New Delhi, Jan 10 (Ians) Australia’s off-spin all-rounder Ashleigh Gardner on Tuesday claimed the Icc Women’s Player of the Month award for December 2022 after her contributions with bat and ball helped her team get to T20I series victory in India. Her performances also meant she now sits on top of Women’s T20I Player Rankings for all-rounders.

“I’m honoured to have been named Player of the Month for December, especially given there’s so many outstanding cricketers in the game at the moment. Our tour to India was an incredibly memorable one and it was pleasing to be able to come away...

The former Indian captain knows a thing or two about a terrific win, as he was part of the history-making Indian team which won the Cricket World Cup at the Lord’s Cricket Ground in 1983 under the leadership of Kapil Dev, a win which would change the face of cricket in the country.
It was a final which was an absolute thriller, with six goals scored in 120 minutes, a late fightback from France, not once but twice and then the penalty shoot-out which decided the title winner.
Nearly four decades back Gavaskar and his teammates were rank outsiders against the then high and mighty West Indies, but they pulled off one of the sensational wins in the low-scoring final over the Caribbean cricketers.
The win on Sunday was a thriller albeit on a football field.
The Mumbai-born ‘Little Master’ took sheer delight in the matches of the football showpiece event...
