Now Aaron Finch gave a big statement regarding Hardik Pandya All-rounder Hardik again had to face ‘hooting’ at Wankhede. Let us tell you that Rohit Sharma Hardik is being trolled a lot after taking charge of MI in place of MI. Former captain Finch said during a show on ‘Star Sports’ that, “He is looking very disappointed and tired at the moment. It looks like he is feeling a lot of pressure. I think so. I myself have been in a situation where you try something personally but it just doesn’t seem to work.” He said, “It is very difficult to be in such a situation when the team is not doing well. As a captain, you take full responsibility for the team’s performance and it is very difficult to be in such a position. “Especially in this tournament where it is so brutal.” Former South African captain Graeme Smith said that Mumbai Indians look lost under Pandya’s leadership with a lot of changes being made. He said, “Hardik is really struggling, he looks under pressure. He also looks confused in the batting lineup. Tilak Verma and Naman Dheer are struggling in the middle order. Dheer was batting at number three and Hardik was fielding himself at any position. He should have made Tilak bat at number three, Suryakumar Yadav at number four and himself at number five throughout the season. “After this, David at number six, followed by your bowling unit.”

“Hardik is struggling… he seems to be under a lot of pressure”- Graeme Smith
Graeme Smith and Hardik Pandya. (Photo Source: Twitter) Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) registered their seventh win in IPL 2024 by defeating Mumbai Indians (MI) by 24 runs at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Friday. Batting first, Kolkata was all out for 169 runs. Later, their bowlers bowled brilliantly and restricted Mumbai to 145 runs and with this win they retained the second position in the points table. Graeme Smith and Shane Watson expressed their opinion about Hardik Pandya and Mumbai Indians. Speaking on GeoCinema’s IPL show Match Center Live, Graeme Smith and Shane Watson praised Suryakumar Yadav (56 runs) but also criticized the difficulties Mumbai Indians have faced this season. Shane Watson spoke on the captaincy issues of Mumbai Indians. He said, “It was a big mistake for the Mumbai Indians captain, even if it was Hardik Pandya, to keep bowling Naman Dheer when the situation was so serious (KKR was at 57-5). Bumrah had bowled only one over at that stage, so he needed to be brought back into the game to try to break the partnership of Venkatesh Iyer and Manish Pandey. But he didn’t just let them carry on and help build the partnership, before you know it, he didn’t play any shots in anger, and it took the partnership to where it was too late when it came. Was. The Mumbai Indians captain took some decisions which are difficult to understand.” Graeme Smith said about this match of Mumbai Indians that- “Hardik has really struggled, he seems to be under a lot of pressure. This created a bit of a stir in the air, who knows what effect it had on people. But even their batting lineup looks confused. Tilak Verma and Naman Dheer were battling in the middle order, with Dheer batting at number three and Hardik roaming all over the place. They should have made Tilak bat at 3, Sky at 4, Hardik at 5 and David at 6 throughout the season. Then, find your bowling units. All around, they have been a very confused team this season and it has been extremely disappointing from one of the mega franchises of the IPL. “Many people in the MI fanbase and camp will be very sad tonight.”
