DTVHINDIWhat is Diamond and Golden Duck Out? There is a lot of talk about it after India vs Sri Lanka match
There are 8 types of duck outs in cricket but in this article we will talk about 2 special duck outs which are Golden Duck Out and Diamond Duck Out Golden Duck out vs Diamond Duck out (Source Golden Duck out vs Diamond Duck out: Be it a street cricketer or an international cricket player, whenever they come to the crease to bat, everyone has this thought in their mind that they should not get “out on the first ball”. Getting out on the first ball is called duck out in cricket. But have you ever wondered how many types of duck outs are there in cricket? Actually, there are 8 types of duck outs in cricket but in this article we will talk about 2 special duck outs which are Golden Duck out and Diamond Duck out. The question of golden duck out and diamond duck out arose in India vs Sri Lanka match In fact, in the second match of the 3-match T20 series played between India and Sri Lanka, Sri Lankan batsman Dasun Shanaka was out for the second consecutive time without opening his account. In the first match, he was run out without playing a ball, while in the second T20 match, he was out after playing 1 ball. Now in such a situation, there is a question in the minds of people that whether he got out on golden duck in both the matches or is it some other type of diamond duck out because he got out on zero in both the matches but he played 2 balls in one match and got out on the very first ball in one match. What is Golden Duck? When a batsman gets out on the very first ball, then it is called a golden duck out. Whereas, when a batsman gets out on the second ball without scoring any run, then it is called a silver duck out. That means Dasun Shanaka did not get a diamond but a golden and silver duck out. What is Diamond Duck Out? In cricket, when a batsman gets out without scoring any runs, it is called a duck. When a batsman gets out without playing a single ball, it is called a diamond duck. This happens when a batsman obstructs the fielding and gets out without being run out, timed out or facing the ball.
SL vs IND: Before the first T20 match, this Sri Lankan bowler became a fan of this Indian legend, said- I learn a lot from him…
This Sri Lankan cricketer has played a lot of cricket in the IPL under the captaincy of this player. Maheesh Theekshana and ms dhoni (Image Credit- Twitter The Indian cricket team is currently on a tour of Sri Lanka. Team India’s tour will begin with the first T20 match on Saturday, 27 July. However, before the start of this tour of the Indian team, a big statement has come from Sri Lanka cricket team spin bowler Mahesh Theekshana. Teeksha says that she has learned a lot from MS Dhoni in bowling. Let us tell you that in IPL, Teeksha has played for Chennai Super Kings under Dhoni’s captaincy for many seasons. Mahesh Theekshana gave a big statement Let us tell you that recently, as quoted by Hindustan Times, Mahish Teeksha said- I have learned many things from MS Dhoni. But especially, how he helped me bowl to those batsmen who used to play sweep shots against me. Teeksha further said- With my action I will bowl fast, but he will still hit the boundary. He asked me to bowl a little fuller, similarly I also developed my yorker ball. I have gradually gained confidence while bowling in the death overs. Dhoni always has a plan, but he first focuses on the bowler’s plan and if it doesn’t work only then he guides you by telling you about his planning. On the other hand, if we give you information about 23-year-old Mahish Theekshana, he will be seen playing for Sri Lanka in the ongoing three-match T20 series against India. It will be interesting to see how he is going to perform in this series? But in the recently concluded Lanka Premier League 2024, Theekshana took a total of 10 wickets at an economy rate of 7.35.

(Image Source: BCCI/X) BCCI recently announced the squad of Team India for the Sri Lanka tour starting from 27th July. Three ODIs and three T20 series will be played between the two teams on this tour. The selectors took a lot of time to announce this series. It is believed that there was a lot of debate between Gautam Gambhir, who recently became the head coach of Team India, and the selectors and only then the team was announced for this tour. This selection meeting of Team India lasted for several hours over two days. If reports are to be believed, there were differences of opinion as well as heated debates in the meeting. During the meeting itself, many players were called and discussions were held with them about long term planning. It is being said that, Surya being selected as the vice-captain before Hardik in captaincy and Gill being selected as the vice-captain before Rahul in ODIs is a very important step taken for the future of Indian cricket. The Indian Express report claims that this selection meeting was different from all other meetings as it was full of heated debates and disagreements. Phone calls were made to the players and the long term planning of the team management was explained to them. Players showed more trust in Suryakumar Yadav than Hardik Pandya According to the Indian Express report, there was also a view in the team selection meeting that not making the current vice-captain of the T20 team, i.e. Hardik Pandya, the captain would be unfair to him. Especially when he has performed amazingly during the World Cup. An Indian Express report claims that due to the trust of the players, the scales tilted in favor of Suryakumar Yadav. The report states that the ‘feedback’ received by the BCCI was that the players ‘trusted Yadav more than Pandya’ and were comfortable working under him. Surya’s man management is said to have impressed the selectors. When Ishan Kishan was about to leave the Indian camp midway through the South Africa tour last year, Yadav tried to convince him to stay back.
