Who is the Cricket World's Best Player?
The question of who is the greatest cricketer of all time has been a perennial debate among fans and pundits alike. While the answer is often subjective and influenced by personal biases, there are several players who have consistently dominated the sport and made a strong case for the title. Let's explore some of the contenders and the factors that contribute to their greatness.
The Modern Era Dominators: Kohli, Smith, and Kane Williamson
The past decade has witnessed the rise of three exceptional talents who have redefined the standards of batting. Virat Kohli, Steve Smith, and Kane Williamson have consistently produced match-winning performances across all formats, solidifying their status as the modern era's premier batsmen.
♯1. Virat Kohli: The Indian captain's aggressive style, impeccable timing, and ability to adapt to different conditions have made him a nightmare for bowlers. His record-breaking centuries and his leadership qualities have cemented his place among the all-time greats.
♯2. Steve Smith: The Australian's unorthodox technique and his ability to score runs at will have made him a force to be reckoned with. Smith's consistency and his ability to perform under pressure have earned him widespread admiration.
♯3. Kane Williamson: The New Zealand captain's elegant strokeplay and his calm demeanor have made him a joy to watch. Williamson's ability to anchor the innings and his match-winning performances have solidified his reputation as one of the best batsmen in the world.

The All-Round Legends: Imran Khan, Kapil Dev, and Jacques Kallis
The all-rounders who have excelled in both batting and bowling have always been held in high regard. Imran Khan, Kapil Dev, and Jacques Kallis are among the most iconic all-rounders of all time.
♯1. Imran Khan: The former Pakistan captain's swing bowling and his classy batting made him a complete cricketer. His leadership qualities and his contributions to his country's success have earned him legendary status.
♯2. Kapil Dev: The Indian fast bowler's ability to swing the ball both ways and his useful batting made him a valuable asset to the team. His leadership in the 1983 World Cup-winning team cemented his place in Indian cricket history.
♯3. Jacques Kallis: The South African all-rounder's consistency and his ability to perform in all conditions have made him one of the greatest cricketers of his generation. His contributions with both bat and ball have been invaluable to his country.

The Timeless Greats: Don Bradman, Sachin Tendulkar, and West Indies Legends
While the modern era has produced some exceptional talents, there are a few players who have transcended generations and are considered among the greatest of all time. Don Bradman, Sachin Tendulkar, and the West Indies legends of the 1970s and 1980s are among the most revered names in cricket history.
♯1. Don Bradman: The Australian legend's batting average of 99.98 remains the highest in Test cricket history. His dominance over bowlers and his ability to score runs at will have made him a mythical figure in the sport.
♯2. Sachin Tendulkar: The Indian "Master Blaster" broke countless records during his illustrious career. His ability to adapt to different conditions and his consistency have made him one of the most beloved cricketers of all time.
♯3. West Indies Legends: The West Indies teams of the 1970s and 1980s boasted a formidable lineup of fast bowlers and powerful batsmen. Players like Clive Lloyd, Viv Richards, Gordon Greenidge, and Joel Garner dominated world cricket for over a decade.

THE WRATH OF KHAN
Imran Khan is indisputably Pakistan’s greatest cricketer. As an all-rounder, he bears comparison with the best there have ever been, a skillful fast bowler and resourceful batsman with a solid defense. But all of them he was a great leader that he really stood out. If you see the history of Pakistan cricket, it shows that Pakistan is a notoriously difficult team to captain.
But he had the massive charisma and stature to unify them and drive them to play above themselves, and that is quite a talent. His finest hour was undoubtedly guiding Pakistan to their first World Cup triumph in 1992, top-scoring with 72 in the final against England at MCG in front of 87k spectators. Although, Imran’s famously imploring his team earlier in the tournament when their hopes hung by a thread to fight ‘like cornered tigers’.
But he has to his name several other outstanding achievements. Imran Khan-led Pakistan to their first Test series wins in both India 1986-87 – obviously a huge thing in his country – and England in 1987. He also led Pakistan to three drawn series in a row against West Indies when West Indies were at the height of their powers. Pakistan, in fact, were the first side to seriously challenge West Indian supremacy.
