On July 14, 2025, Mitchell Starc produced one of the greatest fast-bowling spells in Test cricket history as Australia crushed West Indies by 176 runs in the third Test at Sabina Park, Kingston. Playing his 100th Test match, the left-arm pacer claimed the fastest five-wicket haul in Test history, reaching the milestone in just 15 deliveries, while also becoming only the fourth Australian to reach 400 Test wickets.

England’s bamboozling ‘Bazballers’ met the feisty India in a battle for ages in the Third Test at Lord’s from July 10-14, 2025. With the series drawn at 1-1, all eyes were on this clash, where the Three Lions were put to the sword in dramatic fashion by Virat Kohli’s aggressive Indian side four years ago. India sealed a historic 336-run win in the first game and looked to have gained the upper hand in terms of momentum in the series. What followed was a thrilling Test match with multiple intricately woven sub-plots marking this as an encounter for the ages.

On July 14, 2023, Yashasvi Jaiswal enjoyed a dream start to his Test career as he marked his debut with a magnificent century against West Indies in the first Test at Windsor Park, Roseau, Dominica. The young left-hander displayed remarkable composure and temperament, scoring a memorable 171 to help India register a dominant innings-and-141-run victory.

“Agony for New Zealand, Ecstasy for England” – These were the words of popular commentator Ian Smith as the world witnessed one of the most dramatic ends to a game of cricket. The encounter in discussion is the ICC Men’s ODI World Cup final of 2019, which was held at the storied Lord’s Cricket Ground in London on July 10 where New Zealand faced England in a bid for first glory.

Faf du Plessis turns 42 years old on Monday, July 13. It has been more than five years since the right-handed batter played for South Africa. However, he is still a force to be reckoned with in franchise leagues around the world. Du Plessis was exemplary in all three formats for the Proteas. In T20Is, he played 50 matches, amassing 1528 runs at an average of 35.53 and a strike rate of 134.39. This includes 10 fifties and one century. In this article, let’s take a look at the top three T20I performances for the legendary batter.

Faf du Plessis is undoubtedly one of the finest cricketers to have played for South Africa. The former Proteas captain is still churning out runs in franchise leagues around the world. Du Plessis, who is currently in the United States of America, is captaining the Texas Super Kings in the Major League Cricket 2026. He celebrates his 42nd birthday on Monday, July 13. To celebrate this auspicious occasion, let’s take a look at the legendary batter’s top three performances in ODI cricket.

Faf du Plessis had already made a big name for himself in international cricket before entering the Indian Premier League. He started his career in the cash-rich tournament with the Chennai Super Kings in 2012, but did not play the next season. However, he returned to the side in 2014. In his first three seasons with CSK, du Plessis ensured 300-plus run stints in each of the editions, but the franchise was suspended in 2016 and 2017, enabling him to join Rising Pune Super Giant for these two years, with majority of his CSK compatriots still by his side.

The final of the 2002 NatWest Trophy is a moment etched in the folklore of Indian cricket for various reasons. A solitary One-Day International with so many moments and sub-plots woven together created one of the most iconic matches that the sport has ever seen. A young and spirited India side, led by the spunky southpaw Sourav Ganguly, took on a dominant England in a packed cauldron that was Lord’s, with records not in their favour. Of the nine series finals India had played since 1999, they had lost eight, with the ninth one being abandoned.
