Speaking to Star Sports, Cummins described the feeling as ‘very good’ when the entire Indian fans were not against you. Cummins said, “India is like a second home. We spend a lot of time here. In IPL you get your home teams. In such a situation, you really feel that you have a lot of fans or at least cricket fans who support you. A lot of people come up to me and say, ‘I am from Kolkata or I support KKR. So it’s a good feeling that everyone is not against you.” SRH will be desperate to make a comeback this season after a disappointing performance last season.

Cummins has dismissed Kohli five times in Tests, twice in ODIs and once in T20Is. Cummins said, “I I believe in focusing on what I do best. Those guys are so nice, if you make even the slightest mistake they will find a way to throw you off your game. It is always good to play against Virat. He has troubled me many times. I have also put him in trouble many times. “It’s always pretty cool.”

Beth Mooney is not leading from the front – Sushma Verma On this he said, I think he has not done anything till now. They have a strong batting unit. Beth Mooney is the captain, but she isn’t leading the team from the front. She is not batting like that nor has that kind of approach been seen. Looking at her body language on the field, I am saying that she is making a bit of a mess as a captain. She further said, sometimes she is not happy even with field placements. As a captain, how much do you understand the Indian players, the Indian conditions and your limitations? This is all you need to know. The former Gujarat Giants player said that Mooney himself needs to perform first. Ashley Gardner has not lived up to her big name so far. I also expect good performance from Sneh Rana Hemlata because he is a big name in Indian cricket.

Virat and Faf will not open for RCB in IPL 2024 – shocking statement of former cricketer
Du Plessis was the leading run-scorer for RCB in IPL 2023, Faf du Plessis and Virat Kohli (Photo Source: IPL/BCCI) Former Team India cricketer Aakash Chopra believes that if the pair of Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis do not perform well at the beginning of IPL 2024, then Royal Challengers Bangalore may change their opening combination. Du Plessis was the leading run-scorer for RCB in IPL 2023, scoring 730 runs in 14 innings at an average of 56.15 and a strike rate of 153.68. Kohli was the second-highest run-scorer for the franchise last season, scoring 639 runs in 14 innings at an average of 53.25 and a strike rate of 139.82. In a video shared on his YouTube channel, Chopra did not pick Kohli and Du Plessis in his top three opening pair in IPL 2024. Explaining the reason behind this, he said, “RCB’s Faf du Plessis and Virat Kohli were a very successful pair last year. They can still be very, very good. The only caveat on why I haven’t placed him in the top three is that Faf has played very little cricket since then. This will be a problem. In such a situation, you may see a change in the starting combination.” Chopra believes that if the opening combination of Kohli and Du Plessis fails then RCB can open with Will Jacques or Cameron Green. However, he said that the RCB captain can be dismissed at his own peril and Kohli is Kohli. RCB’s full squad for IPL 2024: Faf du Plessis (captain), Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar, Anuj Rawat, Dinesh Karthik, Suyyash Prabhudesai, Glenn Maxwell, Will Jacques, Alzarri Joseph, Yash Dayal, Mahipal Lomror, Karn Sharma, Manoj Bhandage, Mayank Dagar, Sourav Chauhan, Swapnil Singh. , Vijaykumar Vishak, Akash Deep, Lockie Ferguson, Tom Curran, Mohammed Siraj, Reece Topley, Himanshu Sharma, Rajan Kumar, Cameron Green, Alzarri Joseph, Yash Dayal, Tom Curran, Lockie Ferguson, Swapnil Singh, Saurav Chauhan.

First class cricket and IPL can be played together – Sourav Ganguly’s big statement
Former India captain Sourav Ganguly has highlighted the importance of balancing red-ball and white-ball cricket among young players. The former BCCI president, who currently serves as the Director of Cricket of Delhi Capitals, expressed concern over his exclusion from Ranji Trophy matches in preparation for the Indian Premier League (IPL). He emphasized that budding cricketers need experience in both the formats to hone their skills effectively. Ganguly, an important figure in Indian cricket, said that the neglect of red-ball cricket is contrary to the norms followed by players in the past. He instilled confidence in the BCCI to address this matter appropriately. First class cricket and IPL can be played together – Sourav Ganguly “He can play both red ball and white ball,” Sourav Ganguly was quoted as saying by Times of India. Along with a stint in first class cricket, there can also be an IPL career. IPL starts one month after first class cricket ends. I don’t see any problem. Many top quality players play Test cricket and white ball cricket. You look at Kohli, Rohit, Bumrah, KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant.” He further said, “On the world stage, there is Mitchell Marsh. He is now Australia’s leading red-ball player. Harry Brook plays cricket with the red ball. David Warner played a lot of Test cricket but he was one of the best white ball players. Even in my days, Sachin, Rahul and I played Test cricket and then played white-ball cricket. There is no reason to say that you can play one format and not the other.” Shreyas Iyer and Ishan Kishan were dropped from BCCI’s central contract for not playing first class cricket. Kishan, who took a break due to personal reasons during the South Africa tour, recently returned to action in the DY Patil T20 tournament. On the other hand, despite being declared fit by the NCA, Iyer did not play for Mumbai in the Ranji Trophy.
Hawkeye’s founder Paul Hawkins gave a big statement on Ben Stokes’s statement of overturning the umpire’s call.
At present, there is a lot of discussion about Hawkeye in the cricket world. Paul Hawkins (Image Credit- Twitter) These days, there is a constant discussion in the cricket world about umpire’s call. So, in the ongoing Test series between India and England, the way Jack Crawley and Joe Root were out on the umpire’s call, this issue got further aired. On the other hand, England’s Test captain Ben Stokes had even said that umpires’ calls should be removed from the Decision Review System (DRS). However, now Paul Hawkins, founder of HawkEye, a technology that determines impact in umpires’ calls, has given his opinion on this issue. Paul Hawkins gave a big statement Let us tell you that regarding the technology used in DRS, Hawkins said on The Analyst Show – When ICC was considering bringing DRS, the idea of bringing Umpire’s Call was David Richardson’s, because he was the one in charge at that time. Therefore, in international cricket, the umpire’s call is prepared in such a way that the umpires can be evaluated internationally. But if players are out LBW wrongly then they have got a margin of error in that technique. However, it is up to the umpire whether he marks it (impact) or not. Initially it was a point, due to which it could be easily sold to the umpire. Actually Hawkeye is more accurate than the umpire’s call, but when you use any technique from zero, the umpire’s call matters. Except cricket, in other sports it will be certain whether he will be out or not out. From this statement given by Paul Hawkins, you can guess that there is no problem in Hawkeye technology, but if umpire’s call is to be given importance then margin of error will always be seen.
