Brendon McCullum has apologised to English cricket fans for the Test series defeats in Australia and India following his sacking as the Test coach. The ECB parted ways with McCullum in whites after England’s home Test series defeat to New Zealand, marking the end of Bazball.

Kranti Gaud’s seven-wicket haul and a maiden Test century from Yastika Bhatia powered the Indian women’s team to a monumental 270-run win over England in the inaugural women’s Test at Lord’s. This historic feat at the Mecca of Cricket comes just two days after the Indian men’s team surrendered their T20I series in England, ahead of the upcoming ODIs starting Tuesday (Jul 14) at Edgbaston. Led by Harmanpreet Kaur, the visiting side etched their names into cricketing folklore with an absolute demolition of the hosts, heavily anchored by Smriti Mandhana’s brilliant twin fifties.

“I never thought about it, but the day the match started, I wanted to get my name written on the Honours Board,” said medium-pacer Kranti Gaud, who won the Player of the Match award for her seven wickets across two innings, including a historic five-for in the first. “I feel very proud, as does my family.

It looked like a below-par score on this Lord’s track; England’s diminished performance in their reply (170) highlighted India’s bowling strength. With a massive 115-run lead, the Indian women’s team rode on fifties from Mandhana (70) and Richa Ghosh (50*) and a brilliant yet historic maiden Test ton from Bhatia, who scored 113, including 14 fours, to give England a target of 457. &nbsp;The hosts never looked comfortable chasing this mammoth target, having been reduced to 34 for four at one stage and later 59 for five. In the final innings, two Indian seamers, Gaud and Sayali Satghare, alongside spinners, Sneh Rana and Deepti Sharma, broke through England’s batting to dismiss them for 186 runs on day four.&nbsp; &nbsp;“God is a better writer, and he has written it pretty well. Our openers have been our strength - the way they batted in the first half, it was special to watch,” Harmanpreet Kaur said after the match. “I want to give credit to the support staff. This summer did not go the way it wanted, but we came back strongly in the Test match.” &nbsp;“On the first morning, we did not adapt to the conditions as well as we could have. Struggled to find our length, but once we did that, we were in the game. With the bat, we did not have enough partnerships.&nbsp; &nbsp;“So, fighting to get back into the game from there. Throughout the match, at different stages, we showed character,” England women’s team captain Nat Sciver-Brunt said.

Chennai Super Kings head coach Stephan Fleming has parted way with the IPL franchise after 18 years in position. The announcement came on Monday (Jul 13).

Teen batting sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi has joined the likes of veteran Yuvraj Singh and his India teammates Sanju Samson and Abhishek Sharma for the men’s Wimbledon final at the Centre Court on Sunday (Jul 12). Just a day after India lost the fifth and final T20I against England in Southampton, India’s T20I stars spent time watching Jannik Sinner and Alexander Zverev in the summit clash at the All-England Club. All were decked up in two-piece suits, with Vaibhav wearing a black suit and Abhishek and Yuvraj donning light and dusky brown suits, respectively.

"I'm here to watch the final match and see what the experience is like, watching live and observing how players perform in the finals. It should be a great experience," Vaibhav said during an interview with Wimbledon.<h2>Vaibhav Picks his Tennis Idol</h2>At 15 years old, Vaibhav revealed Novak Djokovic as his idol in tennis. Expressing sheer inclination towards Djokovic, who suffered a straight-set defeat at the hands of Sinner in the semifinal, and former Clay Court King, Rafael Nadal, Vaibhav said, "I used to watch Nadal and Djokovic a lot. I really like Djokovic, but those were the two players I followed the most.” &nbsp;Upon being asked to choose a doubles partner, Vaibhav took no time in picking Abhishek. &nbsp;"I will go with Abhishek bhaiya.

And to be here on finals day makes it even more special. I am just going to enjoy the match and soak it all in. I always looked up to Rafael Nadal. He is a lefty like me, and one of the most successful left-handed players in tennis history. His work ethic, his attitude, and the way he dominated the sport for so many years – he is definitely someone I admire,” Abhishek said while speaking to JioStar.

