As things stand, the visitors are leading by 143 runs, with one wicket standing. Their No. 10 and 11 are at the crease. By realistic estimates, India will have a target of around 160 to win. On paper, that’s doesn’t appear to be a Herculean task. This very team, in the ongoing series, made 462 and 245 in the second innings. In comparison, the projected target looks gettable.

Litton Das and Rishabh Pant experienced a difficult moment during the first Test match between India and Bangladesh in Chennai. India was struggling at 34/3, with Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, and Viral Kohli back in the pavilion. Yashasvi Jaiswal and Pant were attempting to form a collaboration.

Taskin Ahmed produced a full delivery in the 16th over, which Jaiswal smashed toward mid-on. Pant was going for a single when the ball swerved off his leg, allowing him to finish the run.

Litton Das was not thrilled with this and spoke with Pant about his displeasure. Many people talked about the incident on Twitter as it garnered attention on social media.

Najmul Hossain Shanto, the captain of Bangladesh, won the toss and chose to bowl first on the dry Chennai field. The choice proved advantageous as Rohit Sharma was removed in the sixth over. India's problems got worse when Shubman Gill was out without adding a run, leaving the team at 28/2.

Virat Kohli then came in with hopes of stabilizing the innings, but Hasan Mahmud soon dismissed him for a low score. It was left to Pant and Jaiswal to reconstruct the innings.

By the time lunch arrived, India had bounced back. Pant scored 33 off 44 balls and Jaiswal 37 off 62 balls. They formed a 50-run partnership while looking at ease in the middle.

Afghanistan National Cricket Team Vs. India National Cricket Team Timeline

There was a lot of debate and tension as the third Twenty20 International between India and Afghanistan ended. There were questions because it wasn't clear whether Rohit Sharma was "retired out" or "retired hurt" during the first super-over. If it were the first one, Sharma wouldn't have been able to bat again, but he did, which suggests a clever move based on the rules' lack of clarity. The game was fascinating, and the regular match ended in a tie at 212. Rohit's excellent hundred, coming after two ducks in the earlier games, was the game's high point. India returned from a dangerous 22 for four thanks to his heroics and a record fifth-wicket combination. This set up a nail-biting finish. Afghanistan, on the other hand, didn't give up and made it to a super over. Let's dive deep into the Afghanistan National Cricket Team vs. India National Cricket Team Timeline.

"Love To Look At Things In Positive Manner": Sanju Samson Ahead Of ICC T20 WC 2024 Opener

Ahead of their opener against Ireland in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024, India wicketkeeper-batter Sanju Samson said that he positively looks at things while reflecting on failures and successes in his career.

Samson, who made his international debut in 2014 in a T20I match, has had ups and downs, having played just 25 T20Is and 16 ODIs for India over the last decade.

His T20 stats have been disappointing as he has scored just 374 runs at an average of 18.70 with one half-century. a strike rate of 133.09 and the best score of 77.

Samson has made his way into the T20 WC squad after a career-best Indian Premier League (IPL) which helped take Rajasthan Royals (RR) to the playoffs. He scored 531 runs at an average of 48.27 and a strike rate of 153.46, with five half-centuries. His best score was 86*.

The Kerala-born cricketer asserted that at the time when a cricketer is young and successful, he tries to skip a few lessons.

"I love to look at things in a more positive manner. If it's a failure or setback, you learn through it. When you are young and successful, you skip a few lessons. I am blessed with my talent, which comes naturally to me as a batter" Samson said in a video posted by BCCI.

The 29-year-old further stated that right from the moment he arrived in the United States, he had taken out all the things regarding Indian Premier which is in his mind.

"Right from the moment I landed here, IPL has been away from my mind. I tell myself that I am somewhere where people dream of going. Then I was like, what else do I need to do? Mentally I did not have to motivate myself. Things happen automatically. When you meet Rohit and Virat, you get inspired and there is no looking back. How can Sanju help India win more games, what it is like to be a WC player for India? I am very grateful for the support wherever I go," the wicketkeeper added.

In the end, Samson said that he loves to change and adapt according to the conditions.

"The biggest lesson as a cricketer and human is that the change is constant. You cannot say that this is the only way to play. I love to change and adapt as per conditions. You can't be the same Sanju Samson," the right-hand batter concluded.

