  • Indian Premier League 2019
    VVS LAXMAN Published 3.4.19 The last ten days have reiterated just how significant a place the Indian Premier League has carved for itself on the cricke�ng landscape. Spectacular ac�on and stunning performances have brought the tournament to life right from the beginning, and I expect the next six weeks to be no less gripping. From our point of view, I am delighted at how well Hyderabad have bounced back from defeat in our opening match, against Kolkata. Even in that game, we were in control �ll the end of the 17th over of the chase, but Andre Russell took it away from us with brilliant ball-striking. Even though I was in the opposi�on dugout, I couldn’t help but marvel at how he snatched victory from the jaws of defeat. The beauty of our franchise is that the shoulders never droop, the heads never drop. There is too much experience, quality and class among the playing group for that to happen. As members of the support staff, our endeavour is to keep the players in a good mental space. But eventually, it is the players who have to deliver on the park, and that’s what they have done in the last two games. David Warner has been outstanding. There is li�le sign that he has been out of interna�onal cricket for a year. His work ethics are exemplary, and I can see the hunger and desire in his eyes. He is striking the ball as beau�fully as ever, and there is a calmness about him that is infec�ous.

  • Is Australian Cricket Racist?
    Is Australian cricket racist? What they said… ‘There wasn’t a match I wasn’t racially abused in when I went out to bat’ John McGuire, an Indigenous player who is second in the all-time run-scoring list for the first-grade competition in Western Australia ‘We have to be vigilant against any comments, against any actions, even though it’s conducted by only a very small minority of people’ New South Wales premier Gladys Berejiklian warning cricket fans against making racially abusive comments The issue at a glance On January 9. 2021, on day three of the India vs Australia test match being played on the Sydney Cricket Ground, India captain Ajinkya Rahane and other senior players spoke to the umpires at the end of play. It was subsequently revealed that they were alleging racist abuse from some sections of the crowd. On January 10, play was stopped for eight minutes following claims of more alleged abuse. At least six fans were removed from their seats for allegedly making racist comments after Mohammed Siraj ran in from the fine-leg boundary, alerting teammates before umpires passed on the message to security and police. https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2021/jan/10/india-report-alleged-racist-abuse-from-scg- crowd-during-third-test A subsequent enquiry confirmed that racial abuse had occurred; however, the six spectators who had been escorted from the stadium were not the perpetrators. https://www.skysports.com/cricket/news/12123/12200065/cricket-australia-confirms-india- players-were-racially-abused-in-sydney-six-fans-cleared The incident has provoked significant discussion regarding the extent of racism in Australian cricket.

'Sledging is a clear example of inter-player maltreatment in sport that can pose a significant threat to the well-being of the individual' Keith D. Parry, a lecturer in Sport Management and Emma Kavanagh, a lecturer in Sports Psychology and Coaching Sciences 'On the pitch, it's pretty much a war, isn't it? There are always going to be a few words, and I think that's pretty much how people want to watch cricket being played' The captain of the English team, Alastair Cook The issue at a glance On November 25, 2013, the captain of the Australian cricket team, Michael Clarke, was fined 20 percent of his match fee after having been detected sledging during the final day of the first Ashes Test. The stump microphone picked up Clarke threatening English bowler and lower order batsman James Anderson with 'Get ready for a broken f***ing arm. Two days before Australian batsman, David Warner, had said of English batsman Jonathan Trott that he was 'pretty weak'. Trott later withdrew from the Ashes competition and return to England after it was revealed that he was suffering from a stress-related disorder. Though there is no suggestion that Warner's comment caused Trott's condition the two episodes have lead to renewed debate that about the extent of sledging in cricket, the harm it causes and whether stronger action should be taken against it.

  • England Seeking Hat-Trick of Ashes Wins for First Time in Over 30 Years Submitted By: Moneta Communications Tuesday, 9 July 2013
    England Seeking Hat-Trick Of Ashes Wins For First Time In Over 30 Years Submitted by: Moneta Communications Tuesday, 9 July 2013 Alastair Cook will lead out his England side on Wednesday morning with the weight of the nation on his shoulders as it is the turn of the cricket team to continue a marvellous summer of British sport. England will be bidding to retain the coveted Ashes crown for a third straight series, making it a hat-trick of victories over their old foes for the first time since 1981. Australia have been all-but written off by the media and cricket aficionados and it looks like England's urn to lose! For over a decade, the English cricketing public would head into a clash with their Antipodean rivals with trepidation and could almost sense achievement if they managed to gain a solitary win from the five-match series but along with the Australian demise in recent years, the English setup has grown in stature and become one of the most revered teams in test cricket. Andrew Strauss and Andy Flower galvanised the English side and captain Cook has duly continued the positive mindsets of the players and his ability at the top of the order twinned with the talent of the likes of Kevin Pietersen, Jonathan Trott and James Anderson has seen them create a magnificent spine to the test outfit. Whilst English cricket has blossomed since that epic Ashes win in 2005, the ‘baggy greens’ have become a mere shadow of their dominant past and the setup went into disarray as Mickey Arthur was handed his marching orders from the coaching staff only a couple of weeks before the start of the first test at Trent Bridge.

    The Indian Premier League (IPL) is an Indian professional league for men's Twenty20 cricket clubs with double round- robin and playoffs. Without any Twenty20 cricket league system, it is India's primary Twenty20 cricket club competition. Currently contested by eight clubs, it does not operates on a system of promotion and relegation. Only Indian clubs are qualify to play in the Premier League. Seasons run in the Indian summer spanning between April and June, with most games are played in the afternoons. The competition was formed by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) in 2008 after an altercation between the BCCI and the now-defunct Indian Cricket League.[1] The Premier League is headquartered in Mumbai,Maharashtra,[2][3] and is currently supervised by BCCI Vice-President Ranjib Biswal, who serves as the League's Chairman and Commissioner.[4] The Premier League is the most-watched Twenty20 cricket league in the world. It is generally considered to be the highest- profile showcase in the world for Twenty20 club cricket, the shortest form of professional cricket with just 20overs per innings. IPL is as well known for its commercial success and for the quality of Twenty20 cricket played. During the sixth IPL season (2013) its brand value was estimated to be around US$3.03 billion.[5][6] Live rights to the event are syndicated around the globe, and in 2010, the IPL became the first sporting event to be broadcast live on YouTube.[7] It is currently sponsored by Pepsi and thus officially known as the Pepsi Indian Premier League.[8] Two eligible bids were received, with Pepsi winning over Airtel with a bid of 3968 million.[9]However, the League has been the subject of several controversies where allegations of cricket betting, money laundering and spot fixing were witnessed.[10][11] Of the 11 clubs to have competed since the inception of the Premier League in 2008, five have won the title:Chennai Super Kings (2), Rajasthan Royals (1), Deccan Chargers (1), Kolkata Knight Riders (1) and Mumbai Indians (1).
