Brook's century has England on top after Day 1 of 2nd test vs New Zealand

Harry Brook played the role of New Zealand's nemesis with flair on Friday, reaching his eighth test century as England finished in a strong position after the first day of the second test. Brook's fast-paced innings of 123 included a century from 91 balls and set the tempo of a day on which 346 runs were scored and 15 wickets fell. New Zealand finished in trouble at 86-5 in reply to England's 280, having lost Devon Conway, Tom Latham, Rachin Ravindar, Kane Williamson and Daryl Mitchell before stumps. Tom Blundell was 6 not out and nightwatchman Will O'Rourke was unbeaten on 0. Williamson appeared typically solid until he was caught by wicketkeeper Ollie Pope from the bowling of Brydon Carse for 37. Carse had bowled Williamson when he was 20 only to be denied when replays showed he had over-stepped. Brook made the difference in the first test which England won by eight wickets, going to the crease at 45-3 and making 171 to deliver a commanding first-innings lead. On Friday he strod

India vs Australia 2nd Test preview: Rohit Sharma plays perfect team man

Rohit Sharma might take a step back to lead from the front as India look for the perfect combination to drive home the advantage against a wounded but famously resilient Australia in the day-night Test starting here on Friday. The biggest predicament is the batting order, which will need to be shaken up a bit to accommodate Rohit, returning to the side from a brief paternity break, and a fit-again Shubman Gill. But the resourceful side would be happy to have that headache than being under-strength, which was the case when they last toured and beat all expectations to come out trumps. Playing Australia in Australia tends to bring the best out of the visiting Indian team which defied all expectations to boss the series-opener in Perth, handing Australia their first loss at the Optus stadium. In their last trip Down Under, India made a comeback for the ages following the 36 all out debacle at the Adelaide Oval but the visitors are placed much better this time around, following the ...

Seales takes 4 wickets as West Indies dominate Day 2 vs Bangladesh

Fast bowler Jayden Seales took four wickets and conceded only five runs in almost 16 overs to give West Indies the advantage over Bangladesh on Day 2 of the second test. Seales bowled 10 maiden overs in total and helped to mop up the tail Sunday as Bangladesh was all out for 164 in 71.5 overs in its first innings. West Indies trailed by 94 runs after reaching 70-1 at stumps in reply. Captain Kraigg Brathwaite is 33 not out and Keacy Carty is on 19. Mikyle Louis was the only wicket taken by Bangladesh, caught behind off Nahid Rana (1-28). Bangladesh had earlier resumed on 69-2 at Sabina Park after only 30 overs were bowled on an opening day limited by a wet outfield and bad light. Sunday was ended early by poor light after a total of almost 80 overs. The visitors went to lunch in Kingston at 122-6, having added 53 runs in the morning session off 28 overs for the loss of four more wickets. Shamar Joseph (3-49) bowled Shahadat Hossain (22) to end a 73-run partnership for the third wic

IND vs AUS: Shubman Gill returns to nets, recovery better than expected

Shubman Gill returned to the India nets on Friday, showing enough signs of a full recovery from a thumb injury that ruled him out of the series opener against Australia in Perth. Gill's absence was not felt in Perth as India won the game by 295 runs but considering his impressive run on the previous tour, the visitors need him at his best over the course of the five-match series. The top-order batter was seen facing Yash Dayal and Akash Deep in the nets ahead of the pink-ball warm-up game against Australian PM's XI starting Saturday. "I was just trying to get a feel to be honest, see how the injury is reacting, if any kind of soreness is there but it went much better than what I and Kamlesh bhai (Kamlesh Jain, physio) expected. Very happy with that," Gill said in a video posted by BCCI on X after the training session here. Gill was naturally disappointed about getting injured ahead of the first Test but India's special performance put him back in a positive frame of mind. "Any bal
