Samson in, Abhishek out?

Abhishek Sharma didn’t register a 4th consecutive duck but departed for another low score against South Africa. Will India now drop the opener? India’s assistant coach Ryan ten Doeschate was asked the question in Ahmedabad. He didn’t rule out the possibility of bringing Sanju Samson in, but also talked about backing those who’ve been in the side for the last 18 months.

Why did Washington Sundar play?

Why was Washington Sundar picked over Axar Patel? Ryan ten Doeschate stated that the management felt the left-handed batters in South Africa’s side were the biggest threat to India. That’s why Sundar was selected. Moreover, he was expected to bowl in the powerplay, but his services weren’t needed after Jasprit Bumrah and Arshdeep Singh’s incredible start.

What were India & Tilak Varma doing?

Sunil Gavaskar thinks India were overconfident while chasing 188 against South Africa. The Men in Blue didn’t learn from the Proteas, especially how Dewald Brevis and David Miller batted. The Indian legend also expressed disappointment with Tilak Varma. Gavaskar doesn’t understand why Tilak ran down the wicket on the second ball he faced when his job was to consolidate after Ishan Kishan’s dismissal.

Kohli’s record goes down

West Indies broke several records against Zimbabwe. They posted the second-highest T20 World Cup total, courtesy of Shimron Hetmyer, who scored the fastest fifty by a West Indian in the tournament’s history. Sherfane Rutherford surpassed Virat Kohli in an all-time record, as Zimbabwe lost by 107 runs.

With nine wickets down for just 64, Royal Challengers Bengaluru were staring down the barrel of humiliation. In a rain-shortened 14-over clash against Punjab Kings at the Chinnaswamy, the memories of their infamous 49 all-out threatened to resurface. But Tim David had other plans. His unbeaten 50 off 26 balls wasn’t just a rescue act—it was a declaration. Tim David’s best IPL knock On a night when RCB’s other ten batters combined for just 44 runs, David stood tall to hammer 50 runs off 26 alone. Remember he was picked up for just Rs 3 crore at the IPL 2025 mega auction! Bargain stuff. The surface wasn’t easy, and Punjab’s bowlers made life tougher. Marco Jansen and Yuzvendra Chahal bowled unchanged spells, choking RCB’s top and middle order with smart variations. The scoreboard read 36/5 at one point, with batters falling to mistimed slogs and mistreated short balls. But amid the chaos, David brought calm and calculation. RCB were 74/9 when David took strike for the final over. Wha...
