Indian medium pacer Deepak Chahar took a leaf out of Ravichandran Ashwin's book on Monday as he 'Mankaded' Zimbabwe opening batter Innocent Kaia at the non-striker's end on the very first delivery of the home side's chase in the 3rd ODI at Harare. Chahar ran in and before delivering the ball he removed the bails with Kaia way out of his crease.
Pakistan head coach Saqlain Mushtaq on Monday said losing injured Shaheen Shah Afridi for the upcoming Asia Cup is a "big setback" but backed his bowling unit to deliver the goods in the continental tournament. Saqlain backed Nassem Shah to perform in the Asia Cup after the right-arm pacer shone bright in the three-match ODI series against the Netherlands in Rotterdram. "Obviously, losing Shaheen is a big setback to us before the tournament and for the England series because he is someone who has proven himself at the top level and done well against the best batsmen," Saqlain said.
Bangladesh stripped head coach Russell Domingo of his role overseeing the Twenty20 side and told him to focus on Test and one-day international cricket, just days before the Asia Cup. Bangladesh Cricket Board president Nazmul Hassan said that former Indian cricketer Sridharan Sriram, named last week as the technical consultant, will look after the T20 side. "Russell Domingo won't be part of the T20 set-up. He will be with ODIs and Tests," Nazmul told a press briefing in Dhaka. "There's no 'head coach' for the T20 side," he added.

Ireland made a winning start in their one-day international series against the Netherlands with a comfortable five-wicket victory in Amstelveen.
Shubman Gill, since the time he made his senior international debut in January, 2019, has been touted as a special talent. Right from his U-19 days, Gill's shot-making and calm approach made him stand out on the field. However, after 11 Tests and eight ODIs, the one thing that was missing from Gill's repertoire was an international ton. Before coming into the third ODI against Zimbabwe on Monday, Gill had scored four half-centuries in Tests and three in ODIs. On Monday, he got to his first international ton off just 82 balls. He ultimately finished on 130 off 97 balls.

Shubman Gill was all class on way to his maiden international hundred, taking India to 289 for eight in the third and final ODI against Zimbabwe here on Monday. Gill (130 off 97 balls) shared a 140-run stand with Ishan Kishan (50 off 61) who eventually got run out in a rather unusual fashion. Opting to bat for the first time in the series, India did not have the most fluent of starts as they struggled to 63 for one in 15 overs.