When they won Test Match at Guyana in 1988, then it was the first time in ten years that West Indies had lost a home Test. The major contribution of Imran Khan when he took 11 wickets in the game. In his career, Imran claimed 80 wickets at 21.18 apiece against West Indies, an incredible record given how strong they were at the time.
He scored some important runs against them too, notably in his final series against West Indies in 1990– 91 when he averaged 50.33 (his overall average against West Indies was 27.67). Imran, who led Pakistan on and off for ten years from 1982 to 1992, mentored some fine players during that period, notably fast bowlers Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis, and Aaqib Javed.
Especially two w’s who swung the ball at pace even greater distances than he did. Imran had the bearing of a leader and for the most part, the players followed. Captaincy elevated his game to a striking degree, averaging 50.55 with the bat and 19.90 with the ball. He turned himself into a considerable bowler with an astonishing record inside Pakistan where visiting fast bowlers tended to find life desperately hard.
Imran himself took 163 wickets at 19.20 apiece there, a better record than he had elsewhere (his overall record was a hugely impressive 362 wickets in 88 Tests at 22.81 each; no one had taken more for Pakistan at the time he retired). Some of the famous players never faced him in Pakistan as he was nursing a stress fracture that prevented him from bowling for the best part of two years when toured therein 1983–84.
England encountered him in 1982 and 1987 and he was a major force both times. In three Tests in 1982, when we were perhaps a little fortunate to win the series 2–1, he scored 212 runs and took 21 wickets. However, he came to England with a passion to beat England in England in 1987. And he led the Pakistan side to do the first time.
In that series, he again took 21 wickets and was the match-winner with the ball in the one game that had a positive outcome at Headingly Leeds. Imran Khan bowling immaculately to take seven for 40 in the second innings. Imran, who was at Oxford in the early 1970s and from there joined Worcestershire, started out as a brisk medium-pacer but through determination and intelligence turned himself into a genuine fast bowler of quality. His two cousins Majid Khan and Javed Burki also led the Pakistan cricket team in the 1960s and 1970s.
Many cricketers remember facing him in one of their earliest games for Leicestershire at around the time he was stepping up his pace. It was the day after David Gower took an early exit from university and we were playing a Benson & Hedges Cup quarter-final at Worcester on a good old New Road pitch with pace and bounce. Gower was caught at slip off him and the ball carried a long way behind me, always a good measure of someone’s speed.
At the age of 18, he made a test debut against England at Edgbaston in 1971 but did not take a permanent place due to below-par performance. Hence, he continued to focus on his education and cricket in England and come back to the side in 1974 on the tour of England.
In county cricket in the period from the mid-1970s to mid-1980s, Imran would have been up there with Mike Procter and Malcolm Marshall as among the best at swinging the ball at pace. Perhaps the thing that completed his education was joining World Series, from which he emerged a far better bowler, learning from watching and working with so many other fine fast bowlers recruited by Kerry Packer. Imran Khan’s charismatic personality and athletic talent made him a popular celebrity all over the world.
In 1976, Imran took 6 for 63 and 6 for 102, for a match figure of 12 wickets to lead his country to 8 wickets win in the 3rdTest at Sydney. This spell surprises the whole Australian team and Pakistani dressing room. Before that match, he was having 9 test matches experience with 25 wickets under his belt with a heavy average of 43.52. Pakistan was trailing 0-1 in the tough series, but Imran’s hostile bowling spell makes Pakistan a marked ascent in the world of cricket.
In 1980, Imran Khan scored 123 runs in the first Test century against the powerful bowling attack of West Indies at Lahore. The years in which he played from 1980 to 1986, on either side of his lay-off for the stress fracture, he was taking his Test wickets at a very cheap cost. In 1982 he returned what remains the best match figures for Pakistan in Tests of 14 for 114 against Sri Lanka in Lahore. The following winter he took an incredible 40 wickets at 13.95 in six Tests against India.
What the Pakistan bowlers, led by Imran and Sarfraz Nawaz, seemed to understand better than everyone else was the mysterious art of swinging the old ball. Therefore, for a batsman, coping with anyone who could move the ball – whether old or new – both ways were always a challenge. You worked hard to get your runs.
