Rohit Sharma-Virat Kohli (Photo Source: Getty Images) Veteran spinner Piyush Chawla believes that even though the opening combination of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma did not prove to be successful in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 match against Ireland, both of them should open for the Indian team in the upcoming matches. Let us tell you, in the match played against Ireland, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma had a partnership of 22 runs in 16 balls for the first wicket. Virat Kohli failed to bat well against Ireland and returned to the pavilion after scoring one run. The New York pitch helped the bowlers a lot and the batsmen were seen struggling. After this match, many people believe that Virat Kohli should bat at number three. However, Piyush Chawla does not think this is right at all. After the match, Piyush Chawla said on Star Sports, ‘Both these players are very experienced and have performed very well when they have opened in the past. You cannot say after looking at one match that it is not working. I wanted this combination since the team was selected and this is what happened.’ Rohit Sharma and Rishabh Pant batted really well: Piyush Chawla Piyush Chawla further said, ‘It was not easy to bat on this pitch but Rohit and Rishabh Pant performed very well. Even on such a difficult pitch, Rohit and Rishabh scored runs very easily. I really felt good to see this.’ India defeated Ireland by 8 wickets.

IPL 2024 Playoffs Qualification Scenario: Even after the defeat, RR in top 2, now there is a fight between the teams for the remaining two places.
IPL 2024, know the qualification scenario of all the teams after Match-65 here. RR vs PBKS (Photo Source: BCCI/IPL) IPL 2024 Playoffs Qualification Scenario: The 65th match of IPL 2024 was played today between Rajasthan Royals and Punjab Kings at Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati. In this match, Punjab team defeated Rajasthan by five wickets. However, there is not much change in the points table and qualification scenario due to the result of this match. RR team had already qualified for the playoffs while Punjab Kings were already out of the tournament. The mathematics of the playoffs is such that, KKR and Rajasthan, currently a total of 2 teams can qualify for the playoffs. A total of 5 teams are in line for these two spots. Those five teams are Chennai Super Kings, Sunrisers Hyderabad, Delhi Capitals, Royal Challengers Bangalore and Lucknow Super Giants. IPL 2024 playoff is something like this Qualification Scenario However, now the chances of Delhi and Lucknow reaching the playoffs are very slim, because Delhi has played all its league matches, while Lucknow has only 1 match left against Mumbai Indians, if it does not win this match by a big margin. If it wins the match, it will be able to reach only 14 points. The bad thing for Delhi and Lucknow is that the net run rate is currently in negative. So Chennai and Hyderabad have the highest chances of reaching the playoffs of the ongoing season. Hyderabad is currently at fourth position in the points table with 14 points, and they have two matches left. If it wins either of the two, it will easily qualify for the playoffs with 16 points. The situation in Chennai is also similar. With 14 points in 13 matches, CSK is currently at third place in the points table. If they win the match against RCB on May 18, they will qualify for the playoffs with 16 points. So, RCB’s hopes of reaching the playoffs rest on the fact that Hyderabad not only loses its next two matches, but also wins its last league match against CSK. Apart from this, he will have to pray that Hyderabad loses one of its remaining two matches by a big margin, only then his net run rate will be better than Hyderabad. Only after this can she qualify for the playoffs with 14 points.
