Becoming the T20 World Champions is nothing short of stupendous given they couldn’t bat, bowl or field against England, key components you’d have to say in any World Cup [...] Fielding was once upon a time an oft ignored part of the game. However, nowadays teams are just as focussed on getting their fielding up to scratch as they are with their batting and bowling prowess. Sri Lanka’s Angelo Mathews acrobatic and scintillating piece of fielding in the recent Twenty 20 World Cup against West [...] It amazing but true, the Second Test between England and the West Indies ended in complete and utter farce lasting an incredible 10 balls. That’s right an incredible 10 balls – the shortest test match in history! Looking at the state of the pitch I’m amazed it lasted 10 balls!
They were going to [...] There’s nothing like an English batting collapse; it is a thing of beauty; it is something to behold – unless that is you’re an fan of England.

Not only did they fail to live up to the hype of them being there in the [...] Those my dear friends are the last ten innings that Shahid Afridi has managed and he averages 21.50 in the last 12 months. It seems that Pakistan will continue taking a punt on Afridi coming good, although had this form been replicated for the likes of Australia or England, I do not think he’d have [...] Ganguly has come out and explained his decision to retire, talking of humiliation, guns being held against his head, metaphorically speaking, and this following insight: There are players who haven’t scored in the last three series for India, even for the last one year.
