India and England ended their five-match Test series on Tuesday (July 05) with Ben Stokes &amp; Co. chasing a 378-run target with seven wickets to spare. Jasprit Bumrah-led India dominated the rescheduled fifth Test but lost the plot in the third innings before England completely outplayed them in the run-chase.

Thus, the series finally came to an end, which kicked off in August 2021. After the first four Tests,&nbsp;India took an unassailable 2-1 lead over the hosts before falling apart in the last two days of the series decider, in Edgbaston, Birmingham, with the series levelled at 2-2. After the end of the 5th Test, England cricket's Barmy Army's official Twitter handle made heads turn with a bizarre post, claiming England to have won the series 1-0 (after their win in the remaining one-off Test). Here's how former Indian spinner Amit Mishra reacted to the post:

After the shocking loss in the series decider, India's stand-in captain Bumrah opined at the post-match presentation, "That's the beauty of Test cricket, even if you have three good days. We fell short with the bat yesterday and that is where we let the opposition in to let the match slip away from us. Ifs and buts can always be there. If you go back, if there was no rain in the first match, we could have won the series. But England played really well. We have drawn the series and both teams played very good cricket and it was a fair result."

Shikhar Dhawan has been named the captain of the second-stringed side as regulars&nbsp;skipper Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant, Jasprit Bumrah, and KL Rahul have been rested.

The likes of Ishan Kishan, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Shubman Gill, Deepak Hooda, Suryakumar Yadav, Shreyas Iyer, Sanju Samson, Md Siraj, Axar Patel will get opportunities in&nbsp;regulars' absence. Ravindra Jadeja has been named the vice-captain for the upcoming series on the Caribbean island. While Rohit, Kohli &amp; the likes are expected to return for the five T20Is, after the ODIs, former Indian all-rounder-turned-commentator Irfan Pathan&nbsp;took to social media to take a dig at the selection policy. The 37-year-old claimed that&nbsp;players won't return to form with them being rested at regular intervals.

'No one comes back to form....' - Irfan Pathan questions Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli's absence from WI ODI squad

India dominated proceedings for most parts in the just-concluded Edgbaston Test before losing the contest by seven wickets as the five-match series, which commenced during 2021 English summer, ended in a 2-2 stalemate on Tuesday (July 06).

In Rohit Sharma's absence, India were led by pacer Jasprit Bumrah whereas Rishabh Pant was his deputy. India were asked to bat first as they posted 416 after centuries from Pant and Ravindra Jadeja. In reply, England posted 284 courtesy of Jonny Bairstow's ton, giving a 132-run healthy lead to Team India. India, however, didn't capitalise and only managed to post 245 in their second essay, setting up a challenging 378-run target. While the target was a stiff one, India had a chance to completely bat England out of the contest by setting up anything over 450, however, they fell flat. In the run-chase, England were 109/3 before tons from Bairstow and Root took India home.

After the match, former Indian stumper Deep Dasgupta highlighted a glaring issue which has been a big factor in the national side's recent failures.&nbsp;

"It is very important for the team to have a stable captain. The position of the captain had been really [unstable] in the last few months, especially during England Test or Ireland tour," Dasgupta told ANI. "Due to injury and any other reason, we had to shuffle between captains. But now Rohit is fit and is available for the upcoming games," he stated.

"With only 2-3 months left for the T20 World Cup, there are many players who have showcased their spectacular performances. India is left with 20-22 games before the World Cup, so the selectors might have started shortlisting the players for the big tournament. Each and every match will be very important from now on," Dasgupta added.

India have been led by Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant, Hardik Pandya and Bumrah since September 2021. Thus, they need to have stability in the captaincy role heading into the 2022 T20 World Cup, to be held in Australia.

Important for India to have a stable captain: Former stumper highlights glaring issue after Edgbaston Test

MS Dhoni led Team India&nbsp;from the 2007 T20 World Cup till the end of 2016. He gave up Test captaincy by retiring from the format in late 2014 but continued to call the shots in limited-overs till the end of 2016. Under him, India attained unimaginable success as the national team won every ICC title and were even the No. 1 ranked side from late 2009 to mid-2011.

One of India's famous wins under Dhoni came during the 2013 Champions Trophy, held in England and Wales. Back then, Australia wasn't at its dominant best but still remained competitive, just like other sides such as England, Sri Lanka and South Africa. India were also a contender for the title, however, Dhoni had a young team at his disposal. Nonetheless, India continued to perform as they reached the final without dropping a single game, including the two warm-up encounters, and faced England in the summit clash in Edgbaston, Birmingham on June 23, 2013.

