"Utter Rubbish": Ex-Pakistan Captain Shuts Down IPL Commentator For Virat Kohli Criticism
Virat Kohli slammed his 46th half-century in the Indian Premier League on Monday against the Lucknow Super Giants. The former RCB captain reached the 50-run mark in 35 balls, registering his second fifty of the season.

Ben Stokes To Succeed MS Dhoni As CSK Captain In IPL? Moeen Ali Hints About Big 'Chance'
England all-rounder Moeen Ali believes compatriot Ben Stokes to be an obvious candidate for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captaincy in the Indian Premier League (IPL) once the current skipper MS Dhoni decides to call it quits. CSK splurged big money on Stokes in the IPL 2023 auction last year in December, but his performance has been underwhelming in two games so far, having scored 15 runs in two games and having bowled only one over. England's Test team has transformed under Stokes' leadership within nearly a year, winning 10 out of 12 matches under him. Moeen opines that Stokes' success with England makes him an easy choice to succeed Dhoni as a skipper, but feels that the change might not be imminent.
