Pakistan on Monday revised the schedule for next month's limited-overs cricket series against New Zealand because of expected elections in Punjab province. The series has been pushed back by one day and will now start in Lahore on April 14 instead of Karachi. Two of the three venues for the series -- Lahore and Rawalpindi -- are in Punjab, where elections are likely to be held from April 30.
Touted as one of the finest batters in Indian cricket at present, KL Rahul hasn't had things going his way for a long time. The opening batter lost his place in the Indian Test team during the Australia series and question marks remain over his place in the team in other formats too. Over the last few months, Rahul has also seen himself being severely criticised by a few former players, especially Venkatesh Prasad. When Gautam Gambhir was asked if Rahul will be ‘under pressure' at the start of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023, he brushed aside the talk.
One of the most popular cricketers in India, Sanju Samson is a man who has extensive fan-following. Though his international career is yet to reach its full potential, Samson remains a highly attractive batter for his teammates and fans. With the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 only a few days away from its commencement, Samon was spotted going all guns blazing in a practice session, executing some big hits against a spinner. As the video of Samson's hitting surfaced on social media, fans' excitement levels went up.
Mitchell Starc said he has not deviated from his game plan in over a decade and after taking five wickets against India on Sunday there seems little reason to change things as Australia ramp up their preparations for this year's World Cup.
Former Australia skipper Aaron Finch will captain the San Francisco Unicorns in the inaugural edition of the United States' new Twenty20 tournament, while South Africa's Quinton de Kock will play for the Seattle Orcas.
Mitchell Starc played a key role in orchestrating India's worst defeat in the second ODI match at YS Raja Reddy Cricket Stadium. Starc showed signs of his best when picking up the superb figures of 5/53 in a Player of the Match performance in Australia's 10-wicket romp over India in Visakhapatnam on Sunday. He now has eight scalps in total from the opening two matches of the three-game series. The pacer's ability to strike during the Powerplay has been on show in India, with four of Starc's wickets in the pivotal second match of the series coming during a blistering opening spell that put the hosts immediately on the back foot after they were sent into bat first by stand-in Australia captain Steve Smith.
Hailed as the finest T20 batter in the world by many, Suryakumar Yadav finds himself in the line of fire after being dismissed for first-ball ducks in the first and the second ODIs against Australia. It was pacer Mitchell Starc who got the better of him on both occasions. While Surya's form in ODIs is up for debate among fans and experts, veteran wicket-keeper Dinesh Karthik doesn't feel Surya's place needs to be scrutinised. In fact, it is Mitchell Starc who earned the ultimate praise from the Indian cricketer, suggesting he is the 'best white-ball pacer in the world'.
Bangladesh vs Ireland, 2nd ODI, Live: Bangladesh will be squaring off against Ireland in the second ODI of the three-match series, at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium on Monday. The hosts have taken 1-0 lead in the series after registering a victory by 183 runs in the first ODI. Shakib Al Hasan and debutant Towhid Hridoy both narrowly missed centuries but still guided Bangladesh to their highest ever ODI score of 338-8 after the tourists put them in to bat. Ebadot Hossain led the reply with 4-42 and left-arm spinner Nasum Ahmed chipped in with 3-42 to bowl out Ireland for 155 runs just shy of 31 overs. (LIVE SCORECARD)
