Adil Rashid has a strong white ball record for his country and is playing at his home ground so we are backing the spinner to be England’s top wicket taker on Wednesday.Babar Azam top scored for Pakistan in two of their three T20Is against Ireland earlier this month and the skipper is a strong choice for their highest run scorer in this match. Former captain Shaheen Shah Afridi is a brilliant left-arm opening pacer and he is our pick for Pakistan’s top wicket taker against England.After averaging 82.75 across his last T20I series, we recommend backing Phil Salt to hit over 31.5 runs in this clash. England 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. England vs Pakistan 1st T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips Headingley is the venue for the first England versus Pakistan T20I on Wednesday evening. This match is the first of three in the series which is taking place just ahead of the 2024 T20 World Cup and sees the two finalists from the 2022 T20 World Cup going head to head! Read on as we preview this game which begins in Leeds at 18:30 local time on May 22nd. England will be looking to this three match T20I series to generate some momentum and team spirit ahead of the T20 World Cup. Many of their players have been in action for different sides in the 2024 Indian Premier League so they must come together quickly and we expect them to do so in this game. After losing to Ireland in the opening T20I of their series earlier this month, Pakistan responded well to secure the series across the final two matches. However, they are likely to find England a much tougher opponent starting with this opening fixture. England vs Pakistan Match Toss PredictionThe only previous T20I at Headingley was won by the team batting first and with the weather looking uncertain we expect both captains to want to bat first if they win the toss ahead of this match. England vs Pakistan Pitch ReportThis pitch usually turns for the spinners but with plenty of cloud cover there should be a lot of movement for the quick and swing bowlers. A par score is likely to be no higher than 175 – 180 in this opening game of the series. Leeds Weather ReportThe forecast for Leeds on Wednesday afternoon and evening is not currently very promising. There is a high chance of rain throughout with the temperature no higher than 14 degrees.

Sanju Samson achieves huge milestone in IPL, joins Suresh Raina in elite list – India TV

Sanju Samson achieves huge milestone in IPL, joins Suresh Raina in elite list – India TV

Image Source : AP Sanju Samson may have scored just 18 runs against Punjab Kings but he achieved a huge milestone in the IPL Rajasthan Royals skipper Sanju Samson is having his best IPL season yet as he notched up 500 runs in the ongoing edition. Even though he scored just 18 runs against the Punjab Kings on Wednesday, May 15 in Guwahati, Samson became only the second batter in IPL to score 3000 runs batting at No 3 after Suresh Raina as he notched up the feat after scoring his 10th run against Punjab. While Raina is still more than 1900 runs away, Samson too has made distance with the likes of Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers, who are No 3 and 4 on the list. Most runs at No 3 in IPL Suresh Raina (CSK, GL) – 4,934 runs in 171 innings Sanju Samson (RR, DD) – 3,008 runs in 90 inningsVirat Kohli (RCB) – 2,815 runs in 93 inningsAB de Villiers (DD, RCB) – 2,188 runs in 58 inningsManish Pandey (KKR, DC, MI, RCB, LSG, PWI, SRH) – 1,942 runs in 72 innings Samson’s performance with the bat has been one of the key reasons behind Rajasthan Royals’s impressive run in the 2024 edition of the IPL apart from Riyan Parag’s emergence. Yes, the Royals have suffered a hiccup in the last few matches with three successive losses, however, they still are a quality side and with playoffs confirmed, Samson would eye a 600-plus season with the T20 World Cup coming. As far as the match is concerned, the Punjab Kings read the conditions well and the likes of Sam Curran, Nathan Ellis and Harshal Patel deployed their slower deliveries efficiently and the Royals, who wanted to post a big total after choosing to bat first, failed to read the conditions and ended up with a below-par score. Local boy Riyan Parag did score a few in the end to take them to 140-plus but they will have to bowl out of their skins to defend that.

