(Photo Source: Twitter) Former player Brian Lara believes that just investing more money in the West Indies cricket system will not be enough to improve their on-field performance. According to Brian Lara, it is very important for the players to perform even better to win the match. The former player is not at all happy with the performance of his team in the currently being played England vs West Indies match. West Indies were all out for 121 runs on the first day of the first Test being played at Lord’s against England. Not only this, England scored 371 runs after losing all the wickets in their first innings. By the end of the second day’s play, West Indies have lost 6 wickets for 79 runs in their second innings. The team is still 171 runs behind England. Speaking on the BBC World Service Stumped Podcast, Brian Lara has blamed the West Indies Cricket Board. Brian Lara said, ‘If you put 100 million or 200 million dollars in the bank account of West Indies, will it change their way of playing? I don’t think so. We are not using the talent we have properly. West Indies cricket has not taken any significant steps to attract sponsors. Not only this, they have not done any work on the important things that people need. All this is very important.’ Brian Lara made a special appeal to West Indies cricket The former West Indies player further said, ‘We don’t have anyone coming from the gate side. I reached Lord’s on Wednesday at 7:30 am and people were waiting outside. I saw this when I was a kid and people used to wait for the gate to open at 5:30 am in Queen’s Park in Trinidad. Now this is not happening. Even if you reach there at 11:00 am, the stadium will still be empty.’ Talking about the first test, this is the last match of James Anderson’s cricketing career. England has so far put pressure on West Indies in this match and the hosts would definitely want to win it. England now has to take just four more wickets to win the first test. A total of three match test series is being played between these two teams. 5 Australian players who scored half-century in their debut IPL match IPL 2024: These 11 foreign players took crores of rupees but flopped IPL 2024: 5 players who hit the most sixes in the 19th and 20th overs of IPL 5 fastest bowlers in IPL history Who are the head coaches of all 10 teams in IPL 2024?

Shahid Afridi said that when he was appointed captain, the former all-rounder was not given many opportunities but Babar Azam is being given continuous opportunities and despite this, Pakistan has not won a single ICC event under his captaincy. A video of Shahid Afridi is going viral in which he said, ‘They should first decide on the captain or coach and then give time. As far as Babar is concerned, he has also captained a lot and has been given a lot of opportunities. As soon as the World Cup is over, the captain is the first one to be blamed. He has got enough opportunities in 2 to 3 World Cups and two to three Asia Cups.’ Pakistan had a disappointing performance in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 Let us tell you, Pakistan’s performance was very poor in this entire tournament. The team was first defeated by America and then Pakistan had to face defeat against India as well. Babar Azam also batted very poorly in this entire tournament and he was being heavily criticized.

Australia’s performance in the group stage was quite good and the team secured its place in the Super 8. However, Australia faced a lot of trouble in the Super 8 and the team lost against Afghanistan and India.

However, after the defeat against Afghanistan, the team’s morale was completely broken. Aaron Finch told Crictracker, ‘I think the team will be very disappointed that they could not secure their place in the semi-finals. The kind of team Australia had, they should have secured their place in the semi-finals. There is no doubt that Australia must have felt very bad. They were strong contenders to win this tournament but in the end they fell short. The team’s fielding was very poor in this tournament, due to which they had to face a lot of problems at different places. However, this tournament was very good for some players like Marcus Stoinis. Stoinis performed well with both bat and ball for Australia.

She said that the fast bowler all-rounder has started performing brilliantly in the last 6 years. The Indian women’s cricket team defeated South Africa 3-0 in the three-match ODI series. After this, the hosts also won the only Test series. Currently, a three-match T20 series is being played between the two teams. In the second T20 match, Pooja Vastrakar took two wickets for 37 runs in four overs. The match was cancelled due to rain but South Africa, batting first, scored 177 runs in 20 overs. Speaking on Sports18, Veda Krishnamurthy said about Pooja Vastrakar’s bowling spell, ‘You can say that Pooja has performed exactly as expected in this series. It has been 6 years since her debut. As far as I remember, Pooja made her international debut in 2018. There were a lot of expectations from her but she could not live up to them.’ The veteran player further said, ‘I think her confidence has increased a lot after she defended those runs in the second ODI. Since then, her game has improved a lot and she is bowling with a lot of control. She understood her length well and is now working on it.’ Reema Malhotra also gave her opinion on Pooja Vastrakar’s bowling Reema Malhotra said, ‘Most of her balls were of good length. When you bowl full, you are making mistakes. She used her experience well and bowled with variations. When Renuka Singh Thakur was not playing, her work doubled. In the second match, she was the main bowler of her team. If Jemima had not dropped the catch, Pooja would have taken three wickets. Pooja bowled very well in this match and constantly put pressure on the South African batsmen. I liked her performance very much. 5 Australian players who scored half-century in their debut IPL match IPL 2024: These 11 foreign players took crores of rupees but flopped IPL 2024: 5 players who hit the most sixes in the 19th and 20th overs of IPL 5 fastest bowlers in IPL history Who are the head coaches of all 10 teams in IPL 2024?

Wasim Jaffer became a fan of Hardik Pandya’s great performance in T20 World Cup, said this big thing

Wasim Jaffer praised Hardik Pandya Let us tell you that through a video uploaded on his YouTube channel regarding Hardik Pandya’s performance in the T20 World Cup, Jaffer said- I would like to especially mention Hardik Pandya, because he was under pressure regarding the T20 World Cup. But despite this, I salute him for the way he came forward and performed with bat and ball. Jaffer further said- We all knew that he was under pressure before the start of the tournament, but he raised his hand and performed well. According to me, Suryakumar Yadav’s catch in the final was a match-changing moment. If he had not taken the catch, it would have become a six, and then it would have been an easy task for David Miller to score 10 runs in 5 balls. India won the T20 World Cup after 17 years It is worth noting that the Indian team has won the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup title after 17 years under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma.
