About Sports
Cricket first, and unapologetically. The reference spine of this section is the tournament record: every IPL season and its runners-up, all thirteen ICC Cricket World Cups, and the complete T20 World Cup list, each kept current as tournaments finish.
Around that sits argument rather than news – whether Test cricket is being kept alive or kept on life support, and whether India should run a domestic T10 league. American sport appears too, mostly as the same kind of question: what makes a career like Tom Brady’s possible, and who the greatest baseball players really were.
It is not a results service and does not try to be. Match reports age badly; tournament records and arguments do not.
