New Zealand team head coach Gary Stead has not revealed what happened between him and Tim Southee after the test series defeat against Sri Lanka. According to ESPNcricinfo, Gary Stead said, ‘Just like we review after all Test tours and series, Tim Southee and I had a conversation among ourselves and only after that he decided to step down from the post of captaincy. He felt that this would prove to be right for the team and I also supported his decision. Tim Southee used to start for us and lead the team well: Gary Stead Stead further said, ‘It is very important to see different players in their role as a selector or coach as it brings out the best in the team. Tim Southee was a player who used to start for us and also lead the team and we always look for that option which can take the team forward. It is very important for New Zealand to win the three-match Test series against India. The New Zealand team must be feeling very sad due to the defeat against Sri Lanka but now all the players will be seen to perform well in the upcoming test series.

‘It wasn’t easy for me at all’ Ishan Kishan on being constantly ignored from the Indian cricket team

All these things happened to me when I was performing. Kishan further said- I was scoring runs at that time, and even then I was only on the bench. All these things happen in a team sport. But I felt tired from traveling with the team, and I was not feeling well. Therefore, I decided to take a break from the game. But sadly no one understood this except my family.

It will not be easy for any team to beat WI in Super 8, Rovman Powell made a big disclosure about his plan

The performance of the West Indies team has been very good so far in this important tournament and they have confirmed their place in the Super 8. Rovman Powell (Image Source: Getty Images) West Indies team captain Rovman Powell has agreed that playing the World Cup at home is no less than any pressure. Not only this, he also said that the West Indies team is fully prepared for the upcoming matches and it will not be so easy for any team to defeat them at home. Let us tell you, the performance of the West Indies team in this important tournament has been very good so far and they have confirmed their place in the Super 8. West Indies has played three matches in this important tournament so far and has won all three. Now they have to play their last group stage match against Afghanistan in St. Lucia. After this, the team will have to play its first match in the Super 8 on June 19 against England at the same venue. Rovman Powell said, ‘I think there is always pressure when you are playing the World Cup at home. But the question always remains how much pressure can you bear as a player personally. When I took over the captaincy 12 to 14 months ago, our ranking was 8th or 9th. It feels really good to see yourself at number three. Behind this is the hard work of all the players who together have performed well for their team. I have never played in the number three ranked West Indies team. I hope that this time something special happens for us and we keep increasing our ranking like this. There are many aggressive players in our team who can leave their mark in this tournament. In the upcoming match, we will perform in the same way as we have done so far. West Indies captain put forth his opinion on the St. Lucia pitch Rovman Powell further said, ‘St Lucia is a place where batsmen like to bat. But bowlers have also bowled very good spells on this ground. Especially the fast bowlers. However, if it is said who gets more profit, then I would say that there is 60% more help for the batsmen here while 40% is for the bowlers.’ The best thing for West Indies is that all their bowlers are in very good form at the moment and they will definitely want to leave their mark in the upcoming match against Afghanistan. All the teams will also know very well that it is not so easy to defeat West Indies in their own home. 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?

“It is very easy to sit in an AC room and say that he did not perform well….”- GG’s reply to Hardik’s trollers.

Hardik Pandya’s performance in IPL 2024, both as a captain and a player, was quite ordinary. Before the start of the season, Mumbai franchise replaced Rohit Sharma and made Hardik Pandya the captain of the team. But the fans including some players of the team did not like his decision at all. After which Hardik Pandya has been criticized a lot throughout the season. Be it fans or cricket experts, everyone has trolled Hardik for his poor captaincy. Meanwhile, former Team India cricketer and currently KKR mentor Gautam Gambhir has now come to the defense of Hardik Pandya. He has also fiercely targeted Hardik’s critics. Gautam Gambhir expressed confidence in Hardik Pandya’s abilities and backed him to make a significant impact in the 2024 T20 World Cup. During a conversation with Sportskeeda, Gautam Gambhir said, “T20 is a format where if you score 25 runs in 10 balls or take two wickets in a row, everything comes back. Also, there will be no captaincy pressure on Hardik Pandya in the T20 World Cup. Therefore, there he will play with complete freedom. It is very easy to sit in an AC room and say that he has not performed well.” Gambhir also believes that even if Hardik had scored 500 runs in IPL 2024, he would have faced criticism. They said that, “There are many factors that go into a player’s good performance. There is pressure of captaincy and team performance. Even if he had scored 500 runs, he would have been criticized for MI’s position in the points table. Hardik Pandya-led Mumbai was the first team to be eliminated from the race for the IPL 2024 playoffs. Hardik has also had to face criticism for his poor form. The star all-rounder has scored only 200 runs in 12 innings and has taken 11 wickets in the same innings at an economy rate of 10.58.
