The Asia Cup trophy would be comfortably resting with the 2018 trophy won under the captaincy of the Indian team of Rohit Sharma at the BCCI headquarters. As it happens, the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) trophy of 2025 will now be safely locked in the office in Dubai, where it will collect as much dust […]

Only in the IPL can a team with not a single title attached to its name be worth $2 billion (as per the report). Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), the most-followed, meme-stoked, heartbreak-hardened franchise, today emerges as the center of the most high-profile business cliffhanger in the league. Reports in Britain suggest that British beverage giant […]
Colombo’s skies have been more influential than any bowler this World Cup. One spell of rain, and entire campaigns tilt. Ask Pakistan, robbed of momentum and points despite a famous win in the making. Now Sri Lanka and South Africa find themselves at the heart of this climate-fueled drama. Friday’s clash isn’t just about who […]
Wood’s story since the 2023 Ashes has been part triumph, part torment. He was England’s leading wicket-taker in their 4–0 defeat Down Under in 2021–22, then roared back to rattle Australia at Headingley with express pace that turned the series around. But since the Champions Trophy in February, he hasn’t bowled a competitive ball. Two […]
India sits fourth in the Women’s ODI World Cup table with four points from four matches, a balance between survival and stagnation. Wins against Sri Lanka and Pakistan secured a good start, but both victories revealed fissures. South Africa and Australia tore those cracks wide open. The margins were narrow but painful, telling a story […]
Delhi Capitals ended 5th in IPL 2025 – a point short of the playoffs. Axar Patel’s captaincy wasn’t bad, but there were signs of obvious trouble: brittle bowling, inconsistent game finish, and a lesser dependence on rhythm in top-order batting.

The post-Warne era has produced only two wrist spinners with over 100 Test wickets, Yasir Shah (244) and Devendra Bishoo (117), both barely visible in […]
Every October, when the Ranji Trophy dawns, it’s more than just another domestic grind; it’s India’s unofficial selection warzone. Underneath the polite handshakes and polite press conferences, careers are being rewritten, and dreams are being reloaded. This year’s opener has that extra layer of tension: veterans with something to prove, youngsters with everything to lose, […]
Rohit Sharma’s return to the ODI setup should have been another routine headline. But this time, the story has an unexpected twist: the man who led India to Champions Trophy glory just months ago is back, but not as captain. For the first time in years, Rohit walks into an Indian dressing room not as […]
In a World Cup where every run counts, sometimes it’s the raindrops that make the biggest impact. For Sri Lanka, three rain-affected matches have turned the Women’s World Cup into an emotional tug-of-war between frustration and faith. Chamari Athapaththu, however, isn’t ready to surrender to the clouds just yet. Her message is clear: win three, […]
