In a mesmerizing twist of events during the opening CommBank ODI between Australia and West Indies on Sunday, the enchanting journey of the visitors’ sensational batter, Hayley Matthews, came to an abrupt halt; a quad injury forced her to be ruled out of the match. This conspicuous nonattendance undeniably altered the dynamics of the match, rendering the West Indies incapable of mounting a formidable challenge against the reigning global titleholders.

Under overcast skies and on a green pitch, West Indies were asked to bat first. Over the next 27.3 overs, their innings crumbled, and they were bowled out for a mere 83 runs. Australia quickly established dominance in a game that became a one-sided affair.

In the realm of West Indies cricket, Hayley Matthews had established herself as the ultimate force, the sizzling beating heart, infusing life into their batting lineup during the enthralling T20I series. All eyes were captivated by her astonishing talent as she weaved her way to an extraordinary 310 runs; a mind-boggling feat that alone encompassed a staggering 61% contribution to her team’s overall runs. Devoid of her formidable presence, the visiting team encountered an arduous struggle against the dominant Australian squad, particularly within a venue that had remained invincible to Australia’s defeat in One Day Internationals.

Australia’s pace attack, led by Kim Garth, exploited the helpful seam movement from the grassy pitch, and West Indies were reduced to 3-5 within 6.3 overs. Only Aaliyah Alleyne (35) showed some resistance against the relentless Australian assault.

Australia encountered a slight hiccup during the match as Darcie Brown had to exit the field due to a hamstring issue; nevertheless, their squad’s extraordinary depth swiftly alleviated the situation. Captain Alyssa Healy sought the services of Ashleigh Gardner, whose inaugural delivery resulted in a prompt and auspicious attainment of a wicket.

The West Indies innings continued to crumble, and they lost wickets consistently, finishing at 83 all out. There were instances of poor running between the wickets, and Alyssa Healy’s brilliant work behind the stumps added to West Indies’ misery.

Australia chased down the target of 84 with ease, with Alyssa Healy and Phoebe Litchfield providing a solid start. Although Healy departed after a fine innings of 38, the experienced duo of Ellyse Perry (20 not out) and Beth Mooney (6 not out) ensured a comfortable eight-wicket victory for Australia.

As anticipation builds for the cricketing world’s grand spectacle, fans eagerly await the India vs. Netherlands warm-up match—a thrilling precursor to the main event.

Bangladesh’s preparations for the upcoming World Cup in India have been dealt a significant blow as Tamim Iqbal, their prolific one-day opener, will miss the tournament due to a persistent back injury.

Tamim, who initially announced his retirement from international cricket in July but reversed his decision after meeting with the country’s prime minister, had to step down as the team’s 50-overs captain due to his back issues. His absence was notable during the Asia Cup.

Despite making a return for this month’s home series against New Zealand, Tamim experienced discomfort after the first match, which prompted team management to make the difficult decision of leaving him out of the 15-man World Cup squad. All-rounder Shakib Al Hasan will lead the team in his absence.

Tamim Iqbal is Bangladesh’s highest run-scorer in ODIs, amassing an impressive 8,357 runs in 243 one-day matches. His absence will be deeply felt by the team.

In the aftermath of the Asia Cup 2023 debacle, Pakistan is gearing up for a change in leadership. The cricket team’s subpar performance saw them bow out of the competition following defeats to arch-rivals India and Sri Lanka during the Super 4 stage. Notably, some marquee players failed to deliver when it mattered the most. In a report by Geo.tv, it has been disclosed that the dynamic fast bowler, Shaheen Afridi, is poised to step into the role of vice-captain, taking over from Shadab Khan, as Pakistan readies itself for the upcoming Cricket World Cup 2023.

Here’s a glimpse of what Pakistan’s World Cup squad might resemble:

• Babar Azam (c)
• Imam-ul-Haq
• Fakhar Zaman
• Abdulla Shafiq
• Salman Ali Agha
• Iftikhar Ahmed
• Saud Shakeel
• Mohammad Rizwan (wk)
• Mohammad Nawaz
• Shadab Khan
• Shaheen Shah Afridi
• Haris Rauf
• Hassan Ali
• Zaman Khan

Shadab Khan’s performance in the Asia Cup left much to be desired, with a meager wicket count and a distressingly high economy rate. He faced a torrid time at the hands of Virat Kohli and KL Rahul during the one-sided clash between India and Pakistan.

In a commanding performance, Australia clinched a 123-run victory over South Africa in the second ODI, taking a 2-0 lead in the ongoing five-match series.

Australia now boasts a rating of 121, edging ahead of Pakistan, which holds a rating of 120, securing the second position.

Opportunity for Pakistan to Reclaim Top Spot

However, Pakistan still has a chance to reclaim the coveted number one rank. If they manage to defeat India in the upcoming Super 4 clash during the Asia Cup on Sunday, they would attain a rating of 122, potentially allowing them to regain their top position.

Renowned as the ‘Rawalpindi Express,’ Shoaib Akhtar struck fear into the hearts of many cricketing batters with his extraordinary pace. This Pakistani speedster, widely regarded as one of the fiercest fast bowlers in cricket history, left an indelible mark. Akhtar’s lightning-fast deliveries set a record in international cricket, clocking a jaw-dropping 161.3 km/h (100.23 mph). Across formats, he represented Pakistan in 224 international matches, amassing an astonishing 444 wickets.

In a candid interview on the ‘Wake Up With Sorabh’ YouTube channel, Shoaib Akhtar divulged his most formidable opponent on the cricketing field. To the astonishment of many, he singled out Lakshmipathy Balaji, an Indian fast bowler, as the cricketer he struggled most against.

“Lakshmipathy Balaji used to be my biggest opponent. He used to hate me like anything; I was all over the place, man. I could not get him out,” confessed Akhtar.
