With a commendable blend of youth and experience, Trent Rockets put together a competitive team during “The Draft.” Afghan superstar Rashid Khan, who had agreed to a three-match contract with them, was one of their most valuable assets. But due to an unidentified injury, the 24-year-old has withdrawn from the competition.
On Tuesday, August 1 at Trent Bridge in Nottingham, Trent Rockets, who won the competition in 2022 after defeating Manchester Originals in the championship match at Lord’s, take on Southern Brave in the curtain-raiser of this year’s The Hundred. Rashid was scheduled to play in this match and a few others before being substituted by the New Zealander Ish Sodhi, a leg-spinner.
Rashid acknowledged his sorrow at being unable to participate in the special white-ball competition but emphasized his hope to return for the following iteration.
I’m very disappointed to have to drop out of The Hundred due to an injury. Rashid was reported by ESPNcricinfo as stating, “It’s been nice playing in the competition the first two years; Trent Rockets is a great squad, and I hope to be back again next year.
The Afghan leg spinner added that he missed a few One-Day Internationals against Sri Lanka earlier this year due to a back issue that has “yet to fully recover.”
Rashid Khan assisted MI New York in winning the first MLC 2023.
Recently, Rashid Khan has participated in a lot of cricket matches. The talismanic spinner left Bangladesh on Sunday, July 16 to play the final match of a two-match T20I series there. On Tuesday, July 18, he made his Major League Cricket (MLC) debut for MI New York (MINY) against Texas Super Kings.
The seasoned bowler wasn’t in terrific shape during the competition, but he showed his mettle in the championship match versus Seattle Orcas. Wayne Parnell and Company were held to a score of 183/9 in 20 overs thanks in part to his miserly spell of 3/9 in four overs during the first innings for MI New York. The MINY team’s captain, Nicholas Pooran, led the way with an unbroken 55-ball 137 that helped his team win.

Subject: It’s pretty nice to get a last-ball wicket to win an Ashes Test match: Stuart Broad
In a fairytale finish to his Test career, veteran England pacer Stuart Broad helped his country win the fifth and final Ashes Test at The Oval in London. Ben Stokes and company outperformed Australia by 49 runs on Day 5 of the fifth Test to tie the series (2-2).
Notably, Broad took two wickets, one of which came on the game’s penultimate ball when he sent Todd Murphy running to the pavilion. The veteran said it was amazing to win the Ashes Test with the last ball wicket when he was asked about his last wicket. In his lengthy Test career, the 37-year-old finished strong with 604 wickets at an average of 27.68 from 167 games.
“It was fantastic in every way. The crowd was astounding. We immediately got on the back of that since it was so loud. Two wickets for the team is a really noteworthy contribution. “To take a wicket to win an Ashes Test match is pretty cool because when you make that choice, you never know what your last ball will be,” Broad told Sky Sports.
Chris Woakes and Moeen Ali, in my opinion, set the tone in an incredibly unbelievable way: Broad
Broad gave additional praise to Moeen Ali and Chris Woakes for their efforts during the fifth Test. In his opinion, Woakes did a great job by removing star Australian batter Steve Smith. A special mention should also be made to Ali, who despite having a groin strain bowled 23 overs for three wickets.
“I think Chris Woakes and Moeen Ali were incredible set the tone. Woakesy managed to get rid of a few bowlers, including Steve Smith, who has always been a joy to play against. We really began to believe once we had a couple, the lanky pacer continued.
We’ve played a lot of games together, and although Moeen hasn’t formally said he’s going on, he’s been such a good friend. It would be a dream come true for him to put in that performance and aid England in winning an Ashes Test match, the 37-year-old continued.

