England announces squad for series-decider against South Africa

England squad for third Test

England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) have announced their men’s squad for the upcoming third and final Test against South Africa that will start next Thursday (September 8) at the Kennington Oval in London.

The selection panel made up of captain Ben Stokes, head coach Brendon McCullum and managing director Rob Key, have decided to keep their 14-member group that played in the second Test, which the hosts won by an innings-and-85-runs at Emirates Old Trafford in Manchester.

Notably, the upcoming third and final Test is the series decider as both sides have won a match each. In the opening game, South Africa registered a victory by an innings and 12 runs.

Not to mention, England’s unchanged squad came as no surprise because captain Stokes was super impressed after the clinical display by his troops in the second Test.

“To come back from last week’s disappointment at Lord’s to put in the performance we have this week, it obviously gives us a lot of confidence back and sets the series up nicely for the last game at the Oval,” Stokes had said after the second Test.

“We completely forgot about that performance [at Lord’s]. The way we batted, bowled and fielded in this game was the benchmark of the standards we set,” he added.

England squad for third Test:

Ben Stokes (c), James Anderson, Jonny Bairstow, Stuart Broad, Harry Brook, Zak Crawley, Ben Foakes (wk), Jack Leach, Alex Lees, Craig Overton, Matthew Potts, Ollie Pope, Ollie Robinson, Joe Root.

Chasing a humungous 193, Hong Kong never really got the momentum as they kept losing wickets at regular intervals. The Nizakat Khan-led side eventually reached 152/5 to lose the contest by 40 runs. Babar Hayat top-scored with 41 from 35 balls, including three fours and a couple of sixes.

Earlier, Virat Kohli’s much-anticipated half-century and Suryakumar Yadav’s explosive knock guided India to a formidable total in their assigned 20 overs.

Kohli smashed an unbeaten 59 off 44 balls, including one four and three sixes. Suryakumar, on the other hand, remained undefeated on 68 from just 26 deliveries with the help of six fours and as many maximums.

Kohli and Suryakumar added an unbeaten 98-run stand for the third wicket to help India post 192/2 on the board. For Hong Kong, Mohammad Ghazanfar (1/19) and Ayush Shukla (1/29) bagged one wicket each.

Former India skipper Virat Kohli added another feat to his glorious list of achievements after he stepped on the field in India’s opening game in the ongoing Asia Cup 2022 against arch-rivals Pakistan on Sunday. It was Kohli’s 100th game in the T20 Internationals (T20Is) for Team India.

Kohli became the first Indian to achieve the epic milestone of playing 100 matches in all three formats of the game. Overall, the Indian batting superstar is the second player in world cricket to accomplish the landmark after legendary New Zealand cricketer Ross Taylor.

Notably, Taylor retired from international cricket earlier this year. On Monday (August 29), the former Black Caps captain took to social media and congratulated Kohli for his stunning achievement and welcomed the Indian superstar to the elusive club. Taylor mentioned that he is looking forward to watching Kohli play for a number of years.

“Congratulations, @imVkohli, on your 100th T20 game for India. Welcome to the club. I look forward to watching many more of your games in the years to come!” Taylor wrote on the micro-blogging website Twitter.

Notably, Kohli played his 100th Test match against Sri Lanka earlier in the year and appeared in his 100th ODI against West Indies in the 2013 Champions Trophy. With an average of 57.68, the 2011 World Cup-winner amassed 12344 runs in ODIs and 8074 runs in 102 Tests. Similarly, in the shortest format, Kohli has 3343 runs to his credit at an average of 49.89.

India beat Pakistan in Asia Cup 2022

Team India defeated Pakistan in a thrilling contest by five wickets in the ongoing Asia Cup 2022 at Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Sunday.

Chasing 148, India had a terrible start as they lost opener KL Rahul in the very first over for a golden duck. Then, two veterans, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, joined hands to steady the ship.

