IND vs ZIM in July

BCCI has confirmed India’s tour of Zimbabwe. The Men in Blue will play 3 T20I matches in Harare, just 4 days after the England tour ends on July 19. The last time India had travelled to Zimbabwe was in 2024. Next year, the Chevrons will tour India after 25 years to play 3 ODIs.

PSL > IPL

Adam Zampa has revealed why he didn’t register for the IPL 2026 auction and instead put his name in for the PSL 2026 auction. The Australian leg spinner stated that he doesn’t feel the IPL franchises pays him enough, especially factoring in the length of the tournament.

KKR need Green

KKR head coach Abhishek Nayar has addressed claims made by Ajinkya Rahane. The KKR captain had said that Cameron Green’s inability to bowl disturbs the team’s balance. Nayar added that they had picked Green as an all-rounder and made plans accordingly, which is why it’s frustrating that he can’t bowl. Furthermore, Nayar stated that he views Green as their replacement for Andre Russell.
