Pakistan’s right-arm pacer Naseem Shah has recovered from the injury ahead of the second ODI of the ongoing three-match series against Australia, scheduled to be played on Friday here at Adelaide Oval. According to the details, Naseem participated in the national team’s training session today and bowled at full potential. He will be available for the second ODI, sources further revealed. Remember, Naseem was forced to leave the field midway his eighth over in the ODI series opener against Australia as the right-arm pacer suffered severe pain due to cramps. Naseem displayed exceptional all-round brilliance in Pakistan’s two-wicket defeat in the series opener as he registered decent bowling figures of 1/39 in 7.2 overs after a blistering 40-run knock with the bat, which featured one four and four sixes. Remember, Australia lead the three-match series 1-0, courtesy of their narrow two-wicket victory in the series opener at Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). The second ODI is scheduled

This time of year traditionally offers many things for me to look forward to—voting booths, Superbowl parties, Fall foliage, a break from hot temperatures, a colorful and delicious pallet of root vegetables, warm casseroles and stews, spooky costumes, and plenty of holiday cheer and gratitude. But among all things I love so much during Fall and Winter months, there is also the presence of something I do not covet as dearly—the perpetual sneezing, runny nose fluid, swollen throat, and painful cough often associated with the common cold. But did you know that the common cold or the flu cannot be cured or prevented by antibiotics, because it's a virus? In fact, using antibiotics pre-emptively or inappropriately can damage our immune system and make us more susceptible to other kinds of sick! And on the topic of generous antibiotic intake, I'm sure you've heard the numerous reports on the alarming amounts of antibiotics and prescription drugs polluting drinking water acros

Although the world of cricket features some electrifying rivalriesm, none matches the attention garnered by Pakistan vs India matches regardless of the format. With fans hoping to see the two arch-rivals take on each other other than international tournaments, former Pakistan skipper Wasim Akram has opened up on his favourites in a Test series if the two teams are to go up against each other in the longest format of the game. "Pakistan have a chance to beat India in Tests now on a spinning track. They have been hammered by New Zealand 3-0 at home," said Akram while expressing his views during the commentary of the first ODI between Pakistan and Australia on Monday. Akram's remarks came in response to former England cricketer Michael Vaughan's statement where he said that he believed that the Men in Green could triumph over the Indian side. "Pakistan can now beat India on the turners," said Vaughan. Remember, Pakistan, showcasing their spin prowess, ma

Mohammad Huraira has replaced Mohammad Haris as Pakistan Shaheens’ captain ahead of the team's two four-day and three 50-over matches against Sri Lanka ’A’, scheduled at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium from November 11 to 29. The shift in leadership came just days after the Haris-led Shaheens were knocked out of the ACC Men's T20 Emerging Teams Asia Cup 2024 by Sri Lanka 'A' in the semi-finals. The Shaheens, who won the previous One-Day edition of the tournament in 2023 by defeating India 'A', had a lackluster campaign this year as they only managed to beat Oman and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The team suffered defeats at the hand of arch-rivals India 'A' in the campaign opener and Sri Lnka 'A' in the semi-final. Shaheens' newly-appointed captain Huraira has scored 3,310 runs in 40 first-class matches with eight centuries and 14 half-centuries. In 25 List-A matches, the right-handed batter has accumulated 632 runs, striking a century

Left-arm pacer Mitchell Starc on Monday, added another feather to his cap as he completed 100 One-Day International (ODI) wickets in Australia. Starc achieved the milestone during the first ODI of the three-match series between Australia and Pakistan, underway here at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). Opening the bowling for Australia, Starc was quick to make an impact as he dismissed debutant opener Saim Ayub in just the third over. From over the wicket, Starc bowled a slightly fuller delivery outside the off-stump, which angled in to breach Saim’s defence as he attempted to drive away from his body. The dismissal pushed Starc’s ODI wickets tally in Australia to hundred. As a result, Starc became only the fifth Australian to achieve the milestone, joining the likes of Brett Lee, Glenn McGrath, Shane Warne and Craig McDermott.

Australia beat Pakistan by two wickets in a nail-biting fixture in the first ODI at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) on Monday. Chasing a modest 204-run target set out by the Green Shirts, the Kangaroos had to fight their way against the Pakistani bowling unit to secure a 1-0 lead in the three-match ODI series. The hosts had a shaky start to the pursuit as their openers Jake Fraser-McGurk and Matthew Short perished inside four overs with just 28 runs on the board. But, a solid 85-run partnership between Steve Smith and Josh Inglis put Australia in a dominant position. However, despite Haris Rauf's three wickets and two that of Shaheen Afridi, Australian skipper Pat Cummins (32*) dug in to help his side across the line. via Original Source
