IND vs NZ: Five reasons which became the reason for Team India’s defeat, one decision of Rohit Sharma ruined the game

New Zealand defeated India by 8 wickets in the first test match. IND vs NZ (Photo Source: Getty Images) Team India, captained by Rohit Sharma, had to face a shameful defeat by 8 wickets in the Test played against New Zealand in Bengaluru. With this victory, New Zealand took a 1-0 lead in the three-match Test series. In this match, India set a target of only 107 runs for the Kiwi team, which they easily achieved on the fifth day at the loss of 2 wickets. Now the question in everyone’s mind is that where did Team India go wrong in this match and why did it lose this match, let us tell you. IND vs NZ 5 Reasons Why India Lost First Test Match (Five reasons why Team India lost the first test against New Zealand) 1. Rohit Sharma’s wrong decision on the toss. When the toss of this match took place on the second day of the Test match, there were overcast conditions. Not a single ball was bowled on the first day due to rain. At the same time, when the game started on the second day, Rohit took a wrong decision after winning the toss. India chose to bat and the entire team was bundled out for only 46 runs. Five players including Virat Kohli could not even open their accounts. Rohit himself later admitted that there was a mistake in taking the decision after the toss. Rohit said after the first day’s play, “As a captain, I am sad to see the score of 46 runs because the decision to bat first was mine. But one or two bad decisions are made every year.” 2. Conway’s innings proved costly for India After India were bowled out cheaply in the first innings, New Zealand opener Devon Conway gave trouble to the Indian bowlers. Conway played an inning of 91 runs in 105 balls with the help of 11 fours and 3 sixes. He made a partnership of 67 runs for the first wicket with captain Tom Latham (15). Conway then took over the innings with Will Young (33). Both of them added 75 runs for the second wicket and put pressure on the host team. 3. Racine-Saudi partnership Apart from Conway, Rachin Ravindra (134 in 157 balls), who came to bat at number four, troubled the Indian bowlers. Rachin made a 39-run partnership with Daryl Mitchell (18) for the fourth wicket. However, when Tim Southee (65) came to support Rachin, both of them made a partnership of 137 runs for the eighth wicket. Thanks to the partnership of both, New Zealand scored 402 in the first innings. If India had managed to break this partnership early, then perhaps New Zealand’s innings could have been reduced to below 300 and perhaps the result of the match could have been different. 4. Rahul and Jadeja failed in the second innings also In the second innings of the test match, India scored 462 runs on the board due to the excellent batting of Sarfaraz Khan (150), Rishabh Pant…

According to media reports of the time, a reliable source in NZC had received information about the security threat before the match started. After this, after consulting the security officials deployed for the match and the New Zealand government, the board decided to cancel the entire series and asked the Pakistan Cricket Board to make arrangements to leave Pakistan as soon as possible. Regarding this matter, NZC Chief Executive Officer David White said at that time – The safety of the players is paramount, and after the increase in the threat level, we felt this was the only responsible step of action. Huge news this, about New Zealand pulling out of their tour of Pakistan and heading back home. Feel for cricket lovers in Pakistan but since this is because of a perceived security threat, it will impact other teams touring there too — Harsha Bhogle (@bhogleharsha) September 17, 2021 There was a big setback to the return of cricket in Pakistan So after this sudden decision taken by the New Zealand Cricket Board, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) had expressed its disappointment. However, despite the tight security arrangements they had made, the board was quite worried about such an incident. But they also later acknowledged the importance of the safety of the players. It was a result of PCB’s hard work to bring cricket back to Pakistan but this incident suddenly dealt a blow to all the efforts it had made in the past some time.

3 reasons why Sanju Samson should consistently find a place in Team India’s playing XI in T20 cricket

Let us know these reasons Sanju Samson (Image Credit- X) Indian cricket team’s experienced wicketkeeper batsman Sanju Samson has not got a chance to play consistently for Team India. Since his T20 debut in 2015, he has been able to play only 28 T20 and 16 ODI matches for Team India in 9 years. He was selected in the Indian team that won the recently concluded ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024, but he did not get a chance to play a single match. But now the time has come that he should get a chance to play T20 cricket consistently for Team India. It is worth noting that after the T20 World Cup, captain Rohit Sharma, former captain Virat Kohli and all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja have decided to say goodbye to the game. So after the departure of these 3 players, Sanju can play an important role in batting in the middle order. 1. Rishabh Pant has more chances than Sanju Sanju Samson. (Image Source: X) Let us tell you that at present Rishabh Pant is the first choice wicketkeeper of the Indian cricket team management in all three formats. So when he had a car accident, it was expected that Sanju Samson would be selected in the Indian team for the T20 World Cup 2024, but after a strong comeback in IPL 2024, he was once again successful in winning the trust of the selectors. However, when it comes to the Indian team, Pant has a lot of opportunities to prove himself in the shortest format of the game, but that is not the case with Sanju as compared to him. Pant has played a total of 74 T20 matches for Team India so far, in which he has scored just 1158 runs at an average of 22.70 and a strike rate of 126.55. Pant made his debut three years after Sanju’s debut, but then he got more opportunities. But at this time the Indian management may look towards Pant in Tests and ODIs and Sanju in T20 cricket.

