"Attitude Like Viv Richards": Ex-India Spinner Makes Peculiar Comparison For Virat Kohli's Captaincy

Former India spinner Laxman Sivaramakrishnan has named Virat Kohli and MS Dhoni as best captains in Test and white-ball formats respectively. Kohli had led India in 68 Tests and guided them to 40 wins with 11 draws and 17 losses. He is still the most successful captain of the format for India with a 58.82 win percentage in his tenure. Under his leadership, India maintained the top spot in the ICC Test rankings for a record 42 months. On the other hand, Dhoni donned the captain's hat in 200 ODIs from 2007 to 2018 and led the side to 110 victories including the World Cup title in 2011. He had a record 55 per cent win record in the format, surpassing Mohammad Azharuddin's record of 51.72 win percentage.

Who Is Allah Ghazanfar: 18-Year-Old Ex-Kolkata Knight Riders Spinner Creating History For Afghanistan

Afghanistan cricket team spinner Allah Ghazanfar scripted history with a brilliant six-wicket haul to guide his side to a convincing 92-run victory over Bangladesh in the first ODI encounter in Sharjah on Wednesday. The 18-year-old finished with figures of 6 for 26 in 6.3 overs as Bangladesh went from 132/3 to 143 all out while chasing a target of 236 runs. These were the best bowling figures in an Afghanistan-Bangladesh ODI match, bettering Shakib Al Hasan's 5-29 at Southampton in 2019.

How Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Others Fared Against Spinners At Home This Year

Worrying signs were all on display after India's batting unit found itself exposed on their home turf against the overseas spinners after the Rohit Sharma-led side endured a historic Test series whitewash against New Zealand. With an unprecedented 3-0 Test series whitewash on home soil, 'Master Blaster' Sachin Tendulkar stepped forward and admitted that maybe it is time for India to have an "introspection." Apart from the first innings of the opening Test, which was played under a gloomy sky in Bengaluru, New Zealand pacers didn't have much of an impact in the remainder of the series.

Series win over India eclipses my perfect 10, says NZ spinner Patel

Ajaz Patel said helping New Zealand wrap up a 3-0 series sweep in India on Sunday was even more special than his spectacular outing at the Wankhede Stadium three years ago when the Mumbai-born spinner picked up 10 wickets in one innings.

Mumbai Test Poised For Exciting Finish As Indian Spinners Reduce New Zealand To Nine Down

Exploiting the spin-friendly conditions, Ravindra Jadeja and R Ashwin chiselled through the New Zealand batting line-up to bring India to a stage from where they can force a face-saving victory in the third Test which is now headed for an intriguing finish. New Zealand ended day two at 171 for nine with an overall lead of 143, which might look small but even a target in the vicinity of 150 will pose serious challenge for the Indian batters, considering the fast deteriorating Wankhede track. This was after half-centuries from Shubman Gill (90) and Rishabh Pant (60) and a crucial 38 not out from Washington Sundar gave India a slender 28-run lead as they put on board 263.

'Spoke In Urdu To Deceive English Bowlers': Pakistan Spinner Sajid Khan's Huge Revelation

Pakistan's experienced off-spinner Sajid Khan found a unique way to play all sorts of tricks on England players during the ongoing third Test in Rawalpindi.

While Sajid's success with the ball comes down to his angle of spin and the flight of the delivery, his fortune with the bat is a different story.

Former England cricketer Nasser Hussain lauded Pakistan for a remarkable turnaround in fortunes to record a 2-1 series win against Three Lions at home, saying that the team found a "kryptonite" to England's 'Bazball' approach to cricket. England's attacking and positive brand of 'Bazball' cricket faced yet another setback as they once again succumbed to spinners in the subcontinent, with spinners Noman Ali and Sajid Khan shined with stunning bowling spells to hand Three Lions a nine-wicket loss in the third Test at Rawalpindi to secure a 2-1 series win.

Pakistan's experienced spinner Sajid Khan left the press room in splits with his response as he was asked about the 'scare' he was giving to England batters in the third Test of the series at Rawalpindi. Noman Ali and Sajid Khan worked as a pair to decimate the England batting unit in the Test, producing the same sort of partnership that the legendary Wasim Akram and Waqar Younis used to. When the same aspect was put in front of Sajid in the post-match press conference on Saturday, he gave an epic reply.
