Australia hasn’t had a cricketing enigma like Cameron Green in a long time. At 26, he’s still young enough to be mistaken for the kid brother tagging along with “Dad’s Army,” yet he’s old enough in cricket years to have already lived three different batting identities. In the last 18 months, Green has been Australia’s […]

Cricket has always flirted with chaos, but the Abu Dhabi T10 has turned that chaos into a business model. Eight captains from Pollard’s towering swagger to Shakib’s icy calm assembled under the Zayed Cricket Stadium lights to open the 2025 edition, and the mood felt less like a press conference and more like a blockbuster […]
Every IPL season throws up a trade that looks minor on paper but ends up shifting the entire balance of a squad. Delhi Capitals believe they’ve pulled off one of those moves. By bringing in Nitish Rana for his existing ₹4.2 crore fee, they didn’t just sign a middle-order batter; they quietly addressed three issues […]
Some events in the world of cricket may seem as if they were destined to happen, while others are built solely through one’s determination to put forth effort, to persevere despite exhaustion of any industrial-type machine, or both. Mushfiqur Rahim reaching 100 Tests is the latter. No other Bangladesh player has traveled along that lengthy […]
Just when you think you’ve seen it all in Indian cricket, comes a plot twist no author would dare to script: losing your captain to a neck spasm after three deliveries in a Test you must win. Yet here it is. Shubman Gill, fresh from walking into the captaincy for a new era, strode away […]
Four years ago, Mitchell Starc walked into an Ashes opener like a man auditioning for his own job. Today, he walks into another Ashes opener as the only fast bowler Australia can’t afford to lose. That arc alone is wild enough to make a Netflix producer raise an eyebrow. In 2021, Starc was the […]

While statistically, finishing the 2025 IPL season in […]
Indian cricket has always carried two unshakable truths: Chennai biriyani tastes better during a Test match, and India does not lose at home. But suddenly, that second truth is wobbling like a dodgy DRS call. A 30-run defeat to South Africa at Eden Gardens on a surface that behaved like a bored cobra has […]
What happens when IPL franchises swing the axe on their squads and a 10-over blitz tournament shows up right after? You get the Abu Dhabi T10 cricket’s most chaotic talent marketplace disguised as entertainment. Starting November 18, the 2025 edition lands with perfect timing: IPL 2026 retention lists are out, reputations are dented, and several […]
Every IPL retention window delivers its share of polite surprises, but the 2026 edition felt more like a high-voltage plot twist. Ten teams walked in with calculators, walked out with courage, and left fans wondering: since when did proven match-winners become expendable? When defending champions RCB let go of Lungi Ngidi, owner of 29 […]
How does a team that bullies sides at home suddenly freeze while chasing 124 at Eden Gardens? That’s the question India will carry like excess luggage as they fly to Guwahati for the second Test. On paper, 124 is a Sunday warm-up jog. In reality, it turned into a steep Himalayan trek without oxygen. […]
