07-May-2015•Amol Karhadkar in Mumbai

Bangladesh's best fast bowler sidelined

Robiul Islam is Bangladesh's best Test fast bowler of the last five years, but a place for him in the side is as far away as Bangladesh are from having a stable bowling attack in Tests

07-May-2015•Mohammad Isam in Mirpur

Azhar gives Pakistan 226 reasons to cheer

His calm and assured innings proved once again that Pakistan's batting, at least in Tests, will be in safe hands once Misbah-ul-Haq and Younis Khan call it quits

07-May-2015•Umar Farooq in Mirpur

07-May-2015•Nagraj Gollapudi in Bangalore

Fair decision, but inadequate ammunition

On a pitch expected to help fast bowlers, Mushfiqur Rahim's decision to bowl first seemed good enough on paper but without enough firepower in his bowling attack, it was never going to be put to proper use

06-May-2015•Mohammad Isam in Mirpur

Mumbai Indians find their rhythm

First through Harbhajan Singh's miserly spell, and then through the Ambati Rayudu and his colleagues, Mumbai Indians broke into the top four for the first time this year.

06-May-2015•Amol Karhadkar

Spin does the trick for KKR

Both teams knew there would be turn, but over the course of the match it became clear that only Kolkata Knight Riders really knew how to use that to their advantage.

04-May-2015•Karthik Krishnaswamy

Short-term failures threaten England's long-term direction

England's defeat in Barbados, and their failure to win the series in the West Indies, is another black mark on Peter Moores' report card as coach. However, the team is moving in the right direction

04-May-2015•George Dobell in Barbados

West Indies shake off 'mediocre' perception

They were labelled 'mediocre' by Colin Graves before series began, but in drawing this series 1-1 West Indies have shown both discipline and confidence, a cocktail that has rarely been present in equal measures in the Caribbean of late

04-May-2015•George Dobell in Bridgetown

Royals dominate in front of sparse crowd

A small crowd at the Brabourne Stadium saw Rajasthan Royals enjoy conditions similar to Jaipur and Delhi Daredevils let themselves down in the field, time and time again

03-May-2015•Amol Karhadkar

Sporting conditions create gripping contest

At the end of an attritional series, this was a day's play that felt like opening a window on a stuffy room. There is plenty at stake and not a ball can be missed. Isn't that the way Test cricket should be?

03-May-2015•George Dobell in Bridgetown

Lack of bowling flexibility hurts Super Kings

MS Dhoni's field placements have mostly been intuitive this IPL but a tendency to stick to a formulaic bowling strategy, devoid of surprise, revealed itself again.

03-May-2015•Arun Venugopal in Hyderabad

Knight Riders bowlers miss the smart card

In a match reduced to 10 overs, the key for the fast bowlers was to mix quicker deliveries with slower bouncers. But when it came to the crunch moments, Knight Riders forgot about their well laid out plans and paid the price

02-May-2015•Nagraj Gollapudi in Bangalore

Centurion Kayes overcomes wicketkeeping ordeal

Mumbai's finishers swing the game

With bat and ball, Mumbai Indians found players to raise their games in the final stretch of both innings, giving the crowd of around 32,000 an enjoyable start to the long weekend

02-May-2015•Amol Karhadkar in Mumbai

Trott suffers moment of defeat

This was Jonathan Trott's lowest moment. The moment when the truth could no longer be concealed. The moment when hope vanished for his international future

01-May-2015•George Dobell in Bridgetown

Two-paced pitches and one-sided games

Forty overs is not enough time for a pitch to wear, but if it is up and down the chasing team has a distinct advantage as Delhi Daredevils showed at Feroz Shah Kotla

01-May-2015•Sidharth Monga in Delhi

Tamim's aggression revives Bangladesh

A deficit of 296 could have been reason to be bogged down, but Tamim Iqbal led Bangladesh into a fighting position in the Khulna Test by reprising his firebrand approach to batting

01-May-2015•Mohammad Isam in Khulna

Knight Riders turn back the clock to 2014 formula

After serving as the catalyst for KKR's 2014 IPL title run, Robin Uthappa's early season struggles typified the Knight Riders' fortunes. But Thursday's win over Super Kings showed last year's magic was still there just waiting to be stirred
