In a major blow to India, star batsman and opener Rohit Sharma has been ruled out of the upcoming ODI and Test match series against New Zealand following a calf injury he received during the fifth T20I.

A well-played century by Rohit Sharma and equally supported game from Virat Kohli (89) helped India in fetching a clinical win over Australia in the third and final ODI game of the series, handing India 2-1 win in the series.

West Indies assistant coach Roddy Estwick has advised that the young players must learn from Indian skipper Virat Kohli about his dedication and hard work.

Rohit Sharma has observed Kieron Pollard from a very close distance and believes that he is the reason behind transformed Caribbean side. Rohit Sharma, who has played with Pollard for years in the Mumbai Indians side, tagged him to be “smart thinker of the game”.

Miandad had taken 64 innings to score 1930 runs, Virat Kohli surpassed him in just 34 innings. This milestone stood for almost 26 years as Miandad played his last ODI against West Indies in 1993.

A well-placed ton by Usman Khawaja and incisive bowling helped Australia in beating India by a comfortable 35-run difference in the fifth One Day International at the Kotla stadium in Delhi.

India had made a brilliant start in the series with two consecutive wins, including one in a low scoring game; since then Australia had been playing a responsible cricket and had not faced defeat, including one of their biggest chase against India.

Former Indian skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni was left speechless after a little kid refused his offer to lift him up. He was in Mumbai for a charity football match.

Taking a dig at New Zealand cricket team, the Eastern District Police Department issued a public warning against Team India via its official Facebook page. However, it was more on a funnier side than a serious one.

Indian opener Rohit Sharma is just a century away from creating history in Australia. In the upcoming ODI series, Rohit Sharma has great chance of scripting a unique ODI record where he can leave behind legendary Viv Richards. Both the players have scored three centuries against Australia in Australia.
