(Image Source: X) Team India recently registered a spectacular victory in the T20 World Cup 2024, in which India did not lose a single match in the entire tournament under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma. India won the title by defeating South Africa in the final match. While this night was the most special for the Indian team, it proved to be a very disappointing night for South Africa. South Africa’s star batsman David Miller recently shared his feelings after losing the T20 World Cup final. He told what emotions he went through when Suryakumar Yadav caught his catch on the boundary rope. What happened in the final match of IND vs SA T20 World Cup 2024? South Africa needed 16 runs to win in the last over of the match. Hardik Pandya bowled the last over. On the very first ball, Miller played a straight shot, which looked like it was going for a six. However, Suryakumar Yadav took a brilliant catch on the boundary rope, in which he caught the ball after juggling it several times. Speaking to ESPNcricinfo, Miller said, “It is very difficult to explain, but yes, I was angry at that moment. Disappointment, failure, all these negative things came to my mind. I watch a lot of different sports and they always talk about that moment when you get a chance to win the game. Maybe that was that moment for me. But it didn’t happen. I took it very hard. I felt like I let down my country, myself and my teammates. At that moment, I didn’t even feel like leaving the field.” “I thought I put enough power on the ball”: David Miller Moreover, when David Miller was asked if he would have changed anything if he played that shot again, he said that it was all a matter of small differences and he could not get the right connection with the ball. Miller said, “No, maybe I would have made a little better contact in the shot. I was not expecting a full toss at all. I always have a full toss in my mind, but it surprised me a little and my contact went a little wrong. However, the wind was blowing slightly in the opposite direction, which made it a little difficult for the ball to fly. I felt I put enough power on the ball, but it could not cross the boundary line.”
“Everyone wants to be like Hardik but they can’t do it” – Mohit Sharma’s strong statement on Hardik Pandya
Mohit Sharma told that Hardik Pandya used to give his best on the field despite his back problem. Hardik Pandya (Image Credit- Twitter X) Veteran Indian pacer Mohit Sharma recently spoke about his experience of playing under Hardik Pandya’s captaincy with Gujarat Titans (GT) in the Indian Premier League. He suggested that the all-rounder is extremely expressive, a trait that many aspire to possess but fail to master. Sharma said that if someone wants to be humble, it does not mean that every person would want the same. He said that Hardik is often misunderstood because it is not easy to accept a strong personality. Speaking on the YouTube channel 2Sloggers, Sharma said: “The concept of being misunderstood is different for every person. If I choose to be humble, it doesn’t mean everyone would want to be humble. There are some people who express too much. In our community, we find it hard to accept when someone comes across like that.” “Let me give you a perfect example – if you live in a high-rise building and see someone enjoying the rain, we also feel like doing the same, but our hesitation stops us from doing so. So, everyone wants to be like Hardik, but they can’t be like him, which results in these things happening.” Hardik Pandya captained Gujarat before rejoining his former franchise Mumbai Indians (MI) ahead of IPL 2024 and he led GT to the title in its debut edition in 2022 and finished runners-up the following season. “He is a lovely guy and very easy going” Mohit Sharma about Hardik Pandya Speaking in the video, Mohit Sharma said that Hardik Pandya is a very easy-going person. He said that the best quality of the 30-year-old Pandya as a captain is to infuse positive energy in the team and motivate everyone. He also told that Hardik Pandya used to give his best on the field despite his back problem. “As a person, Hardik is a very nice guy. He is a lovely person and very easy-going. He makes the atmosphere very entertaining. No matter what the world thinks. As a leader, there is always scope for improvement. The biggest quality of Hardik is that he motivates his players because he himself likes to be motivated.” “When he does that, it is inspiring for the people around him. He somehow gets his back fixed, but he still has some cramps and back pain. It is easy for people to say that, but you have to be in that situation to understand. When you have a back injury you can’t even move, but in that condition, he fields and tries to bowl two overs.”

