DTVHINDI‘If you have to bench Shadab then do it’ Former Pakistani legend made a big statement before the T20 World Cup
T20 World Cup is starting from 1 June Shadab Khan (Image Credit- Twitter X) Former Pakistan cricket team captain and well-known cricket commentator Rameez Raja has made a big statement about Pakistani all-rounder Shadab Khan. It is worth noting that before the T20 World Cup 2024, Shadab has failed to make an impact with his performance. Shadab’s performance in the recent four-match T20 series against England was disappointing. Rameez says that Shadab has wasted the opportunities he got at number 5 in the Pakistani team and if he has to be benched in the T20 World Cup, then so be it. In the two matches played against England, Shadab was able to score only 3 runs, while he was out on a duck once. Before T20 World Cup 2024, Rameez Raja made a big statement about Shadab Khan Let us tell you that before the T20 World Cup, Rameez Raja said about Shadab Khan through a video uploaded on his YouTube channel – The middle order batting flopped in the fourth T20 match against England, due to which there was a shortage of runs and we lost the match. Imad Wasim should be selected for all the matches. You can promote Sam Ayub in batting, because Shadab does not fit at number 5. He has missed the opportunities he got at this number. Rameez further said- If a proper batsman comes at number 5, then Pakistan cricket team will get more balance. I do not understand what is Shadab’s role in the team. He is not able to perform at number 5 and is out of form. If you have to bench Shadab then do it. Number 7 can be his best batting order, he tries to play like a slugger. Pakistan Cricket Team for T20 World Cup 2024: Babar Azam (captain), Abrar Ahmed, Azam Khan, Fakhar Zaman, Haris Rauf, Iftikhan Ahmed, Imad Wasim, Mohammad Abbas Afridi, Mohammad Amir, Mohammad Rizwan, Naseem Shah, Saim Ayub, Shadab Khan, Shaheen Afridi, Usman Khan.

Therefore, what the English players can do in the T20 World Cup, they have already done it in the IPL. Hussain further said- England will have to perform better this time than the last ODI World Cup. They went to the last World Cup with a lot of hope, but England’s strategy did not work there. Therefore, they need a plan B in the upcoming T20 World Cup. If we don’t start the tournament well, many things can go wrong. It remains to be seen how the England team performs on a slow pitch. But the balance that Jos Buttler’s team has is quite right.

Dinesh Karthik said, ‘Whenever I used to play against RCB and Virat Kohli used to catch my catch, the word ‘Ben Stokes’ would definitely come out of his mouth but it was a send off. Hardik Pandya used to tease me that the leg spinner has just come and that’s why I am thankful for that. After that, when I used to play some shots, he used to say, ‘Okay, it seems it has become a little better.’ Rohit Sharma was also troubling me this year: Dinesh Karthik Dinesh Karthik further said, ‘He is my good friend. He also said that he is doing some work as a commentator.

