During Day 4 of the second Test match against West Indies in Port of Spain, Rohit Sharma achieved a historic feat, becoming the first batsman in Test cricket history to record 30 consecutive double-digit scores. This incredible milestone surpassed the previous record held by Sri Lanka's Mahela Jayawardene, who had 29 double-digit scores to his name. Rohit's remarkable consistency has proven that he is not just a specialist in white-ball cricket but also a formidable batter in Test cricket, matching his prowess in limited-overs formats.

Examining Rohit Sharma's last 30 Test innings, we can see his consistency on display: 12, 161, 26, 66, 25*, 49, 34, 30, 36, 12*, 83, 21, 19, 59, 11, 127, 29, 15, 46, 120, 32, 31, 12, 12, 35, 15, 43, 103, 80, 57.

IND vs WI: India took a first-innings lead without losing a wicket for the first time in Test cricket

2023-07-13T23:15:00.001-07:00

1 It's the first instance of India taking the first-innings lead without losing a wicket. The closest they came before this match was in the 1978 Sydney Test, where Gavaskar and Chauhan had a 97-run opening stand after Australia got bowled out for 131.

Cricket Update IND vs WI: A record , R Ashwin becomes first Indian bowler to dismiss father-son duo in Test cricket

2023-07-12T10:15:00.001-07:00

In a remarkable feat, Ravichandran Ashwin etched his name in history by dismissing Tagenarine Chanderpaul in the first innings of the opening Test.

This achievement marked Ashwin as the first Indian bowler to dismiss both the father and son duo in the longest format of the game.

Prior to this, Ashwin had also claimed the wicket of Shivnarine Chanderpaul, the father of Tagenarine and the current opening batter for the West Indies. Ashwin's strategic approach was evident as he skillfully set up the left-handed batsman. Tagenarine, unfortunately, failed to anticipate the line and length of a delivery that swung in, resulting in his dismissal by being bowled.

Watch:

Meanwhile, Ashwin has surpassed the renowned spin bowler Anil Kumble to become the Indian cricketer with the highest number of bowled dismissals in Test cricket. Ashwin achieved his 95th scalp, surpassing Kumble's record of 94, and is now closely followed by Kapil Dev with 88 dismissals and Mohammed Shami with 66.

Earlier, Kraigg Brathwaite won the toss and elected to bat first against the visiting team. As the match commenced, the promising talents of Yashasvi Jaiswal and Ishan Kishan were bestowed with their debut caps, marking a significant milestone in their cricketing careers.

Two-time champions West Indies failed to qualify for the 2023 ODI World Cup in India after suffering a shock seven-wicket defeat against Scotland in a Super Six match of the qualifier in Harare on 1st July 2023, Saturday. West Indies needed a win against the Scots to keep their slim qualification hopes alive but were bowled out for 181. Riding on Matthew Cross and Brandon McMullen knocks, Scotland chased down the target with 6.3 overs to spare.

The champions of the 1975 and 1979 editions, this is the first time in the 48 years of tournament history that West Indies won't feature among the top 10 teams in limited-overs cricket. It was also Scotland's first-ever win over the Caribbean side in the ODIs.

With two more matches left, even if West Indies win, they can reach up to four points while Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe already have six points in their three games. Scotland with this win is on four points and would reckon that an upset can help them sneak into the tournament proper.

Ironically, West Indies were forced to play the qualifier before the 2019 World Cup also but eventually managed to finish in the top two along with Afghanistan to save themselves from embarrassment.

Cricket Update: Major Indian Cricket Venues Miss Out On Hosting Matches In ODI World Cup 2023

2023-06-30T21:04:00.000-07:00

Few Grounds which miss out to host match for this WC 2023:

1. Jharkhand State Cricket Association International Stadium - Ranchi

The Jharkhand State Cricket Association International Stadium in Ranchi, the hometown of former Indian captain MS Dhoni, is a cricket ground with immense significance. Known for its electric atmosphere, this venue has hosted many memorable encounters in the past. However, despite its popularity, Ranchi did not find a place in the list of World Cup venues this time.

2. Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium - Rajkot

Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Rajkot, Gujarat, is another notable cricket center that did not receive any matches in the upcoming World Cup. The stadium has witnessed some exciting matches in the past, both international and domestic. However, it will have to wait for another opportunity to showcase its cricketing charm on the grand stage.

3. Holkar Cricket Stadium - Indore

Known for its passionate cricket fans and the Holkar Cricket Stadium, Indore is a regular host of international matches. With a capacity of over 30,000 spectators, this venue has witnessed some memorable cricketing moments. Despite having staged an ODI and a Test earlier this year, Indore failed to secure a World Cup fixture this time around.

