Brook’s aggressive default and his calm under pressure are the two traits built for Test cricket, since Bazball already runs on exactly that mindset. What won’t transfer automatically is the five-day patience Test captaincy demands, things like declarations, protecting a bowler across a fourth-innings spell, and reading a pitch on day four. Brook has never […]
Two bowlers going down in the same match is unlucky. It becomes something bigger when a batting lineup already struggling to chase has no reserve capable of covering the gap. Harshit Rana and Varun Chakaravarthy both tore hamstrings in the same match at Trent Bridge, and within 48 hours India had lost their fourth straight […]
India have lost back-to-back T20I series, including their heaviest defeat by runs in the format’s history, and the alarm has landed on one gap: a right-handed batter who can survive the new ball in seaming conditions. That gap has a name attached to it. Rahul has not played a T20I since the 2022 World Cup […]
India won the T20 World Cup on March 8 with the biggest margin ever recorded in a final. A hundred and ten days later, they lost their first match back, and they have not won one since. Six matches without victory, five defeats and one washout is a stretch India have never experienced in the […]
England can end India’s reign atop the T20I rankings this weekend, and it will take just one more win to do it. A win in the 5th T20I would flip the rankings and give England the No.1 spot for the first time since India lifted back-to-back World Cups. India already trail 0-3 in this series […]
Government backing turns a routine T20 fixture into a diplomatic statement, proof that cricket now doubles as soft power between Canberra and New Delhi. When two prime ministers unveil a Big Bash match together, the game stops being just sport. The reveal came at the MCG on Friday, July 10, 2026, during PM Narendra Modi’s […]
Los Angeles Knight Riders carry a narrow advantage in this TSK vs LAKR match prediction, with our projection giving them a 51% win probability against Texas Super Kings’ 49% in the 30th Match of MLC 2026. LAKR’s momentum after downing Washington Freedom by 18 runs, combined with Andre Fletcher’s in-form batting, tips the scales slightly […]
MI New York enter the 29th Match of Major League Cricket 2026 as tight underdogs in this MI NY vs WSF match prediction, with Washington Freedom holding a narrow edge on current form and head-to-head history. Our projection favours Washington Freedom to close out proceedings at Grand Prairie Stadium with a 51% win probability against […]
Shreyas Iyer has won the toss in every single T20I of his captaincy and still hasn’t found a win. Five games in charge, five results without a victory: two defeats to Ireland, a washout and a defeat against England, then a 125-run humiliation at Trent Bridge. The coin has fallen his way each time, yet […]
The 2026 slide is worse, and it isn’t close once you weigh the context. Losing consecutive bilateral series happened once before, in 2018-19, but that came from a weakened squad missing four first-choice players and recovered within weeks. This time the full-strength era has ended, a fresh captain has lost his first four completed matches, […]
One bowler with an unusual angle did most of the damage. Jai Moondra, a debutant left-armer, dismissed Sanju Samson first ball in both chases and finished the series with five wickets from just two matches. His release angle, not raw pace or turn, was what India’s top order genuinely couldn’t read. Backed by George Dockrell’s […]
A first Test series win over Sri Lanka in 23 years now comes with an asterisk. West Indies were docked two points for bowling too slowly in the second Test at North Sound, a sanction confirmed by match referee Javagal Srinath on July 8. Captain Roston Chase accepted the penalty without contest, sparing his side […]
Rawal won’t play the first Women’s Test ever staged at Lord’s, and her replacement has already proven she belongs. A stitched-up knee sustained fielding for India A in Taunton has cost the opener her second Test cap, handing Priya Punia an unexpected route into the senior side. Punia arrives on the back of 171 runs […]
