After Cameron Bancroft, who was 1 of the 3 Australians majorly&nbsp;involved in the 2018 Sandpaper Gate saga, recently made a shocking revelation that bowlers were also aware about altering the condition of the ball in the infamous Test vs South Africa, Cricket Australia is now open to reinvestigate the matter.
After Bancroft's comments, the Aussie board made an appeal to the cricketing fraternity, asking people to contact the board if they have any new evidence related to the ball-tampering scandal.
CA though added that the investigation conducted at the time was detailed and comprehensive and no one has presented new information to them that casts doubt on the investigation&rsquo;s findings since then.

The Delhi and Districts Cricket Association&nbsp;has offered the premises of the Arun Jaitley Stadium to be used as a Covid-19 vaccination centre, the state cricket board president Rohan Jaitley confirmed.
The stadium was being used during IPL&nbsp;2021 until&nbsp;May 2, before the cash rich league was indefinitely suspended.&nbsp;Rohan Jaitley&nbsp;wrote to the Delhi Government that in their facility 10,000 people can be vaccinated per day. They can use it till cricketing activity resumes. He got a reply that the chief secretary will look into the matter.
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Saturday said that the Covid-19 impact has lessened in the city, with the case positivity rate in the national capital dropping to 11 per cent.

Over 3 years after the infamous ball-tampering scandal that rocked the world of cricket, Aussie cricketer&nbsp;Cameron Bancroft has made a startling revelation. In an interview to the Guardian, Bancroft who is currently playing County Cricket in England said that it was "self-explanatory" that bowlers in the Test team had to be aware the ball was being tampered with. Bancroft along with then captain Steve Smith &amp; David Warner were found guilty of tampering with the ball and were banned from the sport for a long duration by Cricket Australia. The board though was in damage control and prevented the fire from spreading as it concluded that only Bancroft, Warner &amp; Smith knew about the tampering. The new admission from Bancroft is now likely to open a can of worms.&nbsp;

Shafali Verma and seasoned pacer Shikha Pandey&nbsp;were picked for all 3 formats as the Neetu&nbsp;David led selection panel picked the squad for India's&nbsp;tour of England where they play 1 Test, 3 ODIs&nbsp;&amp; 3 T20s.&nbsp;Mithali&nbsp;Raj will lead the ODI&nbsp;&amp; Test squad as Harmanpreet&nbsp;Kaur is the captain of the T20 team. Meanwhile, WV Raman&nbsp;the outgoing head coach of the Women's team in a scathing letter to BCCI&nbsp;president Sourav&nbsp;Ganguly&nbsp;and National Cricket Academy Chief Rahul&nbsp;Dravid&nbsp;called out the attitude with which women's cricket is run in the country. According to PTI, in the strongly-worded mail, Raman&nbsp;not only presented a roadmap&nbsp;for the future of women's cricket but also slammed the Prima donna culture in the system.&nbsp;

WV Raman was replaced as the coach of the Indian Women's Cricket team as former cricketer Romesh Power took charge on Thursday. But the change in a coach

WV Raman&nbsp;was replaced as the coach of the Indian Women's&nbsp;Cricket team as former cricketer Romesh&nbsp;Power took charge on Thursday. But the change in a coach who led the team to the World T20 final last year has now opened a can of worms. The two parties in question are&nbsp;the Madan Lal-headed Cricket Advisory Committee and Neetu David-led selection panel. Powar&nbsp;interestingly was removed as the coach of the women's team in 2018 and this will be his 2nd stint as the top boss.&nbsp;According to PTI, a total of 8 interviews were conducted and the selection committee had made up their minds to pick Powar even before the process started. Reports suggest that WV Raman had a fallout with the selection committee during the recently concluded home series vs South Africa which saw many players being dropped from the squad. Many big stars like Shafali Verma and pacer Shikha Pandey were dropped from various formats which baffled everyone.

For 5th straight year, Team India ended the cricket calendar with the number 1 Test ranking as ICC&nbsp;released the rankings on Thursday.

With cricket bearing the brunt of Covid-19 since March 2020, the England and Wales Cricket Board has recorded losses worth 16.1 million pounds, translating to nearly ₹143 crores&nbsp;during that period.
Chief financial officer at the ECB, Scott Smith, said that this has been a challenging year, but by being able to stage international cricket and by taking decisive action early in the pandemic, they have been able to support the network and avoid a far worse financial scenario.
He added that the impact was largely due to the postponement of ECB&rsquo;s new competition, The Hundred, until 2021 and the additional costs of creating bio-secure environments to host international cricket in a pandemic environment.

Kuldeep&nbsp;Yadav&nbsp;who a couple&nbsp;of years back was India's go to spinner in limited overs, hardly finds a place in the playing XI now. Opening up about the rough patch in his career, the Chinaman&nbsp;said that he misses MS Dhoni's guidance from behind the stumps.
Kuldeep told The Indian Express that MS used to guide us and kept screaming. So, the spinners miss his experience.&nbsp;He feels that every bowler needs a partner who can respond from the other end.
Kuldeep&nbsp;added that he has played just a handful of games ever since Dhoni left because of which he was low on confidence. The 26-year-old admitted that he felt a huge pressure when he played the Test against England in Chennai this February.