India will start their T20 World Cup campaign on June 5 against Ireland at the newly constructed Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York.

The blockbuster clash between India and Pakistan will take place on June 9. India will later play tournament co-hosts USA (June 12) and Canada (June 15) to wrap up their Group A matches.

In the tournament, India will be aiming to end their ICC trophy drought, having last won the ICC Champions Trophy in 2013. Since then, India has reached the 50-over World Cup final in 2023, semifinal in 2015 and 2019, the title clash of the ICC World Test Championship in 2021 and 2023, T20 WC final in 2014, semifinals in 2016 and 2022 but failed to secure a big ICC trophy.

India squad: Rohit Sharma (C), Hardik Pandya (VC), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant (WK), Sanju Samson (WK), Shivam Dube, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal, Arshdeep Singh, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohd. SirajReserves: Shubman Gill, Rinku Singh, Khaleel Ahmed and Avesh Khan.

IPL 2024: Once He Starts Facing More Balls, He Will Score Lot Of Runs, Broad Reflects On Buttler s Lean Patch

Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Former England cricketer Stuart Broad shared insights on Rajasthan Royals opener Jos Buttler's form in the ongoing IPL season, suggesting that once the wicket-keeper batter begins facing more deliveries, he will accumulate a higher run tally. Buttler, who had a stellar performance during the 2022 IPL season, where he amassed 863 runs featuring four centuries, struggled to find his rhythm in the 2024 tournament. His initial three games yielded modest scores of 11, 11, and 13, indicating a lacklustre start to the season. Acknowledging Buttler's recent lean patch since the 50-over World Cup in India and his struggles with the leadership of England team, Broad expressed optimism about the 33-year-old wicketkeeper batter's fresh approach in IPL. "He's been in a bit of a lean patch since the 50-over World Cup in India. He struggled with the leadership of the England team and appeared physically and emotionally tired. However, I believe he's coming into this IPL refreshed. Although he hasn't quite found his form in this tournament yet, he's been dismissed twice by some pretty good bowling," Broad told official broadcaster Star Sports. Broad anticipates that IPL 2024 could be the platform for Buttler to shine, especially given his strong partnership with fellow opener Yashasvi Jaiswal, potentially propelling the Rajasthan Royals into the playoffs contention. "I think this will be the tournament where he plays well. He has a great relationship with Jaiswal at the top of the order, and if both of them fire, Rajasthan Royals will certainly make the playoffs, if not challenge for the trophy. So, I think we need to be patient with him. Once he starts facing a lot of balls, he's going to score a lot of runs in this tournament," he added. Rajasthan are currently second in the points table with three wins in as many as matches. They will play host to Royal Challengers Bengaluru in their next match on Saturday at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium. Read the full article

[daddynews247]

Worries Still Regard Shreyas Iyer’s Short Ball Issues

Shreyas Iyer might find it challenging to completely alter his approach at the age of over thirty, given his established muscle memory.

Shreyas Iyer arrived for an optional training session and immediately strolled outside the Newlands Stadium for throwdowns, just before the start of the second Test in Cape Town. Along with batting instructor Vikram Rathour, the two throwdown gurus Nuwan Senaviratne, a southpaw side-armer, and Raghavendra were putting on a show from eighteen yards away.

The intention was to prepare the showy Mumbaikar for short balls, which have plagued him in all forms of cricket since his debut. A few minutes into the workout, he launched one mean, short throwdown from eighteen yards into the body, which kicked up from length. The reduced distance traveled meant that there were more than 150 clicks.

The patch of flesh between his upper and lower abdomen was struck by the bat because it did not descend quickly enough.

He was groaning in pain and flung his bat. He remained in a squat, struggling to breathe, until the physiotherapist and other staff members arrived to see how he was doing.

The problem was not only technical but also psychological because Iyer didn’t appear at all at ease, but the Kolkata Knight Riders captain had no rivals because there wasn’t a good middle order reserve hitter in the lineup.

After six knockout games in SENA countries so far, his scores were as follows: 15 and 19 in Birmingham, 31 and 6 in Centurion, and 0 and 4 not out in Cape Town. It is currently less than 40 on his test average, down from around 50.