The duo added 50 runs for the second wicket before Pakistan yet again came back in the game, removing both Rohit and Kohli in quick successions. Soon, Suryakumar Yadav was also dismissed as India were reduced to 89/4 in 14.2 overs.

Before Pakistan bowlers could capitalise further, Ravindra Jadeja and Hardik Pandya partnered to calm things down for India. The pair stitched a match-winning 52-run stand to take the game to the final over, where Jadeja got dismissed for a well-made 35. Hardik (33 no), however, kept his end alive and smashed a brilliant six to finish the game in grand style.

Earlier, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Pandya shined with the ball to dominate the proceedings right from the word go. Bhuvneshwar (4/26) picked up a four-wicket haul as he completely outclassed the Pakistan batters, while Hardik (3/25) launched his short-balls barrages to bag three scalps under his kitty.

Young star Arshdeep Singh also took two wickets while conceding 33 runs in 3.5 overs. For Pakistan, opener Mohammad Rizwan top-scored with 43 from 42 balls, including five boundaries.

Afghanistan beat Sri Lanka in 1st match of Asia Cup 2022

An all-round performance from Afghanistan helped them register an eight-wicket victory over Sri Lanka in the opening match of the ongoing Asia Cup 2022.

Opting to bowl first, the Mohammad Nabi-led side completely dominated the proceedings right from the beginning. The Afghan bowlers gave no chance to Sri Lanka batters, bundling them out for a mere 105 in 19.4 overs.

Fazalhaq Farooqi was the pick of the bowler for Afghanistan, taking a three-wicket haul for just 11 runs in 3.4 overs, including a maiden. Apart from the left-arm speedster, Mujeeb Ur Rahman (2/24) and captain Nabi (2/14) bagged a couple of wickets each.

In response, Afghanistan chased down the target successfully in 10.1 overs, with eight wickets in hand. Rahmanullah Gurbaz played a breathtaking 18-ball 40 runs knock with the help of seven boundaries, including four sixes. Opener Hazratullah Zazai stayed unbeaten on 37 off 28 balls to take the team home.

“The boys played really well, especially the fast bowlers. When we decided to bowl first, they used the pitch so well. We were just discussing to hit the right lines, and if we get a bit of swing, it will be of use for us. We have a lot of confidence after such a game, hopefully, we can do well next game as well,” said Nabi in the post-match presentation.

‘I am 35, not 75’: Sheldon Jackson after India A, Duleep Trophy selection snub

Sheldon Jackson

After the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced India A squad for the New Zealand series at home, Saurashtra batter Sheldon Jackson expressed his disappointment as the seasoned campaigner was yet again overlooked by the selectors.

Jackson averages 50+ in 79 First Class matches but hasn’t received a major India call-up till now. Apart from not being picked in India A squad, Jackson was also ignored by the West Zone for Duleep Trophy.

Two international players – Kuldeep Yadav and Prasidh Krishna – have been named in the 16 member India A squad led by Priyank Panchal. Similarly, veteran Indian batter Ajinkya Rahane was named captain of the West Zone for the Duleep Trophy.

Meanwhile, Jackson – who plays for Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the Indian Premier League (IPL), couldn’t control his emotions and said he should be picked on the basis of his performances and not age.

“I have a right to believe and dream that if i have performed for 3 continuous season, i may get picked on the basis of my performances not age, tired of hearing this that I’m a good player and performer, but I’m old. I’m 35, not 75 (sic),” tweeted Jackson.

The 35-year-old was in fine form during the recently-concluded Ranji Trophy, amassing 313 runs in 3 matches, including four half-centuries. He has scored over 2000 runs in the last three seasons of domestic cricket and was rewarded with an IPL debut for KKR earlier this year. However, the wicketkeeper-batter couldn’t really perform to his potential in the cash-rich league.

In nine IPL matches across two seasons, Jackson has only scored 61 runs at an average of a little over 10.

India batter Shubman Gill is all set for his maiden stint in the County Championship in England as he has joined Glamorgan for the remainder of the 2022 season, subject to visa clearance.

