In the space of a few weeks, Will Jacks’ name has gone from IPL trade boards to England’s Test squad list, a twist that captures cricket’s unpredictability in full swing. The English all-rounder, bought by the Mumbai Indians for ₹5.25 crore after a fierce bidding war, now finds himself on the potential release list for […]
When a Test match is scheduled in India, the question is never if the pitch will spin; it’s when. But at Eden Gardens, that question feels almost rebellious. In a country where spinners are cricketing royalty, Kolkata’s famed venue has quietly built a reputation for being India’s most pace-friendly fortress. Since 2010, its fast bowlers […]
England can change captains, coaches, or bowling blueprints, but one specter keeps walking back into their Ashes nightmares: Steve Smith. At 36, he’s not just playing another series; he’s defending a legacy built on tormenting England like few have ever done. The numbers still sting 12 hundred in 37 Tests against the old enemy, and […]
IPL player transfers seldom occur quietly; however, as we see in this case, there exists a potential to develop a much larger transfer involving two teams, the Mumbai Indians (MI) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), which might be more impactful than what is currently being reported about Jadeja-Curran-Samson. The trade reportedly would involve Shardul Thakur […]
A single twitch of Josh Hazlewood’s hamstring sent the world of cricket into a mini-panic; with the Australian squad dealing with Pat Cummins’ ongoing back issues and Nathan Lyon’s increasing workload, the loss of another quality fast bowler would be a major blow for Australia heading into their first Ashes test match in Perth.

But as the 2025 trade window heats up, even their fortress of consistency seems to be entertaining chaos. Reports suggest that Rajasthan Royals captain Sanju Samson could head […]
Sometimes, the most revealing performances don’t happen in front of TV cameras or during primetime Tests; they unfold quietly, at the WACA, with a bruised forearm and a point to prove. Matt Renshaw’s gritty 101 off 198 balls against Western Australia wasn’t just another Sheffield Shield century; it was a defiant answer to Australia’s selectors […]
Cricket loves to talk about evolution until it’s time to evolve. The ICC’s latest working group, led by Roger Twose, has quietly shelved the idea of a two-tier World Test Championship (WTC) system once again, favoring a single 12-team division instead. On paper, it’s a unifying move. In reality, it’s a compromise, a delicate truce […]
It is a tough time to travel to India for South Africans, and almost like they are walking on fire. They could get through the trip, but they will suffer some form of burnout. In 2015, South Africa was overwhelmed by spin bowling. The 2019 South African team was also hurt by leadership issues and […]
For nearly two years now, since 2022, Shreyas Iyer has proven to be India’s most consistent link for connecting the intentions of the top order with the explosive potential of the lower order; in that time, his average in ODIs has averaged just above 45 with an impressive strike-rate of close to 95. As he […]