Indians accused of killing Hardeep Singh Nijjar appear before Canadian court

Indians accused of killing Hardeep Singh Nijjar appear before Canadian court

Karan Brar, Kamalpreet Singh and Karanpreet Singh, three of four individuals charged with murdering Hardeep Singh Nijjar in 2023, appear in Surrey Provincial Court in Surrey, Canada, on May 21, 2024, in a courtroom sketch. | Photo Credit: Reuters Three Indian nationals accused of killing Khalistan separatist Hardeep Singh Nijjar last year appeared in person for the first time in a Canadian court on May 21, with the judge ordering them to have no contact with several people in the community. Karan Brar (22), Kamalpreet Singh (22), and Karanpreet Singh (28) appeared in person at the British Columbia Provincial Court in Surrey and Amandeep Singh (22) appeared via video link, the Vancouver Sun reported. The British Columbia judge has ordered all four of them to have no contact with several people in the community in their latest court appearance, the report added. Those appearing in person wore red prison sweatsuits as they entered the courtroom, while Amandeep remains in custody in Ontario where he was facing unrelated weapons before being arrested on May 10 for Nijjar’s killing. Judge Mark Jette spoke to the men through an interpreter as he placed them under the no-contact order, before adjourning until the suspects’ next appearance on June 25. Richard Fowler, the lawyer representing Karan Brar, told the Vancouver Sun,” It’s completely understandable given the context why there is an enormous amount of community interest in this case. That level of community interest makes me…to ensure that those charged with these offences have a fair trial.” “And I have no doubt the members of East Indian community, broader Canadian community and the international community are equally interested in ensuring that there was a fair trial, that justice is done.” Attendees at the latest hearing for the men were searched before entering the courthouse, while a protest by supporters of Nijjar and the Sikh separatist movement he championed was taking place outside. Sheriffs at the hearing placed peoples’ phones in plastic zipper bags and kept them outside the courtroom in plastic bins, with the judge warning observers that recording audio and taking pictures was prohibited, the report added. Hundreds of local Sikhs carrying Khalistan flags and posters showed up at the courthouse. Nijjar, 45, was killed outside Guru Nanak Sikh Gurdwara in Surrey, British Columbia on June 18, 2023. The ties between India and Canada came under severe strain following Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s allegations in September last year of the “potential” involvement of Indian agents in the killing of Nijjar.

Get to Know Who will win SL vs ZIM 1st ODI match and toss Prediction with Head to Head stats, Playing 11, CBTFJSK Tips, Betting Rates, Live score & winning percentage. MATCH: Sri Lanka vs ZimbabweDATE: Jan 06, 2024TIME: 14:30 IST / 9:00 GMTVENUE: R. Premadasa Stadium – Colombo, Sri Lanka TOURNAMENT: Sri Lanka vs Zimbabwe 1st ODI 2024 Sri Lanka vs Zimbabwe Betting Tips Pathum Nissanka has scored three centuries and 13 fifties in ODI cricket and the right-handed opener is well worth backing as Sri Lanka’s highest run scorer against Zimbabwe. Dilshan Madushanka took 21 wickets during the 2023 Cricket World Cup and he is our tip for Sri Lanka’s top wicket taker in this game.Craig Ervine hit over 200 runs across three ODI innings at one point in 2023. He is a strong choice for Zimbabwe’s highest run scorer in this opening game of the series. Richard Ngarava took a wicket with the first ball of the innings in Zimbabwe’s last ODI and he is our pick for their top wicket taker in this match.With a four-wicket and a five-wicket haul from his first 15 ODI appearances, we recommend selecting Dilshan Madushanka to take over 1.5 wickets in this clash. Sri Lanka vs Zimbabwe 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 ZIM 1st ODI Match Prediction & Betting Tips Zimbabwe’s tour of Sri Lanka begins with a three-match ODI series and the opening game gets underway in Colombo on Saturday afternoon. This will be Sri Lanka’s first match since they were knocked out of the 2023 Cricket World Cup. For Zimbabwe, they recently lost an ODI series 2-0 at home against Ireland. Read on as we preview this game. The match begins at the R Premadasa Stadium at 14:30 local time. Sri Lanka had a disappointing 2023 Cricket World Cup and finished in ninth place, only avoiding the bottom spot on net-run-rate. However, their lowly position was a surprise as they had had a strong 2023 in ODIs and reached the final of the Asia Cup earlier in the Autumn. They will be very confident of beating a weak Zimbabwe in Colombo. Zimbabwe come into this series with a new coach and a new captain but without enough world class players to make a real impact against the top level sides. They will certainly be comptetitive at times but a lack of top order runs could make it a hard afternoon and evening in Colombo. SL vs ZIM Match Toss PredictionFive of the last seven ODIs at the R Premadasa Stadium have been won by the team batting first. Therefore, we predict that both captains will want to bat first ahead of this ODI. SL vs ZIM Pitch ReportAs ever, there will be some turn for the spinners in Colombo and the pace bowlers will also get some movement from the pitch. A par score will be under 300. Colombo Weather ReportWe can expect cloudy conditions throughout the afternoon and evening on Saturday. Humidity will be high and there will be a constant threat of rain and thunderstorms.

