Najam Sethi chaired the second meeting of the Pakistan Cricket Board's Management Committee at the National High-Performance Centre on Saturday, where it was decided to discontinue the Pakistan Junior League and to revive the junior series on home-and-away basis in order to provide a pathway for young high-performing cricketers. The PCB Management Committee held an extensive discussion on the restoration of the Regional and District Cricket Associations and Departments/Service Organisations in line with the PCB Constitution 2014, as per a statement from the board. Following detailed discussions, it was announced Regional and District Cricket Associations and Departments/Service Organisations stand restored and a strategic plan will now be prepared to include them formally in the domestic cricket structure, including participation in the PCB Board of Governors in due course. The Management Committee approved the constitution of 12 PCB Committees and agreed that their compositions ...

Pakistan pacer Mohammad Amir has expressed his excitement at the opportunity to potentially represent Pakistan again. Notably, Amir had called time on his international career in 2020 in protest over the "shabby" treatment he said he received from the then management. Recently, fellow pacer Wahab Riaz had hinted that Amir could be back in Pakistan's squad. "We may see Mohammad Amir coming back to play for Pakistan once again," Wahab was quoted as saying by Cricket Pakistan in an interview to Samaa News. However, with Ramiz Raja , the former PCB chief, shown the exit door by the new government, Amir has finally broken silence on his Pakistan future. "If Allah wills, I will play for Pakistan again. But I would like to play and perform well in PSL," Amir told the reporters at the National High-Performance Centre (NHPC) in Lahore. Notably, Amir has been training at the NHPC to prepare for the upcoming season of the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL). Am...

Skipper Babar Azam explained the thinking behind Pakistan's shock declaration late on day five of the Karachi Test on Friday against New Zealand. Pakistan declared late on day five with just about 15 overs of play left, setting New Zealand a target of 138. The shock declaration opened up the Test match with the visitors starting off all guns blazing to chase the target down. However, the play had to be called off early with bad light intervening in the eighth over. While Pakistan could only pick up one wicket before the Test ended in a draw, Babar said they wanted to take a "chance". Saud Shakeel was in the middle with a half-century and was a bit taken aback by the skipper's shock call. "We said we'd go after a result," Babar said after the match. "We took a chance, you never know. It's cricket. Anything can happen. Saud and [Mohammad] Wasim Junior's partnership was vital for us because it brought us into the game. That put the idea in...

Sydney Thunder on Saturday defeated the Hobart Hurricanes by a huge margin of 62 runs in a Big Bash League (BBL) match at the Lavington Oval in Albury. After being put into bat, the Thunder rode on half-centuries from Alex Hales (77) and Ollie Davies (65) to post a huge total of 228/6 in 20 overs. In reply, the Hurricanes could only manage 166, despite Matthew Wade 's quickfire knock (67 off 30 balls), with Brendan Doggett putting in a real shift with the ball. Doggett ended the match with figures of 4/35. He also took a stunning return catch off his own delivery to dismiss Nathan Ellis . The incident happened on the third delivery of the 16th over, when Ellis hammered the ball straight at Doggett, who reacted quickly and somehow managed to pluck the cherry. The video was shared by BBL on their official Twitter handle, with a caption: "How's the reflexes on Brendan Doggett ?! #BBL12".

Former cricketer Gautam Gambhir said Ishan Kishan should be India's first-choice opener alongside Rohit Sharma in the ODI format for the coming years. In his most recent match against Bangladesh in Chattogram, Kishan turned his first ODI century into a career-high 210. The wicketkeeper-batter converted his maiden ODI ton into a double hundred in just 126 balls, the fastest in ODI history. Now that Shikhar Dhawan won't be playing in the ODIs, Gambhir thinks Kishan should continue to play the role of an opener. "I'm amazed we're discussing this because someone's got a double-hundred in the previous innings. The discussion is over. It has to be Ishan Kishan. Someone who can get a double-hundred in those conditions against a reasonable attack, especially at home, should play," ESPNcricinfo quoted Gambhir as saying when asked who he would like to see as Rohit's opening partner . Kishan received a call-up for India's three-match ODI and T20I series ...

