For the second time in his career, Maxwell has taken a break of this nature. The Australian himself asked to be rested from the game against Sunrisers Hyderabad on Monday night following a string of low scores this season."For someone like Glenn in that team (RCB), he being one of the 'Big Dogs' along with Virat, a lot of pressure comes on couple of players playing in that team. If they don't perform, the results tend to not follow them," Ponting, who has seen Maxwell from close quarters, told PTI in an exclusi...

[ad_1] File photo of MS Dhoni with the ICC Champions Trophy 2013© X (Twitter)It was in 2013 that the Indian cricket team had last won an ICC title - the Champions Trophy - and has since gone empty-handed at the grand stage in international cricket. The likes of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma have tried to lead the team to ICC titles but it remains MS Dhoni who holds the honour of helping India lift their last trophy on the grand stage. But, according to former England captain Michael Vaughan, the ICC Champions Trophy isn't even a 'real trophy'."India should win a lot more trophies. 2013 was the last trophy India won, right? ICC Champions Trophy? That's not a trophy really. There is the World Cup and the World Test Championship now, India lost both the finals there. There is so much talent ...

RCB vs SRH Game Was One Of Sixes, Not Of Batsmanship: Aaron Finch | Cricket News

[ad_1] Bengaluru:Sunrisers Hyderabad and Royal Challengers Bengaluru unleashing a barrage of sixes in their IPL match left little room for batsmanship and what mattered was who hit the most number of sixes, said Australia's T20 World Cup-winning skipper Aaron Finch. Travis Head's maiden T20 ton and Heinrich Klaasen's pillaging 67 drove SRH to a record-breaking 287 for three, which helped them go past their own 277/3 against Mumbai Indians at Hyderabad this March 27.Dinesh Karthik then smashed a blazing 35-ball 83 but RCB ended up losing the match in which 38 sixes were hit all around the park."It was never going to be a game where you talk about batsmanship. It's a game where you talk about who hit the most sixes and that was the difference," Finch said on Star Sports."They (RCB) had t...

Did MS Dhoni’s Hat-Trick Of Sixes Come At A Cost? Video Leaves Fans Worried | Cricket News

[ad_1] MS Dhoni in action for Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2024© X (formerly Twitter)MS Dhoni left both fans and experts completely spellbound as the Chennai Super Kings batter slammed Hardik Pandya for three back-to-back sixes during the IPL 2024 match against Mumbai Indians on Sunday. The Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai was witness to a trademark Dhoni knock that saw the veteran wicket-keeper batter score 20 runs in just 4 balls at an astonishing strike rate of 500. At 42 years old, Dhoni has vastly limited himself to a finisher's role for his franchise and his knock was instrumental in taking the total beyond the 200-run mark. However, it looked like the knock came at some cost as Dhoni was seen limping with padding around his knee in a video posted on social media.MS Dhoni last night at the...
