Australia Women vs. India Women LIVE Score Updates, First ODI: Australia wins easily thanks to Beth Mooney's elegant 76
At the Allan Border Field in Brisbane on Tuesday, Australia won the first ODI by six wickets with 70 balls remaining. Alyssa Healy also struck a strong half century, making the run chase of 215 appear effortless. While Kashvee Gautam played a beautiful hand further down the order and Smriti Mandhana and Harmanpreet Kaur hit half-centuries, it was difficult for the Indian hitters. Jemimah Rodrigues followed immediately after Pratika Rawal and Shafali Verma fell. Soon after reaching her half-century, Mandhana fell, and India found it difficult to gain pace in the middle overs.India reached 214 all out in 48.3 overs as Harmanpreet and Kashvee's partnership for the eighth wicket helped them surpass 200. While Alana King took only one wicket but was difficult for India's hitters to dismiss, Ash Gardner took three for Australia. In India's opening game following their World Cup victory in November, Harmanpreet Kaur had previously chosen to bat first. India had won the first and third games of the multi-format series, taking a 4-2 lead (in points) after defeating Australia 2-1 in the T20I leg. Before the hosts, headed by a newcomer in Sophie Molineux, responded in the second game in Canberra to tie the series at one, the Harmanpreet-led team won the rain-affected opening Twenty20 International by 21 runs in Sydney. In Adelaide, India defeated Australia by 17 runs thanks to a stylish 82 from Smriti Mandhana.

Suryakumar believes India will win the T20 World Cup.
Suryakumar Yadav, captain of India, thinks his team can quickly recover from their defeat to South Africa and advance to the ICC Men's T20 World Cup knockout stages. India was defeated by the Proteas by 76 runs in Ahmedabad on Sunday, ending a 12-match winning streak. They now have a difficult job to defend the title they famously won in Barbados in 2024. This was India's first defeat of the T20 World Cup.In order to go to the semi-finals, Suryakumar's team will now probably need to win their remaining Super Eight games against Zimbabwe and the West Indies. However, if the Proteas stay undefeated during this round, one victory might be sufficient.Zimbabwe will be India's next opponent in Chennai on Thursday, and Suryakumar doesn't believe his squad needs to make many changes to get back to winning ways.When asked what India needs to perform well for the rest of the competition, a candid Suryakumar responded, "Hopefully, we bat well, bowl well, and field well."That's all. We'll make an effort to keep things easy. I believe we'll return strong if we play the same style of cricket that we want to play and nothing changes."India isn't anticipated to make many changes before their matches against Zimbabwe and the West Indies, but the team is worried about the performance of their top-ranked T20I batsman, Abhishek Sharma, who was dismissed cheaply for just 14 against the Proteas once more. Suryakumar laments the loss of early wickets during the run chase as India faltered in response to South Africa's score of 187/7, and the left-hander was one of three players removed during the Powerplay."If you're chasing 180-185, you can't win the game in the Powerplay, but you might lose the game in the Powerplay," the captain of India thought.

T20 World Cup, India vs. Pakistan: Salman Agha considers the "big picture" following defeat, while Suryakumar dedicates victory to India
Following a humiliating loss in a match that never lived up to its blockbuster billing, India captain Suryakumar Yadav dedicated Sunday's (February 16, 2026) Twenty20 World Cup triumph over Pakistan to supporters nationwide, while his opposite number, Salman Agha, encouraged perspective.As India amassed 175-7 and then went back to bundle out Pakistan for 114 in 18 overs, the much-anticipated showdown between the South Asian neighbors, who engaged in a military crisis that almost erupted into a full-fledged war last year, failed to ignite.Despite the tensions, the game itself went without any flashpoints, but the opposing captains did not shake hands during the toss. When the coin was flipped, Salman and Suryakumar avoided eye contact and appeared solemn. When the India captain addressed at the R. Premadasa Stadium following the game, the atmosphere was very different."This is for the Indian market. With a broad smile, the batter remarked, "We played the same brand of cricket that we wanted to play."Ishan Kishan was praised by Suryakumar for his quick 77, which helped them win.Ishan Kishan batted in the same manner as he did on the domestic circuit and in our prior games. Ishan took charge of the powerplay and had an unconventional idea."India v Pakistan is a special game for us and our country," Kishan said. "This is a crucial game. We attempted to play excellent shots, but they had fantastic spinners. We feel more confident moving further in the competition.

