Rajasthan Royals (RR) spinner Ravichandran Ashwin praised right-arm seamer Sandeep Sharma following his brilliant performance against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 on Sunday. Riding on Sanju Samson's onslaught and Trent Boult's brilliance, RR started their IPL 2024 campaign with a win at home as RR registered a 20-run victory against LSG at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium.
Rajasthan Royals paceman Sandeep Sharma welcomed a rule change in the Indian Premier League (IPL) that allows bowlers to send down two bouncers per over, saying it would keep batsmen guessing and make the game more unpredictable.
Skipper Sanju Samson inspired his side as Rajasthan Royals defeated Lucknow Super Giants by 20 runs in their Indian Premier League opener on Sunday.
Lucknow Super Giants skipper KL Rahul didn't want to read too much into his team's 20-run defeat at the hands of Rajasthan Royals in their opening IPL game but admitted that none of the teams have been able to crack the Powerplay code in the first week so far. Two bouncer per over rule has been introduced in IPL from this season and LSG were bounced out in the first six overs of their chase of 194, reducing them to 47 for 3. Rajasthan Royals were a shade better at 54 for 2 in their first six overs. Both Devdutt Padikkal and Rahul needed to undergo concussion protocols after being hit on the helmet by Trent Boult. "It is just the first game and I am not going to make too much out of it or over-analyse," Rahul said at the post-match presentation ceremony.
Skipper Sanju Samson led from the front with an unbeaten 82 to steer former champions Rajasthan Royals to confident 20-run win over Lucknow Super Giants in their IPL opener, in Jaipur Sunday. Samson hit half a dozen of sixes along with three fours in his 52-ball-knock, which was replete with spectacular hits in all parts of the ground. His knock provided Royals both impetus and stability after twin blows in the Powerplay. With Riyan Parag (43) also playing his part well by forging a 93-run association for the third wicket to consolidate for their side, Royals batting did come good in their opening game.
The 17th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) is about to get underway in a few days with fans eager to see their favourite franchises back in action. Mumbai Indians (MI), one of the most successful franchises in the competition's history, will be gearing up for a fruitful season under their new captain Hardik Pandya. Last year, Mumbai Indians reached the Playoffs but a quick-fire hundred from Gujarat Titans' Shubman Gill in Qualifier 2 helped them beat the Rohit Sharma-led MI.
India wicketkeeper batter Dhruv Jurel joined the Rajasthan Royals (RR) training camp ahead of the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 season. Jurel made his India debut recently during the five-match Test series against England, where he scored 190 runs after appearing in 3 matches and 4 innings. With IPL just less than a week away, Rajasthan would be looking to continue their high-flying performance after narrowly missing out on it in the last season and losing the final to Gujarat Titans a season before.
Ishan Kishan, a player who has been in the headlines for a long time, is preparing relentlessly for the new Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 season with the Mumbai Indians. Ahead of the start of the new campaign, Ishan shared a few words for the fans of the franchise in a video posted by the Mumbai Indians. In the video, Ishan issued a 'message for the people' as the wicket-keeper batter and his teammates intensify their training session before the start of the 17th season of the T20 league.
