CPL 2025 Karima Gore scored an unbeaten 64 in his team’s win © Getty Antigua and Barbuda Falcons opened their account in CPL 2025 with a tight win over Barbados Royals in Antigua on Saturday (August 16).

England spinner Shoaib Bashir has been damned with faint praise by Nathan Lyon but still remains a big admirer of his Ashes rival Shoaib Bashir has said he is unfazed at Nathan Lyon’s lukewarm assessment of him, despite England’s first-choice spinner being an admirer of his Australian rival for many years. With 562 wickets in 139 Tests, Lyon has been one of the standard bearers for his generation and is poised to be Australia’s frontline spinner for this summer’s blockbuster Ashes against England. The 37-year-old is well-known for stoking the pre-Ashes flames and suggested a fortnight ago that Jack Leach…
