The current KKR coach and New Zealand's legendary cricketer Brendon McCullum has been appointed as England's new head coach for Test matches on Thursday.
40-year-old McCullum will start his new role for the England cricket team against New Zealand in June if he would be able to obtain the necessary work visa.
In a press statement, McCullum said that Ben Stokes is the perfect character to inspire the change around him, and he is looking forward to working closely with him to build a formidable England Test team.

McCullum had played 101 Tests for New Zealand and captained the Kiwis from 2012 to his international retirement in 2016.
McCullum has scored 6453 runs in 101 Tests with 302 being his highest individual score.

Cricket fans expected Virat Kohli to score his long-awaited 71st international hundred during the Test series vs Sri Lanka but the plans of the former India captain were cut short by the visiting Sri Lankan bowlers.
After getting dismissed cheaply for 23 in the 1st innings of the Bengaluru Pink-ball Test, Kohli had a nearly similar dismissal in the 2nd innings as well when the ball kept low on the turning track.
The long wait for that elusive hundred continues as Virat Kohli has now had 73 innings in international cricket without a hundred.
With 81 runs in 3 innings during the Test series vs Sri Lanka, something unthinkable also happen as Virat Kohli’s Test average dropped below 50 for the first time since August 2017 and now stands at 49.95.
Ominous signs for the Delhi cricketer as his long slump in form has started to affect his legacy in Test cricket where he once roared like a lion and is now merely a bystander.
With 3 months of break from International cricket coming up, Virat Kohli will be next seen in India colours in June. With the 15th edition of the Indian Premier League about to start, the former Royal Challengers Bangalore skipper will be hoping to turn the tide on his form.
Post the IPL, a lot of international cricket awaits Virat Kohli and his form and consistency will be key to Team India’s success.

IPL 2022: Punjab Kings will be squaring off against Delhi Capitals for the second time in IPL 2022 on Monday at Dr. DY Patil Stadium in Mumbai to keep their playoffs dream alive. 
Mayank Agarwal-led Punjab Kings have been occasionally good this season as they have won just 6 out of 12 matches in this season and are placed at 7th spot on the points table. If Punjab somehow win their last two matches from here, they will definitely climb up the points table and can even qualify for the playoffs.
On the other hand, the situation is not much different for Delhi Capitals as they have also won 6 out of 12 matches and are placed at 5th spot. Delhi's run-rate is better than that of Punjab and a win will strengthen their chances to qualify for the playoffs.

Punjab Kings dented Royal Challengers Bangalore's playoffs chances as they handed the Faf du Plessis-led side a massive 54-run defeat on Friday (May 13). Meanwhile, Punjab kept their playoffs hope alive as their net run rate is positive now and they have to win their remaining two matches to be in the race of playoffs given five teams could end the league stage on 16 points.
Bangalore, on the other hand, lost their chance to finish the league stage as the top two teams. Now they need to win their last league game against Gujarat Titans on May 19 and see how other teams fare in their matches.
Sunrisers Hyderabad and Kolkata Knight Riders will lock horns with each other in a crucial game on May 14. SRH vs KKR game would decide the fate of other teams as well given a Hyderabad win on Saturday would knock Kolkata out of playoffs' race.
Meanwhile, Gujarat Titans continue to top the IPL 2022 points table. The Hardik Pandya-led side is the first team in IPL 2022 to qualify for playoffs. Lucknow Super Giants, Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers are placed second, third, and fourth spot respectively on the points table.
Moreover, Jos Buttler continues to be the leading run-scorer in IPL 2022 with 625 runs in 12 games and currently holding the orange cap. Wanindu Hasaranga is currently holding the purple cap with 23 wickets in 13 matches. Hasaraga and Yuzvendra Chahal have the same number of wickets (23) but the former's economy rate is better than Chahal. Chahal has 23 wickets in 12 games.

