Recently, in the high scoring match played between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Mumbai Indians in IPL 2024, the dominance of the batsmen was seen. The two teams faced each other in the eighth game of the tournament at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on Wednesday, March 27. Batting first, Sunrisers Hyderabad scored a record 277 runs. Hyderabad’s top order batsmen batted stormily in this match.
19-year-old young African fast bowler Kwena Maphaka, who was making his IPL debut in this match, bowled four overs and gave 66 runs. While bowling, Hardik Pandya took one wicket for 46 runs in this match. Jasprit Bumrah gave 36 runs in this match, while Gerald Coetzee gave 57 runs in his four over spell.
However, given the poor bowling performance, MI’s star batsman Tim David was seen defending the bowling plan that MI had made for its opposition. David praised Jasprit Bumrah and said that whenever and wherever Bumrah bowls, he proves to be very effective for MI.
Tim David defends Mumbai Indians’ bowling plan
Tim David was quoted as saying by India Today, “Obviously the plan is made as to who is going to bowl the first over. I think wherever Booms (Bumrah) bowls, he will make a big impact for us. So there is a lot of confidence in where he wants to bowl. And I think we’ve seen that in two games.”
Mumbai Indians suffered two consecutive defeats as they lost the match against Sunrisers Hyderabad by 31 runs. The Hardik Pandya-led side, placed ninth with zero points, will be keen to improve and perform better in their upcoming fixtures. Five-time champions Mumbai Indians will now face Rajasthan Royals next. This match will be played on April 1 at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.
AUS vs IND 2024-25: Umpire Simon Taufel made special comment on KL Rahul’s controversial DRS out in Perth Test
There is a special discussion in the cricket world regarding Rahul’s dismissal. Australia vs India, 1st Test (Image Credit- Twitter X) India is facing Australia in the first match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series from November 22 at the Optus Stadium in Perth. In the match, stand-in captain Jasprit Bumrah has won the toss and decided to bat first, which has not proved right for the team. However, there is a lot of discussion in the cricket world about the way experienced batsman KL Rahul was out in the match. After defending a lot of the ball, Rahul was slowly building his innings, but he was unfortunately given out in the 23rd over of the Indian innings. Mitchell Starc came to bowl this over of the Indian innings for Australia and in this over, he bowled the second ball of length to Rahul, which went very close to the bat. During this, other players including the bowler appealed, but the onfield umpire did not give the player out. But during this, captain Pat Cummins took DRS review and the third umpire gave Rahul out. But in UltraEdge it was clearly seen that the ball had hit the pad saved from the bat. On the other hand, now experienced umpire Simon Taufel has reacted to Rahul’s DRS out. Simon Taufel reacts to Rahul’s DRS out Let us tell you that Simon Taufel, while discussing with 7 Cricket about Rahul’s dismissal in the Perth Test, said – We saw in that side on shot that there was a spike on the RTS and the bat was away from the pad, in other words the bat. The lower part did not reach the pad. So rotating it in its natural course, you would have seen the second spike (on the sneako, to indicate the bat hitting the pad) come in more than if it had been rotated all the way. So former cricketer Matthew Hayden, who was commenting during this time, said – We are assuming that (Snikko) could be the outer edge of the bat, but it cannot be so. Well, the umpire’s decision is the final decision, and the player cannot protest against it. Due to this decision of the umpire, Rahul had to return to the pavilion after being out on the score of 26 runs in 74 balls.
