"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.

RR s RCB : IPL 2024 Eliminator Expected Lineup Live Toss, 100% Prediction & Which Team Will Win?

The following is a look at the Playing XI predictions, head-to-head statistics, venue records, pitch, and weather updates for the upcoming Indian Premier League 2024 Eliminator match between Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers Bengaluru.

Match Preview

A match between the Rajasthan Royals and the Royal Challengers is taking place today in Bengaluru. On Wednesday, a crucial Indian Premier League eliminator will take place at the Narendra Modi Stadium. The match will be between the high-flying Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), captained by Faf du Plessis, and the Rajasthan Royals, who are battling under the leadership of Sanju Samson.

At one point, it seemed as if the Royals were going to finish in first place in the league stage. However, after suffering a series of four losses and a washout in their last match against KKR, Sanju Samson's team ended up in third place, with Sunrisers Hyderabad being the team that finished ahead of them. In contrast, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) has clawed its way back from the verge of elimination in a remarkable manner. Following a string of seven consecutive defeats in their first eight matches of the season, the team captained by Faf du Plessis went on an incredible run, and only a few nights ago, they eventually defeated the reigning champions, the Chennai Super Kings, to secure a spot in the playoffs.

RR vs RCB: Pitch Report

Narendra Modi Stadium's surface is fair and equal, designed to accommodate the abilities of all different kinds of players. There is a possibility that the wicket could begin to show signs of wear as the season comes to a close, which may provide the spinners with a little extra help.

The Fourth Thriller: Lahore's T20 Match Between Pakistan and New Zealand

The highly anticipate­d fourth T20 clash between Pakistan and Ne­w Zealand (PAK vs NZ) is marking its presence­ on April 25th 2024 in the city of Lahore with the se­ries standings tied at 11. Following two riveting conte­sts in Rawalpindi this upcoming fixture holds the promise of be­ing a thrilling affair under the influence­ of multiple critical determinants.

Pakistan's Opener-Heavy Batting Strategy

Pakistans batting success re­volves around the performance­ of openers Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan renowne­d for their consistent establishme­nt of strong partnerships. A key factor lies in the­ir skills to handle the initial swing phase crucial for se­tting up a competitive team score­.

The Bowling Depth of New Zealand

Despite­ the absence of ke­y players in the IPL the bowling stre­ngth of New Zealand stands out. Spinners Mitche­ll Santner and Ish Sodhi together with pace­rs Lockie Ferguson and Adam Milne are­ well placed to capitalize on the­ late turning conditions of the Lahore pitch.

The bowling attack of Pakistan

Pakistan's bowling prowess spe­arheaded by the fie­ry Shaheen Afridi and Haris Rauf is all geare­d up to give New Zealand's top batting line­up a solid challenge. How they e­xcel at delivering slowe­r balls during the crucial death overs and the­ crafty left arm spin of Mohammad Nawaz could play a defining role in bre­aking key partnerships.

New Zealand's Striking Ability

New Ze­aland boasts a formidable batting lineup anchored by se­asoned campaigners such as Martin Guptill Kane Williamson and Gle­nn Phillips. The teams prowess in e­fficiently rotating the strike and capitalizing on loose­ deliveries will play a pivotal role­ in their pursuit of challenging substantial targets.

Home Advantage of Pakistan

Playing amidst the bustling stre­ets of Lahore Pakistan the te­am will delight in the unwavering passion e­xuded by their dedicate­d home crowd and the reassuring e­mbrace of the familiar pitch conditions potentially prope­lling them to a competitive advantage­.

New Zealand's Adaptability

New Ze­aland is renowned for its adeptne­ss at handling pressure situations. Their proficie­ncy in chasing targets in T20 matches is exe­mplary showcasing their seasoned approach to navigating te­nse encounters.

Prediction

It's hard to call this contest. With their respective advantages and disadvantages, the two teams are evenly matched. Here are two scenarios that could occur:

Scenario 1: India Triumphs

Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan orchestrate­d a remarkable opening partne­rship showcasing their synergy and cricketing prowe­ss. Shaheen Afridi and Haris Rauf unleashe­d havoc on New Zealands top order e­stablishing early dominance for Pakistan. Mohammad Nawazs spin expe­rtise in the pivotal middle ove­rs played a pivotal role in stee­ring Pakistan towards a triumphant victory.

Scenario 2: New Zealand Wins

Following a promising start by Pakistan's opening batsme­n their middle order e­ncountered difficulties re­stricting them to a modest total. In reply Ne­w Zealand's opening pair comprised of Martin Guptill and Kane­ Williamson established a strong platform.

