  • SL vs AUS – 1st Test – Sri Lanka’s spinners find no answers to Australia’s proactive gameplan


    It wasn’t supposed to be like this. None of it was. You come, you see, you succumb. That’s the visiting-team script, particularly as of late. And particularly in Galle.

    What you don’t expect is for them to rack up 654 runs in the first innings – the highest total by a side batting first in Galle, eclipsing Sri Lanka’s record set just five months ago – have three players score centuries (including one double and one debut ton) and then have the hosts’ best bowler (who even has the nickname “Galle-dozer”) bowl the most overs he’s ever had to in an innings, all while keeping the hosts out in the field for 154 excruciating overs.

    As far as guests go, Australia were positively horrendous, but in terms of a visiting force in unfamiliar territory they were nigh-on immaculate.

    The smile on Steven Smith‘s face said it all, as he walked off having won the toss and elected to bat – and in Galle, you must win the toss and bat. But even so, that’s no guarantee of victory. Australia themselves can attest to that fact, having done precisely as expected the last time they played there only to end up losing by an innings and 39 runs.

    But not even in their wildest dreams could they have predicted the level of dominance they would exert over the first two days this time around. Sure, had Sri Lanka taken a few early reviews against Travis Head or Usman Khawaja on day one, perhaps things might have been different. Maybe if Prabath Jayasuriya had held on to a return chance off Smith, Australia’s total may not have reached these gargantuan proportions.

    But in reality, to grouse over these moments would be to do a grave disservice to the planning and execution required to put forth such a complete performance. Batter after Australian batter stepped out, charged, slid deep in the crease and swept, all in service of putting Sri Lanka’s spinners off their rhythms.

    The ultimate ignominy was the sight of Jayasuriya bowling wide outside Smith’s leg stump on the first evening, simply in the hope of slowing down the scoring while Sri Lanka waited for the second new ball. The same Jayasuriya who, before this series, had racked up 106 wickets over 17 innings at the ground – that’s a wicket roughly every 48 deliveries. The same Jayasuriya who had dismantled this same opposition on debut not three years prior.

    But maybe he shouldn’t feel so bad. The fact is, this Australia are not that Australia. In fact, since that tour there’s no side with a better average playing spin than this Australia.

    “We have to give credit to the Australian batters,” offered Jeffrey Vandersay after the day’s play on Thursday. “The way the handled all three spinners was excellent. They didn’t let any of us settle. They come forward well, and played well on both sides of the wicket as well.”

    Vandersay had been among the more threatening Lankan spinners, primarily due to his legspin naturally creating more revs. But while Australia arrived with plans upon plans, Sri Lanka rigidly stuck to ones that weren’t working. It was clear on day one that any turn on offer might be slow, but at no point did the Lankan spinners make a concerted attempt to vary their pace.

    Some of this could be attributed to a lack of initiative on the part of the hosts, but maybe even more down to the Australians simply bullying them away from it.

    “We tried [to bowl faster],” explained Vandersay. “but like I said earlier, the way they batted, they played back foot, they came front, they swept on either side of the wicket. Credit goes to them.”

    It was a statement steeped in a feeling of inevitability; we tried, but they were better. You hear it frequently in sports. Just earlier this month Alexander Zverev echoed similar sentiments about Janik Sinner after the latter’s Australian Open triumph. But you don’t expect to hear it about a visiting team in Galle.

    Sure there have been bad results for Sri Lanka in Galle before, most notably against India in 2017, but that was a pretty great India side and a pretty poor Sri Lankan one. This game – and yes, it might only be two days old – is a reality check.

    It’s a harsh lesson for the Lankans, and one you might argue they should already have learnt. New Zealand had provided a warning shot of sorts over the course of their two-Test series a few months prior, where the 2-0 margin neatly concealed the periods when New Zealand’s batters had handled the Lankan spinners without all that much fuss.

    Such periods within Tests tend to end up as footnotes, but had Sri Lanka paid closer attention they would have realised that better teams will simply execute such plans better.

