The aftermath of a Bangladesh Premier League game saw an ugly exchange play out between England cricketer Alex Hales and former Bangladesh captain Tamim Iqbal.

Bangladesh legend Tamim Iqbal and former England cricketer Alex Hales got into a heated altercation during a Bangladesh Premier League 2024-25 match on January 9.

While the world cricket was sending heartfelt messages to Alex Hales on his retirement, a fake account on his name put a farewell post taking a jibe at India.

Alex Hales, who made his international debut against India in August 2011 in a T20I at Manchester, represented England in 11 Tests, 70 One-Day Internationals and 75 T20Is.

With RCB chasing 201 against KKR, Virat Kohli fought a lone battle, scoring 54 off 37 deliveries.

On the second ball of the 8th over of Desert Vipers' innings, Colin Munro hit a full toss ball from Samit Patel towards long-on where Kieron Pollard was stationed. The MI Emirates captain timed his jump beautifully to grab a one-handed stunner.

According to a report, England batter Alex Hales has been reprimanded by the Cricket Discipline Commission (CDC) over an old picture of him wearing a "blackface".

India batter Suryakumar Yadav has retained his top position in the ICC men's T20I batting rankings issued on Wednesday, following his stellar performance in the just-concluded T20 World Cup in Australia

Hales joins compatriot Sam Billings and Australian Test and ODI captain to miss the next season of IPL. This is a big loss for KKR, who would have expected these three players to be crucial members of the squad.

The ICC on Monday named their most valuable team of the recently-concluded ICC Men's T20 World Cup. Two Indians have been named and they are none other than Virat Kohli and Suryakumar Yadav.
