[ad_1] Angkrish Raghuvanshi. It was a proud moment for Angkrish Raghuvanshi as he made his Ranji Trophy debut for Mumbai, against Tripura, after being handed the coveted cap by team captain and iconic Indian batter Ajinkya Rahane. Though the 20-year-old scored 28 and 6 in Agartala, he would be looking to take bigger strides when he takes the field for the future games in the first-class circuit. Coming from the stable of Abhishek Nayar, the current India assistant coach, and Omkar Salvi, Raghuvanshi has already made his mark in the Indian Premier League, playing an impactful role for Kolkata Knight Riders’ title-winning side last season. The Delhi-born youngster, who amassed 278 runs in six innings in the 2022 Under-19 World Cup, had smashed a stellar 27-ball 54 against Delhi Capitals on his IPL debut. As Raghuvanshi, tipped as a prodigal talent, looks to make his mark in red-ball cricket, for the most successful team in the history of Ranji Trophy – Mumbai – the youngster sat for a freewheeling interview with RevSportz. He talked about his first-class debut, the pressure of playing in high-profile games, Abhishek Nayar and Gautam Gambhir’s impact, learning from Mitchell Starc and other senior players, bonding with Phil Salt, playing for KKR in front of a packed Eden Gardens and much more. Excerpts: How was the feeling of making your Ranji Trophy debut for Mumbai? Angkrish Raghuvanshi: Very proud feeling. Since I came to Mumbai when I was 12 years old, I have been only training and practicing to improve my game. It was dream come true to represent Mumbai in Ranji Trophy. When I got that cap, and that too from captain and legend Ajinkya Rahane, what could be a better feeling? When I got the cap, it was an overwhelming feeling. But when I went to ground, I was telling myself that it’s just another game. I have to win the match for the team. I have to put in the effort. You are just 20. How do you deal with the pressure? Raghuvanshi: The more I practice, and I can tell you my coach Abhishek Nayar has made me practice a lot, the more confidence I get that if I go to the game, I will do well. My goal, whether for Mumbai or for my club, or for my franchise, is always the same – what the team needs and how I can help the team win, that’s all I usually think about. It’s how I can help the team win. My goal for the Ranji Trophy season is that in every match, how can I contribute so that my team wins. You mentioned Abhishek Nayar. How did this bond start? Raghuvanshi: When I was 12 years old, I used to go to his (Abhishek Nayar’s) academy at Wilson College. So that’s when my relationship with him started. The tips he gave me, the things he taught me about the game and life, I found them very helpful. So, whenever I have a tough time or a good time, I share everything with him, and he helps me. Abhishek Nayar is known to be a hard taskmaster. What about his coaching style, especially with you? Raghuvanshi: I have undergone some tough training, but I think it was a blessing in disguise because the way he trained me in my childhood, whenever I went to the ground, it felt easy because of his ways of training. Sometimes while doing fitness, I told him stop, sir, stop it. Once he made us climb a 30-floor building through the stairs. He made us run from the 30-floor stairs of his building and said, if you don’t do it on time, you have to do it again. I felt that I was going to die. But I think because of his ways of training, my mental strength and cricket skills have increased. I thank him for that. Has such rigorous training helped your game? Raghuvanshi: Obviously, if you make your training hard, like he always tells me, every time you are practicing, get out of your comfort zone. I think if you keep doing that, repeating that, then you always have clarity and confidence in yourself that you can do tougher things. So, no matter who the bowler is or how fast he is bowling, how much the ball is turning, if you have that confidence that you can do hard things, it becomes easier for you.