Rishabh Pant has undergone a minor plastic surgery on forehead. He is currently stable and out of danger, informed DDCA director Shyam Sharma to NDTV. The Indian wicketkeeper-batter met with a horrific accident on Friday morning as he was driving from Delhi to Dehradun in his Mercedes Benz. His car caught fire after it hit a divider. Pant was fortunate enough to come out of the car in time, though he suffered a ligament tear in his right knee and cuts above his forehead. "Rishabh Pant underwent a minor plastic surgery near his forehead. A 3-member DDCA team is reaching Dehradun in an hour. BCCI is constantly in touch with the doctors at Max Hospital and with Pant's family. He is currently stable and out of danger. We are yet to decide whether he needs to be shifted to Delhi or not," DDCA director Shyam Sharma told to NDTV on Saturday. Rishabh Pant narrowly escaped death after his high-end vehicle smashed into a road barrier and caught fire on the Delhi-Dehradun highway....

The first Test between Pakistan and New Zealand ended in a draw after bad light forced early stumps on Day 5. The hosts declared their innings after scoring 311/8, taking a 137-run lead. The major contributions were made by Imam-ul-Haq, who smashed 96 runs while Saud Shakeel and Sarfaraz Ahmed scored 55 not out and 53 runs respectively. In return, the visitors made a blistering start and they posted 61/1 before the game was called-off. The result of the two-match series will now be decided in the next game that starts on Monday. However, Pakistan skipper Babar Azam got embroiled in a tense situation during the post-match press conference. As Babar was about to leave the press conference, a reporter got visibly irked after being ignored by the batter and yelled, "Ye koi tareeka nahi hain, yaha sawaal ke lie aapko ishaare kar rahe hain (This is not the way, I'm making repeated gestures to ask you a question)." babar made sure shoaib jutt realizes he's heard and ignor...

South Africa batter Theunis de Bruyn will miss the third and final Test against Australia next week as he is set to return home for the birth of his first child. The 30-year-old came into the side for the Boxing Day Test in place of Rassie van der Dussen . Batting at number three, de Bruyn had scores of 12 and 28 in South Africa's innings-and-182-run defeat in Melbourne. He also made headlines when Australian quick Mitchell Starc warned him for backing up at the non-striker's end during the second innings. "Batter Theunis de Bruyn will miss the third #AUSvSA Test in Sydney as he returns home for the birth of his first child. We wish him everything of the best for this exciting part of his life," Cricket South Africa (CSA) tweeted on Saturday.

Ever since Ramiz Raja was removed from the post of Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman, several current and former players in the country have spoken out against him. Ramiz too has been vocal about the changes in the PCB management after being sacked. During a recent appearance on Suno TV, Ramiz spoke on a range of topics, and slammed his critics for being foul mouthed. Ramiz insisted that Pakistan's performances were "outstanding" in white-ball cricket, during his tenure. Ramiz also went on to claim that it was Pakistan who forced India into making changes in their cricketing set-up. "We gave outstanding performances in white-ball cricket. We played the Asia Cup final, India didn't play that. India, a billion-dollar industry, was left behind. Tod phod hui, unhone apna chief selector, selection committee fire kar di, captain badal diye kyunki unko hazam nahi hua ki Pakistan unse kaise aage nikal gaya.

Rishabh Pant met with a horrific accident on Friday morning as he was driving from Delhi to Dehradun in his Mercedes Benz. His car caught fire after it hit a divider. Pant was fortunate enough to come out of the car in time, though he suffered a ligament tear in his right knee and cuts above his forehead. His condition is stable. A Haryana Roadways bus driver, named Sushil Mann, was among the people who took cricketer Rishabh Pant out of the Mercedes SUV after it crashed. Mann said he did not know who the injured man was and acted swiftly to arrange for an ambulance. Haryana Roadways later honoured Sushil, news agency PTI reported. "We gave them an appreciation letter and a shield in our office when they returned to Panipat," Haryana Roadways Panipat depot general manager Kuldeep Jangra told PTI. VVS Laxman , former India batter and current NCA head, hailed Sushil. "Gratitude to #SushilKumar, a Haryana Roadways driver who took #RishabhPant away from the burning car, w...

Indian cricketer Rishabh Pant suffered multiple injuries when his car collided with a road divider on the Delhi-Dehradun highway, on Friday. Pant, who was going to his home in Roorkee, is currently undergoing treatment at the Max Hospital in Dehradun. Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami had said that the government will bear the entire expense of Pant's treatment. Now, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) secretary Jay Shah has provided an update on Pant, following the horrific car crash. Jay Shah took to Twitter and revealed that Pant is currently stable and undergoing scans. He also revealed that he had a conversation with the player's family, as well as the doctor who is treating on him. "My thoughts and prayers are with Rishabh Pant as he fights his way back to recovery. I have spoken to his family and the doctors treating him. Rishabh is stable and undergoing scans. We are closely monitoring his progress and will provide him with all the nece...

