It is noteworthy that this time this tournament is starting from June 2 and will be played jointly hosted by West Indies and USA. So the Indian team has announced a 15-member team for this multinational tournament on 30th April. All-rounder Shivam Dube has been included in this team for the first time, who is performing amazingly for the five-time champion Chennai Super Kings in the ongoing IPL 2024. Batting in the middle order for the team, he has scored a total of 350 runs in 10 matches with the help of 3 half-centuries. During this period, Dubey’s strike rate has been 171.56. Also, he is currently at third position in terms of hitting most sixes in the tournament. The ability to play big shots against spin bowlers makes Dubey a special batsman. So now a big statement from former all-rounder player Irfan Pathan, who was a part of the 2007 T20 World Cup winning Indian team, regarding Shivam Dubey has come out. Pathan says that Dubey will definitely bowl when the time comes. Irfan Pathan gave a big statement regarding Shivam Dubey Let us tell you that regarding the selection of Shivam Dubey in the Indian T20 World Cup 2024, Irfan said – Shivam Dubey has been selected because he can give you 1 or 2 overs by bowling. He has been bowling regularly in the nets for Chennai Super Kings. He did not get a chance to bowl due to the Impact Player rule. He is capable of bowling in the match and when the time comes and is needed, he can bowl at least 1 or 2 overs for Team India. Irfan further said- As far as his hard-hitting batting is concerned, I am really looking forward to the match of Chennai Super Kings against Sunrisers Hyderabad. I want to see what kind of batting he is going to do against Pat Cummins. I know Cummins will bowl to him outside the off stump, but I also wanted to see how Shivam would counter him. Because he will also be seen batting against Pat Cummins in the T20 World Cup.
“Indian cricket should not give him so much importance…”- Irfan Pathan said about Hardik Pandya
Hardik Pandya is struggling with poor form in IPL 2024. Hardik Pandya & Irfan Pathan (Photo Source: X/Twitter/Getty Images) Hardik Pandya is captaining Mumbai Indians in IPL 2024, but neither his captaincy nor his individual performance has been good this season. Due to poor form, Hardik’s place in the Indian team for T20 World Cup 2024 is at stake. Meanwhile, former Indian veteran player Irfan Pathan has given a big statement regarding Hardik Pandya. Cricket commentator says that the Indian management should not give priority to Hardik Pandya as an all-rounder player at the international level, as he has so far failed to give his best in ICC tournaments. Hardik Pandya has not made that much impact at the international level – Irfan Pathan Irfan Pathan said in the press room show, Ticket to World Cup on Star Sports, ‘Indian cricket needs to make it clear that they should not give him (Hardik Pandya) as much priority as they have given so far, because we have still not won the World Cup. And if you think you are a primary all-rounder, you have to make that kind of impact at the international level. As far as the all-rounder is concerned, he has not made that much impact at the international level, we are only thinking about the potential. Giving the example of the Australian team, Irfan Pathan stressed that the Indian management will have to stop giving priority to any one player. Because everyone in the team is a superstar, and if the team doesn’t do that they will never win big tournaments. Irfan Pathan further said, ‘We are getting confused between IPL performance and international performance. That’s a big difference, first of all he has to play the whole year. Indian cricket needs to stop doing this. Stop prioritizing individuals, if you do, you won’t win big tournaments. What Australia has been doing for many years is that they are really prioritizing the team game. Making everyone a superstar, there is no one superstar, everyone in the team is a superstar.
“Rohit, Virat and Jaiswal…”- Irfan Pathan named the top-3 players for the T20 World Cup.
