T20 World Cup 2024: Towhid Hridoy furious over poor umpiring during South Africa vs Bangladesh match
In another low scoring match in New York, South Africa defeated Bangladesh by 4 runs. South Africa vs Bangladesh (Image Credit- Twitter X) The 21st match of the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024 was played between South Africa and Bangladesh (SA vs BAN). In this low scoring match held at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York, South Africa won against Bangladesh by 4 runs. However, the on-field umpiring during this match was criticized a lot in the cricket world including former players. During the match, Bangladeshi batsman Towhid Hridoy, who scored 37 runs in 34 balls, has given a big statement regarding umpiring. Let us tell you that in the match, Bangladeshi batsman Mahmudullah was given out LBW in the 17th over, but after this he took DRS and in the review he was declared not out. But during this time the ball hit Mahmudullah’s pad and crossed the boundary line, but since the ball hit the pad and the player was not out, the ball was declared dead. But this ball could have been a four, if the field umpire had taken the right decision. On the other hand, these 4 runs later became the reason for Bangladesh’s defeat, and there were some field decisions during the match in which the wide ball was not declared wide. Now Tauhid Hridoy has given a big statement regarding the poor umpiring during the match. Tauheed Hridoy gave a big statement Let us tell you that after the match between South Africa and Bangladesh ended, Tauhid Hridoy said to Cricbuzz – Honestly, these decisions were not good for us in such a big match. From my point of view, the umpire gave him out, but it was very difficult for us. Those 4 runs could have changed the result of the match. Cricket rules are not in my hands, but those 4 runs were very important at that time. Umpires can make calls, can make mistakes. But they are also human beings. They did not give wides on some occasions, which should have been given wides. In such matches where the score is low, 1-2 runs play a big role. I was given out on an umpire’s call, in which there is scope for improvement.

“Rohit and Virat should open” – former veteran said after seeing the poor form of Yashasvi Jaiswal
Yashasvi Jaiswal’s performance in IPL 2024 was quite ordinary. Rohit Sharma and Yashasvi Jaiswal (Pic Source-Twitter) T20 World Cup 2024 will be organized right after IPL 2024. For this, BCCI has announced the squad, in which Rohit Sharma, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Virat Kohli have been given place as top order batsmen. After seeing this squad, there is a question in everyone’s mind that who will open for India in the World Cup? However, looking at the kind of squad the board has selected, fans and cricket experts believe that Rohit Sharma and Yashasvi Jaiswal will open for India, while Virat Kohli will bat at number three. But considering the poor form Yashasvi Jaiswal is going through, the former veteran all-rounder has suggested the name of a different opening pair for Team India. Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma should open in the World Cup – Irfan Pathan Irfan Pathan Speaking to Star Sports, he said, “It is a big matter of concern because I believe that Yashasvi Jaiswal should start in the World Cup because he is a left-handed batsman. Therefore the opposing team will not start with the left arm spinner. If Yashasvi is in form then he will be a little hesitant in doing so. However, in this form, the team will think twice. The team will wonder whether they should open with in-form Virat Kohli along with Rohit Sharma, or go with Yashasvi Jaiswal, who is young and inexperienced. In such a situation, it is very important for him to come in form.” Pathan further said, “The good thing for Yashasvi is that he will get opportunities because his team has qualified and if they finish in the top two then he will get more opportunities. With this in mind, there are some positives for Yashasvi, but this form will also trouble Rajasthan Royals a lot.” Jaiswal has scored 348 runs in the 13 matches played so far at an average of 29.00.

Australian legend Matthew is furious at Lucknow Australian legend Matthew Hayden has expressed extreme anger over Lucknow’s performance against Hyderabad. Matthew Hayden expressed his displeasure against Lucknow and said that- “When you know that the opposition team has batsmen like Head, Abhishek and Klaasen, then the team has to think about a run rate of more than 10 runs per over. You played slowly even in the powerplay, which took the score somewhere else. 160 or 170 runs are not enough here. I think it would be right to call Lucknow out of IPL.” SRH is currently ranked No. 3 on the points table with seven wins from 12 matches. Meanwhile, LSG are at sixth position in IPL 2024 having registered six wins and six losses so far.
“Batting, bowling, fielding… poor performance of the team…” KL Rahul lashed out at the players after losing against KKR.
KL Rahul (Image Credit- Twitter X) In the 54th match of IPL (Indian Premier League) 2024, Lucknow Super Giants had to face a crushing defeat against Kolkata Knight Riders. On Sunday, May 5, both the teams were face to face at Ekana Stadium in Lucknow. In this match, Lucknow won the toss and decided to bowl first. Coming to bat first, KKR performed brilliantly with the bat and scored a total of 235 runs in the first innings. In reply, LSG could score only 137 runs in the run chase and ultimately lost the match by 98 runs. Interestingly, this was the first time in IPL 2024 that a team had scored 200 or more while batting first in seven matches in Lucknow. After the end of the match, LSG captain talked about his team’s poor performance and told why his team lost the match. Captain KL Rahul talked big after LSG’s defeat At the post match presentation ceremony KL Rahul Said, “There were a lot of runs to be scored in the second innings. When you are chasing big targets, you end up putting in too much effort and end up losing wickets. Overall just a poor performance by the team. We did not bowl well and the overall performance with bat, ball and fielding was poor. Sunil Narine and Phil Salt batted well in the powerplay. They always put a lot of pressure on the opposition team. Our young bowlers could not handle that kind of pressure and hit some good shots.” The LSG captain further said, “IPL is like that, you play against really good players and that is when your character is tested. We could not reach the target. The wicket was really good, it felt like it was a good wicket, there was a bit of bounce if you bowled hard and back of the length, but nothing out of the ordinary and it didn’t feel like the pitch was bad. 235 was probably 20 or 30 runs above the par score and our batting performance was really bad. When you are chasing such a big score you are under pressure.” The captain admitted, “The bowlers tried their best, but it is really a young group. The sooner you learn, the better it is for the team. When we have come against batsmen like Sunil and any powerful batsman, we have made some mistakes. This kind of attack creates pressure on our bowlers. Once we come back to the dressing room, the conversation will be to move forward from this defeat and learn from the mistakes we made in this match. Try to improve them and become better. We are ready for the next three matches. It is very clear to us, if you want to reach the top four, you have to win all the games. “This will give us some freedom to go out there and go into the game a little more fearless, a little braver.”
