Former England cricketer Neil Fairbrother cried after Afghanistan knocked them out of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. In a virtual knockout match, Afghanistan beat England by eight runs in Lahore on Wednesday to register their second victory against England in an ICC 50-over event. After the match, legendary Pakistan cricketer Wasim Akram texted Fairbrother, and he replied, “I wept”.

Akram said he had to remind his “good friend” that its was just a game and Afghanistan defeating England in Pakistani conditions was always on the cards.

“The way they are playing, the cricket-loving people of England must be quite upset. I just messaged my dear friend Neil Fairbrother, he literally told me ‘I wept’. I told him, ‘hang on buddy, it is just a game and it was always on the cards’,” Akram said on Ten Sports show ‘Dressing Room’.

Akram and Fairbrother go back a long way. They both shared the dressing room for a long time in the English County side, Lancashire. Fairbrother, a stylish left-handed batter, played 10 Tests and 75 ODIs for England. He was an absolute legend at the domestic level, playing a whopping 366 first-class matches, scoring more than 20000 runs that included 47 centuries.

I swear I have seen for the first time ever in my 20y career and got to know that English players seen crying 😢 for the very first time after losing a cricket 🏏 match in their decades history.#AfghanPower #AFGvENG #ChampionsTrophy2025 pic.twitter.com/Pe28xDiAqu

Buttler’s future as England captain:

A listless England, barring Joe Root who smashed a century, suffered an eight-run defeat against the Afghans. Chasing 326 for victory, England were bundled out for 317 with Afghanistan batter Ibrahim Zadran smashing a superb 177 and pacer Azmatullah Omarzai grabbing a five-wicket haul.

“I don’t want to say any emotional statements right now. But I think for myself and the other guys at the top, we should consider all possibilities,” said Buttler in the post-match presentation on his future as the England white-ball skipper.

POWER CORRIDORS

Former Vice President Venkaiah Naidu commended Power Corridors as a commendable news magazine, affirming that it not only upholds Media Dharma but also fulfills its societal obligations. Power Corridors, as its name implies, delves into realpolitik—examining the essence of influential circles, unraveling the intricacies of political maneuvers, and exploring the pulse of the state’s affairs. However, it transcends mere power dynamics, encompassing a broader spectrum of issues beyond the confines of Delhi’s elite circles.

For PC, which is published by the Interactive Forum on Indian Economy, not only highlights the issues of the day but also throws up what ought to be the subjects that the country should be debating about. It reports about the plans, strategies, and agendas of politicians and others; it also sets the agenda for the nation.