The early 1980s was a great era for all-rounders with Imran Khan, Ian Botham, Richard Hadlee, and Kapil Dev all doing great things and rivaling each other for the status of top dog. In the 1987 Cricket World Cup, Khan decided to quit international cricket. But later, the Pakistan public and Zia-ul-Haq the Prime Minister requested him to take back his retirement. He could not reject the public appeal and return to international cricket until 1992.
In terms of bowling, Imran was perhaps consistently the quickest of them. Botham had times where he bowled with the same sort of pace, Hadlee could bowl a sharp delivery if needed but in comparison was slightly down on pace overall, and Kapil was brisker medium than brisk. But they all moved the ball in the air or hit the seam or both, and that was really what made them so difficult to face.
In July 1987, Imran became the first Pakistani bowler to take 300 wickets milestone during the 3rd Test vs England at Lords. If you see the stats, then Imran and Hadlee stood well out in front, averaging around 22 while Botham and Kapil took their wickets at a cost in the high 20s, a reflection really that they were unable to maintain their early brilliance into older age.
Ian Botham probably ranked first as a batsman but Imran, who began his career down the order, developed into a seriously good top-order player and accordingly ended up with six Test hundreds to his name (Botham made 14, Kapil eight, and Hadlee two). Imran kept on improving and became a world-class batsman in all forms.
Indeed, towards the end of his career, he was playing more as a batsman who bowled than a bowler who batted, and when he scored those runs in the 1992 World Cup final, he was batting at number 3. His Test record with the bat was highly respectable, an average of 37.69 comparing well to Botham’s 33.54, Kapil’s 31.05, and Hadlee’s 27.16.
Imran retired from all forms of cricket after winning the 1992 world cup. What gives Imran preeminence in this all-rounder fest is his stature as a leader of a national side that had previously lacked any direction. Since Imran, Pakistan cricket has rarely been stable. Talented players continue to be produced in extraordinary numbers given the absence of a coherent domestic structure.
But it has been engulfed in more than one corruption scandal, while a terrorist attack on a touring Sri Lanka team in 2009 has forced them since to set up a new home in the Middle East. Imran himself has entered politics in the ambitious hope of addressing his country’s many problems. After retirement, he entered politics and outspoken critic of government corruption in Pakistan.
Imran Khan laid the foundation of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf in 1996. Imran Khan started a new journey into Pakistan politics and continued their efforts after badly failing in the 2002, and 2007 elections. Eventually, his efforts bring some happiness to his party becoming a strong candidate for the 2013 elections.
Even in one accident he badly injured his neck and back to falling from a platform at an election campaign rally. Therefore, his braveness in fighting against corruption & poverty won a plurality of seats in the July 2018 elections. Then he became the 22nd prime minister of Pakistan. The first cricketer to be knighted a prime minister of any country.
Imran Khan remains a philanthropist in the public eye. He has a great passion to build a cancer hospital after his mother died of those diseases in 1985. His wish was fulfilled by completing Shaukat Khanum Hospital in Lahore in 1994 named after Khan’s mother.

[ad_1] Zaheer Abbas and Virat Kohli (Image: X) In 1989, during India’s tour of Pakistan, a distraught Mohammad Azharuddin had turned to Zaheer Abbas for advice. He was going through an elongated lean patch and was on the verge of losing his place in the Indian team. Zaheer told Azhar to change his grip and it changed the course of the latter’s career. After failing in the first Test in Karachi, Azhar bounced back with a match-saving 109 in the second Test in Faisalabad. He returned from the series with 312 runs in four Tests, including a hundred and two half-centuries. Cut to 2024, and from a distance Zaheer has a piece of advice for Virat Kohli – “concentrate harder”. The legendary former Pakistan batsman refused to believe that Kohli’s career has entered the twilight zone and he backed the former India captain to regain his mojo in Australia. “Kohli doesn’t have any technical problem, just that he needs to concentrate harder,” Zaheer said, speaking to RevSportz. “When you are playing almost non-stop cricket, your mind can become jaded and you tend to lose concentration while batting. I think this is Kohli’s problem at the moment. He needs to be in the right frame of mind. He still has a few years of cricket left in him.” Somehow it feels like Kohli no longer remains the batsman he used to be. Over the last two years, he has scored 