(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.”

IPL 2024: ‘On the basis of bowling, the team can lift the trophy this season’ – Irfan Pathan’s big statement about RCB
The last season of IPL was a mixed bag for RCB, the team was able to win 7 out of 14 matches. RCB Team & Irfan Pathan (Photo Source: Getty Images, Irfan Pathan/Instagram) Irfan Pathan on RCB: IPL 2024 The first match will be played between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Chennai Super Kings on March 22 at Chepauk. Royal Challengers Bangalore is one of the most famous franchise teams in the world. RCB has reached the IPL finals thrice, but the team has not been able to win the trophy even once. Faf du Plessis has been leading the team for the last two seasons after leaving the captaincy of Virat Kohli. Last season the team had a mixed bag, RCB was able to win 7 out of 14 matches. This season the team would like to win the trophy by showing excellent performance. RCB’s batting lineup for IPL 2024 looks great, but experts are constantly giving their views regarding the bowling attack. Meanwhile, former Indian veteran player Irfan Pathan believes that Royal Challengers Bangalore can win the first IPL title this season on the basis of its strong bowling attack. IPL 2024: they have express speed– Irfan Pathan Former Indian player Irfan Pathan became a part of Star Sports’ show Game Plan. During the show, Irfan Pathan while talking about the chances of RCB and Virat Kohli winning the first IPL title this year, said, ‘Now he (Virat Kohli) has got a team, as far as batting is concerned, I really feel that batting has become longer now, which was not the case some time ago. Irfan Pathan further said, ‘Many people are not giving a chance to RCB because they feel that their bowling is not the same as before. I also think the bowling could have been better, but what they did is that they have express pace on that pitch. If you can bowl 140+ consistently on flat pitches like the Chinnaswamy pitch, sometimes it can work. You might be surprised that this bowling unit can lift a trophy. This will be a very special moment for Virat Kohli because he was wanting this since 2008 but he could not touch that trophy.
“If this happens, Indian cricket will not get the desired result”- Irfan Pathan’s tweet on Ishan and Iyer’s ouster.
Star cricketers Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer have been removed from the central contract of BCCI (Board of Control for Cricket in India). Team India’s former veteran all-rounder Irfan made a tweet regarding these two players which is now rapidly going viral on social media. BCCI recently announced the contracts for the 2023-24 season, and Kishan-Iyer were not included in the list due to not playing domestic cricket. Irfan Pathan was also a little surprised to see the names of Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer not in this list of central contracts. The former all-rounder posted about this on X and expressed hope that both Kishan and Iyer will make a strong comeback for the Indian team. He also talked about how the rules should remain the same for everyone after BCCI mentioned star all-rounder Hardik Pandya’s name in the contract list. Irfan Pathan posted about Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer Irfan Pathan posted an ex and wrote, “Both Shreyas and Ishaan are talented cricketers. Hopefully they will bounce back and come back stronger. If players like Hardik don’t want to play red-ball cricket, should he and other players like him participate in white-ball domestic cricket when not on national duty? If this is not applied to all, Indian cricket will not be able to achieve the desired results!” They are talented cricketers, both Shreyas and Ishan. Hoping they bounce back and come back stronger. If players like Hardik don’t want to play red ball cricket, should he and others like him participate in white-ball domestic cricket when they aren’t on national duty? If this… — Irfan Pathan (@IrfanPathan) February 29, 2024 The surprising thing is that Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer did not get the central contract because both of them did not play in Ranji Trophy. However, Shreyas Iyer played Ranji Trophy after the South Africa tour and then was also a part of the Test team. Now he is also going to play the semi-finals, but the selectors did the same with him as they did with Ishaan. According to BCCI rules, if a player has played 3 Tests, 8 ODIs or 10 T20I matches from October 1 till the release of the central contract, then he is included in the central contract. Both Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer fit into this. He did not find a place in the list of annual contracts, while Hardik Pandya, who was out of World Cup 2023 after only five matches, has been included in A grade.
IPL 2024: “Even if MS Dhoni plays on one leg, people will still like to see him play”- Irfan Pathan
MS Dhoni And Irfan Pathan (Photo Source: Twitter) MS Dhoni is set to return to the field through IPL 2024, where he will once again lead the Chennai Super Kings (CSK). Given the knee injury, there were doubts about whether Dhoni would play in the upcoming season after IPL 2023. But the CSK captain has confirmed that he will be a part of the 17th edition of the tournament. Meanwhile, former Indian all-rounder Irfan Pathan believes that IPL 2024 will not be Mahi’s last season because his fitness is amazing. Let us tell you that Dhoni was seen troubled due to knee problem in IPL 2023 but he did not miss any match. He had undergone knee surgery after CSK won the trophy for the fifth time. Irfan Pathan spoke about MS Dhoni Irfan Pathan was asked in a show on Star Sports whether this Dhoni Will this be the last season of? On this the former all-rounder said, “Definitely not.” I met him about a month ago. He had long hair. He is growing his hair. He is going back to his old days and is looking extremely fit. He has turned 40 and is still fit. I hope he continues to play for the franchise and all the fans.” Pathan further said, “I said this… Obviously it was an exaggeration, even if Dhoni plays on one leg, people would still like to see him play.” Pathan feels that Dhoni will remain associated with CSK even after his retirement from IPL. CSK bought Dhoni in the IPL 2008 auction and he has been a part of the franchise ever since. In 2016, when Chennai was banned for two years, Dhoni played for Rising Pune Supergiants. Let us tell you that under the leadership of Dhoni, Chennai Super Kings became IPL 2023 champion. CSK will now try their best to defend the title. Dhoni retired from international cricket in 2020 but he is active in IPL. 42 year old Dhoni is very fit. There is no answer to his agility on the field.

IND vs ENG: Virat is back in his best form….It will be difficult to stop him – Irfan Pathan
Speaking on Star Sports ahead of the first Test match in Hyderabad, Irfan Pathan said that Virat Kohli looked at his best in the South Africa Test series. Kohli returned to the Test format and performed well on the difficult pitches of South Africa. Kohli struggled alone for India in the second innings of the first Test match, but he did not have a partner. India lost that Test match, but made a strong comeback in the second and final match to win and end the series on a draw. Irfan Pathan gave a big statement regarding Virat Kohli Irfan Pathan on Star Sports said, “Virat Kohli is back to his best, this is good news for Indian cricket and Virat Kohli fans. He was exceptional in South Africa and had fantastic foot movement. “He is showing aggressive signs with his footwork and that could help him score runs in the Test series against England.” Kohli will be eyeing to complete 9000 Test runs in the series. To reach this record the batsman needs more than 150 runs. Kohli will be only the fourth Test batsman for India to reach 9,000 Test runs. Before him, Sachin Tendulkar, Sunil Gavaskar and Rahul Dravid have achieved this feat. Kohli is also close to his 30th Test century and needs just one more century to achieve the feat. India’s senior batsman Virat will try to score runs in all formats before the T20 World Cup to be held in June. Many fans believe that this could be Kohli’s last ICC tournament in the T20 format.