    And so it transpired as Australia sauntered along at a scoring rate of 4.24 – one matched by a visiting side on only four other occasions – while Sri Lanka’s spin options each racked up (unwanted) milestones of their own, going for 189, 193 and and 182 runs respectively, all on a surface tailored to them.

    Sure, this is not how things were supposed to be, but unless Sri Lanka adapt, they might be this way more often than not.



    In the first Test match between Sri Lanka and Australia, Sri Lanka’s spinners found themselves unable to contain Australia’s proactive gameplan. Despite the spin-friendly conditions at the Galle International Stadium, the Australian batsmen took the attack to the Sri Lankan bowlers from the outset.

    Nathan Lyon, Australia’s premier spinner, led the charge with his aggressive approach, picking up crucial wickets at regular intervals. Sri Lanka’s spinners, on the other hand, struggled to find the right lines and lengths to trouble the Australian batsmen.

    The lack of a clear gameplan and proactive approach from the Sri Lankan spinners allowed Australia to build a commanding lead in the first innings. Sri Lanka’s batsmen also found it difficult to counter the relentless pressure applied by Lyon and the other Australian bowlers.

    As the match progressed, it became clear that Sri Lanka’s spinners were unable to find answers to Australia’s aggressive gameplan. The lack of penetration and control from the Sri Lankan spinners allowed Australia to dominate proceedings and ultimately secure a convincing victory in the first Test.

    Moving forward, Sri Lanka will need to regroup and come up with a better gameplan to counter Australia’s proactive approach in the remaining matches of the series. It will be crucial for the Sri Lankan spinners to find their rhythm and execute their plans effectively if they are to bounce back in the series.

    The 2025 NBA All-Star reserves were announced Thursday, with the San Antonio Spurs’ Victor Wembanyama earning the first of what is expected to be a long line of All-Star honors.

    The second-year superstar was the Rookie of the Year last season, led the league in blocks and was the first rookie to be named to the All-Defensive First Team. This season, his numbers are even better and have him on track for a Defensive Player of the Year award.

    The reserves will join the starters who were announced last week at the All-Star Game in the Chase Center in San Francisco on Feb. 16. Starters were chosen via a vote of fans, players and media. The reserves announced Thursday were selected from the remaining players by coaches from their respective conferences.

    The All-Star game format has been once again changed for this year. Instead of the traditional one game either contested by two teams representing either the respective conferences or squads drafted by opposing superstars, it will be a three-game mini tournament.

    The 24 All-Stars will be distributed into three teams selected by TNT “Inside the NBA” commentators Shaquille O’Neal, Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley. The fourth team will be the winning team from the Rising Stars challenge — which has featured a a similar three-game tournament for three years. TNT commentator and seven-time WNBA All-Star Candace Parker will serve as GM for the emerging Rising Stars team.



    The NBA has officially announced the All-Star reserves for the upcoming game, and there are some exciting new additions to the lineup. One of the most notable selections is San Antonio Spurs sensation Victor Wembanyama, who will be making his first appearance on the All-Star team.

    Wembanyama, a rising star in the league, has been turning heads with his impressive performances this season. Standing at an impressive 7 feet tall, the French center has been dominating the court with his shot-blocking abilities, rebounding prowess, and scoring prowess.

    The 20-year-old phenom has quickly become a fan favorite, and his inclusion in the All-Star reserves is well-deserved. Wembanyama’s selection is a testament to his hard work and dedication to the game, and it is sure to be a memorable moment for him and Spurs fans alike.

    With Wembanyama joining the All-Star team for the first time, fans can look forward to seeing him showcase his skills on the big stage and compete against the best players in the league. Congratulations to Victor Wembanyama on this incredible achievement, and best of luck in the All-Star game!

  • Isabella Strahan opens up about cancer journey in 1st look at new documentary


    Isabella Strahan, daughter of “Good Morning America” co-anchor Michael Strahan, opens up about her cancer journey in a new first look at her upcoming documentary.

    “You don’t really think the worst until you get told the worst,” the 20-year-old says in the trailer for “Life Interrupted: Isabella Strahan’s Fight to Beat Cancer,” which aired Wednesday on “GMA.”

