Ruckus over the pitch before IND vs PAK match, what scary thing did the top 5 experts say about the USA pitch
The hosting of the T20 World Cup has been handed over to West Indies and America. But after the Sri Lanka and South Africa match played on June 3, this pitch is being criticized everywhere. Former Indian all-rounder Irfan Pathan has also strongly criticized the pitch of Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York. The drop-in pitch of the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium proved to be a nightmare for the Sri Lankan batsmen who struggled on the slow outfield. Four Sri Lankan players could not even open their account. Three players could not reach double figures. 7 matches are yet to be played on this pitch and the India-Pakistan match is also to be played on this drop-in pitch on 9 June. In such a situation, let’s know what 5 top experts said about the USA pitch- Former Team India all-rounder Irfan Pathan shared a post on the social media platform X. In this post, he has strongly criticized the pitch of this new stadium in New York. Irfan wrote in his post on X that, “This is by no means an ideal pitch for the T20 format.” “Overall I am not able to understand, is this a suitable pitch for the T20 format? I don’t think so. As far as I am concerned, it is not good enough for a T20 game. Yes, it should be a balanced wicket between bat and ball, but this pitch is heavily in favor of the bowlers. Playing on this pitch is not going to be easy at all for the batsmen.” 3. Manoj Tiwari “This is unacceptable because if a batsman hits a shot, the ball does not go fast on the field, and this is because the amount of sand used is more. It will be difficult for teams to score runs. Hitting sixes continuously is not possible on this pitch. You will have to play some shots along the ground. You will only be able to take singles instead of doubles. Such a pitch is unacceptable from the ICC because when the World Cup is going on and you have time to prepare for it, you should have also made a proper outfield.” 4. Farveez Maharoof “I heard someone in the commentary say that the best way to use the pitch is to play the 10-over circuit. Give them a chance in the first 10 overs when the ball is doing something while saving wickets for the second half. But, overall I don’t think it is a suitable wicket for T20 cricket and as far as I am concerned, it is not even good enough for a T20 match. It is not going to be easy at all for the batsmen, they will have to take 20 balls to understand the pace and the pitch.” 5. Faf du Plessis “Wow this wicket is spicy.”

IPL 2024 Playoffs Qualification Scenario: Even after the defeat, RR in top 2, now there is a fight between the teams for the remaining two places.
IPL 2024, know the qualification scenario of all the teams after Match-65 here. RR vs PBKS (Photo Source: BCCI/IPL) IPL 2024 Playoffs Qualification Scenario: The 65th match of IPL 2024 was played today between Rajasthan Royals and Punjab Kings at Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati. In this match, Punjab team defeated Rajasthan by five wickets. However, there is not much change in the points table and qualification scenario due to the result of this match. RR team had already qualified for the playoffs while Punjab Kings were already out of the tournament. The mathematics of the playoffs is such that, KKR and Rajasthan, currently a total of 2 teams can qualify for the playoffs. A total of 5 teams are in line for these two spots. Those five teams are Chennai Super Kings, Sunrisers Hyderabad, Delhi Capitals, Royal Challengers Bangalore and Lucknow Super Giants. IPL 2024 playoff is something like this Qualification Scenario However, now the chances of Delhi and Lucknow reaching the playoffs are very slim, because Delhi has played all its league matches, while Lucknow has only 1 match left against Mumbai Indians, if it does not win this match by a big margin. If it wins the match, it will be able to reach only 14 points. The bad thing for Delhi and Lucknow is that the net run rate is currently in negative. So Chennai and Hyderabad have the highest chances of reaching the playoffs of the ongoing season. Hyderabad is currently at fourth position in the points table with 14 points, and they have two matches left. If it wins either of the two, it will easily qualify for the playoffs with 16 points. The situation in Chennai is also similar. With 14 points in 13 matches, CSK is currently at third place in the points table. If they win the match against RCB on May 18, they will qualify for the playoffs with 16 points. So, RCB’s hopes of reaching the playoffs rest on the fact that Hyderabad not only loses its next two matches, but also wins its last league match against CSK. Apart from this, he will have to pray that Hyderabad loses one of its remaining two matches by a big margin, only then his net run rate will be better than Hyderabad. Only after this can she qualify for the playoffs with 14 points.
