Matt Renshaw Stars In Bangladesh T20 As Australia Seal The Series
Matt Renshaw's all-round show with an unbeaten 89 and a wicket helped Australia with a seven-run win over Bangladesh in the second T20 in Chattogram on Friday to seal the three-match series. Renshaw's career-best score after Australia won the toss and decided to bat first helped the visitors reach 196-5, which they defended in a last-over thriller, with Bangladesh only managing 189-6. Chasing 197, Bangladesh made a blistering start through openers Tanzid Hasan and Saif Hassan, who put on 48 in just 3.4 overs to raise hopes of a series-levelling win. Tanzid smashed 30 off 15 balls with four fours and a six before Renshaw made the breakthrough, taking a sharp return catch off his own bowling. Soumya Sarkar kept up the momentum as Bangladesh raced to 72-1 at the end of the powerplay, but Adam Zampa removed him for 15 to slow the charge. Parvez Hossain Emon then counter-attacked, hammering 36 off 22 balls and combining with Saif in a 53-run stand to keep Bangladesh on course. But Australia came back in the game when Aaron Hardie dismissed Emon, with captain Mitchell Marsh taking a running catch at cover, before Joel Davies removed the set Saif for 42. Bangladesh needed 63 runs off the last 40 balls, with captain Towhid Hridoy holding the line. Hridoy fought till the end with a brisk 35 off 22 balls, sharing a 36-run stand with Abdul Gaffar Saqlain, but was caught on the boundary with Bangladesh needing eight off the last ball of the chase. We were moving according to plan, Emon said after the game. I felt the biggest damage was my wicket and Saif's wicket falling back-to-back, he added. We fell a bit behind there, otherwise it was looking very good. Australia's Hardie took two wickets, while Nathan Ellis, Renshaw, Zampa and Davies claimed one each. Earlier, Renshaw's innings lifted the visitors after they stumbled to 44-3 inside the powerplay. Josh Inglis and Marsh gave the tourists a brisk start before Nasum Ahmed dismissed Inglis for 11 and Nahid Rana removed the in-form Cooper Connolly for one. Mustafizur Rahman then sent back Marsh for 20 on the final ball of the powerplay. Renshaw rebuilt with Tim David, whose 45 off 26 balls came in a match-defining 97-run stand. It's nice to get a couple of wins and wrap up the series after two games, Renshaw said after the game. The T20 series win comes after Australia's shock 2-1 loss in the preceding one-day international series earlier this month. Yeah, a little bit, Renshaw said when asked if the result felt like settling scores. Also Read: Live Cricket Score The one-day series, it was a few really good games, he added. It felt like every game we were just a little bit shy.

Womens T20 WC: Asian Rivals Pakistan And Bangladesh Aim To Revive Their Campaigns (Preview)
T20 World Cup: Pakistan and Bangladesh will battle to revive their respective 2026 Women's T20 World Cup campaigns when they face off in a vital Group A clash at The Rose Bowl on Saturday. Pakistan currently languish at the fifth spot on the points table following consecutive losses, while Bangladesh are at fourth place with one win from two matches. Pakistan, though, can take heart from some aspects of their performance against South Africa in Birmingham. Captain Fatima Sana orchestrated a brilliant recovery after an early wobble, striking an unbeaten 55 and stitching together a record ninth-wicket partnership of 71 runs alongside Tuba Hassan to post 126. If Pakistan are to get their first win of the World Cup, they will need all of their batters to click well and take charge of run-scoring. Fatima then claimed 3-16, and became the first captain in tournaments history to score a half-century and take three scalps in a single match, though the Proteas ultimately scraped home by two wickets. Bangladesh, meanwhile, began by securing a comfortable six-wicket win over Netherlands, before suffering a heavy nine-wicket defeat against tournament heavyweights and six-time winners Australia. Young Juairiya Ferdous leads the run-scoring charts for Bangladesh, while Pakistan will again lean heavily on the all-round capabilities of Fatima and the wrist-spin of Tuba on a balanced Southampton pitch.

