Chennai Super Kings head coach Stephen Fleming on Monday said the best time for MS Dhoni to come out to bat is from 15 overs onwards. Shikhar Dhawan's unbeaten 88 helped Punjab Kings beat Chennai Super Kings by 11 runs at the Wankhede Stadium here. Ambati Rayudu's 39-ball 78-run knock went in vain as CSK lost their sixth match of the season.
Punjab Kings (PBKS) pacer Arshdeep Singh was in fine form with the ball against Chennai Super Kings, taking one wicket and giving nothing away to the batters in the IPL 2022 clash on Monday. Arshdeep's solitary wicket was that of CSK batter Mitchell Santner and after dismissing the New Zealander, he broke into a celebration that even left the PBKS support staff in splits. Arshdeep disturbed the woodwork of Santner when the batter decided to shuffle across the line towards the off-stump. The wicket brought a huge smile on Arshdeep's face as he did a 'chariot riding' celebration.
Chennai Super Kings suffered a sixth defeat in eight matches in the ongoing IPL 2022, losing to Punjab Kings by 11 runs on Monday night. CSK once again made a poor start in the chase and despite a stunning assault from Ambati Rayudu left themselves too much to do towards the backend of the innings. The team's batting has failed to come together this season and with Moeen Ali injured, they experimented by sending New Zealand's Mitchell Santner one-down. The experiment failed to bear fruit as Santner was sent packing for 9 off 15 balls by Arshdeep Singh.
Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) will look to get back to winning ways as they face Rajasthan Royals in Match 39 at the MCA Stadium in Pune. RCB registered their second lowest score of IPL in their previous match against SunRisers Hyderabad (68), and will look to bounce back with a strong performance. RCB top-order has been pretty inconsistent this season, with the likes of Virat Kohli and Glenn Maxwell yet to hit the ground running. Despite facing a crushing defeat in the previous match, RCB are likely to remain unchanged.
Rajasthan Royals (RR) face Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in Match 39 of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season, at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune on Tuesday. Currently third in the IPL 2022 points table, RR have registered 10 points from seven games, including five wins and two defeats. Meanwhile, RCB are fifth in the league standings with 10 points from eight fixtures (five wins and three losses) and also a lower net run-rate. In their most recent outing, Rajasthan defeated Delhi Capitals (DC) in Match 34, winning by 15 runs. Jos Buttler smacked a century, registering 116 runs off 65 balls as RR posted 222 for two in 20 overs. Meanwhile, Prasidh Krishna bagged a three-wicket haul to restrict Delhi to 207 for eight in 20 overs.
The under-pressure Chennai Super Kings is set to miss their senior pro Moeen Ali for a few more upcoming games due to an ankle injury but head coach Stephen Fleming is hopeful the England all-rounder can make a quick recovery in a week's time. The England all-rounder had picked up the injury during a training session on Saturday. He missed Monday's game against Punjab Kings, which CSK lost by 11 runs. He last featured in CSK's three-wicket loss to Gujarat Titans on April 17.
Umran Malik has garnered immense praise from all corners of the world ever since his thunderbolts started shattering the woodwork of even the best batters in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022. Clocking 150 kmph on a regular basis, Umran Malik has made life difficult for batters to score against him. The pacer has gained a lot of fans and many think that he has everything in him to represent the country one day. This includes Umran's father Abdul Rashid. Speaking to TOI, Rashid spoke candidly about his son's ambitions in the sport and what he thinks he can achieve.
