Former India bowling all-rounder Dodda Ganesh has lashed out at Lucknow Super Giants skipper KL Rahul for the player's knock against Royal Challengers Bangalore in IPL 2023 on Monday. Chasing a target of 213 runs at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, Rahul failed to get going. While he struggled to score runs, his innings ended at 18 off 20 balls. He was dismissed by Mohammed Siraj in the 12th over of the game. Slamming the knock of Rahul, Ganesh didn't mince words and called it the "most hideous innings".
Delhi Capitals vice-captain Axar Patel feels skipper David Warner is trying his best to lead from the front, but things are not falling in place for the veteran Australian opener.

They are languishing at the bottom of the table without any points. Delhi Capitals scored 172 on the Ferozeshah Kotla pitch, which was chased down by the five-time IPL champions on the last ball, with skipper Rohit Sharma playing a captain's knock of 65.
MS Dhoni is well known for his playful relationship with his teammates and over the years, a number of cricketers have been the victims of his pranks. The latest player to fall for one of Dhoni's pranks was former Chennai Super Kings Dwayne Bravo who is currently with the franchise as the bowling coach. In a video posted on Instagram by the team, Bravo and Dhoni could be seen sitting at an event when the prank took place. A magician tied a balloon to a stick and handed it to Dhoni before it was popped leaving Bravo completely stunned. Bravo was completely surprised by the sudden sound and he ran away from the stage before returning to joke with Dhoni and the magician.
Defending champions Gujarat Titans, smarting from Rinku Singh's last-over blitzkrieg, would like to forget that nightmarish night and get back to winning ways when they take on gritty Punjab Kings in an Indian Premier League match in Mohali on Thursday. GT had several heroes on that electrifying night, including young Sai Sudarshan, Vijay Shankar and the hat-trick man from Afghanistan Rashid Khan, who led the side in place of unwell Hardik Pandya. But Rinku had other ideas.
David Warner scored his 58th half-century in the Indian Premier League (IPl) on Tuesday against Mumbai Indians.
