WTC final Day 3

By

 


Day 3 of the world test championship ended with New Zealand in control as they bowled India out for 217 and then went to stumps on 101 /2 

Kyle Jamieson was the chief destroyer as he took 5 wickets as New Zealand took the last 7 Indian wickets for 71 runs.  

The Indian batsman struggled against the pace and bounce of the New Zealand bowlers and also played some unnecessary shots which cost them their wickets. The Indian bowlers also looked a little off. The only threatening bowler was Ishant and Ashwin to an extent.

New Zealand will be happy with their day's work as they managed to reduce the deficit to 106 runs. The Indians will know they have a lot of work to do to come back in this test match. 

The scorecard looks like this 

India 217  92.1 overs

A. Rahane 49 (117)                                                                          K. Jamieson 5-31 (22)

V. Kohli 44 (132)                                                                              N. Wagner  2-40 (15)

New Zealand 101/2  49 overs 

D. Conway 54 (153)                                                                        I. Sharam 1-19 (12)

T. Latham  30 (104)                                                                        R. Ashwin 1-20 (12)


New  Zealand trail by 106 runs

Proteas vs India 2nd test Day 1 review

By
  The second test match between Proteas and India kicked off on a high note with the hosts putting up a horrendous batting performance on day 1. The Proteas team won the toss and elected to bat first, but they failed to make the most of the opportunity as the Indian bowlers wreaked havoc on the home team's batting line-up bowling them out for 55. Mohammed Siraj was the chief destroyer with 6 wickets for 15 runs in 9 overs. He was equally supported by Mukesh and Bumrah both taking 2 wickets each.  The Indian team lost their first wicket early on, with Jaiswal departing for a duck. The rest of the top-order batsmen struggled to get going as well, and the team was bowled out for 153. However, a brilliant counter-attacking innings from Markram helped the home team to 62-3 at stumps to steady the ship.  It was an excellent day for bowlers on both sides as 23 wickets fell for 270 runs.  The Proteas bowlers, led by Rabada and Lungi Ngidi, were impressive after t...

England crowned T20 world Champions for the 2nd time.

By
Congratulations to England on becoming T20 world champions for the second time.  England has become only the second team to win the T20 world cup more than once after winning the 2022 T20 world cup. England is currently the best team in white ball cricket. The brand of cricket they play is just admirable. England's aggressive brand of cricket has made them one of the most dangerous teams in the world and they transition this bold brand into their test game. Going forward, they will be one of the most hazardous sides across all three formats.  The final was mostly dominated by England as they won the toss and chose to bowl 1st. Pakistan had a decent start and looked good until the 11th over and then fell away as England's bowlers squeezed the run flow Pakistan's middle order was not up to the task as they could only manage to post 137-8 in their 20 overs. Overall Pakistan's batting was poor today as they struggled to get away from the England bowlers. The turning point i...
