KL Rahul (Photo Source: Getty Images) From youth to senior players, everyone is trying their best in the ongoing IPL for the T20 World Cup 2024. Be that as it may, the World Cup is a tournament that every player wants to play. Team India has not yet announced the squad for the T20 World Cup. In such a situation, all eyes are on the performance of the players to see who will get a chance in the team. Most of all there is a stampede in the team regarding the wicketkeeper. Sanju Samson, KL Rahul, Dinesh Karthik, Rishabh Pant are contenders for this place for Team India. Rishabh Pant has made a comeback to cricket during IPL 2024 after a long gap, and Sanju Samson has emerged as a top contender, raising doubts over KL Rahul’s selection chances. Meanwhile, Adam Gilchrist has recently dismissed speculations about Rahul’s inclusion in the World Cup squad. The former Australian cricketer advised KL Rahul to divert his attention from the current debates and focus on helping Lucknow Supergiants win the trophy in the IPL. He further emphasized that Rahul is a brilliant cricketer and hence there is no need to think, he will get a place in this marquee ICC event. Adam Gilchrist gave statement regarding the selection of KL Rahul “Talk about World Cup selection cannot stop during the tournament. But there is no need to think about who is going to the World Cup and who is not, what else has to be done to make a place in the team. Rahul will have to work out like every other player in this tournament. If you are in the eyes of the selection committee, you will be sitting on the plane for the World Cup.” Before the start of IPL 2024, there was speculation that Rahul could be seen playing in the middle order to further cement his place in the World Cup squad. However, he continued to open for Lucknow this season. Similarly, Samson is also batting in the top order for Rajasthan Royals, further reducing Rahul’s chances. Now it remains to be seen with which player Team India will move ahead.

Virat Kohli has been one of the great players for a long time: Henry Nicholls In the year 2021, the New Zealand cricket team suddenly canceled the Pakistan tour due to security concerns. However, he has visited the country twice in 2023.There are less than two months left for the ICC T20 World Cup to begin in the West Indies and USA from June 1-29.

Meanwhile, a big statement has come from New Zealand regarding the tour of Pakistan. New Zealand batsman Henry Nicholls has expressed his confidence regarding security in Pakistan. Let us tell you that the New Zealand team has already reached Pakistan and is preparing in full swing for the five-match series at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium from Thursday, April 18. Nicholas was asked a lot of questions in a special interview, let’s see what he answered – This will be New Zealand’s third tour in the last 17 months. How safe is Pakistan for cricketers in terms of security? We have spent a lot of time in Pakistan since last year. From the players’ perspective, we feel incredibly safe. When we came here, the board and others took very good care of us. Whenever I have been there I feel safe and the security there has been of the highest level. How do you see New Zealand’s chances of winning the T20 World Cup this time? We have a really strong T. We know from the number of players we have currently playing in the IPL and other competitions around the world that we have a strong squad and hopefully this will work out for the team. We will definitely do wonders in this tournament. 2 New Zealand players who can change the fortunes of the team in the upcoming World Cup? Glenn Phillips and Rachin Ravindra Who are Henry Nicholls’s four semi-finalists in the T20 World Cup and why? New Zealand, West Indies, India, England. I think we can see the final match between New Zealand and India. How much will Team India need Virat Kohli in the T20 World Cup? Virat Kohli has been one of the great players for a long time. I feel fortunate to have played against him and know how competitive he is. Having Virat Kohli in the team makes India a more dangerous team than ever. Which two players of India can play an important role in the T20 World Cup campaign? I think Rishabh Pant and Shubman Gill.

