‘Go With Clear Mind, No Holding Back’: MI Hero Romario Shepherd After Win vs DC | Cricket News

[ad_1] A clear mind and a no holds barred approach at death overs hold key for Mumbai Indians' Romario Shepherd, who powered the five-time IPL champions to a 29-run win over Delhi Capitals in their IPL match in Mumbai on Sunday. The burly Guyanese all-rounder turned on the beast mode to hammer four sixes and two fours in the final over off South African pacer Anrich Nortje to collect 32 runs, finishing with an unbeaten 39 off just 10 balls. Courtesy Shepherd's blitz, Mumbai notched up their highest score at the Wankhede Stadium and also went on to record their first win of this IPL season.“Everyone wants to bat a bit and before they start hitting, get used to the condition a bit.

IPL 2024: All-Round Mumbai Indians End Losing Streak With 29-Run Win Over Delhi Capitals | Cricket News

[ad_1] Romario Shepherd's 10-ball 39* outmuscled Tristan Stubb's courageous 71 off 25 balls as Mumbai Indians ended its three-match losing streak in the IPL 2024 with a 29-run win against Delhi Capitals in Mumbai on Sunday. Conceding as many as 51 runs in the last two overs proved catastrophic for Delhi Capitals, whose bowlers remained wayward and batters lacked the spunk in the initial overs to go after MI bowlers, even though Stubbs went ballistic to make 25-ball 71 not out.The right-handed Stubbs smacked as many as seven sixes and three fours but his effort could only reduce the margin of defeat for Delhi, who lost a flurry of wickets towards the end to finish at 205 for eight in reply to Mumbai Indians' 234 for five. Once again poor quality of domestic talent in DC set-up proved to b...

Mumbai Indians “Pulled Off Burglary”: R Ashwin On Trade For This Player. It’s Not Hardik Pandya | Cricket News

[ad_1] File image of Indian cricket team and Rajasthan Royals star R Ashwin© YouTubeIndia all-rounder Ravichandran Ashwin has hailed Mumbai Indians (MI) move to trade West Indies star Romario Shepherd from Lucknow Super Giants (LSG).

[ad_1] The spectators at the Brian Lara Stadium in Tarouba were witness to a sort of comedy of errors involving Yuzvendra Chahal and Mukesh Kumar during the first T20I encounter between India and West Indies on Thursday. Kuldeep Yadav was clean bowled by Romario Shepherd on the first ball of the 20th over and with 10 runs needed off 5 balls, Chahal came out to bat. He had already made it all the way to the pitch when he was called back and it looked like the team management wanted Mukesh Kumar to bat at No. 10.
