Jacob Bethell is set to open the batting in England's ODI series against India, in a move that could foreshadow a future elevation in Test cricket. They have included two uncapped players in their squad for the three-match series later this month in James Coles and Josh Tongue, with Gus Atkinson and Saqib Mahmood both recalled.

Ben Duckett has had four different opening partners in 50-over cricket since the start of last year. Phil Salt was dropped after the Champions Trophy, and his replacement Jamie Smith was discarded after averaging 26.11 in nine innings. In their most recent series against Sri Lanka in January, Zak Crawley made 6 in his only innings, and Rehan Ahmed was used as a pinch-hitter.

England ODI squad: Rehan Ahmed, Jofra Archer, Gus Atkinson, Tom Banton, Jacob Bethell, Harry Brook (captain), Jos Buttler, James Coles, Sam Curran, Liam Dawson, Ben Duckett, Will Jacks, Saqib Mahmood, Adil Rashid, Joe Root, Josh Tongue.

After many days, Pakistan Women would have another chance to play some games. They played the World Cup and performed very badly there, losing every game and winning only one match by chance otherwise, they were also about to lose that game. However, if we talk about the series so Pakistan to face Sri Lanka women for multiple games. I hope they will approach the match in a bit different way not like they approach the World Cup games. At the same time, we now have different format one-day games, not T20, so let's see how they play.

The overall performance of Pak W cricket team performance is very bad because they won 4 matches out of 5 matches and 1 match lost by that team And Sri Lankan W Cricket team lose 2 matches out of 5 matches and 3 matches won by that team. The Head to head record of Pakistan W International cricket team is best because they won 2 out of 5 matches and 2 matches were ended with draw result And 1 match won by opponent team.  Pak W team have to play well in this series to regain their respect because they played very bad in the World Cup and they were disrespected after that and nobody want to talk about them due to their bad effort against India W and other teams of their group.

This is the second match of the Under 19 series between South Africa and England Under 19. In this match the first team South Africa batted and set a target of 227 runs. If you look at the batting of all their players, it seems that everyone worked together to achieve this target and all such players scored some score. There must have been one or two players who were out in the beginning, but their hard work did not pay off and the team playing against them, England, which is a very good team, controlled this match very well and how did their team get two players out? They completed this target in 38 and four balls and won this match. Ben Dawkins, the opening player, and Rocky Flintoff, who was playing in the last over, both performed very well, in which the first player scored 118 runs and the second  The player scored 79 runs and won the match.

England U19s vs South Africa U19s

It was a good win for England U19s, particularly as they were chasing 227 so easily. In first overs, total of South Africa U19s was indeed decent but they did not get enough middle order partnerships. Major difference here was that of England batting. Unbeaten partnership of the two Ben 118 and Rocky 79 ran the show. Moment they got in they created no chance for SA, and they ended up with 8 wickets and 68 balls to spare, which is proof of their control. Series is now level 1-1 and final ODI will be very important. Both teams have proved they have good moments, but it is regular good play which will win the game.

Zimbabwe have named a 15-man squad for the three-match ODI series against Bangladesh, with Richard Ngarava set to lead for the first time in the format ever since being named skipper by the end of last year. Opener Innocent Kaia has earned a recall after his maiden Test century in the recently concluded Test series.

Two batsman Jodi Grewcock and Grace Scrivens both batting was too much impressive and it's not wrong to say that they were the reason of setting mammoth target. On the loss of 5 wickets they build 298 runs for the Indian. When Indian team stepped up for their turn they were fumbled. Priya Punia was the only resistance player against the England bowlers. Especially bowler Sophia Slame gave tough time to the Indian batsman. She contributed with 4 major wickets. Indian morale were collapsed early . Removal of their important batsman indicating England outstanding bowling performance . England celebrated their triumph in 43 overs by smashing all Indian teams.

The International Cricket Council (ICC) is set to introduce a DRS certification system and explore the possibility of accrediting more vendors capable of supplying cost-effective Decision Review System (DRS) technology. The proposal is among the agenda items for the Annual Conference in Edinburgh, where the world governing body is also expected to grant Associate Membership to Mauritius. The Annual Conference is scheduled to be held from July 8 to 11.

Currently, UK-based Hawk-Eye Innovations and New Zealand-based Virtual Eye are the two approved providers of DRS technology for international cricket. However, their services are widely perceived to be expensive, making them unaffordable for many smaller boards and even for franchise and domestic leagues organised by state associations in India. On an average, DRS would cost approximately $ 10,000 (Rs 10 lakh) a day.