Rohit and Yashasvi Jaiswal will open the innings and Kohli will play at number three – Irfan Pathan Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli (Image Credit- Twitter T20 World Cup will be played in USA and West Indies right after IPL 2024. Team India is to be announced for this mega tournament by the end of April. Which 15 Indian players will get a place for this ICC event still remains a big question. Everyone from fans to cricket experts are giving their opinion regarding this. In this series, Team India’s former veteran all-rounder Irfan Pathan has given his stand regarding Team India’s World Cup squad. He has given the names of top-3 players. Let us tell you that the selection of some players for the World Cup squad is being considered certain. At the same time, the fitness and form of some players has increased the tension of the selectors. Irfan Pathan names top-3 players for T-20 World Cup Former all-rounder Irfan Pathan has named his top-3 playing eleven of Team India for the T-20 World Cup. He has selected Rohit, Yashasvi and Kohli as top-3. Let us tell you that Rohit will be the captain of the team in this World Cup. But Jaiswal has presented his claim by scoring a century. With Yashasvi coming into form, Gill is in danger of being dropped from the squad. At the same time, Virat’s place is also considered confirmed. Irfan Pathan wrote on X, “Now the World Cup is coming near. My top-3 for Team India. Rohit Sharma (in form and captain too), Yashasvi Jaiswal (he is doing well in IPL and even before scoring a century) Virat Kohli (There should be no question about his place or his strike rate. His strike rate in T20I 138 plus which is better than Chris Gayle’s +51 average and his strike rate in this IPL season is 150. He further said, “Shubman Gill will be in the team but will not be a part of the starting playing XI. He has scored a lot of runs in international cricket and this boy is now playing a different role in the IPL. He is making good use of the powerplay, running fast and hitting sixes. So no matter what happens, you don’t want to leave Gill out.” Now that World Cup is nearing. My top 3 for team India. 1) Rohit Sharma (in form as well as captain) 2) Yashasvi Jaiswal (been saying that he should be there even before his 100 purely cos he was performing well for team India before the ipl) 3) Virat Kohli.

No ball and Legal delivery..? Irfan Pathan gave a big reaction on Virat Kohli’s controversial no ball out.
Virat Kohli was out in a controversial manner after scoring 8 runs against Kolkata Knight Riders. Virat Kohli Irfan Pathan (Photo Source: X/Twitter) In the 36th match of IPL 2024, Royal Challengers Bangalore had to suffer a humiliating defeat by 1 run against Kolkata Knight Riders. This is RCB’s seventh defeat this season, the team is now almost out of the race for the playoffs. This match played between KKR vs RCB at Eden Gardens Stadium has become a topic of discussion due to the controversial no ball out of Virat Kohli. Virat Kohli (18) was caught by Harshit Rana on a full toss ball in the third over. It was a slow ball, which looked like it was falling towards the batsman, but when Virat made contact with the ball, the ball was above his waist height. Kohli believed that the ball had landed above his waist, and it should be called a no ball. Virat Kohli immediately took DRS, the third umpire resorted to Hawk Eye system. According to the umpire, Kohli had gone beyond the crease, hence he was declared out. Virat Kohli looked unhappy with this decision of the third umpire and was seen expressing anger. Fans and many cricket experts are also criticizing this decision on social media. However, former Indian veteran player Irfan Pathan believes that the umpire’s decision was absolutely correct, that ball was not a no ball. Irfan Pathan gave a big statement on the decision of the third umpire Cricket commentator Irfan Pathan has shared a video on Instagram, in which he has given his reaction on the whole matter and explained the rules, saying, ‘BCCI has measured the waist height of all the players this season. From there you get an accurate rule to measure where the ball will land, whether you are standing in front or behind. Virat Kohli was standing ahead, the ball was a full toss, if this ball had been faster then it would have gone above the waist. Irfan Pathan further said, ‘The ball was a slower one, and was going deeper, so where the impact happened, all the fans felt that the ball was going above their waist. But after the ball was going deep and if Virat Kohli had stood at the pop-in crease, his height would have been lower than what was measured, meaning it would have been a legal delivery. According to the rules and according to me, this was a legal delivery.
