Much like the man in the photo, we've been sent into retirement a little earlier than we hoped. 😆 We're sad to announce that the Melbourne #AUSvIND Test will be our last for Flashscore. Some of our team will continue to produce cricket previews for the website and remain active on socials, so please don't unfollow us! From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for all of your company over the last six years and your well wishes as we bow out this weekend. We hope to keep chatting everything cricket with you in 2025.

Did I read this right - Better toilets in stadiums will increase IPL TV viewership?! What next - more urinals will help crack the USA market?

Highest WIN % for men to have captained at least 39 Tests: Waugh (72%) Ponting (62%) S Smith (60%) Kohli (59%) STOKES (56%) Highest LOSS % for men to have captained at least 39 Tests: Brathwaite (56%) Lara (55%) Pataudi (48%) Root (41%) Atherton (39%) STOKES (38%) #Ashes

39-year-old Neil Wagner has bowed out from NZ red ball cricket by winning the #PlunketShield for the first time in his career. He contributed 52 runs from 22 balls without being dismissed AND match figures of 8/86!

Sri Lanka: "At least we won't get terrorised by a very fast left arm opening bowler now that Starc is gone" Spencer Johnson: #SLvAUS

Marcus Stoinis has announced an immediate retirement from ODI cricket despite being selected to play in the Champions Trophy. It means that Australia will need as many as four replacements following the withdrawal of Mitch Marsh as well as potentially Cummins and Hazlewood.

Our sincere congratulations go out to @IamDimuth, who has decided to make his 100th Test match his last. Let's hope he can add a 17th (and even an 18th!) century to his final numbers, which will leave him amongst the greats of Sri Lanka for many years to come.

The best thing now would be for the Aussie women to win first and for the men's match to be shown on the big screen for the girls to watch the boys take their final wicket still on the field #Ashes #SLvAUS

Can Australia make Sri Lanka follow on a second time just to make it interesting? #SLvAUS

Alyssa Healy and Mitchell Starc are playing their 287th international matches at the same time 🇦🇺 💛💚 #Ashes #SLvAUS #AUSvENG

Australia's 489-run first innings lead is the 11th largest in men's Tests. #SLvAUS

Steve Smith has confirmed that Travis Head will open the batting alongside Usman Khawaja in Galle. He was unclear on whether sorry Sam Konstas will occupy a middle order position or be omitted entirely #SLvAUS

Pakistan have finished at the bottom of a World Test Championship for the first time, whilst the West Indies finished eighth in all three editions. What's the solution for Pakistan's Test team? #PAKvWI

I fear if either of these batters dare to charge down the pitch they may fall down a crevice and never be seen again #PAKvWI

Pakistan's required run rate for this 4th innings chase is 0.86rpo... better get a wriggle on, lads #PAKvWI

Kraigg Brathwaite is scoring at more than double his career strike rate (84 to 40) in Multan. Looks like he has taken the lesson from his tailenders #PAKvWI

#OnThisDay Jasprit Bumrah made his international debut nine years ago!

Michael Clarke will be inducted into the Cricket Australia Hall of Fame. Clarke played 394 games for Australia, captaining the team 139 times, scoring more than 17,000 international runs with 28 Test centuries.

England have named their playing XI for tomorrow's T20I and have promised the four remaining squad members will appear later in the series. #INDvENG
