Kieron Pollard powers MINY into MLC 2025 final with blistering finish
Dallas [US], July 12 (ANI): Kieron Pollard may be a batting coach for Mumbai Indians (MI) in the Indian Premier League (IPL), a fitting role at 38, but across the globe, including in Major League Cricket (MLC), he continues to operate as a full-fledged allrounder. On Friday night in Dallas, he reminded everyone just how vital he is to MI New York, smashing an unbeaten match-winning 47 off just 22 deliveries to steer his side into the MLC 2025 final. The Texas Super Kings, who seemed destined for the title clash, were left stunned as Pollard turned the tide, as per ESPNcricinfo. Chasing 167, MI New York's innings got off to a shaky start. Quinton de Kock and Michael Bracewell departed early, both failing to reach double figures within the first seven overs. The scoreboard read 43 when Bracewell fell, thanks largely to Monank Patel's efforts, though he laboured at a strike rate of around 120. Nicholas Pooran, who joined Monank after Bracewell's dismissal, also struggled for fluency early on. By the time Monank was dismissed for a fighting 49 off 39 balls in the 13th over, MI New York had only reached 83. Pollard came to the crease and faced his first delivery from Noor Ahmad and dispatched it 100 metres straight down the ground, a warning shot that signalled the momentum shift to come. Despite his fireworks, TSK managed to hold their ground until the 16th over, with the required rate still at a steep 12.5. Then came the defining moment as Zia-ul-Haq was handed the ball, and Pollard, from the second delivery of the over, went on a rampage, 6, 4, 4, 2, 6. The over yielded 23 runs and decisively swung the game in MI New York's favour. The rest of the chase was a formality. Pooran sealed the win with his third six, finishing unbeaten on 52 off 36, while Pollard walked off with 47 off 22, his late blitz proving the difference. MI New York, who had only managed three wins from ten league matches and had to battle through the Eliminator and Qualifier 2, had now secured their place in the final, where they will face Washington Freedom. The loss was particularly bitter for Texas Super Kings, especially after a promising finish with the bat. Their innings had been built around Faf du Plessis, who scored a measured 59 off 42 balls while wickets tumbled around him. Smit Patel, Saiteja Mukkamalla, Shubham Ranjane, and Marcus Stoinis all fell cheaply, leaving TSK teetering at 85/5 in the 13th over. Du Plessis' dismissal sparked an unexpected resurgence, though. Akeal Hosein and Donovan Ferreira stitched together a 81-run stand in just 45 balls. Hosein's aggressive 55 off 32 and Ferreira's 32 off 20 lifted TSK to a competitive 166/5, giving them a fighting chance. In the end, it wasn't enough. Pollard, ably supported by Pooran, ensured MI New York completed a dramatic turnaround and marched into the final with momentum and belief firmly on their side. (ANI)

Pat Cummins to miss South Africa white-ball series, focuses on Ashes preparation
Kingston [Jamaica], July 12 (ANI): Australia's Test captain Pat Cummins is set to sit out next month's white-ball series against South Africa as he shifts focus to building up his fitness ahead of the Ashes later this year, as per ESPNcricinfo. Cummins had already been rested from the ongoing T20I series against the West Indies, along with Mitchell Starc and Travis Head. Now, fellow fast bowler Josh Hazlewood, who was initially named in the squad for South Africa, will also return home following the Test series. Xavier Bartlett has been drafted in as his replacement. 'I'll have a good training block for the next couple of months, six weeks or so,' Cummins told reporters, as quoted from ESPNcricinfo. 'Probably not bowling, but lots of gym work. (My) body feels pretty good, but there's always little bits and pieces you're always trying to get right and then build up for the summer. So it'll probably look like white-ball (cricket)...we've got some (matches against) New Zealand, India, potentially a Shield game and then into the home summer,' he added. Cummins, who remains Australia's ODI captain, has only led the team twice in the format since lifting the World Cup in 2023. He also missed the Champions Trophy earlier this year as he managed an ongoing ankle issue during the Test series against India. As attention turns toward the Ashes, the early rounds of the next Sheffield Shield season are shaping up to be crucial in finalizing Australia's top-order combination. Sam Konstas will have two more innings against the West Indies to press his case, Usman Khawaja has the same number of chances to silence questions around his form. Cameron Green will aim to build on his second-innings fifty in Grenada and is likely to play in South Africa before shifting his focus to regaining his bowling rhythm. Green remains part of the T20I squad in the West Indies, while Konstas is expected to be involved in the four-day Australia A tour of India in September. Khawaja, on the other hand, may not play again until the domestic season resumes for Queensland. 'There's a lot of Shield cricket to come and some Aussie A stuff as well,' Cummins said. 'I think (if) you do well at Test level, any time it's going to kind of make your case more compelling. I think there's a bit of a connection to the summer, but it feels a long way away at the moment,' he noted. Xavier Bartlett, who has enjoyed an impressive start to his T20I career with 11 wickets at an average of 14.72 from seven matches, will join the squad in the Caribbean after a strong Major League Cricket (MLC) campaign with the San Francisco Unicorns, where he currently leads the tournament's wicket charts. He'll be joined by Jake Fraser-McGurk, who replaces Spencer Johnson. Johnson is recovering from a back issue sustained during the Indian Premier League (IPL). Fraser-McGurk, who also played for the Unicorns, started the MLC brightly but ended with four single-digit scores in his last five innings. He has scored 113 runs from seven T20Is, with a best of 50 against Scotland last year. However, he struggled during this year's IPL with the Delhi Capitals (DC), averaging just 9.16. His Big Bash League (BBL) form for the Melbourne Renegades was also modest, with 188 runs at 18.80--95 of those coming in the last game of the season. The T20I series against West Indies begins on July 20, with the first two matches at Sabina Park, followed by three games in St Kitts. (ANI)
