On the other hand, now 37-year-old Rohit has spoken openly about his T20 retirement and has also taken a dig at those cricketers who, after announcing their retirement, take back their retirement and come back to play cricket. Rohit has said that in today’s time retirement has become just a joke. Rohit Sharma gave a big statement Let us tell you that recently while talking to Jio Cinema, Rohit said- These days retirement has become just a joke in the world of cricket. Players announce retirement, but come back to play cricket. This hasn’t happened in India, and it’s rare to happen here. However, I see players from other countries, they announce retirement and then take a U-turn. So, you can’t really know if someone has retired or not? Rohit further said about his retirement- My decision is the final decision and I am very clear. It was the right time to say goodbye to the format I loved playing. I first played the 50 over format for India and then directly the T20 World Cup 2007. It was a good time to move on.

AFG vs NZ test match became a joke, Greater Noida stadium exposed the world’s richest cricket board
Play on the second day of the only Test is yet to begin due to wet outfield and poor facilities at the Greater Noida Sports Complex ground in Greater Noida. Greater Noida Stadium (Pic Source-X) The only Test between Afghanistan and New Zealand has started on 9 September. The first day of the Test match could not start due to rain. Not only this, the second day of the only Test match has also not started due to wet outfield and poor facilities at Greater Noida Sports Complex Ground in Greater Noida. The lack of modern facilities and inexperienced ground staff at the Greater Noida Sports Complex Ground has made it difficult to prepare the ground. The Board of Control for Cricket in India is being heavily criticized on social media for this. Let us tell you, it rained for a very short time on Monday i.e. 9 September and even after that the match has not started yet. There are also reports that it seems very difficult for the second day’s play to take place between these two teams. To start the match, the umpires inspected the ground and pitch 6 times throughout the day on 9 September. New Zealand captain Tim Southee, all-rounder Mitchell Santner and Rachin Ravindra along with other players also inspected the ground, but mid-on and mid-wicket did not look good for playing, while many patches were visible even inside the 30-yard circle of the field. However, after the sun came out, it seemed for a while that the match could start, but the umpires finally admitted that a match cannot be held on such a pitch and ground on 9 September. This is the reason why the game could not start on the first day. The weather is clear on the second day but despite this the players of both the teams are eagerly waiting for the match to start. BCCI got a lot of flak on social media The Board of Control for Cricket in India is one of the richest boards in the world. Many people on social media are saying that if this ground was not completely suitable for the match then why was it declared as a venue. Let us tell you, this is the first test match being played between the two teams. After the first day of the match was cancelled, an official of the Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB) had said that there is a lot of mess here, we will never come back here. The players are also unhappy with the facilities here. He said that we had already talked to the concerned people and the people of the stadium had assured us that everything would be fine regarding media facilities. However, we have only seen disappointment here. Extremely poor and unprofessional behavior @ACBofficials for choosing such a poor&low standard ground for the only test of the year against a quality side of NZ.It’s been 2nd day, since no rain and the groundsmen unable to dry out the ground.Such a terrible scene.#AFGvNZ — Zia Afghan (@ziasayzz)…
“Pakistan has become a joke of cricket”- Former cricketer scolded players after losing to Bangladesh
After Pakistan’s bad defeat, Kamran criticized the team on his YouTube channel. He said that no one has learned anything from what has happened in Pakistani cricket in the last five years. He said, “It was because Rizwan scored 50 and moved the scoreboard, otherwise we would have lost by an innings. This is such a bad defeat that it will not be forgotten. If you think bad about someone, bad things will happen to you too. You have not learned anything in the last 5 years. You lost to Zimbabwe. You were out of the Asia Cup last year. Now you have been humiliated so much in the World Cup. Pakistan cricket has become a joke in the world.” Kamran has praised the Bangladesh cricket team for their excellent performance. He said that Bangladesh had to save the match and they not only did it but also won the match. He said, “This is a difficult time for Bangladesh, but their batsmen scored runs. They had to save the Test match, they not only saved it but also won the match. They opened up the wrist of Pakistani cricket. Our batsmen were batting like club cricketers. The approach of the Pakistani players was also very bad. The players were laughing in the dressing room. There was no seriousness because they knew that no one would ask anything.