4. The Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium - Nagpur

The Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium in Nagpur, Maharashtra, is another prominent cricket venue that missed out on hosting any matches in the ODI World Cup 2023. Known for its excellent infrastructure and past hosting experiences, Nagpur has welcomed many thrilling encounters. However, this time, it will not witness any World Cup action.

5. Punjab Cricket Association IS Bindra Stadium - Mohali

Mohali, located near Chandigarh in Punjab, is known for its state-of-the-art cricket stadium, the Punjab Cricket Association IS Bindra Stadium. Having previously hosted numerous high-profile matches, including the World Cup semi-finals in 1996 and 2011, it came as a surprise that Mohali did not make the cut this time. The stadium's capacity and historical significance make it a popular choice for cricket enthusiasts, but unfortunately, it won't be part of the World Cup action.

ICC World Cup 2023 Qualifiers: West Indies in danger of missing first ODI World Cup, it has to win all super six games

2023-06-28T04:23:00.001-07:00

After the riveting league phase, the men's ODI World Cup qualifier has reached the Super Six, where Zimbabwe, Netherlands, West Indies, Sri Lanka, Scotland and Oman will contest for two spots at the main event in India later this year.

The cut-throat nature of the qualifier has already left West Indies, who were pre-tournament favourites along with Sri Lanka, on the brink of elimination. Unless the stars align in their favour in a big way, they - champions in the first two editions in 1975 and 1979 - will not feature in the ODI World Cup for the first time. This, after they had failed to make it to the T20 World Cup in Australia last year.

Victories in their three matches will obviously give them the best chance of qualification, but even then they will be at the mercy of several other results going in their favour.

To start with, they will have to hope that both Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe lose at least two of their three games; if they win two, they will both move to eight points, which will guarantee qualification.

Zimbabwe and former champions Sri Lanka find themselves in a favorable position to secure the last two qualifying berths for this year's ODI World Cup, while the West Indies, who have won the trophy twice, stare at the possible embarrassment of missing the tournament for the first time.

Having triumphed in all four group matches, Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka enter the crucial Super Six stage of the qualifiers with four points each, carrying over the rewards obtained from defeating the teams that also progressed from the initial round.

With their impressive batting performances, including a national record-breaking score of 408-6 against the USA, Zimbabwe can approach the upcoming matches with confidence, expecting the runs to keep flowing as the stakes heighten from Thursday.

"We have found our momentum and we are looking forward to carrying it," said Sean Williams, who scored 174 in Monday's 304-run rout of the USA.

Indian Stock markets : registered all-time highs as Sensex crossed the 69,000 mark and Nifty topped the 19,000 mark

2023-06-28T03:44:00.001-07:00

Sensex and Nifty scaled back towards the end but registered all-time highs as Sensex crossed the 69,000 mark and Nifty topped the 19,000 mark in today's session.

Discussing the reason for today's market's performance, Jaykrishna Gandhi, Head - Business Development, Institutional Equities, Emkay Global Financial Services said, "There might be another rate hike, but increasingly the odds of recession are reducing making way for a soft landing. This is reflected in the market buoyancy, which eases concerns on the EMs. Crude prices have remained stable to weak despite the Russian coup attempt, weaker crude prices are largely driven by poor China macro as compared to global health being questioned."

The moves in the local indexes contrasted with a mixed mood in Asian peers, where global growth concerns overshadowed upbeat U.S. economic news.

Tokyo rallied in the second half to end with good gains, while Seoul, Hong Kong and Shanghai ended in the flat-to-red zone. European markets are trading in positive territory. The US markets ended significantly higher on Tuesday.

ICC World Cup Qualifiers: Zimbabwe Script History, Score 400 Runs For First Time In ODI Cricket

Zimbabwe cricket team scripted history in their ICC World Cup Qualifier clash against the United States as they scored a total of over 400 runs for the first time in ODI cricket. Riding on a sensational knock from Sean Williams, Zimbabwe posted a massive total of 408 runs after playing the 50 overs against the United States at the Harare Sports Club on Monday (June 26).

First, openers Gumbie and Innocent Kaia got their side to a fine start but Jessy Singh trapped Kaia for 32 off 41 balls. However, Williams walked to play one of the best knocks of cricket career smashing 174 runs off just 101 balls with 21 boundaries and five maximums.

Gumbie was also dismissed later on 78 off 104 by Nosthush Kenjige but Williams kept the flow of runs coming from the other end. Sikandar Raza 48 (27) and Ryal Burl 47 (16) also played their part helping their team reach the 400-run mark for the first time in history.

