New Mumbai Indians captain Hardik Pandya had a night to forget as the 5-time champions suffered a 6-run defeat against his former side Gujarat Titans on Sunday. Hardik, leading MI in his first match as skipper, was also booed by fans at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. The jeers even got the commentators talking, with ex-England captain Kevin Pietersen admitting to be surprised as it was the first time he was coming across such an incident involving an Indian player.
Former England cricket team batter Kevin Pietersen was left stunned by Hardik Pandya getting booed by the Ahmedabad crowd during the IPL 2024 match between Mumbai Indians and Gujarat Titans on Sunday. This is the first time that Hardik was playing at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad since completing his sensational trade move from Gujarat Titans to Mumbai Indians and he received a heated welcome from the local crowd. Pietersen acknowledged the boos from the crowd on commentary and said that it is rare for an Indian cricketer to get booed on home soil.
Former England cricket team batter Kevin Pietersen and legendary India cricketer Sunil Gavaskar were extremely critical of Hardik Pandya's decision to bowl the first over during the match between Mumbai Indians and Gujarat Titans in IPL 2024 on Sunday. The MI skipper decided to start proceedings with the new ball instead of choosing star fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah - a choice that led to a lot of discussion in the commentary box. Things got worse as Hardik was taken to be the cleaners by GT openers Shubman Gill and Wriddhiman Saha with the all-rounder conceding 20 runs in his first six deliveries.
The start to IPL 2024 was a forgettable one for Royal Challengers Bengaluru. The star-studded side slumped to a six-wicket loss to Chennai Super Kings at the Ruturaj Gaikwad-led side's home ground. Batting first, RCB encountered a top-order collapse before Dinesh Karthik and Anuj Rawat stitched a 90-plus stand to take RCB over 170. But CSK chased down the target with more than an over to go. Former India captain Sunil Gavaskar explained what Royal Challengers Bengaluru could have done differently against Chennai Super Kings in the opening match of the TATA IPL 2024.
The India vs England Test series is done with a fresh-faced Rohit Sharma-led side winning the contest 4-1. Despite losing the first Test and missing the services of top players like Virat Kohli and Mohammed Shami, the Indian cricket team came back strong, boosted by some superlative display from a bunch of debutants. The victory saw India consolidate their position at the the top of the World Test Championship points table, while England are reeling among the bottom teams.
Star all-rounder Ben Stokes is set to become the 16th England cricketer to appear in 100 Tests, against India at Rajkot on Thursday. The 32-year-old England captain will join an elite club, including current internationals James Anderson and Joe Root, when he leads the tourists in the third of a five-match series currently all square at 1-1.
Former England captain Kevin Pietersen was over the moon after the Ben Stokes-led side managed to take a sizeable lead against India in the ongoing first Test in Hyderabad. England, who were bowled out for 246 in the first innings, had conceded a 190-run lead after India posted a mammoth 436. However, at the end of Day 3, England took a 126-run lead courtesy vice-captain Ollie Pope's unbeaten 148. Pope hit 17 boundaries after surviving a few close chances, steering England to 316/6 at stumps.