Rishabh Pant: Playing for India is not a destination, it’s a journey: Rishabh Pant | Cricket News

NEW DELHI: Rishabh Pant delved into the profound intricacies of ambition, dreams, and the perpetual journey of cricket, offering a glimpse into his remarkable resilience and unwavering determination.In a candid interview on Star Sports, Pant’s reflections on the evolution of dreams resonated deeply as he articulated, “You have some dreams which you have been seeing since childhood…Then there are some dreams which, as your life goes on, you have to give dreams to yourself.” This introspective perspective shed light on the transformative nature of aspirations, evolving from childhood fantasies to self-motivated milestones.Drawing from personal experience, Pant emphasized the necessity of setting new goals to sustain motivation and growth, stating, “As a kid I always thought I have to play for India… So I played for India, now what? You have to give yourself different dreams.” His words echoed the sentiment of continuous self-challenge and reinvention, crucial for navigating the complexities of life and sport.While acknowledging the significance of focusing on the process, Pant underscored the importance of establishing small, attainable targets in life to fuel motivation. “It is important to give yourself these small goals in life… So that we remain motivated. And this is a constant journey,” he remarked, highlighting the perpetual quest for personal and professional excellence.In a poignant analogy, Pant likened the cricketing journey to a dynamic progression rather than a static destination, asserting, “I feel cricket is not a destination. Playing for India is not a destination. It’s a journey.” His profound insight underscored the enduring commitment and continuous evolution inherent in the pursuit of sporting excellence. Pant’s introspective musings come against the backdrop of his remarkable resurgence in the cricketing arena, marked by his triumphant return to the Indian squad for the upcoming T20 World Cup. This milestone follows a tumultuous period during which Pant faced a near-fatal car crash, resulting in a severe knee injury that threatened his career.Undeterred by adversity, Pant’s resilience and determination shone through as he staged a remarkable comeback to competitive cricket, dazzling fans with his explosive batting displays in the ongoing Indian Premier League. With 398 runs in 11 innings at a blistering strike rate of 158.56, Pant’s performances underscored his indomitable spirit and unwavering commitment to excellence.

"Aukat Se Bahar": India, Pakistan Fans In War Of Words Over Video Of Stars Walking Past IPL Final Telecast

“Aukat Se Bahar”: India, Pakistan Fans In War Of Words Over Video Of Stars Walking Past IPL Final Telecast