Pakistan Minister Establishes 'Suryakumar Yadav Condition' for Asia Cup Trophy Transfer to India
In light of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) rejecting requests for a trophy handover ceremony, Asian Cricket Council (ACC) leader Mohsin Naqvi has reportedly introduced a new condition to break the deadlock regarding the Asia Cup 2025. During an ACC meeting on Tuesday, BCCI officials Rajeev Shukla and Ashish Shelar put Naqvi on the defensive by requesting that the trophy be stored in the Asian body's Dubai office for shipping to India.Naqvi, however, demonstrated little to no willingness to comply with the requests from the Indian board. A report by the Pakistani media outlet Geo Super states that Naqvi even opposed the mention of the trophy handover in the meeting, as it was not included in the original agenda. During a virtual meeting, Naqvi informed Rajeev Shukla, "This item was not included in the agenda for the ACC meeting." Naqvi, in response to the BCCI's insistence on the trophy's return, stated: "If the Indian team wants the trophy, the captain can come to the ACC office and collect it from me. "Witnessing Naqvi's lack of cooperation, the BCCI warned the heads of the ACC and PCB that if the trophy is not transferred to the Indian team within a specified timeframe, they will lodge a complaint with the ICC concerning this issue. As PTI reported, a source stated, “It was clarified that the BCCI would lodge a complaint with the ICC, and Shelar made a brief exit from the meeting.” During the tournament, the two teams faced off three times, with India emerging victorious on each occasion, including in the final. During the event, India upheld a 'no-handshake policy' with Pakistani players, which angered the PCB.Following the Pahalgam terror attack, where Pakistan-backed terrorists killed 26 Indian tourists, tensions between the two neighbors have reached unprecedented levels.

India is overwhelmed by the mayhem at the Sharjah extravaganza.
It seemed like a dream you hoped would linger longer long before the cloud of sadness descended. As the sun set, the fans—nearly 15,000 of whom were in Sharjah—rushed through the turnstiles, raucous and ecstatic, yelling, singing, waving, and doing anything they could to catch Jemi, Harry Di, or Smriti's eye.It appeared that the days of cramming a stand with schoolchildren and giving out free sandwiches were long gone. It felt like the beginning of a new era, with all of that apathy and systemic indifference (at least in part) behind us. Now, the rocket just needed that fuel to get into orbit.For India to move from being a contender to a champion, they needed that boost. Even if their captain is walking on crutches and moonwalkers, they still need to play like one against the genuine ones, who know how to end games from difficult scenarios. The stage could hardly have been more magnificent for India.The commotion, commotion, color, and craziness were chaotic yet magnificent. Security officers who were accustomed to watching four administrators and five ground crew members argue over countless cups of Irani chai had never experienced such a last-minute tussle, where all pre-match procedures, including complex security measures, needed to be practiced.With good cause, this India vs. Australia encounter was billed as the tournament's main event. It all deserved a thriller because of its grandeur. We also got one. However, it seemed inevitable that the rock stars, who were the main attraction, would end their show in the middle of their performance. Unless Monday night is when Pakistan plays the match of their lives.India's jigsaw was clinically disassembled by Australia, leaving them with a number of problems and few answers. The captain, Harmanpreet Kaur, was devastated and appeared exhausted, both emotionally and physically, as he struggled to breathe in the unbearable October heat. India had Australia on the ropes, as they have on a few occasions, despite all the failed run-out opportunities and dropped catches, as well as the confusion surrounding Asha Sobhana's one-leg hobble shortly before the game, which nobody appeared to take seriously enough at first. Consider the semi-final of the T20 World Cup in Cape Town last year or, more recently, the T20I series in Navi Mumbai in December. Australia momentarily faltered despite India's wobble in the top order, which was caused by the absence of Shafali Verma, Smriti Mandhana, and Jemimah Rodrigues. The opposing duo of Harmanpreet and Deepti Sharma brought India

The tennis legend stated in the video post, "And I think it's the appropriate time to put an end to a career that has been long and much more successful than I could have ever imagined."Nadal is keen to end his remarkable career on a positive note, even though his choice to retire signifies the end of an era. Before retiring from the professional circuit, he will have one final opportunity to wear his nation's colors as a representative of Spain in the upcoming Davis Cup Finals. "I am very excited that my last tournament will be the final of the Davis Cup and representing my country." In addition, Nadal mentioned that winning the Davis Cup final in Seville in 2004 was one of his first and most treasured professional memories, making it a suitable way to end his career. Spain defeated the United States in that historic match, and Rafael Nadal emerged victorious over Andy Roddick.Nadal has won 22 Grand Slam titles over his storied career, placing him second on the men's all-time list, only behind Novak Djokovic, who has 24. He has won 14 French Open titles, demonstrating his unparalleled domination on Roland Garros' clay courts.