In a rain-hit 20-over aside contest, India struggled to reach 129/7&nbsp;as all hopes were slowly and steadily fading away. However, Indian bowlers upped the ante with a combined show to restrict England to 124/8 and claim the trophy by virtue of a five-run win in the finale.

After the match, Dhoni revealed how he motivated his young troops before their 130-run defence. "The first and foremost thing was don't look up, God is not coming to save you. You have to fight it out. We are the No 1 ranked team, let's play like that. If we lose, they will have to score the runs, we won't make easy for them," Dhoni had told Nasser Hussain in the post-match presentation ceremony.

Team India were favourites to win the fifth and final rescheduled Test in Edgbaston, Birmingham, before Ben Stokes-led England scripted a remarkable seven-wicket win by chasing a mammoth 378 on Day 5 on Tuesday (July 05). With this defeat, India lost a golden opportunity to win their first-ever Test series on English soil since 2007 as both sides settled for a 2-2 scoreline.

Jasprit Bumrah-led India were asked to bat first and posted 416, after being 98 for 5, riding on centuries from Rishabh Pant and Ravindra Jadeja. In reply, England folded for 284, giving a sizeable 132-run lead to the visitors. India only managed 245 in their second essay to lose the plot and couldn't remove final innings' centurions Jonny Bairstow and Joe Root as the duo's unbroken 269-run fourth-wicket stand took England to a historic seven-wicket win in Edgbaston.&nbsp;

With this defeat, India have complicated their journey enroute to the ICC World Test Championship final. While India still have quite a few games left in the ongoing second cycle, they find themselves at the fourth spot -- with a percentage of points (PCT) of 52.08%. Thus, they have their task cut-out to enter the finale for the second time on the trot. Here's how India can still make it to the final two:

Team India were favourites to win the fifth and final rescheduled Test in Edgbaston, Birmingham, before Ben Stokes-led England scripted a remarkable seven-wicket win by chasing a mammoth 378 on Day 5 on Tuesday (July 05).

Team India were favourites to win the fifth and final rescheduled Test in Edgbaston, Birmingham, before Ben Stokes-led England scripted a remarkable seven-wicket win by chasing a mammoth 378 on Day 5 on Tuesday (July 05). With this defeat, India lost a golden opportunity to win their first-ever Test series on English soil since 2007 as both sides settled for a 2-2 scoreline. Jasprit Bumrah-led India were asked to bat first and posted 416, after being 98 for 5, riding on centuries from Rishabh Pant and Ravindra Jadeja. In reply, England folded for 284, giving a sizeable 132-run lead to the visitors. India only managed 245 in their second essay to lose the plot and couldn't remove final innings' centurions Jonny Bairstow and Joe Root as the duo's unbroken 269-run fourth-wicket stand took England to a historic seven-wicket win in Edgbaston. With this defeat, India have complicated their journey enroute to the ICC World Test Championship final. While India still have quite a few games left in the ongoing second cycle, they find themselves at the fourth spot -- with a percentage of points (PCT) of 52.08%. Thus, they have their task cut-out to enter the finale for the second time on the trot. Here's how India can still make it to the final two: ALSO READ | ENG vs IND, 5th Test: Barmy Army posts false series result, former Indian spinner Amit Mishra reacts Can India still qualify?

The Indian Women`s Hockey Team held China to a 1-1 draw in their second pool B match here at the FIH Women`s Hockey World Cup Spain and Netherlands 2022 on Tuesday. Goals were scored by Jiali Zheng (26`) of China and Vandana Katariya (45`) of India. In their first match on Sunday, India had held England to a 1-1 draw where it was Vandana who had scored for the team while China too had drawn 2-2 against New Zealand.

It was a tense start to the match with the Chinese dominating the ball possession with a structured attack in the initial minutes of the game but once India shook off their nerves, they made some lethal circle penetrations that could have earned them an early lead. One such opportunity came in the 6th minute when Sharmila Devi and Navneet Kaur worked in tandem to take a shot on goal. But Navneet`s strike was blocked by a strong Chinese defence.

After ending the first quarter in a stalemate, India penetrated the Chinese defence on a number of occasions in the second quarter. In the 23rd minute, a PC awarded to India was contested and the referral went in favour of China. It was a shot taken by Vandana from the top of the D which bounced off Jyoti`s body into the goal, after she missed getting a deflection thus resulting in the referral going against India. But only seconds later, India found the foot of the Chinese defender winning their first PC of the match. But this chance went amiss too as Gurjit Kaur`s powerful drag-flick was blocked away by the Chinese goalie Liu Ping. China, however, did not falter when their attackers created a sublime variation that resulted in a goal. It was Jiali Zheng who put the ball past India`s experienced goalkeeper Savita in the 26th minute.