“It’s a joke…” Why was KL Rahul dropped from the team for the third ODI? Former cricketer demands an answer
Dodda Ganesh has criticised the Indian management for their decision to leave out an experienced player like KL Rahul for this do-or-die encounter. KL Rahul (Photo Source: X/Twitter) Former India fast bowler Dodda Ganesh has questioned the decision to drop KL Rahul and replace him with Shivam Dubey in the ODI match against Sri Lanka. Ganesh called the move ridiculous and said that KL Rahul had captained India in this format only a short time ago. Sri Lanka won the series 2-0 by defeating India by 110 runs in the third and final ODI played at R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Wednesday, 7 August. Batting first, the host team scored 248 runs. After this, Dunith Welalage took 5 wickets for 27 runs in 5.1 overs and the Indian team collapsed for 138 runs in 26.1 overs. The Men in Blue made two changes to their playing XI for this do-or-die encounter. Rishabh Pant replaced KL Rahul, while Riyan Parag replaced Arshdeep Singh. Ganesh on his X handle has criticised the Indian management for the decision to leave out an experienced player like KL Rahul for this do-or-die encounter. Ganesh wrote in his post “Only a crazy person would replace KL Rahul with Shivam Dube and Riyan Parag for such an important match. Can’t understand what is happening. He was leading India just 3 ODIs ago and suddenly, after a flop performance, he is out of the playing XI. What a joke. Only in a crazy universe will u have Dube and Riyan Parag playing ahead of KL Rahul, in a decider ODI. Don’t understand what’s happening. He was leading India just 3 ODIs ago and all of a sudden, one failure & he is out of the playing XI. Ridiculous is an understatement. #SLvIND — Dodda Ganesh दौद्ग गानेश (@doddaganesha) August 7, 2024 The 51-year-old former Karnataka fast bowler also warned that dropping players after one or two failures could create a sense of insecurity in them. He wrote in the next post- “If a player who had great success last year can be dropped on a technicality after one failure, it creates a sense of insecurity among the players. Well, you can’t build a cricket team like that. Who would have thought that India would lose so easily to Sri Lanka?” If a player who’s had great success in the last year can be dropped after technically one failure, it creates a sense of insecurity amongst players. Well, you can’t build cricket teams like this. Who would’ve thought that India would lose to SL so convincingly? #SLvIND — Dodda Ganesh दौद्ग गानेश (@doddaganesha) August 7, 2024 What is your opinion? Was it the right move to keep KL Rahul out of the team in the last decisive match?
“Where did you hide it…” Venkatesh Iyer made a joke about Mitchell Starc’s wife Alyssa Healy – got a strong reply
Starc’s wife and Australian female cricketer Alyssa Healy was present to watch this match between Mumbai and Kolkata. Mitchell Starc (Pic Source-X) The 51st match of IPL 2024 was played between Mumbai Indians and Kolkata Knight Riders on 3 May. In this match, Kolkata won by 24 runs and gained 2 more important points in the points table. The star of this match was IPL’s most expensive player Mitchell Starc. He bowled 3.5 overs and took 4 wickets for 33 runs. The most important thing was that Starc took 3 wickets in his last over. The thing is that Mitchell Starc’s half IPL season was very bad. He did not take many wickets and gave away a lot of runs to the batsmen. Then what happened that in the last over he took 3 wickets in just 5 balls and because of him Mumbai Indians got all out. The credit behind this brilliant performance is being given to his wife Alyssa Healy. Actually, Starc’s wife and Australian female cricketer Alyssa Healy was present to watch this match between Mumbai and Kolkata. Starc’s wife Alyssa Healy was sitting in the stadium wearing KKR jersey. Alyssa Healy kept cheering for Starc the whole time and the most important thing was that as soon as she arrived, Starc performed very well in the match. The news is spreading all over the social media that Starc was in form after seeing his wife. Venkatesh Iyer made fun of Starc Meanwhile, after the match, when Player of the Match Venkatesh Iyer was asked about Starc’s performance, he jokingly said – Mitchell has bowled very brilliantly and commendably. I would like to ask him where he had kept Alyssa Haley hidden till now. Starc replied, “She was at home because she was busy with international events for some time, however now that she is here, hopefully it is a good sign for us.”