India vs. Bangladesh Kanpur nets cues for the second test Bumrah and Axar's troubles against Virat Kohli, and Bangladesh's Shakib dilemma
Jasprit Bumrah bowled Virat Kohli in the nets with about 15 deliveries under the sweltering sun at Kanpur's Green Park Stadium, and he "got him out" four times.When Kohli hit his signature cover drive on the next ball, the local cops, grounds crew, and a few journalists in the stands went crazy. Bumrah retreated and bowled at the fourth stump line, but Kohli edged it because the length was shorter this time.After that, Bumrah switched his assault to the middle and leg stumps, outwitting Kohli twice in a row. After the inside edge struck the pads on both occasions, the ball lobbed. After giving him a smile and teasing him, Bumrah said, "Aakhiri wala toh short leg ka catch tha (The short leg could have catched the last one)." Kohli grinned and went to the parallel net, where Axar Patel, Ravindra Jadeja, and Ravichandran Ashwin were bowling.Kohli's difficulties against spinners have gained notoriety in the recent past. Mehidy Hasan Miraz, an off-spinner, dismissed him for 17 in Chennai, making it the 18th occasion since 2021 that Kohli was dismissed by spinners. In the Kanpur nets, he was having trouble against the Indian spin trio as well, particularly the two left-arm spinners. In an attempt to play inside-out against Jadeja, Kohli missed three straight and appeared frustrated. But what really caught people's attention was when Axar took out the master batsman through the fence. Before Shubman Gill replaced him in the nets, that was the final ball that Kohli played.Shakib is available and fit. During Bangladesh's morning practice, Shakib Al Hasan padded up and faced the local spinners for five to seven minutes on two separate occasions. He stormed off in anger both times, heading for the Bangladeshi dressing room. Shakib bowled only 21 overs in Chennai, going wicketless, and scored 32 and 25 in Bangladesh’s 280-run loss. In the 53rd over of India's opening session, he came into the game. During the broadcast, Murali Kartik mentioned that Shakib had informed him about his shoulder and finger tingling.On Wednesday, though, Bangladesh's head coach Chandika Hathurusinghe played down worries about Shakib's fitness following his finger injury in Chennai. I have not heard from my physiotherapist or anybody else at this time. "He remains qualified for selection," Hathurusinghe informed the press.

Live Updates on the Vinesh Phogat CAS Hearing Verdict CAS postpones Vinesh Phogat's decision regarding his disqualification from the Paris Olympics until August 16.
Disqualification from the Olympics for wrestler Vinesh Phogat: On Tuesday, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), after hearing arguments from all sides, again postponed ruling on Phogat's appeal against her disqualification from the Paris Olympics until August 16. This prolongs the wait for the Indian sports community.Vinesh, who last Tuesday easily defeated Yui Susaki of Japan in the women's 50kg freestyle final, was disqualified from the gold medal match against eventual winner Sarah Hildebrandt of the United States after it was discovered that she weighed 100 grams more than the allowed amount during the morning weigh-in.Startled by the surprising turn of events, the defeated wrestler filed an appeal at the CAS last Wednesday, demanding a joint silver medal with Yusneylis Guzman Lopez, a Cuban wrestler who had lost to Vinesh but advanced to the final after the Indian wrestler was disqualified. Sports icons from all over the world supported the 29-year-old wrestler who was competing in her third Olympic Games, Vinesh, stating she doesn't have the strength to continue. Vinesh announced her retirement from the sport a day after her heartbreaking disqualification.
The Olympics gave France a rare sense of unanimity. Let's return to the political game now.
This once-brusque city has become an oasis of unity thanks to the Olympics. However, the political and social unrest that existed before the Games hasn't subsided.PARIS: On the banks of the Canal de Saint-Denis, it is one hour before dawn and the closing ceremony of the 2024 Paris Olympics has just concluded. But Parisian DJ Sara Zinger is spinning hit after hit for the youthful audience of hipsters, visitors, and volunteers who are wringing the last bit of positive energy out of these Games at a fan zone that lines a highway bridge close to the Stade de France. Whatever their bedtime, they are aware that France is going to awaken from its Olympic fantasy to a hard reality."Everyone was supporting the French athletes, Black or White, and the Olympics helped bring people together," said Mary Mathurin, 21, a student soaking up the last vestiges of this athletic carnival. "But as soon as we stop focusing on the sports, people are going to start arguing with each other again. "More than expected, the Olympics have brought smiles to Paris, a city known for its brusqueness, and have made the city an oasis. They have provided a sincere moment of pride and unanimity for this fragmented country. However, social unrest and political unrest plagued France before a ghostly metal horse rode down the Seine. Prior to the Games, the far-right garnered significant victories in elections throughout Europe, which led President Emmanuel Macron to convene an unexpected legislative session with the apparent intention of impeding its growth.

