Indian Cricket Ministry

🚨 Massive blunder by Sony Sports Network: They added Suryakumar Yadav in the India vs Eng promo, even though he has been dropped. Meanwhile, they didn't include Shreyas Iyer, who has become the captain. Looks like they posted an early-edited promo 🤦

🚨 Nasser Hussain on India vs Pakistan rivalry: India vs Pakistan is one of the biggest rivalry in sport generally. But in the women's game, I think Australia vs India is currently the biggest rivalry. I'm being a bit unfair to Pakistan, but when I went to watch India play Pakistan, I felt the result was predictable before the match even started. The teams weren't on an equal level competitively.

🚨 Nasser Hussain claimed the gap between top teams and Pakistan and Bangladesh due to unequal franchise-cricket opportunities: Am I being a bit harsh on Pakistan, actually. I sort of felt I knew the result of India vs Pakistan even before I even turned up to the game. It feels unfair; it’s an uneven playing field. When you look at the bigger sides, it becomes a self-perpetuating cycle. They play more franchise cricket, which helps them improve. As they improve, their national teams get stronger, and because their national teams are stronger, their players get even more opportunities to play franchise cricket. That makes it difficult for countries like Bangladesh and Pakistan, whose players do not get as many chances to participate in major franchise leagues such as The Hundred. Yet there are excellent cricketers in these teams. Obviously, India–Pakistan is a massive rivalry in any sport. However, in women’s cricket, I actually see Australia–India as the biggest rivalry.

🚨 Age is just a number in sports: - Vozinha made his FIFA World Cup debut at the age of 40. - Produced 7 saves against one of the best teams in Europe. - Kept a clean sheet and earned his country a valuable point. Spain fired 27 shots, but the Cape Verde captain stood tall between the posts 🔥🫡

🚨🗣️ Brendon McCullum backs Ben Stokes and Gus Atkinson following the nightclub incident: When I first found out about it, I was slightly bewildered, if I'm being honest. Then you go through a range of emotions. You go from being bewildered to angry, and then to feeling kind of gutted. But very quickly, my overall emotion turned to worry and concern for Ben in particular. Since then, it has been about how we support these guys, while not overlooking the fact that they have not lived up to the standards we have set for ourselves. For me, it's very much about how we support these guys through the next stage, particularly Ben. That is very much where my mind is at my worry for him. I'm worried about Ben. That's it," McCullum said. "I'll leave it at that."

During the Rising Star Tournament, Jitesh Sharma didn't allow Vaibhav Sooryavanshi to bat in the Super Over against Bangladesh. Today, Tilak Varma didn't allow Vaibhav Sooryavanshi to take a strike in the Super Over. They really underestimate Vaibhav. He could have won both games.

🚨 Unfair to Rasikh Salam Dar and Kartik Tyagi India A lost back-to-back matches in the tri-series against Sri Lanka and Afghanistan. The Indian pace bowlers have really struggled to pick up wickets in the powerplay. Meanwhile, Rasikh Salam Dar, Kartik Tyagi and Sakib Hussain were very impressive throughout the IPL, but they were neither picked for the India A squad nor the senior India squad. Instead, they picked Yash Thakur, Arshad Khan, and Anshul Kamboj. Arshad did well but apart from him both Anshul and Yash were disappointed.

🚨 Vaibhav Sooryavanshi pushed a Sri Lankan player during the heated moment. - After the match ended, a Sri Lankan player said something to Vaibhav. - Vaibhav then walked towards them and pushed a Sri Lankan player. I don't know who was wrong there, but sometimes you just have to move away from such situations. Vaibhav is only 15 years old, and he should stay away from this type of situation.

🚨 Biggest blunder by the India A team management: - India A were chasing 19 runs in the Super Over. - Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and Suryansh Shedge came out to bat. - Suryansh took the strike. - He scored only 3 runs off the first 3 balls. - Then Vaibhav faced the next 3 balls and scored 6 runs and india lost the match. I know Suryansh Shedge is capable, but I think Vaibhav should have taken the strike.

