Hardik Pandya blames top-order collapse for defeat against Lucknow Super Giants | Cricket News

Danijones10 months ago03 mins

NEW DELHI: As Mumbai Indians succumbed to their seventh defeat of the season, this time against Lucknow Super Giants, skipper Hardik Pandya said loss of early wickets led to their down fall at the Ekana. After being put in to bat by KL Rahul, MI found themselves tottering at 28 for four after powerplay with pacers Mohsin Khan, Marcus Stoinis and Naveen-ul-Haq doing the early damage. Rohit Sharma (4), Suryakumar Yadav (10), Tilak Varma (7) and Hardik (0) all fell cheaply as Ishan Kishan (32) and Nehal Wadhera (46) and Tim David (35) somehow took them to a par total.Hardik said loss of wickets in a cluster in powerplay hurt them badly and they were never able to fully recover from that. “Definitely, losing early wickets in the powerplay is tough to recover from. Where we needed the most, we could not do well,” Hardik said in the post-match presentation. On being asked if high scores this season have put more pressure on the batters early, Hardik said, “Not really, you still have to see the ball and hit. The wicket was good. The ball was there to be hit and we just missed, that sort of season for us so far. I have always believed that whenever you take to the field, sometimes you will be down, sometimes you will be up, and you have to fight. It looks difficult but there are a lot of things you can learn from this game.”Amid MI’s freefall against LSG, Wadhera stood out, notching up a solid 41-ball 46 and Hardik was quick in praising the responsible effort from the youngster. “He has been fantastic, the way he batted against Rajasthan and tonight. He did fantastic last year as well. It was because of the team combination that he could not play early. Looking at his talent, he will play for a lot of years for Mumbai and for India eventually,” Hardik added. With 7 losses in 10 matches, MI are at the ninth spot. A victory on the other hand, lifted Lucknow to third spot.

He is a good choice for CSK top bowler.Jonny Bairstow made a scintillating return to form and scored a brilliant century against KKR.

The game will be played at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai and will start at 7:30 PM IST on May 1. Chennai Super Kings returned to winning ways after beating Sunrisers Hyderabad. The win was CSK’s fifth in nine games as they moved to third on the IPL points table. CSK now only need three wins in remaining five games to qualify. CSK have been dominant at home thus they would eye an easy win against PBKS and get close to the playoff berth. Meanwhile, PBKS created history after they chased 262 in the previous game against KKR, courtesy of a Jonny Bairstow century. PBKS has three wins in nine matches thus they need to win all their remaining five games to qualify for the playoffs. Chennai Super Kings vs Punjab Kings Match Toss PredictionThe captains have preferred to bowl given the dew factor but if a team puts big runs on board, it is not each to chase at Chepauk. Still, we feel captain winning the toss should chase. Chennai Super Kings vs Punjab Kings Pitch ReportThe surface at Chepauk has played better this season. The runs have not been hard to come by; however, spinners have got some grip and turn. Also, bowling in line of the stumps has got batters into trouble. A score of 180-200 is par here. Chennai Weather ReportIt will be a hot evening, with temperature hovering around 30 degrees. Dew could play a role and thus team batting second will have an advantage but that does not guarantee a win.

We are backing him as top wicket-taker for LSG.Suryakumar Yadav has looked the most assured batter for MI. He has scored a couple of fiery fifties for the team. Surya is one of the best players in this format of the game and in a must win game, MI need him to fire. Back him as top MI batter. Jasprit Bumrah, with 14 wickets, is the leading wicket-taker of the tournament and should be backed as MI top bowler.Rohit Sharma has not scored many runs but he has been aggressive at the top.

They lost to Delhi Capitals in the last game. MI have been very ordinary this season and won just three games out of the nine matches played. However, MI are just not out of the playoff race. If MI can win all their remaining five games, they will qualify for the playoffs, however, it won’t be an easy task given how the team has fared so far.