Zimbabwe's performance against the USA showcases the potential they have to compete at the highest level. Recently, they pulled off an impressive win against the West Indies in the ongoing World Cup Qualifiers. With three consecutive wins in their previous encounters against Nepal, the Netherlands, and West Indies, Zimbabwe is poised for further success in the Super Six stage.

Just for info: Today has been the hottest day of the year ..!

Today has been the hottest day of the year

Britain has recorded the joint hottest day of the year so far, with temperatures soaring to 32.2C.

The mercury shot up in Coningsby, Lincolnshire, equalling the figure in Chertsey, Surrey, on June 10.

A heat health warning is in place which covers most of England until 9am tomorrow, as the Met Office warned sun-bathers to enjoy the heat responsibly.

It comes after a teenage girl died after being pulled from the sea over the weekend.

The forecaster also issued a yellow warning for thunderstorms for parts of England and Scotland today from 1pm-9pm, which could cause localised flooding.

Some areas could see 30-40mm of rainfall in 1-2 hours, but this is expected to 'vary significantly', while some places are forecast to see hail up to 3cm in diameter along with strong, gusty winds, the Met Office said.

Beaches including Brighton have been packed on what is the joint hottest day of the year

General Awareness: Some amazing facts about Antarctica , a study material on Antarctica , with images

2023-06-24T20:56:00.001-07:00

Do you know: One area of the world that needs our help the most is Antarctica, with its ice melts affecting the entire world's climate.

Ninety-nine percent of Antarctica is covered by ice.

Antarctica is the southernmost continent on Earth and is located almost entirely within the Antarctic Circle. Here are some key points of information about Antarctica:

Geography: Antarctica is the fifth-largest continent, covering an area of approximately 14 million square kilometers (5.4 million square miles). It is largely covered by ice, with an average thickness of about 2,160 meters (7,087 feet). The highest point is Mount Vinson, reaching 4,892 meters (16,050 feet) above sea level.

Climate: Antarctica is the coldest place on Earth. The average temperature in winter ranges from -40°C (-40°F) to -60°C (-76°F), while in summer, it can reach -15°C (5°F) along the coast. The continent is characterized by strong winds and low precipitation, primarily in the form of snowfall.

Scientific Research: Antarctica is an important destination for scientific research. Several countries have research stations and field camps scattered across the continent, where scientists study various disciplines such as climate change, glaciology, geology, astronomy, and marine biology. The Antarctic Treaty System, signed by many nations, governs the peaceful and cooperative use of the continent for scientific purposes.

Wildlife: Despite the harsh conditions, Antarctica is home to diverse wildlife. Penguins, seals, whales, and seabirds are among the most iconic species found in the Antarctic region. The Southern Ocean surrounding Antarctica supports abundant marine life, including krill, which forms the basis of the Antarctic food chain.

Tourism: Antarctica attracts adventurous travelers who seek to explore its pristine wilderness. However, due to its fragile ecosystem, tourism is regulated through guidelines and permits to minimize environmental impact. Visitors can experience stunning icebergs, vast ice sheets, and unique wildlife through guided cruises and land excursions.

Political Status: Antarctica is governed by the Antarctic Treaty System, which came into effect in 1961. The treaty prohibits military activity, mineral mining, and nuclear testing on the continent. It also promotes scientific cooperation, environmental protection, and the freedom of scientific research.

Environmental Concerns: Antarctica is highly vulnerable to climate change. The melting of ice sheets and glaciers contributes to rising sea levels, which can have global implications. Efforts are underway to understand and mitigate the impacts of climate change on Antarctica and the world.

On average, Antarctica is the windiest continent. Winds in some places of the continent can reach 200 mph (320 km/h).

The Dry Valleys of Antarctica are a unique and extreme polar desert region located in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, a valley system in Victoria Land, East Antarctica. Here are some key details about the Dry Valleys:
The Dry Valleys of Antarctica are the driest place on Earth, with low humidity and almost no snow or ice cover.
Geographic Features: The Dry Valleys encompass a series of valleys, including Taylor Valley, Wright Valley, and Victoria Valley, among others. These valleys are characterized by their extremely dry and barren nature, devoid of any visible surface ice or snow.

Lack of Precipitation: The Dry Valleys are considered the driest places on Earth, with an annual precipitation of less than 10 centimeters (4 inches) of snowfall equivalent. The region's unique topography and katabatic winds (downslope winds) effectively prevent the accumulation of snow and ice.

Absence of Glaciers: Unlike other parts of Antarctica, the Dry Valleys have no glaciers. The combination of low precipitation, high evaporation rates, and wind scouring prevents the formation and maintenance of glaciers in this region.

