New 60-ball Cricket Tournament from West Indies…
West Indies Cricket Association and Caribbean Premier League organizers have introduced a new 60-ball cricket tournament called ‘THE 6ixty’.
The first-ever THE 6ixty Tournament is scheduled to play from August 24-28 in St. Kitts and Nevis with the participation of 6 men’s teams and 3 women’s teams. According to the West Indies Cricket Association, the tournament will feature a number of top cricketers.
West Indies Cricket authorities have introduced several new rules that are unique to THE 6ixty tournament.
In this tournament, each team will get only 6 wickets instead of 10 wickets. That is, with the loss of the 6th wicket, all the players are considered to have been dismissed.
One team has two powerplay overs, and in THE 6ixty series, the batting team has the potential to win even a third powerplay over if they want to. But to get the third powerplay, the batsmen have to hit two sixes in the first 12 balls.
The bowling team will have to bowl five consecutive overs at one end in this new series, although bowling will generally be able to switch the side from over to over.
West Indies Cricket emphasizes that if a team fails to bowl 10 overs in 45 minutes, it will have to bowl the last 6 balls without a fielder.

Dilshan Madushanka Earns IPL Opportunity with Sunrisers Hyderabad
Sri Lankan pace sensation Dilshan Madushanka has secured a spot in the Indian Premier League, stepping in as a replacement player for Sunrisers Hyderabad. The franchise announced his inclusion after England fast bowler Brydon Carse was ruled out of the tournament due to injury.
Madushanka, known for his sharp left-arm pace and ability to swing the ball early, joins the squad as a like-for-like replacement. His addition comes at a crucial stage in the tournament, where teams are looking to fine-tune their combinations for a strong finish.
Sunrisers Hyderabad have been actively reshaping their bowling unit, and Madushanka’s arrival is expected to add both variety and depth. His international experience, particularly in high-pressure situations, makes him a valuable asset as the team navigates the latter half of the competition.
For Madushanka, this opportunity marks another significant milestone in his growing career. Having already impressed on the global stage with his pace and wicket-taking ability, the IPL now offers him a platform to showcase his skills among some of the best players in the world.

Chamindu Wickramasinghe’s bowling action under scrutiny?
Sri Lankan fast bowler Chamindu Wickramasinghe has come under the spotlight after his bowling action was officially reported as suspicious during a recent domestic encounter.
The incident occurred in a match of the National Super League held from April 6 to 9, where the Dambulla side faced Colombo. Wickramasinghe, representing Dambulla, drew attention from match officials, prompting concerns over the legality of his action.

The on-field umpires, Deepal Gunawardena and Ravindra Wimalasiri, made the report in accordance with standard procedures. Match referee Manoj Mendis also oversaw the process, ensuring that all regulations were followed.
Following the report, the matter has been referred to the Sri Lanka Cricket High Performance Unit for further assessment. Wickramasinghe may now be required to undergo biomechanical testing to determine whether his bowling action complies with the laws of the game.

Sri Lanka lasses continue to impress
Sri Lanka Under-19 Women extended their impressive run in the Tri-Series with a composed four-wicket victory over Australia Women Under-19 cricket team at Bill Pippen Oval Today.
After being put in to bat, Australia U-19 struggled to build momentum against a disciplined Sri Lankan bowling attack. Ayla Johnson top-scored with 18 off 29 balls, while Alyssa Dermody added a quick 13. However, regular wickets halted their progress as they finished on a modest 91 for 9 in 20 overs. Limansa Thilakarathne led the bowling effort with an impressive 3 for 26, well supported by Chamudi Praboda, who claimed 2 for 21.
In response, Sri Lanka Women Under-19 cricket team chased down the target with 92 for 6 in 19.3 overs. Despite a few setbacks, Pramudi Methsara anchored the innings with an unbeaten 21 off 17 balls, while Danodya Sewmini contributed a steady 14. Australia’s Filippa Suesee (3 for 18) and Ira Aery (2 for 13) fought hard, but Sri Lanka held their nerve.
