A Pakistani journalist shared this news on Twitter and tried to humiliate Suresh Raina. The former Indian cricketer has given a befitting reply to this. Actually, during a recent IPL match, when Aakash Chopra asked Suresh Raina about his return from retirement, Raina jokingly said- I am Suresh Raina, not Shahid Afridi. Now for this reason, the Pakistani journalist tried to belittle Suresh Raina. However, Suresh Raina is known for his wit and immediately responded to the tweet, writing, I am not an ICC ambassador but the 2011 World Cup is at my home. Remember the Mohali match. Hope it brings back some unforgettable memories for you. I’m not an ICC ambassador, but I have the 2011 World Cup at my house. Remember the game at Mohali? Hope it brings back some unforgettable memories for you. — Suresh Raina🇮🇳 (@ImRaina) May 24, 2024 However, Shahid Afridi has expressed happiness on being made the ambassador of T20 World Cup 2024. He said- ICC Men’s T20 World Cup is an event that is very close to my heart. From becoming the Player of the Tournament in the first edition to winning the trophy in 2009, some of the favorite moments of my career have come from this tournament. Everyone is eagerly waiting for the India-Pakistan match in the T20 World Cup. Both teams have not been playing bilateral series against each other for the last decade. Both teams are seen playing only in ICC events. And for this reason fans are very excited about the India-Pakistan match. Now it remains to be seen who wins the match to be held on June 9, India or Pakistan.

‘Hyderabad cannot move forward without Travis Head’ Former Indian cricketer gave a shocking statement before the second qualifier between SRH vs RR
This match between the two teams will be played in Chepauk Travis Head (Pic Source-X) The second qualifier of the ongoing season of IPL is going to be held today on 24 May, Friday between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Rajasthan Royals (SRH vs RR). Let us tell you that this match will be played between the two teams at MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai. However, before the start of this match, former Indian cricket team opener and well-known cricket commentator Aakash Chopra has made a big statement. Chopra says that the Hyderabad team cannot move forward without Travis Head. Aakash Chopra made a big statement before the qualifiers Let us tell you that before the eliminator match, Aakash Chopra said through his YouTube channel – Their (SRH) strength is two openers, and if these two start firing from the beginning, then no one can stop them. If this happens, they will turn the match in their favor in the first 8 or 10 overs. Travis Head’s performance has gone down, but you expect him to play well. Travis Head is the first player I will keep an eye on in the match. Chopra further said- Travis Head has very good statistics in IPL, he has not been troubled much by Trent Bolt. But the last time the two teams clashed, he could have been out, but Riyan Parag dropped the catch. Bolt can try to trap him once again. But this team cannot move forward without Travis Head. However, it will be interesting to see which team wins the second qualifier match. Also, if we give you information about Head’s performance in the ongoing IPL, he has scored a total of 533 runs in 13 matches at a strike rate of 199.62. So, if Hyderabad has to make it to the IPL final, then it is very important for Travis Head to perform in the top order.

BCCI is searching for a new head coach for Team India. Harbhajan Singh. (Image Source: Twitter) Ever since the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has advertised for the post of new head coach of Team India, there has been a lot of discussion about it in the cricket world. It is worth noting that the tenure of the current head coach of the Indian cricket team, Rahul Dravid, is ending after the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024. So many coaches including former cricketers have shown interest in this high profile job of the Indian cricket team. Former Indian opener Gautam Gambhir’s name seems to be at the top in the list of cricketers who will become the new head of Team India. However, now a new name has been added to this list, that of former veteran spinner and famous as Turbanator Harbhajan Singh. Harbhajan Singh joins the race to become the head coach of the Indian cricket team Let us tell you that recently in an interview given to Times of India, Harbhajan Singh said – I do not know whether I will apply for this post or not. Coaching in India is about management, not about who should pull the players’ cart and who should drive it. They (BCCI) know this very well, you can guide the players. Cricket has given a lot, and I would be very happy if I get a chance to give it back. From this statement given by Harbhajan Singh, you can guess that he has not directly said whether he will apply for the post of head coach of Team India or not. However, it can be inferred from this statement that now Harbhajan has also joined the race to become the head coach of Team India. Also, let us tell you that in the race to become the new head coach of the Indian cricket team, the names of Chennai Super Kings head coach Stephen Fleming and Lucknow Super Giants head coach Justin Langer are also being discussed.

Abhishek Sharma (Photo Source: BCCI/IPL) Young player Abhishek Sharma has performed very well in the Indian Premier League 2024 and has won the hearts of many people. Let us tell you, due to the excellent performance of Abhishek Sharma, Sunrisers Hyderabad has made its place in the playoffs of the Indian Premier League 2024. Today i.e. on 19th May, in the match played at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad, Abhishek Sharma batted brilliantly and played a stormy innings of 66 runs with the help of five fours and six sixes in 28 balls against Punjab Kings. Abhishek Sharma has so far scored 467 runs in 13 matches in the Indian Premier League 2024 at an average of 38.92. He is at 9th position in the list of players who have scored the most runs in IPL 2024. Abhishek Sharma has batted tremendously this season but despite this he has not been included in the Indian team for the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024. Many people are surprised to see why Abhishek has not got a place in the Indian team for the upcoming tournament. Abhishek Sharma can be seen playing an important role with batting as well as bowling. He has the ability to play aggressive cricket consistently in the top order. He has performed similarly for Sunrisers Hyderabad in IPL 2024. Let us tell you, Yashasvi Jaiswal will be seen opening with Rohit Sharma as the top order in the Indian team of ICC T20 World Cup 2024. Sunrisers Hyderabad has qualified for the playoffs Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head have batted very well so far in the Indian Premier League 2024. Both these players would definitely like to leave their mark in the qualifier match also. Apart from Sunrisers Hyderabad, Kolkata Knight Riders, Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers Bangalore have qualified for the IPL 2024 playoffs. Under the captaincy of Pat Cummins, Sunrisers Hyderabad would definitely like to win the trophy for the 2024 season. At the same time, many people also believed that Abhishek Sharma could also be included among the reserve players of the Indian team in the upcoming tournament. 5 Australian players who scored half century in 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?

