As Samit Patel limbers-up for the 20th T20 campaign of his Notts Outlaws career, the green and gold stalwart has reflected with irony upon his ignominious beginnings in the format.
The Royal Challengers Bangalore dressing was a happy space on Wednesday night. It had every reason to feel so, for they had just defeated Lucknow Super Giants in the Eliminator of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. The Faf du Plessis-led RCB will now face Rajasthan Royals in the Qualifier 2 in Ahmedabad on Friday. The winner of the contest will face Gujarat Titans in the final on Sunday. RCB, who are yet to win an IPL title, is naturally brimming with expectation.
Key: Anderson and Broad back in England Test contention
Lucknow Super Giants lost the IPL 2022 Eliminator to Royal Challengers Bangalore by 14 runs on Wednesday at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata and with that their maiden season in the tournament came to an end. It was a disappointing end for the team as they had several opportunities of driving home the initial advantage given to them by their bowlers. But some clumsy fielding meant the duo of Rajat Patidar and Dinesh Karthik took RCB to a total of 207 runs, which turned out to be a bit too much for KL Rahul's men to chase.
Sri Lankan seamers cut through the Bangladesh top order in the second innings after centuries from Angelo Mathews and Dinesh Chandimal gave the visitors a commanding lead in the second Test in Dhaka on Thursday.
The KL Rahul-led Lucknow Super Giants' Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 campaign ended on Wednesday as his team lost the Eliminator to Royal Challengers Bangalore. Chasing a target of 208, LSG looked on track in the chase until the time Rahul was at the crease. The LSG skipper scored 79 off 58 balls at a strike-rate of 136.20. He fell in the 19th other and then his team fell short by 14 runs. Sanjay Manjrekar, former Indian cricket team player, was not impressed about the speed with which batter scored. Rahul, who is also the India captain for the upcoming T20I series against South Africa, has not had a strike-rate of 140 or more in the last four editions of the IPL.
Sri Lankan seamers cut through the Bangladesh top order in the second innings after centuries from Angelo Mathews and Dinesh Chandimal gave the visitors a commanding lead in the second Test in Dhaka on Thursday. Bangladesh were a dangerous 34-4 at stumps on the fourth day and still need another 107 runs to ward off an innings defeat. The visitors were all out for 506 runs in the day's final session, with Shakib Al Hasan claiming his 19th Test five-for and pacer Ebadot Hossain finishing 4-148.
