Scott Boland, Michael Neser and Brendan Doggett stand behind Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood as Australia enters an unprecedented year of cricket. Cummins is 33, Hazlewood 35, Starc 36 and Boland 37, and all four carry serious injury histories. Twenty Tests in twelve months, against Bangladesh, South Africa, New Zealand and India, will test that […]

Team India keeps trusting Dhruv Jurel because his numbers away from Tests tell a different story than his last six innings. His first-class average sits at 55.17, and he arrives off a stunning 141 not out for India A at Galle weeks ago. His Test returns since a maiden century against the West Indies have […]

Weatherald walks out in Darwin knowing this is the closest thing to a home Test he will get, and the toughest audition his career can survive. Born in the city, he averages just 22.33 from five Tests, and this series may decide whether he tours South Africa next. He scored 183 at this same ground […]

Australia’s batting numbers have dropped, but that doesn’t make this Bangladesh series a soft target. Steve Smith tops the current group at 46.90, a mark that would have been mid-table during the 2000s. Only four batters in the squad have cleared 40 since 2022, yet Pat Cummins’ side keeps winning regardless. Darwin and Mackay host […]

Brar does, and the case is stronger than a single warm-up game suggests. He took two wickets and made 36 not out against the Sri Lanka Cricket XI in Colombo, while Prasidh Krishna managed one wicket in the same match. The bigger factor sits a month earlier: Brar took ten wickets in an unofficial Test […]

Not easily, but not hopelessly either. Bangladesh arrive without Nahid Rana for the entire series and without Shoriful Islam for the opener, yet Litton Das’s last-minute fitness clearance gives them a batting spine they didn’t have a week ago. This is also uncharted territory: no player in the touring party has ever played a Test […]

An 87.50 percent points return puts them clear of every other side in this cycle, but the fixture list ahead is the toughest of any team’s. Fourteen Tests remain, closing with a five-match trip to India where they haven’t won a series since the early 2000s. Travis Head and Mitchell Starc have carried the campaign […]

Mohammed Siraj has the widest array of tools and the freshest big performance, on paper making him the pick to end the wait. But Auqib Nabi walks into this squad with the hottest domestic form of any bowler involved, uncapped or not. None of India’s four seamers have played a Test on the island before, […]

A 2-0 result over India would lift them from sixth to fourth in the table, and Asalanka’s bat is the single biggest variable in whether that happens. He’s their primary middle-order threat and white-ball captain, walking into a home assignment against a spin attack purpose-built for these conditions. His only recent overseas Test exposure came […]

Dindigul Dragons are the slight favourites for this TNPL showdown, carrying a 54% win probability and a dominant 9-3 head-to-head record over Madurai Panthers. Playing on their home ground at NPR College Ground, Dindigul, Dragons also have the considerable advantage of familiarity, and Vimal Khumar is expected to be the match-defining performer with bat in […]
