Smriti Mandhana aims to
Nottingham [UK], June 29 (ANI): India's stand-in captain, Smriti Mandhana, is looking for more success after blazing her way to her first T20I century during the series opener against England in Nottingham. Mandhana, who served as the stand-in skipper in the absence of injured Harmanpreet Kaur, led from the front as India kicked off the series with a thumping 97-run victory. With her flamboyant batting skills on display, Mandhana hammered 112 from 62 deliveries to power India to a daunting 210/5 in the first innings. Despite her record-shattering display, Mandhana revealed that T20Is don't naturally come to her due to her preference for timing over power-hitting. After getting a taste of striking a high score and breaking records, the 28-year-old southpaw is now aiming to replicate high-scoring performances in the future. 'It's a nice feeling because, of course, this format is something which, for me as a batter, I need to keep pushing and keep improving. It's not a very natural format for me because I like to time the ball, not a big hitter of the ball, and for the last six years, it's always a work in progress, and it's still a work in progress,' she said as quoted from the ICC. 'So, to actually get a hundred in this format, of course, getting it before in Test cricket and One Day cricket, which are more suited to my batting [was significant as well], but getting it in this format is pretty special because it's not one of my strengths. I mean, the improvement, and I'm trying to work a lot on my power hitting and to see that come through, which is a really nice feeling,' she added. In the series opener, young Shafali Verma returned to the Indian setup for the first time after being dropped in late 2024. Her return didn't begin on a sparkling note as she struggled for rhythm and returned to the dressing room with a scratchy knock of 20(22). Despite an unimpressive outing, Mandhana exuded confidence in the youngster. 'I've seen Shafali bat in the last seven-eight days, [she did] amazingly well in the nets. So I don't see a big knock is too far because of the way she's been hitting the ball. Sometimes, coming back into the Indian team and coming into the first match, of course, there are a different kind of nerves. I'm sure this match is going to take those nerves away for her,' she said. After taking a 1-0 lead, India will look to extend it in the second contest, which is scheduled to take place on Tuesday at the Seat Unique Stadium in Bristol. (ANI)

Already relegated from FIH Pro League, India women slump to 2-3 defeat to China to finish bottom of the table
Before the Indian women's hockey team's final match of the FIH Pro League started, their analytical coach, Dave Smolenaars, said the team need to work on both sides of the pitch. The advice was implemented only in the first quarter as the team lost 2-3 to Paris Olympics silver medallists China and were relegated to the FIH Nations Cup after finishing last in the points table. The team, coached by Harendra Singh, failed to win any match in the European League of the tournament and ended the tournament with only 10 points to receive the wooden spoon. Though the relegation was confirmed before the match even started, the Indian team would have liked to finish with a win. But they lost despite taking an early lead in the first quarter, showing inconsistency throughout the match. India started well with two attacks from both flanks, while China also attacked through their midfield. China earned a penalty corner in the seventh minute, but it was saved by the Indian defence, which has generally been poor while defending penalty corners. India's best moment of the match came in the ninth minute when forward Sunelita Toppo received a ball from the midfield outside of the circle, ran towards the circle, and unleashed a precise diagonal shot across the turf to give India the lead in the match. The Indian defence did well to thwart three circle penetrations from China and defend one penalty corner. However, as the second quarter started, the Chinese team came all guns blazing. They won three consecutive penalty corners in the fourth minute, with the third one being converted by Ying Zhang in the 19th minute. India had a numerical advantage in the 24th minute as Liu Chencheng was shown a green card, but the team failed to capitalise on it with Deepika fluffing a 1v2 opportunity. China's relentless attack resulted in another penalty corner in the last minute of the quarter, which was expertly converted by Zhang again, who smashed her flick into the roof of the net, giving the Indian defence no chance. The half-time dressing room talk from the coach seemed to have worked, but only for 15 minutes, as the Indian team attacked well in the third quarter, conceding no penalty corners and scoring the equalizer. Despite losing Lalremsiami for two minutes due to a green card, India themselves earned a host of penalty corners. In the 38th minute, they tried a variation during one of them, with Navneet Kaur passing the injected ball to Rutuja Pisal, who was standing near the post and simply deflected the ball past the Chinese goalkeeper, making it 2-2. China attacked with Ning Ma and Dan Wen as both players made two good runs in the Indian circle, but the Indian defence stood tall to thwart them. However, in line with India's inconsistency throughout the tournament, the fourth quarter was the opposite of the third one as China dominated and eventually found a winner. China attacked from the word go in the final quarter and earned the rewards in the 46th minute with another penalty corner, which India thwarted. The waves of Chinese attacks continued as they won two back-to-back PCs in the 49th minute, but the Indian defence proved to be strong again. The Indian defence was finally broken in the 53rd minute as Wenyu Xu scored from the penalty corner to make it 3-2 and deliver the final blow to the Indian team. The likes of Beauty Dung Dung, Navneet Kaur, Baljeet Kaur, and Deepika had their chances in the last five minutes but poor decision making meant that the Indian team will return from the European leg without a win, unlike the male counterparts, who won their final game and survived the relegation by finishing second last in the men's Pro League points table. Coach Harendra Singh will have a lot to ponder when he returns to India, with penalty corner defence, finishing abilities, and the indecisiveness in the opponent's box being some of the major points.

ABD Criticises India For Bumrah's Workload 'Mismanagement', Cites Steyn Example
Last Updated: AB de Villiers believes Jasprit Bumrah should have played all five Tests in the series against England, comparing his workload management to Dale Steyn. Jasprit Bumrah is the best bowler in the world and arguably Inida's best cricketer for India across all formats. Managing his workload, though, has proved to be a significant challenge for the Indian men's cricket team. As India look to come back in the five-Test series against England for the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy, former South African captain and Indian Premier League (IPL) legend AB de Villiers feels that Bumrah should have been prioritised to play in all five matches, rather than the pre-planned three set by the Indian management. 'He is probably the top bowler in the world in all formats right now. So, it's very difficult to decide a way to rest him," De Villiers was quoted as saying on his YouTube channel. 'In my opinion, Test cricket is the ultimate form of the game. This Test series, in particular, would've been the one to get him ready for all five matches." The 40-year-old, who faced Bumrah towards the end of his career, compared the situation to how South Africa managed Dale Steyn, a bowler with a similar pedigree and injury history. 'That's what we used to do with Dale. Rest him in less important T20 and ODI series and prepare him for the big Test series against Australia, England, and India away from home… New Zealand to some extent, depending on the rankings at that time," he explained. Is Bumrah's Workload Being Mismanaged? Jasprit Bumrah 's potential absence in India's second Test against England at Edgbaston has sparked debate, especially given the importance of the series and the conditions that favour his skills. While De Villiers was uncertain about the nature of the decision, he did not rule out the possibility that it stemmed from medical advice. 'So, I don't know if it was mismanagement or if it was because he recently returned from injury and saw the IPL as a warmup phase," he said. 'Maybe, he consulted a surgeon who advised him against playing all five Test matches. You have to respect that, and ultimately, it's up to Team India to manage him well," he added. De Villiers added a sharp observation, saying: 'It doesn't get bigger than this, except perhaps the WTC final." First Published:
