Pretorius had fractured his left thumb in the third T20I against India, which was South Africa’s only win in the three-match series.

Liam Livingstone and Will Jacks are in contention to make their Test debuts after being included in England’s 15-man squad for their tour to Pakistan as spin-bowling allrounders.

None of the other reserve players – Shreyas Iyer, Ravi Bishnoi and Deepak Chahar – are travelling at the moment.

Dawid Malan has described the ECB’s process for awarding central contracts as “a slightly strange system” after he was demoted to an incremental deal. Malan had a full central contract for the year October 2021-September 2022 but lost his place in the Test side after England’s 4-0 defeat in the Ashes in Australia. As a
Harshal Patel has gone from strength to strength over the last few years. With consistent performances in the Indian Premier League (IPL), the 31-year-old has become a consistent feature in the Indian T20I team. With the 2022 T20 World Cup just around the corner and Jasprit Bumrah ruled out due to injury, all eyes
Australia’s search for a new limited-overs captain has not got any easier with Mitchell Marsh ruling himself out of the job.

Usman Khawaja and Aaron Finch feel that for ODI cricket to remain interesting, the number of overs should be brought down to 40 for each innings. “I think I’d like one-day cricket more if it was 40 overs,” Khawaja told ABC Sport. “I played Pro40 in England a few years ago when they were playing

Big picture After touching down in Australia for the build-up to their winter’s main event, England duly hit the ground running in a richly entertaining opening T20I in Perth.

New Zealand 131 for 1 (Allen 62, Conway 49*, Shadab 1-26) beat Pakistan 130 for 7 (Bracewell 2-11, Santner 2-27, Southee 2-31) by nine wickets On a subcontinental-style pitch in Christchurch, New Zealand’s spin quartet, led by offspinner Michael Bracewell, pinned down Pakistan to a below-par 130 for 7 and set up the hosts’ second
When Wade got a top edge against Wood in the 17th over, with Australia needing 39 off 22 balls, he blocked the fast bowler’s attempt to reach the catch with an out-stretched arm in what appeared to be a clear case of obstructing the field. However, England captain Jos Buttler, who said he had not
Until 48 hours ago, Bangladesh looked set for a semi-final place to try and defend their Asia Cup title. They needed two points from their last two matches, but they lost to Sri Lanka in a rain-shortened match, where they failed to chase 41 in seven overs. With two overs left in the chase, Bangladesh
West Indies batter John Campbell is considering appealing against the four-year ban he was handed on October 7 for an anti-doping violation.

India Women 40 for 1 (Meghana 20*, Vastrakar 12*) beat Thailand Women 37 (Rana 3-9, Gayakwad 2-8) by nine wickets India strolled to a nine-wicket win against Thailand in the Women’s T20 Asia Cup after spinners Deepti Sharma, Sneh Rana and Rajeshwari Gayakwad shared seven wickets between them.

Big picture With a prize as big as a T20 World Cup on offer in little more than a month’s time, and teams including the hosts of this three-match ODI series having their eye firmly set on the marquee event, it would be easy to dismiss the decider as not such a big deal. But
India 158 for 6 (Suryakumar 52, Behrendorff 2-26) beat Western Australia XI 145 for 8 (Fanning 59, Arshdeep 3-6, Bhuvneshwar 2-26) by 13 runs The Indian team, which has been training at the WACA for the past three days, wanted to get used to the pace and bounce of the track. They made 158 for

Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chief Ramiz Raja recently made a strong statement about the cricketing equation between India and Pakistan.

When India stalwart Ravichandran Ashwin was informed about Ramiz’s comments, he
Aaron Finch has confirmed he will return to the top of the order for Wednesday’s clash with England as Australia’s T20 World Cup preparations ramp up.

After not touring Pakistan for 19 years, New Zealand are all set to visit the country twice in the space of five months to play two Tests, eight ODIs and five T20Is. It means New Zealand will not play home fixtures over the Christmas and New Year’s season this year, and will have to deal
Shreyas Iyer is enjoying a purple patch, with four half-centuries and a hundred in his last six ODI innings. That’s some unreal form in different conditions: from the bounce of the red-soil surface in Ahmedabad, to the sluggish pitches in the Caribbean, and biscuit-brown Ranchi. His latest innings in Ranchi on Sunday was only his