Mumbai is a cricket-mad city, so is Kolkata. How was it to play in the City of Joy? Raghuvanshi: I had the best experience in my life in Kolkata, to play under such loving fans. I have very good memories of that city, I feel like all the fans were a family. They were backing us, supporting us, shouting for us, so I enjoyed it a lot. Angkrish Raghuvanshi with Abhishek Nayar. Source: X Abhishek Nayar was in that KKR dressing room, so was your Mumbai senior Shreyas Iyer. Did it help? Raghuvanshi: Very helpful. I feel that our dressing room was a very comfortable space. Whenever I wanted extra practice or wanted help with something in my game, I could ask without any hesitation. All the seniors and coaches would help me. I feel that when there is such a comfortable space, when you go to play a game, it helps. KKR last season was such a tight-knit group. Who did you bond the best with? Raghuvanshi: Phil Salt. I used to have a lot of fun with Phil Salt, the banter he used to bring during games. Even off the field with our football banters. The energy he used to bring, he used to keep the dressing room light and energetic. I felt very good with him. IPL is where talent meets opportunity. You get to learn from so many seniors. What was your biggest takeaway? Raghuvanshi: The biggest learning is the way they train, the way they carry themselves, their work ethic. After seeing all this, I felt that wow, if you want to become a legend like them, then you have to have a training and lifestyle like them. So, I learned all this from them. What about Mitchell Starc – the most expensive player in IPL history so far? Anything you learnt from him? Raghuvanshi: Yes! Keeping that focus is very important. I also went with the expectation that Mitchell Starc is the best bowler in the world, and when I saw his mannerisms, I understood why he is the best bowler in the world. His work ethic, the way he carries himself off the field, always thinking about his cricket, in the gym, mobility, nutrition, he used to practice with so much purpose. If I also want to become a legend like him in the future, then I will have to improve my work ethic. This is a very good lesson for me. If I want to become a legend, if I want to play with them, if I want to become better than them, then I will have to train harder than them. Gautam Gambhir played a huge role in KKR’s title-winning season. What sort of discussions did you have with him? Raghuvanshi: We, with Gautam sir, used to just talk about cricket, how can we win the next match, what are the weak points of the other team, how can we improve ourselves, so that we can defeat the other team. He used to tell us that whenever you go to play a match, think about how you can defeat the other team, and how you can keep your game at the best level. In his meetings, in his speeches, his intensity was always on this, to make your team win. Who is your cricketing idol? Raghuvanshi: My idol, growing up, it’s always been AB De Villiers, but now I like Shubman Gill’s batting. Your playing style does resemble Gill. Why him as your current idol? Raghuvanshi: This is a good question, because when I was a kid, Shubman used to come to Mumbai to practice in the KKR academy. When I used to see him, I used to think, ‘Wow! this guy has so much time against the fast bowlers. If I can emulate his batting, I can try to bat like him. I used to think, I have to bat like him, and if it was Shubman, what would he do?’ So, I think those similarities are visible because of this. Even now, you all know, he is one of the top batsmen in India. Hopefully, one day, I can play with him. He is my idol because I watched him so much growing up. I know how hard he works, and I would like to be like him. What is your dream? Raghuvanshi: To win trophies for India. Also Read: Can Virat Kohli turn it around in Australia?

Narendra Pahuja: The Prominent Cricket Fan and Expert

Finding someone who can strike a balance between job and personal interests is pleasant in the modern world when, typically, one comes first. One such person is Narendra Pahuja, an enthusiastic cricket player and successful businessperson. Renowned for his creative commercial endeavours at Decode Air Bar in Gurugram, Pahuja is also acknowledged for his relentless passion for cricket. This blog explores his path as a cricket fan, his commercial successes, and how he maintains his love of the game despite a hectic schedule.

Early Life and Cricket Passion

Growing up in the capital city, he was constantly surrounded by the active Indian cricket scene. Like many young lads, he dreamed of being big in cricket and spent many hours playing the game with pals in the neighbourhood. For him, cricket was more than a hobby; it was a passion driving his dreams and a life-learning tool.

Pahuja was regarded as his neighbourhood's "cricket enthusiast" when he was a young lad. Whether it was local events or international contests, his evident passion for the game was shown in his performance and following every cricket match. An early love of cricket set the groundwork for a lifetime obsession he now fuels.

