Fast bowler Pat Cummins showed he was also capable of doing damage with the bat after equalling the record for the fastest fifty in the Indian Premier League (IPL), leading the Kolkata Knight Riders to victory over the Mumbai Indians on Wednesday.
Pat Cummins was an unlikely star with the bat as he smashed a joint-fastest 14-ball IPL fifty to power Kolkata Knight Riders to a stunning victory over Mumbai Indians on Wednesday.
Premier pacer Pat Cummins starred with the bat like never before, equalling the record for the fastest fifty in the IPL, including amassing 35 in an over, as Kolkata Knight Riders crushed Mumbai Indians by five wickets on Wednesday. Cummins blazed away to his fifty in just 14 balls, joining KL Rahul on the top of the leaderboard, while opener Venkatesh Iyer batted through the innings for his unbeaten 41-ball 50, as KKR completed a chase of 162 with as many as four overs to spare.
Five-time champions Mumbai Indians will look to register their first win of the ongoing IPL 2022 when they take the field against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on Wednesday at the Mumbai Cricket Association Stadium in Pune. Mumbai have lost their opening two matches this season and they would hope to return to winning ways in the contest against KKR. MI have a very good head-to-head record against KKR and they would hope for the rub of the green to go their way. In the 29 matches they have played against KKR so far, MI have managed to win 22.
Mumbai Indians are a beleaguered outfit right now, with two straight losses in their first two matches of the season. Mumbai traditionally of course are slow starters, but they will be itching to start the trend of turning things around sooner rather than later. Rohit Sharma and his men take on a buoyant Kolkata Knight Riders in their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 match at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune this evening. The five-time IPL champions lost their first match against Delhi Capitals by four wickets and then against a resurgent Rajasthan Royals by 23 runs.
Rohit Sharma is India's official ambassador for La Liga and has been used in their promotional content on many occasions. So it wasn't much of a surprise when the India captain revealed in an interaction that former Real Madrid star Zinedine Zidane is his favourite footballer. The Frenchman also opened up about his experience when he watched an El Clasico match between Barcelona and Real Madrid in 2020. While conversing to ANI, he said, "I would say live, I went to El Clasico in 2020, just before COVID struck. We were there in Madrid to watch the Real Madrid and Barcelona game. So that was my best-ever memory of La Liga so far. I want to create more memories with La Liga, but now because we play so many games, and there are so many restrictions right now. I'm not able to travel there and experience it".
Rohit Sharma and his Mumbai Indians outfit will be looking to get their first points of the IPL 2022 campaign when they take on Kolkata Knight Riders at the MCA Stadium in Pune on Wednesday. Mumbai Indians are the most successful team in IPL history with five titles and have an enviable record against KKR in the league as they have dominated the team in purple over the years. KKR though have got off to a decent start under new captain Shreyas Iyer, winning two of their three matches so far.
Ishan Kishan is one of the most talented young players going around in Indian cricket and this is the biggest reason, that the left-handed batter was bought by Mumbai Indians for a whopping Rs 15.25 crore in the mega auction before IPL 2022 season. In the ongoing edition of the cash-rich league, Kishan and Rohit are opening the batting for the franchise and the five-time champions have high expectations from the left-handed batter.