The club hasn’t yet made any official announcement, but according to reports, if all goes well, Shubman will be the seventh Indian player to be signed by a county team in the ongoing season.

Overall, the right-handed batter will be the third Indian to feature for Glamorgan in County Championship after former India cricketers Ravi Shastri (1987-91) and Sourav Ganguly (2005).

Notably, Shubman is coming off a superb form in the recent ODI series against West Indies and Zimbabwe, where he piled up 205 runs at 102.50 average and 245 runs at 122.50 average, respectively.

When it comes to the longest format, the 22-year-old has experience of playing 11 Test matches in which he has scored 579 runs at an average of 30.47. His last red-ball game came against England in Birmingham in July this year, where he scored 17 and 4 in India’s defeat.

Shubman has a noteworthy record in the domestic arena. So far, he has featured in 12 first-class matches for his home team Punjab in the Ranji Trophy, where he has scored 1176 runs at an average of 65.33.

Speaking about Glamorgan, they are currently third in the Division Two table with five wins in 10 matches. In the remaining games, they will compete with Worcestershire from September 5, Middlesex from September 12, Derbyshire from September 20 and Sussex from September 26.

Jemimah Rodrigues ruled out of The Hundred

India women star Jemimah Rodrigues will miss the remainder of the ongoing The Hundred tournament as she has been ruled out of the competition due to her fractured wrist.

Rodrigues, who was plying her trade for Northern Superchargers in the 100-ball tournament, entered the season fresh from a silver-medal-winning performance with the Indian cricket team at the recently concluded Commonwealth Games in Birmingham.

The right-handed batter began the season in grand style when she belted 51 from 32 deliveries against Oval Invincibles before being dismissed for 2 against London Spirit.

Notably, Rodrigues had sustained a blow to her right wrist during India’s Commonwealth Games match against Barbados. She continued to play the multi-team event with a taped wrist and finished with 146 runs – the fifth-most in the competition.

Rodrigues will be replaced by Gaby Lewis, who is available for only two games because of Ireland’s three-match ODI series against the Netherlands.

“Northern Superchargers batter Jemimah Rodrigues has unfortunately been forced to end her season in The Hundred due to injury. Despite suffering defeat in the Superchargers’ opening match against Oval Invincibles, the India international offered a glimpse of what she is capable of by scoring 51 runs off 32 balls. Republic of Ireland international Gaby Lewis will now be stepping in for her,” read a statement on the official website of The Hundred.

Speaking of her Superchargers call-up, Lewis said: “I am excited to be returning to play in the Hundred once again, after getting a taste for the competition last year. It will be a juggle of commitments between Ireland and the Superchargers, but I am keen to ensure I can contribute to both teams as fully as I can.”

Ishan Kishan breaks silence on his exclusion from India’s Asia Cup squad

Ishan Kishan

Left-handed batter Ishan Kishan has opened up about his exclusion from the Indian squad for the upcoming Asia Cup, scheduled to begin on August 27 in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).  The Rohit Sharma-led India will commence their campaign against arch-rivals Pakistan on August 28 at the Dubai International Stadium.

Kishan, who was overlooked for the Asia Cup 2022 after Virat Kohli and KL Rahul’s return to the Indian side, last represented his national team in the T20I game against West Indies, where he scored 11 off 13 deliveries. So far in 2022, the southpaw has displayed consistency with the bat, being India’s second highest-run scorer in the shortest format with 430 runs at an average of 30.71.

Kishan has smashed three half-centuries with a best individual score of 89.  The youngster, in his recent interview, said that he is positively taking this setback and would work harder to make selectors pick him next time.

“I feel that what selectors do is fair. They put a lot of thought while selecting players as to who should be given the opportunity and where,” Kishan told ANI.

“It is a positive for me because if I am not selected, I will work harder and score more runs. When selectors will have confidence in me, they will obviously keep me in the team,” he added.

