Fantasy gaming platform Dream11 reportedly informed the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) that it will no longer be able to be Team India’s title sponsor. The decision comes after the Promotion and Regulation of Online Gaming Bill was passed by the Parliament and is now a law after receiving the signature of president Draupadi […]

Cheteshwar Pujara has retired from cricket. Why was Shardul Thakur made captain over Shreyas Iyer? Sanju Samson has reminded everyone of what he can do with a scintillating hundred. Expect an intense India vs Pakistan match. Will India manage Jasprit Bumrah’s workload at the Asia Cup? Did BCCI resolve the MI captaincy matter between Hardik

Signing a new player in the IPL auction, and then making them their skipper might not be the best ploy always. At least this was true for KKR, who made bagged Ajinkya Rahane for INR 1.5 Cr, made him the captain, and the team failed miserably under him, finishing 8th after lifting the trophy in

Sanju Samson has responded to uncertainty over his spot as India’s opener in the Asia Cup with a brilliant century in the Kerala Cricket League (KCL). The wicketkeeper batter had batted at number six for the Kochi Blue Tigers against the Alleppey Ripples on August 23 and struggled with the bat. It looked like Samson

Many have forgotten Martin Crowe. Considered the greatest Test batter New Zealand has produced, his legacy seems forgotten.

The former Bengal keeper was a bowler’s delight,

India’s fielding coach from August 2014 to November 2021, R Sridhar, has given insight into how MS Dhoni approached wicketkeeping during his Team India days. Sridhar, who joined the National Cricket Academy (now Centre of Excellence) in 2011, saw Dhoni from up close and revealed that he didn’t do wicketkeeping practice for more than a

India’s top four for the Asia Cup opener against the UAE seems settled. Abhishek Sharma will open with vice-captain Shubman Gill. Tilak Varma and captain Suryakumar Kumar at three and four. That leaves the positions of five to eight. We don’t know who will bat at which position, but it’s safe to assume that Axar

Just about everyone is tired reading various, non-reliable reports on Sanju Samson’s IPL trade deals, either with CSK or then, with KKR. Neither seem to fructify, since it seems, the RR management are not content with the players they are getting in return. After all Samson is one of those players, when on song, can
