Vaibhav Sooryavanshi gets out to bouncer outside off-stump again | Cricket News

Published by Webster

3 min readJun 11, 2026 11:24 AM IST Despite getting a typical, strong start young batting sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi couldn’t get to his maiden half-century for India A. In India A’s second league match against Afghanistan A at Dambulla on Thursday, Sooryavanshi stared with a flurry of boundaries before falling for 44. The ball that got the 15-year-old was the bouncer outside the off-stump. During the later stages of the IPL, in the Eliminator, Sunrisers Hyderabad pacers had tried that particular line and were rewarded after Sooryavanshi had taken the game away from them. Trying to pull the delivery from outside off, he ended up top-edging it to the fielder at third-man. “I tried to play the fielder instead of the ball,” the opener would self reflect soon. Against Afghanistan, Abdollah Ahmadzai, despite being taken for runs, at least seemed to be working with a plan in mind against Sooryavanshi. While the young batsman hasn’t shown any one particular area of struggle, the plan from Ahmadzai was simple. Come around the wicket and cramp him …

Jeremiah Louis struck on helmet by Jayden Seales bouncer as dangerous pitch forces West Indies domestic match abandonment in Antigua

3 min readApr 22, 2026 06:34 PM IST A domestic red ball cricket match between Trinidad & Tobago and Leeward Islands in the West Indies Championship was abandoned due to a dangerous pitch at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in Antigua after Jeremiah Louis was hit on the helmet while batting. The umpires decided to abandon the match early on Tuesday (Day 3 of the match) after the Leeward Islands seamer Louis was struck on the helmet by fast bowler Jayden Seales. Louis was subsequently taken to a hospital with a suspected concussion after a short-pitched delivery from Trinidad and Tobago and West Indies seamer Jayden Seales rose sharply and struck him on the side of the head during the first session of day three. Louis collapsed to the ground before removing his helmet and striking the turf in frustration. He then kicked his helmet toward a short-leg fielder and walked off toward the pavilion. Twenty-seven wickets had fallen across the three days, one of only 12 fixtures in a reduced domestic First-Class season. A …

‘Clocked’ by a nightclub bouncer and having to apologise for it – Harry Brook’s embarrassment is complete | Cricket News

Published by Webster

Being punched by a nightclub bouncer isn’t a pleasant feeling, especially for a batsman more used to dealing with the cricketing variety. Apart from the physical pain and momentary embarrassment, Harry Brook had the additional mortification of apologising for his conduct to all and sundry. England’s white-ball skipper and Test vice-captain, who often had England fans and experts holding their heads due to how he got out during the recent Ashes series, had been in the news for his off-field activities as well. Brook was involved in the said altercation on the night before an ODI in Wellington on November 1 – in which he led England to defeat, with the skipper contributing six runs. It was his first series abroad as captain. He was fined 30,000 pounds and given a final warning by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB), though as the incident occurred just a few weeks before the Ashes, it only came to light more than two months later when the team had already been comprehensively outclassed by the Australians. England’s …

Harry Brook tendered an apology for “bringing embarrassment” to himself and the England cricket team for a brawl with a nightclub bouncer in New Zealand the night before the third One-Day International between England and the Black Caps. England had toured New Zealand just before they landed in Australia for the disastrous Ashes trip. Reports in the British media noted that Brook, who is England’s white ball captain, was struck by the club’s bouncer after the cricketer was refused entry to the club. The incident was first reported by British newspaper The Daily Telegraph right when England were being roundly criticised for their tour of Australia, where they lost 1-4 in the five-Test series. According to the report, Brook was slapped with a fine of 30,000 pounds ($40,300) at the time and given a final warning for his future conduct. Brook was not stripped of the white-ball captaincy. He also continued to be the vice captain of the England team in the recently-concluded Ashes tour. Brook’s batting has been criticised by many England legends like …

Asin’s husband Rahul Sharma reveals how Micromax went from Rs 12,000 crore to bust in five years: ‘Bouncer after bouncer, clean-bowled by full-toss’ | Bollywood News

Published by Webster

Former actor Asin’s husband, Rahul Sharma, co-founded one of the biggest players in the mobile phone arena, Micromax. But after a few years during which it dominated the Indian market and took on international brands, it was forced to perform a major pivot. Chinese brands emerged, and the supply chain turned towards them. In several interviews, Rahul has spoken about Micromax’s downfall, which was highly publicised because of how huge the company had become. It was during this period of growth that he married Asin, who backed away from the film industry immediately afterwards. Appearing on Raj Shamani’s podcast this year, Rahul said that at its peak, Micromax was among the 10 biggest mobile phone companies in the world. It had successfully fended off competition from the likes of Nokia and Samsung in India, and was delivering a turnover of between Rs 12,000 crore and Rs 15,000 crore. But things began turning around shortly afterwards. “Bouncer pe bouncer pad raha tha, uss time full-toss pe bhi bowled ho rahe they,” he said. Also read – …

When Sachin Tendulkar’s Bouncer Left Bantoo Singh With A Bloody Nose

When Sachin Tendulkar’s Bouncer Left Bantoo Singh With A Bloody Nose

Published by Webster

Sachin Tendulkar has scarred many bowlers for life with his imperious batting but Bantoo Singh saw the ‘spirit of Curtly Ambrose’ in ‘Little Master’ when he was hit by his bouncer that left him with a bloody nose with multiple fractures during an ill-tempered Ranji match between Delhi and Mumbai in 1991. Bantoo, one of the pillars of Delhi’s batting between mid 80s and mid 90s, can now afford to laugh when he jogs his memory 32 summers back to April 20, 1991. “Mere naak ka naqshaa hi badaal gaya Sachin ke uss bouncer ke baad. Mere paas ab naya naak hai (The design of my nose changed after that Sachin bouncer. I have a new nose now),” Bantoo said during an interaction with PTI on the eve of legend’s 50th birthday. But there was backdrop to Sachin’s bouncer that had Bantoo literally ending up on all fours. The Mumbai versus Delhi clashes in 1980s and 1990s used to be as much about ego as it was about playing the game of one …