The late ­innings contribution of Glenn Phillips injected e­xcitement driving New Ze­aland to a thrilling victory by a narrow margin securing a 21 advantage in the se­ries.

Who is going to prevail?

The te­am that handles pressure e­xpertly and minimizes errors is positione­d for success in this riveting edge­ of your seat clash to be decide­d solely by the final delive­ry.

Rishabh Pant Enjoys First Nets Session In Indian jersey After 16 Months, Gears Up For T20 WC

Star Indian wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant had his first nets session for Team India after at least 16 months, ahead of the ICC T20 World Cup opener against Ireland, scheduled for June 5.

The ICC T20 World Cup will be played in the West Indies and the USA from June 1 to 29. The Men in Blue will also play Bangladesh in their only warm-up game on June 1 at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York.

Pant, who returned to competitive cricket during the Indian Premier League (IPL) this year following a life-threatening road accident in December 2022, will be making his much-awaited return to the blue colours of the Indian jersey.

In the recently concluded IPL 2024, Rishabh's team Delhi Capitals finished in the sixth spot with seven wins, seven losses and 14 points and failed to move to playoffs. He scored 446 runs in 13 matches at a strike rate of over 155 with three half-centuries and emerged as the team's top run-getter.

Pant looked in great shape while practicing, having lost a lot of weight, and sported a much leaner look ahead of the tournament.

In a video posted by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), Pant said, "This is one thing I missed a lot (practicing with the Indian team and playing for them). Getting back on the field with the Indian jersey on, it is a different feel altogether and this is something I missed a lot. I think seeing the teammates and meeting them again, spending time, having fun with them, enjoying having conversations, really enjoying it."

Pant said that playing in the USA is a different prospect and it has opened a whole new channel for the sport.

"We are used to playing in certain countries but this is a different prospect. It has opened up a different channel for sport because I feel cricket is growing around the world and getting in a country like the US and getting the exposure here would be nice for cricket as well as USA cricket I guess," he said.

He said he is getting used to the conditions and the sun shines a little brighter here in the US and there are new pitches.

"So just getting used to conditions over here and let us see how it goes. Hopefully, I make it count and make it more better from here," he concluded.

In seven T20 WC matches and five innings, he has scored 87 runs at an average of 21.75 across 2021 and 2022 editions, with the best score of 39.

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.

Meanwhile, the most-awaited blockbuster clash between India and Pakistan will take place on June 9. They 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 will be aiming to win their first T20 WC title since they won the inaugural edition of the tournament back in 2007 in South Africa. In the last edition held in Australia in 2022, India lost to England by 10 wickets in the semifinals.

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. Siraj

RR vs KKR: IPL 2024 Expected Lineup, Live Toss, 100% Prediction & Which Team Will Win?

Match Preview

This coming Sunday, match number 70 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) will take place at the Barsapara Stadium in Guwahati. The event will feature the Rajasthan Royals (RR) competing against the Kolkata Knight Riders.

After securing a spot in the playoffs with 16 points, the Royals have begun to struggle at the business end of the campaign, as they have lost four matches in a row. On the other side, KKR (19 points) have already secured a top spot in the standings after a washout against the Gujarat Titans in Ahmedabad in the previous round earned them one point. This has allowed them to secure their position as the top team on the table.

 

RR vs KKR: Pitch Report

Barsapara Cricket Stadium

This is the thirteenth venue of the season, marking the highest number in an Indian Premier League season. With side limits of 63 metres and 60 metres and a straight boundary measuring 73 metres, this location has historically been a relatively high-scoring event. The pitch that we are playing on is made of black earth, and it is hard and rolls really well. "Certainly a surface on which a great number of runs can be scored," Deep Dasgupta and WV Raman remarked before the match between RR and PBKS, which was the last match ever played at the stadium and also the first match ever played there.

In spite of the fact that the pitch has a few fractures, it normally plays far better than it seems to. In the previous year, the team that batted first won both of these games. However, in a match between India and Australia that took place at this venue, Australia chased a massive score of 222 in the last over. This is something that teams want to accomplish because, while they are pursuing it, they are under pressure. They continued by saying, "There are a lot of runs to be had here, regardless of when you bat on the pitch."

RR chose to bat first in the match, and they ended up scoring 144/9 in 20 overs (overs). It was the pacers of PBKS who took six wickets, while the pacers themselves took two wickets. In response, Punjab was able to knock down the goal in 18.5 overs, losing five wickets in the process. There were three wickets taken by RR pacers. During the last five Twenty20 matches, the average total score has been 182 runs. Over the last five years, teams that won the toss have chosen to bowl first 61 percent of the time.
