IPL 2024: On Rohit Sharma's Golden Duck vs Rajasthan Royals, Ex-England Star's 'Philosophical' Verdict
Rohit Sharma was dismissed for a golden duck as Mumbai Indians slumped to their third consecutive defeat in IPL 2024 against Rajasthan Royals on Monday. Rohit fell victim to Trent Boult on the fifth ball of the MI innings as he ended up playing away from his body and Sanju Samson took a sharp catch behind the stumps to complete the dismissal. Former England cricket team fast bowler Stuart Broad analysed the dismissal on Star Sports and said that it was a proper setup from RR and their celebration showed how much planning went behind the wicket. He also pointed out that there was not much Rohit could have done about it before adding that the dismissal may result in the batter having 'philosophical' thoughts.
"Virat Kohli Wasn't Able To Time The Ball": England Great On Where 'Unbalanced' RCB Faltered vs KKR
The IPL 2024's start for Royal Challengers Bengaluru has been placid to say the least. The side have lost two out of three games and the first team this edition to not lose a match at home. The RCB side were bolstered by an unbeaten 83 from Kohli as they scored 182/6. But KKR reached the target with more than three overs to spare. Speaking on Star Sports, former England cricketer Stuart Broad spoke on the inadequacies of the RCB bowling line up. "In times like that you want to heap praise on KKR, you know six visits in a row they've taken a victory in Bengaluru. You have to look at the RCB bowling too, just watch KKR bowl cutters and slower balls and into the pitch, very difficult to one of the best batters ever, Virat Kohli, who wasn't able to time the ball consistently throughout," he said.
"This Can't Be True": Stuart Broad Reacts To Reports Of Virat Kohli's 'T20 World Cup' Snub
Amid reports of star India batter Virat Kohli's possible ouster from India's T20 World Cup squad, former England pacer Stuart Broad has shared his views on the same. Kohli has been out of action since the conclusion of T20I series against Afghanistan, and also missed the five-match Test bilateral against England, citing personal reasons. Ahead of his return to action in the Indian Premier League (IPL) later this month, reports have emerged over the past couple of days that Kohli might not be in Team India's plans for the T20 World Cup 2024, scheduled to be played in West Indies and the USA.
"Is Cheteshwar Pujara's International Career Over?": England Great's Tough Question As Indian Batters Struggle In Ranchi Test
Legenday pacer Stuart Broad has been following the India vs England fourth Test quite closely. The former right-arm England pacer is also taking it to social media to fire in his opinions about the game and also about the two teams. On Saturday, the Indian top and middle-order, barring Yashasvi Jaiswal and Dhruv Jurel, faltered against the England spinners. Shoaib Bashir picked four wickets while Tom Hartley scalped two. Commenting on India's batting, Broad asked if out-of-favour Test batter Cheteshwar Pujara's international career is over. He suggested that India could have included the veteran in the team as it would have provided them "some consistency" in the absence of star batter Virat Kohli.
6 Sixes In 1 Over: Andhra Pradesh Youngster Makes History, BCCI Issues 'Alert'. Watch
In cricket, there are several feats which are widely celebrated. Hitting six sixes in an over is one of the them. Who can forget the six sixes hit by Yuvraj Singh at the 2007 T20 World Cup off England's Stuart Broad. West Indies legend Sir Gary Sobers was the first person to achieve the feat in a major match. Playing in a County Championship for Nottinghamshire in 1968, Garfield Sobers hit Glamorgan's Malcolm Nash for six sixes in an over. Then Ravi Shastri became the first Indian to hit six sixes in an over in 1985 for Bombay against Baroda.
