World Cup 2023: Moeen Ali lists reason behind England lacklustre campaign

Over the last few years, England's success in the white ball formats was built on downright aggression, and all-rounder Moeen Ali on Tuesday admitted that the defending champions have not been able to produce that kind of cricket in this World Cup. England have lost three games out of four in this tournament and are in dire need to win the next matches to keep their hopes of reaching the semifinals alive. "We've been playing aggressive cricket since 2015 and done it quite well. I think the lack of that way of cricket has probably cost us a little bit in this tournament. "I think we need to play that way, but without slogging the ball, but just be that really aggressive side that we know we can be," said Ali in the pre-match press conference. However, Ali was candid enough to say that playing that brand of cricket is not always easy, as it required sustained aggression. "It's not always that easy. Yeah, most of the time you want the guys to score quickly and score for longer period

ICC World Cup 2023: We're starting to play to our potential - Pat Cummins

Australia captain Pat Cummins on Wednesday said the five-time champions were slowly coming to their groove and have started playing in the manner they are known for, after a slow start to their World Cup campaign. Australia endured a poor start to the World Cup, losing to hosts India and South Africa in their first two games before bouncing back with three consecutive wins -- over Sri Lanka, Pakistan and Netherlands. The Australians hammered Netherlands by a massive 309 runs here on Wednesday, the biggest in the World Cup in terms of margin of runs and second biggest in the ODI history. "Just about the complete game. Couldn't be happier. We are starting to play to our potential and play in the style we talk about. We had another good batting powerplay," Cummins said at the post-match presentation ceremony. Glenn Maxwell (106 off 44 balls) struck the fastest century of the World Cup and blew away the Dutch attack to score his ton off just 40 balls, while Warner struck 104 off 93 ba

Cricket World Cup 2023: I drew on India experience - Glenn Maxwell

Star Australia all-rounder Glenn Maxwell is well aware of all the records and said he drew on his experience of playing in India, including the IPL, to belt a 40-ball ODI century, the fastest in World Cup history. Maxwell smashed nine fours and eight sixes on way to a sensational 106 off 44 balls to propel Australia to a mammoth 399 for eight against the Netherlands. Maxwell was averaging 12.4 in ODIs in 2023 and hadn't hit a half-century in India in ODIs since the start of 2017. "The fact that I've made runs in India during the IPL pretty regularly over the last couple of years, so I'm not too worried about people saying that I haven't made runs in ODI cricket because it doesn't really matter, especially my role in one-day cricket," he said at the post-match press conference after Australia hammered Netherlands by 309 runs here on Wednesday. "It's so similar to T20, so I just draw on those experiences, knowing that if I do get it right on the day, hopefully my team will be ...

World Cup 2023: Steve Smith back among runs after changes in technique

Taking the traditional leg-stump guard and tweaking his grip from bottom to a top-handed one went a long way in Steve Smith regaining his form after a mini-slump in the ongoing World Cup. On Wednesday, the 34-year-old smashed nine fours and a maximum on way to a solid 68-ball 71 and forged a 132-run partnership with David Warner (104) to lay the foundation of Australia's mammoth 399-8. Smith said he worked on a "couple of things" during the net sessions on Tuesday. "I moved back to leg stump a little bit. I got my hands a little bit higher than what they've been for the last week. For some reason, they've dropped down a bit. I just felt it in the nets yesterday and everything sort of clicked back into place again," he said after Australia beat the Netherlands by a record 309 runs. "I felt like I was batting well a couple of weeks back against India. I thought I was actually getting back through the ball nicely on a pretty tough surface and and playing well and then for a week kind

World Cup 2023: Virat Kohli says, awalys chased betterment not excellence

Enjoying a good run of form in the ongoing World Cup, star India batter Virat Kohli says his motto has always been to chase betterment and not excellence. Kohli is currently India's highest run-scorer in the tournament, having made 354 runs in five outings at an average of 118.00, including a century and three half-centuries. "I have always worked on how I can better myself every day, every practice session, every year and every season. So, that is what has helped me play for this long and perform," Kohli told Star Sports. "I don't think it is possible to perform consistently without having that mindset, because if performance is your goal, then one can get satisfied after a while and stop working on their game." "It has always been my motto to chase betterment and not excellence because I honestly don't know what the definition of excellence is. There is no limit to it, nor there is a set standard that when you reach here you have achieved excellence. "So, I try to work towards .
