India and Royal Challengers Bangalore captain Virat Kohli understands "the privilege" of being able to play cricket in the middle of a raging pandemic and he wants all IPL participants to respect the tournament's bio-secure bubble. Speaking on RCB's Youtube show 'Bold Diaries', the 31-year-old swashbuckler said he didn't exactly miss the game during the COVID-forced lockdown, which brought sporting action to a halt.

If a batsman at the non-striker's end is leaving the crease before the bowler has released the ball, he is not following the spirit of the game and should not seek empathy if he is run out, reckons ICC match referee and former India pacer Javagal Srinath. India off-spinner R Ashwin courted controversy when he ran out Jos Buttler during last year's IPL as the England batsman backed up too far. The act triggered the age-old debate on the bowler's conduct in such dismissals. Srinath does not feel that the bowler is wrong if he runs out a batsman in this fashion. "The bowler is focusing on the batsman. For the batsman (at the non-striker's end) to stick to his crease till the ball is released is no big deal, because he's not batting, nor is he thinking of anything else." Srinath told Ashwin on his Youtube show ' DRS With Ash '. Delhi Capitals head coach Ricky Ponting feels that the bowler violates the spirit of the game by this dismissa and he wou...

After spending weeks in a bio-bubble in England, West Indies all-rounder Roston Chase finds himself in a similar setup in a different part of the world, this time back home for the eighth season of the Caribbean Premier League (CPL). It is a reality that cricketers, as well as athletes from other disciplines, are slowly getting used to — getting tested frequently before and during the course of a tournament, being isolated from the rest of the world in the bio-secure environment along with a host of other changes brought to the playing conditions by the ICC, including a ban on applying saliva on the ball. The experiences however, can vary from one setup to another, with Chase describing the setup in England as one that was far more relaxed than the one he currently finds himself in in Trinidad and Tobago — where all the matches of the 2020 edition will be taking place. "Yes, the bubble here is very much different to the one in England. I thought the one in England was a lot mor...

Dubai: Indian captain Virat Kohli admitted he was "pretty scared" to hit the nets for the first time in five months but said his first training session ahead of the upcoming IPL went "better than expected". The Royal Challengers Bangalore captain resumed training after a five-month coronavirus-forced hiatus. The net session was also attended by South African pace legend Dale Steyn and RCB team director Mike Hesson. "(It went) much better than expected, to be honest. I was pretty scared. I hadn't picked up a bat for five months, but yeah it came out better than I thought, to be honest," Kohli was quoted as saying by the franchise's website. The 31-year-old, who was RCB's highest run-getter in IPL last year, said staying fit during the lockdown helped him to react better during the net session even though he was training after a long break. "I've trained quite a bit during the lockdown, so I'm feeling quite fit and that helps. B...
