Russel Arnold expressed his shock after Chamari Athapaththu could not find a team in the first round of the Women's Premier League (WPL) auction. Meanwhile, Danielle Wyatt was thrilled after being picked by the UP Warriorz for WPL 2024. Irfan Pathan congratulated the East Delhi Premier League for giving a platform to talented cricketers and also lauded former India teammate Gautam Gambhir, who conceived the idea.

Aaron Finch wrote on Twitter that he loves watching Ravi Shastri on Fox Cricket. Ian Bishop spoke highly of West Indies pacer Shamar Joseph, who recently picked up a five-wicket haul for the 'A' team against South Africa 'A'.

Check out all the above updates and several more here:

Pleasing to see a young fast bowler Shamar Joseph getting a five wicket haul for West Indies ‘A’ in South Africa. He is a great story of resilience and rise from obscurity.

Talked about my eye injury in yesterday’s live show. Since the story surfaced, thought it’s best if I exactly explain what happened. Thanks for all your concern and love, always. 🙏🏻✨
