Ravindra Jadeja. From becoming the Chennai Super Kings captain to leaving the post, now the Saurashtra allrounder is set to be ruled out of the remaining part of the tournament. Jadeja suffered an injury in the upper body while fielding in CSK's loss against Royal Challengers Bangalore and was consequently ruled out of their match against Delhi Capitals which they won handsomely.
Virat Kohli is hopeful that his friend and South African superstar AB de Villiers will be back at the Royal Challengers Bangalore in a new role next year. De Villiers had been a big part of RCB family before he retired from all forms of cricket last year. "I miss him a lot. I talk to him regularly. He was in the US recently with his family watching golf... He is keenly observing RCB and hopefully he will be here next year in some capacity," Kohli said during a light-hearted chat posted on RCB's Twitter handle.
Former South Africa cricketer AB de Villiers was one of the biggest names in the Indian Premier League, but the long-time Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) announced his retirement from all forms of cricket ahead of the ongoing season. One of the most versatile batters, aptly nicknamed Mr 360, de Villiers was one of the most crucial player for RCB over the years, often rescuing them from difficult situations. Although RCB are in contention for a play-off spot this season, his absence has been felt by the team, especially in a few defeats where the batting let them down.
Gujarat Titans (GT) defeated Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) by 62 runs in Match 57 of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune, on Tuesday. An unbeaten knock of 63 runs off 49 balls by Shubman Gill helped GT reached 144 for four in 20 overs, setting a target of 145 runs. Meanwhile, Avesh Khan took two wickets for Lucknow. Chasing a target of 145 runs, LSG were bowled out for 82 in 13.5 overs. Meanwhile, Rashid Khan was in top form and took four wickets in 3.5 overs.
IPL 2022 game against Rajasthan Royals, Punjab Kings' players could be seen having a great time at their camp, in a very quirky manner. A video of some overseas players of PBKS were seen delivering a few iconic dialogues from Bollywood films. The video garnered a lot of praise from fans all over the world. The video began with England all-rounder Benny Howell trying to mimic actor Shah Rukh Khan's iconic dialogue "Bade bade deshon mein aise chhoti chhoti baatein hoti rehti hain, Senorita," from the blockbuster film Dilwale Dulhania Le Jaayenge (1995).
Mumbai Indians suffered their ninth loss of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season as they suffered a 52-run defeat against Kolkata Knight Riders at Dr DY Patil Sports Academy on Monday. The batters displayed a disappointing performance as Mumbai Indians failed to chase down KKR's score of 165. Jasprit Bumrah had taken five wickets for the Rohit Sharma-led side to restrict KKR to 165 but the batters failed to capitalise. However, during KKR's innings, a funny incident happened and it left everyone including Rohit Sharma in splits.
Virat Kohli recorded his third golden duck of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season against SunRisers Hyderabad on Sunday and once again a debate has started on whether the batter should take a break to rejuvenate himself. The idea was first floated by former Team India head coach Ravi Shastri, who has followed Kohli from close quarters. Whether the former India skipper needs a break was even discussed on-air by Harsha Bhogle, Matthew Hayden and Sunil Gavaskar while they were doing commentary for the match between RCB and SRH.
Finisher's astounding form for RCB has led to calls for his inclusion in Team India's T20 World Cup squad for Australia later this yearJust a few months ago when India were playing a Test series in England, Dinesh Karthik was commentating for the official broadcasters. Following his success at the com box, when TOI asked him whether he would follow it up next season as well, Karthik said: "I will, if it doesn't interfere with my cricket. My dream is to still play for India." At that point, that dream seemed a little far-fetched. But following his exploits with the bat in this IPL for Royal Challengers Bangalore, a spot in the T20 World Cup squad in Australia in October-November doesn't look like a distant dream anymore. Karthik has been in outstanding form in this IPL, batting at a strike-rate of 200 coming late down the order and taking RCB to the cusp of qualification. Such has been his influence as a finisher that RCB skipper Faf du Plessis said on Sunday after his team's win against Sunrisers Hyderabad that he was planning to retire himself out just to let Karthik in. "If DK keeps hitting sixes like that, everyone wants to have him in as long as possible. In fact I wanted to get out or retire myself out to let him have a go," Du Plessis said of Karthik's 8-ball 30.
