Like Dad, Like Daughter: Suhana Khan’s Post On KKR Ending 12-Year Jinx Has Our Heart

File photo of Suhana Khan.© Instagram Suhana Khan, daughter of Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) co-owner Shah Rukh Khan, was over the moon after the team won their game against the Mumbai Indians (MI) at the Wankhede Stadium on Friday. Suhana came to support KKR in the absence of his father and Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan, who was banned in 2012 by Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) from entering the venue. While his five-year ban was lifted by the MCA in 2015, Shah Rukh Khan was nowhere to be seen on Friday. Nonetheless, KKR registered a memorable win over MI by 24 runs, ending a 12-year wait for a victory over the hosts at the Wankhede Stadium. Taking to Instagram, an elated Suhana posted a story after KKR’s win. She shared a few hearts with the Wankhede big screen showing, “KKR win by 24 runs.” Her post has gone viral on social media. Coming back to the match, Venkatesh Iyer’s brilliant fighting half-century topped a similar effort by Suryakumar Yadav as Mitchell Star’s four-fer helped KKR beat MI by 24 runs. In a match dominated by the bowlers, Iyer rescued KKR from a precarious 57/5 by scoring a valiant 52-ball 70 to help them reach a lowly 169. KKR’s spin twins, Sunil Narine and Varun Chakravarthy, then claimed identical hauls of 4-22 in their four overs each to reduce Mumbai Indians to 61/4. MI were soon down to 71/6 before Suryakumar Yadav launched a valiant rescue attempt, hauling them to 120 in the company of Tim David before Andre Russell (2-30) and Mitchell Starc shared five wickets between them to end Mumbai Indians’ fightback. Starc claimed three wickets in the 19th over, two of them off successive deliveries as MI were bowled out for 145. KKR consolidated their second spot in the IPL 2024 points table, while MI are all but out after suffering their eighth loss in 11 matches. (With IANS Inputs) Topics mentioned in this article

Fixing-Tainted Pakistan Pacer Faces Visa Issues For Travelling To This Country

Pakistan’s first T20 international against Ireland is on May 10.© AFP Pakistan pacer Mohammad Amir may not be able to leave with the national squad on Tuesday morning for the three-match T20 series in Ireland due to visa issues. A reliable source in the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) said that while the rest of the squad had got their visas for Ireland, there was a delay in Amir’s case due to the jail term he served for the 2010 spot-fixing scandal. “Because of the spot-fixing case of 2010 and his subsequent jail term and ban his visa is still being processed,” the source said. He said a similar problem was faced by the PCB in 2018 as well when Pakistan went to Ireland and England but Amir was later issued a visa. “We are hopeful he will get his visa in a day or two and he can join them later,” he said. Pakistan’s first T20 international against Ireland is on May 10. (This story has not been edited by NDTV staff and is auto-generated from a syndicated feed.) Topics mentioned in this article

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Ireland vs Pakistan𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : May 12, 2024𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 IST / 14:00 GMT𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Clontarf Cricket Club Ground – Dublin, Ireland 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 2nd T20 2024 Ireland vs Pakistan Betting Tips Andrew Balbirnie played a stunning innings of 77 in the first game and led Ireland to a win. He should be backed as Ireland top batter. Mark Adair is Ireland’s best bowler and should pose a big challenge for Pakistan, especially with the new ball. Back him to take over 1.5 wickets in the game.Babar Azam scored 57 in the first match. Babar is known for his consistent performances and even though he was far from fluent, one can back him to come good again. He is a top pick for Pakistan top batter. Shaheen Afridi can be lethal with the new ball and very capable to run through a lineup. Back him as top Pakistan bowler.Pakistan have more six hitters in the team, with likes of Saim Ayub, Azam Khan and Iftikhar Ahmed. They are likely to hit more sixes among the two teams. Ireland vs Pakistan TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. Ireland vs Pakistan 2nd T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips Ireland will take on Pakistan in the 2nd match of the three T20I series. The game will be played at the Clontarf Cricket Club Ground, Dublin Stadium and will start at 7:30 PM IST on May 12. Ireland picked up a comprehensive five wicket win in the first T20I to get the series off to a perfect start. The hosts were not intimidated by the mighty opposition and were clinical in their approach. Ireland did well to restrict Pakistan to 182-6 and later chased the target by five wickets to spare, with Andrew Balbirnie scoring 77. Pakistan should be very concerned with the defeat as the team also lost to a second string New Zealand team at home. Pakistan could say they are experimenting ahead of the World Cup but they almost played a full strength team in the first T20I.  Pakistan’s approach to the game has been a concern in the last few games as the team has not aimed for bigger scores and followed a traditional strategy of starting low and scoring heavy in last overs, trying to post a score of around 180, but times have changed and the par score has moved up to 200-210, something Pakistan need to look into. Ireland vs Pakistan Match Toss PredictionCaptains winning the toss should bowl first. We saw in the first game that even a score of 180+ was not enough to defend thus both teams would prefer to chase. Ireland vs Pakistan Pitch ReportThe pitch at the Clontarf Cricket Club Ground, Dublin looks a good one to bat. There will be swing with the new ball but it won’t last more than a few overs after which it will be very easy to score runs and bowlers will have to rely on good lines and length. A score of 190-200 is just par. Dublin Weather ReportThere is heavy rain predicted with chances of precipitation going as high as 60 per cent. The weather will be in early 10s so it will be quite chilly conditions for cricket. Read on for team previews, betting tips, latest odds, and match prediction for Ireland vs Pakistan 2nd T20 2024

