“For So Many Years…”: Rohit Sharma On Tim David Being Next Kieron Pollard | Cricket News

[ad_1] IPL 2023: Tim David scored 45 not out off 14 balls against Rajasthan Royals on Sunday.© BCCI/IPLStar Indian opener Yashasvi Jaiswal's maiden century (124) went in vain as Tim David struck three successive sixes in the final over to Jason Holder to help Mumbai Indians register a thrillling six-wicket win over Rajasthan Royals on Sunday. Chasing the target of 213 runs at the Wankhede Stadium, MI needed 17 runs off the final over when David struck three sixes in a row to take his side home in what was also the 1000th match of IPL. The right-handed batter scored 45 not out off 14 balls with the help of 5 sixes and 2 fours.A similar role for MI was played by T20 great Kieron Pollard in the IPL previously. However, before the start of the 2023 season, the Carribean star decided to retir...

“Too Many Holes, No Balance”: Ex-SunRisers Hyderabad Coach’s Scathing Analysis Of Rohit Sharma’s Mumbai Indians | Cricket News

[ad_1] File photo of Mumbai Indians team.© AFPFormer SunRisers Hyderabad coach Tom Moody has reiterated that Mumbai Indians would not be able to make it to the final of the Indian Premier League 2023. After MI's 8-wicket loss to Royal Challengers Bangalore in their campaign opener, the Australian coach pointed out that the Rohit Sharma-led side has "too many holes". It is worth noting that MI had ended at the bottom spot in the points table last season -- their worst-ever performance in the history of the tournament -- and the disappointing loss to RCB in IPL 2023 puts serious doubt on their latest form."I'm concerned (for Mumbai Indians) because I sort of called it before the start of the IPL that I didn't think they'd be anywhere near the finals. I just feel there are too many holes am...

Will India Enter WTC Final With Win Over Australia? Ex-Cricketer Makes For Prediction | Cricket News

[ad_1] India lead Australia 2-1 in 4-match series© AFPRohit Sharma-led Team India is extremely close to sealing a berth for themselves in the World Test Championship final but Sri Lanka could pose a threat to them, in case they fail to beat Australia in the ongoing fourth and final Test in Ahmedabad. A win at the Narendra Modi Stadium will see India qualify for the WTC final, while a draw, a tie or a loss will see their fate depend on Sri Lanka, who are facing New Zealand in a two-match Test series.In any of the cases, Sri Lanka could upset India only if they beat New Zealand 2-0 in the Test series. Given the contests are taking place in New Zealand, the chances of a Sri Lankan victory become further less.Cricketer-turned-commentator Sanjay Manjrekar feels that India would qualify for th...

‘They Have Shown They Can Handle That Pressure’: Rohit Sharma Heaps Praise On Australian Spinners | Cricket News

[ad_1] File photo of Rohit Sharma.© AFPAustralia's two inexperienced spinners Todd Murphy and Matthew Kuhnemann were the X factor for Australia in their victory at the third Test match in Indore. Todd Murphy got Virat Kohli's wicket in the first innings while Kuhnemann got a five-wicket haul in the first innings as well. Even though Murphy failed to pick up a wicket in the second innings, he managed to limit the scoring options of the Indian batters. Kuhnemann though became the target of Indian batters as they went straight after him. Indian captain Rohit Sharma believes both spinners are crucial for Australia.In the pre-match conference, he said, "Both have been good. Murphy in the first game got 7 wickets and Kuhnemann got a fifer in the last test match. So they have got potential to e...

‘Can’t Give Entire Detail’: Rohit Sharma’s Straightforward Answer When Asked About Batting Mantra On Challenging Tracks | Cricket News

[ad_1] To each his own is India captain Rohit Sharma's mantra for batting on tricky tracks as he feels there can't be a one-size-fits-all approach, which could be detrimental to the team's greater cause. The Indian skipper has been the team's top scorer with 207 runs from three games, including a superb 120 in the opening Test in Nagpur. It is not just about the runs where he is head and shoulders above the rest of the specialist batters (Virat Kohli is second with 111 runs, while Cheteshwar Pujara has 98 runs), but Rohit has looked very assured while playing the Australian spinners, although a second big knock eluded him.So what is his method, and has he spoken about it with his colleagues? "See, I think when you are playing on these kinds of pitches you have to slightly stay ahead of t...

“Need To Have Application…”: Rohit Sharma On Secret Of Success On Indian Pitches | Cricket News

[ad_1] India captain Rohit Sharma feels there were no demons in the Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium pitch and said that application and planning are important for succeeding on spin-friendly sub-continent wickets. Before the start of the opening Test, which India won by an innings and 132 runs on Saturday, the Australian media had started debating the pitch, stating that the hosts had prepared a rank-turner to unsettle the left-handed batters in the touring side.But Rohit, who scored 120 runs in India's 400 all out in reply to Australia's 177 in the first innings, said a batter needs to adopt a few unorthodox ways to score on such surfaces."The last few years, the kind of pitches we are playing in India, you need to have application and some sort of plan to score runs," said Rohit a...