Meanwhile, India continued to work some impressive formations in their attack, earning the team another PC in the 27th minute but Monika who took the shot could not make much of the chance and the second quarter ended with China leading 1-0. Both teams displayed attacking hockey coupled with speed and patience in their efforts. The third quarter saw China fetching their first PC of the match but could not make much of it with Gu Bingfeng`s drag going wide. India, who won a couple of PCs in this quarter remained calm in their pursuit of a goal. Their wait finally ended in the 45th minute when the team converted from their 5th PC of the match.

It was the experienced striker Vandana Katariya, who once again was the cynosure of India`s PC attack. She picked up a brilliant deflection off Gurjit`s fiercely-struck drag-flick sending the ball flying past the Chinese goalie. This match too like the previous one India battled against England went down to the wire. India showed more urgency to convert a goal in the final quarter and they also defended well to keep the pressure on their opponents. They even warded off danger in the 56th minute when they conceded a PC, but they did well with the line defence to clear the ball.

Both teams contested for the ball in the dying minutes of the game, bringing the viewers to the edge of their seats. But with seconds ticking away, neither could successfully score despite China calling for a video referral asking for a PC on the hooter. With this match too ending in a stalemate, India will hunt for a win in their last round-robin league match on Thursday. On July 7, India will take on New Zealand in their third pool B match at 2300 hrs IST.&nbsp;

The Wimbledon 2022 edition is living upto expectations with several surprising results and some humdingers being played at regular intervals. The 135th edition of the premier tournament in London, England has created enough eyeballs as it is heading towards a fitting conclusion. However, a lot of noise has also been made outside the court.

Recently, an incident made heads turn as Wimbledon issued a warning to players, coaches and the support staff regarding the wise use of daily food allowance.&nbsp;For the unversed, each player at Wimbledon gets £90 per&nbsp;day on food allowances. Meanwhile, their coaches receive only&nbsp;half of that. While there is no particular set of instructions on how the players and their coaches should use the amount, the All England Club recently schooled one and all after it was found that a coach had bagged 27 probiotic yogurts from&nbsp;his daily food allowance.

An email was sent by the All England Club to all the players reminding them to be more ‘judicious’ in using their allowance and further instructed them&nbsp;to not spend their expenses unnecessarily.&nbsp;

“Each player and coach gets an allocated amount each day so everyone wants to use the full amount to get their money’s worth,” said a source to The Sun.

Babar Azam has been on a run-scoring spree since early 2022. In June, Babar became the first-ever batsman to have scored nine fifty-plus scores in international cricket, joining Mithali Raj (who was the first-ever cricketer overall) in the elite club. Not only this, Babar has broken several records in the past few months, some of them which were earlier held by India's Virat Kohli.

Ahead of Pakistan's two-match Test series versus hosts Sri Lanka, in Galle and Colombo respectively, Babar was asked about how he feels to have recently broken Kohli's record, of remaining the No. 1 ranked batter in T20Is for the longest time. To this, Babar reacted in the following manner:

"I have two questions to ask. My first question is... you recently broke Virat Kohli's record...". Before the Pakistani journo could even complete his question, the 27-year-old Babar&nbsp;intervened and asked,&nbsp;"Which one?"

The reporter then said: "You have remained No. 1 in T20Is for the longest time." To this, the Pakistan skipper replied, "Alright".&nbsp;Babar added saying: "I would like to thank god. There is hard work involved and that is why I have been able to give good performances."

India's tour of Australia in 2020/21 saw a huge controversy when Md Siraj complained of being racially abused by a group of fans in the third and penultimate Test at the SCG, Sydney. In the highly-competitive series between two top sides, the racism incident was a huge dent. In the ongoing India-England five-match Test series finale, in Edgbaston, Birmingham, another such racism incident got reported during the fourth and penultimate day's play on Monday (July 04).

Amid an intense and highly-competitive Test series decider between India and England, a section of English fans reportedly racially abused the Indian spectators at the stands. Many such fans took to social media to vent out their frustration and report the humiliating incident. In addition, they claimed&nbsp;that the stewards present at the venue asked them to sit down,&nbsp;allowing the abuse to go on.
