DTVHINDIECB’s plan to privatise The Hundred is getting delayed, know the whole matter here
According to Vikram Banerjee, director of business operations at ECB, it will take them some time to find the right partner who will bring not just money but also expertise. England and Wales Cricket Board (Image Source: ECB) The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) had earlier announced that they have started the process of privatising the eight teams participating in The Hundred tournament. According to Vikram Banerjee, Director of Business Operations at the ECB, it will take them some time to find the right partner who will not only bring money but also their expertise. According to ESPNcricinfo, each county involved in The Hundred has a 51% stake – which they can either hold on to or sell for money. The ECB has the other 49%, for which they are looking for a buyer. The money they get from selling the 49% stake will be distributed between the first-class counties, Marylebone Cricket Club and the recreational game. “The most important thing is whether we find the right partners. If it takes a little while, that’s fine. We’ve been running for four years and so, if in this first round, we find that either the values are not there for one or all the teams, or the right partner is not there for one or all the teams, that’s fine. We’ll just keep running it, we’ll do another year. My priority is to get the right partners and make them amazing and help us grow,” Banerjee told the Business of Sport podcast. I think it is possible: Vikram Banerjee Vikram Banerjee further said, ‘If we do not find the right partner, for example for London Spirit, then we will hold it and work with MCC for another year and then try it next year. I think it is possible. We want to completely confirm this deal in the next 6 months.’ Meanwhile, in August, The Telegraph reported that GMR Group, the co-owners of Delhi Capitals, agreed a £120 million deal to buy Hampshire, which will also see them own 51% of Southern Brave. However, this has not been made official yet. According to the report, the ECB has held extensive discussions with foreign investors. Apart from GMR Group, Sun Group, which owns Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL, is currently in talks with the owner of Northern Superchargers.

After the selection of the Pakistani team for the first Test against England, Ahmed Shahzad asked sharp questions to PCB
England will soon tour Pakistan for a three-match Test series Ahmed Shehzad (Image Credit- Twitter X) Recently, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has announced the 15-member Pakistan team for the first match of the upcoming three-match Test series against England. After the selection of this team, experienced cricketer Ahmed Shehzad has been seen criticizing the PCB fiercely. Let us tell you that for the first match against England in Multan, PCB has not selected Kamran Ghulam and Mohammad Ali in the team, who were part of the Pakistani team in the two-match home Test series against Bangladesh. However, during this time they did not get a chance to play, but when the team was selected against England, their selection was ignored. So now Shahzad has slammed the selectors and accused them of personal bias. Amidst the news of Aamir Jamal and Shaheen Afridi’s injuries, Shahzad is very surprised to see Mohammad Ali not being selected. Ahmed Shahzad gave a big statement Let us tell you that after the selection of the Pakistani team for the first Test against England, Ahmed Shahzad has posted a video on his official X account. In this video, Shahzad said- Kamran Ghulam has been ignored once again. I don’t understand, Khurram Shahzad is injured and Aamer Jamal is also not fully fit. Shaheen Shah Afridi is also not fully fit, yet you did not include Mohammad Ali, I don’t understand what options they have in this. Shahzad further said- How do you justify not selecting Kamran Ghulam and Sahibzada Farhan in the team? What sin did they commit? Is it because they bat in the same position where Babar bats? When Yousuf was the coach, he left everything to two-three players. Yousuf is now the selector and this is the team he is selecting. Give me a logic why Kamran Ghulam was left out? Pakistan team for the first test match against England Shan Masood (captain), Saud Shakeel (vice-captain), Aamir Jamal, Abdullah Shafique, Abrar Ahmed, Babar Azam, Mir Hamza, Mohammad Huraira, Mohammad Rizwan (wicketkeeper), Naseem Shah, Noman Ali, Saim Ayub, Salman Ali Agha, Sarfraz Ahmed (wicketkeeper) and Shaheen Shah Afridi.

After a brilliant innings in the third ODI against Australia, Harry Brook has given a big statement. You have to adopt a fearless attitude – Harry Brook Before the third ODI, Harry Brooke said, “Who cares if you get out on the boundary or anywhere in the field” This comment of Brook went viral and cricket pundits started questioning him. After the match, Harry Brook said that people took his comment in the wrong way. He just wanted to play fearlessly and did not want to think much about other things. According to BBC, Harry Brooke said after the third ODI, People took it a bit the wrong way. You have to go out there and play fearlessly and almost have an attitude of who cares. It’s not like who cares if we lose. We still want to win but you don’t want to go out there and play with the fear of getting out. We have seen so many times in Test environments how people are getting out. You have to have a fearless attitude and dominate the bowlers. Harry Brook has been facing criticism for his poor batting for some time now. He used to get a good start but was unable to make the innings big. Speaking further, Brook said, I think this summer I’ve been playing off and on, scoring a lot of 30s and 40s. I think I’m back in good shape again, playing the ball late and keeping my head steady.

I had some pain in my back, and I got scans done due to a strain in the elbow, which is not uncommon for fast bowlers. I thought maybe I would need an injection and I would be fine, but they scanned the elbow and found a strain. I was probably playing with it so much that it happened.

As part of this, it is vital that our players are paid the right wages, and that cricket is seen not only as a viable career option for women, but as an attractive option. Every decision we are making is about making cricket as attractive a sport for young girls as it is for boys. We know we still have work to do in this area but we are moving fast.