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) secretary Jay Shah had recently announced that India won't travel to Pakistan to take part in the 2023 Asia Cup, and also proposed the idea for the tournament to be held at a neutral venue. Following the announcement made by Shah, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) had also threatened to pull out of the ODI World Cup, which will be held after the Asia Cup in India. Sharing his views on the same, Ramiz Raja , who was recently sacked from his role as the chairman of PCB, pointed out past incidents when teams refused to play in Pakistan, citing security concerns, and what happened next. Ramiz urged the board members not to bow to India's demands and show some leadership. "What is leadership? When Asian Cricket Council (ACC) has asked Pakistan to host a tournament and then India say they won't travel to Pakistan and shift the tournament to a neutral venue, what should be the response? Are we servant of India just because the...

India wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant on Friday sustained injuries after his car collided with the divider and caught fire while he was travelling from Delhi to Uttarakhand. He was driving his Mercedes car, which met with an accident near Roorkee in Uttarakhand. Pant has sustained injuries to his head, knee and shin as a result of the accident. There could be a fracture in his leg and he is currently being moved to the Max Hospital in Dehradun. After Pant got injured in the road accident, people from all walks of life took to Twitter and wished the cricketer a speedy recovery. Here's how Twitter reacted: "Wishing dear @RishabhPant17 a super speedy recovery. Bahut hi Jald swasth ho jaao," former India opening batter Virender Sehwag tweeted.

Indian cricketer Rishabh Pant has sustained injuries after his car collided with the divider and caught fire while he was travelling from Uttarakhand to Delhi. Initial reports suggest that Pant was driving his Mercedes car, which met with an accident near Roorkee in Uttarakhand. He was alone in the car and broke a window to escape from the vehicle after it caught fire. He has sustained injuries to his head, knee and shin as a result of the accident. Pant was part of the Indian team that had won the Test series against Bangladesh 2-0 recently. He had impressed with knocks of 46 and 93. He was recently dropped from the T20I team announced for the series against Sri Lanka. Pant had celebrated Christmas in Dubai with former India captain MS Dhoni and his family and the pictures were shared on social media by Dhoni's wife Sakshi . Pant has been India's regular wicket-keeper across all formats after MS Dhoni's retirement and has been one of India's top performers wi...

The International Cricket Council (ICC) on Thursday announced nominees for the Men's ODI Cricketer of the Year 2022 award. Pakistan skipper Babar Azam , Australia spinner Adam Zampa , Zimbabwe all-rounder Sikandar Raza and West Indies' Shai Hope are the contenders to win the award. The ICC Men's ODI Cricketer of the Year 2021 is in the running to do a repeat in 2022. Babar Azam once again showed his prowess in the 50-over format, showing once again why he has ruled the roost at the top of the ICC Men's ODI Player Rankings since July 2021. The 29-year-old Pakistan skipper registered eight scores of more than fifty in nine matches this year, three of which he converted into hundreds. He finished the season with 679 runs at an astounding 84.87 average. Adam Zampa continued to show why he has been a vital cog in the Australian white-ball setup, finishing the year as the highest wicket-taker for his country in ODI cricket. The leggie had his joint-most productive year i...

South Africa were on the wrong end of a "hammering" against rampant top-ranked Australia on Thursday, losing the second Test by 182 runs and with it the series. The loss capped a dismal first two Tests for the visitors who slumped by six wickets in the opener at Brisbane inside two days, with a potential face-saving third match at Sydney still to play. "It is not easy at the moment. That was bit of a hammering," Proteas skipper Dean Elgar said. Australia declared on Wednesday at 575-8 built on the back of man-of-the-match Warner's 200 and a gutsy 85 from Steve Smith in searing heat, in reply to South Africa's first innings 189, and then took complete control with the ball. South Africa resumed day four on 15-1 after Elgar went for a duck before rain halted play early on Wednesday. But their resistance didn't last long with three wickets falling before lunch at the Melbourne Cricket Ground and the rest in the second session as they succumbed for 204. ...

Running the batter out at the non-striker's end if he/she leaves his/her crease before the ball is bowled is still a controversial mode of dismissal in cricket. While some fans and experts are in support of the law, others think that it should be removed as it is unfair. Marylebone Cricket Club -- the custodians of the laws of cricket -- had earlier this year moved the mode of dismissal from the 'unfair play' section of their laws to the 'run out' section which was adopted by ICC from October 1. Whatever be the opinion of the fans and experts, but the fact cannot be ignored that the batters at times, gain an unfair advantage of leaving their crease early at the non-striker's end. To tackle this amid the ongoing controversy surrounding the mode of dismissal, the bowlers usually try to warn the batters who do such an offence rather than dismissing them at the first time. A similar instance was seen when Australia pacer Mitchell Starc got agitated and warned Sou...

