Asia Cup 2022, India vs Pakistan: Battle for bragging rights resumes in storied rivalry

In recent years, India have had an answer to every question posed by Pakistan in multilateral events, right up until last year's T20 World Cup, when it was the men in green who triumphed instead in dominant fashion. TOI traces past contests and looks at how history might impact today's match...One hundred and fifty two for no loss in 17. 5 overs. Certain numbers hurt you like no other if you are an Indian cricket tragic. It was Pakistan's uncharacteristically composed riposte to an underwhelming 151/7 by India in the 2021 T20 World Cup opener in Dubai's Ring of Fire. Heavy dew during their chase was an able ally for the men in green as they beat their dispirited and stunned rivals. Skipper Babar Azam and deputy Mohammed Rizwan underlined the domination that was triggered by Shaheen Shah Afridi's quick, lethal twin strikes that consumed Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul.

India vs Pakistan: Best of the Asia Cup

Whether played over 50 or 20 overs, the biggest attraction of this tournament has always been the high-octane Indo-Pak rivalry. A look at five memorable battles...KHANNA THE SURPRISE HERO (SHARJAH, 1984)A top-class Pakistan team was tipped to beat India when the inaugural Asia Cup took place in April, 1984. But a fine knock by wicketkeeper-batsman Surinder Khanna (56 off 72 balls) helped India get to 188-4 in 46 overs on a difficult wicket. Roger Binny and Ravi Shastri then helped bowl Pakistan out for just 134 in 39.4 overs. Khanna effected two stumpings too. Scores: Ind 188-4 in 46 overs (Surinder Khanna 56, Sandeep Patil 43, Sunil Gavaskar 36*) beat Pak 134 in 39. 4 overs (Mohsin Khan 35; Roger Binny 3-33, Ravi Shastri 3-40) by 54 runs

England vs South Africa: No panic for SA captain Dean Elgar, but tough decisions to be made ahead of third Test

The tourists were bowled out for 151 and 179 and lost inside three days, which followed their own innings and 12 run win at in the first Test at Lord’s last week. With the deciding fixture at The Oval starting on Sept. 8, there is plenty of time for reflection. "You can go into panic mode when these things happen, but the coach (Mark Boucher) and I are not those types of guys," Elgar said. "We are here to win a Test series and we're still in a position to do that."

2nd Test: Ben Stokes hails 'benchmark' win as England level series against South Africa

Old Trafford on Saturday. Victory by an innings and 85 runs, with more than two days to spare, brought England level in this three-match series at 1-1, following South Africa almost as dominant innings-and-12-run triumph at Lord's last week. England have won five of their six matches since Stokes succeeded Joe Root as skipper but this one was built on Test-match fundamentals rather than setting up a crowd-pleasing run-chase in the fourth innings. Stokes's men were on top from the start in Manchester, reducing South Africa to 77-5 before lunch on the first day after Proteas skipper Dean Elgar -- almost obliged to bat first having included a second spinner, Simon Harmer, -- won the toss. The Proteas were eventually dismissed for a meagre 151 in their first innings.

Asia Cup: Virat Kohli brings focus back on mental health issues

World Cup has hit a hurdle as Virat Kohli has struggled to regain form. As the team management and selectors endure anxious times and fret over taking a tough call on Kohli, he has decided to talk about his problems and conceded he was "faking intensity over the last few months." In an interview to Star Sports, Kohli said: "For the first time in 10 years, I didn't touch my bat for a month. I came to realize that I was trying to fake my intensity a bit recently," Kohli stunned the cricketing world early on Saturday morning. "I was convincing myself that "no, you had the intensity'. But your body was telling you to stop. The mind was telling me to take a break and step back."
