USA vs WI, ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifiers, Live: United States Of America take on West Indies in the Match 2 of the ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifiers in Harare. Both teams have won four of their last five games, and will hope to kick off the campaign on a winning note.
Rohit Sharma is a captain who has led Mumbai Indians to 5 titles in the Indian Premier League (IPL). Yet, some feel he doesn't get the sort of credit he deserves for his leadership. After uncapped pacer Akash Madhwal led MI to a crucial victory over Luknow Super Giants in the Eliminator with a fifer, Rohit received plenty of praise from the cricketing fraternity for allowing the young pacer the opportunity to deliver at this stage. But, Indian cricket legend Sunil Gavaskar doesn't feel Rohit gets the sort of credit that Chennai Super Kings skipper MS Dhoni does.
MS Dhoni missed out as former Chennai Super Kings star Suresh Raina picked his best team of IPL 2023. Raina, who played for CSK for the majority part of his IPL career and won four titles with them, named Gujarat Titans' skipper Hardik Pandya as the captain of his team instead of Dhoni. Meanwhile, the wicketkeeper-batter that Raina picked in his team was West Indies and Lucknow Super Giants player Nicholas Pooran. He picked Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill as the openers for the team, while Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav and Rinku Singh followed. Ravindra Jadeja, Mohammed Shami, Mohammed Siraj and Yuzvendra Chahal completed the XI.
'Mango' is a fruit we all know. However, in the recent days, it has become a symbol as the fans associate the fruit with the battle between Royal Challengers Bangalore star Virat Kohli and Lucknow Super Giants pacer Naveen-ul-Haq. The heated clash between the duo during an LSG vs RCB game on May 1 became the highlight of the season's league stage with 'mango' also getting the spotlight post match. Naveen helped the fruit get a different kind of attention by posting "sweet mangoes" image on his Instagram story with the picture also containing a TV screen showing the clip of an IPL 2023 match between RCB and MI right after the dismissal of Kohli.
Lucknow Super Giants mentor Gautam Gambhir took to social media to post a special message after his side was eliminated from the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 on Wednesday. LSG were completely outplayed by Mumbai Indians in the IPL Eliminator thanks to an impressive five-wicket haul from young pacer Akash Madhwal as they were beaten by 81 runs. “Down but not defeated! Big thanks to the fans for showing immense love. We'll be back!” Gambhir posted on Twitter.
Little known Uttarakhand engineer Akash Madhwal bowled a dream spell as his five-wicket haul took five-time champions Mumbai Indians one step closer to summit clash after thrashing Lucknow Super Giants by 81 runs in IPL Eliminator, on Wednesday. Mumbai Indians scored 182 for 8 in 20 overs and it seemed 15 short given explosive batting firepower of Lucknow but Madhwal's incredible figures of 3.3-0-5-5 and some terrific ground fielding led by skipper Rohit Sharma saw Gautam Gambhir mentored side crumble for a paltry 101 in 16.3 overs. There were three run-outs in what turned out to be a forgettable evening for the Sanjiv Goenka owned franchise.
Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) and Mumbai Indians (MI) square off in the Eliminator of the Indian Premier League (IPL) at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Wednesday. The winner of this fixture will take on Gujarat Titans for a place in the final, while the losing team will crash out of the tournament. The batting unit finally clicking and a rather dramatic entry into the IPL play-offs will make MI a more confident side. LSG, on the other hand, would know all too well that they were eliminated at the same stage last year by RCB after being one of the most dominating sides.
The connection between Gautam Gambhir and Kolkata Knight Riders go way back in the Indian Premier League (IPL). The former India opener was a massive asset for the franchise in multiple seasons and he led them to two IPL titles in 2012 and 2014. However, the crowd showed no mercy to the present Lucknow Super Giants mentor as they chanted Virat Kohli's name as a taunt following the duo's on-field spat during the ongoing tournament. Gambhir, whose LSG side were able to qualify for the playoffs with a narrow win over KKR, gestured the crowd in lower the volume before breaking into a smile himself.