“The most expensive player cannot be the weak link of the team” – Irfan Pathan said about Mitchell Starc
Former Indian all-rounder Irfan Pathan has criticized the poor performance of IPL’s most expensive player Mitchell Starc. Mitchell Starc (Pic Source-X) In the mini auction held before IPL 2024, Australian fast bowler Mitchell Starc was bought by Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) for Rs 24.75 crore. With this he became the most expensive player in IPL history. Obviously, when a player is bought for so much money, the expectations from him increase a lot. However, Starc has not been able to perform as per expectations in the ongoing IPL season. Former Indian all-rounder Irfan Pathan has slammed IPL’s most expensive player Mitchell Starc for his poor performance. In the match played against Rajasthan Royals on Tuesday, Mitchell Starc could not take wickets and was also very expensive. Mitchell Starc has returned to IPL after almost 9 years. Against RR, Mitchell Starc gave away 50 runs in 4 overs and did not get any wicket. Irfan Pathan shared this post about Mitchell Starc Irfan Pathan tweeted on Twitter, “The most expensive player in the team cannot be your weak link.” Mitchell Starc Before the match against Rajasthan Royals, he had hinted at a comeback in the match against Lucknow Super Giants. He took three wickets in this match, where he took three wickets for 28 runs in 4 overs. Most expensive player in your team can’t be your weak link. — Irfan Pathan (@IrfanPathan) April 16, 2024 Mitchell Starc gave 11 runs in the first over and 13 runs in the second over against Rajasthan Royals. He bowled both these overs in the powerplay. After this he gave eight runs in the 10th over. He gave 18 runs in the 18th over. Thanks to this over, Rajasthan was successful in making a comeback in the match. RR needed only 28 runs in the last two overs. Harshit Rana and Varun Chakraborty could not defend 28 runs in the last 2 overs. Rajasthan won on the last ball of the match. Rajasthan Royals defeated Kolkata Knight Riders by two wickets in a thrilling match on Tuesday. At one time Kolkata team was winning the match easily but no KKR batsman could dismiss Butler.
I think Dhoni will bat against MI with his batting order…: Irfan Pathan’s surprising statement about the former CSK captain
According to Irfan Pathan, Mahendra Singh Dhoni can be seen batting slightly higher in the match played against Mumbai Indians. Dhoni And Irfan Pathan (Photo Source: Twitter) Today i.e. on 14th April, the second match of the double header of IPL 2024 will be played between Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. Both the teams would like to win this match. However, before the start of this match, former Indian all-rounder Irfan Pathan has given a big statement about Mahendra Singh Dhoni. According to Irfan Pathan, Mahendra Singh Dhoni can be seen batting slightly higher in the match played against Mumbai Indians. Let us tell you, Chennai team has won three out of five matches in IPL 2024 and Dhoni has played only 21 balls this season. However, he has scored 39 runs in 21 balls with the help of 4 fours and 3 sixes. Irfan Pathan said on Star Sports, ‘The expectations will remain the same. Although Dhoni is 42 years old. But we will say this because he is young and he has maintained himself like this. Earlier, when Dhoni used to come to bat in the 10th or 11th over, he used to make the match and make his team win. Now he has reduced his role and he comes in the last 2 or 3 overs and plays big shots. Irfan Pathan also presented his side regarding Suryakumar Yadav Mumbai Indians had earlier played a match against Royal Challengers Bangalore in which Suryakumar Yadav played a stormy inning of 51 runs in 19 balls and played an important role in his team’s victory. Ravindra Jadeja from Chennai bowled brilliantly against Kolkata Knight Riders and led his team to victory. A tremendous clash can be seen between these two players in this match. Irfan Pathan further said, ‘This clash will definitely be seen because Jadeja will come to bowl at the time when Suryakumar Yadav is batting. Who will win is a big question. Ravindra Jadeja bowls on the line of the stumps and Suryakumar Yadav looks to play offside and sometimes leg side shots on such balls. Not only this, he also plays sweep shots. But he also knows that he is a very strong bowler in front of him. I think Suryakumar Yadav can win this battle because this match is in Mumbai and he knows this pitch very well.