Good news for Mumbai Indians fans, MI can still reach the playoffs, understand the complete mathematics
Mumbai Indians have lost 8 out of 11 matches in IPL 2024. Jasprit Bumrah (Photo Source: BCCI/IPL) The IPL 2024 season has been no less than a nightmare for Mumbai Indians. This season is getting longer for them with each passing match. The team has played 11 matches so far this season, out of which they have won only three. Although everyone believes that the paths to the playoffs are closed for Mumbai, but if we look at the mathematical equations, Mumbai can still reach the playoffs with 12 points. But yes, one thing is that for this they will have to depend a lot on other teams. You will also think how this can happen, so let us tell you how this is possible. MI Qualification Scenario: How can Mumbai reach the playoffs? IPL It has been seen in the history of a season that teams are not able to qualify for the playoffs even with 14 points and this season now Mumbai Indians will not be able to reach even this many points. MI has three matches left in the tournament, even if it wins these three matches, it will still be able to reach only 12 points. Although officially she is still not out of the tournament. This means that somewhere mathematically they have a chance of reaching the top four for the playoffs. Rajasthan Royals and Kolkata Knight Riders, who are currently in the top-2, remain in the top-2 by winning two out of their remaining four matches and Lucknow Super Giants and Sunrisers Hyderabad will play against each other on May 8. If the team loses all the matches except 1, then the winning team will have 14 points and will end the league stage at the third position. In such a situation, other 7 teams will have a chance to qualify for the playoffs with 12 points, which will also include Royal Challengers Bangalore along with Mumbai Indians. Chennai Super Kings and Delhi Capitals have 10-10 points, if both the teams win only 1-1 match from here then they will also be able to reach 12 points only. Whereas Punjab Kings and Gujarat Titans will have to win at least two out of the remaining four matches to reach this number of points. IPL 2024: Points table after MI vs KKR match

Rohit’s master plan is ready for T-20 World Cup, said- nothing yet…. Everything when the time comes…
BCCI recently announced Team India for the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024. Since this T20 World Cup will be played in West Indies and USA and keeping in mind the pitches there, the team management has given more importance to spinners than pacers. The Indian teams announced for the T20 World Cup 2024 include four spinners and four pacers. Yuzvendra Chahal, Kuldeep Yadav, Axar Patel and Ravindra Jadeja have been included in the spinners. At the same time, confidence has been expressed in Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammad Siraj, Arshdeep Singh and Hardik Pandya as pacers. Rohit Sharma was asked a question regarding this in the press conference. Rohit Sharma has also answered this in his own style. Rohit Sharma Said in the press conference, “I definitely wanted four spinners. We have played a lot of cricket in West Indies. We know the conditions and the match will start at 10-10.30 am. There is quite a bit of technical aspect involved. I am not going to tell the reason publicly right now. Want to field Hardik as a fast bowling all-rounder. Axar and Jadeja also bat well and Kuldeep and Chahal are aggressive spinners who give us good balance.” With the tournament starting amid uncertain pitch conditions, Sharma stressed the need for adaptability and flexibility in match strategy. They said that, “Don’t know how the pitch will be in America. We are playing in West Indies but at different venues. You also have to look at the combination of the opposition team. One thing we noticed was the middle-order hitting. Our top order hitting is okay, not that bad. We wanted someone to play this role freely in the middle overs, without worrying about who was bowling.”
There is no alternative to Pandya…. Whatever he can do when he is fit…- Agarkar said on Hardik being appointed as VC.
India captain Rohit Sharma and Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) chief selector Ajit Agarkar addressed a press conference on Thursday, May 2. This press conference was regarding the T-20 World Cup for which the board had recently announced the team. The selectors have appointed Hardik Pandya as the vice-captain for this World Cup, about which there is a lot of talk. Let us tell you that Pandya was named as the vice-captain of the Indian team during the World Cup 2023. After the all-rounder’s disappointing performance as captain and batsman in the current IPL, it was being said that someone else could be appointed as vice-captain in place of Pandya. Agarkar addressed the issue and said that he has confidence in Pandya’s ability. Ajit Agarkar gave a big statement regarding Hardik Pandya He also said that as a player, Pandya has many aspects which make things easy for any captain. Agarkar said, “There was no talk about the vice-captaincy. He has played all the matches for Mumbai Indians so far. We have to play the first match only after a month and a few days. If he is fit, there is no substitute for what he can do. Agarkar Said that he is making a comeback after a long time from injury. We hope he is working on it. He can give a lot of options and balance to Rohit when bowling. Hardik has recovered from an ankle injury before the IPL. There is a lot of anger among the fans over making him the captain of Mumbai in place of Rohit. Hardik, who was struggling with poor form in the IPL as the captain of Mumbai Indians, has surprised the cricket world by being made the vice-captain of the T20 World Cup team. Pandya played his last match for India in the ODI World Cup in October 2023 against Bangladesh.
