TOP INDIAN BATSMEN IN TEST CRICKET

Sunil Gavaskar Predicts RCB vs RR IPL Eliminator To Be One-sided, Says This Team "Will Walk All Over"

One team between Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers Bengaluru will get knocked out of the IPL 2024 on Wednesday. The two sides face off in the Eliminator in Ahmedabad. The winner will go on to face SunRisers Hyderabad in Qualifier 2 on Friday, while for the lose it will be the end of the road. If Rajasthan Royals are coming off four losses and a rained-off game, RCB have notched up six consecutive wins to sound a warning to their rivals that they mean business in the playoffs. RR, the 2008 IPL winners, suddenly find themselves as the underdogs, when a couple of weeks ago they were red-hot favourites.

When on song, Rajasthan Royals have shown they are unbeatable, but the last four games have exposed frailties in their batting and bowling. The exit of Jos Buttler has taken a lot of firepower out of their batting and a lot will depend on Yashasvi Jaiswal (348 runs), skipper Samson (504) and Riyan Parag (531) to halt the slide.

Former Indian cricket team batter Sunil Gavaskar said that it might be an one-sided contest.

"What RCB has done is nothing short of phenomenal. Firstly, to believe that they can bounce back. That requires something special. You have to say that their leading players Faf du Plessis, Virat KOhli, their senior players, they are the guys who are most encouraging the other players. Other team members can quickly get into a situation like , 'Oh we have lost everything'. Both of them have played extraordinary cricket," Sunil Gavaskar said on Star Sports.

"Rajasthan they have lost four-five matches. They have not played their last game as well. They have been out of practice. Unless they do something special that KKR did today, despite not playing for 11 days, it could well turn out be another one-sided game tomorrow. My fear is it will be another one sided game tomorrow, where the RCB will walk all over RR. I will be surprised if that does not happen."

IPL 2024: Sunil Gavaskar's Confidence in Ashish Nehra Steering Gujarat Titans to Top Four Again

India’s cricketing icon, Sunil Gavaskar, has expressed his unwavering belief in Ashish Nehra’s coaching prowess, anticipating another top-four finish for the Gujarat Titans in the upcoming IPL 2024 season.

The Gujarat Titans, under the mentorship of former Indian pacer Ashish Nehra, achieved the remarkable feat of clinching the IPL 2022 title in their inaugural season. Led by Hardik Pandya, the Titans displayed dominance throughout the tournament, earning plaudits for their exceptional performance.

Despite their loss in the final of IPL 2023 to the Chennai Super Kings, the Titans’ journey to the summit clash underscored their competitive spirit and potential for excellence. However, the team dynamics shifted with Pandya’s departure to the Mumbai Indians, prompting Shubman Gill’s appointment as the new captain.

Sunil Gavaskar, renowned for his cricketing acumen, remains optimistic about the Titans’ prospects under Nehra’s guidance. Speaking on Star Sports during an IPL discussion, Gavaskar emphasized Nehra’s adept coaching skills, which propelled the Titans to successive top-four finishes in previous seasons.

“Ashish Nehra will be the guiding force behind the team. With his expertise and mentorship, along with the leadership of Shubman Gill, I believe the Gujarat Titans can secure another top-four berth,” Gavaskar stated.

While acknowledging the challenge of filling Pandya’s void, Gavaskar expressed confidence in Gill’s leadership abilities and batting prowess. He lauded Gill’s impressive form in the previous IPL season and highlighted the impact of his batting consistency on team morale.

“Shubman Gill’s stellar performance last year speaks volumes about his potential. His success on the field not only boosts his own confidence but also inspires the team to strive for excellence,” remarked Gavaskar.

Gill’s recent century for the Indian Test squad against England further solidified his credentials as a reliable performer. As Gill aims to carry forward his momentum into IPL 2024, the Titans look poised for another compelling campaign under Nehra’s astute guidance.

In the competitive landscape of IPL cricket, the Gujarat Titans emerge as a formidable contender, driven by a blend of experienced coaching and youthful talent. As the anticipation builds for IPL 2024, cricket enthusiasts eagerly await the unfolding drama and spectacle that define India’s premier T20 league.