IPL 2024: “How will Mitchell Starc return to form this season? Irfan Pathan told the formula
Mitchell Starc & Irfan Pathan (Photo Source: X/Twitter) Team India’s former veteran all-rounder Irfan Pathan has given a big statement regarding out-of-form Mitchell Starc. He explained how Mitchell Starc can regain his form in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024. Kolkata’s fast bowlers have proved to be very expensive so far this season, they have bowled 8 overs so far this season, in which they gave away 100 runs. So far he has played 2 matches against Hyderabad and Bangalore. Let us tell you that in the auction held before IPL 2024, KKR had bought Starc for Rs 24.75 crore, but till now he has not been able to perform as per expectations. For this reason, Starc is being trolled a lot regarding his price tag. On Friday, March 29, Kolkata defeated Bangalore by 7 wickets. In this match, Starc recorded figures of 4-0-47-0. Pathan said Starc needs to find a way to make the ball more lethal for right-handed batsmen. The veteran said that once Starc finds his line-length, it will be very difficult for any opposition team to handle him. Irfan Pathan told Mitchell Starc the formula for comeback Regarding Starc, Irfan Pathan said on Star Sports, “When Starc is swinging the ball, he is in his best form. When that swing starts for a right-handed batsman, he can be even more lethal. And I haven’t seen that in the last two games. Perhaps he has not yet been able to adapt himself to the Indian situation. “Once he adapts to these conditions, or starts getting the inswing, he will be a bowler to watch throughout the IPL.” Steve Smith, Starc’s teammate in the Australian team, said that if Starc gets his swing and bowls at a speed of around 145 km/h, he can become a big threat to any opposition team. Smith said, “I think today he will face a right-handed batsman.” wobble Was trying to swing, which is a good option, but I think he has to keep the right line-length for that. He is a left arm fast bowler who can bowl at 145+ KMPH. For a right-handed batsman, there is no better option than the in-swing of the ball. This is one of the toughest balls to face. So if he gets that swing back, he will become one of the most lethal bowlers again.”

Actually, cricket fans were expecting that there would be tension between Gautam Gambhir and Virat Kohli during the RCB vs KKR match, but Delhi cricketers dashed everyone’s expectations and made up. Gautam Gambhir shook hands with Virat Kohli Let us tell you, during the IPL last year, when Gautam Gambhir was the mentor of Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), he had a fight with Virat Kohli during the match against RCB, the reason for which was Naveen-ul-Haq. After which this issue dragged on for a long time, due to which the match was being seen as Gambhir vs Kohli. But during a strategic timeout of RCB’s innings in Bengaluru, Gautam Gambhir shook hands with Virat Kohli and they also hugged, which left everyone speechless. On which now Irfan Pathan, who has played with both Gambhir and Kohli, has shared his opinion. Gautam Gambhir really came forward: Irfan Pathan Irfan Pathan said on Star Sports, “Gautam Gambhir, the senior guy, really came forward. Sometimes you cross the line, but as soon as that point is passed, when you meet in the future, when you meet now, you meet well. That’s what we saw today.” Let us tell you, Kolkata defeated Bengaluru by seven wickets in this match, which was RCB’s second defeat in the ongoing IPL 2024.
IPL 2024: SRH is putting a stop to Pat Cummins’ momentum- Irfan Pathan

(Image Source: X) Indian Premier League 2024: Former Indian all-rounder Irfan Pathan (Irfan Pathan) said that Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) has ruined the rhythm of Australian captain Pat Cummins. Let us tell you, Australia has Pat Cummins (Pat Cummins) won the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 for a record sixth time by defeating India in November last year. Earlier, he had given the ICC World Test Championship to the Kangaroos. Meanwhile, Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) bought Pat Cummins for Rs 20.50 crore in the IPL 2024 mini-auction held in Dubai last year, thus becoming the second most expensive player in the history of IPL. SRH is restricting the pace of Pat Cummins: Irfan Pathan On which Irfan Pathan said that Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) has put a stop to Cummins’ rhythm. The commentator further said that he also has doubts about Cummins’ ability in T20 cricket. Let us tell you, Cummins has scored 379 runs in 42 matches at an average of 18.95, while taking 45 wickets at an economy of 8.54. Irfan Pathan was quoted by Star Sports as saying: “Sunrisers Hyderabad have been riding on Pat Cummins’s form, which has been particularly good for him in the last two seasons, be it the ICC ODI World Cup, the WTC final or the way He is performing in international cricket.” ‘SRH will hope that he comes and leads the team to victory’ Irfan Pathan further said, “My doubts are only because his IPL figures are not that impressive, and then the economy of eight and a half is not right, which is too much for a world-class fast bowler. I hope that can change this season. Therefore, Sunrisers Hyderabad will be hoping that he comes in and gives the team the win they are looking for. But I really believe that T20 cricket is a different format of the game compared to 50-over cricket and Test cricket.”