He's only twenty-three. He's still getting the hang of T20 cricket. He has a great deal of skill and will only grow better. Sometimes we ask too much of people too soon, and I'm confident Prithvi will succeed given his skill set," he continued.

He is the old Rishabh Pant, having put in a lot of effort to get back to his current position." As he looks to return home from Tripura, Ganguly also hoped that India's wicketkeeper-batter, Wriddhiman Saha, would be selected by the Bengal selectors.He is right to want to play for Bengal. "He is a Bengali boy," stated Ganguly. "He was playing professionally in Tripura, so he moved there for two years. Now that he has completed it, he wishes to be in Bengal. He will definitely be chosen by the selectors for Bengal. "At this time, I'm not participating in Bengal cricket. When I completed (my) BCCI, I did not run for president (stint). I simply took a little vacation. They will carry out the decision made by the officials and selectors," he continued.
USA complete the all-time historic upset by stunning Pakistan in the dramatic Super Over.
After a boundary off the last ball of the USA's run chase sent the match to a Super Over, the tournament's co-hosts triumphed in Dallas, pulling off one of the biggest upsets in history.In six of the eight men's T20 World Cups, Pakistan has advanced at least to the semifinals; they finished second in the most recent competition, which took place in Australia in 2022. However, they faced an American team that executed flawlessly that day to achieve one of the most significant outcomes in the history of the sport.In the Super Over, Pakistan looked to Mohammad Amir, but the USA amassed 18 runs with only one boundary from Aaron Jones' bat thanks to three wides and several overthrows. And as the USA accomplished the most incredible of victories on home soil, Netravalkar Saurabh maintained his composure with the ball.USA, who were set at 160 to win in regular time, came dangerously close to winning the match in the first few overs as their top order effectively thwarted a potent Pakistani attack. After opening batsman Steven Taylor was out for twelve (16) in the Powerplay's last over, co-hosts of the event Monank Patel and Andries Gous put Pakistan on the back foot with a stunning combination that placed them in triple figures and appeared to be in control of the run chase. With a stylish half-century to give his side hope and 68 during a pivotal stand with Gous, Monank was especially outstanding.Aaron Jones hit a superb century (36* from 26), but Pakistan appeared to be on the verge of triumph thanks to a brilliant exhibition of death bowling. Nevertheless, the USA scored 11 runs off the last three deliveries of the innings, with Nitish Kumar hitting the final ball for four to force a Super Over and electrify the Dallas crowd.

Will India perform worse in the T20 World Cup due to IPL fatigue? Boys and Rohit Sharma compete in consecutive competitions
The United States and the West Indies will host the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 on June 1st, and the Indian cricket team, captained by Rohit Sharma, has a lot riding on their shoulders.India advanced to the 2023 World Cup finals, but they were defeated by Australia and were unable to win the championship.According to current statistics, the Indian Premier League is somehow connected to India's lack of performance at the ICC T20 World Cup. Due to player weariness and having just entered the T20 World Cup tournament following an over two-and-a-half-month IPL schedule, India was able to pass the Super 8s stage both in 2009 and 2010.There were twelve days that separated the 2009 T20 World Cup from the IPL. In contrast, there was a five-day hiatus in 2010. India lost the tournament in 2021 in the group stage, and there was an eight-day break between the two events. The issue now is, can India be able to stem the tide with just six days remaining before the T20 World Cup and the IPL?The lengthy schedule of the lucrative Indian Premier League (IPL) tournament is often cited by critics as the reason for the players' exhaustion and the poor performance. The Indian Premier League (IPL) began this year on March 22 and ended on May 26, with the Kolkata Knight Riders, led by Shreyas Iyer, winning the trophy for the third time.Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal, Arshdeep Singh, Jasprit Bumrah, Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant, Sanju Samson, Shivam Dube, Ravindra Jadeja, Hardik Pandya, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, and Mohd.