IPL 2024: RCB has won all the matches of May 18, will the team be able to beat CSK at home? Know what the former Indian player said
Today i.e. on 18th May, an important match is to be played between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Chennai Super Kings at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. RCB vs CSK (Photo Source: BCCI/IPL) Former player Aakash Chopra has given a big statement about Royal Challengers Bangalore before the match against Chennai Super Kings. Let us tell you, today i.e. on 18th May, an important match is to be played between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Chennai Super Kings at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. It is very important for both the teams to win this match. Let us tell you, whichever team wins this match will secure its place in the playoffs of this season. According to Aakash Chopra, Royal Challengers Bangalore have won all the matches they have played on May 18. However, he also believes that this match may be canceled due to rain. Royal Challengers Bangalore have so far won 6 out of 13 matches in the Indian Premier League 2024 while they have lost 7. The team has 12 points and is ranked seventh in the points table of the Indian Premier League 2024. But if RCB wins the match against Chennai Super Kings by a long margin then they will qualify for the playoffs this season. Aakash Chopra shared a video on his official YouTube channel in which he said, ‘It all started from here and it has ended again there. On one side is Chennai and in front of them is RCB. The last match was played on 23 March in which Chennai won and now the match between the two teams will be played on 18 May. RCB has won all its matches on May 18. Virat Kohli has scored runs in all the matches played on May 18 and this includes two centuries and one half-century. His jersey number is also 18. This will be a very fun match. However, there is also a possibility of rain. The longer the match, the higher will be RCB’s chances of qualifying. The shorter the match, the more difficult it will be for them to qualify. Here’s the video: Aakash Chopra further said, ‘Today is 18th May and Virat Kohli has a special relationship with this date. He has scored runs in all the matches he has played on May 18. All eyes will be on Virat Kohli in this match. Will Jacques is not there and Glenn Maxwell will have to perform well in his place. His role will be very big in this match. He is such a player who can hit sixes continuously and change the course of the match. He won the match for Australia in one leg. His performance so far in IPL 2024 has been very poor but he would definitely like to leave his mark in the upcoming match. The third player I will focus on is Cameron Green. If the match is of 10 overs then he will be required to bowl one or two overs. Green can also hit sixes continuously. Let Faf do his job in…
So together, the Indian team won the T20 World Cup 2007, Harbhajan Singh revealed many big secrets.

(Photo Source: Getty Images) The ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 is starting from June 2. This important tournament will be played in West Indies and USA. In this fantastic tournament, the match between India and Pakistan will be played in New York on June 9. Former Indian spinner Harbhajan Singh has given his stand regarding this match. Harbhajan Singh has previewed the upcoming match. Let us tell you, the performance of the Indian team in the last few ICC events has been quite ordinary and that is why they have not been able to win the trophy of these important tournaments. Under the captaincy of Mahendra Singh Dhoni, the Indian team won three ICC events. Under the captaincy of Mahendra Singh Dhoni, the Indian team won the ICC T20 World Cup 2007, ODI World Cup 2011 and Champions Trophy. Speaking in the Star Sports press room, Harbhajan Singh previewed the India vs Pakistan match which will be played in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. Harbhajan Singh said, ‘Many people do not know but Dhoni was also the new captain in the 2007 T20 World Cup and he needed support from all of us. In big teams like during matches against Australia, England and New Zealand, we all used to talk together and plan for the next few overs. For example, in the match against Australia, I bowled the 17th or 18th over and we gave only four runs. Later the batsmen were not able to score 25 runs in an over as is the case today. Whatever decision was taken, it was taken together with all the team players. When you play as a team you win most of the matches. Dhoni was a very good listener and he used to give decisions in favor of the team only after everyone’s consent. It was never the case that one player performed well because all of us were playing the match as a team. It is like this this time. Questions should not be raised on Rohit Sharma because he is not alone and it is about playing together. Harbhajan Singh made a big revelation regarding the final over of T20 World Cup 2007. Harbhajan Singh said about the final of ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2007, ‘When I finished my over, only one thing was going on in my mind. I was praying that we win this match from here. There was also a discussion going on as to who should be given the last over between me and Joginder Sharma. If Misbah-ul-Haq had not hit a six in my last over, I would have bowled the last over. But a lot of runs were lost in my last over and Misbah was also playing spin very well and that is why we went with Joginder Sharma. He had also said that I would bowl the last over,…