Meanwhile, all three will now depart for India following the conclusion of the five-match T20I series, which India lost 0-4, with the first game getting washed out.&nbsp; &nbsp;The three-match ODI series gets underway on July 14 at Edgbaston in Birmingham.

Following a tough T20I series against England, Indian cricket stars Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, Abhishek Sharma, and Yuvraj Singh suited up for the men's Wimbledon final at Centre Court.

Teen batting sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi has joined the likes of veteran Yuvraj Singh and his India teammates Sanju Samson and Abhishek Sharma for the men’s Wimbledon final at the Centre Court on Sunday (Jul 12). Just a day after India lost the fifth and final T20I against England in Southampton, India’s T20I stars spent time watching Jannik Sinner and Alexander Zverev in the summit clash at the All-England Club. All were decked up in two-piece suits, with Vaibhav wearing a black suit and Abhishek and Yuvraj donning light and dusky brown suits, respectively.

Great captains aren’t those who win the most matches but those who make better decisions which change the course of the game. Captains like MS Dhoni, Suryakumar Yadav and even Rohit Sharma are known for that, and the newly appointed T20I skipper Shreyas Iyer would like to follow the same path. That, however, seems to be taking its time. Although his record as IPL captain reflects his captaincy credentials, Iyer’s shocking start to his India captaincy career puts him on the other side of the conversation, and team selection for most of the games on the UK tour compounded his misery.&nbsp;The team selection remained the biggest talking point of India’s horrendous T20I leg of the UK tour. Not only did they concede the two-match series to Ireland in a shocking result, but India also failed to put England under pressure and lost the five-match series. Be it the selection conundrum at the top or picking the right players at the death, the lack of clarity was exposed as India also surrendered its T20I ranking to England.<h2>The Opening Conundrum: Samson vs Sooryavanshi&nbsp;</h2>India started with Sanju Samson and Abhishek Sharma in the first three T20Is, only to drop the keeper-batter after that and bring in uncapped teen sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi. Experts called it brave to bench Sanju for Sooryavanshi, with fans ruing the decision to sideline Samson. All would still have made sense had the management and the captain backed the attacking left-hander in all remaining games.

The Tactless Tour: Strategic missteps and selection blunders cost India top T20I ranking

India has added seamer Prince Yadav and leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi to the squad for the three-match T20I series against Zimbabwe as injury replacements. While Prince has replaced fast bowler Harshit Rana, who is ruled out of the ongoing England series with a hamstring injury, Bishnoi comes in for ace spinner Varun Chakravarthy, who missed the last two T20Is against England with a similar issue. Prince and Bishnoi, however, were not part of the original 15-man squad picked for the away series against Zimbabwe starting July 23.&nbsp;Meanwhile, Rana and Varun’s absence hurt India in the concluded T20I series, which they surrendered 0-4. Following a below-par showing against Ireland and England across seven contested T20Is, the action moves to the ODI series, where pace leader Jasprit Bumrah will be back.

We now believe that the time is right to make a change for the Test team as we target victory in the Ashes next summer." &nbsp;McCullum took charge as the England head coach in 2022, with Ben Stokes replacing Joe Root as the captain at the same time. The pair did wonders at the start, winning 10 of the first 11 Tests, but results began to deteriorate after that. Despite bringing an uncharacteristic and unprecedented attacking flair to their Test cricket, England faced heavy defeats in India and Australia, leading to Stokes’ shock retirement soon after. Although external factors and fallout with the ECB also led to Stokes’ exit,&nbsp;McCullum's departure surprised no one. &nbsp;As England’s Test coach, McCullum won 21 matches, drew twice and lost 20 Tests, with seven of those coming in England’s last nine matches. His tenure, however, started and ended against his home country, New Zealand, against whom he began his stint with a 3-0 win in England and concluded with a 1-2 loss in the latest outing. &nbsp;"I've absolutely loved coaching the Test side, and I'm incredibly proud of what we've achieved together," McCullum said. "There've been some unbelievable highs and a few tough days along the way, but that's all part of taking on a challenge like this. It's been a privilege and an honour, and I'm grateful. Grateful to the players, the staff and the fans who supported us on the journey. &nbsp;"I wish the Test team nothing but success. There's a hell of a lot of talent in that dressing room, and they're a special bunch of lads. I'll always be backing the boys, with a smile on my face, and hoping they keep taking the game on.

