Since people are talking about Ashish Nehra's sixes thought of posting this. Take a look this 22 of 13 v SL at Nagpur 2009 where he hit 2 consecutive sixes & a booming straight drive of Malinga! @NorthStandGang @gauravkapur @d_moinak

IPL shocker

  • Gideon Haigh is one of the best writers out there. Also the most prolific ones, and the fearless one. Read on as he calls out BCCI for there insensitivity.

  • The Aussie media is of course having a field day with it. Read more from Peter Lalor.

  • Here is the Cricinfo report about what went wrong. Short answer, a lot.

What is next for Bhuvaneshwar Kumar?

  • It has been three years since we saw Bhuvi in test cricket whites. In the interim Jasprit Bumrah has become the spearhead. Shami is indispensable. Ishant’s renaissance is an on-going story. Then of course, there is one Umesh Yadav, followed up by Siraj, Saini, Thakur, and Natarajan.
    What does all this mean for Bhuvaneshwar Kumar’s test cricket future?

The Fizz - Quick spinner or slow pacer or something else?

  • Jarrod Kimber tries to get into what makes Mustafizur tick. Is it his constant innovation? Fizz showed up in this year’s curtailed IPL for Rajasthan Royals armed with a Murali-esque slower delivery and head’s turned.

Thank you Thisara Perera

  • Thisara Perera has retired at the age of 32. Sounds odd if you ask me. I still remember his innings in the 2011 World Cup final. Possibly one of the reasons I never liked him! But here is, hanging up his boots, at least for Sri Lanka. Do expect for him to keep popping up in T20 leagues across the world. Leagues both big and small.

Bonus

  • Meanwhile, people are still trying to figure out what ‘The Hundred’ could mean.