India vs Pakistan – if on the field it’s an intense cricket contest, off the field too things are no less. Sometimes, the fans’ enthusiasm surpass the stars who play on the field. Even the broadcasters capitalise on the same (think about the ‘Mauk Mauka’ ad). The Indian cricket team and Pakistan cricket team will once again face off at the T20 World Cup 2024 on June 9. Though, India enjoy supremacy as far as head-to-head record is concerned, Pakistan are T20 World Cup runner-up of 2022.  Ahead of the clash, India and Pakistan engaged in a war of words over a viral video which showed Pakistan players walking past a TV screen, where IPL final was being telecast.  Unhe pata hai Aukat se bahar hai to kya matlab dekhkr dil jalane se — Dr. Rahul Jat (@Rahul_jaat001) May 30, 2024 Meanwhile International team players ignore Pakistan tour during IPL — ChauhanSahab (@chauhandwarrior) May 30, 2024 Pakistani Players ignored IPL Final pic.twitter.com/JigwfIFivA — Imran Siddique (@imransiddique89) May 30, 2024 Ahead of the high-octane India versus Pakistan clash in the ICC T20 World Cup on June 9, security cover will be raised at New York’s Eisenhower Park stadium following reports of threats to the match, reported ESPNCricinfo. As per a statement by the governor’s office, the situation is being monitored and according to their intel “there is no credible public safety threat at this time.” Eisenhower Park Stadium, located 25 miles east of Manhattan, is the host of eight ICC T20 WC matches from June 3 to 12, including the battle between two Asian arch-rivals. The governor of New York, Kathy Hochul, said that she is working with the law enforcement authorities to make sure these games go on smoothly. “I have also directed the New York State Police to engage in elevated security measures, including an increased law enforcement presence, advanced surveillance, and thorough screening processes,” she said as quoted by ESPNCricinfo. “Public safety is my top priority and we are committed to ensuring the Cricket World Cup is a safe, enjoyable experience,” she added. ESPNCricinfo has learnt that no corroborative evidence has been found by authorities to back the reported threat. But the International Cricket Council (ICC) has said that security will be “robust” throughout the tournament across all venues. With ANI inputs Topics mentioned in this article

Sunil Gavaskar lambasts Star Sports amid ongoing debate over Virat Kohli's strike rate – India TV

Sunil Gavaskar lambasts Star Sports amid ongoing debate over Virat Kohli’s strike rate – India TV

Image Source : GETTY IMAGES Sunil Gavaskar. Sunil Gavaskar lambasted Star Sports, the official broadcaster of IPL 2024 after they aired Virat Kohli’s response to commentators who have been critical of his strike rate in the 17th edition of the cash-rich league. Gavaskar, who is commentating for Star Sports in the ongoing season, was a part of their build-up to RCB’s (Royal Challengers Bengaluru) clash with Gujarat Titans, the 52nd game of the season. He slammed Star for repeatedly airing Virat’s response to the commentators who have raised questions over his strike rate. “That particular post-game interview has been shown on this channel earlier as well, right now, on this particular program it has probably been shown half a dozen times,” Gavaskar said on Star Sports ahead of the game between RCB and Gujarat. “I hope that Star Sports recognises that when that is being shown, asking where are the critics, the critics are the commentators. Your Star Sports commentators are the ones from whom the questions are being asked.” “If you have a strike rate of 118, you come and face the first ball, and then you get out in the 14th or 15th over and your strike rate is 118 – if you want applause for that, then that’s a little bit different,” he said. “But for Star Sports to show the person belittling their own commentators, I’m not sure that’s a great thing. So I think Star Sports needs to understand that they have shown it enough times, everyone’s got the message. Gavaskar also cautioned Star not to show the clip of Virat Kohli slamming the commentators again. “We’ve all played a bit of cricket, not a lot of cricket, but we speak about what we see. We don’t necessarily have any likes and dislikes. Even if we have likes or dislikes, we actually speak on what’s happening. So, I would be very disappointed if Star Sports show this once more because that will be questioning all us commentators,” he concluded. For the unversed, Virat had expressed dissatisfaction over the constant talk regarding his strike rate after scoring an unbeaten 70 off 44 balls against Gujarat Titans. “I think all the people who talk about strike rates and me not playing spin well are the ones who love talking about this stuff,” Virat said after RCB’s nine-wicket win over Gujarat in Ahmedabad on April 28. “But, for me, it’s about winning the game for the team. And there is a reason you have done this for 15 years,” Kohli said after his match-winning knock against Gujarat in the presentation ceremony. “You have done this, day in and day out. You have won games for your team. And I am not quite sure if you have not been in that situation yourself, to sit and speak about the game from a box. “I don’t think it’s the same thing. For me, it’s about doing the job for the team. People can sit and talk about their own ideas and assumptions of the game. But those who have done it, day in and day out, they know what they are doing. It’s kind of muscle memory for me,” he added.