Iyer can undoubtedly be considered a master against spinners, and he should have no trouble confronting Chris Woakes or James Anderson to deliveries that are below knee roll.

However, when December 2024–25 rolls around on Australian tracks, Iyer’s problems will undoubtedly get worse if he doesn’t make a drastic technical shift in his game with appropriate head balance and perhaps a cheekier stance.

However, he is almost thirty years old and has developed muscle memory, so it might be challenging to turn his game around.

When a bouncer was bowled at Mohinder Amarnath’s right shoulder in the 1982–1983 season, he would take it on the body and hook it imperiously with his left shoulder. This was part of his slightly chest-on stance.

Iyer will have to blaze his own trail, but that’s easier said than done.

Iyer is a player whose main method of play is with his hands; his footwork is not very noticeable. He therefore consistently plays from the back foot, even on deliveries where he should be on the front foot, on bouncey tracks because he is mentally prepared for a short ball.

His feet are freezing because he believes he will only ever be given small balls to eat.

“My role is to instill trust in them. Regarding Iyer, Shubman Gill, and Yashasvi Jaiswal—three of the greatest batsmen in Indian history—who found it difficult to deal with bounce, skipper Rohit Sharma remarked, “KL, Rohit, and Kohli, we have all learned from travelling.”

“They’ll discover what to do and don’t do. The situation is not the same in India. India is a very difficult country as well. In India, we have also witnessed similar wickets. Moving forward, it will also be difficult.

These kinds of situations are what you need to learn from. You gain confidence when you perform well in these circumstances, Rohit remarked.

Still, there are many who disagree. Former Indian batter Sanjay Manjrekar stated in a conversation with ESPNcricinfo that he is “not so sure” about Iyer but believes Gill and Jaiswal will find out by the time the Australia tour arrives.

Iyer recently took exception at being questioned about his problems with short ball.

“What do you mean?” He had retorted that he believed it to be a fabricated perception.

Now that he’s in denial mode, Iyer could only be able to change his direction once he acknowledges that he has technical problems when playing short ball.

[ad_1] Jadeja will be eyeing his ten-wicket haul. (PC: X.com) In a fast-moving and potentially decisive second day of the ongoing third Test in Mumbai, India took a major step toward winning the game. After being bowled out for 263, India bowled exceptionally well to restrict New Zealand to 171/9 by stumps. The Kiwis lead by 143 runs with one wicket remaining, and all eyes will be on how India approach the run chase on a turning Mumbai pitch. India started strong with the ball, as Akash Deep dismissed Tom Latham early. However, Devon Conway and Will Young steadied the innings. There were some loose shots, but the momentum shifted with Ravichandran Ashwin’s stunning catch to dismiss Daryl Mitchell, breaking a crucial 50-run partnership.  Will Young looked composed and reached a fifty, while Glenn Phillips’ brisk cameo pushed New Zealand’s lead past 100. Unfortunately for New Zealand, both were dismissed in quick succession. The experienced spin duo of Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja took a combined seven wickets, dismantling New Zealand’s batting line-up. India looked set for a big first innings lead with Shubman Gill and Rishabh Pant at the crease, but an outstanding post-lunch spell by Ajaz Patel brought New Zealand right back into the game. He claimed his sixth five-wicket haul. Ajaz had dismissed Yashasvi Jaiswal and nightwatchman Mohammed Siraj on Day 1. Day 2 saw him, despite Pant’s aggressive start, dismissing Sarfaraz and Gill, before sending Ashwin back to complete a five-wicket haul. The left-arm spinner was precise with his line and length, extracting significant turn and grip from the pitch. Phillips also contributed with a wicket, while Ish Sodhi and Matt Henry chipped in with one each as well. At the start of the day, India trailed by 149 runs with only six wickets in hand. Gill and Pant put together a solid 96-run stand, with Pant maintaining his attacking approach. Both players reached their half-centuries, but Pant’s dismissal slowed the scoring rate, making boundaries harder to find. Gill soon followed for 90, just short of his century, once again exposing India’s fragile lower middle order. Further down, Washington Sundar contributed an unbeaten 38 and could have added more had Akash Deep not been run out in a notably casual manner. India will be quite pleased with their efforts, and the game now leans slightly in their favour. However, with the pitch showing signs of wear, chasing won’t be an easy task. Brief scores: New Zealand 235 (Daryl Mitchell 82, Will Young 71; Ravindra Jadeja 5-65) & 171/9 (Will Young 51, Glenn Phillips 26; Ravindra Jadeja 4/52) lead India 263 (Shubman Gill 90, Rishabh Pant 60; Ajaz Patel 5/103) by 143 runs.