Business Enterprises and Cricket

Pahuja's professional path brought him into the corporate sphere, but his love of cricket never changed. Having owned the well-known Decode Air Bar in Gurugram, he has become somewhat famous in the hotel business. Renowned for its original open-air idea and superb interior design, Decode Air Bar captures Pahuja's meticulous attention to detail and skill for crafting unforgettable events.

Pahuja never lost sight of his love of cricket, even if he excelled in business. He credits his commercial expertise much in part for the discipline, teamwork, and strategic thinking demanded in cricket. His entrepreneurial path has been much enhanced by the knowledge gained on the cricket pitch, including the need for tenacity and maintaining focus under pressure.

Managing the Stunners Cricket Team

Narendra Pahuja not only enjoys watching cricket but also plays the game enthusiastically. He proudly captains his cricket team, the "Stunners." The team has won several games under his direction, highlighting his strategic thinking and leadership abilities. Beyond only playing, Pahuja is very committed to mentoring new athletes and advancing the game in his neighbourhood.

Leading the Stunners lets Pahuja remain close to the game he enjoys and promotes friendship and teamwork. Frequent match and practice session organisation helps him and his team stay in shape. This regular involvement in cricket keeps his love of the game alive and provides a welcome diversion from his hectic business calendar.

Juggling Personal and Financial Interests

Narendra Pahuja's capacity to reconcile his personal and professional objectives is among his most commendable features. While running a profitable company like Decode Air Bar calls for a lot of time and effort, Pahuja prioritises physical activity and following his love of cricket. 

Daily activities clearly show Pahuja's commitment to fitness. No matter how busy he gets, he sets aside time for regular exercises and cricket practice sessions. This dedication to being active and fit improves his performance in business and sports, benefiting his health.

Motivating the Young People

Many young people find inspiration in Narendra Pahuja's path as a successful entrepreneur and ardent cricket lover. He is convinced that one can succeed significantly in one's career without compromising personal interests. Pahuja shows that pursuing several hobbies and achieving them is possible by following his love of cricket alongside his commercial activities.

Often interacting with the young, Pahuja inspires them to discover and pursue their interests. He underlines the need to stay active, disciplined, and have a good mindset. His narrative is evidence of the belief that commitment and hard effort can produce excellent results in business as much as in athletics.

Future Approaches and Legacy

Looking ahead, Narendra Pahuja wants to keep expanding his commercial ventures while actively participating in cricket. Decode Air Bar intends to expand to other locations, introducing its exceptional hospitality experience to a larger audience. He also wants to plan more cricket competitions and events so young players can present their abilities.

Pahuja's legacy is about his moral standards and influence on others, not only his commercial success or cricket prowess. People are motivated to pursue their aspirations, put in great effort, and strike a balance between their personal and professional lives by his narrative. Pahuja shows by his behaviour that a life motivated by passion is successful and fulfilling.

Last Thought

One can effectively combine career successes with personal passions by looking at Narendra Pahuja. His love for cricket and his sense of business make him a unique person who still inspires many. Pahuja is committed, strategic thinker, and passionate in the boardroom or on the cricket pitch. His path inspires everyone to fully follow our interests and aim for perfection in all spheres of our lives.

The Tridents won the 2014 CPL under the leadership of Kieron Pollard, who is now captain at the Trinbago Knight Riders. In 2019 the Tridents ended the unbeaten run of the Guyana Amazon Warriors in the final to win the CPL under the captaincy of Jason Holder. The Tridents failed to defend their title, however, finishing fifth in the 2020 edition with just three wins in 10 games.The 2021 season of the CPL will be played in St Kitts & Nevis between August 26 and September 15. While Holder will remain the Barbados captain, Kumar Sangakkara, appointed as the Royals' director of cricket in the IPL, will also oversee CPL operations.