Sri Lanka vs West Indies, SL vs WI 2024, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Sri Lanka vs West Indies𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : Oct 26, Saturday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 14:30 PM IST​​ 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Pallekele International Cricket Stadium, Pallekele, Sri Lanka𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 :​​ 3rd ODIs 2023​​ Can Sri Lanka complete a whitewash? Will West Indies pick up a consolation win? Sri Lanka vs West Indies TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. SL vs WI Match Prediction & Analysis Sri Lanka clinched the series with a dominant win in the second ODI, sending West Indies into a state of dejection. West Indies know what they need to do to push for a win, but their young team doesn’t quite have the ability to adapt to the conditions and start playing spin with more confidence. No wonder the visitors are still searching for their first victory in more than 10 matches in Sri Lankan soil. With a dead rubber, there’s hardly any pressure and they may pick up a consolation win but they will need to play at their absolute best to even come close to challenging the mighty Lankans in this form. TEAMS PREVIEW Sri Lanka Preview Sri Lankan bowlers have come to the fore and set things up nicely for their batters to come in and get the job done. Asitha Fernando, Wanindu Hasaranga and Maheesh Theekshana—who walked into the XI at the last minute— bowled beautifully with intent to trigger a collapse and run through their batting order. At 58 for 8, the visitors were in deep trouble. Sri Lanka were hoping to mop up the tail and make short work of the chase, but Rutherford and Motie offered resistance bringing up a 119-run stand. West Indies Preview West Indies batsmen were left bewildered by Sri Lankan spinners in the second ODI, as well. Brandon King and Shai Hope looked to take the attack to the pace bowler Asitha Fernando, but it backfired against them in the end. Their wickets created an opening that the hosts spinners would exploit later on. West Indian batsmen were sitting ducks against the likes of Theekshana, Hasaranga on a slow, dry used surface. They couldn’t play out their full quota of overs and were skittled out inside 40. It could have been worse. Reduced to 58 for 8, the visitors had Rutherford and Motie come together and make some valuable runs for the 9th wicket, adding 119 runs to give their total a bit of respectability. Weather Conditions Scoring runs on the used wicket was arduous, as many West Indies batters found the other day. A new wicket is in order for the final match, but the conditions will mostly stay the same. And it could make run-scoring difficult early on, whether it’s pace or spin. It’s going to be cloudy and rain is predicted during the course of the game, and the bowlers will look to make the most of it. SL vs WI Pitch Report The match will be played at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium in Kandy where Sri Lanka picked up their 11th win in 14 matches a couple of days ago. Toss: To Bowl The chasing team had a leg up in both matches this series, so there’s a good chance that the team winning the toss would opt to field first.

Mild back stiffness forced Rohit Sharma to play as impact sub in MI-KKR clash

Mild back stiffness forced Rohit Sharma to play as impact sub in MI-KKR clash

KKR’s Coach Gautam Gambhir and MI’s Rohit Sharma during the practice session ahead of IPL game between KKR and Mumbai Indians at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Thursday. | Photo Credit: EMMANUAL YOGINI India captain and Mumbai Indians opener Rohit Sharma was forced to play as an impact sub in the IPL clash against Kolkata Knight Riders due to a “mild back stiffness”, said leg-spinner Piyush Chawla. Playing as an impact sub, Rohit managed just 11 runs in 12 balls in the second innings during their 24-run loss against KKR, which has nearly put the five-time champions out of the IPL this year. “He just had a mild back stiffness so it was just a precautionary thing,” Chawla told the media after the match here at the Wankhede Stadium. Mumbai’s defeat was their eighth in 11 matches, essentially shutting the doors on the Hardik Pandya-led side and Chawla too conceded that it is only “pride” that they are left with to play for. “For the pride and the reputation, because sometimes when you enter on the field, you don’t think whether you are going to qualify or you are not going to qualify,” he said. “You have to play for your name and that’s what we are playing for,” he added. Chawla pointed MI’s inability to attain momentum at any stage in this IPL as the reason behind their poor performance. “You must have often heard about that T20 is all about momentum and just that we didn’t get that momentum going this season and it can happen to any team,” he said. “It’s not like it’s happening to us for the first time or any other team for the second time. It can happen to anyone and it’s just that that momentum was not our way.” The 35-year-old Chawla became IPL’s second leading wicket-taker when he went past Dwayne Bravo on Friday to take 184 wickets. “It has been a beautiful journey because IPL started 17 years back and at that time nobody gave that much preference to the spinners, but now if you see that in top few wicket takers in India, especially all the spinners, Ashwin, Yuzhi, myself (are there), so it’s a good feeling,” he said. Chawla also praised Manish Pandey for delivering in a pressure situation while playing his first game this season. Pandey (42) added 83 runs for the sixth wicket with Venkatesh Iyer (70) as KKR posted 169 allout in 19.5 overs. “It was a good partnership and credit has to go to them because they batted beautifully. Well, T20 is something in which experience plays a big role, (which is) what we saw today. “When Manish walked in, maybe if somebody walks in who must have played few games, he would have panicked that runs are not coming. “But he read the situation and the way he handled the situation because if you see in starting, he was hardly going at run a ball. But later on, he knew that he has to stand there with Venky.”
