The third day’s match was cancelled due to rain. infoNew Zealand vs Afghanistan. (Photo Source: X(TWitter/BlackCapz) The only Test match between Afghanistan and New Zealand was to be played at Greater Noida Sports Complex Ground in Greater Noida, but in the three-day game, the toss has not even taken place. Due to rain and bad outfield, the game was spoiled on the first and second day, while the same happened on the third day. There was not much rain at night, but on the third day, rain started from the morning itself. Due to this, the officials cancelled the third day’s play at the beginning of the third day itself. In this way, the coin could not be tossed on the third day as well. Now the chances of this match happening are very less and there is a high chance that the match may be cancelled. This test match was to be played from 9 September but it rained that night so the match did not start at its scheduled time. Although the pitch was fine for the match, some parts of the outfield were flooded. AFG vs NZ: Test match did not start despite the efforts of the ground staff The ground staff tried their best to start the match, but they were unsuccessful. The umpires and match officials inspected the pitch and the ground several times, but despite several inspections, the toss could not be conducted in this match. On the second day, the ground staff used a new trick and wherever there was water on the ground, the grass and land was dug out and the grass from the practice ground was planted there. But still nothing special was achieved from this. Despite the grass being planted, there was water in some parts and the ground was not suitable for playing the match. Due to this, the match was cancelled on the second day as well. The match was expected to start on the third day, but the ground had become wet again due to the rain at night. More than half of the ground was covered, but still there was water in many parts. Apart from this, there was heavy rain at the time of the match starting on the third day and the situation became even worse. Due to this, the third day’s play had to be canceled. The Afghanistan Cricket Board has said that if the conditions are good on the fourth day, then the match will start at 9 o’clock and 98 overs will be played. But this does not seem possible right now.
Steve Smith’s opening slot in Australia team in danger due to poor performance, know what coach Andrew McDonald said?
Smith has not been able to impress as an opener in the last four Test matches Steve Smith (Photo Source: X/Twitter) Cricket fans are eagerly waiting for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy to start between India and Australia. It is worth noting that this time this series is going to start in Australia from 22 November. Along with this, fans are curious to know whether Steve Smith will be seen opening in this series or not? So, recently the team’s head coach Andrew McDonald has made a big statement regarding Smith’s opening batting position in the Australian Test team. McDonald says that he has not yet reached any final decision, but discussions are going on around it. Andrew McDonald gave a big statement Let us tell you that recently while talking to SEN about Steve Smith’s opening slot in the Australia Test team, Andrew McDonald said – This is the question on everyone’s lips. Although we are keeping an eye on it, we have not taken any concrete decision about it. There is a lot of speculation about it. But it is in discussions, I would be lying if I said there are no talks going on. There is a lot of conversation going on about what will happen in Test cricket in terms of the coming summer. McDonald further said- Obviously, if we make a change with Steve Smith, then someone else will have to go for opening batting. We have seen Cameron Green succeed at number four. There are some layers added to taking such decisions, but at the moment nothing is confirmed and decided. On the other hand, if we talk about Smith’s performance as an opener, in the last four matches he has played, he has scored a total of 171 runs at a modest average of 28.50, which is much less than his career average (56.97). He has been handling this role in the Australian team since David Warner retired.
Read the interesting story of that match, when the India vs New Zealand ODI match was stopped due to the sun
This incident happened during the year 2019 Team India (Image Credit- Twitter X) There are many reasons during a cricket match when the start of the game gets delayed due to some reason. Many times it has been seen due to technology, rain, storm, faulty flood lights and fans entering the field. However, if we tell you that once the match was halted due to the sun, would you believe it? But for your information, let us tell you that this is absolutely true. The first ODI match played during India’s tour of New Zealand in 2019 was halted due to the sun. It is worth noting that the first match of that tour of India was played at McLean Park, Napier. Usually the pitches in a stadium are situated in the north-south direction, but in Napier the pitch is in the east-west direction, due to which the sunlight was falling directly in the eyes of the players in that match. After this, Indian team’s opening batsman Shikhar Dhawan complained to the umpire about this. Umpire Shaun Haig discussed this incident in an interview and said that the sun is directly in the eyes of the batsmen. Therefore, we have to consider the safety of the players and the umpires. Therefore, we have decided to postpone the game until the situation improves. This was the first time in my 14 years that I have seen something like this happen on a cricket field. The good news is that we have 30 minutes of extra time. We are hoping to be back in 30 minutes and it will still be a 50-over game. India won the match by 8 wickets On the other hand, if we tell you about the situation of that match, India won the match by 8 wickets. Due to rain, the match was reduced to 38-38 overs. Batting first, New Zealand had set a target of 157 runs for India to win, which India achieved by losing 2 wickets. Dhawan remained unbeaten by scoring 75* runs in the match.

I hope to become fully fit as soon as possible. The last few months have been very difficult: Lance Morris Despite being injured, Lance Morris has worked on his fitness. Lance Morris further said, ‘It is very disappointing that I have to stop for two months. Right now I am at that stage of my career that I have a contract with Cricket Australia and I have to get fit as soon as possible and return to the team. The best part is that my fitness has been good and I feel stronger than ever. The bad part is that if I had ignored it, things could have been very bad.

ENG vs SL: ‘Questionable decision on a turning pitch’: Eoin Morgan on decision to leave Ollie Pope out due to bad light
Due to poor light, some overs of the third day of the ongoing second Test between England and Sri Lanka could not be played. Ollie Pope (Image Credit- Twitter X) The second Test match between England and Sri Lanka (ENG vs SL) is going on at Lord’s. The third day of the game ended yesterday on 31 August. On the third day, England set a strong target of 483 runs for Sri Lanka to win, while by the end of the day’s play, England had taken the wickets of Pathum Nissanka and Nishan Madhushka in Sri Lanka’s second innings. However, England could have bowled a few more overs in the match, but the game could not proceed due to poor light. But at this time captain Ollie Pope did not consider it necessary to put the fast bowlers on bowling again and he went to the dressing room with the team. So, on the third day of the match, due to the bounce and turn of the pitch, he could have got some overs bowled by spin bowlers, but he did not do so. On the other hand, now a big statement of former captain Eoin Morgan has come out on this decision of Ollie Pope. Morgan says that this decision of Pope on the turning pitch is suspicious. Eoin Morgan gave a big statement Let us tell you that after the end of the third day of the second Test between England and Sri Lanka, Eoin Morgan said in a discussion with Sky Sports – I think this is a questionable decision. The reason behind this is the entire last hour of the game, the reason is darkness. There is a reason why fast bowlers cannot bowl. This is dangerous for all the people involved in playing the match. I completely understand the concern about the condition of the ball, but you are talking about England’s premium fingerspinner in Shoaib Bashir who needs to bowl. The ball is moving and bouncing, I question the decision, you have runs to play. Everything is in your favour, but still you are sitting in the dressing room.

The team will then practice at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium from August 18-20 before the first match on August 21.