Subject: Shai Hope discusses his team’s devastating loss to India in the first ODI: “I’m not making excuses.”
Following their defeat in the two-match Test series, the West Indies prepared to face Rohit Sharma’s India in a three-match One-Day International series, with the first ODI set for Thursday, July 27. India easily defeated the hosts as the game got began, giving the Windies the worst possible start to the white-ball series.
India imposed their dominance on the ODI series as well, chasing down the mark in just 23 overs and winning the match by five wickets. After winning the first game, the team will be eager to deliver similar performances in the series’ upcoming games.
Shai Hope, the West indies ODI captain, took center stage to address the issue following their batting collapse and poor performance in the first ODI. Shai Hope, stood up to offer his opinion, saying that while he is not absolving himself of blame for the defeat, he did express his worries about the difficult pitch that was in use and draw attention to the team’s incapacity to play on it.
Let’s just say that our performance wasn’t up to par. We must develop methods of scoring on a difficult pitch. I don’t mean to make excuses, but everybody who watches cricket can see what’s going on. But we need to find other methods to score,” Hope stated during the post-game awards ceremony.
West Indies’ defeat was caused by a batting collapse
In relation to the match, the Windies elected to bat first after losing the coin toss. But the Indian bowlers held the upper hand over their entire batting order. The West Indies were bowled out for just 114 runs in the opening innings, with captain Hope scoring the most runs with his knock of 43.
To make things simpler for the visitors before the run chase, it was the brilliance of Ravindra Jadeja and Kuldeep Yadav, who grabbed three and four wickets, respectively. India did lose five wickets in the second innings while attempting to reach the mark. Ishan Kishan, who scored 52 runs off of just 46 balls, helped India win the ODI series.

Subject: In the opening game of the competition, a Babar Azam devotee draws notice.
On Sunday, July 30, at the R Premadasa International Cricket Stadium in Colombo, the fourth season of the Lanka Premier League (LPL) got underway with a match between the reigning champions Jaffna Kings (JK) and Colombo Stars (CS).
It was Babar Azam first LPL game as Pakistan’s captain. The 28-year-old plays for Niroshan Dickwella’s Colombo Strikers in the LPL. Babar Azam often draws a large audience to the field wherever he plays because of his alluring personality. A touching occurrence occurred when the Pakistani cricketer’s LPL debut was witnessed by a sea of fans who were observed cheering for him. Azam’s supporters’ chants and cheers were recorded on camera, and the video is already trending on social media.

Subject: Shubman Gill’s performance is uninspiring: Abhinav Mukund
On July 25 at the same location, the spinners were in outstanding form and helped the team to a comfortable five-wicket victory. Mukund proposed not altering the starting lineup for this game.
“No, I don’t anticipate India changing its starting lineup, mainly because Mukesh Kumar received both a debut and the new ball. In this series, the opening bowlers will be Hardik Pandya and Mukesh Kumar, according to Mukund on JioCinema.
For only the second time in ODIs, they gave Hardik a shot with the new ball, and they also made some minor adjustments to the batting order. I don’t anticipate any adjustments being made in the bowling department since Chahal (Yuzvendra) will eventually be given a game, he continued.
However, Mukund’s fellow panelist Nikhil Chopra believes India could modify the starting XI, probably in the spin area.
“Since both Axar Patel and Yuzi Chahal are gone, the only alteration I feel is possible is in the spin department. In addition to taking three wickets on Thursday, Ravindra Jadeja also scored an unbroken 16 runs. So, if there are any changes, they are in the spin department, Chopra remarked.

Subject: Virat Kohli didn’t travel with the team to Trinidad and is reportedly questionable for the third ODI.
The Men in Blue suffered an embarrassing loss in the second ODI, thus the strategy appeared to backfire. In the three-match ODI series, West Indies subsequently evened the score.
Notably, the Windies triumphed in their first ODI encounter against the Men in Blue since 2019, snapping a nine-match losing streak. Notably, in the second ODI in Bridgetown, Barbados, team India was completely destroyed for only 181 runs. Shubman Gill managed to score 34 runs off 49 balls while Ishan Kishan managed to score 55 runs, but the rest of the batting lineup was unable to chip in with significant hits.
Shai Hope, the team’s captain, scored an unbeaten 63 off 80 balls during the chase, including two fours and as many sixes, to help his team tie India in the three-match series. Samson missed his opportunity to make an impact in the second ODI.
The third and final ODI encounter between Team India and Samson may see the return of players like skipper Rohit Sharma. The match will take place on Tuesday, August 1 at Trinidad’s Brian Lara Stadium. Prior to focusing on the five T20 Internationals, Team India will want to make a dramatic comeback in the final game.

Subject: Nicholas Pooran’s 137*(55) won’t be added to his records, according to the MLC 2023 Final.
Since the event took place in the USA, an Associate Member country, the International Cricket Council (ICC) has not given it official T20 status. It is noteworthy that the ICC has sanctioned the MLC, but regrettably, unlike well-known competitions like the Abu Dhabi T10 League, US Masters T10 League, Global T20 Canada, and ILT20, the six-team competition hasn’t received any funding.This shouldn’t, however, diminish the significance of Nicholas Pooran’s lightning-fast knock, which lit the stage on fire.
