Wow the bowlers are having a say after getting beaten black and blue over the last 3-4 months.🤩🤩
The ball is talking and it sets up for great viewing.#engvnz
For all cricket fans talking of test cricket being boring, have a designated test summer like Australia & England, also ensure specific test centres and see how the crowds turn up.
Test cricket, you beauty.
🤞 for your long life and health.
Can’t believe my eyes.
Lakshya just upset defending champ & world no.1 Shi Yuqi!

Watching this Ranji Trophy campaign and following it closely , one thing I can say for certain
For all the young boys and girls out there playing this sport and wanting to represent the country,
Do it the AQUIB NABI way
Can't think of any pacer/player in a long time doing what he's done
Domination from start to end and almost single handedly winning the domestic tournament that matters the most to get into the national side
Fitness across the whole campaign , bowling those longgg spells and across different soils , weather conditions and whether there's been any help for a pacer or not , he's been there for his team with the belief every time he's had the ball to STRIKE for his team .
Hats off to you AQUIB , you're an absolute champion and hope you get a lot of success that come your way and may you be the lesson on
" How it's done to break the doors through sheer will power , skill and resilience "
⭐⭐⭐

@ashwinravi99 I agree.Why restrict only bowlers. Already batters has all the luxury in the world. As per current laws this is not chucking
One more point which I always felt when bowler bowls bouncer and it is called as wide for height then why this ball is considered as one bouncer for over?
Agree football doesn’t allow it!
While the batter can be allowed to switch hit or reverse without informing the umpire or bowler, after him/her commits to start batting on one side, why are the restrictions only limited to the bowler?
In fact the bowler isn’t allowed to change the arm with which he/she
bowls without informing the umpire!
They should first change that rule.
Novak Djokovic to Rafa Nadal during the Australian Open final against Carlos Alcaraz:
“Wanna play, Rafa?”
Iconic moment between two of the greatest to ever pick up a tennis racquet. 🥹
Pete Sampras says Novak Djokovic changed the game at Wimbledon:
Sampras: “Novak Djokovic revolutionized Wimbledon with his defense and return game. And the way he slides on grass, it’s unreal.”
What a wonderful hundred by Yash Rathod! He walked in at 38/3, wickets kept tumbling at one end, yet Rathod kept the scoreboard moving from the other
With over 2.5k runs at an average close to 64, surely it’s time someone takes a serious look at him at the next level

@Vipintiwari952 I really dont understand why we speak only about Kohlis fitness. Where as in the same match Daryl Mitchell came to bat at #4 in second over and batted till 45th and then fielded entire India innings and bowled 1 over as well took one catch to get rid of Kohli on boundary..
@captainshanky Really kudos to Vidarbha Administrators
This season is real special as Vid had to show bench strength as well
Karun Nair gone back to Karnataka
Danish Malewar is injured from the start of season
Dhruv Shorey missed finals with injury
Wadkar missed sf and final still this result
Today happens only once in a lifetime and it’s that day for “Justin Greaves”.
Let’s not forget Kemar Roach in this effort👏👏
Also, Shai Hope was remarkable with the bat in both the innings ✅
Exceptional day for @windiescricket#wivnz
