Australian cricketers Travis Head, Marnus Labuschagne, Mitchell Marsh, Pat Cummins, Usman Khawaja and Josh Hazlewood went through a funny lie detector test. During the test, all the cricketers were asked some funny questions and a blue light on the buzzer would go up if the answer is correct. However, a wrong answer would see the a red light go up on the buzzer with the respective player getting a bit of electric shock. The players were asked several questions related to their personal lives, and during that they also spilled beans about several incidents related to another star Australian cricketer Glenn Maxwell.

Travis Head was asked if he drank more than 35 beers after Australia’s 2023 ODI World Cup win. The star batter replied with a “no”, but got the electric shock. “It’s a lie,” said one of the two hosts during the show.

During the funny interaction, Labuschagne was also asked about the correct pronounciation of his name.

“Is the current Australian team has a better environment without David Warner?” was the question to Khawaja. He replied with a “no”, but the red light lit up.

Notably, Maxwell missed his side’s 2023 Cricket World Cup match against England after meeting a freak golf cart accident. As per reports, Maxwell slipped and fell off the back of the cart, suffering a head injury which saw him being dropped out of Australia’s playing XI vs England.

“Do you think that was a cover-up when Glenn Maxwell fell off a golf cart,” asked one of the hosts from Khawaja.

“No! Because I was there. I saw him fall off the cart,” said Khawaja but he got the shock, which as per the game rules was a lie.

Meanwhile, Mitchell Marsh revealed that Maxwell went to Turkey to get a new set of teeth.

Australia fast-bowler Josh Hazlewood has conceded the hosts’ are itching to clinch a Border-Gavaskar Trophy series win at home as that’s the only one box which is left to be ticked off by them. After beating India 2-0 in the 2014/15 series, Australia have endured a drought of winning the prestigious trophy at home. In the absence of Steve Smith and David Warner due to ball-tampering bans, Australia lost to India in the 2018/19 series, followed by sensationally losing the 2020/21 series 2-1, despite bowling the visitors out for 36 in the second innings at Adelaide.

“There are quite a few players who have never beaten India in a Test series. It’s quite astounding to say that. That’s one we need to tick off, definitely, in particular at home – we should pretty much win every series here at home.”

“That last series we obviously bowled them out for 36 in Adelaide and we thought here we go, (we are) back at home (and) confident on these grounds. People say we played India B in that last Test, but they can sometimes be stronger than the best team. They’ve got unbelievable depth in all formats and we are starting to see that now,” said Hazlewood to ESPNcricinfo.

Hazlewood, who will be part of Australia’s upcoming T20I and ODI tour of the United Kingdom, has also an ambition to play the 2025 World Test Championship final at Lord’s in June after missing last year’s final, where the side beat India at The Oval to claim the title.

“It’s always in the background, we have the table up (to see) where we are sitting and what we need to tick off. For me, it’s a big one because I didn’t get to play the last one in England so that’s a burning one for me,” the pacer said.

It has been a dismal run for Virat Kohli in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024 and it got worse for the Indian cricket team star batter as he was dismissed for a duck during the Super 8 match against Australia on Monday. Kohli miscued a shot off Josh Hazlewood and Tim David completed an easy catch to end his stay at the crease. This was the second duck for Virat in this year’s competition after he was dismissed for a golden duck during the group stage match against United States. The star batter joined former pacer Ashish Nehra as the second Indian batter ever to score two ducks in a single edition of the T20 World Cup. Nehra had two ducks to his name during the 2010 edition of the T20 World Cup.

Coming to the match, India defeated Australia by 24 runs to book their spot in the T20 World Cup 2024 semifinals. Batting first, India rode an explosive knock from captain Rohit Sharma to post a big total of 205/5. In reply, Indian bowlers restricted Australia 181/7 in 20 overs to clinch the victory.

“Satisfying. We know the opposition and the threat they bring. As a team we did well, kept doing the things we needed to do. Gives us good confidence as a team. 200 is a good score but when you are playing here with wind being a big factor, anything can happen,” India captain Rohit Sharma said.

“But I think we used to conditions really well, and it was about individuals doing their job. If was about getting wickets at the right time. (On Kuldeep) We know the strength he has, but we need to use him when necessary. In New York, there were seamer friendly wickets.”

“He had to miss out but we knew he had a big role to play out here. (On semi-final) We don’t want to do anything different, play the same way and understand what each person has to do.”

“Play freely and not think too much on what’s lying ahead. Not think about the opposition. We have been doing it consistently, just need to continue. (On playing England in semi) It will be a nice match, nothing changes for us as a team,” he added.
