T20 World Cup: Pakistan ride on Sahibzada Farhan’s ton to beat Namibia, qualify for Super 8s | Cricket News

4 min readMumbaiFeb 18, 2026 07:07 PM IST Sahibzada Farhan’s T20I journey has been one of patience, persistence and fluctuating fortunes. Having made his debut for Pakistan back in 2018, the right-hander spent years on the fringes, drifting in and out of the side without quite cementing his place. It is only over the past two years that he has enjoyed a relatively settled run in the shortest format, backed consistently by team management despite an uneven run of performances. There were flashes of promise, but no defining knock – one that would truly stamp his authority on the international stage. Until Wednesday. With Pakistan’s T20 World Cup Super 8 qualification on the line, the batter from Charsadda delivered when it mattered most, producing a magnificent, unbeaten 100 off 58 balls against Namibia in Colombo – an innings of clarity, control and calculated aggression – to power Pakistan into the next round and finally give his T20I career its signature moment. The innings, however, was anything but a serene cruise. It began with nervous energy …

2 min readFeb 4, 2026 08:15 PM IST A superb century by Aaron George, complemented by explosive half-centuries from Vaibhav Suryavanshi and Ayush Mhatre, helped India walk into the finals of the U19 World Cup for a record 10th time after a 7-wicket victory over Afghanistan in the semifinal in Harare on Wednesday. Chasing a challenging target of 311, India secured their place in a record sixth consecutive Youth World Cup final, where they will face England. Faced with a steep total, India launched a blistering start thanks to star prodigy Vaibhav Suryavanshi. The 15-year-old left-hander smashed a 33-ball 68, dominating the chase from the outset. By the time he was dismissed in the 10th over, India had already raced to 90. Captain Ayush Mhatre then joined Aaron George, and the pair maintained the momentum with a commanding 114-run partnership for the second wicket. Earlier, Afghanistan posted a formidable 310 for four, built on magnificent centuries from Faisal Shinozada and Uzairullah Niazai. Shinozada top-scored with a 93-ball 110, while Niazai remained unbeaten on 101 from …

Virat Kohli’s ton in vain as New Zealand win first ODI bilateral series in India | Cricket News

Published by Webster

Virat Kohli’s 85th international ton went in vain as India fell to New Zealand in the 3rd ODI by 41 runs at Indore on Sunday. With this victory, the Kiwis won their first ODI bilateral series ever and broke India’s undefeated streak in 50-over bilateral wins which stretched back to March 2019. This was the latest unwanted record in the Gautam Gambhir era after India had lost 3-0 to the same opposition in Tests in 2024 and then conceded another Test series to South Africa last year, their first longest format series loss at home to the Proteas since 2000. On Sunday, India looked to be in the hunt as long as Kohli and Harshit Rana were in the middle. But the ace batter fell for 124 while the pacer was snapped up for 52, moments after scoring his maiden ODI half century. Nitish Kumar Reddy had also chipped in with a half century but the Indian top order except Kohli flattered to deceive. Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill scored 11 and 23 respectively while …

Daryl Mitchell hits second straight ODI ton, fourth consecutive 50+ score vs India during Indore game

Published by Webster

New Zealand middle-order batter Daryl Mitchell loves to bat against India in the ODIs. He becomes even more lethal in the Indian conditions. On Sunday, Mitchell slammed his ninth One-Day International century, his fourth against India during the third ODI at the Holkar Cricket Stadium in Indore. Continuing his purple patch with the bat, this was Mitchell’s fourth consecutive fifty-plus total and second century in succession against the Men In Blue. Mitchell scored an unbeaten 131 during the second ODI in Rajkot, helping the Kiwis chase down 285 and level the three-match ODI series one-all against India. With the series hung in balance, the Indore game is the series decider, where India have never lost an ODI game. India have also not lost an ODI series against the Kiwis at home. Invited to bat first, New Zealand got off to a poor start, having lost both openers in just the first seven deliveries. Mitchell then consolidated New Zealand’s innings and stitched a 53-run partnership with Will Young for the third wicket before the latter was …

Daryl Mitchell’s century guided New Zealand to a series-levelling win against India on Wednesday at Rajkot. Mitchell, who had scored 84 in the first ODI, played another important knock of 131 as the Kiwis defeated the Men in Blue by 7 wickets. With this win, the series is now tied at 1-1 with the last match on Sunday at Indore set to be for all the marbles. Coming in at No.4, Mitchell smashed 2 sixers and 11 boundaries, cancelling out the gritty 112 runs by India’s KL Rahul in the first innings. He was aptly supported by Will Young who scored 87 before getting dismissed by Kuldeep Yadav. After that, Glenn Phillips stayed with Mitchell as the two veteran Black Caps members guided the team home. Earlier, KL Rahul had held a faltering innings together on a sluggish surface with a gutsy hundred, guiding India to 284/7. Rahul produced a gritty unbeaten 112 off 92 balls which included 11 fours and two sixes, forging vital partnerships in the second half and snatching control from the …

‘Pushing him to no 6, below Axar/Jadeja, is going to be a cardinal sin’: Dodda Ganesh on ‘Rolls-Royce’ KL Rahul after ton vs New Zealand | Cricket News

Published by Webster

Former India and Karnataka cricketer Dodda Ganesh lauded KL Rahul for his century in the second ODI vs New Zealand on Wednesday, adding that this innings was an example why he advocated for playing the Delhi Capitals batter in the No.5 position. He added that pushing Rahul at 6, below Axar Patel/Ravindra Jadeja was a cardinal sin. “This is why I was always harping about having KL Rahul at no 5, in the ODIs. KL knows to pace the inns well, and has all the shots in his armoury to go all-out in the death. Pushing him to no 6, below Axar/Jadeja, is going to be a cardinal sin. KL is Rolls-Royce. Use him,” he said on X. Even former India allrounder Irfan Pathan lauded Rahul. “100 of the highest quality from Kl Rahul,” he posted. When Rahul had reached his half century, Pathan had also praised his innings. “Solid half-century from KL Rahul. Playing low risk cricket while keeping the strike rate nearly 100 says a lot about his class and game awareness,” Pathan …

India’s KL Rahul on Wednesday steadied the Men in Blue’s innings after they were in a bit of bother after losing stalwarts like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill, scoring a patient century, his 8th ODI ton of his career. Rahul, who came in at No.5, took 87 deliveries to get to his 100 in an innings peppered with 9 fours and 1 six. He was also the first Indian batter to get to a century at Rajkot’s Niranjan Shah Stadium. In the 1st ODI at Vadodara, in a 301-run chase that seemed to fritter with a flurry of wickets against New Zealand on Sunday, Rahul took his time to settle in but eventually quelled the nerves by sealing a four-wicket win for India. He got them across the line with some flair too, smashing the winning six for the sixth time in his career. Only the legendary MS Dhoni has done it on more counts (9) for India in one-dayers. Earlier, New Zealand skipper Michael Bracewell opted to bowl in the second One-day …
