“On the basis of a good IPL season, he can come back to the team” – Aakash Chopra said about Shreyas Iyer
Shreyas Iyer and Aakash Chopra (Image Credit- Twitter) Many cricketers have a good chance to improve their career in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024. Players can prove their ability in the world’s biggest T-20 league. In this Mahakumbh of cricket, many players have confirmed their place in Team India by performing brilliantly. At the same time, the players who are dropped from the Indian team also return to the team after performing well in the IPL. Something similar can happen with cricketer Shreyas Iyer in the upcoming IPL season. Iyer has been in and out of the Indian dressing room for some time now. Even for the upcoming T-20 World Cup, his place in Team India is not considered confirmed. Now former Team India cricketer Akash Chopra has given his opinion on this matter. Aakash Chopra gave a big statement regarding Shreyas Iyer Aakash Chopra believes that IPL can prove to be a game-changer for the Kolkata Knight Riders captain to stake his claim in the T20I team. They said that, “Shreyas Iyer – You are out of the T20I list at the moment. However, you can bounce back on the back of a great IPL. If he performs well, scores more than 550 runs, which he probably will, will anyone ignore him? Then you will say that he should be kept in the team because he is a powerful player. At this point, he’s out of that loop. At some stage, he may come back, but for him, it is extremely important to have a good IPL. This is a wonderful opportunity.” KKR has many talents who are capable of making a place in the Indian team. One such player is Suyyash Sharma. The spinner took wickets at an impressive economy rate of 8.23 in 11 matches in IPL 2023. Looking at his wicket-taking ability, it seems that only Varun Chakravarthy and Sunil Narine were ahead of him in terms of wickets. The former cricketer said, “I see a big opportunity for Suyyash Sharma this season. Last time was his first season and he impressed a lot. “However, it will be interesting to see how he utilizes that opportunity in the second season.”
IPL 2024: ‘On the basis of bowling, the team can lift the trophy this season’ – Irfan Pathan’s big statement about RCB
The last season of IPL was a mixed bag for RCB, the team was able to win 7 out of 14 matches. RCB Team & Irfan Pathan (Photo Source: Getty Images, Irfan Pathan/Instagram) Irfan Pathan on RCB: IPL 2024 The first match will be played between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Chennai Super Kings on March 22 at Chepauk. Royal Challengers Bangalore is one of the most famous franchise teams in the world. RCB has reached the IPL finals thrice, but the team has not been able to win the trophy even once. Faf du Plessis has been leading the team for the last two seasons after leaving the captaincy of Virat Kohli. Last season the team had a mixed bag, RCB was able to win 7 out of 14 matches. This season the team would like to win the trophy by showing excellent performance. RCB’s batting lineup for IPL 2024 looks great, but experts are constantly giving their views regarding the bowling attack. Meanwhile, former Indian veteran player Irfan Pathan believes that Royal Challengers Bangalore can win the first IPL title this season on the basis of its strong bowling attack. IPL 2024: they have express speed– Irfan Pathan Former Indian player Irfan Pathan became a part of Star Sports’ show Game Plan. During the show, Irfan Pathan while talking about the chances of RCB and Virat Kohli winning the first IPL title this year, said, ‘Now he (Virat Kohli) has got a team, as far as batting is concerned, I really feel that batting has become longer now, which was not the case some time ago. Irfan Pathan further said, ‘Many people are not giving a chance to RCB because they feel that their bowling is not the same as before. I also think the bowling could have been better, but what they did is that they have express pace on that pitch. If you can bowl 140+ consistently on flat pitches like the Chinnaswamy pitch, sometimes it can work. You might be surprised that this bowling unit can lift a trophy. This will be a very special moment for Virat Kohli because he was wanting this since 2008 but he could not touch that trophy.
I don’t think the team for T20 World Cup will be selected on the basis of Afghanistan series- Parthiv Patel
Team India is ahead 2-0 in the T-20 series against Afghanistan. Ravindra Jadeja, Parthiv Patel and Akshar Patel. (Image Source: BCCI/Instagram) After taking an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series, India will take on Afghanistan in the third and final T20I at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru tonight. Before this match, JioCinema and Sports18’s cricket experts Saba Karim and Parthiv Patel talked about the role of Mukesh Sharma in the death overs and the change in India’s strategy in the final match and also answered many more questions. 1) On Mukesh Kumar’s role in Death Overs Parthiv Patel: I think he can definitely bowl in the powerplay, he has the skill. He has played a lot of first class cricket and knows what length to bowl, he is not a swing bowler. He is someone who hits the seam and hits back-of-length kind of balls. However, he has improved a lot as a death bowler. India may consider batting first in the third T20 match and put pressure on the opposition team. You can’t question anyone’s abilities but Mukesh Kumar has definitely improved as a death bowler. Will India bat or bowl first in Chinnaswamy? Saba Karim: I hope they chase the target in Bengaluru. Not only to keep the bowlers under question but also to test the depth of their batting. Lower-order players like Akshar Patel and Washington Sundar can be looked at. After the arrival of Hardik Pandya, you can understand whether you want to go with three seamers or spinners in the playing eleven or not? Parthiv Patel: We can also consider preparing slow wickets. The upcoming T20 World Cup will be held in America and West Indies where slow wickets are expected. Players may be tested for similar conditions. We all know that Chinnaswamy is a flat batting wicket, but turn can also be found on that wicket and India can consider doing so. In this way you can test your players and prepare the team for the World Cup. How important will this match be for Rohit Sharma Parthiv Patel: I do not see this series as a selection series for the World Cup. I don’t think any player’s performance or not will impact their chances of World Cup selection, especially when you are talking about Rohit Sharma or Virat Kohli. Once you pick them for the series, it means they are going to the World Cup. For Rohit Sharma personally he would like to score runs. He loves to create an atmosphere and if he is involved in it, he will want to make it big. Also read: Know who is Caribbean pacer Shamar Joseph, who is being discussed a lot in the cricket world?
