193 Runs In 43 Balls T10 new record

Posted on December 8, 2023

On Tuesday, Hamza Saleem Dar established a raging new record in the history of cricket when he hit 193 runs off 43 balls. In the European Cricket T10 match between Catalunya Jaguar and Sohal Hospitaltet, when the former won by 153 runs, this extraordinary knock was played. With 22 sixes and 14 boundaries, Hamza’s undefeated 193 is now the best individual total in T10 cricket ever, breaking the previous mark of 163 runs.

Catalunya Jaguar chose to bat first and in just 10 overs amassed a total of 257/0. Hamza amassed an incredible 193* for the Jaguars off of just 43 balls. Yasir Ali got 58* off just 19 balls, apart from him.

Subsequently, in 10 overs, the Jaguars held Sohal Hospitaltet to 104/8. Raja Shahzad, who scored 25 runs off of 10 balls, was the Hospitaltet’s top scorer. Aamir Siddique scored 16 off 9 balls, and Qamar Shahzad scored 22 off 13 balls in addition to him.

Hamza was brilliant for the Jaguars again, but this time he was picking up wickets with the ball, taking three in all. Other than him, MD Umar Waqas, Ameer Hamzah, Farrukh Sohail, and Faisal Sarfaraz also claimed one wicket apiece.

The Jaguars carried on their winning streak by defeating Bengali CC in their previous ECS Spain T10 game on Thursday.

On the other hand, Sohal Hospitaltet’s next game is scheduled for Friday against Bengali CC.

Gujarat Titans Might Lose Mohammed Shami

Posted on December 7, 2023

Everyone’s attention was drawn to Hardik Pandya’s high-profile move from his old organization, the Mumbai Indians, to the Gujarat Titans, the reigning IPL champions. Gujarat Titans won the 2022 Indian Premier League under Hardik Pandya and finished second in 2023. The biggest news following the revelation of the list of players who had been retained by the 10 IPL clubs was a surprise switch to the Mumbai Indians, where Hardik Pandya first gained recognition.

It has recently been revealed that Mohammed Shami, another star, would soon leave the Gujarat Titans, along with Hardik Pandya. Gujarat Titans Chief Operating Officer Colonel Arvinder Singh said in a News18 interview that a team had also been in touch with their top wicket-taker, Mohammed Shami.

Colonel Arvinder Singh stated in the video: “It is the power of every franchise to pursue elite players. The incorrect thing to do is to approach a player directly from an IPL franchise. The GT team management is unhappy with the strategy and believes that its execution is incorrect. The BCCI’s policy on player trade odds and how to notify them of your interest by expressing it to them will be communicated to us. Next, it’s a franchise decision. It is incorrect that this IPL squad sought our coaching staff. They had the option to speak with us in advance if they desired the transfer. Later on, we learned about the strategy.”

Earlier, Pandya’s role in the team’s accomplishments over the previous two seasons was recognized by GT Team Director Vikram Solanki.

“As the first captain of Gujarat Titans, Hardik Pandya has helped the franchise deliver two fantastic seasons that resulted in winning one IPL championship and one appearance in the final,” Solanki was reported to have said in a statement.

He now says he wants to play for his old team, the Mumbai Indians. The former England batter went on, “We accept his choice and wish him all the very best in his future undertakings.

Having collaborated closely with Gill, Solanki acknowledged his maturity.

“Over the past two years, Shubman Gill has demonstrated growth in stature and status at the highest level of the game. In cricket, we’ve watched him develop as a leader as well as a hitter,” Solanki said.

“His maturity and skill is evident in his on-field performance and we are extremely excited to embark on a new journey with a young leader like Shubman at the helm,” the head of the GT head stated.

With the certainty of Hardik Pandya Pandya’s departure, 24-year-old opener Shubman Gill emerged as the captain of choice. He had earned the coveted ‘orange cap’ in the previous season with 890 runs, which was only surpassed by Virat Kohli’s 973 career total. “I thank the Gujarat Titans for putting their trust in me to lead such a great squad. I am thrilled and happy to take over as captain. We’ve enjoyed two fantastic seasons, and I’m excited to lead the squad in our thrilling style of cricket,” a statement from Gill said.

Pandya, for his part, vented his feelings on ‘X,’ the former Twitter.

“It reminds me of so many amazing times. Paltan, Wankhede, Mumbai. It feels fantastic to be back,” Pandya said about “X” in a video that showed the Mumbai Indians his whole journey.

Shami had a great World Cup and losing him at this position will be a heavy blow to the GT management. He can turn the game at any point and will be the player to watch out in the tournament.

Gautam Gambhir And Sreesanth Involved In Fight In LLC

Posted on December 7, 2023

On December 6, a fight broke out between former Indian cricket players Gautam Gambhir and S Sreesanth during the Legends League Cricket Eliminator. The incident was a heated verbal exchange between the two that happened during the India Capitals vs Gujarat Giants game.

Gambhir scored aggressively against Sreesanth in the second over, smashing a four and a six. But later, at the non-striker end, a dot ball caused a rift between the two. Given that both players had a reputation for being fierce competitors, this encounter was crucial to the outcome of the game.

Later, Sreesanth posted a video on social media expressing his displeasure. He called Gambhir “Mr. Fighter,” a reference to the aggressive way that Gambhir plays cricket.

