ICC chief executive Haroon Lorgat has revealed that a proposal to have a World Test Championship, devised to rescue the longest, oldest and best form of the game from oblivion, is in jeopardy.

Defending out of form off- spinner Harbhajan Singh, who was recently dropped from the Indian one-day team for the upcoming series against England, Indian pacer Zaheer Khan has said Singh had done great things for the country and a bowler of his calibre would come back stronger.

Indian opener and Kolkata Knight Riders captain Gautam Gambhir insisted that he has completely recovered from the concussion he sustained during the recent tour of England even though he was out for a duck in his IPL team’s loss to Somerset in the Champions League Twenty20.

Gautam Gambhir was a double leaving eligible bachelor status. He will tie the knot with a Delhi-based girl Natasha Jain. However, the exact date for wedding is not revealed yet.

Sachin Tendulkar who has now come out publicily in support of revamping the current 50-over format having written a letter to ICC Chief Executive Haroon Lorgat.

Team India has lost four test matches, a one-off T20 and two ODIs in the tour so far. They struggle to win even a single match. The last ODI at the Lord’s ended in a tie. India now look forward to salvage some lost pride by winning the 5th ODI, which looks a herculean task.

England’s Stuart Broad has been ruled out of five-match ODI series in India, which will begin next month. The player has been advised to take rest after he received injury to his right shoulder in the fourth ODI against India at Lord’s.

Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni won the Spirit of Cricket Award while iconic batsman Sachin Tendulkar missed out the Cricketer of the Year honour at a glittering ICC Awards function on Monday.

As Team India’s performance and fourtune continued to slide in England, it was reflected in the ICC ‘Test Team of the YEar’ too. Only Tendulkar managed to get a place in the team.
