USA registered a commanding 93-run victory over Netherlands in the 21st match of the ongoing ICC Men’s T20 World Cup at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. This is the highest victory margin (in terms of runs) by an Associate nation in a T20 World Cup.

Netherlands won the toss and elected to field first. Saiteja Mukkamalla anchored the innings brilliantly, building a crucial 55-run partnership off 37 balls with Monank Patel. He then added 54 runs off 35 balls alongside Shubham Ranjane. These two partnerships were instrumental in guiding USA to 196/6 in their 20 overs. Mukkamalla was outstanding, scoring 79 off 51 balls, including five fours and four sixes, at a strike rate of 154.90. Ranjane remained unbeaten on 48 from 24 deliveries, striking three fours and two sixes at a strike rate of 200. Bas de Leede was the standout bowler for Netherlands, claiming three wickets.

In reply, none of the Dutch batters offered any significant resistance, as USA took wickets at regular intervals. Harmeet Singh was the pick of the bowlers for USA, claiming four wickets for just 21 runs at an economy rate of 5.20. Shadley van Schalkwyk provided excellent support, finishing with figures of 3/21 in 2.5 overs. The Dutch side were eventually bowled out for 103, handing USA a comprehensive victory. Harmeet Singh was adjudged Player of the Match.

Consistent Nicholas Pooran can be world’s top T20 batter

Nicholas Pooran’s carnage against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Image: IPL He has always had a calmness about him. A very West Indian relaxed kind of mindset and demeanour. And having seen adversity, he knows that one needs to celebrate and value the good that comes your way. The urge to keep getting better, and be the best version of oneself, is what defines the new Nicholas Pooran. That’s what came through in the candid conversations we had on the IPL and his own approach to batting. Not overawed by the 21-crore price tag or the weight of expectations, Pooran is simply going about his job. He knows he can hit the ball miles and is keeping it simple. Go and do what you do best for hours and hours at practice, and in doing so, help your team Lucknow Super Giants] demolish opponents. “The best part about this franchise is they have never put me under pressure,” he told me. “When you are paid a lot of money, there is always pressure. Not so much from outside but from within. You know you ne...

MI vs RCB: Kohli, Patidar and Hazlewood to the fore as RCB see off Hurricane Hardik and Tornado Tilak

Image
RCB registered their third win of the season. (PC: X.com) As far as the big picture is concerned, Jasprit Bumrah’s return to the cricket field three months after he last played for India was undoubtedly the highlight at the Wankhede on Monday night. But in terms of the Indian Premier League (IPL), even the return of their talisman couldn’t prevent Mumbai Indians (MI) slipping to their fourth defeat of the season. Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) hadn’t won at the iconic venue since 2015, but half-centuries from Virat Kohli and Rajat Patidar and a blistering cameo from Jitesh Sharma were backed by bowling that came good when it mattered to clinch a 12-run victory.  They were, however, given an almighty scare by Hardik Pandya (42 off 15 balls) and Tilak Varma (56 off 29), who added 89 for the fifth wicket in just 34 balls, with some absolutely breathtaking hitting. Tilak, made to retire out after his struggles in the last game in Lucknow, took 17 from Suyash Sharma’s final over...

India possess the required tools to trouble Australia in Sharjah

Image
The radiant sunshine had just started to fade away as Snehasis Mukherjee, my colleague, and I, waited for the Indian team to arrive for their practice session. But as the clock ticked closer to 6 PM, it was another team that caught our eye, the six-time T20 World Cup champions, Australia. As expected, there was an air of confidence about them. More importantly, when Australia practised, it didn’t seem like an intense training session. It felt more as if they were enjoying the various tasks to be performed, including a game of Rugby. At that moment, Snehasis and I quipped: The body language of this side itself is so different. India’s next opponent is the same Australian side. After an ignominious defeat in their opening game, India, too, have bounced back in style, winning their previous two fixtures. In their last encounter versus Sri Lanka, India excelled in all 3 departments. Having said that, Australia and Sri Lanka are like chalk and cheese. The former has the aura of an invin...
