Young paceman Arshdeep Singh has been subjected to a lot of trolling on social media after India's loss to Pakistan in the Asia Cup Super 4 encounter. The youngster dropped a catch of batter Asif Ali in the 18th over and that proved to be a costly error as the big-hitter sealed the match for Pakistan in the 19th over.
India's Asia Cup Super 4 clash against arch-rivals Pakistan, ended with the Babar-Azam side walking away with a five-wicket win on Sunday, at the Dubai International Stadium. Despite losing the game, Team India had many positives from the game like return of Virat Kohli's vintage form, as he smashed 60 runs off 44 balls and a fiery partnership between the openers Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul. However, former India cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar feels that the problem is not with the Indian batting line-up as it is quite deep and it was just a case of lower-order not contributing much with the bat.
India batter and former skipper Virat Kohli has finally come back into form and so far in the ongoing Asia Cup 2022, he has been in phenomenal touch, scoring 154 runs in three matches. On Tuesday, Kohli posted an Instagram story, sharing a quote which read: "Notice the people who are happy for your happiness and sad for your sadness. They're the ones who deserve special places in your heart." Kohli wrote "Word" below this quote.
23-year-old pacer Arshdeep Singh was subjected to severe criticism on social media after he dropped a catch during the Asia Cup Super 4 match against Pakistan on Sunday at the Dubai International Stadium. Rohit Sharma-led Team India lost the match by five wickets and after that, Arshdeep is being attacked by trolls on social media. However, the pacer has told his parents that he is laughing at the tweets he is reading on the internet and he is only going to take positives out of it.
The T20 World Cup is less than two months away and all the teams are gearing up for the mega-contest. The Rohit Sharma-led Indian cricket team is also getting ready for the contest with some top-level series, including the Asia Cup. India have not won any ICC title since the 2013 Champions Trophy, and all eyes would be on Rohit's side to end that drought. In the last few months, several Indian players have performed well in the T20 format, and Hardik Pandya features prominently among them. So, when Ricky Ponting was asked on 'The ICC Review'to name the top-five players that he would select while going for a World T20I team, Pandya was one of the first picks.
After scoring 60 against Pakistan in the Asia Cup 2022 Super 4 clash on Sunday, Virat Kohli held a very emotional press conference. The former Indian cricket team captain said except MS Dhoni nobody got in touch with him after he quit Test captaincy last year. "I can say one thing that when I announced my resignation from Test captaincy, I got message from only one person with whom I player earlier, that is MS Dhoni. Many people have my number...many people give suggestions on TV...but the people who had my number, nobody messaged. The respect, the connection that you have with somebody, when that is genuine, it shows this way," Kohli said.
After facing a defeat against Pakistan in their opening game of the Super 4s stage at the ongoing Asia Cup, Rohit Sharma-led Team India will look to change their fortunes around when they square off against Sri Lanka at the Dubai International Stadium on Tuesday. India had suffered a five-wicket defeat at the hands of Pakistan and they need to win against Sri Lanka in order to keep their hopes alive of making it to the final. It would be interesting to see what combination Team India goes in with and whether the likes of Yuzvendra Chahal and Rishabh Pant retain their place in the playing XI.
India face Sri Lanka in a must-win game at the Dubai International Stadium on Tuesday. A win in the Asia Cup encounter will keep Rohit Sharma and company in contention for a final berth while a loss will more or less knock them out of the competition. In their first game of the Super 4 stage, India lost to Pakistan, while their next opponents Sri Lanka are coming on the back of a four-wicket win over Afghanistan. The match on Tuesday is a big game for Sri Lanka as well as their last match of Super 4 will be against another tough opponent Pakistan.
