HISTORY! South Africa batter smashes first double century in Youth ODI cricket
Jorich Van Schalkwyk smashed a double century for South Africa U19. (Image: X) South African teenage cricket sensation Jorich Van Schalkwyk made history in Zimbabwe by scoring 215 runs in a Tri-Nation U19s tournament match against the hosts on July 25, setting a new record for the highest individual score in men's Youth ODIs. The 18-year-old's remarkable innings surpassed the previous record of 191 runs held by Sri Lanka's Hasitha Boyagoda since 2018. Van Schalkwyk opened the batting for South Africa U19s and immediately showed his intent by hitting three boundaries in the second over. Despite losing two early wickets within the first 10 overs, he maintained an aggressive approach, reaching his half-century in 48 balls. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel.

This achievement marked his second consecutive hundred in the tournament, following his unbeaten 164 against Bangladesh earlier in the week. In the match against Bangladesh, which was played on Tuesday, Van Schalkwyk's innings was cut short due to bad light with 32 balls remaining.

New Zealand spinner Ish Sodhi relishing T20 PowerPlay challenge
Ish Sodhi is enjoying the challenge of bowling in the PowerPlay overs in Twenty20 Internationals, the New Zealand spinner said after registering a career-best 4-12 against Zimbabwe in the ongoing Tri-Series in Harare on Thursday. The 32-year-old became the second New Zealand bowler, after Tim Southee (164), to claim 150 wickets in T20 Internationals as his team registered its fourth consecutive win in a tournament also involving South Africa. 'Well, that's pretty nice to be able to achieve that milestone and contribute to the win,' player-of-the-match Sodhi said afterwards. Sodhi claimed three of his four wickets in the first six PowerPlay overs when batters tend to take advantage of fewer fielders outside the circle and bat aggressively. 'It's quite a new role for me,' the leg-spinner said. 'I had not bowled in the PowerPlays a lot. This is a really strong New Zealand side nowadays, so to try and get into the side, you have to learn to be able to bowl in the PowerPlay. Getting some wickets is quite pleasing. It shows, I suppose, that I can do it and it's something I want to keep doing.' New Zealand will take on South Africa in Saturday's final in Harare. It will stay back for a two-Test series against host Zimbabwe. Batting all-rounder Michael Bracewell will replace the injured Glenn Phillips for the first Test in Bulawayo, New Zealand Cricket said on Friday. 'Glenn's injury provided a gap in the Test squad and Michael is the closest like-for-like replacement,' said New Zealand coach Rob Walter. 'Michael's experience and skillset will be a great asset and allows us to keep the same balance of the team. Given he's here with the T20 squad and his availability aligned for the first Test, we're using the opportunity to include him in the squad.' Phillips was ruled out of the Zimbabwe tour with a groin injury suffered in the Major League Cricket in the United States earlier this month.