Lewis had reached that unbeaten score from 62 deliveries, striking 12 fours and six sixes. Also Read - Why do England fans sing Wonderwall?

For India, it was another disappointing outcome under newly appointed T20I captain Shreyas Iyer, who has now endured consecutive series defeats. Most runs in T20Is

Virat Kohli scored 4,188 runs in 125 T20Is for India between 2010 and 2024, while Jos Buttler has now amassed 4,212 runs in 160 matches.

Team India suffers its first T20I series clean sweep against England, with the hosts winning the five-match series 4-0 to take over the number one spot on the team rankings. Powered by Jos Buttler’s brilliant 131, complemented by captain Harry Brook’s unbeaten 95, England posted a mammoth 257 for three in the first innings. Sam Curran returned with three wickets and Adil Rashid with two as England restricted India to 201 for eight in the fifth and final T20I in Southampton to win the match and the series. The newly appointed India T20I captain Shreyas Iyer has lost back-to-back series on this UK tour.&nbsp;India won the toss and elected to bowl first. The visitors made a couple of changes to their playing XI, with the most significant being the dropping of Vaibhav Sooryavanshi; Sanju Samson, who was dropped after three poor outings, returned to the top. All-rounder Suryansh Shedge also got a chance in this dead rubber. With no Varun Chakaravarthy and Harshit Rana, India’s depleted bowling attack bore the brunt of a ruthless England onslaught. &nbsp;Despite removing the dangerous Phil Salt, the Indian bowlers failed to put England’s back against the wall. Veteran Buttler and Brook stitched a record-breaking 233-run stand for the second, smashing Indian bowlers to all parts of the ground. Buttler, who was missing his Midas touch, brought his A-game to the table and smashed his second T20I hundred – a mouth-watering 131 off just 64 balls. He clobbered eight sixes and 12 fours in his marathon innings.

Barring the front two quicks, Arshdeep Singh and Prasidh Krishna, who conceded fewer than 10 runs per over, three bowlers went over 13. Shivam Dube, who bowled the penultimate over, also conceded 22 runs but picked up two wickets, including Buttler and Jacob Bethell.<h2>World Champions Flop in England</h2>India had already surrendered the T20I series, but pride and a compensatory win were all they fought for in the final T20I, and much to their disappointment, they failed in their final attempt. Samson and Abhishek opened the innings but couldn’t get going, as the two departed inside the first six overs. &nbsp;Shreyas Iyer, India’s top scorer in this series, joined Ishan Kishan in the middle, and the pair added 55 for the third wicket. Even after Iyer’s dismissal, India was very much in the run chase, but two more wickets in the next five overs broke their momentum. Under-fire Tilak Varma scored 53 off 25 balls, but even that wasn’t enough as England won the match by 56 runs and the series 4-0. &nbsp;The two teams will face off in the three-match ODI series starting July 14 at Lord’s.

IND vs ENG, 5th T20I: When and where to watch live streaming in India?

England captain Harry Brook has made it clear that climbing to the top of the ICC men’s T20I rankings is his team’s next big target after wrapping up the series against India. Following England’s dominant performances, Brook said securing the No. 1 ranking has become the side’s biggest motivation. A convincing nine-wicket win in the fourth T20I at Bristol handed England an unbeatable 3-0 lead in the five-match series. Victory in the final game at Southampton would see England overtake India and become the world’s top-ranked men’s T20I side.&nbsp;"We've been told if we win the next game, we go to world No.1 and that's definitely a prize that we're eyeing up," Brook said after the Bristol win.&nbsp;“India are a strong side. They probably haven’t been as good as they have been over the last couple of years, but we’re really happy with the way that we’ve executed our plans.”&nbsp;“To beat India 4-0 would be a pretty special series win.

