Indian cricketer TP Sudhindra was banned by the Board of Cricket in India (BCCI) for spot-fixing. He was banned from cricket for life by the board. Now the BCCI has reduced that sentence. The BCCI reduced his sentence from life ban to 10 years and 8 months. BCCI Ombudsman Vineet Saran informed this news.

But Sudhindra’s sentence expired on February 10 due to the reduction of the punishment. So he can return to cricket again.

Meanwhile, BCCI has recently lifted a lifetime ban from another Indian cricketer. Ajit Chandiler was banned for life for spot-fixing. BCCI also reduced his sentence to seven years. In 2013, he was accused of spot-fixing in the IPL.

War of words between two former Indian cricketers over Rahul

February 25, 2023

Rahul has been at the centre of discussion and criticism for quite some time now. This time a war of words started between the two former cricketers of India regarding this current cricketer of the national team. Cricket lovers witnessed an unprecedented brawl. Although not directly, the two are engaged in a war of words on social media.

Two former Indian cricketers are Benktesh Prasad and Akash Chopra. These two former cricketers are having a war of words with Rahul. Lokesh Rahul has been out of form for quite some time. Due to this, there is talk of excluding him from the team. Sarab Benktesh Prasad has been on Twitter for the last few days to exclude Rahul. He is tweeting one after another on Twitter. And Akash Chopra replied to him. And with this, there is a war of words between them.

Standing next to Rahul, Akash Chopra taunted Prasad. On his YouTube channel, he said, “No one can do well in a moment. I am not saying that Rahul will play like Rohit overnight. But I request you to be calm. If you have something to talk about, you can say it. But please don’t sell it. You talk about statistics. “

Akash invited Prasad to come and comment on Akash’s YouTube channel. He said, “Honestly, I don’t understand anything about you. Look, there may be a difference. You should come to me on a video message. It will clarify everything. I don’t want any financial help from that video. You can call me if you want. It will be good. “

And then Prasad also responded. Addressing Akash Chopra, he wrote, “I have made everything clear. There is nothing to be misunderstood. In your 12-minute video, you repeatedly called me a campaigner, because I did not agree with you. But my arguments are very clear. On Twitter, Everything is written. You can look it up. And I don’t want to talk to you about it any more.”

It is to be noted that Rahul is looking lost in the Boarder Gavaskar Trophy which is going on in India. Rahul was not kept as co-captain in the remaining two Tests against Australia. Although the BCCI has not kept anyone else in this position. And according to board sources, this power is in the hands of Indian captain Rohit Sharma. The big question now is whether Rahul will return to form after leaving the controversy behind.

February 25, 2023

Chandika Hathurusinghe has finally come to Bangladesh after putting an end to all speculations. He has already started work by stepping in Mirpur. Of course, this Sri Lankan coach is not new to the Tigers’ den. This time, Hathurusinghe has become the coach of Shakib Al Hasan in the second phase. After starting the work, he told the press conference about his work plan and his love for Bangladesh. He said that the performance of the team Bangladesh players will be evaluated for the success of the team.

Hathurusingha’s first assignment is going to be the England series at home. In three ODIs and T20 matches each, he is getting a chance to see the players. Tiger’s head coach said he will test the players by watching this series. As well as starting after the England series, plans are underway for the upcoming ODI World Cup on Indian soil. However, all the thoughts of the head coach of the Tigers are currently around the England series. He has also started the task of observing the students in practice.

In the press conference, Hathurusinghe said, “I will monitor the players in the England series. You can’t come here and suddenly think about the team. Everything has to go according to plan. I can’t say now where I can take the team in the upcoming ODI World Cup. But I believe that the senior cricketers will perform well. Their role and responsibility in the team is big.”

He was the coach till 2017 in the first phase. After that, Hathurusinghe left the responsibility of the Bangladesh team. However, even after resigning, he said that he has been in contact with Bangladeshi cricketers and cricket related people. In this context, Hathurusinghe said, “I used to keep track of Bangladesh cricket regularly. I used to talk to many people here. There is magic for Bangladesh. So I came again.”

For now, all the attention of this Tigers coach is now on the England series. Let’s see how Hathurusingha’s disciples did in the first assignment.

Anderson shows excellence even at the age of 40

February 25, 2023

England’s star pacer James Anderson is now 41 after crossing 40 years. Usually, at this age when the cricketers are not seen playing international cricket, England’s pacer is doing the best performance. Not only is he playing well, but this pacer is also proving his superiority. This time, Anderson became the top in the ranking of ICC test bowlers. Age is just a number to him.

In the recently released Test rankings by ICC, Anderson’s name is seen at the top of the list of bowlers. Seeing that, the eyes are supposed to rise to the forehead! Unbelievable but true, this English pacer continues to conquer the field even in the twilight of his career. Anderson became the number one bowler in the day-night Test against New Zealand at Mt Manganui, taking 7 wickets.

As the number one Test bowler, Anderson set a different precedent. That is because of his age. As the oldest bowler (40 years 207 days), a bowler topped the rankings after a long 87 years. Earlier in 1936, at the age of 44 years and 2 months, Clary Grimmett became the leading bowler in Tests. But the best bowler at the oldest age (50 years and 10 months) is Bart Ironmonger.

Meanwhile, there are doubts about how long Anderson can stay at the top. Currently, the English pacer’s rating point is 866. With 864 rating points, Ravichandran Ashwin is breathing down his neck. Indian spinners are in good form in the ongoing Boarders – Gavaskar Trophy. There are still two matches left. If he can do well in those matches, Ashwin can come up at the top.

However, it is not that Anderson will sit idle. He has one more Test left in the series against New Zealand. Currently, considering the edge of his ball, the possibility of success in that test can be said to be very high. In that case, if he can pick up several wickets against the Kiwis, there is an opportunity to increase the rating points in front of the number one Test bowler. Even at this age, England’s pacer is praised for showing magic in 22 yards of the field.