Australia batted first in the match and scored 304 runs for the loss of 7 wickets. In response, while chasing the target, host England lost two wickets for a score of 11. Then captain Harry Brook and Will Jacks brought the team back by making a strong partnership of 155 runs. Harry Brook played an unbeaten innings of 110 runs in 94 balls with the help of 13 fours and 2 sixes. Due to Captain Brook, England had scored 254 runs in 37.4 overs, then they had to score 61 runs in 74 balls to win. But then the match could not start due to rain and England won the match. After a brilliant innings in the third ODI against Australia, Harry Brook has given a big statement. You have to adopt a fearless attitude – Harry Brook Before the third ODI, Harry Brooke said, “Who cares if you get out on the boundary or anywhere in the field” This comment of Brook went viral and cricket pundits started questioning him. After the match, Harry Brook said that people took his comment in the wrong way. He just wanted to play fearlessly and did not want to think much about other things. According to BBC, Harry Brooke said after the third ODI, People took it a bit the wrong way. You have to go out there and play fearlessly and almost have an attitude of who cares. It’s not like who cares if we lose. We still want to win but you don’t want to go out there and play with the fear of getting out. We have seen so many times in Test environments how people are getting out. You have to have a fearless attitude and dominate the bowlers. Harry Brook has been facing criticism for his poor batting for some time now. He used to get a good start but was unable to make the innings big. Speaking further, Brook said, I think this summer I’ve been playing off and on, scoring a lot of 30s and 40s. I think I’m back in good shape again, playing the ball late and keeping my head steady.
“We are not wrongly giving him the status of ‘Prince’”- Why did Aakash Chopra give such a statement about Gill
Team India’s star batsman Shubman Gill is in great form these days. He recently scored a brilliant century in the second innings of the Test match played against Bangladesh at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Gill was greatly applauded after that innings. Meanwhile, now former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra has made a big statement on Shubman Gill. Aakash Chopra believes that Shubman Gill has proved the ‘Prince’ tag right. Former India cricketer Aakash Chopra defended Gill, citing the number of centuries he has scored in international cricket since the start of 2020, which is actually more than the centuries scored by players like Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. Aakash Chopra made a big statement in praise of Shubman Gill The former Indian cricketer further said, “Who has scored the most centuries for Team India this decade? This is very interesting. There was a tweet from CricCrazyJohns, and we said that we never realized this. He wrote about the most centuries for India in this decade in international cricket, “Shubman Gill has scored 12 centuries in 114 innings, it is absolutely phenomenal.” Chopra further added that the “Prince” nickname attached to Gill was not at all unfair, as he provided the exact stats of Rohit and Kohli in comparison to Gill. The former batsman further added that, “Rohit Sharma has played 148 innings in the same time frame and scored 10 centuries. Virat Kohli has played 149 innings and scored 10 centuries and both of them are our GOAT. So Shubman Gill is going way ahead with 12 centuries. We are not giving him the status of ‘Prince’ unfairly.” Chopra further said that according to him, Gill has come to Team India to set some big records because it seems like success has been added to his bloodstream. Chopra said, “It is in his DNA. I am saying that this guy is running towards greatness because he feels, in fact he is confident. If he tries to do something in his mind, greatness comes out. This is a very good story for Indian cricket.”
Basit Ali is also upset with the poor performance of the Pakistan team, gave a surprising statement comparing it with Team India
According to Basit Ali, a proper system is in place in India whereas in Pakistan the captain himself does not give the player a chance to progress. Basit Ali and Babar Azam. (Image Source: X) The performance of the Pakistan team has been very poor for some time now. The team has failed to show a good performance in international cricket. Let us tell you that recently Pakistan played a two-match Test series against Bangladesh. Bangladesh won this Test series 2-0. Former player Basit Ali has made a big statement about the performance of the Pakistan team. He has put forward his point of view by comparing Pakistan cricket with Team India. According to Basit Ali, a proper system is in place in India, whereas in Pakistan the captain himself does not give the player a chance to progress. Former player Basit Ali said, ‘Captains like Mohammad Azharuddin, Sourav Ganguly and then MS Dhoni came to India. They took the players forward. A proper system is in place in India. If we talk about Pakistan, here the captain himself does not let the player move forward. The captain is afraid that he might lose his place. There is a lot of difference between the cricket of India and Pakistan and this is the bitter truth.’ It is very important for the Pakistan team to perform well in the Champions Trophy 2025 Let us tell you that the Champions Trophy 2025 is to be played in Pakistan itself. The team’s performance has been very poor in all three formats. Many questions have been raised on Babar Azam’s captaincy while in Test cricket, Shan Masood has also failed to play the role of captain in the best way so far. Before the Champions Trophy 2025, Pakistan has to play a Test series against England. After this, the team will also be seen playing an ODI series against Australia. Pakistan will tour Zimbabwe in the month of November. The team’s schedule is quite long even before the Champions Trophy 2025. The matches of Champions Trophy 2025 will be hosted in Rawalpindi, Karachi and Lahore.