Mumbai Indians lost Rohit Sharma (8) early with the score at 35. Ishan Kishan (20) also fell with MI score at 45 in 4.1 overs. All the hopes fell on the shoulders of Suryakumar Yadav (26 off 13 balls) who thrashed three boundaries and 2 sixes. But with the wicket of Suryakumar Yadav, Mumbai Indians relied on its captain Hardik Pandya. Pandya (46) scored some scintillating shots and took his team to 136 in 12.3 overs. Nehal Wadhera (4) fell early and Mumbai Indains were in some sort of trouble. But Tim David (37) and Tilak Verma (63) played brilliantly and they nearly took Mumbai Indians home but fell short by 10 runs. Mohammad Nabi and Piyush Chawla played some useful knocks towards the end of the innings. Rasikh Salam bowled brilliantly and took 3 for 34 Khaleel Ahmed (2 for 45) and Mukesh Kumar (3 for 59 ) were among the wicket-takers though expensive. Earlier, after sent into bat, Delhi Capitals went on a run-spree scoring a dauting score of 257 in 20 overs. Jake Fraser-McGurk (84 off just 27 balls) and Abishek Porel (36) started on a brisk note to put on 114 runs in just 7.3 overs. McGurk was particularly severe right from the first ball of the innings and scored at will despatching the bowlers to all around the Arun Jaitley stadium. He hit 11 fours and 6 sixes in his innings. Porel played second fiddle to McGurk. With the quick wickets of McGurk and Porel at 127 in 9.4 overs, it was Shai Hope (41 off 17 balls) and captain Rishabh Pant (29) scored briskly and added 53 runs in just 4 overs.

Sandeep Warrier stood out with the ball in their last game with 3/15 and he is our pick for Gujarat Titans’ top wicket taker in this clash.There was another half-century for Virat Kohli in Thursday’s victory against Sunrisers Hyderabad and the opener is our tip for RCB’s highest run scorer against Gujarat Titans. Spinner Karn Sharma took 2/29 in the last game and he is our pick for RCB’s top wicket taker on Sunday.With only one score under 30 so far in the tournament, we recommend selecting Sai Sudharsan to hit over 31.5 runs in this game.

Gujarat Titans vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips, IPL 2024 Gujarat Titans take on Royal Challengers Bengaluru in Match 45 of the 2024 Indian Premier League at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Sunday afternoon. The Titans begin this game on eight points, four points ahead of RCB who are currently at the bottom of the table. Read on as we preview this fixture. This match gets underway in Ahmedabad at 15:30 local time on Sunday 28th April. Gujarat Titans have been one of the most inconsistent sides in this year’s IPL so far and they lost a very tight contest against Delhi Capitals in their last match. However, they have plenty of batting depth and they will fancy their chances against RCB at home. After a miserable losing run, RCB finally got back to winning ways when they beat a very strong Sunrisers Hyderabad side on Thursday. There certainly seems to have been a turnaround in form after they narrowly lost their previous match but they will now need to make it three strong performances in a row to be competitive. GT vs RCB Match Toss PredictionWith 17 of the 31 IPL fixtures at the Narendra Modi Stadium won by the team fielding first, we predict that both captains will walk out to the toss planning to bowl first if they win the toss. GT vs RCB Pitch ReportAlthough we saw only 181 runs and 14 wickets fall on this pitch at the Narendra Modi Stadium in the last game, it is not a bad batting surface. A par score is at least 180 and there is not a huge amount of spin for the slow bowlers to work with so they may be used as a defensive option on this pitch. Ahmedabad Weather ReportThe weather forecast is for clear skies throughout this contest on Sunday afternoon with the temperature likely to be over 35 degrees from start to finish. Low humidity levels and no rain are expected. Read on for team previews, betting tips, latest odds, and match prediction for Gujarat Titans vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Indian Premier League 2024

He scored 82 against CSK in last game at the same ground. Back him as LSG top batter. The pitch will help the spinners and Ravi Bishnoi, even though he has been ordinary at times, can play a big role. We are putting our money on Bishnoi as top wicket-taker as batters will be keen to attack him as other bowlers are hard to score off.Yashasvi Jaiswal scored a magnificent century in the last game against MI. Jaiswal is someone who can be backed for consistency now since he has already got a ton to his name. Back him as RR top batter. Yuzvendra Chahal will be the trump card at Ekana pitch thus he is our pick for top bowler for RR.Scoring fours is not easy on a sluggish pitch at the Ekana Stadium and given the big hitters in both teams, we feel a lot of sixes will be hit in the game. Back total sixes in the match to be over 15.5.

