Posted on by [email protected]

Sophie Devine, a mainstay of New Zealand will be leaving the ODI format after this year’s World Cup. She will therefore choose to sign a casual playing contract for the 2025–2026 season, New Zealand Cricket said on Tuesday, June 17.

In both ODIs and T20Is, the 35-year-old has enjoyed a stellar career for New Zealand. Over the course of her 152 appearances for the national team the second most after Suzie Bates. She has risen from her initial position as a No. 11 in 50-over cricket to become one of the most crucial hitters in the team. She has hit 16 fifties and eight hundred, second only to Bates. In addition to his fourth-highest 3990 runs. Devine has taken 107 wickets. Which is second only to Lea Tahuhu.

In 2020, the all-round player was named New Zealand’s permanent captain last year. They won the T20 World Cup under her direction. In the last two tournaments. They have not advanced past the group stages in the ODI format.

Devine stated, “It feels like the right time for me to start stepping away,” in reference to her choice. “I consider myself extremely lucky to have had NZC’s help in resolving the issue. So that I can continue to support the White Ferns. Before I leave, I want everyone to know that I’m committed and focused on giving this group my all. I’m eager to contribute over the next six to nine months. Am quite pleased about the direction this young group is taking.”

According to Liz Green, the Head of Women’s High Performance at NZC. Devine’s choice to sign a casual deal will allow another athlete to sign a full contract. As the 17-member core contracts list will be revealed tomorrow.

Green stated that Sophie has served the White Ferns for almost 20 years, and NZC is completely in support of her efforts to find greater balance at this point in her career.

We are happy that we were able to come to a deal that allows her to continue playing for the White Ferns on an as-needed basis while providing room for another player to sign a full contract.

Glenn Maxwell announces his retirement from ODI

Posted on by [email protected]

In order to fully focus on T20 cricket, Australian all-rounder Glenn Maxwell has declared his retirement from ODI cricket. Maxwell played in 149 One-Day Internationals (ODIs) between 2012 and 2025. Amassing 3990 runs and taking 77 wickets. In 2015 and 2023, he played for Australia’s World Cup-winning teams.

Maxwell was a powerful hitter who averaged 33.81 runs per game with a strike rate of 126.70. In the 2023 World Cup, he scored an undefeated 201 against Afghanistan. Which is considered to be his best ODI performance to date and maybe the best innings ever played. He recorded 23 half-centuries and three more hundred. In his bowling career, he picked four four-fers and was a good offspinner. In addition to being an excellent fielder. He has 91 catches in the format.

According to Cricket Australia, Maxwell made the choice in preparation of the 2026 T20 World Cup. Which will be played in India and Sri Lanka. Maxwell’s goal to concentrate on the Big Bash League and other international obligations was also mentioned by the board.

“I think back to right at the start I was picked ahead of my time and out of the blue,” Maxwell stated, looking back on his career and retirement decision. Being able to play a few games for Australia made me feel proud. I assumed I would only experience it.

I’ve been lucky to experience the highs and lows of being dropped, being brought back, participating in a couple World Cups, and being a member of some outstanding teams ever since.

Glenn Maxwell

Earlier this year, Maxwell played his final ODI match against India in the Champions Trophy. Maxwell will not be participating in the current IPL due to a leg injury.

My body’s reaction to the situation led me to believe that. I was failing the team in some way. I had a pleasant talk with the Chair of Selectors, George Bailey. He responded on the Final Word Podcast when I asked him what he thought might happen in the future.

It’s time to start setting things up so that people in my position can try their hand at it and take over the role, I told him, since I don’t think I’ll make it. The 2027 World Cup came up. In order to keep that position, I hope they have adequate lead time.

“I used to say that if I still felt like I could play, I wouldn’t give up my place. I didn’t want to play purely for selfish motives and wait for a few series.

“They have the best view of the lineup heading into the next World Cup because they are heading in such a clear way. I am aware of how crucial that preparation is.

Former captain and current chair of selectors George Bailey praised Maxwell on his career. Glenn Maxwell who was instrumental in two ODI World Cup victories. He will go down as one of the most thrilling performers in one-day cricket. He is incredibly talented and skilled by nature. His field enthusiasm, missed ball abilities, and longevity have all been outstanding. His passion and commitment to representing Australia is yet another remarkable feature.

