MUMBAI (Reuters) - 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).
Washington Sundar has injured his bowling hand again, revealed Sunrisers Hyderabad head coach Tom Moody, raising doubts over the all-rounder's availability for the next game against Delhi Capitals. Sundar, who made a comeback in the game against the Gujarat Titans after missing three matches due to split webbing in his bowling hand, re-injured the same area while fielding against CSK on Sunday.
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).
Gujarat Titans, who have been remarkable in bouncing back from adverse situations, would look to seal a spot in the Play-offs when they clash with inconsistent Punjab Kings in the Indian Premier League (IPL), here on Tuesday. Gujarat, the IPL debutants, are clearly the team to beat in the competition having won eight out of nine games. A sixth consecutive win will make them the first side to enter the play-offs. A big reason for Gujarat's stellar run has been their ability to come back from tough situations. Whether it is Rahul Tewatia, David Miller, Rashid Khan or skipper Hardik Pandya -- they all have produced match-winning efforts during the course of the tournament. If one has failed, the other has risen to the occasion.
SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) pacer Umran Malik has been in sensational form this season and has won over fans, experts with his performances. Despite not being at his best against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on Sunday, the bowler managed to bowl the fastest delivery of IPL 2022 -- not once but twice. During the first innings of Match 46, Umran clocked 154kmph in the 10th over. He sent a full delivery on the stumps to Ruturaj Gaikwad, but the CSK opener smacked it for a four. The 22-year-old once again clocked 154kmph in the 19th over this time unleashing a yorker to MS Dhoni, who played it for a single. Having received plenty of praise due to his recent maiden IPL five-wicket haul, he once again sent Twitter in a tizzy.
Rajasthan Royals will look to get back to winning ways as they take on Kolkata Knight Riders in Match 47 of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. RR have been in excellent form this season, but their winning run was halted by Mumbai Indians. However, RR have largely relied on their talismans Jos Buttler and Yuzvendra Chahal, who are leading the Orange and Purple Cap charts, respectively. While their bowling has been exceptional this season, RR have been inconsistent with the bat when Buttler has not fired. South Africa batter Rassie van der Dussen is likely to get another chance in the team.
New Zealand cricket great Chris Cairns feels he can talk candidly about the pain of match-fixing allegations brought against him now that he has survived multiple health scares. The former allrounder spoke publicly for the first time Monday about the court battles to clear his name spanning 2012 to 2015. Interviewed on a podcasthosted by media company NZME, Cairns said the high-profile trials had consumed his life and that he had harboured "anger and animosity" after having his credibility scrutinised and his career effectively shredded -- even though he was never found guilty.
Kolkata Knight Riders will look to end their five-match winless run when they face Rajasthan Royals in Match 47 of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 at the Wankhede Stadium. After starting the season on a high note, KKR's form has massively dipped and they will look to get back to winnings ways. KKR's battling looks extremely unsettled, and the continuous chopping and changing has made things even worse. Star all-rounder Pat Cummins, who has missed the last three games, could make his return to the team. His presence will also add more depth to their batting.
