Remember the jelly bean incident that happened during the 2007 Trent Bridge Test between India and England? If not, here's what happened. Team India pacer Zaheer Khan had pointed his bat towards Kevin Pietersen who was standing at the slips, after he noticed some jelly beans being thrown on the wicket. Over the course of the last few years, it has been revealed that jelly beans were indeed lying there on the surface and it was done just to have some "banter" in the middle.
The second edition of Legends League Cricket is currently being played in India. After hosting matches in Kolkata, Lucknow, and Delhi, the action has now shifted to Cuttack. The crowd turnout has been really good at all the centres and it is safe to say that just like the first edition, the second is also destined for success. Ahead of the Legends League match between Bhilwara Kings and Gujarat Giants, the League's co-founder and CEO, Raman Raheja spoke to NDTV on how he sees the success of the tournament and what is the roadmap ahead.
Wicket-keeper batter Sanju Samson is likely to be named vice-captain of the Indian cricket team for the three-match ODI series against South Africa with many senior players expected to be rested ahead of next month's ICC T20 World Cup. India will take on South Africa in a three-T20I series followed by a three-match ODI series from September 28 to October 11. The Indian squad for the T20I series has already been announced and the Indian selectors are likely to finalise the squad for the ODI series in the next few days.
Defending targets in T20 Internationals has been a grey area for the Indian team but batting coach Vikram Rathour surprisingly cited "dew" being a factor which was not the case when the team played in the recently concluded Asia Cup. Since the Super 4s of the Asia Cup, India have played six T20Is and won three of them while losing three. However, all the three defeats -- against Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Australia -- have come while defending targets. Contrary to Rathour's claims, none of the Indian team members, who spoke to the media after the defeats against Pakistan and Sri Lanka in Dubai, blamed it on the dew factor making defending difficult.
Both the 23-year-old’s two sixes – a ramp shot over slips off Pakistan pacer Faheem Ashraf, and a superb pickup shot off pacer Bradley Currie over mid-wicket -were classy shots. It was Gill’s 8th century in his 38th First-Class game. Glamorgan shared a video on twitter of Gill reaching his century, captioning it: “Century!!! Shubman Gill makes a maiden Glamorgan century. 123 balls, 12 fours, 2 sixes. Well batted, Shubman.”
