Glenn Maxwell Announces Retirement from ODI Cricket After 13-Year Career
Glenn Maxwell, one of Australia's most exciting ODI players, has announced his retirement from one-day international cricket after a 13-year career. He played his first ODI for Australia in 2012 and scored nearly 4,000 runs in 149 matches. At 36 years old, Maxwell is still recovering from a serious left leg injury he suffered in 2022. During the Champions Trophy in February, he told the Australian team selector George Bailey that he didn't expect to continue playing until the 2027 World Cup. Maxwell said on the Final Word podcast that he realized it was time for younger players to take over and make the spot their own for the future. He had already decided to retire from ODIs before he injured his finger and missed this year's Indian Premier League. Maxwell joins other Australian stars like Marcus Stoinis, Steve Smith, and David Warner who have recently retired from one-day cricket. Australia will now need to find new players to help defend their World Cup title in two years. Maxwell will keep playing T20 cricket for Australia and has not retired from first-class cricket. He explained that the physical demands of the 50-over game became too much for his body, especially in tough playing conditions. During the Champions Trophy, playing on a hard outfield and a wet, slippery field made it difficult for him to recover between games. He said surviving 50 overs was exhausting and affected his batting performance. Feeling that his body was struggling and he wasn't at his best, Maxwell decided it was time to step away from one-day internationals.

Preity Zinta jumps with joy, makes Punjab Kings' captain Shreyas Iyer finally smile as PBKS beat Mumbai Indians to qualify for IPL finals
Preity Zinta is a happy team owner as Punjab Kings beat Mumbai Indians by five wickets on Sunday to qualify for the finals of the Indian Premier League. The actor-entrepreneur was seen jumping with joy and celebrating the victory with Punjab Kings captain Shreyas Iyer on the cricket field. In a video gone viral on social media, Preity can be seen clapping and jumping with joy in the cricket stands as Punjab Kings clinched victory against Mumbai Indians in the second qualifier. She looked radiant in an-all white salwar suit and dupatta. In what's being called 'picture of the day,' Preity is seen smiling and posing with Shreyas Iyer on the field after the match. Finally 𝐕𝐢𝐫-𝐙𝐚𝐫𝐚 in Finals!!❤️💀 Congratulations to all RCB and Punjab fans for the final. 🔥 I am very happy for Preity Zinta.#PBKSvsMI #PreityZinta — 𝗦𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗺 (@Sareem_CreateX) June 1, 2025 During the match, Preity was also seen smiling and clapping from the stands as Punjab Kings player Yuzvendra Chahal took the wicket of Suryakumar Yadav. Chahal's rumoured girlfriend, radio jockey-turned-actor RJ Mahvash, was also seen in the stands. She jumped with joy as well, as Chahal took the wicket. RJ Mahvash and Preity Zinta after Yuzvendra chahal took surya Kumar's wicket 🥳 — Taukir (@Iamhiiiiiim) June 1, 2025 Last week, Mahvash shared a picture, posing with Preity from the Rambagh Palace in Jaipur, where the two were present to cheer Punjab Kings as the team competed with Rajasthan Royals at the Sawai Man Singh Stadium, in which Punjab Kings beat Rajasthan Royals by 10 runs. Thanks to the win on Sunday, Preity's team Punjab Kings will now square off against Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the IPL finals at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Tuesday. Last week, Punjab Kings lost to Royal Challengers Bangalore in the first qualifier, which paved the way for the latter to secure a spot in the finals. Pictures of Kohli's wife and actor Anushka Sharma celebrating and Preity Zinta looking sad flooded social media. Given the two teams will go up against each other in the finals again, similar visuals are expected to surface all over social media again. Earlier in the tournament, Preity and Kohli were seen showing each other the pictures of their kids on each other's phones. Preity, married to American financial analyst Gene Goodenough, has two twins — Jai and Gia — born via surrogacy in 2021. Meanwhile, Kohli and Anushka, who married in 2017, have two kids too — daughter Vamika and son Akaay. They keep shuttling between India and London. Anushka's last film as an actor was Aanand L Rai's 2018 romantic drama Zero opposite Shah Rukh Khan.

She'll soon reunite with Deol in Rajkumar Santoshi's period drama Lahore 1947, which is backed by Aamir Khan Productions. Also starring Shabana Azmi, Ali Fazal, and Karan Deol, Lahore 1947 is expected to release in cinemas soon.

Kohlis aggression, Hardiks resilience inspiring young TT player Ankur
Ahmedabad, Jun 2 (PTI) An ardent fan of Virat Kohli and Hardik Pandya, rising Indian paddler Ankur Bhattacharjee once aspired to be a cricketer before shifting to table tennis, but his love for cricket still remains. The 18-year-old is big admirer of Kohli's aggression and Hardik's mental strength and wants to imbibe those qualities into his game. "There is a lot of aggression in my game, so I admire Virat Kohli sir's aggressive attitude. I also love Hardik Pandya sir's mental strength. I follow both a lot and try to bring their qualities into my game," Ankur told PTI. Despite turning pro in table tennis, his love for cricket still remains and he doesn't miss a single India match. But after taking up table tennis, his only goal was to fulfil his parents' dream. "I love cricket a lot and try not to miss a single India match. I wanted to be a cricketer but my father and mother both were table tennis players and they are my personal coach too," Ankur said. "My mother pressured me by saying everyone plays cricket, you play table tennis. Then I started playing and I loved it. "Both my father (Angshuman Bhattacharjee) and mother (Kuntali Bhattacharjee) were national level players." Ankur is currently participating in the sixth season of the Ultimate Table Tennis League for Kolkata Thunder Blades. "This year I feel our team is stronger than last year. My form is also better than last year, so I feel we can win the title this year," he said. "UTT is a big platform for youngsters, I feel more such tournaments like UTT should happen. Like last year before playing UTT my India ranking was out of 10, but now I am India ranking 2 in singles. "I have just returned after playing World Championships and had a decent performance there." Ankur had already stamped his authority at the junior level, having won the under-19 boys singles title at the Youth National Championships for three years in a row. He has also won three consecutive bronze medals at the Junior Asian Championships. "I played 6 tournaments at youth level this year and won all of them. This is my first year at senior level and till now I feel I am performing well but I need to take this to the next level," he said. Just like any other athlete, Ankur's target is to finish on the podium in big international tournaments in future. "Just came back after playing World Championships, so the next target is to win a medal for India at Asian Championships in Bhubaneswar this year," he said. "Just like everyone, my future goal is to win Olympic gold but it is easier said than done. I am not thinking about it now. I am taking one step at a time." Besides being a table tennis player, Ankur also writes poems in Bengali, a quality which he got from his grandfather. "I used to write a lot earlier and even written for some books as well. I got inspired to write from my grandfather who was a poet. Now I don't get much time to write but do try as and when I can," he said.
