RIP Test Cricket (in India)

21 hours ago by Venkat Ananth

Dileep Premachandran has come up with perhaps a known argument - This is a series where the No. 1 ranking is at stake. You’d think that results mattered. But while Australia, South Africa and Sri Lanka leave little to chance as they pursue that ambition, India are content with being world leaders: a ...

Ind SL T 1 Day 5 Stumps: Mindless Run Fest Ends in Predictable Draw

1 day ago by Sreelata

This save was on expected cards. Unless pressure got to India, there was little chance that the first Test between India and Sri Lanka at Motera in Ahmedabad was going to see a result on day five. Overnight on 190 for two, apart from losing Amit Mishra, India did not suffer too many hiccups as Gauta ...
