He told reporters the paramedic was a part of a SWAT team that had been called to a domestic situation at the home. Inside, an armed man had barricaded himself with his family, including seven children ranging in age from 2 to 15, Evans said. Adam Finseth, 40, a firefighter and paramedic for the city since 2019, also was killed. She and her husband peered out of their sunroom and saw squad cars and a phalanx of police officers. None of the relatives of the officers or the firefighter immediately returned phone messages from The Associated Press seeking comment.

"The thing is, Bazball is in test cricket. One day cricket's different and we've been playing different all the time," Moeen told reporters ahead of Thursday's match against the 1996 champions at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium. "We've been playing aggressive cricket throughout since 2015 and done it quite well. Probably the lack of that way of cricket has cost us a little bit in this tournament. "We haven't been playing that way in my opinion and we need to play that way without slogging the ball.

[1/6] Cricket - Ashes - Fifth Test - England v Australia - The Oval, London, Britain - July 29, 2023 England head coach Brendon McCullum during the warm up before the start of the day's play Action Images via Reuters/Andrew Boyers/File PhotoLONDON, Aug 1 (Reuters) - England coach Brendon McCullum said he was more than happy to share a beer with the Australia squad now that the Ashes series is over, having suggested after the second test that he wouldn't do so following a controversialincident. The series ended 2-2 after England won the final test at The Oval by 49 runs on Monday, so Australia retained the Ashes urn. "Yeah, we'll have a beer," McCullum said with a laugh when asked by reporters about his previous comments. "I can't imagine we'll be having a beer with them any time soon," McCullum told the BBC after the incident. "Ashes series have all these twists and turns and moments which people talk about and are able to remember them by, and that was certainly one of those," he said.

The dismissal triggered long and loud booing from the Lord's crowd and saw Australian players verbally abused by MCC members in the stadium's usually staid Long Room. With England eventually losing by 43 runs to trail 2-0 in the five-test series, McCullum made it clear the stumping had strained relations. 'NO SNEAKINESS'Disgruntled MCC members verbally abused Australia players as they walked through the pavilion at the lunch interval, prompting opener Usman Khawaja to remonstrate with several of them. You see Jonny (Bairstow) do it all the time, he did it on day one to David Warner, he did it in 2019 to Steve (Smith)," Cummins told reporters. England captain Ben Stokes was keen to move on from the incident but added he would not want to win in such a fashion at the end of an over.

CNN —Australia managed to steal victory from England’s in the first game of the 2023 Ashes series on Tuesday and take the first bragging rights in cricket’s biggest rivalry. Ryan Pierse/Getty ImagesCaptain fantasticUp against ‘Bazball’ stood Australia and a more traditional style of Test match cricket. “This is why the ‘Bazball’ mentality is so important because they are coming up against an incredibly good team,” Miller said after England’s loss. “These guys ripped England apart in the last Ashes 4-0 and England were lucky to lose 4-0. The second game of the five game series will begin on Wednesday, June 28 at the famous cricket ground Lord’s in London.

England made a first-day record 506 runs in 75 overs in the first test against Pakistan in Rawalpindi. "Every Ashes series gets the juices flowing but there's added excitement this time around," former England skipper Nasser Hussain told The Metro. "That's because of the brand and style of cricket this England side are playing. "I think England are marginal favourites just because Australia haven't won over here for such a long time but it's very hard to call. All I know is there won't be too many draws," former England captain Michael Atherton said.

NEW DELHI, May 2 (Reuters) - India ended Australia's 15-month reign as the number one test team in cricket on Tuesday ahead of the World Test Championship (WTC) final in June between the two sides. The annual update of the official rankings dropped the results from the 2019-20 season and reflects all series completed since May 2020. India are also the top-ranked T20 team ahead of world champions England. India and Australia face each other in the WTC final at the Oval on June 7.

☆ Wagner wills New Zealand to miracle one-run win over England
▼ + stars: | 2023-02-28 | by ( Ian Ransom | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +5 min

Feb 28 (Reuters) - New Zealand pulled off a remarkable one-run win over England on Tuesday as lionhearted paceman Neil Wagner's heroics saw the hosts become just the fourth side in test history to win a match after being asked to follow on. Wagner took four wickets and two crucial catches at Wellington's Basin Reserve, where the hosts recorded only the second one-run victory in test cricket following West Indies' famous 1993 win in Adelaide. Enter Wagner, who had bled more than eight runs an over in the third innings when England romped to a 267-run win in the series-opener at Mount Maunganui. "It's a special one this and we'll celebrate it well," said Wagner, who finished with 4-62 in the fourth innings. Over the home summer, England chased down fourth-innings targets above 250 in three successive tests to whitewash New Zealand.

"It's just a different pitch to bowl with in the lights," Broad told reporters. The England skipper's 31 included his 108th six to take him past his coach Brendon "Baz" McCullum as the most prolific scorer of the maximum in test cricket history. Wagner could have dismissed him on the next delivery but his miserable day continued when he caught the England skipper on the boundary only to fall over the rope and give Stokes his 109th test six. "If we can get a couple of partnerships together, we can make a fist of this total."

☆ New Zealand mount home defence against England's 'Bazball'
▼ + stars: | 2023-02-14 | by ( Ian Ransom | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +3 min

While New Zealand have not lost a test series at home to England since 2008, Stokes's men have little respect for the record books. If New Zealand have a sliver of hope it may lie in England's trouble with day-night tests. England have lost their last five under the lights and neither James Anderson nor Ollie Robinson have much love for the pink Kookaburra ball. England have not looked back since McCullum and Stokes took charge but the series will be a reminder of where it all began for the Anderson-Stuart Broad pace axis. They kept their spots for the third and final clash in Napier, which England won to seal the series 2-1.
