During the India vs West Indies Test, a girl slapping a boy in the crowd went viral, briefly stealing attention from India’s commanding cricket performance.
Anil Kumble has advised Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli to focus on enjoying their cricket in the present rather than fixating on the 2027 ODI World Cup, acknowledging their desire for a final shot at glory while highlighting the challenges ahead.
Former India coach Ravi Shastri says Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma’s places in the 2027 ODI World Cup squad are far from guaranteed—and the Australia series is critical.
Despite posting 330, India lost to Australia in a record chase. Captain Harmanpreet Kaur cited a late batting collapse—losing 6 wickets for 36 runs—as the real reason for defeat.
After India enforced the follow-on, West Indies staged a remarkable fightback on Day 4 of the 2nd Test in Delhi, led by an unbeaten partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope.
Assistant coach Ryan Ten Doeschate has revealed that India’s team management had a serious ‘discussion to bat again’ before deciding to enforce the follow-on against the West Indies, a move that has since been met with a strong fightback from the visitors.
