England cricket’s men captain Jos Buttler was upset with India on account of the introduction of Harshit Rana as concussion substitute for all-rounder Shivam Dube in the fourth T20I, held at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune on Friday, January 31. Dube was struck on the helmet late in the innings by Jamie Overton, after which Harshit took over the second half of the match. Making his T20I debut for India on Friday, Rana took 3-33 in four overs and assisted the hosts in winning by 15 runs. Buttler was not the only one furious at the supposedly unfair…

Reports suggest that former Indian and Mumbai ace spinner Sairaj Bahutule has stepped down from his position as bowling coach of the BCCI’s Centre of Excellence in Bengaluru during the current T20I series against England. The 51-year-old ex-Mumbai cricketer, who has the rare distinction of having played two Tests and eight ODIs for India in his six-year-long international career, has been the bowling coach at NCA, Bangalore, for the last three years, and has often been seen working in this capacity alongside ex-head coach Rahul Dravid and NCA-head VVS Laxman.

An exemplary Indian captain, Mohammad Azharuddin has the distinction of playing 99 Tests and 334 ODIs. His Test debut against England in December 1984 could not have been more auspicious. Azharuddin achieved a fabulous hundred in the iconic Eden Gardens in Kolkata. Azharuddin kept the momentum going with another ton in his second Test in Chennai. The third Test continued the saga as Azharuddin got another one in Kanpur. Thus, Azharuddin became the first player in history to record centuries in each of his first three Tests, and it was today (February 1) in 1985 that he achieved this sensational…

Twenty-four years ago, a dark chapter was written into ODI cricket; New Zealand played Australia at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. It is remembered more as a turning point in cricket-not due to thrilling cricket being played, but due to the absolute disregard for the spirit of the game. This happened during the third final of the Benson and Hedges World Series Cup 1980/81 on February 1. The game was well contested, and it seemed that the Black Caps would draw when they needed six runs off the last delivery. The Australian captain, Greg Chappell, had other ideas. He ordered his…