He still has a lot to give Australia in the T20 format, thankfully. If all goes according to plan, he will play a key role in the upcoming year as we prepare for the World Cup in early 2019.

Ireland names three uncapped players for the WI tour

Posted on by [email protected]

Ireland has revealed their team for the forthcoming home white-ball series against the West Indies, starting on May 21. Paul Stirling will remain the captain of the Ireland team in both T20Is and ODIs, with Lorcan Tucker appointed as his vice-captain. Mark Adair is a notable exclusion from the ODI squad as he is still recovering from an injury. However, he is anticipated to make his comeback for the T20Is.

The squad selected by Ireland also includes three players who have yet to earn a cap. But could make their international debuts: Cade Carmichael (right-handed batter), Tom Mayes (fast bowler), and Liam McCarthy (fast bowler). Only the ODIs will feature Carmichael and Mayes. While McCarthy has been selected for both the ODI and T20I squads.

Ben White and Ross Adair will be taking part only in the T20Is. The ODI squads do not include them.

Ireland T20I & ODI

Regarding the chosen teams, National Men’s Selector Andrew White lauded the three players without caps for demonstrating their talent during last month’s Ireland Wolves tour of the UAE and expressed hope that they would advance to a higher level of cricket.

For several years now, Cade Carmichael has been in the pathway. In April, he showcased his talent, stroke play, and resilience for the Wolves. His ascent over the past few years shows how consistent performances and his ability to adapt his game to different conditions have led to an International call-up.

Along the same lines, two seam bowlers Liam McCarthy and Tom Mayes have been acknowledged for their reliability and their capacity to elevate their performance. When needed both players contribute uniquely to the team: Mayes with his stature and precision, and McCarthy. Who adds a different dynamic to our offense and will certainly test the batters’ techniques.

The West Indies will compete in Ireland for the first time since 2019. The series will kick off on May 21 with three ODIs until May 25, followed by a three-match T20I series in June from the 12th to the 15th. The reason for the two-and-a-half-week hiatus is that during this time, England will be touring the West Indies.

Ireland ODI squad:

Paul Stirling (c), Matthew Humphreys, Josh Little, Tom Mayes, Andrew Balbirnie, Curtis Campher, Cade Carmichael, George Dockrell, Andrew McBrine, Barry McCarthy, Liam McCarthy, Harry Tector, Lorcan Tucker, and Craig Young

Ireland T20I squad:

According to a press statement from New Zealand Cricket (NZC), the country has also called up all-rounder Nathan Smith and ‘keeper-batter Mitch Hay for the first time in the 15-man roster.

In March, Nathan Smith won the title of NZC’s Domestic Player of the Year. In addition to recording career-best figures of 4 for 5 in the Super Smash, he took 24 wickets in the domestic ODI and T20 leagues. However, earlier this year, Hay, 24, was named Canterbury’s male Player of the Year.

Zak Foulkes, Jacob Duffy, and Lockie Ferguson make up the pace attack, and Ish Sodhi will be the team’s most seasoned spinner. All-round spin bowlers Dean Foxcroft, Michael Bracewell, and Glenn Phillips will join with Sodhi. Lastly, the batting lineup will consist of Josh Clarkson, Tim Robinson, Phillips, Henry Nicholls, Mark Chapman, and Will Young.

To get ready for the three-match Test series against England, eight players from the current Test series against India. Tom Blundell, Devon Conway, Tom Latham, Daryl Mitchell, Will O’Rourke, Rachin Ravindra, Tim Southee, and Kane Williamson were not selected.

Rohit Sharma explains their reasons for not wanting to bring Mohammed Shami to Australia.

Posted on by [email protected]

Earlier to the forthcoming Border-Gavaskar Test series against Australia, India’s captain for both Test and ODI cricket, Rohit Sharma, revealed some unsettling news regarding the health of pacer Mohammed Shami. Before the opening Test match between India and New Zealand in Bengaluru. Rohit told the media that he doubted Shami would make the trip to Australia for the five-match series. Shami has been sidelined since the 2023 ODI World Cup, despite expectations that he will make a comeback.

