Cricket News sort by Marcus Peter Stoinis

Sri Lanka lost the warm-up game against Australia. Even so, Lasith Malinga was seen teaching the art of slow bowling to Marcus Stoinis.

To begin with, let's understand why the cricketing world is so fascinated by all-rounders. In layman terms, you have a wicket-keeper who bats a bit and you have five batsmen and five bowlers. In effect, you have six people who can bat and five people who can bowl as their primary skill, out of the 11 players in the team. Now, if a couple of the batsmen can bowl a bit and a couple of bowlers can bat a bit, it gives immense balance to the side as the captain then has more options at his disposal.

Marcus Stoinis has been among the few bright spots for Australia in the series.
