I completely agree that Abhi would hate Travis a bit because of his knock in that match we won't talk about because it never happened! 🥰 (Can't you tell I'm an India fan? 🤣) And it would start out as cute bantering hate to love. I also feel like while Abhi is in his phase of disliking Travis, he keeps talking to him or about him in Hindi which Trav can't understand 🤣 Like Trav comes down to breakfast and sits next to Abhishek, wishes him a good morning like any friendly person will do. Abhishek responds by rolling his eyes and muttering "aa gayi museebat!" Which translated to English means "Here comes trouble! 😒" When they're appointed the opening pair for SRH, Abhi spends the entire day muttering something like "Pata nahi pichle janam mein konse paap kiye the jo iss janam mein iss aadmi ke saath paala pad gaya." (translation: i don't know what sins I commited in my past life that in this life, I encountered this man. 😒" And he keeps addressing Travis by derogatory Hindi words, like he never calls him by name, he just calls him stuff like "gadha!" (donkey) or "kutta!" (dog) or even some of the more insulting hindi expletives like chutiya (fucker) 😅😅 And when Abhishek realizes that Travis is flirting with him, he calls him "tharki buddha!" (perverted old man, yk because travis is actually around 8 years older than Abhi 😂😂😂)
So eventually, Travis recruits one of his Indian teammates at SRH, maybe Nitish Kumar Rana or Washington Sundar, to help him woo Abhi. NKR and Washy teach him Hindi, and then Trav asks Abhi out in slow, broken Hindi "mein... tumhe... bahut... pasand... karta hoon." (I really like you.) And that's when Abhi finally melts and agrees to go out on a date with him. Although NKR and Washy definitely give Travis bad translations before as a prank, they tell him that the phrase "teri behen ka lavda" translates to "I like you" in Hindi. It actually translates to "your sister's dick" 🤭 Travis ends up with a black eye when he tells that to Abhishek. Pat can't stop cackling.
So finally after they get into an official relationship, Abhi takes Travis out on dates to enjoy Indian street food. He treats him to golgappe, kulfi, samosa, vadapav, ice gola and what not, and he laughs uproariously when some of the items turn out to be too spicy for Travis and leave the Australian coughing like anything 😅🤣
Also, Travis' rant partner would be Patty who's just so DONE listening to how pretty Abhishek's eyes are, or how nice his smile is. Meanwhile Abhishek's rant partner is Shubman Gill, who he's been best mates with since they were 14. Abhi keeps complaining to Shub about how Travis is always flirting with him and how he can't believe the audacity of that bloke. Shub is also DONE because he can see that Abhi is in love with Travis, but his stubborn oblivious idiot of a best friend refuses to see the fact that's staring him in the face.
omg LOVE!!! i don't know if it's the same in hindi but in english 'trouble' is a nickname that can be used affectionately or even flirtatiously. so i can imagine trouble becoming trav's nickname for abhi after someone translates his snide comments for travis
pat would definitely be his rant partner and he would get sick of it so quickly. he'd be pairing them up together at training to try and force them to hurry up and sort their shit out 😭

[ad_1] India head coach Gautam Gambhir conducting his first training session (Photo: BCCI) At the start of the West Test in Perth, Gautam Gambhir was in the firing line. He was culprit No. 1 for the loss against New Zealand, and was accused of favouritism for having included players like Harshit Rana in the team. It was said that Gautam preferred Harshit because of his Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) connection. The inclusion of Nitish Kumar Reddy was also questioned, and failure in Perth would have increased the pressure on Gambhir manifold. But all of that is now past. Gambhir, yet again, is a great coach, if social media is to be believed. Harshit’s selection was a masterstroke, and so was that of Reddy. Playing KL Rahul at the top was the best call of all, and Indian cricket is in safe hands. The truth is that one win doesn���t make Gambhir a great coach, just as one series loss didn’t make him the worst either. This is what needs to improve about our fandom. We behave with a certain immaturity, and it is either about elevating someone onto a pedestal or dragging him down into the gutter. Again, the truth is that we need to give Gambhir time. Perth was a sensational victory, but it is just one win in a five-Test series. The day-night Test in Adelaide will ask a lot of questions of the Indian