Mumbai: On 27th Aug Delhi Capitals confirmed that Jason Roy opts out of IPL due to "personal reasons" Daniel Sams to replace him the franchise. Roy has also been ruled out of England's upcoming T20I series against Pakistan owing to a side strain although he'll remain with the national side in a bid to regain full fitness for the series against Australia. Sams who currently came in limelight this year As he was the highest wicket taker in big bash league it would be interesting to see what he has to offer in IPL. Roy becomes the second England player at Delhi Capitals who won't be a part of this edition. Chris Woakes had pulled out of the tournament earlier this year to stay fresh ahead of the England summer but he will not be able to make it despite IPL taking place in September. Capitals have signed Anrich Nortje in his place. Sam's inclusion will certainly strengthen the pace attack of Delhi capitals as the 27 year old is also in line to make his internation

On 25th Aug, When Messi announced that he wants to leave the club barcelona, it shooked the whole football fans from around the world. As he has decided to leave the the club he has been part for past 17 years. The end is near said by Messi while collecting his sixth Ballon d'or his every fans heart skipped a beat however, everyone deep down felt he would leave sometime quite soon. it hurt Barcelona fans to imagine a time when Messi stopped playing, it is worse to contemplate a time when he only stopped playing for them. This isn’t really that Messi is going; it’s when he’s going, why he’s going, and how he’s going. Where he is going, too: Manchester City, Paris Saint-Germain, Juventus, it doesn’t matter much. What matters is that it’s to another club. At least when he said the end was near, they imagined getting there together – his final game, like his first, would be in a Barcelona shirt, a fond if tearful farewell, a collective celebration which will never happen now. The react

  There is an increasing obsession to convince ourselves that everything we are seeing is the best it has ever been. It is a rampant obsession in almost every modern sport. There is a lot of discussion amongst the cricket fraternity currently about whether this bowler dominated era is making batting harder than it has ever been before. When I say era it would probably be more correct to say half decade, but following on from a superb piece on cricinfo a few weeks ago the debate needs to be expanded to look at how effective the batting against these bowling attacks is, too. The most common thing to do when looking at players past and present is to put too much emphasis on comparing stats directly against one another. Whilst having Test match averages such as Don Bradman’s 99.94 means we know who was probably the best batsman to grace the game, the ability to compare Mike Atherton’s career average of 37.69 against Rory Burns’s average to date of 33.90 is much trickier. The game has chang

Chris Gayle is set to link up with his Kings XI Punjab team-mates in the UAE on time after returning two negative Covid-19 tests. There had been reports that he had attended the birthday celebrations of sprinter Usain Bolt - who has since tested positive and is currently in home isolation - in Kingston last Friday. Gayle, the highest run-scorer in T20s, posted the news on Instagram Stories, with videos of his swab testing, prior to his flight to the UAE. Upon arrival in the UAE, he will be tested at the airport, followed by a six-day quarantine with further testing on days one, three and five. Only once those are cleared can team members start training in the biosecure bubble. According to Jamaica's Ministry of Health update on August 23, Jamaica had 16 new Covid-19 cases in the previous 24 hours, bringing the country's total up to a confirmed 1,529. Gayle last played competitive cricket for Chattogram Challengers at the Bangladesh Premier League in January. He was to be part o

Jamaica's health ministry confirmed late on Monday that Bolt, who holds world records in the 100m and 200m distance, had tested positive after he posted a video on social media around midday saying he was waiting to hear back on his results.

MS DHONI; STEPPING ON KAPIL DEV SHOES MS Dhoni’s announcement that he has retired from international cricket triggered a number of analyses which point out that he was not just a cricket star. His influenced extended beyond sport and he served as a source of inspiration for people in other fields. The trajectory of Dhoni’s career does encapsulate important transitions in Indian cricket. He is perhaps the best example of the contribution of smaller cities in providing first-rate talent for the national team. Given his background, a lot more Indians can relate to Dhoni than some of his contemporaries. Dhoni also played an important role in the spread of the popularity of T20 cricket in India. The format would surely have been the most popular one in India over a period of time. But India’s unexpected victory in the 2007 T20 World Cup under Dhoni’s captaincy compressed its evolution in the country. Impressive as these things are, Dhoni is not a pioneer. He was preceded in most things by K
