Battling an injury-ravaged body, it was not easy for Pandya to return to the game. His career was in jeopardy but he made a grand comeback by leading Gujarat Titans to their maiden IPL title and that too in their debut season. He also led India against Ireland and on Thursday night shone bright with both bat and ball to script India's win in the first T20 against England.
Jos Buttler tipped his hat to a rampant India side as he conceded England were merely 'outplayed' during a 50-run defeat in the first of three T20 internationals at The Ageas Bowl on Thursday night.
As Middlesbrough continue working to add to their squad this summer, manager Chris Wilder has told his current players this is their chance to step forward ahead of the new season. The Boro boss is looking to create competition for places throughout his squad this summer, and wants his players to stake their claim in the summer friendlies.
Former England captain Michael Vaughan feels out-of-form India batter Virat Kohli should take "three months break" from cricket, and spend some time with his family. Kohli, who has not scored a century in nearly three years, managed scores of 11 and 20 in the recently-concluded fifth Test against England at Edgbaston in Birmingham. Highlighting Kohli's poor returns with the bat of late, Vaughan said that the 33-year-old batter needs a sabbatical from cricket, which will help him re-invent himself.
Captain Nicholas Pooran was at his devastating best in blazing the West Indies to a comfortable five-wicket win over Bangladesh in the third and final T20 International at the Guyana National Stadium on Thursday.
For three and a half decades, Sachin Tendulkar has seen Sourav Ganguly in various avatars -- a precocious teenager, a talented India contender, a stylish batter, a leader and a busy administrator. But for India's greatest ever batter, what has stood the test of time is their friendship which is still intact and solid, long after they have both stopped playing international cricket. As the BCCI president turns 50 on Friday, his "opening partner" opened up with PTI, sharing many insights into their friendship and how he looked at Ganguly as a future captain when he himself was leading India.
BCCI president Sourav Ganguly, who is credited for putting fire in the belly of Indian cricketers with his no-holds-barred approach, celebrates his 50th birthday today, July 8. Fondly called ‘Maharaj’ and 'Dada' by most, Ganguly thrust young guns in the line of fire to turn them into braver cricketers, putting his complete trust in the youth. One of the most memorable instances of this was of course India's unforgettable 2002 Natwest Series triumph, in which India beat England by 2 wickets in the final at Lord's. Ganguly's subsequent shirt ripping act on the Lord's balcony is one cricket visual which will never be forgotten.
Right-handed batter Shreyas Iyer has loads of talent but over the course of last two years, he has developed a weakness against the short ball and the opposition uses that tactic whenever the batter comes out to the crease. Shreyas' KKR coach Brendon McCullum was seen given signals to England bowlers to bowl short balls at him and the batter was dismissed through that ploy in both the innings of the recently-concluded Edgbaston Test which India lost by seven wickets.
