Aaron Finch's Cheeky Dig At Pat Cummins After Witnessing His Batting Ability In IPL

Pat Cummins had showed his batting prowess when he smashed 56 runs off just 15 balls in an Indian Premier League (IPL) game against Mumbai Indians while playing for the Kolkata Knight Riders. With this knock, Cummins equalled the record of KL Rahul for registering the fastest fifty in the history of the cash-rich league. Cummins' KKR and Australia teammate Aaron Finch has taken a cheeky dig at the pacer, revealing why he calls him as "IPL Pat".

IPL 2022 Points Table Update: Orange Cap, Purple Cap List DC vs RR Match 34

Rajasthan Royals (RR) defeated Delhi Capitals (DC) by 15 runs on Friday in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.

IPL 2022, KKR Predicted XI vs GT: Will Pat Cummins Retain His Place In The Team?

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will look to get their season back on track when they face Gujarat Titans (GT) in Match 35 of IPL 2022 at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai. KKR are on a three-game losing streak, and their bowling has been quite inconsistent. Their top-order has also failed to fire on most of the occasions, but Aaron Finch and skipper Shreyas Iyer's performance in the previous game will certainly be a morale booster. Pat Cummins has been under the scanner for his death bowling, and his place in the team could be in danger.

IPL 2022, KKR vs GT: Kolkata Knight Riders have task cut out against Gujarat Titans

Kolkata Knight Riders. The side that was highly spoken of by experts in the early part of the tournament after their rollicking start, is suddenly in a state of free fall, suffering a hat-trick of defeats. They will have to rectify a lot of aspects in order to bring their campaign back on track as they face the high-flying Gujarat Titans at the DY Patil Stadium in Mumbai in an afternoon match on Saturday. It might sound a bit strange, but the experienced two-time IPL champions will start as underdogs against the new entrants who are sitting pretty on the points table, having lost only one of their six matches. With a number of their key players failing to fire, the main challenge for the KKR management is perhaps to find able replacements, which they sadly lack. Going by present form, they could replace Pat Cummins and Varun Chakravarthy. Both their frontline bowlers have not only failed to provide breakthroughs — picking up just four wickets in seven matches — but have been leaking runs in buckets too.

Gopal has troubled the likes of Virat Kohli before and this aspect will be in mind of skipper Kane Williamson while picking his side. SRH are currently on the fifth spot in the points table and a win could help them gain crucial points going forward.

"Ahead Of Everyone Including Rishabh Pant": Harbhajan Singh's Choice For India's Finisher Role In T20 World Cup

With the T20 World Cup scheduled for this year, fans and experts will be wondering about who will be included in Rohit Sharma's squad for the showpiece event. During the T20 World Cup last year and also the 2019 ODI World Cup, India lacked a finisher and the selectors will be once again tasked with choosing the best option. Since India's exit from the 2019 ODI World Cup, Rishabh Pant has slowly cemented his position as Team India's finisher and he is expected to don the role once again in Australia, but former India cricketer Harbhajan Singh feels that there is another cricketer who can perform better in the role than Pant in the upcoming tournament. Speaking to Sportskeeda, Harbhajan said that he would put Karthik "ahead of everyone".
