Border-Gavaskar Trophy | ‘Rohit (Sharma) I’m sure would expect these fast bowlers to react like that’: Ricky Ponting on Siraj-Head face-off | Cricket News

Former Australian captain Ricky Ponting, who himself had been embroiled in many cheated exchanges during his career, has termed the Travis Head and Mohammad Siraj exchanging words during second Pink Ball Test at Adelaide as ‘accidental’. While Indian pacer Mohammad Siraj was fined 20 percent of his match fees apart from one demerit point added to his disciplinary code after the heated exchange post the dismissal of Head during Australia’s first innings, the Australian batsman saw one demerit point added to his disciplinary code by the match referee. “Looking back at it now, I think it was accidental the way that whole thing played out. I don’t think there was any malice meant at the start. Then the way it started and almost like the misinterpretation of what had actually gone on, I think led to how it ended,” Ponting told The ICC Review. The incident had happened during the 82nd over of Australia’s first innings with Siraj castling Head, who was batting on 140, with a yorker. The Hyderabad bowler gave Head a send-off …

‘I just wanted to get away from the guard’: Lachie Burtt- The beer snake man explains on what he was doing at sight screen which caused disruption of play in Adelaide | Cricket News

Lachie Burtt, often now referred to as the beer snake man, disturbed the game in Adelaide Oval on Friday during the second test of the Border Gavaskar Trophy by running with a beer snake (a pile of beer cups stacked together, making a snake-like figure) near the sight screen throws light on the incident. “In my head at that time, I just wanted to get away from the guard, so I saw the space and hopped over the tiny white rope,” he told 9News. “I didn’t really have time to stop and think what I was doing right now and what the effects were going to be because of it,” said Lachie Burtt. “I did feel a bit silly, it wasn’t the right thing … sorry Marnus.” “It’s probably not the right thing to do, but no one got hurt,” Burtt said. Burtt felt that the small hiccup didn’t matter much as the game went on after the incident without being impacted “I didn’t jump the fence or anything. It was one ball, and Marnus …

IND vs AUS: Virat Kohli’s outside off-stump perils continue as Scott Boland strikes in Adelaide | Cricket News

IND vs AUS: Virat Kohli’s outside off-stump perils continue as Scott Boland strikes in Adelaide | Cricket News

India vs Australia: Australia seamer Scott Boland had Virat Kohli tied down in the second Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Adelaide on Saturday, dismissing him in a fashion the former India captain has seen one too many times. The fourth-stump delivery snared Kohi once again, pitching at a good length and nipping away slightly. Kohli, looking to defend the ball, found himself poking hard at the pink ball as it safely cushioned into Carey’s gloves. Kohli’s departure for 11 off 21 deliveries left India three down with a little under 10 overs to go to stumps on Day 2. This has been a constant mode of dismissal for Kohli over the years, with the slip-cordon behind him always ready for a ball flying towards them. Even though it hasn’t happened a lot this year, the weakness persists. In the first Test against Bangladesh in September, Kohli attempted to drive a ball well outside the off-stump, but it tickled the edge to find wicket-keeper Litton Das. When New Zealand toured India soon after, it was …

Border-Gavaskar Trophy: What happened the last time India played Australia in a Pink-Ball Test match | Cricket News

India vs Australia: With not a lot of exposure to Pink-Ball cricket in recent years, India will be going into only their fifth Day-Night Test match when they face Australia in the second Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, starting Friday in Adelaide. India will be playing a Day-Night Test away from home for the second time, with the previous occurrence also being at the same venue when they toured Australia in 2020-21. India will be going into the Adelaide Oval with hopes to forget their last Test outing at the venue and rewrite the past. India had a good start to the match then, scoring 244 in the first innings with the help of Virat Kohli’s gritty knock of 74 off 180 balls, supported by Cheteshwar Pujara’s 43 (160) and Ajinkya Rahane’s 42 (92). Australia pacer Mitchell Starc proved to be trouble to the Indian batting unit, as he bagged four wickets to his name while fellow seamer Pat Cummins followed him with his three.

Pat Cummins on experts reacting to Josh Hazlewood’s batter comments: ‘There’s enough commentators that will support…some that will, of course, create some headlines’ | Cricket News

With the Second Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy at the Adelaide Oval drawing close, Australian Captain Pat Cummins made clear to the media that there is no tension within the players and the dressing is not divided, refuting the statements that were made by experts. Cummins told the press that the commentators had gotten it “100 percent wrong” after wrongly interpreting Hazlewood’s comments during the First Test in Perth, which made it seem like he shifted the responsibility just to the batsmen. “The team’s great. Some of the commentators got that 100 per cent wrong,” Cummins said. “We’ve prepared like we always do and get around each other. It’s a great feeling around the team. We don’t make too much of it.” “When things don’t go right, there’s enough commentators that will support you but also some that will, of course, create some headlines. We try not to take too much notice of it. We just go about our things.” When asked about if Australian batters would chase down what has India put on in …
