[ad_1] Gautam Gambhir attended the Press Conference ahead of the 3rd test between India and New Zealand. Subhayan Chakraborty in Mumbai Despite the poor showing of India’s batters, Gautam Gambhir, the head coach, refused to pin the blame on certain individuals while accepting that the entire squad was hurt after losing their first Test series at home since 2012. India head into the third Test against New Zealand at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai bidding to avoid a clean sweep, while also aiming for a crucial win in the context of the World Test Championship (WTC). “I’m not going to sugarcoat this,” Gambhir told reporters in Mumbai on the eve of the third Test. “Obviously, it’s hurting. And it’s good that it’s hurting because it should hurt. Every time you lose a game, be it at home or be it away from home, it should hurt. That hurt will make us better. Sometimes people say that it should not hurt. But it should hurt. “When you’re playing for your country, what’s wrong in being in that position? The more, especially for the youngsters, it’s hurting them, I’m sure they’re going to push themselves to keep getting better. Because that is exactly what we want them to be. Pushing themselves every day to be a better cricketer. And to do something special. Because if we have results like what we had in Kanpur, then we might as well have results like this. And take that hurt and keep moving forward.” With IPL retention deadline day being a focal point of discussion, players could be a bit distracted ahead of such a crucial Test. However, Gambhir was unfussed as he said the players are completely focussed on the Test match. “Doesn’t bother me one bit (IPL retention),” he said. “I think it’s about Indian cricket tomorrow, I think it’s about the Test match that’s coming up tomorrow.” Mitchell Santner wreaked havoc in Pune as he dismantled the Indian batting unit. In Mumbai, in 2021, New Zealand spinner Ajaz Patel had scalped a total of 14 wickets in what was a historic outing for him. When asked whether India’s batting quality against spin has diminished a bit in the recent times, the Indian head coach quipped: “Sometimes you have to give it to the opposition as well. I think Mitchell Santner was outstanding in the last game. But yes, we’ll keep working hard, we’ll keep getting better. Rohit Sharma, Gautam Gambhir, and Jasprit Bumrah for team India (PC: BCCI/X) “That’s about it. Guys are putting a lot of hard yards in the nets. Yes, ultimately, it’s the results that matter when you’re playing international cricket. But I don’t think that our skill against spin has actually gone down.” With the Mumbai Test being seen as a crucial one for India in the context of qualifying for the WTC Final, and with a marquee five-Test series against Australia coming up, is the qualification scenario playing in the minds of the Indian team management or players? “Simple, try and win,” said Gambhir. “I think as simple as it can get. More importantly, we should try and win this Test match so that we can go to Australia with a win under our belt. And more importantly, it’s another great opportunity for people to do something special for the country. I think we very well know that we represent 140 crore Indians. So, it’s another opportunity because very few people get this opportunity and honour to represent the country in Test cricket.” When asked about his opinion on Mumbai’s red-soil pitch, the former Indian opener said: “I think it looks a really good wicket. Obviously, it’s very difficult for anyone to judge how the wicket is going to behave unless the game starts on it and both the teams have batted on it. But I feel that it looks a decent wicket. And I’m sure that once the guys get in, they can actually make the most of it.” Gambhir, as India’s head coach, has had a rocky start to his stint, losing an ODI series in Sri Lanka before conceding the Test series against New Zealand at home. “I’ll be honest, I never expected a very easy run, because international cricket is never easy,” he said.

“And I believe that. I know that we lost in Sri Lanka, we’ve lost at home as well against New Zealand. It’s not the great place to be in. But all we can do is be absolutely honest to ourselves, keep working hard, keep working hard with the group and keep preparing them well and keep getting the results. Because ultimately, I think we want to try and win every game that we represent the country in.” The post Gautam Gambhir and Team India ‘hurt’ after series loss to New Zealand, but seek a turnaround in Mumbai appeared first on Sports News Portal | Latest Sports Articles | Revsports.

Known for their passionate fan base, star-studded line-ups, and thrilling performances, RCB’s journey through the IPL seasons has been a rollercoaster ride filled with highs and lows. Here’s a comprehensive look at RCB’s journey through the IPL seasons.

Stay updated on the RCB Team Players List for the IPL, with detailed squad information and the playing schedule, in our extensive guide RCB Team Players List.

2008: The Inaugural Season

RCB had a rocky start in the inaugural IPL season. Despite having legendary players like Rahul Dravid, Anil Kumble, and Jacques Kallis, they finished seventh in the eight-team tournament. The team struggled to find the right balance and consistency, winning only four out of 14 matches.

2009: Runners-Up

Under the captaincy of Anil Kumble, RCB made a remarkable turnaround in the 2009 season, which was held in South Africa due to the general elections in India. The team finished third in the league stage and reached the final, losing to Deccan Chargers by six runs. Ross Taylor and Manish Pandey were among the standout performers.

2010: Semi-Finalists

RCB continued their strong performance in 2010, finishing third in the league stage. They made it to the semi-finals but were defeated by the Mumbai Indians. The season saw Virat Kohli emerge as a key player for the team alongside star performers like Jacques Kallis and Robin Uthappa.

2011: Finalists

The 2011 season was another strong showing for RCB. Led by Daniel Vettori, and with the explosive Chris Gayle joining the squad, they finished top of the league table. Gayle’s incredible batting, including his 175* against Pune Warriors, was a highlight. However, they fell short in the final against Chennai Super Kings.

2017-2019: A Period of Struggle

The subsequent seasons were tough for RCB. In 2017, they finished last, managing only three wins. The 2018 season saw some improvement, but they still finished sixth. The 2019 season was another disappointment, with RCB finishing at the bottom of the table again. Despite having star players, the team struggled with consistency and balance.

