Sir Vivian Richards and Carl Hooper called Brian Lara’s latest book a lie, know the whole matter
According to the report, Brian Lara had said in his book that Carl Hooper was a better player than him and Sachin Tendulkar. Sir Vivian Richards and Carl Hooper (Pic Source-X) Former batsman Brian Lara recently wrote something in his book Lara-The England Chronicles about his former teammates Sir Vivian Richards and Carl Hooper which neither of them liked at all and they criticized Brian Lara fiercely for this. Carl Hooper has said that he and Sir Vivian Richards were very offended that Brian Lara’s recently released book has written a lot of wrong things about them. Hooper said, ‘Sir Vivian Richards and I are very disappointed after reading Brian Lara’s recently released book. In this, not only have I and Sir Vivian Richards been portrayed in a wrong way, but many false allegations have also been made against us. The way he has portrayed us in this book is not correct at all.’ According to the report, Brian Lara had said in his book that Carl Hooper was a better player than him and Sachin Tendulkar. Not only this, he had also written a lot about Sir Vivian Richards in this book. Brian Lara made a very surprising statement in his book about Carl Hooper and Sir Vivian Richards Both the former players gave a statement together that, ‘Sir Vivian Richards used to make them cry three times every week in the dressing room but Hooper only once. His voice was such that if you are not strong then you will have a lot of trouble with it. But I don’t think so. We did not have any trouble with his words at all. Hooper’s first captain was Sir Vivian Richards and he never had any problem with him. He always supported Hooper and praised him but everything is wrong in Brian Lara’s book due to which the families of both the former players have also been shocked. 5 Australian players who scored half-century in their debut IPL match IPL 2024: These 11 foreign players took crores of rupees but flopped IPL 2024: 5 players who hit the most sixes in the 19th and 20th overs of IPL 5 fastest bowlers in IPL history Who are the head coaches of all 10 teams in IPL 2024?

There was a lot of debate in the selection meeting! There was a lot of drama before Surya was made the captain, players were called
Rohit and Virat have returned to the team for the ODI series against Sri Lanka. Jay Shah and Hardik Pandya. (Image Source: BCCI/X) BCCI recently announced the squad of Team India for the Sri Lanka tour starting from 27th July. Three ODIs and three T20 series will be played between the two teams on this tour. The selectors took a lot of time to announce this series. It is believed that there was a lot of debate between Gautam Gambhir, who recently became the head coach of Team India, and the selectors and only then the team was announced for this tour. This selection meeting of Team India lasted for several hours over two days. If reports are to be believed, there were differences of opinion as well as heated debates in the meeting. During the meeting itself, many players were called and discussions were held with them about long term planning. It is being said that, Surya being selected as the vice-captain before Hardik in captaincy and Gill being selected as the vice-captain before Rahul in ODIs is a very important step taken for the future of Indian cricket. The Indian Express report claims that this selection meeting was different from all other meetings as it was full of heated debates and disagreements. Phone calls were made to the players and the long term planning of the team management was explained to them. Players showed more trust in Suryakumar Yadav than Hardik Pandya According to the Indian Express report, there was also a view in the team selection meeting that not making the current vice-captain of the T20 team, i.e. Hardik Pandya, the captain would be unfair to him. Especially when he has performed amazingly during the World Cup. An Indian Express report claims that due to the trust of the players, the scales tilted in favor of Suryakumar Yadav. The report states that the ‘feedback’ received by the BCCI was that the players ‘trusted Yadav more than Pandya’ and were comfortable working under him. Surya’s man management is said to have impressed the selectors. When Ishan Kishan was about to leave the Indian camp midway through the South Africa tour last year, Yadav tried to convince him to stay back.

Kevin Pietersen and Ambati Rayudu (Image Credit- Twitter X) Recently, former cricketer Ambati Rayudu, who played for the Indian team and Chennai Super Kings, made a big statement about former Indian captain and RCB Orange Cap winner Virat Kohli in the final match of IPL 2024. Rayudu had said about Kohli in the IPL final that winning the Orange Cap does not mean winning the IPL trophy. Also, this was not the first time that Rayudu has made a statement about Kohli or his team Royal Challengers Bangalore. Rayudu often remains a topic of discussion on social media due to his statements. So, when Rayudu made a statement about Kohli in the final match, he has been facing constant criticism ever since.

Example – Ambati Rayudu and I were talking after the IPL final, and suddenly the abuse towards Ambati turned into a flood. Please stop this. See this tweet of Kevin Pietersen Come on guys! This tribalism with/against Indian players on social media needs to slow down! Example- @RayuduAmbati and I was messing around after the IPL final and all of a sudden that banter has turned into an avalanche of abuse towards Ambati. PLEASE stop it? — Kevin Pietersen🦏 (@KP24) May 28, 2024 On the other hand, if we give you information about the IPL final, Kolkata Knight Riders won a one-sided match against Sunrisers Hyderabad by 8 wickets.

Sunrisers Hyderabad have secured their place in the final by winning against Rajasthan Royals in the second qualifier held on 24 May. In this way, now Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and SRH will face each other in the final to be held on 26 May. Before this title match, former England cricketer Kevin Pietersen has given his opinion and believes that KKR has a better chance of winning. Pietersen believes that KKR’s spin attack and their recent record against SRH seem to benefit them in the crucial match. KKR has the advantage- Kevin Pietersen He said on Star Sports Cricket Live, I didn’t like the way Sunrisers Hyderabad lost in Ahmedabad and I think it will put them on the backfoot early on Sunday. I didn’t like the way Pat Cummins finished that game. Travis Head bowled and Shreyas Iyer hit a brilliant shot. Pietersen said, knowing that they beat SRH just a few days ago, KKR’s confidence will be very high in the final. So it will be difficult for Sunrisers to move forward, but I think they will do well, because they have won in SA20. So they know how to win. He continued, “The toss is 50-50. You have to consider the possibility of dew and be ready even if dew doesn’t come. It’s all about mindset and confidence. I think KKR have an advantage, given the way they have played, their win in Qualifier-1 and their preparation in the last three or four days.”

This match between the two teams will be played at Eden Gardens. Rohit Sharma (Image Credit- Twitter X) The 60th match of the ongoing season of IPL 2024 will be played today on May 11 between Kolkata Knight Riders and Mumbai Indians (KKR vs MI). Let us tell you that this match between the two teams will be played at the Eden Gardens ground in Kolkata. However, before the start of this match, former Indian cricketer and well-known cricket commentator Akash Chopra has given a big statement. Chopra says that Eden Garden is called Rohit Garden. It is noteworthy that Mumbai Indians are already out of the race for the playoffs of the ongoing IPL season. However, when Mumbai plays the match against KKR, it will look to make up for the 24-run defeat against KKR at home. Let us tell you that Mumbai has 8 points with 4 wins in 12 matches, and it became the first team to be eliminated from the tournament. But by winning the match, it can extend its wait to reach the playoffs a little longer. Before KKR vs MI match, Aakash Chopra gave a big statement about Rohit Sharma Let us tell you that before the start of the Kolkata Knight Riders vs Mumbai Indians match, Aakash Chopra said through his YouTube channel – First of all and with great love, Eden Gardens is called Rohit Gardens, because he has a lot of players there. There are records. Rohit plays very good cricket here. But the way KKR is playing the match, it looks like a strong team. He has won many matches on his home ground. Chopra further said- I was thinking that finally Rohit is going to score runs, because now four or five matches have passed. They have not scored any runs on a bouncy wicket. He (Rohit) likes this ground and the team. Therefore, in this match, Rohit Sharma is a player on whom everyone will keep an eye.