A couple of Indian technology firms are understood to be developing a more cost-effective DRS solution and are believed to have made presentations to the ICC. There could also be a few overseas companies in the fray. If the ICC Chief Executives' Committee (CEC) approves the proposed certification system, the ICC could open the door for new suppliers.

In first overs, total of South Africa U19s was indeed decent but they did not get enough middle order partnerships. Major difference here was that of England batting. Unbeaten partnership of the two Ben 118 and Rocky 79 ran the show.

Series is now level 1-1 and final ODI will be very important. Both teams have proved they have good moments, but it is regular good play which will win the game.

It is because of the hard work and dedication of their bowlers that sometimes even such a target is enough for defeat, but the England Under-19 batsmen saved themselves from carelessness and victory by playing hard. This target would have been stronger for them, if the South African Under-19 bowlers had been tough and tried to stop the runs, they could have lost, but the England Under-19 team victory with hard work and effort. The South African Under-19 team played poorly, firstly they did not make the target strong enough and were so weak in bowling that the England Under-19 batsmen achieve this victory in 38 overs. This has become an interesting match and it has become enough tough for both, but whoever plays with hard work and preparation, this will be a victory for him and he will also succeed with it.

The tour of South Africa under 19 against England under 19 is to be very interesting because in the first youth ODI match South Africa under 19 won because the target was low for Inland under 19 that is why South Africa under 19 won easily and in the second youth ODI match England under 19 took the lead because the target of South Africa under 19 was modest for England under 19 and they won easily.In this South Africa under 19 scored only 227 runs while batting first and before the stipulated overs the South African team surrendered in which Manny Lumsden dismissed 4 batsmen and weakened South Africa. England under 19 batting was also aggressive and the bowling was also tough. In the batting line up opening batsman Ben Dawkins started the second innings and managed to complete a century and remained at the end of the game.

In this 1st Youth ODI, Sri Lanka U-19 player Senuja Wekunagoda scored 91 runs in 111 balls, but the opposing team U-19 player Kushagra Ojha scored 92 runs in 67 balls. This proves that both the teams tried their best to win this match, but the target given to them by the Sri Lankan team was 320 runs, in which six of their players were dismissed. The Indian team also tried its best to win this match and their efforts were successful and they won this match by four wickets and four balls. If we look at it, the performance of the Sri Lankan players was also quite good, but they were not destined to win this match because the target they gave was quite good and the best target, in which Kavija Gamage scored 77 runs and there are other players like that, but the one who saw more teamwork was in the Indian team.

Opener Innocent Kaia has earned a recall after his maiden Test century in the recently concluded Test series.

From the sixth of July, finally we will be able to see the match between Bangladesh and Zimbabwe, it will be the first ODI match. The series of three one day matches and three T20 games. If we see the game by name, of course we think it will be easy for Bangladesh, but when we look in depth, since Zimbabwe has beaten Bangladesh in the one-off test game, they also have the potential to beat them once again in the ODI.

Is there anyone here who is familiar with this competition India A Women tour of England?

This was last match of competition and with this victory, India A Women won this India A Women tour of England competition. India A women squad was started this match first with batting inning and batters were managed to collect 281 scores off 50 overs inning. Priya Punia  and Tanisha Singh batters built strong batting partnership and both played superb batting inning and collected 61 and 58 scores respectively.

If we see the game by name, of course we think it will be easy for Bangladesh, but when we look in depth, since Zimbabwe has beaten Bangladesh in the one-off test game, they also have the potential to beat them once again in the ODI.

Tomorrow marks the start of the one-day series. Since Bangladesh lost the test match very badly, their key players are making a comeback in the team. Their key players and big names include Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Taskin Ahmed, and Nahid Rana. By the way, if we specifically talk about a single player, who is an extreme pacer, Nahid Rana. He can deliver a very awesome spell tomorrow. Zimbabwe are making their team ready for the 2027 World Cup and this ODI series will surely help them to make the greatest team.

I am actually very disappointed with the batting performance of Bangladesh team because they batted really badly against Zimbabwe team and because of that they lost the Test series.

I think if Bangladesh team's batsmen repeat the same performance here too then definitely there is a high possibility of Bangladesh team losing this series too. But even then since Bangladesh team's ODI format is somewhat stronger than Test format so here we can be a bit optimistic in favor of Bangladesh. There are not many problems with Bangladeshi bowlers but there are problems with Bangladeshi batsmen.

