Cricket Today has been ranked as the no.1 sports magazine and is the 9th most read English publication.

***After a poor batting performance cost them the first Test at Birmingham, an absolutely horrible and unpardonable batting display in the second Test at Lord’s resulted in a humiliating innings defeat for the visitors. While winning and losing is a part of the sport, what has really been shocking is the lack of application and utter disregard for the format shown by the Indian batsmen. A lot was expected from Dinesh Karthik from the England versus India Test series. The player got an essential chance to show his mettle and cement a place in the side but he has failed in the first two Tests. Karthik has struggled against the in-swingers especially. England bowlers have been smart enough to continue bowling against him in this area, and the batsman has struggled to get going. Enjoy the action packed edition of Cricket Today.***