2020: Return to Playoffs

The 2020 season, held in the UAE due to the COVID-19 pandemic, saw RCB making a comeback. They finished fourth in the league stage, reaching the playoffs for the first time since 2016. However, they were eliminated by Sunrisers Hyderabad in the Eliminator. Kohli, de Villiers, and young talent Devdutt Padikkal were standout performers.

2021: Consistent Performance

RCB had a strong 2021 season, finishing third in the league stage. They made it to the Eliminator but were knocked out by Kolkata Knight Riders. The season saw the emergence of Harshal Patel, who won the Purple Cap for being the highest wicket-taker. Glenn Maxwell also made a significant impact with his all-round performances.

2022: Playoffs Again

In 2022, RCB continued their consistent run, finishing fourth in the league stage. They reached the second qualifier but were eliminated by Rajasthan Royals. Faf du Plessis joined the team and made significant contributions, adding depth to the batting line-up alongside Kohli and de Villiers.

2023: Building for the Future

The 2023 season saw RCB focusing on building a strong core of young players while retaining their experienced stars. They finished fifth, narrowly missing out on the playoffs. The season highlighted the potential of new talents like Rajat Patidar and Shahbaz Ahmed, showing promise for the future.

2024: The Quest for the Title

In the 2024 season, RCB aims to build on its recent performances and make a strong bid for the IPL title. With a mix of experienced players and promising newcomers, the team has shown a renewed sense of determination and focus. Key players like Virat Kohli, Faf du Plessis, Glenn Maxwell, and young talents are expected to play crucial roles. Fans are hopeful that RCB’s quest for their maiden IPL title will finally come to fruition this year.

Conclusion

The journey of Royal Challengers Bangalore through the IPL seasons has been a mix of exhilarating highs and frustrating lows. Despite not having won the IPL title yet, RCB remains one of the most beloved franchises, known for their passionate fans and star-studded line-ups. With a strong core of players and a focus on building for the future, RCB’s quest for their maiden IPL title continues, keeping their fans hopeful and excited for future seasons.

The team that won the IPL after 10 years

In reference to Ajit Vijaykumar's report IPL 2024 team of the season: KKR players dominate after victorious campaign (May 27): The IPL cricket team Kolkata Knight Riders's victory – after winning in 2012 and 2014 – against Sunrisers Hyderabad was great to watch. Despite SRH's earlier matches and a good score, it was surprising how they failed to perform well in the final.

KKR also had a strong team under Shreyas Iyer and he proved his leadership mettle. Probably if SRH Skipper Pat Cummins chose to bowl things could have gone differently.Cricket is however also a game of luck and this time after a decade KKR won the trophy. They deserve it for their consistency. Kudos to Shreyas Iyer and his team on a great victory.

The Remarkable Cricket Journey of Bhuvneshwar Kumar

Bhuvneshwar Kumar, an Indian cricket sensation, has carved a unique niche for himself in the world of cricket with his impeccable swing bowling, unwavering determination, and remarkable journey from a small town in Uttar Pradesh to the international cricket arena. Born on February 5, 1990, in the town of Luhar in Uttar Pradesh, Bhuvneshwar Kumar's rise to prominence is nothing short of inspirational.

Early Life and Introduction to Cricket

Bhuvneshwar Kumar was born into a middle-class family with limited means. Cricket was not just a sport for him; it was a passion that burned brightly from a young age. Growing up in a cricket-loving nation like India, he was inspired by legendary cricketers like Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid, and Anil Kumble. His father, Kiran Pal Singh, recognized his talent and supported his dreams, despite the financial constraints.

Bhuvneshwar's journey in cricket began on the dusty grounds of Meerut, where he honed his skills as a medium-fast bowler. His ability to swing the ball both ways, coupled with his consistent line and length, made him stand out even in his early years. He caught the eye of local coaches and selectors, and it wasn't long before he made his way into the Uttar Pradesh Under-19 team.

Domestic Cricket Breakthrough

Bhuvneshwar Kumar's performances at the domestic level soon started turning heads. He made his debut for the Uttar Pradesh senior team during the 2007-2008 Ranji Trophy season. His ability to swing the ball and pick crucial wickets made him a valuable asset for his team. He continued to improve season after season, and his consistent performances earned him a spot in the Sunrisers Hyderabad squad in the Indian Premier League (IPL).

IPL Success and International Debut

Bhuvneshwar's stint with Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL brought him recognition on a global stage. His exceptional performances in the IPL, especially his ability to deliver crucial overs during the death, made him a favorite among fans and captains alike. His accuracy and ability to extract movement from the pitch made him a go-to bowler in pressure situations.

His consistent performances in the IPL earned him a call-up to the Indian national team. Bhuvneshwar Kumar made his international debut for India in a One Day International (ODI) against Pakistan in December 2012. His ability to swing the ball early and provide early breakthroughs was evident from the beginning. He quickly became a key player in the Indian bowling lineup.

Challenges and Injuries

While Bhuvneshwar Kumar's cricketing journey has been filled with remarkable highs, it hasn't been without its fair share of challenges. Injuries have been a constant companion on his journey. He has battled various injuries, including hamstring and back issues, which have sometimes sidelined him from crucial matches. However, his determination and work ethic have always helped him bounce back stronger.

World Cup Glory

One of the most memorable moments in Bhuvneshwar Kumar's career came during the 2019 ICC Cricket World Cup. He played a pivotal role in India's campaign, picking up crucial wickets and providing breakthroughs when the team needed them the most. His partnership with fellow fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah became a nightmare for opposition batsmen.

Bhuvneshwar's ability to swing the ball in English conditions made him a potent weapon in the Indian bowling attack. He finished the tournament as one of the highest wicket-takers for India and played a vital role in the team's journey to the semi-finals.
