This week's highlights (June 06-12, 2016)

Sarah Taylor is optimistic of playing cricket again after speaking for the first time about suffering from anxiety attacks.

The talented batsman-keeper is currently taking a break from the game and will miss England’s summer series with Pakistan.

Former All Whites captain Steve Sumner, cricketers Gary Troup and Barry Sinclair and volleyball coach Hugh McCutcheon are among sporting people honoured on Queen's Birthday.

The world looks up to him — (quite literally) when he takes on the field in green for his national side. After Mohammad Asif and Mohammad Aamer were suspended for 5-years due to spot fixing fiasco, Pakistan cricket team got the services of a 7-feet-11-inch, Mohammad Irfan, who is indeed the tallest bowler to play international cricket, at present.

Mohammad Amir is set to return to the land where his cricket career came crashing down 6 years ago. The left armer’s meteoric rise was arrested when he, along with his captain Salman Butt and bowling partner Mohammad Asif, were convicted of spot fixing in the Test matches against England.