India vs Australia, 2nd T20I: Yashasvi Jaiswal, Ruturaj Gaikwad And Ishan Kishan Achieve Rare Feat For India

Suryakumar Yadav-led Team India continued it's fiery form and registered a thumping 44-run victory over Australia in the second T20I on Sunday. Asked to bat first, India posted a whopping total of 235/4 in 20 overs with Yashasvi Jaiswal, Ruturaj Gaikwad, and Ishan Kishan scoring stunning half-centuries. Later, the hosts restricted Australia to 191/9 with Prasidh Krishna and Ravi Bishnoi taking three wickets each. Apart from this magnificent win, Team India has also registered a rare feat in the shortest format.

It was for the first time that India's top three batters scored 50 plus runs in a T20I match. It was only the fifth time in the history of the shortest format that such an achievement was registered.

Talking about the match, opener Jaiswal led the charge of India's young brigade with a sparkling 53 off 25 balls, guiding India to a massive 235 for four in the company of Ishan (52 off 32 balls) and Gaikwad (58 off 43 balls).

Leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi (3/32) then muffled the Australian top-order with two quick blows, and the visitors were eventually limited to 191 for nine despite aggressive knocks by Tim David (37 off 22 balls) and Marcus Stoinis (45 off 25 balls).

Pacer Prasidh Krishna grabbed three wickets to accentuate Australia's fall as they lost five wickets for 16 runs.

Both the teams will now meet again on Tuesday for the third T20I match of the five-match series in Guwahati.

The commencement of the 3rd T20 match between India and West Indies took an unexpected turn as a peculiar delay unfolded. Just as the players were poised for the action to kick off, a unique episode occurred. The umpire's call for play was momentarily halted, directing the players to vacate the field. The reason? The ground staff needed to mark the missing 30-yard circle. Though the mistake was swiftly rectified, the delay extended the start time by 5 minutes.

Key Points to Note

India clinched victory in the 3rd T20 by 7 wickets.

An atypical delay led to the postponement of the match's commencement.

Suryakumar Yadav's impressive innings of 83 off 44 balls stood out in the match.

R Ashwin's Insight on the Unusual Delay The delay triggered swift reactions on social media, with netizens expressing their astonishment at the Providence Stadium ground management's blunder. Among these responses, seasoned Team India spinner Ravichandran Ashwin voiced his perspective. He termed the delay "unique" and emphasized that a cricketer must always be prepared for the unexpected.

In Ashwin's words, "Unique delay! It’s not an easy place to tour for reasons like this. As a cricketer one has to be switched on all the time and always expect the unexpected. All the best to @ybj_19 💪💪 Go well Chinni Paiyaa 🤩 #INDvsWI" – Ashwin 🇮🇳 (@ashwinravi99) August 8, 2023.

Recap of the India vs. West Indies 3rd T20 Opting to bat first after winning the toss, West Indies secured a solid opening with Kyle Mayers and Brandon King at the helm. The partnership took the team past the 50-run mark. However, the run rate lagged, reaching just under 8. India was presented with a target of 160 to chase.

India's chase began on a challenging note, with debutant Yashasvi Jaiswal departing after a brief innings. Shubman Gill's struggles continued as he managed only 6 runs off 11 balls. Amid this predicament, Suryakumar Yadav and emerging batting sensation Tilak Varma took charge. Their assault on the West Indies' attack shifted the momentum in India's favor. Suryakumar Yadav's masterful 83 off 44 balls earned him the man of the match award, while Varma's unbeaten 49 off 37 played a crucial role. The partnership propelled India to victory by 7 wickets.

The match's unforeseen delay and subsequent thrilling gameplay showcased the unpredictable nature of cricket, highlighting the sport's ability to deliver surprises even beyond the boundary lines.
