to engulf the Indian cricketing fraternity. While there isn't any clarity over the length of Rohit and Kohli's career, former India batter Wasim Jaffer feels the likes of Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill can take Indian cricket forward after the talismanic duo of Rohit and Kohli is no longer with the team.
Team India is enjoying its dominance over West Indies in the ongoing two-match Test series. The Rohit Sharma-led side began its 2023-25 World Test Championship cycle on a winning note after thrashing the hosts by an innings and 141 runs in the first game in Dominica. In the first innings of the second Test, India posted a whopping total of 438. While the likes of Virat Kohli and Yashasvi Jaiswal have shone in the series so far, it has been a poor outing for Ajinkya Rahane, who scored 3 runs in his only innings in the first Test and followed it with another poor knock of 8 runs.
A livid India women's captain Harmanpreet Kaur did not mince words in criticising the umpiring during the tied third ODI against Bangladesh on Saturday, terming it "pathetic". India were bowled out for 225 in 49.3 overs after Bangladesh posted their highest total in the 50-over format against India, scoring 225/4 batting first with Fargana Hoque (107) recording the first-ever ODI century for her country. India opener Smriti Mandhana scored 59 at the top while middle-order batter Harleen Deol made 77, but India collapsed from 191 for four to 225 all out, losing the last six wickets for a mere 34 runs and had to settle for a tied three-match ODI series 1-1.

Courtesy the result, the teams shared the trophy after a 1-1 result. The match also saw India captain Harmanpreet Kaur's angry rant against the umpire after getting dismissed. On the fourth ball of the 34th over, Harmanpreet was dismissed by Nahida Akter after getting caught by Fahima Khatun.
India A will be keen to assert their dominance in the Emerging Asia Cup tournament when they face Pakistan A in a potentially high-voltage summit clash in Colombo on Sunday. Generally, it is tough to pick a favourite in the matches between India and Pakistan, but in this instance, the former stands out as the clear front-runner. India will also draw confidence from the fact that they have already beaten Pakistan in the league stage.
India botched up an easy run chase as a tenacious Bangladesh rallied to tie the final ODI as well as the three-match series in Mirpur on Saturday.