We’ve been adapting to the surfaces and conditions really well.&nbsp;“We had a good World Cup. We just fell just short of 250 in a chase at the Wankhede, which is incredible.”&nbsp;Despite already sealing the series, Brook stressed that England’s focus remains firmly on ending it with another victory.&nbsp;"I think it might have changed the mood a little bit, but we've still got one more game to play.

Shree Charani's rapid rise in international cricket reached another milestone as she received her maiden Test cap against England Women at Lord's.

Former India wicketkeeper-batter Dinesh Karthik has called out India T20I skipper Shreyas Iyer for using too harsh words after 125-run loss in the third T20I of the ongoing series against England. India were bowled out for a mere 76 run in chase of 202 in Notthingham on July 7, falling 0-2 behind in the five-match series with the first game being washed out. Iyer was not happy after the latest loss, his fourth as captain in as many completed matches, but his choice of words did not go down well with Karthik.<h2>What did Karthik say about Shyreas?</h2>"Yes, India did not bat well. Probably one of the worst batting performances in a long time. But it was interesting, maybe odd, you can say, for the captain to come quite hard at the batting unit. He used the word atrocious to describe their batting, he used the word awful as well," Karthik said on Cricbuzz.Also Read - <a href="https://www.wionews.com/sports/icc-questions-ecb-over-protocol-breach-by-timing-of-ben-stokes-retirement-video-release-pmoa-regulations-england-vs-new-zealand-t-1783558346421">ICC contacts ECB over protocol breach of Stokes' retirement video release timing</a><h2>What Iyer had said after India were 76 all-out?</h2>"It was atrocious. Losing by such a big margin isn't acceptable. First things first, we have to accept this loss and go back to the drawing board. It wasn't a 200 wicket. Losing four in the powerplay didn't create momentum, lost it there. You can plan a lot, once you come into the ground you have to adapt, figure out lengths. Hard lengths helped, we didn't execute. When you're chasing, you have to set patterns and our execution was off. Great opportunity to come back strong. We've played awful cricket but lots to learn as well. Players have to figure out ways to create impact. Every individual has to work on creating impact and taking responsibility," Iyer had said at the post-match presentation.<h2>What is next for India in T20Is?</h2>After losing a historic first series against Ireland 0-2, India are looking down the barrell against England as well. With two more matches left in the series, India have a chance to draw level by winning rest of the two matches.

The ICC has asked the ECB to explain the timing of releasing Ben Stokes’ retirement video midway through the third Test against New Zealand at Trent Bridge, which included a speech he gave to his teammates ahead of the fourth day’s play inside the dressing room. Just before tea on the penultimate day of the deciding Test in Nottingham, the ECB released video footage of Stokes announcing his retirement on the screens at the ground and on their social media handles. That, however, appeared to be a breach of an ICC protocol, for which the apex body has written to the ECB, seeking a formal reply.&nbsp;Per a BBC report, the ICC wrote to the ECB on the eve of the Women’s T20 World Cup Final at Lord’s last Sunday (Jul 5), where ECB chair Richard Thompson met ICC chairman Jay Shah.&nbsp;Also read| <a href="https://www.wionews.com/sports/ishan-kishan-abhishek-sharma-top-t20i-rankings-for-batters-india-nightmare-uk-tour-1783543063328">Ishan Kishan, Abhishek Sharma top T20I charts amid India's nightmare UK tour</a> &nbsp;Concerning the video release, the ICC alleges that publishing the footage before the conclusion of the Test match is a breach of its minimum standards governing Players’ and Match Officials’ Areas (PMOA) at international matches. The ICC’s letter also cites Article 2.2.11 of the PMOA regulations, which requires national cricket boards to “ensure that there are no fixed or temporary video cameras or other recording equipment set up within any dressing room used by the teams for the purposes of broadcasting video or audio footage.”

