Rain forced a draw in the fourth test match of the Ashes Series between England and Australia; Australia led the series 2-1

Image
The Australia and England cricket teams were squaring off against each other in the 4th test match of the Ashes series 2023 in Manchester. But because of rainfall on the final day of the game, the match ended in a draw. As a result of this, the Pat Cummins-led Team Australia retained the series with a 2-1 lead in the five-match series. Now only one match is remaining. The Australia cricket team had posted a target of 270 runs in the first innings after being asked to bat first after England won the toss. In reply to this, England was solid, with a total of 592 runs on the board. Then the visitors were 214 for 5 in their second innings and were trailing England by 61 runs. Marnus Labuschagne’s stoic century, given support by Mitch Marsh, allowed Australia to ensure that an innings loss looked less and less likely. But then the weather in Manchester spoiled everything as it started raining, which concluded the match in a draw.

Former stars advise the Inclusion of these players, as Rahul Dravid admits to the long-tail problem of Team India

In T20 cricket, the Indian cricket team is still battling the long-tail problem. Even the head coach of Team India, Rahul Dravid, admitted that there is a shortage of all-rounders in the team. In the 5th T20 between India and the West Indies cricket team, Tilak Varma even bowled and cooked the wicket of Nicholas Pooran. Although Varma and Yashasvi Jaiswal have been backed to bowl more often by the Indian team management, even former cricketers are backing this approach by the Indian team. Former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra said that Team India should push batsmen who can bowl and give youngsters like Yashasvi Jaiswal and Tilak Varma a long rope and encouragement to bowl as often as possible. He also called for spin-bowling all-rounder Washington Sundar to become a part of India's scheme of things in the T20I format. Chopra said in a tweet on X, Considering that most of the current Indian batters don't bowl even a couple of overs, the Indian team must start pushing for batter...

Image
Earning praise from the legendary Sunil Gavaskar remains the ultimate dream for every cricketer, and on Wednesday it was KL Rahul's turn to tick it off his bucket list. Sure enough, this wasn't the first time Rahul received a compliment from the former captain of Team India, but the magnitude of Gavaskar's praise will sure make it special. Rahul scored his 8th Test century, which is arguably the greatest of his career, as his knock of 101 propelled India to 245 against South Africa at the SuperSport Park in Centurion. As expected, Rahul was showered with praise, but Gavaskar's took the cake. Gavaskar said during the commentary, "I've been watching cricket for the last 50 years, but I can surely say that this century by Rahul is in the Top 10 centuries scored by Indians in Test cricket.” After stumps, during the post-day press conference, Rahul was asked about his reaction to this once-in-a-lifetime compliment by Sunny G. The reporter asked, "As Mr. Gavaska...