In this 1st Youth ODI, Sri Lanka U-19 player Senuja Wekunagoda scored 91 runs in 111 balls, but the opposing team U-19 player Kushagra Ojha scored 92 runs in 67 balls. This proves that both the teams tried their best to win this match, but the target given to them by the Sri Lankan team was 320 runs, in which six of their players were dismissed. The Indian team also tried its best to win this match and their efforts were successful and they won this match by four wickets and four balls. If we look at it, the performance of the Sri Lankan players was also quite good, but they were not destined to win this match because the target they gave was quite good and the best target, in which Kavija Gamage scored 77 runs and there are other players like that, but the one who saw more teamwork was in the Indian team.

In this match, the Sri Lanka U-19 batsmen made this target with a lot of hard work and determination and in this they had to protect themselves from negligence, due to which their batsmen gave a strong target of 320 with the help of 6 wickets, which was enough for their victory, but it was their own negligence that they did not focus on bowling. If they had worked hard and worked hard on this too, their target would have been achieved for them and made the first match of this series successful for them. Now the tough for them is that they will have to victory the second match and if this does not happen, then they will lose this series too on the defeat of the second match. With the effort and passion with which the India U-19 team has played and before the last few balls are over, they will achieve this target and victory. In this match, the batting was very hard and good, while the bowling was poor from both sides.

England U19s vs South Africa U19s

The South Africa Under-19s tour of England series is now tie with both teams winning one game each. Only one game remains and it will decide series. Let's see which team comes out on top. In 2 nd ODI game, England U19s team won toss and they decided to take first field or batting and they elected field first and gave batting line to South Africa U19s team. South Africa U19s team gave 227 runs target in 50 overs by losing all wickets. Ali bowler bowled out 3 wickets in 7 overs and gave 29 runs.

Rockey also remained not out and batted well with Ben batsmen and made 79 runs in 92 balls. Congratulations England U19s team won this 2 nd odi game.

This is the second match of the Under 19 series between South Africa and England Under 19. In this match the first team South Africa batted and set a target of 227 runs. If you look at the batting of all their players, it seems that everyone worked together to achieve this target and all such players scored some score.

Ben Dawkins, the opening player, and Rocky Flintoff, who was playing in the last over, both performed very well, in which the first player scored 118 runs and the second  The player scored 79 runs and won the match.

What a brilliant performance England women Under-19s team showed in this inning. It was brilliant game they played. England women team gave lowest runs and dismissed all team at lowest total. They gave very tough time to opponent team. South Africa Under-19s team could not scored enough runs for opponent team. They should gave 270 plus runs at least then could be they could fight well. But opponent could not make more runs and they lost back to back wickets and played very poor long format inning.  On the other hand since It was very easy and easily chase able total then England women U-19s team firstly bowled outstanding bowling and then they chased this lowest total in 38.1 overs. They played outstanding batting especially Ben Dawkins and Rocky. They scored brilliant runs. So they delivered outstanding performance in both sides and won the match very easily.

In this match, the batting was very hard and good, while the bowling was poor from both sides.

Both the hosts and the visitors played well together for Sri Lanka U19 as they made a strong total of 320. It is never easy to achieve such score in youth ODI cricket and it does show the batting abilities and their performances in the middle. I don't quite agree, though, and I would deny that there's only the lack of care in it in bowling. Humans of this age are still developing their skills of pressure handling, and the ability to use skills on a regular basis, and bowling under pressure in a high chasing situation can easily get lost. Indian U19 side produced all the same very calm performance. The intentional quick one by Kushagra Ojha (92 of 67) would prove to be very useful as it kept the pressure on the Sri Lankan side and in time made the match turn around. It's not like both teams had poor bowling, remember it was better chasing action.

Bangladesh tour of Zimbabwe, 1st ODI

Now the toss will also put a huge impact on the game because the team is all in favor of the bowlers, especially pacers. Fast bowlers can generate extra bounce and extreme pace, which why the team that wins the game will surely look to bowl first.

By the way, if we think from the different mind set I think this series is very important for both the teams to make further decisions as the 2027 World Cup is ahead and both of the teams are part of this, Bangladesh also did not played the World Cup of 2026 just because they refused to come to India, so Bangladesh will play their second tournament in 2027 after the champions trophy of 2025, hosted by Pakistan.

Bangladesh tour of Zimbabwe, 1st ODI

New captain for the Zimbabwe team in one day format, Richard Ngarava.  His bowling is so massive and he is a great fast bowler, just because his height is about 6 feet 6 inches, helping him to produce extra bounce and dominate the games in an excellent manner. He has played 55 or maybe more matches and got up to 70 plus wickets.

Let's see how he will lead the team in this series. If we look on the other side, Bangladesh's captain is Mehidy Hasan Miraz who has done a great job so far. He led the team in their last four consecutive ODI wins.
