India vs England: Umran Malik “Definitely An Exciting Prospect”, Says Captain Rohit Sharma | Cricket News
Rohit Sharma had missed the rescheduled fifth Test against England after testing positive for COVID-19, but he has now recovered and hence would be leading the side in the first T20I of the three-match series on Thursday in Southampton. For the first game, the likes of Virat Kohli , Rishabh Pant , and Jasprit Bumrah would not be available, but the senior pros would be back from the second game onwards. Rohit addressed a press conference on Wednesday and he spoke on a variety of topics, including the preparation of the team, the fifth Test which India lost by seven wickets, and "exciting prospect" Umran Malik . "My recovery from COVID-19 was good, eight-nine days have passed since the time I tested positive for COVID. We have seen that every player who tested positive for COVID-19 responded differently, I do not know what will happen going forward, but right now I am feeling fine. I started training three days back so that is why I decided to play the first T20I game.

England vs India: Five Reasons Why Jasprit Bumrah-Led Side Lost To Ben Stokes’ Men At Edgbaston
England vs India, Edgbaston: The India team would be more than disappointed with the result of the Edgbaston Test where the visitors possibly won more sessions and were bossing the game for the most part of the Test match. With a lead of 132 runs, the visitors were in the driver’s seat till the second session of the third day’s play and suddenly from there on everything went downhill for the Indian side. Here’s a look at five possible reasons why India lost the Edgbaston Test vs England: Poor batting display: It would be fair to say that the batting let India down in the fifth Test. India were in all sorts of trouble in the first day of the Test and if it wasn’t for Rishabh Pant’s heroics with the bat and Ravindra Jadeja’s stubborn century, the match might have been over well before the fifth day. It wasn’t much different in the second innings either. Once again, the batting failed to come to the party. Cheteshwar Pujara did his job and Pant continued his good run with the … [Read more...] about England vs India: Five Reasons Why Jasprit Bumrah-Led Side Lost To Ben Stokes’ Men At Edgbaston
“Like Keeping Your Ferrari Parked In Garage”: Ex-India Selector On Edgbaston Test Playing XI | Cricket News
From being in an advantageous position in the fifth rescheduled Test against England in Edgbaston, the Indian cricket team could not hold their nerve and lost the game by seven wickets. England rode on unbeaten centuries from Joe Root and Jonny Bairstow to register their highest successful chase in Tests of 378 runs. After the loss, experts have opined that the team composition could have been different. Former Indian cricket team player and ex-national selector Jatin Paranjape said that Ravichandran Ashwin could have been picked in the XI. "I don't think so. You can understand why they picked Bumrah as captain; the powers that be must have thought that Bumrah as a captain is a good choice. Sometimes it is better to err on the side of caution, and that in itself turns out to be a better decision," Jatin Paranjape said in an interview to senior sports journalist Jamie Alter . "I can understand why they played Shardul, because he had done well in the Test match at The … [Read more...] about “Like Keeping Your Ferrari Parked In Garage”: Ex-India Selector On Edgbaston Test Playing XI | Cricket News
The England litmus test to India’s World Cup readiness
INDIA TOUR OF ENGLAND, 2022 by Kaushik Rangarajan • Last updated on Share Tweet Rohit Sharma has been medically cleared to play the first T20I. © Getty It is the reality of the looming World Cup that India are close to being back at full strength for a T20I series that starts two days after a gruelling Test match. Well almost. Jasprit Bumrah, Ravindra Jadeja and Virat Kohli will be available only from the second game of the series but that aside, the rest of the squad has been hard at work with a sense of urgency that build-ups to bilateral T20Is otherwise lack in non-World Cup years. India, who have played four T20s (vs Ireland, Northamptonshire and Derbyshire) in the last 10 days, have won 13 of the 15 completed T20Is since tumbling out of the group stages of last year's World Cup, most while not fielding their top players. It's a formidable record in a fickle format, one that is representative of both their baseline … [Read more...] about The England litmus test to India’s World Cup readiness
England vs India, Edgbaston Test: India Thought They Would Appear And Things Would Just Happen
As the Edgbaston Test came to an end, giving England a fine win that gave them a 2-2 verdict in the five-Test series, one was left wondering what the result would have been, had India played the final Test of the series last year along with the rest, when they had the momentum. But other things take precedence in Indian cricket, one assumes. Nevertheless, even when the side went into the Edgbaston Test, there seemed to be a little bit of an assumption that all they needed to do was to appear, and things would just happen. Couldn’t have been more wrong, as the Indian team brutally got to know. India lost the Test, or began the process of losing, on Day 3 afternoon, when, in spite of a definite edge in proceedings, the batters just could not translate that into anything close to a challenge. It can’t be that the Indian think tank was not aware of the English batters’ ability to run down scores they made it clear time and again against New Zealand so the need to score really … [Read more...] about England vs India, Edgbaston Test: India Thought They Would Appear And Things Would Just Happen

Wimbledon 2022: Nadal survives injury and Fritz scare to enter semifinals as he keeps career slam hopes alive
In the semifinals on Friday, the second-seeded Spaniard will face Australia's Nick Kyrgios who beat Chile's Cristian Garin 6-4, 6-3, 7-6 (7-5) in an another last-eight encounter. Nadal's hopes of landing a first calendar slam remain alive after he dug deep to edge Fritz in a fifth-set tie-break and reach the semifinals. Competing at this stage of a Grand Slam for a 47th time - compared to a first time for Fritz - Nadal battled through the pain barrier to prevail at SW 19. Nadal, who was regularly checked over by his physio, will now face the temperamental Kyrgios as he looks to add to the Australian Open and French Open crowns already won this year. Fritz had not dropped a single set en route to the final eight, but facing Nadal initially appeared a challenge too far when the Spaniard broke his serve in the opening game. However, the number 11 seed responded brilliantly by whittling off five games in a row - breaking Nadal twice - to take the first set and lay down a … [Read more...] about Wimbledon 2022: Nadal survives injury and Fritz scare to enter semifinals as he keeps career slam hopes alive
