Opener Shikhar Dhawan (77*) and captain Kane Williamson (36*) knitted an unbeaten 120-run stand for the second wicket to power Sunrisers Hyderabad to an emphatic nine-wicket win against Rajasthan Royals in Match No. 4 of IPL 2018 on Monday.

England has now not won a Test series away from home since 2016 when it beat South Africa 2-1 in South Africa.

The 27-year old Kiwi batsman has replaced Australia's David Warner who stood down from the leadership role after being caught in the controversial ball-tampering row in Cape Town Test against South Africa.

Williamson expressed sympathy and understanding for Warner and Smith who, he said, were paying heavily for a single lapse in judgement.

After being banned by Cricket Australia and BCCI over ball-tampering saga, Sunrisers Hyderabad will miss the services of dynamic all-rounder David Warner in the upcoming IPL 2018. Here we take a look at the probable candidates who could replace him.

New Zealand defeated England by an innings and 49 runs in the first Test to go 1-0 up in the two-match series.

Root had batted more than three hours for his 51 to rally England's resistance in the face of that heavy deficit but his dismissal on the brink of stumps on day 4 swung the match back in New Zealand's favour.

After an eventful first day on which England was bowled out for only 58, the first day-night Test match in New Zealand has effectively come to a soggy halt.

Williamson demonstrated his immense talent and the great promise of his relatively young Test career when he achieved his 18th century at 27 years of age and in his 64th Test.

Williamson previously shared the tie with Martin Crowe and his current teammate Ross Taylor with the record of 17 Test centuries.

Kiwi pacers - Trent Boult took a career-best 6/32 and Tim Southee took 4/25 in the first day-night Test played in New Zealand to jointly bowl out England for 58 in 20.4 overs on day 1.

Kane Williamson made an amazing dive to claim a breath-taking catch during the 1st Test against England at Eden Park, Auckland. Take a look.

Bairstow posted his century with eight fours and six sixes and reached 104 from 60 balls as he helped the visitors clinch a nail-biting series 3-2.

Williamson tried everything but the odds were against him on a pitch which did not favor attacking stroke play.

Stokes signaled his return to form after a five-month layoff with an unbeaten 63 as England surpassed New Zealand's total of 223 with more than 12 overs remaining.

The Kiwi skipper said it was a tough series as the two teams played good competitive cricket but it was disappointing to lose it at the finish.

Williamson accepts that the Kiwis have no excuses for their defeat to India and that they could have played better.

Last year too, New Zealand had faltered when it mattered the most, losing the five-match series in India 2-3.

With this result, India equalised the three-match ODI series. In the first match, India were defeated by the visitors by six wickets in Mumbai.

Incidentally, the 24-year-old Baroda cricketer had made his ODI debut against the Kiwis at Dharamsala when they visited last year and his career graph has been on an upswing since then.
