England's Joe Root Takes Lead As ICC Updates Test Batter Rankings

Star England batter Joe Root became the top batter as the International Cricket Council (ICC) updated player's rankings on Wednesday. "Joe Root's dream run with the bat has helped the England batter to an even bigger lead in the ICC Test Batter Rankings," ICC stated in a statement. Consecutive tons for Root led him to extend his lead atop the ICC Men's Test Batting Rankings. Root (922 rating points) now leads the chart by 63 points over New Zealand's Kane Williamson.

"Good Place To Swim": Afghanistan Captain's Dig At Noida Sports Complex Ahead Of New Zealand Test

The Afghanistan cricket team is all set to play a one-off Test against New Zealand from September 9-13 in Greater Noida. The Afghan side started their one-week preparatory camp at the Noida Sports Complex, but according to a report by The Indian Express, the start of their practice was far from ideal. Heavy rain in the Delhi NCR on Thursday meant that the Afghans had a hard time in training properly.

Former CSK Pacer Appointed New Zealand Bowling Coach For India Test Series

New Zealand have roped in former pacer Jacob Oram as their bowling coach ahead of the gruelling three-Test away series against India, a much-anticipated showdown in the ongoing World Test Championship cycle. The imposing right-arm pacer, who will take charge on October 7, has played three Cricket World Cups and four T20 World Cups and brings a wealth of experience to the Blackcaps coached by Gary Stead. New Zealand will play the first match of the series against India in Bengaluru from October 16-20, followed by Tests in Pune (October 24-28) and Mumbai (November 1-5).

No Rashid Khan As Hashmatullah Announced Afghanistan Skipper For Test vs New Zealand

All-rounder Rashid Khan is a notable omission in Afghanistan's 20-member preliminary squad for the one-off Test against New Zealand, to be played in Greater Noida next month. Rashid's absence from the September 9-13 contest comes as a surprise as he has been Afghanistan's highest wicket-taker in the format, having taken 34 wickets in five Tests at an average of 22.35, including four fifers. He played his last Test for Afghanistan in 2021 against Zimbabwe in Abu Dhabi, where he took 11 wickets.

Devon Conway, Finn Allen Opt Out Of New Zealand Cricket Contract, Focus On Franchise Cricket

Top-order batters Devon Conway and Finn Allen on Thursday turned down New Zealand central contracts to pursue a career in franchise cricket, announced the country's cricket board. However, Conway will be available for New Zealand's international assignments through a casual agreement similar to the one Kane Williamson signed with NZC recently. It means that Conway will play international matches unless they do not overlap his franchise commitments. “Firstly, I'd like to thank New Zealand Cricket for their support through this process,” Conway said in a video posted by Blackcaps on 'X'.

New Zealand Include William O'Rourke, Ben Sears For Afghanistan, Sri Lanka Tests

New Zealand included promising seamers Will O'Rourke and Ben Sears on Monday in their Test squad to face Afghanistan and Sri Lanka as the Black Caps look to bounce back from their T20 World Cup debacle. New Zealand play Afghanistan next month in a one-off Test in Noida, India, before facing Sri Lanka away in a two-Test series in late September. It will be the Black Caps' first cricket since crashing out of the T20 World Cup in the group stages last June following a shock defeat to Afghanistan.

'Hardik Pandya Has Got Much More Talent Than Ben Stokes': Ex-New Zealand Star

Hardik Pandya's skill sets are equivalent to premier England all-rounder and captain Ben Stokes but the mercurial Indian needs to show more consistency, reckoned former New Zealand cricketer Scott Styris. Recently, Suryakumar Yadav was preferred over Pandya as India's captain in T20Is for the upcoming series against Sri Lanka, as chief selector Ajit Agarkar "wanted someone who was likely to be available more often." "This champion all-rounder (Pandya) has got as many skills as anyone. He's probably in a similar ability-zone as someone like Ben Stokes. He's got much more talent than that (his recent performances)," Styris told PTI Videos in an interview.

Afghanistan To Play One-Off Test Against New Zealand In Greater Noida

The Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB) confirmed on Saturday that their men's team will play a one-off Test match against New Zealand from September 9–13 in Greater Noida. This will be the first time that Afghanistan will play a Test match against New Zealand, with the fixture becoming the side's third game in the longer format this year. Afghanistan has previously won three Test matches, each against Ireland (2019), Bangladesh (2019), and Zimbabwe (2021). “We are delighted to host a quality New Zealand Test team for the first time in our cricketing history. This is a testament to the hard work we have put in through numerous discussions and meetings with different boards on the sidelines of the various ICC Board Meetings.”