India squad for Asia Cup 2022:

Rohit Sharma (c), KL Rahul (v/c), Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant (wk), Deepak Hooda, Dinesh Karthik (wk), Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Yuzvendra Chahal, Ravi Bishnoi, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Arshdeep Singh, and Avesh Khan

Standby Players: Shreyas Iyer, Axar Patel, Deepak Chahar.

Known as Bangladesh’s run-machine, Litton Das is missing from the squad as he has been ruled out of the multi-team event due to a hamstring injury,. Further, Shoriful Islam, Munim Shahriar and Najmul Hossain Shanto were also not considered for the Asia Cup squad.

”Shakib al Hasan is the captain till the upcoming ICC T20 World Cup,” BCB cricket operation chairman Jalal Yunus told reporters.

”He admitted that he made a mistake (signing the deal with Betwinner News), and he said that won’t make any further mistake, and we are hopeful,” he added.

Bangladesh’s Asia Cup squad:

Shakib Al Hasan (captain), Anamul Haque, Mushfiqur Rahim, Afif Hossain, Mosaddek Hossain, Mahmudullah, Mahedi Hasan, Mohammad Saifuddin, Hasan Mahmud, Mustafizur Rahman, Nasum Ahmed, Sabbir Rahman, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Ebadot Hossain, Parvez Hossain Emon, Nurul Hasan, Taskin Ahmed

New Zealand defeated West Indies in the thrilling first T20I of the ongoing three-match series at Sabina Park in Kingston, Jamaica, on Wednesday.

Put to bat first, Black Caps captain Kane Williamson shined with the bat to propel the visitors to a formidable total. Williamson smashed 47 off 33 balls with the help of six boundaries. Similarly, opener Devon Conway also sizzled with a 29-ball 43-run knock.

Apart from the duo, all-rounder James Neesham chipped in with some valuable contributions down the order to help New Zealand post 185/5 in their allotted 20 overs. Neesham scored an unbeaten 33 from 15 deliveries, including three fours and a couple of sixes.

In response, the match went down to the wire, where the hosts fell 13 runs short of the target to lose the contest. Shamarh Brooks with 42 at the top and unbeaten 31 and 27 from Romario Shepherd and Odean Smith, respectively took West Indies really close but couldn’t manage to get over the finish line.

Mitchell Santner was the star with the ball for the tourists, taking a brilliant three-wicket haul while conceding only 19 runs in his quota of 4 overs.

Virat Kohli returns; Jasprit Bumrah ruled out as BCCI announces India’s T20I squad for the Asia Cup 2022

Jasprit Bumrah, Virat Kohli

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), on Monday, announced the men’s squad for the upcoming Asia Cup 2022, starting August 27 in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

Superstar Virat Kohli has returned to India’s T20I squad after a break of more than a month following the conclusion of the England tour on July 17. Similarly, opener KL Rahul has also made a comeback as vice-captain after being unavailable in all of India’s fixtures since the end of IPL 2022 in May.

Notably, Rahul first suffered a groin injury and then underwent surgery for a sports hernia. Afterwards, the Bengaluru-born tested positive for Covid-19 and was ruled out of the West Indies tour.

The major setback for India is that their frontline pacer Jasprit Bumrah, was not part of the squad as the fast bowler has been ruled out of the tournament due to a back injury. Further, Harshal Patel was also unavailable for selection owing to a rib injury.

In the absence of Bumrah and Patel, the Rohit Sharma-led side will go into the multi-team tournament with only three frontline fast-bowling options in the form of Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Arshdeep Singh and Avesh Khan, while Hardik Pandya would serve as the fast-bowling all-rounder.

India Squad for Asia Cup 2022:

Rohit Sharma (c), KL Rahul, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant, Dinesh Karthik, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, R. Ashwin, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Arshdeep Singh, Ravi Bishnoi, Avesh Khan, Deepak Hooda, Yuzvendra Chahal

Stand-by players: Shreyas Iyer, Axar Patel, Deepak Chahar
