LONDON :Joe Root has stepped down as England's test captain, the country's cricket board said on Friday, succumbing to pressure from influential figures within the game following a run of poor results capped by dispiriting tours of Australia and the Caribbean.
Varun Chakravarthy was the highest wicket-taker for Kolkata Knight Riders last season, claiming 18 wickets in 17 matches. KKR retained him for Rs 8 Crore ahead of the last player auction. But the mystery spinner from Tamil Nadu, who has the ability to bowl as many as seven different variations, has not really got going in the ongoing 15th edition of the Indian Premier League. He has played 5 matches in the tournament so far and managed to bag just 4 wickets. In the 20 overs he has bowled so far, he has given away 146 runs, at an economy rate of 7.30. With KKR, who are currently in second place on the points table, set to face Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) later today at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai, Varun though is not worried about the quiet start.
Delhi Capitals (DC) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) will face each other in Match 27 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 on Saturday at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. DC are placed 7th in the IPL 2022 points table with two wins and two losses. RCB, on the other hand, will have their task cut out if they are to continue their good run in this season so far. They are currently placed 6th with 3 wins from 5 matches.
Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) have had a good start to their season, winning three out of five matches. They slipped to defeat in their last game against Delhi Capitals, but will be looking to bounce back when they take on SunRisers Hyderabad at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai on Friday. KKR have most of their bases covered, but could end up making a few changes, with Aaron Finch available now and Ajinkya Rahane not impressing since anchoring their chase in the season opener. However, bringing Finch in would mean benching Sam Billings, who has looked good so far this season.
Ali Mabkhout struck the solitary goal from the penalty spot as Mumbai City suffered a narrow 0-1 loss against Al Jazira in a Group B match of the AFC Champions League here. It was Mumbai's second defeat in three games following their 0-3 loss against Al-Shabad side in their opener. Mabkhout's 40th-minute goal was the difference between the two sides as Al Jazira collected three points at King Fahd International Stadium on Thursday. Coach Marcel Keizer's men dominated the first half, registering 70 per cent ball possession by the break, but struggled to create real scoring chances as Mumbai City sat deep, happy to concede play and look to hit on the counter. The Islanders suffered an early blow as defender Amey Ranawade was stretched off to be replaced by Methab Singh just nine minutes into the game.