Former cricketer Basil Ali made a big statement saying- ‘Pitch has no value in Pakistan’
Bangladesh, which had defeated Pakistan in Test cricket, was defeated by India by 280 runs in the first Test. Basit Ali (Photo Source: X/Twitter) India defeated Bangladesh by a big margin of 280 runs in the first Test match played at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. However, before the start of the Test series against India, Bangladesh defeated Pakistan in a two-match home Test series. After this performance of Bangladesh, it was expected that they could give a tough fight to India in India, but this did not happen. India defeated Bangladesh in all three departments and won and took a 1-0 lead in the two-match Test series. India’s bowling performance was excellent. Bumrah’s pace and the spin duo of Ashwin and Jadeja did not take long to take 20 wickets. Bumrah took four wickets in Bangladesh’s first innings, due to which Bangladesh was bowled out for just 149 runs. Meanwhile, impressed by the Indian pitches, former Pakistan cricket team player Basit Ali has made a big statement. Basit says that pitches have no value in Pakistan. Basit Ali gave a big statement Let us tell you that after the end of the first Test match between India vs Bangladesh (IND vs BAN) in Chennai, Basit Ali said through his YouTube channel – In the match, Bumrah took 5, Ashwin took 6, Jadeja took 5, Siraj took 2 and Akash Deep took 2 wickets. This is the result of 20 wickets, the bowlers ticked all the boxes. Keeping in mind that the ball will spin, India played two spinners and it happened, so the credit goes to the pitch curator, who knows how to prepare a Test match pitch. Not like us, I am not going that way, but I am full of anger. Basit further said- The pitch has no value in our country. They are illiterate people, people who have played cricket with pride and these people are in PCB. This is why I get angry, what are you teaching your players?
‘God has made him different’ Akashdeep gave a big statement on learning bowling from Bumrah

Akashdeep gave a big statement Let us tell you that recently in an interview given to Times of India, Akashdeep said- I talk to him regularly and watch his bowling. He is completely different, God has made him different. I take a lot of cricket tips from him and have learned a lot. I discussed ‘mindset’ while bowling with him and once asked him about the mindset while bowling to a particular batsman. He gave very good suggestions and ideas, answered all my questions. He is very knowledgeable and experienced and it reflects in his bowling. His ability to understand the batsman before bowling is amazing. He is a talented bowler and it is not easy to follow in his footsteps. On the other hand, if we talk about Akashdeep and Jaspreet Bumrah, both of them were recently seen playing in the first test match played against Bangladesh in Chennai. So now both of them can be seen playing together in the test match to be held in Kanpur from 27 September.

IND vs BAN: “Bowling always comes first for me…”, Ashwin’s statement after scoring a century and taking 6 wickets in the Chennai Test
I mostly think like a bowler, but when I go out on the field with the bat in my hand, I have tried to think like a batsman – R Ashwin R Ashwin (Photo Source: Getty Images) Team India has taken a 1-0 lead in the series by winning the first Test match against Bangladesh by 280 runs. The hero of India’s victory was Ravichandran Ashwin who scored a century in the first innings and took 6 wickets in the second innings at his home ground Chennai.

I think like most bowlers: Ravichandran Ashwin After the victory in the first Test match against Bangladesh, Ravichandran Ashwin said, The innings on Day 1 was quite special, I didn’t realise it until Day 2. I am glad that I took a couple of wickets today as well. I make my living by bowling, so bowling always comes first. I think like a bowler most of the time, but when I go out on the field with the bat in my hand, I have tried to think like a batsman. Batting is something that comes naturally, but I still struggle with letting my thoughts get ahead of me sometimes. I have tried to manage it. Over the last few years, I have managed to separate the two, but it is a process. The last match of the two-match Test series between India and Bangladesh will be played in Kanpur from October 27.