1,186 runs in 20 Tests at an average of 35.93. In the recently concluded Test series against New Zealand that India lost 3-0, Kohli made just 93 runs in six innings at an average of 15.50. His career average, which was above 55 at one stage, has now slid to 47.83. Against this backdrop, he is going to Australia for a five-Test series. Maybe, there’s no further room for a slip-up. “I back Kohli to score runs on true Australian pitches,” said Zaheer. “He would enjoy batting there. The ball will come on to the bat. There will not be much lateral movement, and he is a great player. If he can get into the right frame of mind, he should score a lot of runs.” A change of scenery could help, and Kohli has always enjoyed batting in Australia. In 13 Tests Down Under, he has 1,352 at an average of 54.08, including six hundreds. Meanwhile, the ex-Pakistan skipper chose not to read too much into Kohli’s travails against spin in the New Zealand series. “Batting sometimes can become a lottery on rank turners,” said Zaheer. “Anytime a ball might come with your name on it. Such pitches can make even average spinners look like world-class bowlers. I don’t think Kohli has any technical issues against spin. That said, he hasn’t been scoring runs for a while now and he has to get back to form in Australia. A lot will depend on how performs in the series.” India’s T20-style batting approach in Test cricket under Gautam Gambhir has become a cause celebre. Rewind to Kohli’s dismissal in the first innings of the second Test in Pune. A full-toss from Mitchell Santner went under the bat, as the star batsman tried to play it across the line. Ten times out of ten, Kohli would have put the delivery away if he were playing with a straight bat. It was clear that he was trying to innovate to be in sync with the team’s newly-adopted philosophy. It had happened to Joe Root as well, as he tried to adjust to the demands of Bazball. Several times he got out trying to manufacture shots – an attempted reverse-lap against Jasprit Bumrah earlier this year was a case in point. Returning to his natural game has reaped rich dividends for the England great. “Kohli must play his natural game,” said Zaheer.

Depleted and against all logic, New Zealand is in Pakistan for a battle of un-equals
In an effort to appease its hosts, New Zealand was forced to publicly promise Pakistan compensation in May of last year. They would have to pay out of their own wallets to make up for canceling a tour to Pakistan on the day of the first game in September 2021, claiming a particular security concern. But because they wouldn't divulge it, the amount they would pay was pretty vague. The assurances persisted. As part of their preparation for the then-imminent T20 World Cup in Australia, they would also invite Pakistan to a triangular T20 International series. And they would make two further trips to Pakistan over the course of the following year. In December, they would play Tests, and in January, ODIs. Then, as though these two nations were neighbors, New Zealand would visit Pakistan once more in order to play 10 games of the white ball, five of each format. Mr. Raja, would that be acceptable? Despite the fact that Ramiz Raja may no longer be alive, New Zealand is still present. Despite the fact that it is already mid-April and the season in which it becomes uncomfortable hot has just about started. It doesn't matter that Ramadan has pushed the start of the T20Is to 9 p.m. local time, which means they won't end before midnight. Or that Pakistan will be playing cricket as the rest of the nation celebrates the end of Ramadan since the series will coincide with Eid. Don't worry about the fact that the majority of New Zealand's top athletes are now on the other side of the Attari-Wagah border. A New Zealand team that was so weakened by factors other than injury has not been to another nation since the team captained by Jamie How in England in April 2008. How was Frank at the moment while discussing the unavailable players as they competed in the first-ever IPL competition, which you may have heard of? He had stated, as if a whole tour of England wasn't one of the highlights of New Zealand's cricketing year, that "I think everyone wishes they were in India at some point." On the eve of the series in Lahore, Tom Latham—who was now filling in for Williamson—was acting with a little more reserve. The planning hasn't been great," he said. But as members of the international cricket team, we must adjust as fast as possible. Although we have only had one training session prior to this series, and if the circumstances are different, we must trust the work we have already completed at home. The group includes several young men as well as some more seasoned members. men with extensive international T20 cricket experience. These players were chosen based on their performances in New Zealand's domestic cricket, and this is a fantastic chance for them.
