A maiden Test five-wicket haul for Jhye Richardson Ashes WTC23.

 Australia defeated England by 275 runs in the 2nd Ashes Test in Adelaide on Monday to lead 2-0 in a five-match series. Starting the day with 82 out of 4 in an unexpected 468 chase, England pulled the trigger in the final round of the day.




Chris Woakes (44 off 97) and Jos Buttler (26 off 207) have given England hope of survival. However, Jhye Richardson (5/42) threw Australia to victory, claiming the scalps of both Woakes and Buttler.

Two Woakes-Buttler players lifted England from 105th to 6th to 166 while Richardson ended Woakes' opposition. The England all-rounder was thrown into the gate with a full cross-stitch ball - a new subtle ball. Nathan Lyon then looked very good on Ollie Robinson (8) as the seamstress pulled one out and slipped.


England went to Tea at 180 to 8. However, with Buttler still in the crease, they were optimistic. The wicketkeeper had a strange Test behind the stumps, catching the batsmen and knocking them down. No wonder his innings ended in a strange way again. After taking the crease for 258 minutes, Buttler stepped in trying to direct one Richardson. In a way, his dismissal by wicket sums up his unexpected wealth in the Test.

It seemed that the end would come soon. However, Buttler and Woakes set up a much-needed resistance. While Woakes hit a few well-timed bounds, Buttler had a defensive part. The two were undefeated as England went to dinner on Day 5, still ranked 142 out of 6.



The Buttler-Woakes duo continued to frustrate Australia with their second session. Richardson, however, ensured the Aussies had a final laugh.

Best off luck Richardson 3rd test.

Virat Kohli steps down as India Test captain

  Virat Kohli stepped down as captain of India's Test team, shortly after the day's 2-1 Test series defeat in South Africa by seven wickets in Cape Town. He took the reins as full-time Test captain in early 2015, when MS Dhoni announced his retirement from Australia, and ended up being India's most successful Test captain. Kohli's immediate announcement on Twitter comes in the wake of a series of public talks between him and BCCI, which began with his cancellation of the T20I ahead of the 2021 World Cup. In early December, the BCCI sacked Kohli, ODI captain, and named Rohit Sharma the new white leader. A day later, BCCI president Sourav Ganguly said he had asked Kohli not to step down as T20I captain, but Kohli quickly opposed Ganguly, saying his decision to withdraw was "well received", dubbed "progress" by the BCCI top brass. , and that he “was not told to reconsider” his decision. Kohli also expressed his disappointment at the same press conferenc...
