ICC Under-19 World Cup: How Andhra cricket adopted humble Shaik Rasheed

Shaik Rasheed, a native of his hometown Guntur in Andhra Pradesh, had played a crucial 94-run knock against Australia to help India reach the U-19 World Cup final. Second, Rasheed is a product of Andhra’s robust academy structure, which Prasad himself built as the state association’s director of cricket operations. The three academies with lodging facilities were meant to tap the talent in the heartland of the state. Rasheed is the face of the success of the structure, which is aimed at unearthing cricketing talent among less-privileged kids. “A lot of credit should go to his father Balisha. Rasheed came from a very humble background. I was told his father worked in a small pesticide shop. But he never stopped his son from dreaming big. Best part about people like Balisha is that they have a ‘nothing-to-lose’ attitude towards life,” Prasad told TOI on Thursday. Balisha struggles to communicate in any language other than Telugu. “Mera beta bahut chhote se achcha khelta. Hyderabad mein thoda khela. Financially, hum difficulty se manage karta. Abhi main SBI loans ke liye kaam karta (my son was good at cricket from a very young age. He played in Hyderabad. We barely man-aged to make ends meet. Now I work for SBI loans department),” Balisha said in broken Hindi over phone. But the jubilance in his speech couldn’t be missed.

'Outdated status quo' blocking racism reform at Yorkshire, says chairman

Yorkshire chair Kamlesh Patel claimed on Thursday reform at the troubled English county is being derailed by a group concerned that the club will be "sacrificed on the altar of Black Lives Matter". Patel took charge at Yorkshire in the wake of the Azeem Rafiq racism scandal that rocked English cricket last year. Pakistan-born Rafiq accused Yorkshire of failing to deal adequately with racist abuse he suffered while playing for the county, saying he had been driven to thoughts of suicide.

Yash Dhull - ICC Under-19 World Cup: Captain Yash Dhull learned to grab opportunities and embrace challenges at an early age - timesofindia.indiatimes.com - Australia

ICC Under-19 World Cup: Captain Yash Dhull learned to grab opportunities and embrace challenges at an early age

Yash Dhull opted to bat first against Australia at Coolidge in the U-19 World Cup semifinal on Wednesday. The surface at the venue had earned a reputation of being capricious in the two preceding matches. The bigger challenge, though, awaited Dhull when he strode out to the pitch with the scoreboard reading 37/2 in the 13th over. What followed was 33 overs of a precisely-paced ODI innings which yielded a run-a-ball 110 for Dhull. The knock set the foundation for a mam-moth victory and a place in Saturday’s final against England. Dhull’s cricket journey started with a curve ball thrown at him at the age of 11. He went to Bal Bhawan school, where he has been honed for the last eight years, for admission since the academy there could give him enough opportunities. He was turned away by the principal. “Yash pleaded for an opportunity to prove his potential. Then we decided to give him one match and told him that was his only opportunity. He was playing against 14-year-old boys and scored an unbeaten 125,” his childhood coach Rajesh Nagar fondly remembers. According to Nagar, his most endearing quality came through after that innings. “The principal gave him Rs 500 as a reward and asked him what he wanted to do with that money. Yash said he will give his teammates a treat since success in cricket depends on the teammates,” Nagar told TOI.

"Hopefully, They Will Go Back To..." Sourav Ganguly's Suggestion For Ajinkya Rahane And Cheteshwar Pujara

India batters Ajinkya Rahane and Cheteshwar Pujara have been under the scanner for their performances of late in Test cricket. Many current and former cricketers have suggested that the Indian team should drop the veteran duo, urging the management to look ahead to the future. However, BCCI president Sourav Ganguly has a different suggestion for India's Test veterans. The former India skipper feels both Rahane and Pujara shouldn't mind going back to playing domestic cricket, having played so much international cricket.