The report also added that the governing body had earlier informed all members not to release any footage captured inside the PMOA, including any audio or video, before the end of a match; the ICC, however, introduced these stringent guidelines to strengthen the sport’s anti-corruption framework by safeguarding dressing rooms and other restricted areas during international matches. &nbsp;Speaking on his decision to retire after stumps on the fourth day, Stokes said the timing of the announcement had been coordinated between his management team and the ECB. &nbsp;“I just said, ‘You guys work with Michael Lumb and Neil Fairbrother, who work with me, and you guys just come up with a plan,'” Stokes said. &nbsp;Ironically, Stokes was in the middle of his spell when the ECB decided to release his footage on the big screens, with the English all-rounder quickly picking up a wicket soon after to the loudest cheer from the crowd.&nbsp; &nbsp;Neither the ICC nor the ECB has publicly commented on this matter.

The ICC has demanded a formal explanation from the ECB over a potential protocol breach regarding the mid-Test release of Ben Stokes' retirement video.

The ICC has asked the ECB to explain the timing of releasing Ben Stokes’ retirement video midway through the third Test against New Zealand at Trent Bridge, which included a speech he gave to his teammates ahead of the fourth day’s play inside the dressing room. Just before tea on the penultimate day of the deciding Test in Nottingham, the ECB released video footage of Stokes announcing his retirement on the screens at the ground and on their social media handles. That, however, appeared to be a breach of an ICC protocol, for which the apex body has written to the ECB, seeking a formal reply. Per a BBC report, the ICC wrote to the ECB on the eve of the Women’s T20 World Cup Final at Lord’s last Sunday (Jul 5), where ECB chair Richard Thompson met ICC chairman Jay Shah.

The ICC’s letter also cites Article 2.2.11 of the PMOA regulations, which requires national cricket boards to “ensure that there are no fixed or temporary video cameras or other recording equipment set up within any dressing room used by the teams for the purposes of broadcasting video or audio footage.”

Amid Team India’s ongoing horror UK tour, their star batters Ishan Kishan (1st rank) and Abhishek Sharma (2nd rank) have topped the batting charts in the latest T20I rankings. The two left-handers have featured in all games since the start of the tour, but have failed to guide the team home in any. In five contested matches thus far, one of which was abandoned due to rain, India has lost four games, two to Ireland and as many to England, conceding the series on both occasions. Despite all, the Indian batters continue to dominate the rankings for T20I batters.&nbsp;Abhishek has been the top scorer across both camps, smashing 112 in three innings, including two fifties. He also scored a fifty against Ireland in the series opener in Belfast. Kishan, on the other hand, has been far from his best, accumulating just 62 runs in three matches against England. He has hit seven fours and just one six at a strike rate of 121.57, whereas Abhishek’s strike rate reads a staggering 203.64.&nbsp;Also read| <a href="https://www.wionews.com/sports/ind-vs-eng-4th-t20i-when-and-where-to-watch-live-streaming-in-india-1783510115984">IND vs ENG, 4th T20I: When and where to watch live streaming in India?</a> &nbsp;Even though such numbers are enough for them to retain their spots on the T20I rankings for batters, they were not enough to help India cross the winning line.&nbsp; &nbsp;Such was the wrath they faced that India lost the recently concluded 3rd T20I in Nottingham by 125 runs – their biggest margin of defeat in this format.&nbsp; &nbsp;Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, 15, who replaced Sanju Samson at the top, fell cheaply, with Abhishek and Kishan also failing to help India during the run chase.<h2>Iyer, Bethell among gainers</h2>While the newly-appointed T20I captain Shreyas Iyer was amongst the highest gainers following his 68 in the first T20I and 37 in the second game, jumping an astonishing 425 places to the joint 93rd position, England’s newest star Jacob Bethell jumped seven places to number eight. Bethell starred for England in the second T20I, scoring an unbeaten 76 off 46 balls to beat India by four wickets.&nbsp; &nbsp;On the other hand, all-rounder Sam Curran enjoyed a productive week by jumping 12 places to 108th position among batters and 12 to 71st in the bowling rankings.