‘A dwarf is still a dwarf even if…’ – Former veteran cricketer created a sensation with his controversial statement regarding Rohit and Hardik.
Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 has started, Hardik Pandya has also captained Mumbai Indians in a match, but still the fans are not ready to accept that he is the captain of MI this season. In fact, ever since Hardik Pandya took over the captaincy of Mumbai Indians, there has been an earthquake among the fans. He is unhappy with the fact that Hardik is captaining Mumbai. Pandya, who played for MI from 2015 to 2021, was transferred to GT in an all-cash deal and was given the captaincy role. Under his captaincy, Gujarat became IPL champions in 2022. Ahead of IPL 2024, Hardik was traded back to MI via all-cash and was appointed captain, replacing Rohit Sharma. Let us tell you that Rohit had given five IPL titles to MI. Navjot Singh Sidhu gave a big statement regarding Rohit Sharma Former cricketer Navjot Singh Sidhu has given his opinion regarding Hardik and Rohit. Sidhu expressed his opinion while speaking on Star Sports and said, “I have played in an Indian team where five captains played together, Kapil Dev, Dilip Vengsarkar, Sunil Gavaskar, Krishnamachari Srikkanth and Ravi Shastri… pick up a brick. And you’ll find a captain both above and below that. There was no problem because he was playing for his country… the motivation was to play for his country. Therefore, playing under Hardik’s captaincy does not make Rohit any younger.” The former Indian opener further said, “I guarantee that this does not make Rohit Sharma small, he is a big player. This is a franchise that has brought in a new guy who is better and everyone has accepted him, but Rohit is a great player.” Sidhu said in his poetic style that ‘A dwarf is still a dwarf even if he stands on the top of a mountain, a god is still a god even if he stands in the depth of a well.’ Meanwhile, Mumbai Indians’ new batting coach Kieron Pollard defended Pandya’s decision to open the bowling and bat at number seven in his opening match. “You have to plan and decide what you want to do as a team,” he said. Hardik has also bowled with the new ball for Gujarat in the last few years.
“MS Dhoni will not play all the matches of IPL 2024” – Big prediction of former veteran cricketer
MS Dhoni (Photo Source: IPL/BCCI) West Indies great batsman Chris Gayle has predicted that MS Dhoni will not play all the matches in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) after Ruturaj takes over the captaincy of Chennai Super Kings (CSK). MS Dhoni stepped down from the captaincy of Chennai ahead of the match between CSK and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on March 22. Let us tell you that, under the captaincy of Hardik Pandya, Dhoni gave CSK its record fifth title by winning the final of IPL 2023 against Gujarat Titans. It was thought that the 2023 edition would be his last season but he expressed his desire to play one more season. He is again playing in IPL 2024 but this time he has entered the field only as a player. MS Dhoni will not play all the matches- Chris Gayle Chris Gayle said before the CSK vs RCB match on Jio Cinema, “Maybe he (MS Dhoni) may not play all the matches. There may be a little break for them in between. So this is the decision. But MSD will do well, don’t worry about it.” Let us tell you that Dhoni retired from international cricket on 15 August 2020, after this he has been playing IPL continuously. However, every year he is asked the same question in IPL, will this be his last IPL season? And every time Dhoni denies this. However, there are high chances that this could be Dhoni’s last IPL season. MS Dhoni looked quite fit in the match played against RCB. In this match, along with taking two catches, he also made one run out. He looked as ready as ever behind the wicket. However, he did not get a chance to bat in this match. It is expected that in the upcoming matches, he will be seen entertaining the fans with the bat also.

IND vs ENG: “Rajat Patidar should get another chance” – statement of former veteran cricketer
Chopra believes that it would not be right to select Padikkal as it would be challenging for the team management to select him in the future matches on the basis of one match. He suggested giving Patidar another chance in the team to assess his potential. However, many people believe that Padikkal may get a chance in the last match. Aakash Chopra said in a video released on his YouTube channel, “Reports suggest that Rajat Patidar will play and I can probably understand. The team is saying that they have played him three matches, so he can play one more match and this could be his last chance.” The former opener further added, “If they don’t play him and play Devdutt, and if he has a bad match, they won’t even be able to judge him, and they may also feel that they have given Rajat the silver.” Not given full chance. I wouldn’t be surprised if Rajat Patidar plays. “However, I still wouldn’t be surprised if he is removed.” Emphasizing the importance of each match, Chopra has said that due to the World Test Championship (WTC) now no match is unimportant in Test cricket. He expressed his view that both the teams will be motivated to increase their points in the WTC points table.