Due to these 3 reasons, KKR registered the biggest win in IPL history

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) won their third Indian Premier League (IPL) trophy after defeating Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) by eight wickets in the final at Chepauk on Sunday, May 26. ipl 2024 award winners list Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) won their third Indian Premier League (IPL) trophy by defeating Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) by eight wickets in the final at Chepauk on Sunday, May 26. Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians have five trophies each. In such a situation, Kolkata holds the record for winning the second most trophies. Kolkata Knight Riders came into this edition of the tournament as the underdogs, as none of the experts had picked them in the list of favourites to win the tournament. However, the Purple Brigade proved everyone wrong by winning the title. After playing the league matches, KKR topped the group stage leaderboard. After that, they defeated SRH in their qualifier match at the Narendra Modi Stadium. Then Shreyas’ team faced SRH in the final who had reached the final after defeating Rajasthan Royals in the second qualifier match. Kolkata defeated them again and won the trophy. In such a situation, let us talk about those 3 reasons due to which KKR’s 2024 victory is the biggest victory in IPL history- 1. KKR dominated the entire tournament Kolkata played like true champions from the start and won three matches in a row at the start of the tournament. However, they lost one match but there was no looking back after that. They finished the league with 20 points and topped the playoff race. Out of the 14 matches they played, they won nine and lost three, while two matches were abandoned due to rain. During their title-winning campaigns in 2012 and 2014, Kolkata did not look as dominant as they did this year. Moreover, they finished in the top 2 of the points table in those two years more than this year. Shreyas Iyer’s side was equally dominant in the playoffs this year, winning both matches by a margin of eight wickets. 2. Contribution of all players Cricket is not a one-man game but a team game. It often happens that 2-3 players carry the burden of their team throughout the tournament. But this year it was different for KKR. Every cricketer, who may have played just one match, left their mark on the team’s performance, making this win all the more special. Four batsmen have scored more than 350+ runs this season, while five bowlers have taken 15+ wickets, which is a testament to the collective performance of Kolkata players this season. The support staff also played a vital role in keeping the players mentally and physically fit throughout the campaign. 3. Attacked the opposition team with both bat and ball KKR’s run rate with the bat and economy rate with the ball ratio of 1.17 is the best ever in the history of the league. They surpassed Mumbai Indians, who had a ratio of 1.14 in 2020. Not only this, Kolkata has finished its matches with the best net run rate…

IPL 2024: Former SRH coach gave these reasons behind Washington Sundar not getting a chance

This season, Washington Sundar has played just two matches in which he has taken just one wicket Washington Sundar In IPL 2024, the first qualifier match was played between Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) on Tuesday, May 21. In this match held at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, KKR registered a one-sided victory by 8 wickets and made their place in the final. Hyderabad’s team looked weak in all three departments and had to face defeat. SRH once again ignored all-rounder Washington Sundar and did not include him in the playing eleven. This season the off-spinner has played only two matches, in which he has been able to take only one wicket. On his not being included, former SRH coach Tom Moody now believes that Washington’s poor form is the reason for him not playing. Regarding the current season, Washington Sundar has played 16 matches in two seasons for Sunrisers Hyderabad, in which he has taken 9 wickets. Tom Moody believes that Sundar is not in his best form and if there was no impact sub rule, he would have made it to the playing eleven. He either did not bowl well or got injured – Tom Moody Speaking to ESPNcricinfo, Tom Moody said that he has not bowled well for Sunrisers for three reasons. In this three-year cycle, he has not bowled well. If you look at his statistics in the last three years, he has either not bowled well or got injured. He further said that, I think the Impact Sub (rule) has not helped him at all. You will go with him in almost every match because of his multi skills and he gives you balance. But when you’ve got the impact sub, it has made it difficult for him to regain form and confidence. 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?
