Green Eyes, Red Ball, Cold-Blooded! Meet Scott Boland

Green Eyes, Red Ball, Cold-Blooded! Meet Scott Boland
Have you heard about the 6-feet-tall Australian pacer Scott Boland with big green eyes?

He's one of the most lethal fast bowlers in world cricket, yet always flies under the radar — a silent assassin for Australia. Despite being in the Test squad for the past five years, Boland has never been a regular part of the playing XI due to the presence of frontline seamers like Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, and Josh Hazlewood.

Since his debut, he hasn't received many opportunities or been a priority pick. Most of the time, Boland has played either as a replacement or a backup.

But whenever he grips the red ball in hand, he turns into a nightmare for batters, known for his deadly accuracy, consistent line and length, and mental toughness.
During the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024–25, Cricket Australia (CA) named him as a replacement for Josh Hazlewood. After Hazlewood’s injury, Indian fans and players looked relaxed, thinking the threat had lessened — but Boland proved them wrong. He single-handedly destroyed the Indian batting lineup and delivered a phenomenal performance for his team.
In fact, Boland is a big-match performer, always delivering at crucial moments — like the World Test Championship Final 2023 in England, where he shattered India’s hopes of winning the prestigious ICC tournament.

The Silent Warrior of No.3 – Cheteshwar Pujara Retires from International Cricket From a 13-year-long career span, Cheteshwar Pujara played with patience, calmness, composure, clinical precision, and an old-school classical batting style. Absorbing the pressure with his unyielding approach towards the game, he has now decided to pack his bags from International Cricket. One of the greatest No.3 batsmen for India, the man carried billions of hopes as a saviour and carried forward the legacy of Rahul Dravid’s “The Wall” in Test cricket. He served as a red-ball specialist batter in his whole career with his bottom-hand technique and nonchalant toughness. Pujara added 7,195 runs in 103 Test matches with an average of 43.60, where he hammered 19 relentless tons and 35 noteworthy half-centuries. Meanwhile, he faced 16,217 balls in his career which clearly shows his temperament and approach in the Test format. With his customary shots and typical dogged batting style, ...

  Sir Ravindra, the silent assassin - Jadeja! On 24th May, when the BCCI officials announced the Indian squad for England 2025, everyone on social media was creating a buzz and raising a question mark on veteran all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja's selection for the Test team, and also making stuff, creating memes that Rohit, Virat, and Ashwin are retired and now it's Jadeja's turn due to his ageing. 36-year-old young Sir Jadeja! Always the silent assassin with his contribution towards the nation. No PR! No drama! No controversies! No reaction to criticism! No unnecessary aggression! One and only dedication toward his game. Moreover, he never gave statements with words, he always proved his worth with bat, ball, and most importantly, his rocket arm. In the ongoing 'Tendulkar - Anderson Trophy' in England, Sir Ravindra Jadeja is invariably on the mark at every tense stage. When nothing goes right for India, everyone takes a deep breath an...