Top 3 Dangerous Teams in IPL 2020

In front of the thirteenth version of the Indian Premier League, we investigate all the sides and attempt to pick the most hazardous group, in view of the group piece, execution, and names we could wonder about.

In the previous twelve seasons, Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings have stepped their position usually. While the Chennai-based establishment has an immaculate record with regards to breaking through to the end of the season games, group Mumbai has lifted the prize a record multiple times. We should burrow somewhat more profound and check whether we could name one group that merits the pined for prize this time around.

Top 3 Dangerous Teams in IPL 2020:

Royal Challengers Bangalore

Royal Challengers Bangalore have played three finals up until this point yet their prize bureau is as yet vacant. One of the most unique sides on paper, RCB have Virat Kohli, AB de Villiers, and Aaron Finch in their positions. One of only a handful scarcely any sides that still can't seem to have a settled XI, group Bangalore's blowing away has been a worry the years.

They have held Dale Steyn and gotten Chris Morris, Isuru Udana, and Kane Richardson. The turn pair of Yuzvendra Chahal and Washington Sundar can keep the best of players in unlimited oversight. On the off chance that RCB get their blend directly in the underlying games, they could end up being a perilous side in the competition.

Mumbai Indians

Rohit Sharma and Co. snuck past Chennai Super Kings in a year ago's conclusive, fixing a one-run win. This time around, Mumbai Indians will be anxious to guard their title. They have roped in Chris Lynn, who could be wrecking on his day. In Nathan Coulter Nile, group Mumbai have a powerful back-up for veteran Lasith Malinga.

Surya Kumar Yadav is an underestimated star who has on numerous occasions demonstrated his grit in the money rich association. All-rounder Hardik Pandya offers group Mumbai a chance in the arm. The ostentatious cricketer is a match-champ and can turn matches in his group's kindness in crunch circumstances.

Jasprit Bumrah at his best can be a bad dream for the resistance hitters. Group Mumbai may lose some rest over the nonappearance of a rumored name in the turn office. Having said that, Krunal Pandya and Rahul Chahar can be amazing and in Jayant Yadav, they have a spinner who could end up being convenient in turn well disposed conditions.

Delhi Capitals

With a scramble of youth in the side, Delhi Capitals can unleash devastation in the current year's release. Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant, and Prithvi Shaw are a portion of the skilled youths on the list.

The option of Ajinkya Rahane adds significantly greater steadiness to the crew. Group Delhi has a strong southpaw in Shikhar Dhawan while any semblance of Marcus Stoinis, Shimron Hetmyer, and Jason Roy loan greater validity to the batting division.

All things considered, Kagiso Rabada is the main deadly imported product. A crotch injury may preclude him this season and if that occurs, the Capitals should fall back to Ishant Sharma as their movement lead. The onus to rescue the difficult situation will be on veteran spinners Amit Mishra and Ravi Ashwin and the couple will shape a powerful group of four with Axar Patel and Nepal's Sandeep Lamichhane.

Notwithstanding spending much on abilities abroad without precedent for some years, 5-time Indian premier league winner MI has neglected to distinguish the legitimate 11 and has frequently handled just a few worldwide players. While the hitters have been viable, the bowling mix has been a wellspring of concern. Lately, MI has encountered a series of misfortunes against the Delhi Capitals, Rajasthan Royals, Kolkata Knight Riders, Royal Challengers Bangalore, and Punjab Kings.

This exhibition will push the group’s administration to reconsider their methodology since one more misfortune could endanger their season finisher desires for the second year straight on the off chance that they get worse. Therefore, the crew set up for Saturday’s experience may be unique, with players, for example, Fabian Allen and Riley Meredith getting an opportunity to play. LSG, then again, began the season with a misfortune to individual novices Gujarat Titans however at that point went on a concise winning run, winning matches against the Chennai Super Kings, Sunrisers Hyderabad, and Delhi Capitals.