The Indian U-19 women's cricket team produced an all-round effort to beat South Africa by 54 runs in the first T20I of the five-match series in Pretoria on Tuesday. The series serves as preparation for both teams ahead of the ICC U-19 Women's T20 World Cup to be held in South Africa from January 14 to 29. Opener Shewata Sehrawat and Soumya Tiwari scored 40 each off 39 and 46 balls respectively to guide India to 137 for five after being asked to bat. In reply, South Africa only 83. However, the match grabbed attention for another reason. It came in the 17th over of the South African innings when India's Mannat Kashyap ran out Jenna Evans at the non-striker's end. The video soon went viral on social media. Eventually India captain Shafali Verma took back the appeal and the match went ahead. England women's cricketer Danielle Wyatt was not impressed with the incident. "Oh no I hope there's none of this in the u19 WC!" Wyatt tweeted. India and England h...

Pakistan vs New Zealand 1st Test, Day 4 Live: On Day 3, Kane Williamson and Tom Latham hit contrasting hundreds to propel New Zealand to 440-6 at the close on the third day of the first Test against Pakistan in Karachi. Williamson survived two stumpings and a leg-before decision before knocking an unbeaten 105, while Ish Sodhi was on one, with the tourists leading by two runs. Williamson's 25th Test century is his first in international cricket since he racked up 238, also against Pakistan, in Christchurch in January last year. With the National Stadium pitch likely to take spin on the last two days, New Zealand will look to press home their advantage in the first Test of the two-match series, their first in Pakistan since 2002.

India's T20 batting sensation, Suryakumar Kumar on Wednesday said his elevation to the post of vice-captain of the national side seems like a dream, and he would continue to play his natural game without being burdened by the added responsibility. Indian selectors made some major changes in the national white-ball set-up by giving the T20I captaincy reins to Hardik Pandya and appointing Suryakumar as his deputy for the series against Sri Lanka, beginning in Mumbai on January 3 next year. Senior players such as Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and KL Rahul did not find a place in the squad for the series. "It (vice-captaincy) was not expected. I can only say it's kind of a reward to me for the way I (have) played this year. It feels good and I'm really looking forward to it," Surya told reporters after day two of Mumbai's Ranji Trophy match against Saurashtra here. Surya's first reaction after his father forwarded him the team list was of utter disbelief. ...

Ever since Ramiz Raja was removed from the post of Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman, several stakeholders of the game in the country have spoken out against him. Now, veteran Pakistan pacer Wahab Riaz has also criticised the former PCB management led by Ramiz, who is also an ex-Pakistan cricket team skipper. Riaz, who has played 27 Tests, 91 ODIs and 36 T20Is for Pakistan, said the former management never paid heed to players' demands. "We had a lot of difficulties with the previous board," Wahab Riaz was quoted as saying by Cricket Pakistan in an interview to Samaa News. The veteran pacer said that he was made to feel unwanted. "We were told things 'You have no idea how difficult it is to adjust you, nobody would keep you in a team,'" Wahab said. "That made us feel as if we've some loolhay langhray players who have never achieved anything in the game." Wahab added that former PCB chairman Ramiz Raja never responded to his messag...

Australia vs South Africa 2nd Test Day 4 Live: Australia closed in on winning the second Test and the series against South Africa on Wednesday after Alex Carey struck a maiden century to leave them in a commanding position. The hosts declared at tea on 575-8 on day three with an ominous lead of 386 after South Africa were bowled out in their first innings for 189. In reply, the Proteas were 15-1 when play was abandoned early at the Melbourne Cricket Ground due to persistent drizzle.

David Warner battled through searing heat to hit an epic unbeaten 200 in his 100th Test on Tuesday before retiring in pain as Australia consolidated their advantage against South Africa at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. On a scorching day, the hosts were 386-3 at stumps on day two of the second Test, leading by 197 after the Proteas were dismissed in their first innings for 189. Travis Head was not out 48 with Alex Carey on nine. Steve Smith (85) and Marnus Labuschagne (14) were the only wickets to fall. But worryingly for Australia, Cameron Green , who took 5-27 in South Africa's first innings, also retired hurt after a nasty rap on the finger from Anrich Nortje . Smith and Warner's 239-run partnership took the game further away from South Africa, whose bowlers toiled in temperatures touching 37 degrees Celsius (98.6 Fahrenheit). Opener Warner, 36, snapped a near-three-year century drought in typically aggressive and gritty fashion, reaching three figures for a 25th time ...
