“Doesn’t Make Any Sense”: Sanju Samson Draws Wrath Of Experts Over Huge Captaincy Gaffe | Cricket News

[ad_1] Former Australia cricketer Tom Moody has raised questions over Rajasthan Royals (RR) skipper Sanju Samson's captaincy during their defeat to Gujarat Titans (GT) in IPL 2024.

“Can’t Score Runs From Dugout”: Experts Rip Into Delhi Capitals For Benching India Star | Cricket News

[ad_1] Former Australian cricketer Tom Moody stated that wicketkeeper-batter Prithvi Shaw's omission from the Delhi Capitals' (DC) playing XI "doesn't make sense" and suggested that DC should select 24-year-old batter for their upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 matches. Moody pointed out that, while Shaw has been unimpressive in recent seasons, selecting him over Bhui is a more plausible option given his international cricket experience. "It doesn't make sense due to the fact that you've got an Indian international player (Prithvi Shaw) in the dugout. Yes, he hasn't performed in the IPL like we had all hoped he would, but you can't score runs from the dugout," speaking to ESPNcricinfo Moody stated.Shaw was benched for Delhi's first two games this season.