team, and not many of us have forgotten the 36 all out against the pink ball in December 2020. India don’t play too many pink-ball Tests and it will be quite a steep ask to get used to it in 10 days. Yet again, Gambhir will be tested. Again, a defeat will make him a poor choice as coach! Gautam Gambhir with Rohit Sharma (PC: X) In reality, Gambhir is about fight. Perth was clear evidence, especially after being skittled for 150 on the opening day. Whatever happens in Adelaide, one thing is for certain. In this five-match series, the Indians will fight till the very end. And that’s what will define Gambhir’s tenure. And this team. And that’s all we can ask for from the coach and his boys. While no credit is enough for captain Jasprit Bumrah, surely now India’s best-ever fast bowler, it is also fair to say that Gambhir and the coaching unit all played a part. They have made a serious case to be given time before we judge them. The 10 away Tests –five in Australia and five in England – in the space of 10 months is the toughest possible challenge for any coach, and Gambhir is someone who will face it head on. Maybe that’s why he was the right choice for the job. On the last tour, after the disaster under lights in Adelaide, Ravi Shastri’s motivational powers and relentless positivity played a huge part in India’s incredible comeback. Gambhir may not be as much of a natural in front of the microphone, but he’s cut from the same cloth. He will make the tough calls, and own them. And that’s what we want to see from a head coach in Australia.

And among the many rivalries that have emerged in the IPL over the years, the KKR and Punjab rivalry has been one of the most intense and thrilling. The KKR and Punjab rivalry dates back to the very first edition of the IPL in 2008. Both teams have a rich history in the tournament and have always been considered strong contenders for the title. KKR is a two-time champion, having won the IPL in 2012 and 2014, while Punjab has yet to win the trophy but has come close on a few occasions. One of the main reasons behind the intense rivalry between KKR and Punjab is the quality of cricket that both teams play. Both teams have some of the most talented players in the world, and their matches are always closely contested. The rivalry between the two teams has also been fueled by some dramatic and memorable moments on the field. Over the years, the KKR and Punjab rivalry has produced some of the most exciting matches in the IPL. Whether it’s the big-hitting of Chris Gayle or the spin wizardry of Sunil Narine, both teams have always brought their A-game to the field. And with both teams boasting some of the most passionate and loyal fans in the IPL, the rivalry between KKR and Punjab is always a highly anticipated affair. Looking ahead to the upcoming IPL season, both KKR and Punjab will be looking to get the better of each other once again. While KKR will be hoping to add a third trophy to their cabinet, Punjab will be eager to break their trophy drought and finally lift the IPL trophy. With the rivalry between the two teams stronger than ever, fans can expect another thrilling chapter in the KKR and Punjab rivalry in the IPL. In conclusion, the KKR and Punjab rivalry in the IPL has been one of the most intense and exciting rivalries in the history of the tournament. With both teams boasting some of the best players in the world, their matches are always closely contested, and their rivalry has produced some of the most memorable moments in the IPL. As we look ahead to the upcoming season, fans can expect another thrilling chapter in the KKR and Punjab rivalry in the IPL. Here’s a look at the Top Player Battles to watch out for in this IPL clash between PBKS and KKR : KL Rahul vs Pat Cummins IPL 2021 PBKS vs KKR Player Battle – KL Rahul vs Pat Cummins Punjab skipper KL Rahul won the orange cap in the last season. In this season also, he is performing consistently, but then also his team’s aggregate performance is not up to the mark. The only concern with Rahul’s batting, when the team was losing despite him performing well, was his conservative play. Pat Cummins will be challenging him in the match against KKR. Despite his expensive price, Cummins has not been able to prove his performance in bowling yet. He is not getting wickets according to his high status. His bowling is also not as economical as it should be. He is getting smashed for sixes by many players. For us, the winner will be KL Rahul in this player battle. Andre Russell vs Mohammad Shami IPL 2021 PBKS vs KKR Player Battle – Andre Russell vs Mohammad Shami Andre Russell, one of the most destructive hitter