Cricket World Cup 2023: On Tight Security In India, Pakistan Team Director's 'Back In Covid Times' Take

Pakistan team director Mickey Arthur on Friday described the tight security facing his team at the World Cup in India as "stifling", leaving players feeling as if they are "back in Covid times".

David Willey - England Cricket - Cricket World Cup 2023 - England Central Contract Snub Was 'Final Nail In Coffin': David Willey - sports.ndtv.com - Ireland

Cricket World Cup 2023 - England Central Contract Snub Was 'Final Nail In Coffin': David Willey

An angry David Willey on Friday said that not being given central contract by the England board was the "final nail in coffin", making his decision to retire at 33 a lot more easier. Willey announced his international retirement amid defending champions England's disastrous outing in the ongoing World Cup. His decision follows the England and Wales Cricket Board's (ECB) decision not to offer him a central contract for the 2023-24 cycle. "That (central contract snub), for me, was, probably, the final nail in the coffin really, and it made my decision a lot easier. "But these conversations around contracts all happened before we came out, so when we joined up at Lord's I knew I was the only one that didn't have one. It was difficult," Willey told Sky Cricket. "I was upset, angry and disappointed. But I respect their vision, and don't have to agree with them." Willey on Wednesday announced that he will retire from international cricket after the end of the World Cup but insisted that his team's underwhelming performance in the showpiece has not influenced his decision.

"Disastrous Defence Of The Title": Ex-England Captain Tears Into Jos Buttler And Co For Poor Campaign At Cricket World Cup 2023

A star-studded England line-up has fallen well short of expectations in defence of the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup title they famously won in 2019. Former captain Michael Atherton identifies what has gone wrong. England's title defence is on the brink of collapsing well short of the knockout stages at the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023. A sixth defeat coming at the hands of arch-rivals Australia on Saturday, or in one of their other remaining matches against Netherlands and Bangladesh, will confirm what already seems most likely - England's title defence is over before it truly began.

Virat Kohli Gets "Best In The World" Praise From Wasim Akram, With Huge 'Sachin Tendulkar Remark'

As India took on Sri Lanka, marquee batter Virat Kohli put in another resounding display on the 22-yard strip but missed out on his 49th ODI century.

Akram, who has been working as a pundit since the start of the World Cup, lavished a big praise on Kohli, calling him 'best in the world' while also backing him to break Sachin Tendulkar's record of most ODI tons.
