"If MI Don't Qualify, Rohit Sharma Should...": Former England Captain's Advice

With the loss against Chennai Super Kings in their last match, Mumbai Indians became the first team to lose their first seven matches of a season in the history of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Captain Rohit Sharma and the management have tried various combinations, but have just not been able to go past the line, despite a few close matches. Former England captain Michael Vaughan suggested that Rohit, who is also the India skipper now, should take a breather if the franchise finds itself knocked out of contention for a spot for the knockout stages after a few more matches.

Drama unfolded in the final over of the match between Delhi Capitals (DC) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) as the former expressed their disappointment regarding an umpiring decision. With DC needing 36 runs off the final over, Rovman Powell took the game to his compatriot Obed McCoy, hitting him for three sixes off the first three deliveries.

SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) registered a thumping win against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) after bowling them out for just 68 runs in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 on Saturday after Gujarat Titans beat Kolkata Knight Riders by eight runs in a thrilling contest.

However, KKR faltered in their chase and Russell's 25-ball 48 was not enough to take them over the line. Then, Marco Jansen's incredible over where he dismissed RCB's top three aided by T Natarajan taking three wickets of his own helped SRH dismiss RCB for the sixth-lowest total in IPL history. Abhishek Sharma then smashed 47 off 28 as SRH made short work of the chase, winning by nine wickets in eight overs.

"He Is In That Dark Place": Kevin Pietersen After Virat Kohli's Second Consecutive Duck In IPL 2022

Virat Kohli is going through a lean patch and recorded back-to-back golden ducks in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season. In the last game against SunRisers Hyderabad, the RCB batter edged the first ball he faced off Marco Jansen to second slip and his expression after the dismissal said it all. So far, in the ongoing season, Kohli has managed to score just 119 runs from eight games and his form is starting to become a concern looking how India have to play a T20 World Cup this year in Australia.
