Cummins, Head offered ₹58 crore each for exclusive T20 league deals: Report

A group of leading IPL franchises offered Australia captain Pat Cummins and his deputy Travis Head staggering multi-year deals worth AUD 10 million (Rs 58.46 crore) each to play exclusively in T20 leagues, but both players turned them down, according to a report. The offers, nearly six times more than what top Australian players earn under their board's central contracts, were made earlier this year as part of a push by IPL-backed investors to assemble full-time franchise squads, according to a report in the Sydney Morning Herald. "The offers, made this year by an IPL team group, were politely rebuffed by two of Australia's most valuable cricket assets, who remain firmly committed to the national team," stated the report. Senior Australian players earn around AUD 1.5 million (Rs 8.77 crore) annually from Cricket Australia (CA) contracts, with Cummins' total income rising to AUD 3 million (Rs 17.54 crore) including captaincy allowances. The report said the development came to light

Alyssa Healy draws confidence from Australia's depth before India clash

Australia captain Alyssa Healy has set her sights on their upcoming marquee clash against India in the Women's World Cup and expressed confidence on the back of the team's incredible depth across departments. Defending champions Australia on Wednesday crushed Pakistan by 107 runs to register their second win in the tournament with the game against Sri Lanka washed out. The win was achieved on the back of Beth Mooney's magnificent hundred, her record partnership with tailender Alana King, and a dominant display by the bowlers after the team was reeling at 76/7 at one stage. "We'll reflect, obviously off to a new destination tomorrow and play India next. So we've got to sort of switch back on to a different venue and get ourselves in shape for that. Well, I mean, it's credit to our depth. We speak a lot about it, about how everyone in our order can contribute," Healy said after the win here. "We speak heavily about partnerships with bat and ball and I think we're creating partnership

Middle-order batters Vedant Trivedi and Rahul Kumar scored half-centuries while young left-arm spinner Khilan Patel grabbed four wickets as India Under-19 crushed Australia Under-19 by a massive 167 runs to make a clean sweep of the three-match Youth ODI series, here on Friday. Vedant (86 off 92 balls) and Rahul's (62 off 84 balls) 99-run partnership for the fourth wicket set the platform for a competitive 280 for 9.