Ice Sheets and Glaciers: Antarctica is covered by a massive ice sheet, known as the Antarctic Ice Sheet, which contains about 90% of the world's freshwater. The ice sheet has an average thickness of around 2,160 meters (7,087 feet) and holds an estimated 26.5 million cubic kilometers (6.36 million cubic miles) of ice. Glaciers also flow from the ice sheet towards the coast, carrying freshwater in the form of ice.

The average thickness of Antarctic ice is about 1 mile (1.6 kilometers).

Antarctica is home to Mount Erebus, the southernmost active volcano on the planet and home to Earth's only long-lived lava lakes.
Who was the first human to reach the south pole?
Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen was the first human to reach the South Pole. He beat out English explorer Robert Falcon Scott by arriving on Dec. 14, 1911, and planting the Norwegian flag.

British explorer and meteorologist Felicity Aston was the first person ever to ski across Antarctica powered only by human muscle. She traveled 1,084 miles (1,744 kilometers) in 59 days between late 2011 and early 2012.

All Abount Father's Day in terms of Chat GPT

2023-06-18T09:11:00.001-07:00

Father's Day is a special occasion celebrated in many countries around the world to honor and appreciate fathers and father figures for their love, guidance, and contribution to their families. It is a day dedicated to recognizing the important role that fathers play in the lives of their children.

Father's Day is typically celebrated on the third Sunday of June in most countries, although the exact date may vary. On this day, children, spouses, and families express their gratitude and affection towards their fathers through various gestures such as giving gifts, spending quality time together, or simply expressing their love and appreciation.

The origins of Father's Day can be traced back to the early 20th century. The idea of honoring fathers was inspired by the already established celebration of Mother's Day. A woman named Sonora Smart Dodd from Spokane, Washington, is often credited with initiating the concept of Father's Day. She wanted to honor her father, a Civil War veteran who had raised her and her siblings single-handedly after their mother passed away.

Over time, the celebration of Father's Day gained popularity and became more widespread. It became an opportunity for people to show gratitude and love to their fathers and father figures, acknowledging their efforts, sacrifices, and unconditional love.

Father's Day is a day for families to come together and create lasting memories. It is a time to reflect on the importance of paternal bonds and the positive influence fathers have on their children's lives. While gifts are a common way to show appreciation, what matters most is the sentiment behind the gesture and the opportunity to express love and gratitude.

Whether it's a simple heartfelt message, a phone call, a thoughtful gift, or spending quality time together, Father's Day provides an opportunity to celebrate and honor the special men in our lives who have played the role of fathers, mentors, and guiding figures.

England Creates Ashes History

England's suprise Day 1 declaring is an Ashes record for the earliest a team has decided to declare in the first over of an Ashes history. Previously, the record was held by Australia at the MCG in 1937, when they declared in the 66th over. However, at that time there were 8-ball overs, meaning the 2023 decision is the record.
Apart from these two, the third, fourth, and fifth earlier Ashes declarations were all taken by England in six-ball overs but in the 90th, 102nd, and 104th overs, essentially meaning on the second day of play at Lord's (1912) and Nottingham (1964 and 1956).

The Ashes is a renowned and historic cricket series played between England and Australia. It is one of the oldest and most fiercely contested rivalries in international cricket. The series takes place biennially, alternating between England and Australia.

The origin of the Ashes dates back to 1882 when Australia defeated England for the first time on English soil at The Oval in London. A satirical obituary published in a British newspaper, The Sporting Times, stated that English cricket had died and "the body will be cremated, and the ashes taken to Australia." This witty remark sparked the birth of the Ashes legend.

Following that series, a small urn, believed to contain the ashes of a cricket ball, was presented to the English captain, Ivo Bligh, by a group of Melbourne women. It was meant to symbolize the ashes of English cricket and became the trophy associated with the Ashes series.

Since then, the Ashes has become an iconic symbol of cricketing rivalry between the two nations. The series traditionally consists of five Test matches, played over several weeks. The teams compete fiercely to win the urn and claim bragging rights as the best cricketing nation.

The Ashes series has produced numerous legendary cricket moments and remarkable performances. Players like Sir Donald Bradman, Ian Botham, Shane Warne, and Alastair Cook have left an indelible mark on the history of the Ashes with their exceptional contributions.

The Ashes has captured the imagination of cricket fans around the world and is known for its intense atmosphere, passionate crowds, and captivating battles on the field. The contests between England and Australia are often marked by competitive spirit, sledging, and thrilling cricket.

Over the years, the Ashes series has evolved to include day-night Test matches and has also witnessed technological advancements, such as the introduction of Decision Review System (DRS) for umpiring decisions.

Overall, the Ashes holds a special place in cricket history, showcasing the rich tradition and rivalry between England and Australia. It remains one of the most eagerly anticipated events in the cricket calendar and continues to captivate fans with its blend of skill, drama, and national pride.