Women's T20 WC: 'Points In The Bag Are All That Matters,' Says Wolvaardt After SA Win Over Pakistan
T20 World Cup: South Africa captain Laura Wolvaardt admitted her side did not produce their cleanest performance but was satisfied to begin their campaign with a victory after edging Pakistan by two wickets in a low-scoring contest of the Womens T20 World Cup at Edgbaston. Chasing 127, South Africa survived a dramatic late wobble despite being in a commanding position, eventually sealing the win after Pakistan captain Fatima Sana's all-round brilliance threatened to script an unlikely comeback. While Wolvaardt praised her bowlers for setting up the game and lauded Annerie Dercksen's attacking half-century, she also acknowledged areas for improvement ahead of South Africa's next fixture against India. Points in the bag are all that matters today. It was a little scratchy and not the way we would have liked, but there are still lots of positives to take out of it. We'll take those and move on, Wolvaardt said after the game. South Africa's victory was built on an explosive start with the ball, led by Marizanne Kapp, who dismissed Muneeba Ali with the first ball of the match before reducing Pakistan to 29/5 inside the powerplay. Shabnim Ismail's new-ball spell complemented Kapp's efforts as Pakistan's top order crumbled. It was a lovely way to start the game. Setting the tone with a wicket on the first ball was important. I think Kappie was excellent, and I thought Shabnim was great today as well. It was nice to have them bowling in tandem up front and setting up the innings like that, she added. Despite Pakistan slumping further to 50/8, Fatima Sana refused to surrender. Her unbeaten 55 from 38 balls, alongside Tuba Hassan, lifted Pakistan to 126/9 through a remarkable 71-run ninth-wicket partnership. Wolvaardt revealed South Africa's strategy was centred on limiting Sana's influence once the collapse had unfolded We knew Fatima was still there, so we tried our best to keep her off strike for as long as we could and bowl as much as possible to the other batters. I think we did well to keep her as quiet as we did. She's played innings against us before where she's hurt us a lot more than she did today. We probably could have executed a little better at the death, but she batted really well. At the end of the day, we were happy chasing 120, Wolvaardt stated. South Africa appeared to be cruising in the chase after Annerie Dercksen launched a blistering counterattack, racing to a 32-ball half-century and putting the required run rate firmly under control. However, Pakistan clawed their way back with regular wickets before Nadine de Klerk guided the visitors home in a tense finish. Wolvaardt singled out Dercksen's fearless approach as the defining feature of South Africa's chase, particularly on a sluggish surface where cautious batting could easily have allowed Pakistan back into the contest. The power she has is incredible. She's able to hit even really slow bowlers for big sixes, so it's awesome to have that in our lineup. The intent she came out with was exactly what this chase needed. It's easy to go into your shell when you're only chasing 120 and the wicket is slow and turning. I thought she played excellently and took a lot of pressure off the rest of the batting lineup, she noted. Wolvaardt singled out Dercksen's fearless approach as the defining feature of South Africa's chase, particularly on a sluggish surface where cautious batting could easily have allowed Pakistan back into the contest. Also Read: Live Cricket Score It was quite slow today and we faced a lot of spin. I imagine Manchester will be pretty similar, and India have some quality spinners as well. It's probably back to the drawing board to see how we can play those situations better. We can take some learnings from Annerie's innings and Nadine's innings. They played it really well, and we'll take it from there, she concluded. Article Source: IANS
'Im Enjoying It, But We Need To Win Games': Pakistan Skipper Sana On Historic T20 WC Double
After Fatima Sana: After Fatima Sana made history as the first captain to score a half-century and claim a three-wicket haul in a Womens T20 World Cup match, the Pakistan skipper stated she is embracing the milestone but remains focused on the bigger picture. Sanabattled hard with an unbeaten 38-ball 55 and a 3-16, but her teammates couldn't quite complement her efforts as Pakistan fell to a two-wicket defeat against South Africa in Birmingham. Reflecting on her landmark performance and her leadership responsibilities, Sana said after the match, I'm enjoying the role, but we still need to win games. I'm enjoying it, but there's still a long way to go. Despite her brilliant individual effort, Pakistan fell short in their pursuit, a result the skipper attributed to a failure in closing out the game. I think we just couldn't finish the game. The fight was there and the effort was there, but we couldn't finish it, she lamented. A major highlight of the Pakistan innings was Sana's resilient 71-run partnership with Tuba Hassan, the highest ninth-wicket stand in Women's T20 World Cups. Against all odds, Pakistan not only batted out their quota of overs but also put up a fighting total. Sana struck back-to-back sixes off Nadine De Klerk in the final over to bring up her fifty and closed the innings by stepping out against the pacer and slashing it behind point for a four, mustering 19 runs off the last over. Explaining the strategy during their time at the crease, Sana noted that the duo focused on resilience and execution. We just tried to take the game deep because we know we have the capability, and Tuba has the capability as well. We tried to take it deep and execute our plans, she said.