Team India's training camp at Motera unlikely before IPL 2020

Covid-19 pandemic likely to derail BCCI's&nbsp;plans of having a national training camp

BCCI&nbsp;was keen on having a training camp for Team India at the recently inaugurated&nbsp;Motera stadium in Gujarat ahead of the IPL&nbsp;but that plan is&nbsp;unlikely to go ahead. A Gujarat Cricket Association official told PTI that there were media reports that the camp will start from August 18 and go on till September 4 but they haven't got any formal confirmation from the BCCI till now. A senior IPL franchise official had also questioned the logic of having a red ball camp before IPL when the players are playing a completely different format. Moreover, with the current Covid-19 situation, travelling from multiple cities before leaving for the&nbsp;UAE&nbsp;may expose&nbsp;the cricketers to risk.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Deepak Hooda and Krunal Pandya then came together to put LSG's ship back on track with a 65-run stand. But Lucknow's innings faltered after Krunal's dismissal and managed to score 154-8 in 20 overs.

Samson looked in good touch and steadied the Royals' ship with a 66-run stand with Jaiswal. Yashasvi top-scored with 41 while Devdutt Padikkal blazed away to an 18-ball 39 as Rajasthan Royals posted 178 for six in 20 overs.

"T20 is good for the game but not for ego", the former Australian all-rounder Andrew Symonds had once said after failing to defend 17 runs inaugural edition of the Indian Premier League against Shane Warne.
The demise of Symonds shocked the cricketing world which was still mourning the death of legendary Shane Warne.
Here are some of Symonds' best moments while playing the game he loved the most.
2003 World Cup vs Pakistan
Andrew Symonds filled in the boots of Michael Bevan and took Australia out of shambles in their 2003 World Cup opener against Pakistan. From 146-5 in 30th over, Australia went to score 310-8, all because of Symonds' 143 not out off 125 balls.
Sydney Test: 2008 vs India
Though the match was first marred by Umpiring controversy, Symonds displayed his tremendous temperament and scored 162 not out against India in the Sydney Test. This time, Symonds took Australia out from 134-6 in the first innings and scalped two crucial wickets in the second innings. But his prolific innings was marred by the monkey gate scandal as Symonds alleged Harbhajan Singh for using a racial slur against him.
117 no vs RR in 2008 ipl
Two months after the monkey gate scandal, Andrew Symonds emerged as the most expensive foreign buy in the inaugural edition of IPL. While representing now-defunct Deccan Charges, Symonds steamrolled the Warne's Rajasthan Royals' bowlers and slammed 116 off 53 balls. But he failed to take his team home as he was not able to defend 17 runs in the last over against Warne who tonked his Australian counterpart for a Four and two sixes.

The defending champions Chennai super kings failed to make the playoffs of the 2022 season of IPL after losing their game to Mumbai Indians.
This is only the second time in IPL history that Chennai failed to qualify.
Here are the three reasons why Chennai failed to qualify for the playoffs
The leadership conundrum
MS Dhoni dropped a bombshell just one day ahead of IPL 2022 kick-off that he has handed over the CSK captaincy to Ravindra Jadeja. The team under Jadeja's leadership & failed to perform up to their mark. A few matches later, Jadeja handed back the captaincy duties to Dhoni.
Lack of wicket-takers in the powerplay
Chennai's costliest buy Deepak Chahar pulled his hamstring ahead of IPL 2022. To start with, he was ruled out for the first half of the tournament. During the rehab, he injured his back which ruled him out of the tournament. In absence of Chahar, Chennai failed to find a replacement for Chahar who could pick wickets in the powerplay. Mukesh Choudhary and Simarjeet Singh rose to the occasion in the latter half of the tournament but by that time it was too late for the four-time champions.
Ruturaj Gaikwad's poor form
Among the many mantras of Chennai's success in IPL, runs by the openers have been the most important one. However, Gaikwad's patchy form came as a major setback. Gaikwad who was the highest run-getter for CSK last season, got his mojo back in the second-half tournament which was again too late for the team.
