T20 World Cup 2024: Steyn, Smith emotional, Proteas reach first ever final

Graeme Smith and Dale Steyn are all too familiar with the heartbreak of being a South African in ICC events, and as the Proteas broke the jinx by entering their maiden T20 World Cup final, both men felt emotionally overwhelmed. South Africa handed a nine-wicket thrashing to Afghanistan in the semifinals in Tarouba, Trinidad to make the final after seven semifinal disappointments of the past. "We are in the finals. Couldn't be happier for @AidzMarkaram and the team, one more to go," wrote former skipper Smith on his X account, tagging current captain Aiden Markram. Steyn, the premier fast bowler of his time, was as delighted to see his country in the showpiece's final, and lauded the pace bowlers for producing a brilliant effort to bowl out the Afghans for a feeble 56. "It's emotional down here. We're into a final. Proteas with the bit between their teeth! "It's been destructive poetry in motion. Beautiful to watch," Steyn scribbled on his X handle. The South African government to

T20 World Cup 2024: Sri Lanka head coach Chris Silverwood steps down

Sri Lanka's head coach Chris Silverwood on Thursday stepped down from the role following the team's dismal outing in the ongoing T20 World Cup, the SLC announced. Former captain Mahela Jayawardene had resigned from the post of the consultant coach on Wednesday. Being an international coach means long periods away from loved ones. After lengthy conversations with my family and with a heavy heart, I feel it is now time for me to return home and spend some quality time together, Silverwood said in his statement. It has been a real honour for me to be part of Sri Lanka Cricket and I will be taking away many fond memories, added Silverwood. Sri Lanka crashed out of the T20 WC in the group stages itself with two losses, a no result and a solitary win, and it was the former champions' worst performance in the ICC showpiece. During Silverwood's tenure, Lanka won the T20 Asia Cup in 2022 and also reached the final of the 50-over Asia Cup last year where they lost to India. They also secur

T20 World Cup 2024: Bhojpuri nights, temples, booming economy of Guyana

Guyana gives that home vibe to visitors from India, and the Indianness is quite palpable in every corner here. You feel that immediately while entering the Providence Cricket Stadium at Georgetown, the capital of Guyana, which is the only English-speaking country in South America. The main entrance of the stadium welcomes you with an unmissable Bhojpuri Nights banner promoted by a nearby nightclub. A short walk from there takes you to one of the many and probably the biggest temples in Georgetown, the ISKCON. A popular Indian eatery owned by former West Indies batter Ramnaresh Sarwan too is a must-visit for anyone from the sub-continent. The Guyanese Indians as they are referred to form the largest ethnic group in this country which shares borders with Brazil, Suriname and Venezuela. Most of the Guyanese Indians are Hindus including Sarwan while the current president Irfaan Ali is a Muslim of Indian lineage. The Guyanese Indians are very powerful here. As far as places of Hindu

T20 World Cup 2024: AFG's Trott criticises Trinidad pitch after semis loss

Afghanistan coach Jonathan Trott has lambasted the pitch that was used for their T20 World Cup semifinal against South Africa here, asserting that it was unfit for a contest of such magnitude. The pitch, which offered lateral seam movement and inconsistent bounce, was a nightmare for batters as Afghanistan were bowled out for 56 - the lowest score in a T20 World Cup semifinal at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy stadium here. Even though South Africa chased down the target in 8.5 overs, their batters too struggled. "I don't want to get myself into trouble and I don't want to come across as bitter or it being a case of sour grapes but that's not the pitch that you want to have a match, a semi-final of a World Cup on, plain and simple," Trott said at the post-match press conference. The former England batter said the pitch took batting completely out of the game. "It should be a fair contest. I'm not saying it should be flat completely with no spin and no seam movement, I'm saying you

T20 World Cup 2024: Markram happy to not play on Trinidad pitch again

South African skipper Aiden Markram was certain that he does not want to play another match on the pitch here, but was chuffed to see his side tame a challenging track in the semifinal to enter its maiden T20 World Cup final. The deck at the Brian Lara Academy stadium offered considerable movement off the seam and South African quicks used it to the optimum to bowl out Afghanistan for an insufficient 56. If we reflect back on this wicket, we'll probably be pretty happy that we're not playing here again. T20 cricket as a whole, you want entertainment, said Markram in the post-match press meet after SA defeated Afghanistan by nine wickets. Markram was delighted to see South Africa finding a way to win on a challenging strip. "The wickets that we've had throughout the competition have been pretty challenging. It's hard to tell that a wicket is not good because it can't just always be a batter's game. "Having said that, still taking the positives we can. Wickets are tough. So, finding