Lucknow Super Giants vs Rajasthan Royals T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips, IPL 2024 Lucknow Super Giants will take on Rajasthan Royals in the 44th match of the IPL 2024. The game will be played at the Ekana Stadium in Lucknow and will start at 7:30 PM IST on April 27. Lucknow Super Giants will be over the moon after twin wins over Chennai Super Kings. The team seems to have peaked at the right moment, with KL Rahul, Marcus Stoinis and Nicholas Pooran picking some good form. They have five wins in eight games and need three wins in their remaining six games to qualify for the playoffs. The wins over CSK have certainly made them a strong contender to qualify for playoffs. Meanwhile, the game against RR will be a tough one for LSG. RR are flying high after seven wins in eight games. A win over LSG will make them qualify for the playoffs. The conditions in Lucknow have favoured spinners thus RR won’t feel much pressure of an away game. In Chahal and Ashwin, they have two class operators. Also, the form of Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sanju Samson, Riyan Parag make their batting look strong. Lucknow Super Giants vs Rajasthan Royals Match Toss PredictionToss will be crucial as there could be some dew in the second innings thus chasing will get slightly easier. We expect captains to win the toss and bowl first. Lucknow Super Giants vs Rajasthan Royals Pitch ReportThe pitch at the Ekana Stadium is usually slow and damp. It is not the best to bat, especially against the spinners. However, in the last game against CSK, they left a bit of grass so spinners did not get much help. Maybe, it was because of the opposition they were playing. We feel LSG would once again prepare a slow pitch. A score of 160-170 has been just about par here. Lucknow Weather ReportThe temperature will range between 41 and 25 degrees. The humidity will be 21 per cent and the wind speed will be 21 km/h.

Delhi Capitals came out on top of a very close but high scoring clash against Gujarat Titans earlier this week and they continue to move up the table after their disappointing start. They will fancy their chances at home but are likely to have a tough contest against Mumbai Indians. Mumbai Indians put in a poor bowling performance in the last game and their recent form now looks much worse as a result. However, the team is packed full of world class players, many who have performed well already in the tournament and we expect them to come out on top in this match.

The team has played seven games, winning five and losing just two. They are comfortably placed at second position in the points table. KKR just need three wins in the remaining seven games to qualify for the playoffs. The real positive for KKR this season has been their positive attitude and intent. The team has been ruthless and decimated teams with their aggressive stroke play. Meanwhile, Punjab Kings have been extremely poor. Barring Shashank Singh and Ashutosh Sharma, none of the team’s batters have performed, resulting in the shambolic show. PBKS need to win all their remaining games to qualify for the playoffs thus chances of them reaching the playoffs are grim.

Pat Cummins’ favourite memory of Virat Kohli won’t make Indian fans happy | Cricket News

Danijones10 months ago04 mins

Virat Kohli and Pat Cummins will face off once again in IPL 2024 on Thursday when Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) host Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad, and while the camaraderie between two champion cricketers was evident during a joint training session, Cummins didn’t miss a chance to be a little cheeky when he was asked about his favourite memory of Kohli. IPL 2024: Results | Points Table In the ‘Captains Speak’ segment of a Star Sports show, Cummins, who also led Australia to the 2023 ODI World Cup triumph, was asked a few questions about Kohli as the two gear up for another match-up. “Someone who has played so much cricket, I admire him for how much he gets up for every game and gets into the contest, whether he is batting or in the field. He plays 100 days a year and he’s up for every single of those games,” Cummins said. Interestingly, Kohli was bowled by Cummins for 54 in the 2023 ODI World Cup final, which proved to be one of the game-changing moments of the title clash that Australia went on to win by six wickets. It was Australia’s record-extending sixth ODI World Cup triumph. WATCH VIDEO Possibly with that dismissal at the back of his mind, Cummins chose to be cheeky in his reply to another question.“My favourite memory of Virat? Can I say when I get him out?,” he said, and followed it up with a smile.ALSO READ: How to watch IPL in Canada In RCB’s earlier match against the Sunrisers in this IPL season, Kohli scored 42. The game saw SRH scoring IPL’s highest ever total as they put up a gigantic 287 for 3 on the board. RCB made a match of it in run-chase but ended up short (262 for 7) and lost by 25 runs. Kohli currently leads the Orange Cap standings with his tally of 379 runs in 8 matches, including one hundred and two fifties. He averages 63.16 and has scored his runs at a strike rate of 150.39. Cummins added that while both he and Kohli are competitive on the field, they are fairly relaxed off it.“We are both super competitive. I think off the field Virat is pretty relaxed and I am (also) pretty relaxed off the field,” said the SRH skipper.
