While Ranchi has hosted ODI matches before, there’s no doubt that it is going to be different this time around, as this will be the city’s first World Cup-level ODI. Thousands of fans were waiting for the sun to rise, and Ticketgenie crashed under the strain of high demand. The lines at the JSCA have […]

The Bangladesh Premier League has survived chaotic schedules, franchise reshuffles, and enough political noise to fill a Mirpur press box, but what unfolded this week feels different. When a league quietly drops eight domestic cricketers from its draft list, eyebrows don’t just rise; they sprint upwards. The BCB’s integrity unit, led by former ICC […]
There are injuries, and then there are Ashes-defining ruptures in a team’s strategy. Mark Wood falls squarely into the latter. England arrived in Australia knowing Wood wouldn’t play all five Tests, but they certainly didn’t plan for him to miss the second one, especially after their eight-wicket defeat in Perth. His left knee, the same […]
Every mega auction throws up one storyline nobody sees coming. For Delhi Capitals in 2026, it’s not a superstar release, a dramatic trade, or even a surprise retention; it’s the fact that their most stable future depends on finding the right man to stand 22 yards away from KL Rahul.

The Ashes rarely leave room for calm decisions, and Brisbane 2025 has tossed Australia straight into another identity crisis. Usman Khawaja, retained for the second Test at the Gabba, is both the safest and riskiest name on the team sheet, a contradiction that perfectly sums up the state of the Australian opening.

This wasn’t just a roster update. It was a […]
India is supposed to be the place where visiting spinners go to suffer. Dust, heat, and relentless turn may be ideal for home bowlers, but they’re equally unforgiving for tourists who aren’t bred in these conditions. And yet, every once in a while, someone shows up with a bag of tricks sharp enough to slice […]
Every auction has its shocks, but the 2026 Women’s Premier League auction served an entire buffet of them. Not the casual “Oh, she went for less than expected” kind, this was full-blown disbelief. Five proven, decorated, high-impact cricketers walked out without a paddle raised for them. Zero bids. Silence. This, in a league where […]
In IPL economics, being released is often misunderstood. Fans see it as rejection; franchises see it as recalibration. And that’s exactly where Liam Livingstone’s case with Royal Challengers Bengaluru sits, a moment where logic, numbers, and opportunity collide. RCB, fresh off their championship high, walks into the 2026 auction with ₹16.40 crore and eight […]