There are several first-choice players for Pakistan
Sethi has agreed to support me. In every series, we strive to deliver our best. I am unable to obtain a written guarantee that I will serve as captain. But I make an effort to use my power and uphold the norms I've established. I don't attempt to pay attention to what is being spoken, but things are happening in the background. If I did, the pressure would only rise. There is more to that final argument than simply that, but since Babar has stated that the two would bat first, there is little use in beating a dead horse. With the T20 World Cup 18 months away, Pakistan will have time on their side to put the Afghanistan series behind Saim Ayub and Mohammad Haris. In addition, Ihsanullah and Zaman Khan get another chance, while Shaheen Shah Afridi is back to platoon over with Naseem Shah and Haris Rauf, so Pakistan should have no dearths in that area. Pakistan has top-notch quick bowlers who can snuff out fires and a strong top order. They have a formula that has worked for them in the past, and while they are looking to tweak it to help them advance, Babar believes there is no need to completely throw it out. We are strong enough to win this series, he declared. Our youthful athletes' performances in the PSL, both as bowlers and batsmen, have been outstanding. And some of our more experienced guys, like Haris Rauf, Naseem, and Shaheen, are singing. We've created a fantastic mix. You cannot, however, guarantee that it will be simple. Even though even their youngest players have plenty of form and experience, it is a misconception that this is New Zealand's B squad. The majority of their players are seasoned professionals.
Uncertainty surrounding Babar Azam's captaincy
Even if Pakistan's preparations went as well as they should have, they still managed to create some of their own. Unusually, it came from the nation's top cricket official, PCB chairman Najam Sethi, who used Twitter to issue a statement that was everything but a clear endorsement of the skipper. He acknowledged that he had sought the selection committee's opinion on the advantages of keeping Babar, and he stated that going forward, he would be guided by the selectors and head coach. He added that his choice will depend on whether the status quo was successful or unsuccessful. At Babar's pre-series briefing, Sethi, a former journalist, had nonchalantly dropped that bombshell only one day before current journalists sat down, placing the captain in the agonizingly hard position of defending himself while not appearing to contradict the person who had the authority to fire him. Babar added, very much with the attitude of a man walking a tightrope, "Sethi has given me his backing." In every series, we strive to deliver our best. I am unable to obtain a written guarantee that I will serve as captain. But I make an effort to use my power and uphold the norms I've established. I don't attempt to pay attention to what is being spoken, but things are happening in the background. If I did, the pressure would only rise. Babar is under pressure that he does not need and does not deserve. But the Gaddafi stadium may be in for some surprisingly exciting Ramzan cricket if it gives this series the extra edge and spice it so urgently needs.
Conclusion
The New Zealand cricket team is currently touring Pakistan for a 10-match white-ball series after canceling their last visit in 2002, citing security reasons. New Zealand's weakened squad, due to injuries and player withdrawals, faces a strong Pakistani team with top-quality fast bowlers and a formidable batting line-up. The series coincides with Ramadan, and the T20 matches will be played after midnight local time. The tour has caused some uncertainty regarding Babar Azam's captaincy after the Pakistan Cricket Board chairman made ambiguous comments about his future in the role. Read the full article

England's Captaincy Carousel Continues as Livingstone Steps In
Persistent Injury Forcibly Sidelines Buttler Jos Buttler, England's wicketkeeping mainstay, has been ruled out again with a recurring calf injury. An injury he sustained on a family holiday has repeatedly barred him from returning to the international stage. The medical team managed to get him fit several times, but persistent setbacks over the past year have cast serious doubt over long-term availability. Ben Sutherland from Crystal Palace, London, UK, CC BY 2.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0, via Wikimedia Commons Livingstone Takes the Helm England has promoted dynamic all-rounder Liam Livingstone for their one-day series against West Indies. This will be the sixth change of captaincy for England within 2024, a testament to injuries and a quest for finding consistency in the person leading from the front. Bairstow's Struggles End Jonny Bairstow was also in that list of players contracted for another year, yet he could not end up getting a recall to the England squad. That was the fifth game running that he wasn't playing for his country, following the T20 World Cup. Both Livingstone and a persistent injury to Buttler have also also denied him an opportunity to get back into the team. A New Face in the ODI Squad For Essex wicketkeeper-batter Michael Pepper, his maiden call-up to the England ODI side is the third consecutive