Glenn Maxwell: Australia allrounder braced for return from broken leg

1 month ago The Cricketer

Maxwell has not made the progress he had hoped since breaking his leg at a friend's birthday party but with the Indian Premier League, T20 Blast, The Hundred and ODI World Cup on the horizon hopes he has timed his return to perfection. Maxwell is in line for his first international outing since the T20 World Cup (PATRICK HAMILTON/AFP via Getty Images)"Having not played for three-and-a-half months, I made a conscious decision to make sure I filled up my calendar with cricket to lead into that World Cup at the back end of the year. Obviously, there's the one-day series which is going to be a big series, especially with the World Cup in India at the back end of the year. So that's probably something I'm working on over the next few games - club cricket on Saturday and the Shield game as well. I always said I was building towards that one-day series in the back of my mind.

T20 World Cup: Netherlands have chance to inflict pain on out-of-form Bangladesh

It was the only win mustered by the Dutch in what was then the Super 10s, having edged past Ireland and the United Arab Emirates. Stephan Myburgh made 38; he is one of four survivors from that evening – Logan van Beek, Timm van der Gugten and Tom Cooper the others. If their failings then are anything to go by – pace and bounce caused a relentless panic throughout – then the Netherlands' attack ought to be licking its lips. They lost both group games at the Asia Cup, with UAE, Afghanistan and Zimbabwe the only countries they've beaten in T20Is in 2022. Three games into their own campaign, against a side short on form and rhythm, they won't get a better chance.

Faf du Plessis: South Africa suspected Australia ball-tampering before Cape Town episode

South Africa suspected Australia were ball-tampering before Cape Town incident, says Faf du Plessis"My fire to play for the Proteas was slowly smothered," admits the former captain due to his relationship with head coach Mark Boucher, which led to his Test retirementFaf du Plessis says South Africa believed Australia were ball-tampering before the controversial episode at Cape Town in 2018. Du Plessis' side had been alerted to a possible infringement prior to the episode that unfolded on the third day at Newlands. Du Plessis adds that Smith, whose punishment included a two-year ban from leadership positions, didn't do "much wrong". It was a blot on Du Plessis' copybook during a South Africa career that included 69 Tests, 143 one-day internationals and 50 T20Is. Du Plessis claims he tried to organise a meeting to inform Boucher of his decision, but the request fell on deaf ears.