in IPL. Everyone is aware of power hitting skills of De Rus. In the match against CSK also, he has announced his arrival by his quick half century. Although, he was not able to win the match for his team, but he definitely have a hard fight. He will be facing the Indian fast bowler, Mohammad Shami, who has the ability to bowl quick. He must be confident of performing well having bowled brilliantly in the last few games. Shami will surely look to test Russell with the short ball. Shami can also try his lethal yorker against the West Indian to catch him off-guard. For us, the winner will be Andre Russell in this player battle. Chris Gayle vs Varun Chakravarthy IPL 2021 PBKS vs KKR Player Battle – Chris Gayle vs Varun Chakravarthy Chris Gayle, the most entertaining and hard hitting batsman in the history of IPL. Gayle holds the record of highest individual score in an IPL innings. However he has aged a little bit more but his dedication to play is still at its peak. He is not showing any signs of slowing down. KKR will definitely use spinner Varun Chakravarthy to create some troubles for the PBKS batsman. Varun has the ability to take wickets with his slow and spin bowling and has tricked many big batsmen with his bowling. He can hold Gayle at a low score. For us, the winner will be Varun Chakravarthy in this player battle. Shubman Gill vs Arshdeep Singh IPL 2021 PBKS vs KKR Player Battle -Shubman Gill vs Arshdeep Singh It is clearly visible that Shubman Gill is struggling to score runs for KKR. One of the reasons behind the poor performance of KKR is failure of its opening pair and especially that of Gill. He has not scored a single good knock in IPL 2021 till now. He will be challenged by Arshdeep Singh in the match against PBKS. Shubman Gill and Arshdeep Singh were both part of Indian team for U-19 World Cup. Unlike Gill, the medium pacer has a good season up till now. He is bowling well and KL Rahul is also putting trust on him. It will be a worthy watching clash if they will face each other in the match. For us, the winner will be Arshdeep Singh in this player battle.

The Most Wickets In IPL History
The 18th edition of India's largest cricketing event, the Indian Premier League (IPL), is scheduled to take place in 2025. Particularly in the bowling section, the rivalry has reached new heights as ten teams aim to win the coveted crown. Even though hitters frequently take center stage, bowlers in the game's shortest format still treasure the Purple Cap, which is given to the player who takes the most wickets in the tournament. Due to the IPL 2025 mega auction, the franchisees will be under more pressure for the next season. All eleven teams will try to restructure their rosters by adding new players and keeping some of their old players. One lingering uncertainty is the Impact Player rule, which caused debate in past seasons. Given how it can impact bowling plans, a number of teams and players have expressed worries about its possible continuation.
The Sought-After Purple Caps and Its Seekers
Even though there were a lot of runs made throughout the 2024 season and new batting records were established every other day, teams know that bowlers are frequently the ones who assist them in winning games. Despite carrying a hefty price tag, pacers Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins, who were the most expensive players in the last auction, generously returned the favor to their respective franchises. Promising bowlers like Mayank Yadav, Harshit Rana, and Vaibhav Arora rose to the top of the IPL 2024 rankings and might be serious candidates for the Purple Cap in the IPL 2025 schedule. They will, however, have fierce opposition from well-known players, such as Harshal Patel, the Purple Cap winner from the previous season, who took an outstanding 24 wickets. Besides, there will be more elite players competing in the Purple Cap race in 2025, making it more competitive.
Bowlers - A Necessary Asset For IPL Teams
The importance of bowlers in the IPL cannot be understated. Although each side has a strong batting order, the bowlers frequently tip the scales. Some teams in the IPL have struggled in the league due to a lack of bowling skills. However, the league's top teams, like the Chennai Super Kings (CSK), Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), and Mumbai Indians (MI), have established their dominance thanks to their pool of excellent bowlers. Even the Gujarat Titans (GT), the IPL's 2022 debutants, used their bowling arsenal to win a significant number of games. This suggests that in order for teams to succeed in the lucrative competition, bowlers are essential.