Be that as it may, in their latest appearance, LSG was crushed by RR in a firmly challenged match. Australian all-rounder Marcus Stoinis got back in the saddle with the bat, among different features. Accordingly, LSG is probably going to stay with a similar side except if there is a physical issue concern.

Shikhar Dhawan: IPL 2020: Believe I can turn whatever I touch into gold, Shikhar Dhawan | Cricket News

Shikhar Dhawan: IPL 2020: Believe I can turn whatever I touch into gold, Shikhar Dhawan | Cricket News

DUBAI: He started slowly in the 13th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL), but moving into the business end, Delhi Capitals‘ (DC) opener Shikhar Dhawan is sitting second on the run-scorers’ chart with 465 runs from 10 matches, including two back-to-back centuries, which is a first in the tournament’s history. POINTS TABLE | FIXTURES Speaking to ANI, Dhawan threw light on his scintillating form, the atmosphere in the DC dressing room, 10 years in international cricket and most importantly on the upcoming series against Australia. He started with a couple of 20s and is now the only batsman in IPL to have scored two consecutive centuries. Dhawan says he doesn’t like to react to outside noise.

“I like to stay happy, don’t like to take stress. Firstly what people say doesn’t reach my ears and I don’t wish to listen to what is being said and secondly, I love playing and it gives me joy. I know the hard work I have done and how fit I am and the preparations that I have done. I have full faith in me that whatever I touch, I will turn it into gold,” he smiled. Starting off slowly, Dhawan says he had a word with head coach Ricky Ponting who said that he was hitting the ball well and that is what is important. “Ricky bhai said that I was batting well and I knew I wanted to play a little fast. I had a discussion on that also with him. I was happy with the 20s and 30s because they were impactful. What matters in T20s is how important those 30 runs were. I thought I was playing the role of the opener. The moment I got fifties, I gained in confidence and then by God’s grace I scored the centuries,” he explained. Dhawan says numbers don’t matter to him to be honest. “If I keep thinking about scoring centuries, I will burden myself. My idea is to go out and give it my best shot. If I give it my best, the rest will follow. That also helps to keep me mentally light. Why should I add to my expectations? “Like, going into the first few games of the season, I didn’t have any fifty or anything, so 500 runs in the season looked a distant dream. But I have been scoring 500 over the last few seasons, so rather than using it as a pressure scenario, I looked at it positively and thought it is good if I achieve it, else I will try and do my best for the team. The idea is to keep it simple and be disciplined. Simple isn’t as simple as it sounds, you also need to be mentally strong,” he said.

The opener feels that the DC management has done a great job in ensuring that the team is a happy unit on and off the pitch. “When the team is doing well, it is a good sign and you have everyone pitching in. It is important for the team management to back the players as that brings in a sense of security, and I feel we have a great support staff and management and that has ensured we are a very happy unit. That is what you can see on the field and off it,” he said. Dhawan has also completed a decade in international cricket. Asked if he thought he would come this far when he started, the cricketer says that dreams keep changing and it has been a fun ride. “You know dreams change with time. When I started, thought will play U-16, then U-19, then India and so on. Luckily by God’s grace, my wishes have come true. Thought I had the potential and have tried to give it my best. My idea is that the day I leave, I shouldn’t have anything left to give,” he smiled. Commenting on the Australia series that follows, Dhawan said: “Will think about it when the time comes. 10-15 minutes are needed to think about it. When you are experienced, you have gone and done well, you have that confidence in you. I am confident I will go and do well there.” The pandemic has also created a scenario wherein players have to be in a bubble and follow strict protocols. Dhawan says the joyous mood in the DC camp has helped. “What a person thinks is what counts. If you look at it and think it is difficult, it will be. But I look at it and think I can do so many things and focus on my hobbies. I look to enjoy and while I love my family, I have been used to travelling from childhood. Just enjoy ourselves and wait for the match days,” he signed off.
