Former India head coach Ravi Shastri on Tuesday said the IPL acts as one of the world's greatest physiotherapists, with its ability to get the injured players fit in time for the league. In his own inimitable way, Shastri said what many within the cricket fraternity, and outside of it, feel. "IPL is one of the greatest leagues in the world, and it's also one of the greatest physios in the world, because, before the IPL auction everyone wants to get fit, because everyone wants to play in the IPL," Shastri said during a press conference organised by Star Sports, the official broadcaster of IPL 2022.

Rajasthan Royals wicket-keeper batter Jos Buttler on Wednesday asserted they have the requisite wherewithal and firepower to end a 13-year-long title drought in the Indian Premier League, beginning here on Saturday. Buttler, who has been retained by inaugural IPL champions alongside skipper Sanju Samson and Yashasvi Jaiswal, said he is fresh, re-energised after the injury-forced break and is desperate to contribute to the team's goal this year. "It's a really exciting time for the team you know, to start a new cycle and build a new team. The aim here is to win the IPL, and I can't wait to contribute to that," Buttler said in a RR release. "We are delighted to have so many great players in the squad. Obviously, (Ravichandran) Ashwin and (Yuzvendra) Chahal are two of the best spinners in the world, and with a great pace attack, I think it's really exciting.

Australia batter Usman Khawaja has been in stunning form ever since making a comeback to the Test team. In his first match back since 2019, he hit twin centuries in the Ashes Test in Sydney earlier this year and has not looked back since. Playing as an opener in Australia's first tour of Pakistan in 24 years, he has racked up runs for fun, scoring one century and registering two scores in the 90s. His only other innings in the tour so far saw him hit an unbeaten 44.
