      T20 World Cup: Phillips, Boult power New Zealand to 65-run win Sri Lanka

      Glenn Phillips rode his luck to smash a special hundred as New Zealand put their poor start behind to register a crucial 65-run win over Sri Lanka in the T20 World Cup, here on Saturday. New Zealand found themselves tottering at 15 for three inside the powerplay before Phillips (104 off 64) shared an 84-run stand with Daryl Mitchell (22 off 24) to stabilise the innings. The 25-year-old, who was dropped twice including early on in his innings, played some sensational strokes en route to his second T20 hundred. His knock comprised four sixes and 10 boundaries. Sri Lanka too lost early wickets but, unlike New Zealand, could not recover from there to end at 102 all out in 19.2…

      Ireland captain and player of the match Andrew Balbirnie hailed his side’s T20 World Cup win over England in Melbourne as “amazing and emotional”.

      Lionel Messi given what Cristiano Ronaldo craves with lucrative new offer

      Lionel Messi has been offered a lucrative new deal at Paris Saint-Germain following his impressive start to the season. The 35-year-old has scored nine goals and chipped in with 10 assists in 15 matches so far this season – with PSG unbeaten in all competitions. After a disappointing first campaign at the French giants, Messi has re-found his form and is spearheading an attack with Kylian Mbappe and Neymar alongside him. According to Le Parisien, PSG are already working on a new deal for the Argentine, whose current contract runs out next summer, and the club want the player to stay beyond that. Messi joined PSG from Barcelona on a free transfer in 2021 and is reportedly earning around £700,000 a week. It is understood PSG…

      Stoinis’ 18-ball 59* gives Australia NRR-lifting win over Sri Lanka

      A spectacular display of thumping-the-daylights-out-of-a-cricket-ball from Marcus Stoinis took a tense game and made it a cakewalk. Australia needed 69 off 46 balls when he walked in, and there was potential for this to be a low-scoring thriller. But then the man muscled six sixes and four fours in an 18 ball innings, in which he basically bullied every ball he faced. He hit Australia’s fastest T20I half century, off 17 deliveries, and ended up making 59 not out, at a strike rate of 328. Thanks mostly to him, and a little to Glenn Maxwell who hit 23 off 12, Australia not only claimed their first victory of the Super 12, they also reversed some of the damage to their net run rate that…

      ‘Make local players mandatory in IPL franchises’

      There cannot be a more enjoyable moment from an Indian spectator point of view than to see a performance of an Indian team as what was viewed yesterday (Sunday) against Pakistan at the T20 World Cup 2022. I am certain that over the years we will produce several Virat Kohli’s who will give so much pleasure to the Indian diaspora as he did yesterday. However, the game has evolved tremendously and T20 cricket has become a primary cricket entertainment source which in due course will attract several young aspirants to take up the sport in tight earnest. This being the case the domestic circuit will require a tweak in the scheduling and will result in prioritising this form over the traditional…

      ‘Best if you can delete this’: Nasser Hussain calls out Pakistan fan for fake news after T20 World Cup loss

      Former England captain Nasser Hussain was displeased with a fan who appeared to be a supporter of the Pakistan cricket team after the latter made a tweet following Sunday’s blockbuster clash between India and the Men in Green in the T20 World Cup 2022. Mohammad Nawaz began the last over of India’s run-chase with a wicket, followed by a single and a double while defending 16 runs. India needed 13 runs in the last three balls, and the game appeared to be slipping away from them. Virat Kohli, who was named Player of the Match, hammered Nawaz for a six. To add insult to injury, the on-field umpires ruled it a no-ball because it was above the waist. As a…
