Published by Webster

File photo of Tim Southee© AFP England are reportedly considering former New Zealand pacer Tim Southee as their fast-bowling consultant ahead of a home summer season that includes a marquee five-Test series against India. The 36-year-old is one of the contenders to replace veteran pacer James Anderson, who took up the role after retiring from Test cricket last year but is unavailable this summer due to playing commitments with county side Lancashire. Southee had called time on his red-ball career in December, finishing with 391 Test wickets, second only to Sir Richard Hadlee on 431. According to the BBC, he shares a strong rapport with England head coach Brendon McCullum. Besides McCullum, former New Zealand spinner Jeetan Patel is also part of England’s coaching staff, currently serving as the spin bowling coach.

After Mohammed Shami, New Zealand’s Tim Southee Calls To Quash Saliva Ban On Ball

After Mohammed Shami, New Zealand’s Tim Southee Calls To Quash Saliva Ban On Ball

Published by Webster

Former New Zealand pacer Tim Southee has supported India pacer Mohammed Shami’s call to revoke the saliva ban on the ball in international cricket to assist bowlers in getting reverse swing from the ball. The International Cricket Council (ICC) had, in May 2020, during the Covid-19 pandemic as a temporary measure, barred players from using saliva to polish the ball. In September 2022, it was permanently banned by the ICC. After India’s four-wicket win over Australia in the Champions Trophy semifinal, Shami said, “We are trying (to get reverse swing), but the usage of saliva on the ball is not allowed. We keep appealing that we should be allowed to use saliva so that we can bring reverse swing back into the game and it becomes interesting.” Supporting Shami’s call, Southee urged the ICC to revoke the ban on using saliva to shine the ball and give some advantage to bowlers. “That was a rule brought around Covid with the virus going around the world, but I think as a bowler, you want …

Former New Zealand cricketer Tim Southee predicted compatriot Kane Williamson and Australian left-hander Travis Head to be the top run-getter in the upcoming ICC Champions Trophy, starting from February 19. Southee was talking in a video posted by the ICC. In the video by ICC, Southee said about Williamson, “I think wickets would be pretty good in Pakistan.

We have seen his experience in different conditions, his success in different conditions and he is a guy that’s got a phenomenal one-day record.” In 165 ODIs since his debut in 2010, Williamson has scored 6,810 runs at an average of 48.64, with 13 centuries and 45 fifties.

Washington Sundar Takes 7-Fer On Test Return After 45 Months In India vs New Zealand 2nd Test Day 1 In Pune

Washington Sundar Takes 7-Fer On Test Return After 45 Months In India vs New Zealand 2nd Test Day 1 In Pune

Published by Webster

All-rounder Washington Sundar justified his selection with a career-best 7/59 to help India bowl out New Zealand for 259, but the hosts lost skipper Rohit Sharma early in their first innings when stumps were drawn on day of the second Test, here on Thursday. India crawled to 16 for one in 11 overs with Yashasvi Jaiswal (6 not out) and Shubman Gill (10 not out) at the crease, trailing by another 243 runs in the first innings. Tim Southee cleaned up Rohit for a nine-ball duck, forcing the hosts to be extra cautious with the debacle of first innings in the Bengaluru Test still fresh in the mind. Rohit, who was cleaned up for the third time in the series and for the second time by Southee, was squared up as he looked to defend in the line of the delivery but the ball moved away to beat his outside edge and crash into the off-stump. Southee thus became the first among fast bowlers to take a wicket in this Test after a …