blow that has dented Bairstow's hopes for a comeback. This new inclusion adds a fresh dimension to the team and gives Pepper an opportunity to express himself at international level. Road Ahead for Buttler While Buttler remains hopeful of finding himself in the national side for the T20 series against West Indies, for him it would first be recovery from the calf injury. He wouldn't get enough chances to prepare for the all-important Champions Trophy in Pakistan. Transition Year It has been more of a transition year for England cricket, with so many captains plus injuries blighted the rhythm. So, it is just another step in this journey that the board has selected Livingstone as ODI series captain against West Indies. It will be interesting to see how they go in the immediately following matches while trying to navigate these challenges. Read the full article

[ad_1] Smriti Mandhana in ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 (PC: ICC) Snehasis Mukherjee in Dubai Team India’s ICC Women’s T20 World Cup campaign in the UAE had many problems. One of the biggest was the poor form of vice-captain Smriti Mandhana. Fans had high hopes for her, as she is considered to be the best batter in the squad. But she scored only 75 runs in four innings, at an average of 18.75 and a strike-rate of 94.93. Her only decent knock was a fifty. It was a tough campaign for the opener. Apart from her innings against Sri Lanka, she struggled in all other games. Before the tournament, India played two warm-up games. She failed in both, getting out to spinners. In the World Cup, she was dismissed by spinners three times and was run out once. Struggle against spinners Smriti’s struggle against spin, especially on slow, spin-friendly pitches, is a real concern. She is the kind of batter who likes the ball coming on the bat and that is known by now in world cricket. She looked unsure about the lines and lengths of the deliveries that got her out. There were no clear foot movements, and she got stuck in the crease, failing to use its depth to her advantage. In contrast, New Zealand’s Sophie Devine showed positive intent against India, using her feet and coming down the track. Smriti can take a cue from that approach. Even the Australian batters, on the tricky, spin-friendly Sharjah pitch, handled India’s spinners well and scored 150-plus. In her T20I career so far, Smriti has been dismissed 57 times by spinners and 60 times by pacers. But in the last two years, she has been dismissed 24 times by the spinners and only 11 times by the pacers in a total of 36 innings. Lack of intent Smriti also needs to work on her intent. Her quality as a batter is undeniable, but as an opener in T20s, more intensity is needed. In the shortest format, it is important to give a brisk start, and while Shafali Verma often plays the attacking role, that does not mean Smriti should not be aggressive. For instance, in the game against Australia, Shafali played a quick cameo before getting out. When Jemimah Rodrigues joined her, fans expected Smriti to take charge, as she was already settled. However, she did not show much intent, focusing more on taking singles and twos rather than pushing for boundaries or taking control of the game. For the Latest Sports News: Click Here Smriti Mandhana in WC 2024 (Source: EspnCricinfo) Strike rotation and strike rate The 28-year-old finished the tournament with a strike-rate of less than 100, which is simply unacceptable. This year, she has scored 570 runs in 18 T20I innings at a strike-rate of 118.25 — slightly better than last year’s 116.39. However, from 2020 to 2022, her strike rate was consistently above 130. One of her biggest issues has been playing too many dot balls early in her innings, especially during Powerplay overs. She has struggled to find gaps against spinners, making it difficult to rotate the strike regularly. Before the Sri Lanka game, Smriti admitted in a press conference that she was frustrated with her performance against Pakistan, particularly for playing so many dot balls, which led to a rash shot and her dismissal. Not turning up on big occasions Despite averaging 38.00 this year in T20Is, she has faltered when it mattered most. In recent key matches like the Commonwealth Games final, last year’s World Cup semi-final against Australia, and now against both New Zealand and Australia, she failed to deliver. Her only fifty came against Sri Lanka, a team that lost all their matches. Even in the Asia Cup final, her fifty against Sri Lanka was in a losing cause. As India’s best batter, her failure to perform in big games is frustrating for fans who expect her to shine. Many die-hard fans travelled from India to watch her in action in the UAE. Smriti’s performances proved to be a let-down. The recurring pattern is a cause of concern. After this disappointing World Cup campaign, India’s captaincy
could be on the line, with a possibility that Smriti might take over from Harmanpreet Kaur. But is this the right time? A captain needs to lead from the front, performing consistently to inspire the team. It requires not only skill but also responsibility, hard work and courage. The question is whether Smriti is ready for such a role. As a batter, she first needs to address her own struggles and work on them quickly before the opportunity slips away.