‘We should have 6 to 8 retentions’, Harsha Bhogle said a big thing on the matter of retention of players in IPL
Commentator Harsha Bhogle has given his opinion on IPL retention Harsha Bhogle. (Photo Source: Twitter) The 17th edition of the Indian Premier League recently ended, where Kolkata Knight Riders won the title for the third time. The Shreyas Iyer-led team won the trophy by defeating Sunrisers Hyderabad in the final. This season has just ended and the franchises have started preparing for the 18th edition of the tournament. Let us tell you that the first mega auction of IPL 2025 will be organized, in which each team will be allowed to retain limited players. The remaining players will have to come into the auction pool. Now famous commentator Harsha Bhogle has given his opinion on this issue. He believes that teams should be given the option to retain six to eight players instead of four. Apart from this, he asked the team to retain the stars they have discovered. Know what Harsha Bhogle said Harsha Bhogle said in a video on his YouTube channel, If we can maintain the sanctity of the purse then I think we should have six to eight retentions. KKR’s Venky Mysore has come up with a very practical suggestion, which is that you should be allowed to retain players if they have a fair market value, otherwise no retention but eight right-to-match cards. I know this will change the dynamics of the auction drastically, but it is something worth considering. At the same time, after the end of IPL 2024, Harsha Bhogle recently revealed his best playing XI. With four foreign players in the team, he picked Virat Kohli, Sunil Narayan, Sanju Samson and many other stars in his best XI. Bhogle’s Best XI Virat Kohli, Sunil Narine, Sanju Samson, Riyan Parag, Nicholas Pooran, Andre Russell, Dinesh Karthik, Jasprit Bumrah, Varun Chakravarthy, Trent Boult, T Natarajan.
Only Bumrah bowls accurate yorkers in death overs, former Australian fast bowler makes a big claim
Bumrah’s main weapon is the yorker, which he uses cleverly in the last overs Jasprit Bumrah. (Image Source: Getty Images) Former Australian fast bowler Brett Lee believes that apart from Jasprit Bumrah, most of the pacers are struggling to bowl effective yorkers in the death overs. Talking about the importance of the yorker, Brett Lee said that Bumrah is currently one of the most complete bowlers in world cricket. Bumrah (Jasprit Bumrah) can bowl a wicket-taking delivery without giving away any runs. But the yorker is his main weapon, which he uses cleverly in the last overs. “As a general rule, apart from Bumrah we haven’t seen enough fast bowlers bowl yorkers lately. I would like to see fast bowlers bowl more yorkers. I still don’t think they bowl enough yorkers in the death overs,” Brett Lee said at the launch of the Legends Intercontinental T20 League recently. I am all for batsmen, but… The former fast bowler further said that, if you look at the 17 seasons of IPL, on average a yorker has a strike rate of less than 100. Which indicates that there is one run or less per ball. Now, when you bowl a yorker, the batsman can hit a shot through the scoop. This puts pressure on the bowler. Then you have to set the right field. Have to keep two people at the back, third man and fine leg and then bowl. He concluded by saying, I am all for the batsmen, but there should be something for the bowlers as well. I am not asking for a green top where teams get bowled out for 110 runs because that is not good for cricket either. I think you want a good score. A score of around 185 to 230 is a good score. We have seen scores of 265, 270, 277 now. These are really difficult because most bowlers concede 45 to 50 runs in a four-over spell.
IPL 2024: We hoped that Mitchell Starc would prove to be the X-Factor for us: Gautam Gambhir made a big revelation after winning the final
According to Gautam Gambhir, he had absolutely no doubt about Starc and he knew very well that the excellent fast bowler would prove to be the X-factor for him.

Many people praised Mitchell Starc’s bowling. In the Indian Premier League 2024 auction, Mitchell Starc was included in the Kolkata Knight Riders team for Rs 24.75 crore. The performance of the brilliant fast bowler was quite disappointing in the initial matches of IPL 2024. In the first two matches, Mitchell Starc gave 100 runs in 8 overs and did not take a single wicket. However, by the end of the tournament, Mitchell Starc had 17 wickets at an average of 26.12. According to Gautam Gambhir, he had no doubts about Starc and he knew very well that the excellent fast bowler would prove to be the X-factor for him. Gautam Gambhir told Sportskeeda on the match, ‘We had no doubt about Starc and we all knew that he would prove to be the X factor for us in this tournament. We all knew that at the right time he would present his tremendous performance in front of the world and he did just that. Starc bowled very well in Qualifier 1 and the final and this is the mark of a big player. There was no talk of money at all and with Starc’s arrival our team became even stronger.’ Gautam Gambhir praised Mitchell Starc a lot Regarding Abhishek Sharma’s bowling in the final, Gautam Gambhir said, ‘You expect a bowler to bowl a ball like this. Kolkata Knight Riders expected a great performance from Mitchell Starc in Qualifier 1 and the final and he did just that. I cannot say whether this ball was playable or not because there is no ball that cannot be played but yes it was a very good ball. I don’t care what people are saying about Starc or what is being discussed about him on social media. According to me, there should be no discussion about performance because big players always leave their mark in important matches. 5 Australian players who scored half-century in their 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?

Just keep moving forward, he will find his form.’ Glenn Maxwell has not yet joined the Australian team for the T20 World Cup 2024.
