Duckett’s innings won’t last because scoring at this ground keeps accelerating every year, not slowing down. His 141 off 120 balls broke a record that had survived for forty seven years, only for the same afternoon to produce cricket’s second-highest score at this venue as well. Two centuries, one world record, one near miss, all […]
Duckett’s innings won’t last because scoring at this ground keeps accelerating every year, not slowing down.

He breaks cricket’s oldest records because he refuses to bat like a teenager waiting for the game to slow down. At fifteen, Sooryavanshi already holds the most sixes in a single T20 tournament, the fastest ten sixes in an IPL innings, and the youngest half-century scored by any man in international cricket. None of that […]
A fifteen-year-old batter broke three international age records inside one T20I series, numbers that will stand regardless of anything written about them afterward by critics or fans. The bowling attack he broke them against sits outside the world’s top 15 in the format. Both facts are true at once, and neither one cancels the other […]
A 3-0 sweep looks emphatic on a scorecard, but India conceded 125, 129 and 157 runs across three matches against a team ranked outside the world’s top 15. Two bowlers did almost all the heavy lifting while the rest of the attack struggled badly for control and consistency. That gap matters more than the final […]
One single IPL season was enough to erase two of the sport’s most quoted six-hitting records, both of which had stood untouched since 2012. Three key benchmarks from a legendary West Indian opener remain intact, including the one record that matters most of all: the highest individual score in IPL history. The gap between what […]
Khurram Khan still owns it. Rohit’s 138 at Lord’s made him the oldest Indian ever to score an ODI century, but globally he sits fifth on that particular list. Four batters, from four different countries, scored ODI hundreds at an even older age than his 39 years and 80 days. England won that series 2-1 […]
Shami took 24 wickets in seven matches at the 2023 World Cup, the tournament’s outright leading wicket-taker. In the two and a half years since, he has played just five more ODIs. Ankle surgery cost him a full year. A knee issue then delayed his return again. When he finally came back at the 2025 […]
At 37, Narine remains one of the most economical bowlers in franchise cricket, not despite his age but seemingly unaffected by it. In MLC 2026, he took 18 wickets at an economy of 4.74 while leading Los Angeles Knight Riders to the title. Days earlier in the IPL he had become just the third bowler […]
LPL 2026’s opening weeks belong to a courtroom, not a scoreboard. A Jaffna Kings co-owner sits in judicial custody over an alleged bribe attempt, and Sri Lanka’s cricket board has already stripped his group of the franchise. Five teams are grinding through a tight points table across Colombo, Kandy, Galle and Dambulla, yet none of […]
Height explains it. Blessing Muzarabani stands six feet eight inches tall and generates bounce no other bowler on either side can match, and he has exploited the same technical gap in Abhishek Sharma’s game three times running. India swept Zimbabwe 3-0, winning by seven wickets, 90 runs and 35 runs across three T20Is completed on […]
Kishan walked out at 29 for 2 in Harare on July 25, 2026, and left with 81 off 44 balls next to his name. That knock answers the question India has carried into this series: can he anchor the middle overs the way he opens an innings? A 66-run stand with Iyer and a 94-run […]
