Adelaide Test: Australia dominate Pakistan on day 1

Despite rain delaying the start of play in Adelaide, Australia still managed to tame Pakistani bowlers as the hosts ended day 1 of the 2nd Test at 302/1. Tim Paine's decision to bat first proved right as David Warner&nbsp;smashed his 2nd consecutive score of over 150. Marnus Labuschagne&nbsp;too joined the party and scored his 2nd straight hundred.&nbsp;Moreover, Labuschagne&nbsp;with 793 Test runs so far this year is now the&nbsp;leading run-scorer in the longest format in 2019. The pair put together an unbeaten 294 run stand which is now the&nbsp;highest&nbsp; 2nd wicket partnership for Australia vs Pakistan in Tests. As things stand, The Kangaroos look on course to take their&nbsp;perfect Day-night record to 6 games.

India Vs England 4th Test: Axar Patel picked 4 wickets as England were 205 all out in 1st innings after opting to bat first.

Yet another Test and once again England were caught in a web of spin in Ahmedabad. Joe Root's decision to bat first looked to be the right call before their top order failed and the visitors were reduced to 30/3.
Ben Stokes tried to steady the ship with a half-century but his innings was too cut short on 55. Axar picked 4 wickets and Ashwin bagged 3 as England were bowled out for 205 in the 1st innings.
India had a shaky response as Shubman Gill was dismissed for a duck. Rohit Sharma and Cheteshwar Pujara looked comfortable though as the hosts ended opening day at 24/1, trailing England by 181 runs.

After getting bowled out twice in less than 80 overs&nbsp;in the 3rd Test, former English cricketers like Michael Vaughan and Kevin Pietersen complained about the standards of the strip at Motera. Just a week later the English team despite playing 8 batsmen were punched out for 205 on the first day itself of the 4th Test. With the wicket offering assistance to the spinners much later in the day, fast bowler Mohammed&nbsp;Siraj&nbsp;too took 2 wickets as most English batsmen threw away their wickets. Axar Patel was once again the destroyer in chief with 4 wickets and Ashwin&nbsp;picked up 3 despite coming a bit late to the party. With the performance of England in the first innings, there was an eerie silence on the&nbsp;social media accounts of those who were complaining earlier.&nbsp;

After 3 more positive Covid-19 results, the decision to halt the current edition of PSL was made following a virtual meeting on Thursday.

The ongoing 2021 edition of the Pakistan Super League&nbsp;has been postponed indefinitely as&nbsp;3 more players from two different teams tested positive for Covid-19.&nbsp;Though the official release didn't name the individuals returning positive tests, it stated that neither of them were&nbsp;part of the double-header games on Wednesday. Reportedly,&nbsp;England batsman Tom Banton is one of three to test positive.&nbsp;Karachi Kings too confirmed that their fielding coach Kamran Khan is also one of those 3. The three will now self-isolate for a period of 10 days. A PSL&nbsp;game was postponed after Islamabad United's Fawad Ahmed tested positive on March 1 and the decision to halt the current edition was made following&nbsp;a&nbsp;virtual meeting on Thursday.

Akila&nbsp;Dananjaya&nbsp;had a rollercoaster of an evening in the 1st T20 vs West Indies in Antigua. The Sri&nbsp;Lankan spinner while helping his side defend a below-par 131/9&nbsp;took a hattrick&nbsp;which included some big scalps like Evin&nbsp;Lewis, Chris Gayle and Nicholas Pooran. The flurry of wickets dented West Indies' chase but what came next is something no one could predict. Captain Kieron&nbsp;Pollard came out and smashed the hattrick&nbsp;hero for 6 sixes in an over. Pollard is now the 2nd cricketer to smash 6 sixes in T20 internationals as West Indies reached the 132 run target with little less than 7 overs&nbsp;to go.

Ahead of the 4th Test in Ahmedabad&nbsp;vs England, Indian skipper Virat&nbsp;Kohli has blasted those who questioned the quality of the pitch in the 3rd Test which finished in less than 2 days time.

After vice-captain Ajinkya&nbsp;Rahane&nbsp;confirmed that the pitch in the 4th Test in Ahmedabad&nbsp;will a turning track, focus once again goes back to the turf. As the previous match at Motera lasted for less than 2 days, how long will the final Test last? India is expected to play 3 spinners again for the final game of the series which will also confirm their World Test Championship final berth. For England who is out of contention, the pressure will be to deliver a punch against the home team who look close to invincible on the turning tracks. A win for England will send Australia to the final in Lords but Virat&nbsp;Kohli's men will be ready for England's counter attack. With most Indian batsmen apart from Rohit&nbsp;Sharma&nbsp;unable to find a&nbsp;rhythm&nbsp;in this series, the final Test will be a good opportunity to rake in big scores.&nbsp;

After producing a spinning track for the 3rd Test against England which lasted a little over 1 &amp; half days, the Gujarat Cricket Association is likely to produce another spin-friendly track for the final encounter of the Test series. According to a report in the Times of India, the pitch for the 4th Test at the Narendra&nbsp;Modi&nbsp;Stadium will turn from day 1 despite showing a healthy covering of the grass earlier. Former International cricketers have slammed the pitch and the conditions in Motera&nbsp;but a few led by Indian ace spinner Ravichandran&nbsp;Ashwin&nbsp;have defended the quality of the strip. The 3rd Test which ended on Day 2 was the shortest completed game since World War 2.&nbsp;

'As soon as it starts spinning, everyone in the world seems to start crying about it.'

As many cricket experts criticised the Ahmedabad&nbsp;pitch after the 3rd Test between India and England was over within&nbsp;2 days, Nathan Lyon has hit out at the critics. The Australian spinner said that while playing on seaming wickets around the world, teams get bowled out for 47 and 60 but nobody ever says a thing.&nbsp;But as soon as it starts spinning, everyone in the world seems to start crying about it. Lyon added that it was entertaining and was thinking about bringing that curator to the Sydney Cricket Ground.&nbsp;
