Watch: Kuldeep Yadav Conjures Spin Magic To Strike Twice In Same Over

Team India on Saturday hammared West Indies by nine wickets in the fourth T20I in Lauderhill, California to force the series-decider, which will be played at the same venue on Sunday. An outstanding effort by the bowlers, followed by a colossal opening partnership between Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal saw India chase down 179 with three overs to spare. While Arshdeep Singh (3/38) was India's most successful bowler in terms of wickets, it was Kuldeep Yadav (2/26) who kept the Windies batting unit on a tight leash.

After being introduced to the attack, Kuldeep struck twice in the same over to dismiss Nicholas Pooran and Rovman Powell.

Electing to bat first, West Indies' essay revolved around two partnerships - a 49 for the fifth wicket between Hope and Hetmyer and then a 47 for the eighth wicket between Hetmyer and Odean Smith.

However, the home batsmen, save Shimron Hetmyer (61) and Shai Hope (45), failed to capitalise on an excellent chance to put on board a bigger total.

In reply, Jaiswal and Gill used the wicket's friendly nature to the hilt as 66 runs cascaded in the Power Play segment.

Both went on to score their maiden half-centuries, and ensured that the total was not even sufficient to stretch India.

Gill (77 off 47 balls) and Jaiswal (84 not out off 51 balls) added 165 runs for the first wicket.

Skipper Ashleigh Gardner starred with both bat and ball, leading Gujarat Giants to a comprehensive six-wicket win over UP Warriorz in their Women's Premier League match in Vadodara on Sunday. Gardner (2/39) claimed two wickets and then scored a stylish 32-ball 52, her second consecutive fifty, as Gujarat registered their first win of the third edition of the tournament, following a loss in the opening game to Royal Challengers Bengaluru. Opting to bowl, Gujarat produced a clinical effort with young spinner Priya Mishra returning impressive figures of 4-0-25-3. Skipper Gardner, Deandra Dottin (2/34), and Kashvee Gautam (1/15) also played key roles in restricting UPW to 143 for nine. Chasing 144 to win, the Giants were reduced to 22 for 2 with opener Beth Mooney and Dayalan Hemalata back in the pavilion after UPW introduced spin at both ends. However, Gardner produced an inspired knock, adding 55 runs off 42 balls with Laura Wolvaardt (22) to resurrect the innings. Gardner struck t...

'Not Taught About Sambhaji': Ex-Cricketer's 'Aurangzeb' Remarks Start Debate

The Vicky Kaushal-starrer movie 'Chhaava', based on the life and times of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj - the second ruler of the Maratha Confederacy and son of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, has received positive response from audience across the country. Apart from Vicky Kaushal as Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, Rashmika Mandanna (as Yesubai Bhonsale), Akshaye Khanna (as Aurangzeb), Ashutosh Rana (as Hambirrao Mohite), Diana Penty (as Zinat-un-Nissa Begum) and Divya Dutta (as Soyarabai) play prominent roles in the movie.   Former India cricket team star Aakash Chopra also liked the movie. He, however, raised some questions after watching the film.  "Watched Chhaava today. Incredible tale of bravery, selflessness and the sense of duty.  Genuine question—why were we not taught about Chattrapati Sambhaji Maharaj at all in school? Not even a mention anywhere!!!  We did learn though how Akbar was a great and fair emperor, and even have a very prominent road called Auran...
