"Concerning Sign": Gambhir And Co. Sent Clear Message After WI Notch 405/7

The fans at Barsapara Stadium witnessed one of the most stunning ODI batting displays from the West Indies as, for the first time ever, three Caribbean batters scored centuries in a single ODI innings. From an explosive, no-holds-barred assault by opener John Campbell to a measured, quintessential ODI-style century from skipper Shai Hope and a classy yet merciless ton from rising star Amir Jangoo , the Indian fans experienced Caribbean cricket in different flavours and tempos. As the two-time champions eye a spot in the 2027 ODI World Cup through the qualifiers, they showcased a level of ruthlessness that fans had rarely seen from them in recent years. India conceded 405/7 in 50 overs, the third-highest total ever conceded by the side in ODIs.

Marnus Labuschagne Responds As Fans Asks For "One Word About Rohit Sharma"

Australian cricket star Marnus Labuschagne remains one of the finest Test batters in the world at the moment. During the recent tour of India, Labuschagne had the opportunity to play against some of the finest Indian batters of the generation -- Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. Having returned home, Labuschagne got into a fun Q&A session with fans on Twitter. A fan ended up asking him to say 'one word on Rohit Sharma'. The Australian cricketer gave an excellent response.

"One word about Rohit Sharma?," asked the fan. In response, Labuschagne wrote: "more than 1 word, but watching him bat is easy on the eye - smooth bat swing."

Another fan asked the Australian batter to pick one from the 'Fab 4' as his batting partner, but it can't be Steve Smith.

"If you get a chance to bat with one of the fab 4 excluding smudge, who would that be?" asked the fan. Labuschagne said: "has to be @imVkohli, we'd run heaps of 2s."

Australia's tour of India produced some mesmerising results. While India won the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2-1, the tourists came out victorious in the ODI series, reversing the scoreline.

For the entire series, the pitch remained the central talking-point. In fact, the third Test pitch was given 'poor' rating by the ICC but was later changed to 'below-average'.

The ICC also gave the Narendra Modi Stadium pitch in Ahmedabad, the venue for the fourth Test, an 'average' rating for the slow batting deck where both teams had one completed innings each.

The match had ended in a tame draw, with India winning the series 2-1.

At Indore, Australia had defeated India by nine wickets within three days of the Border-Gavaskar Test to secure a World Test Championship final berth.

The ICC appeal panel reviewed the earlier decision of the match referee Chris Broad and found that there was not enough excessive variable bounce to warrant the 'poor' rating.

The pitch, which had initially received three demerit points, will now get only one demerit point.

Harvard Astrophysicist Says He Found Alien Tech From A Meteor: Report

A Harvard University astrophysicist claims to have made a significant advancement in the quest for extraterrestrial life. Professor Avi Loeb thinks he may have discovered pieces of alien technology from a meteor that crashed in 2014 off the coast of Papua New Guinea. According to CBS News , Loeb and his team just brought the materials back to Harvard for analysis. The U.S. Space Command can confirm with almost near certainty, 99.999%, that it came from another solar system. The government gave Loeb a 10-kilometre (6.2-mile) radius of where it may have landed. "That is where the fireball took place, and the government detected it from the Department of Defence. It's a very big area, the size of Boston, so we wanted to pin it down," said Loeb. "We figured the distance of the fireball based on the time delay between the arrival of the blast wave, the boom of the explosion, and the light that arrived quickly." According to USA Today, the fragments the team uncov...
