WTC Final: Matthew Hayden criticises South Africa's approach, says they need to show more intent on Day 2 against Australia
Former Australian cricketer commented on day one of the ICC World Test Championship final at Lord's between Australia and South Africa, emphasizing that the Proteas need to show more batting intent on day two. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Australia finished at 212 all out while South Africa struggled at 43-4 at stumps, with claiming five wickets for the Proteas and striking twice for Australia. scored 66 runs and Beau Webster contributed 72 runs for Australia, being the only significant batting performances of the day. Rabada finished with figures of 5/51, while Marco Jansen took 3/49. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! South Africa had won the first session, reducing Australia to 67/4, but lost momentum as the day progressed. Australia bounced back strongly in the final session, taking nine wickets across both innings. Bold prediction! Astrologer Greenstone Lobo picks winner of Australia vs South Africa WTC Final 2025 "I am not entirely convinced it was Australia's day. South Africa won the first session, and Australia's comeback in the final session--nine wickets in all--was surprising. The conditions were odd: cloudy for half the day and sunny for the other half. Batting should have been easier, but it wasn't. I would say maybe 80 per cent in Australia's favour, largely because of South Africa's lack of intent," Hayden said. Hayden criticised South African captain Bavuma's approach, noting his slow start in opening his account on the 31st ball. "And that's dangerous when facing three world-class fast bowlers in conditions that suit them. They need to come out with more intent on Day 2. Any signs of aggression--even those few boundaries late in the day--will help. But if they do not, Australia will come into Day 2 as firm favourites," he added. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Quiz: Former Indian all-rounder Sanjay Bangar believed the day belonged to Australia. "With the amount of seam movement on this pitch, the scoreboard does not reflect a par score. Australia is in a strong position," Bangar stated. Bangar also commented on South Africa's approach, suggesting they need positive intent and proper footwork. "Steve Smith was exceptional--when conditions were tough, he pushed the pressure back on the bowlers. Also, someone like Ngidi had an off day and leaked runs. Australia's bowlers didn't offer any width. If South Africa want to score square, they must first find a way to create that width--and that comes with intent," he said. Australia's innings saw a crucial 79-run partnership between Smith and Webster, followed by Webster's 46-run stand with Alex Carey, who scored 23 runs. South Africa's response was poor, with none of their batsmen reaching 20 runs. Mitchell Starc claimed two wickets, while Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood took one each. At stumps, South Africa trailed by 169 runs with six wickets remaining in their first innings.

Pakistan to suffer again, PSL 2026 to clash with IPL 2026 due to...
In these collection of pictures, we find out the reason why PSL 2026 season will once again clash with the IPL 2026 season next year. IPL 2025 season clashed with PSL 2025 this year since the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 was scheduled in Pakistan's T20 league window. Pakistan cricket board struggled to bring foreign players for PSL 2025 since most of top players were taking part in IPL 2025. Some players quit PSL 2025 mid-way to take part in IPL 2025. Image credit: X (Formerly Twitter) PSL 2026 is also scheduled to clash with IPL 2026 next year since the ICC have scheduled T20 World Cup 2026 in India in February-March next year. Image credit: X (Formerly Twitter) PSL 2026 will have to be held in April-May window because PCB have already given NOC to players to take part in BBL 2025-26 in December-January. ICC T20 World Cup 2026 is scheduled to take place in India and will probably be held with a 'hybrid' model with Pakistan's matches taking place outside India. Image credit: X (Formerly Twitter) Shaheen Afridi's Lahore Qalandars became PSL 2025 champions last month with a win over Quetta Gladiators. "There is a window available to the Pakistan board in December and first half of January but it has already given NOCs to Pakistani players to play in the Big Bash in Australia in this period and has also planned some domestic activities. So the discussion now with the franchise owners is to prepare for the PSL to be held in April-May just like this year," a PCB source was quoted as saying by PTI.

US Open: 'Probably the toughest golf course', says DeChambeau as Scheffler chases back-to-back majors
Defending champion Bryson DeChambeau described Oakmont as 'probably the toughest golf course' he's ever played, as the US Open tees off on Thursday with world number one Scottie Scheffler aiming for back-to-back major titles. Known for its unforgiving layout, treacherous greens and tricky bunkers, Oakmont is expected to test every aspect of a player's game. "This is probably the toughest golf course in the world right now," DeChambeau, seeking his third US Open victory in six years, said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Free P2,000 GCash eGift UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo Meanwhile, Scheffler arrives in top form after winning the PGA Championship and seeks to cement his dominance with another major triumph, making this one of the most anticipated tournaments of the year. Scheffler is trying to become the first man to win consecutive majors since Jordan Spieth in 2015 by taking his first US Open title. Live Events Scheffler highlighted the challenge posed by Oakmont's tall rough, remarking, 'What's so special about this place is that almost every time you miss the fairway, it's extremely tough to get the ball onto the green.' Scheffler, who claimed Olympic gold in Paris among his nine victories last year, enters the US Open in red-hot form, having won three of his last four starts. Scheffler begins at 1:25 p.m. when he starts off the first tee alongside fourth-ranked American compatriot Collin Morikawa and Norway's Viktor Hovland . Five-time major champion and world number two Rory McIlroy , who has shown signs of improvement after recent struggles with his driver, will tee off from the 10th at 7:40 a.m. alongside England's Justin Rose and Ireland's Shane Lowry. McIlroy, representing Northern Ireland, has a shot at making history by becoming just the seventh player to win both the Masters and the US Open in the same year. He would join an elite group that includes Tiger Woods, Jack Nicklaus, Jordan Spieth, Arnold Palmer, Craig Wood, and Ben Hogan — legendary names in the sport's rich history.
