Tagenerin Chandrapaul’s innings, which scored 207 runs off 467 balls, consisted of 16 fours and 3 sixes.

West Indies cricketer Tagnarin Chandrapaul made history on Monday by scoring his maiden Test century in the first match against Zimbabwe. Tagenerin reached the three-figure mark on Day 3 of the tournament in Bulawayo. The 26-year-old didn’t stop there, converting his unbeaten century into an unbeaten double-century as West Indies’ first innings score of 447/6 was decided to end the innings. With the double century, Tagenerin became the second father-son duo to score a double century in Test cricket, joining his father Shivanarin Chandrapaul.

Tagenerin’s innings featured 16 fours and 3 sixes as he scored 207 runs off 467 balls and finished with a strike rate of 44.32. No other father-son duo has scored double centuries in Test cricket. Shivnarine has scored two double centuries in the Test format. One each against South Africa and Bangladesh. He finished with an unbeaten 203 on both occasions. He has a total of 30 Test centuries to his name, including his maiden century against India in 1997.

Tagenerin has also added his name to the elite list of father-son duos who have scored centuries in Test cricket. Tagenarine has only played two matches in his short career against the Zimbabwe team he is currently with. He has scored 160 runs including one half-century at an average of 40.00. In 53 first-class matches he has played, he has scored 3004 runs with 6 centuries and 12 half-centuries at an average of 35.76.

ICC Team to Visit Sri Lanka Amid Cricket Administration Shake-Up

Published

on

By

A delegation from the International Cricket Council (ICC), including a senior representative linked to the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), is scheduled to arrive in Sri Lanka this weekend as attention grows over recent changes to the country’s cricket administration.

According to India’s Press Trust of India (PTI), ICC Deputy Chairman Imran Khwaja is expected in Colombo on Friday night, with another top ICC official who also serves in a leading capacity within the BCCI due to arrive on Saturday.

The visit comes in the wake of the Sri Lankan government’s decision to appoint an interim committee to manage the affairs of Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) following the resignation of its leadership.

Sports Minister Sunil Kumara Gamage confirmed during a televised interview that discussions with ICC representatives are expected to take place in the coming days regarding the future direction of cricket administration in the country.

The newly appointed nine-member interim body was established on April 29 after SLC President Shammi Silva and members of the Executive Committee stepped down from office.
Government officials say the temporary panel will be responsible for overseeing day-to-day cricket operations, introducing administrative reforms, and preparing the groundwork for fresh elections within Sri Lanka Cricket.

The ICC visit is expected to focus on governance issues, the transition process, and the stability of cricket administration during the interim period.

RCB Bring in Gleeson After Thushara Exit; CSK Add Kuldip as Injury Cover

Published

on

By

Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) have roped in experienced England pacer Richard Gleeson as a replacement for Sri Lankan fast bowler Nuwan Thushara ahead of the IPL 2026 Knockouts.

Thushara was unable to join the Bengaluru franchise after failing to secure a No-Objection Certificate (NOC) from Sri Lanka Cricket. The board reportedly withheld approval because the pacer did not meet the required fitness benchmarks set by the national setup.

RCB have signed Gleeson for INR 1.6 crore. The 38-year-old seamer brings previous IPL experience, having represented both Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians in recent seasons. Gleeson featured in two matches for Chennai in 2024 and made a single appearance for Mumbai in the 2025 campaign. He has also represented England in nine T20 Internationals.

Thushara, who was bought by RCB for the same amount in 2025, played one game during the franchise’s championship-winning run last season. Despite being retained for IPL 2026, his participation was blocked after the NOC issue emerged.

The Sri Lankan quick had initially taken legal action against the cricket board regarding the matter, but later withdrew the case and issued a written apology. Court documents reportedly indicated that Thushara had considered stepping away from international cricket, although no final decision on his future has yet been confirmed.

Meanwhile, Chennai Super Kings have announced Indian pacer Kuldip Yadav as a replacement for injured left-arm fast bowler Khaleel Ahmed.

Khaleel’s season was cut short after he suffered a right quadricep injury during Chennai’s clash against Kolkata Knight Riders. Before the setback, he had claimed two wickets in five appearances while maintaining an economy rate of 8.67.

Kuldip, a right-arm pacer, previously represented Rajasthan Royals in the IPL, making three appearances across the 2021 and 2023 seasons. Chennai have secured his services for INR 30 lakh.
