MUMBAI : Chennai Super Kings skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni expects Ravindra Jadeja, freed from the burden of the captaincy, to make a bigger contribution for them, especially by fixing their sloppy catching in the Indian Premier League (IPL).
Umran Malik has been in blistering form for SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season and is currently third in the Purple Cap race with 15 wickets. During SRH's previous outing against Gujarat Titans (GT) in Mumbai, the pacer picked his maiden five-wicket IPL haul but couldn't prevent a defeat for his side. Malik accounted for the dismissals of Wriddhiman Saha, Shubman Gill, Hardik Pandya, David Miller and Abhinav Manohar. Ahead of SRH's fixture against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on Sunday, Sunil Gavaskar had some hilarious advice to batters on facing the bowler.
Cheteshwar Pujara scored his second double hundred in three matches on Saturday as he shared a century stand with Pakistan's Mohammad Rizwan for English county Sussex. Pujara made 203 -- his third century in three matches for Sussex -- with wicketkeeper Rizwan marking his home debut for the south coast club with 79. The pair put on 154 for the sixth wicket at Hove as Sussex piled up an imposing 538 in reply to Durham's first innings 223 in the Second Division of English cricket's red-ball County Championship.
IPL 2022, DC vs LSG Live Updates: Delhi Capitals face Lucknow Super Giants in Match 45 of IPL 2022 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. Delhi got back to winning ways in their previous match, having thrashed the Kolkata Knight Riders. LSG, on the other hand, remain in contention for a playoffs spot, having won six out of nine games so far. The KL Rahul-led side also won the earlier encounter between these two sides, and will look to do a season double over an inconsistent DC. Both teams are likely to retain their playing XI from the previous games. (LIVE SCORECARD)
Rahul Tewatia (43*) and David Miller (39*) are consistently making their mark as two of the most reliable finishers in this edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Against Chennai Super Kings, it was Miller’s unbeaten 94 along with Rashid Khan’s innings that took the Gujarat Titans to victory in the last over. On Saturday, against the Royal Challengers Bangalore at Mumbai’s Brabourne Stadium, the duo’s 79-run partnership in 40 balls again bailed out the Titans from a mid-match collapse to register a six-wicket triumph. Their finishing overshadowed former Indian captain Virat Kohli’s return to form with a half-century.
Royal Challengers Bangalore skipper Faf du Plessis on Saturday said Virat Kohli scoring his first half-century in 14 Indian Premier League (IPL) matches was a "huge step in the right direction". Kohli's fifty notwithstanding, RCB suffered a six-wicket defeat at the hands of table toppers Gujarat Titans in Mumbai. Asked about Kohli getting to his season's first half-century after a prolonged slump in form, du Plessis said, "It was a huge step in the right direction to get a solid 50. You want one of your top 4 to get the 70s in the future, so it's good." Gujarat Titans extended their dominance at the top of the table with the win over RCB in the Indian Premier League and closed in on a play-off spot in their inception year.
There's no hierarchy in a team of equals and that has precisely been the success mantra for Gujarat Titans, said ace all-rounder Hardik Pandya, who has taken to captaincy like fish takes to water in new franchise's inception year. Out-of-favour and struggling with his back injury since his T20 World Cup appearance in UAE last year, Pandya's elevation to captaincy for the new franchise had raised a few eyebrows ahead of the season. But the Titans have turned heads with eight wins from nine matches, five of them coming in a row after their Saturday's six-wicket win over Royal Challengers Bangalore to virtually seal their playoff berth in their inception year.
MUMBAI (Reuters) - Chennai Super Kings brought back Mahendra Singh Dhoni as their captain after Ravindra Jadeja stepped down from the role to focus on his game, the Indian Premier League (IPL) giants said on Saturday.
