“All bowlers will need to be hitters…”- R Ashwin on Impact Player rule
R Ashwin (Photo Source: BCCI/IPL) There have been a lot of changes in IPL with the advent of Impact Player rule. Teams have the opportunity to choose an additional bowler and batsman as per their requirement. But many big players have given their opinion regarding this rule. From Virat to Rohit Sharma, everyone has given their reaction. In this series, now Team India and Rajasthan Royals’ veteran off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has given his opinion on this rule. Ashwin is not happy with the impact player rule. He has said that in the coming times, bowlers will have to become hitters. Player of the match Ravichandran Ashwin spoke about the Impact Player rule on JioCinema’s Match Center Live show and said, “If there was no Impact Player rule, the scores would have been the same.” On the Impact Player rule, Ashwin further said, “In my opinion, the batsmen have more confidence and the pitches have been standardized everywhere. In the future, all bowlers will need to be hitters, because we know that no matter how well we bowl, we need to be able to bat as well. This game is moving in that direction.” R Ashwin gave a big statement regarding his bowling in IPL 2024 Regarding his bowling, Ashwin said that the first half was not good for him because he came to play IPL 2024 after playing a Test series. His body was not feeling fresh. Ashwin said on his bowling, “My tournament was divided into two parts. The first part was after the Test series, so my body was not feeling fresh. My arm speed was not good and I was also injured. I played despite the injury, but I didn’t get much or frequent bowling time. I am someone who depends on repetition of bowling. In the last 6-7 matches, I feel my rhythm has come back. I am capable of bowling off spin. I made a slight change in my action. My plan was simple. I came in focused on changing the line and length of my balls and executed it well.”
AB de Villiers gave advice to CSK, said- As long as MS Dhoni is in the team, he should be the captain.
Former Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) batsman AB de Villiers believes that, if MS Dhoni is still a part of the playing eleven then he should lead Chennai Super Kings (CSK). Now AB de Villiers has made this comment after Chennai was eliminated from the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 after losing to RCB at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium. With Dhoni at the tail end of his career, the wicketkeeper-batsman decided to hand over the reins to young opener Ruturaj Gaikwad. Although Gaikwad captained well, he could not take his team to the playoffs. CSK’s points remained equal to those of Royal Challengers, but on the basis of net run rate, Royal Challengers left behind the defending champions and secured a place in the playoffs. As long as MS Dhoni is in CSK, he should be the captain of the team- AB de Villiers During a discussion on Jio Cinema AB de Villiers Said, “But being around MS, I always felt that it would be a waste not to have him as captain. He had tried this before also. It didn’t work (when Jadeja was replaced in the middle of the season). And unfortunately, this year, yes, you have to look at the results.” He further added, “They played well in most of the matches, but at the end of the day they could not qualify for the knockouts. It is definitely not because of Gaikwad’s captaincy. Although I always feel that when MS is around, he should be the captain.” Dhoni is arguably the most successful captain in the history of IPL. He has led in 226 matches, won 133 times and has a winning percentage of around 60. CSK has won five IPL trophies under the captaincy of MS Dhoni.
“If Virat wants to win the trophy, he will have to leave RCB”- Kevin Pietersen gave a strange advice to VK
The former English captain further said, “I really think it should be Delhi (Delhi Capitals). Delhi is where Virat needs to go. Virat can go away, and stay at home most of the time, I know he has a house in Delhi. He has a young family. He can spend more time there. He is a Delhi boy, why can’t he go back? Delhi is also desperate like Bengaluru. I think it is time for Virat to think long term. Beckham is gone, Ronaldo is gone, Messi is gone, Harry Kane left Spurs and went to Bayern Munich.
