T20 cricket has become easier for batsmen than bowlers. Ricky Ponting (Image Source: Getty Images) The new format of cricket, T20 cricket, has changed a lot in today’s times. In modern day cricket, there is no longer an equal competition between the ball and the bat, but now the batsmen are liking this format more. In today’s T20 cricket, batsmen are seen batting at a stormy pace. Batsmen have changed the current scenario of the game. Every day some batsman is seen playing new shots. So there was a time when a score of 200 runs was considered the winning total in T20 cricket, but now even a score of 250 runs has started falling short to win the match. So in the ongoing IPL, new records are being made in terms of runs every other day. Also, this season Sunrisers Hyderabad has created history by scoring 287 runs in an innings. Looking at this score, it seems that the day is not far when the score of 300 runs will be seen in T20 cricket. On the other hand, now in the ongoing IPL season, Delhi Capitals team head coach and former Australian cricket team captain Ricky Ponting has given a big statement regarding the continuous changes in T20 cricket. Ricky Ponting gave a big statement regarding the changes taking place in T20 cricket. Let us tell you that while talking about the changes in T20 cricket, in a discussion with ESPN Cricinfo, Ricky Ponting said – I did not think that a score of 300 would ever be possible, but it looks like it is going to happen now. It’s not like that anymore in T20 cricket where you go in and take a few balls to get set. Now when a player comes to bat, he starts hitting from the first ball. Ricky Ponting further said – Matthew Hayden has been telling me that friend, I am telling you that this is the future of T20 cricket, but I still keep telling him that no, it is not so.
No place in the World Cup team, out of the central contract… 5 big problems in Shreyas Iyer’s career in these 2 years

Before this IPL match, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) assistant coach Abhishek Nair has said something special about Shreyas Iyer. Shreyas Iyer’s last few years have been very ups and downs. * Shreyas Iyer was out of the IPL last year due to a back injury. * He then made a comeback in Asia Cup 2023 but due to back problem, he was able to play very limited games. * Iyer fought against the pain and scored 530 runs at an average of 66.25 and strike rate of 113.25 in 11 matches in the ODI World Cup 2023. * But in the year 2024, he was dropped from the Test team after playing 2 Test matches against England. Shreyas Iyer scored 31, 6, 0 and 4 runs in the 2 test matches played against England. * The biggest shock he got was when BCCI advised him to play Ranji Trophy and he showed arbitrariness. As a result, he was dropped from the central contract. * After that another bad thing came for him that he was not selected in the team for the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024. Despite such a bad time, Iyer has been able to maintain a positive mindset and is focusing on performing well to bounce back. Talking about this phase of Shreyas, coach Abhishek Nair said- “He is one of those people who is mentally very strong. He doesn’t have the habit of complaining about anything. Some things are not under his control but fitness is something which is within Iyer’s control. Our medical staff has worked very hard on Iyer. Despite being rejected from the team, Iyer’s thinking is very positive and his focus is on making a comeback.