IPL 2024: Dinesh Karthik responded to Rohit Sharma’s ‘World Cup is going on in his mind’ joke with a 108 meter six, watch video
Karthik was the player who scored the most runs for RCB against SRH. Dinesh Karthik (Image Credit- Twitter X) Performing brilliantly before ICC tournaments has now become a habit for experienced wicketkeeper batsman Dinesh Karthik. Before the 2019 World Cup, while playing for KKR, he had scored 498 runs in the 2018 IPL and made it to the World Cup 2019. So, by finishing amazing matches for RCB in the year 2022 IPL, he was successful in making a place in the Indian team for the T20 World Cup 2022. This season, he scored a total of 330 runs for RCB in the middle order at a stormy strike rate. Scoring runs before ICC tournaments has become a habit for Karthik. So in the ongoing season of IPL also, he is seen doing something similar. For RCB, he has scored a total of 226 runs in the ongoing season at a strike rate of more than 200 and is the third highest run scorer for the team. For RCB, he got the team out of trouble by batting brilliantly in some of the initial matches of IPL. Against CSK, he scored 38 runs in 26 balls, while against Punjab Kings he scored 28 runs in 10 balls in a explosive manner. So the first fifty of the season from Karthik’s bat came against Mumbai Indians. In this match, he played a brilliant inning of 53 runs in 23 balls. So when Karthik came to bat in this match against Mumbai, he was seen being provoked by Indian captain Rohit Sharma. When Karthik came to the crease in the match, Rohit was heard saying on the stump mic – Well done DK, he has to be pushed for selection in the T20 World Cup, the World Cup is running in his mind. So only a few days have passed since this conversation between Rohit and Karthik took place seriously and Karthik has given a strong reply to Rohit. Let us tell you that when there was a match between RCB and SRH yesterday, Karthik, while batting at number 5 in the match, hit a 109 meter long six off the ball of T Nazarjan. In this match, Karthik completed his half-century in 23 balls and played a stormy innings of 83 runs in 35 balls. Watch the video of this amazing shot of DK You can never rule Dinesh Karthik out of the game 🙌 What a knock, What a player 🔝#RCBvSRH #TATAIPL #IPLonJioCinema , @RCBTweets , @DineshKarthik pic.twitter.com/UHnsbtFheP — JioCinema (@JioCinema) April 15, 2024
International players have made test cricket a joke, Venkatesh Prasad gave everyone a class
According to Venkatesh Prasad, franchise cricket has overtaken Test cricket and he is feeling very bad seeing this. Venkatesh Prasad (Photo Source: Twitter) Franchise league cricket has grown rapidly in recent times. Many international players want to play in franchise league cricket and want to play an important role in the victory of their team by performing well. There are many players who have terminated their central contracts with the national team and now their focus remains only on franchise leagues tournaments. Many former players are not liking the fact that star players are focusing more on franchise leagues cricket instead of playing for the international team. Now former Indian fast bowler Venkatesh Prasad has presented his side regarding this matter. According to Venkatesh Prasad, franchise cricket has overtaken Test cricket and he is feeling very bad seeing this. Let us tell you, South Africa has recently announced its team for the Test series against New Zealand in which seven uncapped players have been included. This is because senior players will be seen playing in the SA20 league to be held in South Africa. A user on ‘X’ asked Venkatesh Prasad a question, ‘What would you like to say on the fact that South Africa has sent its third grade team in the Test series against New Zealand? Has taste become luxury?’ Venkatesh Prasad gave a brilliant answer On this Venkatesh Prasad said, ‘This is a very bad thing. Franchise cricket has overtaken Test cricket in importance. I hope this doesn’t happen again. Sets a very bad precedent. Sad that it has reached this state where Franchise cricket has overtaken Test cricket in priority. Hope this doesn’t become the way forward. — Venkatesh Prasad (@venkateshprasad) December 31, 2023 South Africa is currently playing a Test series against the Indian team and after this they have to tour New Zealand where two Test matches will be played. The first test match is starting from 4th February while the second will be played from 13th February. Here is the South Africa team for the New Zealand test: Neil Brand (captain), David Bedingham, Ruan de Sward, Clyde Fortuyn (wk), Zubair Hamza, Tshepo Moreki, Mihalali Mpongwana, Duane Ollivier, Dane Paterson, Keegan Pietersen, Dane Peet, Renard van Tonder, Shaun von Berg , Khaya Jondo. 5 bowlers who will take the most wickets in test cricket in the year 2023 5 big cricketers who will retire from international cricket in 2023 5 Indian bowlers who have taken 500 wickets in the fewest innings in international cricket 4 South African opening batsmen who have scored 50+ scores most times in Test cricket Best playing 11 of the year 2023 5 batsmen who have scored the most centuries in test cricket away from home (active players) 5 Indian players who have scored the most runs in Tests against South Africa (Active Players) 6 Indian batsmen who scored centuries in South Africa Top 5 players sold in IPL 2024 auction 5 most expensive players sold in IPL history