Mohammed Shami is “undercooked,” according to Rohit, because of his extended layoff from cricket and his most recent knee problems. Shami’s knee swelling hindered his healing process and necessitated that he resume his rehabilitation at the National Cricket Academy (NCA). Where medical professionals and physiotherapists are assisting him. The decision to hold Shami out is to make sure he doesn’t return too soon. Rohit underlined, emphasizing how important it is for him to achieve full health before rejoining the team.

“We wish to avoid sending an undercooked Shami to Australia,” Rohit expressed. He went on to say that Shami’s level of readiness is questionable and that while he continues his rehabilitation under the team’s medical experts, the emphasis is on a full recovery to avoid any setbacks.

Australia has many things depending on its journey to CT 2025.

In exactly two months’ time, Australia would have completed an entire year as men’s ODI world champions for the sixth time in history. No cricket fan in India of course has forgotten the events of November 19, 2023, quite yet. But the last 10 months since that incredible evening in Ahmedabad have slipped by so inconspicuously for the Australian ODI team, that you’d think some sections of the cricket audience in Australia might need a reminder. Especially since we are in September, and it’s finals season for all the major football codes around the country.

But it’s also a reflection of the times that ODI cricket isn’t as popular as it once was. Maybe it’s because there have been so many other cricket competitions held in the interim. Including another World Cup with a T20 format.

Australia

Only the fourth One-Day International (ODI) will be played by Australia. After they regained their crown last November when they depart on Thursday, September 19. While Pat Cummins prepares for the Test summer back home, it will also be the first time some of their World Cup stars have played in 50-over cricket since November 19. Mitchell Marsh, the current captain, will be the first.

In case you missed it, Australia has already participated in five international cricket matches in the UK. Over the past several weeks, with one being washed out. They tied England in the Twenty20 International series after thrashing Scotland 3-0. Even though the two series didn’t exactly create headlines, the fact that white-ball cricket matches start late in this region of the world. Aren’t shown on free-to-air TV in Australia may perhaps have something to do with it.

The five ODIs against England should presumably generate a little more attention. First off, it will be beneficial that the games start much earlier, allowing the majority of Australians to watch the majority of the first innings before going to bed. There will undoubtedly be greater significance to events occurring in the upcoming weeks, beginning with Nottingham’s opening match. In five months, there will be a Champions Trophy to look forward to. The Australians have only ever won this competition once, back in 2009. Historically, they have not had much success in it. Additionally, there has been a lot of talk from the influential figures in Australian cricket.

Jos Buttler is out of the Australia T20Is; Salt is the replacement captain.

Posted on by [email protected]

Due to a right calf injury, England captain Jos Buttler will not be playing in the forthcoming Twenty20 International series against Australia. The England and Wales Cricket Board confirmed this on Thursday, September 5, adding that Buttler may also miss the following five-match ODI series later in the month. Phil Salt has been designated stand-in captain in his absence.

Jos Buttler was ruled out of the competition after sustaining the injury prior to The Hundred. Although it was anticipated that he would recuperate in time for the white-ball series against Australia. He might miss the full English summer if the ailment worsens. Since England’s 2024 T20 World Cup semifinal exit in late June, Buttler has not played.

All-around player Jamie Overton was called up to the T20I team as a replacement. Although as he heals from a back stress issue, he may bat only. The ODI team has added Jordan Cox as cover. Who is currently a member of the England red-ball lineup for the ongoing series against Sri Lanka.

The England Women’s team will face off against the New Zealand Women’s team in the opening game of the three-game ODI series at Chester-le-Street in Durham on Wednesday. England has shown a strong advantage over New Zealand, securing victories in the previous three series hosted in their home country. The England Women’s team has been performing exceptionally well, achieving a win in 8 out of their last 10 matches since 2023. On the other hand, the New Zealand Women’s team has only managed to secure victories in 5 out of their last 12 matches since the same year.

The Chester-le-Street Riverside Ground in England has seen three One Day International (ODI) matches where the team chosen to bat first has clinched victories in two of them. Yet, in each of these matches, regardless of the result, the team’s captain has chosen to field after winning the toss. This means the likelihood of winning the toss translates to a 33.3% victory rate at Chester-le-Street.

When a team bats first at this ground, they tend to score an average of 168/9, whereas their opponents, chasing the target, usually manage an average score of 139/8.

England’s women’s team is the clear favorite when playing at home, with a 70% chance of winning. They possess a strong lineup in both batting and bowling, along with a remarkable home record against New Zealand.
