West indies odi: Cricket News & Match Updates

West Indies ODI: New Zealand left-arm spinner Jayden Lennox enjoyed a memorable breakthrough series against the West Indies, finishing with 14 wickets to guide the Black Caps to a 3-2 ODI series victory while matching one of the best bowling returns by a spinner in a bilateral men’s ODI series.

Lennox, who was named Player of the Series, claimed 14 wickets across the five matches, equalling Sri Lanka’s Akila Dananjaya for the 10th-highest wicket haul by a spinner in a bilateral ODI series. His tally surpassed the best returns achieved in a single bilateral ODI series by legendary spinners Shane Warne, Anil Kumble and Shahid Afridi, all of whom picked up 13 wickets.

The 31-year-old reached the milestone in just his third bilateral ODI series after making his international debut against India earlier this year. India’s Amit Mishra holds the record with 18 wickets in a bilateral ODI series, followed by Kuldeep Yadav (17), while Afghanistan’s Rashid Khan and India’s Yuzvendra Chahal have taken 16 wickets in a series.   Read More...