That’s Their Strength: Sunil Gavaskar Lauds CSK Opening Duo, Gaikwad And Conway

Chennai Super Kings: Former India captain Sunil Gavaskar has weighed in on the formidable batting prowess of the Chennai Super Kings (CSK), singling out the opening duo of Ruturaj Gaikwad and Devon Conway as potentially the best in the tournament.Gavaskar's observations come on the heels of a scintillating performance by Gaikwad and Conway in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023, where they emerged as the top two run-scorers for the Chennai-based franchise. With Gaikwad's aggressive right-handed strokes complementing Conway's stylish left-handed finesse, the pair set the stage ablaze, consistently providing CSK with explosive starts. While the New Zealand southpaw amassed 672 runs at a strike rate of 139.70 in 16 matches, the Indian right-handed batter smashed 590 runs at a strike rate of 147.50 in as many games. Reflecting on CSK's batting might, Gavaskar said to Star Sports, "That's been their advantage over the years. All these years, they have always had batters at the top who can take the attack to the opposition from the first ball itself, and then they have got the finishers as well." "I feel their left and right-handed opening combination of Ruturaj Gaikwad and Devon Conway is probably the best opening pair in the IPL because they always gave good starts last year. So the pressure was slightly eased on the players who used to come at No. 4 and No. 5," the former India captain added. Gaikwad and Conway's dynamic partnership proved to be the cornerstone of CSK's success in IPL 2023, with several memorable stands that propelled the team to victory. Notably, their remarkable 141-run partnership against the Delhi Capitals underscored their ability to dominate even the most formidable bowling attacks. In addition to their explosive opening pair, Gavaskar highlighted CSK's batting depth as a key asset in run chases. "For chasing, you need to have a lineup where someone can come at No. 7 as well and hit big sixes," he emphasised. The defending champion boasts a wealth of firepower in their middle order, with the likes of M.S Dhoni, Shivam Dube, Ravindra Jadeja, and Ajinkya Rahane capable of turning the tide of any match with their aggressive stroke play. With Dhoni's unparalleled finishing prowess, Dube's explosive hitting, and Jadeja's ability to deliver under pressure, CSK possesses a well-rounded batting lineup that strikes fear into the hearts of their opponents. Dhoni and Dube had strike rates of 182.45 and 158.33, respectively, in IPL 2023. While Ravindra Jadeja scored his runs at a strike rate of 142.85, the usually circumspect Ajinkya Rahane too had a strike rate of 172.48. "You always think about scoring runs in T20 cricket, but chasing is also important. For chasing, you need to have a lineup where someone can come at No. 7 as well and hit big sixes. You have got an MS Dhoni and now they have got somebody like Shivam Dube batting at No. 3 or No. 4. He is a long hitter, and then Jadeja, look at the way he finished the finals. Deepak Chahar can also play the big shots. So clearly their batting is the least of their worries," Gavaskar stated. Read the full article

