Harleen Deol faces flak for bizarre run out in 1st Women's ODI: Embarrassing running
In the 22nd over, Harleen tapped Charlie Dean to the on-side and set off for a quick single. However, Alice Davidson-Richards reacted swiftly, collecting the ball and executing a direct hit at the non-striker's end.Though Harleen had nearly completed the run, she attempted to leap into the crease instead of grounding her bat. Before she could land, the direct hit had already dislodged the bails. The decision was referred to the third umpire, who confirmed the dismissal.Harleen walked back after scoring 27 off 44 balls, including four boundaries, leaving India at 102 for three.Here's the videoDirect hit.

Many criticised her for a lack of urgency and effort, calling the dismissal avoidable. One fan even remarked that Harleen was fortunate Sunil Gavaskar wasn't commentating on the women's game, implying he would have been harsh in his critique.'Harleen Deol is lucky Sunil Gavaskar does not commentate on women's cricket. Unexcusable stuff for a gully cricketer that. Let alone international cricket,' the fan wrote. Another fan wrote, 'Absolutely embarrassing running between the wickets that from Harleen Deol.' Another fan said, 'Stupidest way to get out. Harleen Deol was super sloppy! She was only to be blamed. No one should (get) out so casually.'

Ex-Coach's Big Call On India's 11: 'Anshul Kamboj Won't Get Another...'
Sanjay Bangar predicts India may drop Anshul Kamboj for the final Test against England. Akash Deep and Arshdeep Singh may compete for spots. Dhruv Jurel will replace injured Pant. Former India batting coach Sanjay Bangar envisages India dropping pacer Anshul Kamboj for the final Test of the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy against England, which begins on July 31 at The Oval. He pointed to incumbent head coach Gautam Gambhir's declaration that all pacers were 'fit', saying that Kamboj would find it difficult to be ahead of the frontline options in such a scenario. Kamboj made his Test debut in the last Test in Manchester but could pick just one wicket. There were concerns about his pace and match-fitness, but it looked clear that he had been slightly rushed, having been called up from India as an emergency support after both Akash Deep and Arshdeep Singh went down injured. The latter two have recovered now and are likely to compete for the available spots. 'From tomorrow evening onwards, they'll begin planning for the next match," JioHotstar expert Bangar said on 'Match Centre Live'. 'One thing is certain — the designated wicketkeeper will return. I don't think Anshul Kamboj will get another opportunity this time, especially with all the frontline fast bowlers reportedly fit. Arshdeep Singh is also available as an option. So, which bowling combination they choose becomes a tricky decision." The designated wicketkeeper in this case would be Dhruv Jurel, who'll replace the injured Rishabh Pant, who suffered a foot fracture at Old Trafford. Bangar said the other toss-up would be deciding whether to go with an aggressive spin option in Kuldeep Yadav or play safe with all-rounder Shardul Thakur. 'Now that Washington Sundar and Ravindra Jadeja have more or less secured their places, Akash Deep could come back into the equation. You also need to slot in the wicketkeeper, which locks in seven positions already. The big call is — who plays at No. 8? Do they go with Kuldeep Yadav or bring back Shardul Thakur? That's the decision Gautam and Shubman will have to make." India will also have to check if Mohammed Siraj can play a fifth Test on the trot and if Jasprit Bumrah wouldn't mind breaking the pre-series instructions that he should play only three matches to manage workload. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Century at Old Trafford, Style on Instagram: Washington Sundar Is India's Quiet Game Changer—On and Off the Field
Last Updated: Washington Sundar's epic Old Trafford century signals his cricketing resurgence, while his minimalist, authentic fashion choices are making him a Gen Z icon. When India found themselves gasping at 0/2 on day five of the fourth Test at Manchester's storied Old Trafford, not many could have foreseen a result that would shift the series narrative. And despite KL Rahul and Shubman Gill's epic stand of 188 runs, India were still not out of the woods. Enter Washington Sundar, promoted up the order with Rishabh Pant sidelined, striding in with an air of composure that belied the occasion. Sundar's unbeaten 101—his maiden international century—became the axis around which India's great escape swung, ably partnered by Ravindra Jadeja in a defiant, undefeated 203-run stand. While the hosts circled, desperate for a 3-1 lead, Sundar and Jadeja batted through the storm, transforming adversity into an exhibition of grit and clarity. As coach and commentators alike acknowledged, this innings will be remembered not just for the numbers, but for the sheer maturity Sundar exuded under pressure. For a player often viewed as a bits-and-pieces all-rounder, this was a coming-of-age performance: technical, prepared, and impervious to noise. Sundar's own words, 'A Test hundred is something truly unique. Every century matters, but this one holds special significance," underscored both a personal milestone and a broader message of resilience. But if his cricket captured the imagination of millions, it's Sundar's understated off-field swagger that's refreshing the playbook of Indian athletic icons. Among a generation of cricketers increasingly alive to the demands of image culture, Sundar stands out—not by chasing trends, but by redefining them. His Instagram feed offers a compelling visual story: swerves into streetwear, vacation fits in Harare sun, nods to Chennai roots with veshti drapes, and collaborations with youthful brands like Puma and Anker that favor substance and versatility over loudness. His style mantra? 'Have fun with comfort." Sundar plays with colors, but shrugs at flamboyant prints. He prefers joggers, hoodies, and carrot-fit pants over attention-grabbing statements—a wardrobe that quietly balances cosmopolitan ease and rootedness. The occasional cap or sneaker drop hints at a collector's sensibility. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Washington Sundar (@washisundar555) Even his brand partnerships are thoughtfully chosen: global sportswear labels and innovation-driven tech, reflecting a personality that's evolving but never pretentious. tags : India vs England 2025 Off The Field Washington Sundar view comments Location : New Delhi, India, India First Published: July 29, 2025, 19:02 IST News cricket Century at Old Trafford, Style on Instagram: Washington Sundar Is India's Quiet Game Changer—On and Off the Field Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