🚨 Heated moment between Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and the Sri Lankan players: - India failed to chase 19 runs in the Super Over against Sri Lanka. - Then, while heading back to the dugout, some Sri Lankan players allegedly abused Vaibhav. - Vaibhav lost his cool and came back towards the crease to confront them. Hopefully, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi will learn to control his emotions in such situations.

🚨 Pakistan women's team coach Wahab Riaz on the no-handshake between India and Pakistan: See, I don't know. I left cricket a long time ago, so I don't know the reason for not shaking hands. But I think if things want to move like this, then let them move like that. It won't make a big difference.

🚨 Ashwin blamed Shubman Gill for Rohit Sharma's run-out: It was not Rohit Sharma's mistake. When you play in front of the wicket, it is the striker's call, and the non-striker needs to uphold it. Gill denied the run, and this is also not the first run-out involving him and Rohit Sharma. If the striker says yes to a run, there is no question of saying no. These basics of running between the wickets are taught in childhood. All of these are basic things.

🚨 Vaibhav Sooryavanshi dismissed for 21 (14) against Sri Lanka. 14 (12) vs SL 44 (22) vs AFG 21 (14) vs SL He scored only 79 runs in 3 innings in this series and got out while playing lofted shots. He needs to have patience and learn to play grounded shots; otherwise, he won’t survive in the longer formats. 💔

🚨 Sunil Chhetri's emotional message to Indian football fans: I get the same feeling as you sometimes, that things are not improving, that we're not going to go far, and all of that. But I'll tell you something. Because we are fans, we have to give our best towards Indian football. One day, we'll all be gone, but until then, we should have the feeling that we gave our best to Indian football. That's what I feel, and I'm pretty sure it's a good feeling for all of you fans to have. So keep giving your best. Some days we're going to lose, and some days we're going to lose badly. But there will also be good days. And when those good days come, that one triumph, that one win, that one qualification, we will all rejoice together. And it's an amazing feeling. So please don't give up hope. You have been outstanding to me throughout my life. Keep supporting football in whichever way you can. If there is any time that Indian football needs you, it's now. Please don't give up. It's okay to be sad. It's okay to raise your voices. But don't give up. ❤️🇮🇳⚽

🚨 The no-handshake policy continues: Indian captain Harmanpreet Kaur didn't shake hands with Pakistani captain Fatima Sana during the toss. Then, after the match, the Pakistani team waited 10 minutes for a handshake, but the Indian team didn't shake hands. India continues to owning Pakistan in every aspect 🔥🗿

🚨 It's high time that India stopped playing Pakistan, even in ICC tournaments. Man, there isn't even 1% competition. Even Associate nations are more competitive than Pakistan. The Indian women's team has won every ODI against Pakistan and leads the T20I head-to-head record 13-3. Man, there isn't even any competition. The same applies to the men's team as well.

🚨 Heated moment between Richa Ghosh and Fatima Sana: - India had already smashed 13 runs off the first 4 balls in the last over. - Richa was batting on 34 (16). - She was then bowled by Fatima Sana. - Fatima showed aggressive celebrations towards Richa. - But Richa didn't give a damn and walked off with a smile. These Pakistani jokers always try to bring unnecessary drama in India vs Pakistan match 😂🤦

🚨 India posted 170/6 against Pakistan in the Women's T20 World Cup. Smriti Mandhana – 68 (44) Harmanpreet Kaur – 36 (35) Richa Ghosh – 34 (17) Pakistan team is so goated that they will get all out 3 times in this total 🔥😂

🚨 Smriti Mandhana on being trolled for having muscles: I was wearing a dress where my arms were visible, and people were maybe trolling me for having good muscles, which is such a funny thing. As athletes, and even as humans, having muscles is the best thing. To have a fit and toned body, you work really hard in the gym for that. Firstly, I represent the country, and if I have to perform a certain way, I have to train a certain way. But yes, this mindset has been there for a very long time, that a girl is supposed to look a certain way. I feel it's time to break that stereotype because it's important to be fit.

Football level heated clash during the Mumbai T20 league 🥵
