Aussie veteran batters make hay on county circuit
Marcus Harris and Peter Handscomb have continued their productive English county summers, the two veteran Australian internationals both producing fine captain's knocks in the One-Day Cup. Handscomb, who's had a fine season leading Leicestershire to the top of division two of the County Championship, had a landmark Sunday, scoring his third hundred of the season while going past 20,000 career runs in all forms of the game. Alas, the 34-year-old couldn't end his big day with what he really wanted as Leicester were edged out by three wickets at Bristol by a Gloucestershire side featuring his old international colleague Cameron Bancroft. Captains knock of 95 from our Aussie skipper! 🫡🇦🇺🌹 #RedRoseTogether — Lancashire Cricket (@lancscricket) August 10, 2025 But 33-year-old Harris, who was entrusted mid-season with taking the reins at struggling Lancashire, had much to smile about as he cracked a match-winning 95 in their two-wicket victory over Somerset at Taunton. Handscomb has had a terrific summer at Grace Road, having notched a couple of championship centuries and been widely praised for his shrewd captaincy. His 107 off 125 balls, featuring nine fours and a six over long-off to reach three figures, was the Victorian's ninth list-A hundred and looked well set to earn Leicester a win in England's premier 50-over competition as they amassed 7-285. Scoring a brilliant 💯 & taking your career runs passed 2️⃣0️⃣,0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ Many congratulations to @leicsccc captain Peter Handscomb ©️ — PCA (@PCA) August 10, 2025 But Gloucestershire, given a bright start by Bancroft (40 off 49) and the brilliant James Bracey (96 off 106 balls), eked their way to victory when rookie batter Tommy Boorman saw them home with 33 not out with nine balls remaining. At Taunton, Harris, who is also closing in on 1000 county championship runs this season, again proved inspirational as he led the chase of Somerset's 7-250 with his eighth score of 50 or more this season with Lancashire. He looked odds-on to record his fourth ton of the summer after cracking seven fours and two sixes, but, off the 99th ball he faced, finally succumbed to the left-arm spin of Lewis Goldsworthy, giving a catch to Kian Roberts at mid-off with five needed. But along with George Balderson, with whom he'd shared a century partnership for the fifth wicket, Harris had set Lancashire on the way to a victory with eight balls to spare. Another Australian in the runs on Sunday was Tasmanian Caleb Jewell, who continued his magnificent summer for Derbyshire with a brisk 60 off 70 balls at the top of their innings against Nottinghamshire at Derby, setting the tone for his side's eventual 127-run win.

West Indies levels series with a 5-wicket victory over Pakistan in the second ODI
TAROUBA, Trinidad and Tobago (AP) — Roston Chase and Justin Greaves led West Indies to a five-wicket victory over Pakistan with 10 balls to spare in the rain-reduced second one-day cricket international on Sunday, leveling the three-match series at 1-1. Chase's 49 not out off 47 balls included two sixes and the winning boundary as West Indies scored 184-5 in 33.2 overs. The hosts were chasing a revised target of 181 runs in 35 overs under the DLS method after multiple rain interruptions saw Pakistan's innings end at 171-7 in 37 overs. Right-arm fast bowler Jayden Seales took 3-23 in seven overs. West Indies stumbled from 101-3 after 18 overs at Brian Lara Stadium in Tarouba, Trinidad and Tobago, to 111-5 off 24 overs, including the wicket of Sherfane Rutherford, who hit a 33-ball 45 with three sixes and six fours. Chase and Greaves (26 off 31) shared a 77-run unbroken partnership for the sixth wicket. West Indies earlier chose to bowl first and Hasan Nawaz again played a key role for Pakistan with 36 not out off 30 deliveries, after his unbeaten 63 in the ODI opener. Hasan's knock on Sunday included three sixes — two of them in what turned out to be the last over of Pakistan's innings after more rain. Hussain Talat got 31 off 32 balls but most Pakistan batters were much slower, including captain Mohammad Rizwan who was trapped lbw by Gudakesh Motie for a 38-ball 16. Pakistan beat West Indies in the first one-day international on Friday, also by five wickets. The third and final match in the ODI series is scheduled for Tuesday at the same stadium. Pakistan won the preceding Twenty20 series 2-1 played in Florida. ___ AP cricket:
