Legendary fast-bowler Curtly Ambrose believes the Rovman Powell-led co-hosts West Indies have enough talent to win an unmatched third ICC Men's T20 World Cup title when the competition begins from June 1. West Indies have won the Men's T20 World Cup twice in 2012 and 2016 respectively. But they have had an underwhelming run in the last two editions of the showpiece event. In 2021, Kieron Pollard-led West Indies failed to enter the knockouts after winning just one game in the group phase.

The notable name from India will be Ambati Rayudu, who has already retired from all forms of domestic cricket and is eligible to play. Rayudu also plays in the Major League Cricket (MLC) in the USA.
Mumbai Indians have no plans to rest ace India pacer Jasprit Bumrah ahead of the T20 World Cup even though they are out of contention for the IPL playoffs, said batting coach Kieron Pollard.

The win helped MI end their four-match losing streak and record only their fourth win in 12 matches.
Delhi Capitals (DC) young batting sensation Jake Fraser McGurk continued his scorching run of form at the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL), becoming the first-ever player to have three half-centuries in 20 balls or less in the history of the competition.

MS Dhoni was at his explosive best as he slammed a massive six in the final over of Chennai Super Kings' innings during the IPL 2024 match against Punjab Kings on Wednesday. The veteran wicket-keeper batter came out to bat with around 2 overs to go and ended up scoring 14 off 11 deliveries. In the penultimate delivery of the final over, Dhoni read the low full-toss from Arshdeep Singh perfectly and heaved it for a mammoth six over sweeper cover. This was the 66th six for Dhoni in the final over of an IPL innings - a record that already belongs to him with Kieron Pollard a distant second with 33.