Womens T20 WC: When And Where To Watch SA Vs PAK, Know All Details
T20 World Cup: Pakistan and South Africa meet at Edgbaston in Birmingham on Wednesday with both sides desperate to revive their T20 World Cup campaigns after heavy defeats in their opening Group A fixtures. Having suffered convincing losses to India and Australia respectively, the contest has quickly turned into a must-win encounter for two teams already under pressure. Pakistan were thoroughly outplayed by India, folding for 106 after conceding 170. Muneeba Ali's 41 was the lone bright spot as the batting struggled against spin, particularly Deepti Sharma, whose 5/10 dismantled the middle order. South Africa endured a similarly forgettable outing, losing by 64 runs to Australia despite Laura Wolvaardt's 44 and Nadine de Klerk's 25. Only Marizanne Kapp managed to join them in double figures as the batting failed to counter Australia's four-pronged spin attack, which shared eight wickets. Both teams now face another stern examination against quality slow bowling. Pakistan are expected to rely on Sadia Iqbal and Nashra Sandhu, while South Africa will once again turn to Nonkululeko Mlaba. The battle against spin could once again define the outcome. Recent form offers little encouragement for Pakistan, who have won just seven of their last 20 T20Is, with four victories coming against Ireland and Zimbabwe. South Africa, meanwhile, entered the tournament after reaching the finals of the last three ICC global events, making their opening defeat all the more surprising. With the group beginning to take shape after India and Australia made emphatic starts, another defeat would leave either Pakistan or South Africa with an uphill task of reaching the knockout stage.

Womens T20 WC: Redemption On The Line As Pakistan, South Africa Seek First Points (Preview)
T20 WC: Edgbaston hosts a high-stakes Group A fixture on Wednesday as Pakistan take on South Africa, with both sides looking to recover from bruising opening-round defeats and keep their semifinal hopes alive. Neither side found answers in their tournament opener. Pakistan were swept aside by India, while South Africa were comprehensively beaten by Australia, leaving both searching for an immediate response in Birmingham. Batting remains the biggest concern. Pakistan managed only 106 in reply to India's imposing total, with Muneeba Ali's 41 accounting for much of the resistance. South Africa fared little better, posting 107, as Laura Wolvaardt's 44 and Nadine de Klerk's 25 proved insufficient against relentless Australian pressure. A recurring theme in both defeats was the inability to handle spin. Deepti Sharma's career-best five-wicket haul exposed Pakistan's fragile middle order, while Australia's quartet of Sophie Molineux, Alana King, Georgia Wareham and Ashleigh Gardner overwhelmed South Africa. Wednesday's contest is unlikely to offer any respite. Pakistan possess two of the world's leading spinners in Sadia Iqbal and Nashra Sandhu, while South Africa's attack is spearheaded by Nonkululeko Mlaba. How each batting lineup negotiates the middle overs could determine the result. Pakistan also arrive with modest recent numbers, having won only seven of their last 20 T20Is. South Africa, by contrast, came into the World Cup as finalists from the previous three ICC global tournaments, making their opening setback an unexpected one. With India and Australia already establishing early control of the group, this fixture represents an opportunity to reset the campaign or risk falling dangerously behind.

Apni Party Vows to Raise Farmers Issues, Seeks Measures to Revive Agriculture
Jammu, June 14: Apni Party President Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari on Sunday said his party remains committed to safeguarding the rights, interests and livelihoods of farmers in Jammu and Kashmir and would work to ensure that their concerns are addressed effectively. Addressing a workers convention at Kotli Shah Doula in R.S. Pura, Bukhari said agriculture remains central to Jammu and Kashmirs economy and called for policy measures to protect agricultural land and support farming communities. Expressing concern over eviction drives and issues related to agricultural land, Bukhari said farmers in several areas have been facing distress and alleged that in some cases compensation has either not been paid or has not reflected prevailing market values. He also referred to cases in R.S. Pura where, according to him, cultivators with possessory rights over land were yet to receive compensation after dispossession. We will continue to stand with the farming community and pursue their issues at every level, he said, adding that steps should be taken to safeguard agricultural land and strengthen farmers welfare. Bukhari said Jammu and Kashmir lacks a strong industrial base and that land continues to remain an important source of livelihood and economic security for local communities. He also urged effective implementation of legal safeguards concerning land and called for greater attention to rural and agricultural concerns. Commenting on industrial development, Bukhari questioned the outcomes of the industrial package announced for Jammu and Kashmir and alleged that the expected employment benefits had not adequately reached local youth. The Apni Party chief also sought district status for R.S. Pura, citing its location and administrative requirements. During the convention, Apni Party Senior Vice President Ghulam Hassan Mir stressed the need to examine challenges facing the agriculture sector and proposed constituting a commission to study the declining interest in farming. Mir said changing livelihood preferences and difficulties faced by cultivators required policy intervention and renewed focus on agriculture. He also demanded implementation of a Minimum Support Price (MSP) mechanism for farmers, saying it would help ensure stable returns and encourage agricultural activity. Party Provincial President Manjit Singh also addressed the gathering and raised concerns over unemployment, calling for stronger measures to create job opportunities for youth in Jammu and Kashmir. The event was attended by party workers and farmers from Jammu district and nearby areas and was organised by the partys Kisan Wing.