Yuzvendra Chahal - The Best of The Best
While we are on the subject of successful bowlers in IPL, how can we forget about the phenomenal Yuzvendra Chahal who is currently the highest wicket-taker in the history of IPL. With 205 wickets in 160 games, Yuzvendra Chahal holds the record for most wickets in IPL ever. He achieved this position after dismissing Nitish Rana, the captain of the Kolkata Knight Riders, in the 56th match of IPL 2023 between the Rajasthan Royals (RR) and KKR. The leg-spinner, who played for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) from 2014 to 2021, took 139 wickets at an economy rate of 7.58 in 113 games. He played for RR in 2022 and took 27 wickets in 17 games, earning him the Purple Cap. When the wrist spinner held onto a return catch from MI's Mohammad Nabi in the 2024 Indian Premier League, he broke the 200-wicket milestone.

[ad_1] Sanju Samson with Yashasvi Jaiswal and Riyan Parag in an event (PC: X) Rajasthan Royals went into the auction with a limited purse of Rs 41 crore. On expected lines, RR were cautious during the mega auction in terms of picking up players. They added 14 players to their roster. Jofra Archer, who has previously been one of the mainstays of RR’s attack, is back in the mix. The franchise has also added some punch to their spin-bowling stocks. RR also stumped everyone by picking up the 13-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi for Rs 1.10 crore. The young batter had recently cracked a quick-fire ton versus Australia U-19. Incidentally, they had retained six players before the auction – Sanju Samson, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Dhruv Jurel, Riyan Parag, Shimron Hetmyer and Sandeep Sharma. Hits: Nitish Rana – The southpaw, who has over 2600 runs in the IPL, could form an integral part of RR’s unit. The middle-order batter, however, hasn’t exactly been among the runs over the last few seasons. RR would still trust Nitish to provide heft to their batting line-up, comprising mainly Indian batters. Jofra Archer – The England speedster was in supreme form in the 2020 IPL, bagging 20 wickets. Unfortunately, since then, he has been plagued by elbow and back issues. At his very best, Archer has a mean bumper, alongside possessing the skills to move the ball and bowl yorkers and variations in the slog. Wanindu Hasaranga/Maheesh Theekshana – With RR picking the Sri Lankan duo, they have some firepower in the spin department. Both the spinners have enough variations in their arsenal and generally bowl quicker through the air. The kind of skills that could come in handy at their home ground. Tushar Deshpande/Fazalhaq Farooqi – RR have further strengthened their pace-bowling stocks by buying Deshpande and Farooqi. Deshpande is a wholehearted cricketer and Farooqi is basically RR’s replacement for Trent Boult. The skiddy left-arm pacer swings the bowl upfront. RR also bought the young South African paceman, Kwena Maphaka. Misses: RR perhaps needed one more established power-hitter down the order. It is true that Shimron Hetmyer can give it a mighty thump and has done rather well for the franchise. He also cracked a blistering 91 against St Kitts and Nevis Patriots recently in the CPL. But, somewhere, RR could have bought another finisher. Glenn Phillips was an option. Liam Livingstone also was in the auction list, but with their purse, it was always going to be tough for RR to bid for him. In that respect, RR could be looking towards Shubham Dubey, the left-hander, to showcase his pyrotechnics. Overall Rating – 7/10 RR IPL Squad: Tushar Deshpande, Shubham Dubey, Yudhvir Singh, Fazalhaq Farooqi, Vaibhav Suryavanshi, Kwena Maphaka, Kunal Rathore, Ashok Sharma, Sanju Samson, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Riyan Parag, Dhruv Jurel, Shimron Hetmyer, Sandeep Sharma, Jofra Archer, Maheesh Theekshana, Wanindu Hasaranga, Akash Madhwal, Kumar Kartikeya, Nitish Rana The post Some mystery spin and Jofra Archer – RR’s top picks at mega auction appeared first on Sports News Portal | Latest Sports Articles | Revsports.