The Indian cricket team is going through various permutations and combinations. After the ODI Cricket World Cup, where the Indian cricket team finished runners-up, the focus now is on the 2024 T20 Cricket World Cup. If the T20I side that has been selected for the South Africa Tour is anything to go by, then the BCCI selectors are not averse to giving the young guns a go-ahead of the shortest format marquee event. The likes of Tilak Varma, Arshdeep Singh, Ruturaj Gaikwad will be closely watched in the next six months. India have five T20Is and the IPL to decide their final combination for the T20 World Cup.Rinku Singh is a crucial cog in the Indian cricket team's T20 scheme of things. Former Indian cricket team captain Sunil Gavaskar had some interesting things to say on Rinku Singh."Talent - it's not given to everybody. You can love the game. You can play all day, but sometimes you know you might not quite have the talent, but he has the belief that he could do it, and that's what he's done over the last 2-3 years. Again here in the IPL, he was in and out of a lot of teams when he finally got the opportunity and the way he grabbed it (was amazing)," Sunil Gavaskar was quoted as saying to Star Sports by India Today."And now he's part of an India team. And now there's so much, so many high expectations of them. They are now expecting him to be another Yuvraj Singh. Rinku Singh - Yuvraj Singh. So if you can do even a fraction of what Yuvraj did for Indian cricket, then he will have done wonderfully well," Gavaskar said.Giving his assessment about the South African wickets after India's first practice session, Rinku, who played a vital role in India clinching the five-match T20I series series against Australia recently said, "When I battered here today, there was extra bounce here compared to Indian wickets."The pace is a bit more, so will practice against pace bowling." India will play the first of their three T20Is against the Proteas here on Sunday and Rinku is expected to bat at the crucial No. 5 or No. 6 position.He said that head coach Rahul Dravid had also asked him to just play his natural game and bat at No.5 or No.6."The first practice session, I enjoyed it a lot because of the fine weather. Getting the opportunity to work with Rahul Dravid sir, so that was a good feeling. He told me to continue playing the way I do and continue believing in myself," Rinku told BCCI.tv."(He told me) to keep playing at No. 5 or 6. It is tough to play in that position, but keep pushing yourself and believe in yourself."The hard-hitter from Uttar Pradesh added that batting in the two crucial positions since 2013 had given him the confidence to play a similar role for India."I have been playing for UP since 2013 at No. 5 or 6. So, I have got used to that position. I keep backing myself to play in that position because it is very tough to play in that position if 4-5 wickets are down," Rinku said.Topics mentioned in this article

world cup defeat lessons

They always teach us a lesson.. But we never learn... At the exact time we always forget our skills... Yuvraj Singh was trained in Australia.. So had that conviction to win matches and give the fullest... Each time they defeat us in itself they give a message in which area we are weak at... But we go and do the same... Yes we have the best crowd, best support system, crores of motivators but we are the most demotivated ones... Yes we have improved through time but we are always ready with excuses for our under performance... Pat Cummins said he would like to take the credit of silencing a huge crowd and he did that... When will we rise above our weaknesses and stand tall in own eye rather than other 's eye.??. Yes we are always there to cheer support and put our hearts out when comes to pouring love... And with that we need introspection... Self analysis and conviction...

Lord Relator's tribute to Indian Cricket Team

Dhoni’s Incredible Gesture of Signing Gavaskar’s Shirt Upon the Legend’s Request Wins Hearts on the Internet

Many believe that Dhoni is playing his final season of IPL in domestic cricket. Cricket fans generously greeted him at Chepauk, where CSK faced off against KKR. As the crowd went into a frenzy, Sunil Gavaskar, the batting legend of India ran up to Dhoni and asked him for a special autograph. Dhoni in an incredible gesture, signed the shirt of Gavaskar after the match. And this suddenly caught up the internet, and went viral as Thala, as Dhoni’s nickname goes, became the talk of the day.

After Dhoni and other teammates from CSK marshaled on the field one last time in IPL’s 16th edition at Chepauk, Sunil Gavaskar resounded the feelings of the audience by saying that players like Dhoni happen once in a century and not in every generation. The former skipper of India had an emotional time during the final home game, where CSK battled KKR at the MA Chidambaram Stadium. Dhoni expressed his gratitude by hitting some balls toward the audience with a racquet.

This was in tribute to the home fans at Chepauk. He even shook hands with policemen there and tossed jerseys. He was the apple of the eye of the crowd before the IPL and after the final home game of CSK as well in 2023. In honor of Chepauk, the CSK team performed a special lap even after KKR defeated the four-time winner CSK at the venue. It was KKR’s first win after a decade over CSK at the Chepauk. In 20 overs, CSK scored 144-6 as they batted first.

Dhoni scored 2 runs in 3 balls and remained unbeaten with Shivam Dube (48) in their final game at home in IPL 2023 season. KKR’s Rinku Singh scored 54 and Rana 57, which granted them a win over CSK. Rinku was awarded the Player of the Match because of his great performance with the bat. The two-time winner KKR had a six-wicket win against CSK and made a place for their team in the seventh spot at the points table of IPL 2023.

CSK on the other hand is in the second spot in the IPL 2023 points tablet and the team is expected to have healthy competition ahead, and probably finish off as the first in the IPL standings. This IPL season, Dhoni-led CSK has till now achieved 7 wins in 13 matches.
