Ollie Pope’s Unbeaten Century Leads England To A Quick Start

The start was good but the end was just amazing! On the first day of England’s second Test against the West Indies, Ollie Pope’s undefeated century helped them reach 259 for 4. Ollie Pope tried his luck at many crucial times to build on Ben Duckett’s scorching start. Pope blasted the boundary on his way to 71 from 59 balls in the morning session. After Zak Crawley went to Alzarri Joseph’s third ball of the match, Alick Athanaze and Ollie Pope scored a huge partnership. That pair shared a 105-run stand for the second wicket.  Ollie Pope went on to score 115* not out at the break. And Ben Stokes was 15 at that stage. West Indies missed too many opportunities on the field and with the ball. Firstly, the bowlers did not catch Ollie Pope on 46 in the final over. Athanaze failed to hold on to the long shot. They offered him another chance on 54 when he sliced Shamar Joseph to second slip, Jason Holder being the offender this time. Ollie Pope’s Amazing Century In that thrilling clash, Harry B

Jaiswal and Gill Lead India to Crushing T20 Victory Over Zimbabwe

  Zimbabwe’s most assured batting performance was insufficient to compete with India’s new IPL stars, Jaiswal and Gill.  The two stars breezed through a 153-run target in only 15.2 overs. Both put on a stunning display of intent-laden batting unlike anything seen in the series so far.  Whereas Zimbabwe hit only 10 fours in their 20 overs, Jaiswal and Gill smacked as many in their first four overs. This ensured a ten-wicket thrashing that gave India an unbeatable 3-1 lead with one more game to play on Sunday. Before this game, Zimbabwe had lost at least two wickets in the powerplay in all three T20Is in the series. Wessly Madhevere and Tadiwanashe Marumani, on the other hand, rode their luck and scored 63 in 8.4 overs, giving them a solid foundation. Jaiswal and Gill’s Efforts to Restrict ZIM Marumani was dropped by Shivam Dube at mid-on in the third over while on three runs. He also profited from an overthrow of the boundary in the same over.  And Marumani appeared to shift gears follo