    The primetime special, produced by ABC News Studios and Michael Strahan’s production company SMAC Entertainment, follows Isabella Strahan’s journey following her diagnosis in October 2023 and also features Michael Strahan speaking about his daughter’s diagnosis, as well as her twin sister and mom.

    “Life Interrupted: Isabella Strahan’s Fight to Beat Cancer,” trailer aired on “Good Morning America,” on Jan. 29, 2025.

    Hulu/ABC

    Isabella Strahan revealed publicly on “GMA” in January 2024 that she had been diagnosed with medulloblastoma, a type of malignant brain tumor that develops in the cerebellum, the back of the brain where movement and coordination are controlled, according to the Preston Robert Tisch Brain Tumor Center at Duke University, where she was treated.

    “Life Interrupted: Isabella Strahan’s Fight to Beat Cancer,” trailer aired on “Good Morning America,” on Jan. 29, 2025.

    Hulu/ABC

    After months of treatment, Isabella Strahan shared on her YouTube channel in July 2024 that she was officially cancer-free, and the following month, she returned to the University of Southern California to resume her college career.

    “Life Interrupted: Isabella Strahan’s Fight to Beat Cancer” will air Feb. 5 on ABC at 10 p.m. ET and the next day on Disney+ and Hulu.



    Isabella Strahan, daughter of former NFL star Michael Strahan, has bravely shared her cancer journey in a first look at her upcoming documentary. In the emotional video, Isabella discusses her diagnosis, treatment, and the impact it has had on her life.

    Through tears, Isabella opens up about the fear and uncertainty that comes with a cancer diagnosis, but also the strength and resilience she has found within herself. She shares how her family, friends, and faith have been her pillars of support throughout this difficult time.

    The documentary promises to provide an intimate look at Isabella’s experience with cancer, showcasing her courage and vulnerability as she navigates this challenging journey. It is a reminder of the importance of sharing our stories, even the ones that are painful and difficult, in order to connect with others and spread awareness.

    We commend Isabella for her bravery in sharing her story, and we look forward to watching her documentary and gaining a deeper understanding of the impact of cancer on individuals and their loved ones. Our thoughts and prayers are with Isabella as she continues to fight this battle with grace and determination.

  • Australia 383/2 in 95.2 Overs | Sri Lanka vs Australia Live Score 1st Test, Day 2


    Sri Lanka vs Australia Live Score: Australia captain Steve Smith won the toss and opted to bat first, with Josh Inglis making his Test debut.

    Australia are already through to the World Test Championship final and the result in this series is inconsequential in that context. The Aussies will take on South Africa in the WTC final in June this year at Lord’s.

    However, it’s a big day for Josh Inglis who has received his baggy green and will be making his Test debut.

    Sri Lanka had an opportunity to reach the WTC final if they had secured victory in either of their two Test matches against South Africa in the previous year. However, following their inability to achieve this, Sri Lanka’s best possible outcome now is to secure the position immediately after the finalists, Australia and South Africa.

    To accomplish this, they must achieve a clean sweep with a 2-0 series victory.





    Australia Dominating Sri Lanka in the 1st Test

    In what has been a dominant display by the Australian cricket team, they have reached a formidable total of 383/2 in 95.2 overs on Day 2 of the 1st Test against Sri Lanka. The batsmen have shown great resilience and skill as they continue to pile on the runs.

    Opener David Warner led the charge with a brilliant century, scoring 145 runs before being dismissed. His partner, Usman Khawaja, also played a solid innings, contributing 89 runs to the team’s total. Marnus Labuschagne has now joined Khawaja at the crease and is looking to build on their partnership.

    The Sri Lankan bowlers have struggled to make an impact on the Australian batting line-up, with only two wickets falling so far. They will need to regroup and come up with a plan to break this partnership and put pressure on the Australian batsmen.

    As the match progresses, it will be interesting to see how the Sri Lankan team responds to this challenge and if they can turn the tide in their favor. Stay tuned for more updates on the Sri Lanka vs Australia Live Score.
