“We have to bring such batsmen in the team who….”- Big statement by head coach after Afghanistan’s exit

We need to bring in more batsmen who can score runs by being consistent like openers and also give opportunities in the game – Jonathan Trott Jonathan Trott (Photo Source: X/Twitter) T20 World Cup 2024: Afghanistan has been eliminated from the tournament after losing the semi-final against South Africa. After this defeat, Rashid Khan and company’s dream of playing their first World Cup final has been shattered. Afghanistan has impressed everyone with its performance in the ongoing tournament. The team defeated teams like New Zealand and Australia, which would be wrong to call an upset. Meanwhile, after Afghanistan’s exit, the team’s head coach has given a big statement. Jonathan Trott says that the team will learn a lot from this World Cup. He has also expressed his displeasure over the team’s batting. The middle order has disappointed – Jonathan Trott In the semi-final match against South Africa, the team’s batting disappointed a lot. The team was all out for just 56 runs in 11.5 overs. Talking to ICC about the team’s batting, head coach Jonathan Trott said, I’m sure people will learn from this experience, we’ve got a better tournament than the last 50-over World Cup in November and it’s just about going step by step and hopefully we’ll learn from today. South Africa bowled really well and when they saw how the pitch behaved they knew how to bowl in the conditions and I think that’s bad because we haven’t really fired, the middle order batsmen haven’t fired enough in this World Cup. We have become more dependent on Gurbaz and Zadran- Head Coach The team has won every match in which the team’s openers Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Ibrahim Zadran have given a good start. But this did not happen against South Africa, which led to the defeat. The head coach says that the team has become too dependent on Gurbaz and Zadran. There is a need to bring such batsmen in the team, who can score runs consistently like openers. We have perhaps become a little too dependent on Gurbaz and Ibrahim to score runs. Nobody else has scored runs. And we have to find the reason for this, we need to bring in more batsmen who can score runs by being consistent like openers and also give opportunities in the game. So this is our big project going forward.

‘Keep your mouth shut’, veteran lashes out at fans and franchise after RCB’s exit from IPL 2024

After losing in the eliminator, RCB’s dream of winning the IPL title has once again remained unfulfilled RCB (Image Credit- Twitter X) Rajasthan Royals defeated Royal Challengers Bangalore by 4 wickets in the Eliminator of IPL 2024. With this defeat, RCB’s dream of winning the IPL title has once again remained unfulfilled. RCB had a very bad start in the first half of the season and won only one out of its 8 matches, but in the second half, Bangalore made a brilliant comeback and won six consecutive matches to make it to the playoffs. After the defeat in the eliminator, Indian cricket team’s great batsman Chris Srikkanth has given a blunt advice to Royal Challengers Bangalore. Srikkanth said on his YouTube channel, when you are doing well in life, keep your mouth shut and keep moving forward. If you are doing something and make noise about it, then that work can get spoiled. If you played badly, accept criticism- Srikkanth The former cricketer further said that, there was more showing off without any need (after the win against CSK). Therefore everything was destroyed. In cricket you need to shut your mouth and play. Srikkanth said, if you play well, congratulations, if you play poorly, accept criticism, but you should never open your mouth and show aggression. They are congratulating themselves for qualifying for the playoffs and making a great comeback. CSK and MI have done this many times. Both CSK and Mumbai have won many titles. These guys won six matches and were eliminated as soon as they qualified. Let us tell you that RCB has not won the title even once till date. The team finished three runners-up in 17 seasons, but was not successful in lifting the trophy.

MS Dhoni: After CSK’s exit from IPL, Dhoni reached Ranchi the very next day, watch the video of the airport.

MS Dhoni: In the 17th season of IPL, all four teams have qualified for the playoffs, in which Kolkata Knight Riders, Sunrisers Hyderabad and Rajasthan Royals had already qualified for the playoffs. Now Royal Challengers Bangalore have confirmed their place in the playoffs by defeating Chennai Super Kings in the last league match. With this defeat, Chennai (CSK)’s IPL 2024 journey ended and perhaps Dhoni’s IPL journey too. It is believed that this season is Dhoni’s last IPL season and he will announce his retirement. It is noteworthy that Dhoni was seen suffering from knee injury and pain during the tournament, hence it seems impossible for him to play IPL next year. CSK’s legendary former captain MS Dhoni has reached his home Ranchi after the last match of Chennai. In the match played between RCB and CSK on Saturday, Chennai needed to reach the target of 201 runs to make it to the playoffs. However, Dhoni was unable to lead the team to victory. Dhoni was seen angry at himself after not helping the team win. But the very next day Dhoni returned home and was seen in a light mood. Dhoni was seen smiling at the fans and also said hello to them. While leaving the airport, Dhoni was seen in a light blue T-shirt. You can watch the full video below: Let us tell you that after the defeat, Dhoni was disappointed and was seen not shaking hands with the RCB players when the team’s opponents were celebrating their victory. Was this Dhoni’s last IPL? On this question, Robin Uthappa said, “I don’t think we have seen the last of MS. He is not a person who takes these things lightly. He will definitely come back roaring. Even with the storyline, I have only seen him bat in the last 4 or 5 overs, there is a reason for that. Regarding MS Dhoni’s retirement, Suresh Raina told Geo Cinema, “Rituraj Gaikwad needs more time to mature, so MS Dhoni should play one more season.”