“Viru bhai and other veteran players are treated with no respect by him at all. That’s precisely what took place today. Sreesanth stated in the video, “He just kept calling me names without any provocation, which was very rude and shouldn’t have been said by Mr. Gautam Gambhir.”

Additionally, Sreesanth hinted that Gambhir’s comments might be connected to the 2013 IPL spot-fixing controversy, which was a difficult time in his career. He stressed that his state and family had suffered immensely during that time, and he now felt that they were being singled out again without cause. Sreeshanth stated that Gambhir told him to “f*ck off, you fixer!”

“With all of your help, I fought that battle. People now wish to undermine me without cause. He made inappropriate comments. “I will undoubtedly inform the audience of his remarks,” he continued.

“If you don’t respect your colleagues, what good is it to represent people? He never mentions Virat, even when questioned about him during broadcasts. He talks about something else. The former cricket player for India stated, “I don’t want to go into more detail.

I just wanted to express how hurt I am, as well as how hurt my family and loved ones are. And his manner of speaking… I have not spoken negatively or abusively once. He simply continued speaking like he always does, Sreesanth said.

Maxwell shares views on Warner and Johnson controversy

Posted on December 6, 2023

Ahead of the Test series against Pakistan, Australian all-rounder Glenn Maxwell has commented on the simmering rivalry between veteran opener David Warner and former Australian bowler Mitchell Johnson. The buzz of the town leading up to the Australian opener’s final Test series at home is Johnson’s criticism of Warner. Australia will continue its title defence in the ICC World Test Championship after winning the sixth and most historic World Cup in India.

Australia’s first away assignment after winning the One Day International (ODI) World Cup is to host Pakistan. Johnson, a former cricket player, attacked Warner savagely as the latter attempted to bid Warner farewell in the Pakistan Test series. Warner was previously included in Australia’s 14-man team for the opening Test matchup with Pakistan. Johnson questioned Warner’s desire to leave, and in his shocking remarks, the former cricket player also brought up the infamous ball-tampering issue.

Johnson said, “It’s been five years and David Warner has still never really owned the ball-tampering scandal,” in his Sunday column in The West Australian. All-rounder Maxwell defended Warner in the wake of the former Australian cricket player’s biting comments, calling his colleague a “absolute champion” of the Australian team. The World Cup 2023 victor expressed his agreement with the selectors’ choice of Warner in an interview with Australian radio station SEN. He also expressed excitement for his colleague to hit runs against Pakistan.

“I won’t put my name in any press releases on this. However, Davey has long been the undisputed champion of Australian cricket, and the selectors’ opinions were made quite apparent when they chose him. Davey should score a lot of runs this summer, and I’m excited to watch him in that opening Test,” Maxwell stated.

Usman Khawaja, the opener, too made the decision to come out in Warner’s defence earlier. Warner and former Australian captain Steve Smith, according to Khawaja, are idols. “I completely believe that Dave Warner or anyone else engaged in the sandpaper (gate) is not a hero since they have made their amends. “One year away from cricket is a long time,” he continued.

India’s Tour Of South Africa: Everything You Need To Know

Posted on December 5, 2023

Although the shocking defeat of India in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 final may have disappointed Indian fans, the cricket action didn’t stop for long. Australia and a youthful Men in Blue team, captained by Suryakumar Yadav, played a five-match Twenty20 International series at home and won. The caravan will proceed to South Africa for a comprehensive tour that will feature duels in each of the three forms shortly after.

There will be two Test matches, three ODIs, and three T20Is during India’s 2023–24 trip to South Africa. Test cricket will take center stage after the T20Is and ODIs, which are scheduled for December 10–21. The first Test match will take place at Centurion’s SuperSport Park on December 26. The second five-day match will take place at Cape Town’s Newlands Cricket Ground on January 3.

South Africa is still India’s last frontier in red-ball cricket. It is the only nation that plays professional cricket and where India has not yet won a Test series. Under MS Dhoni’s guidance, the visitors came very close in 2010–11 but were unable to complete the race as the third and decisive Test finished in a draw. This time, the top-ranked Test team in the world will aim to right the wrongs and make history.

This will be Rahul Dravid’s first Test series assignment when his contract is renewed as the head coach of India, it has been revealed. He and captain Rohit Sharma will be the center of attention when it comes to their tactics in this difficult tournament. Senior professionals Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma have requested to be rested for the T20I and ODI series between India and South Africa, but they will both return for the two Test matches.

India squad: Rohit Sharma (C), Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Ishan Kishan (wk), KL Rahul (wk), Ravichandran Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, Shardul Thakur, Mohammed Siraj, Mukesh Kumar, Mohammed Shami, Jasprit Bumrah (VC), Prasidh Krishna.

India has played 42 Test matches against South Africa so far, winning 15 of them. Ten of the games resulted in draws, with the Proteas emerging victorious 17 times. India has won three of the last five meetings between the two teams, while South Africa has won two of them.

South Africa will host the IND vs RSA Test series from December 26, 2023, to January 7, 2023. This is the entire schedule, with all times in IST:
First Test: at 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday, December 26 at SuperSport Park in Centurion.
Second Test: at 1:30 p.m. on Wednesday, January 3 at Newlands, Cape Town.

In India, the Star Sports Network will air the Test series.

The Disney+Hotstar app and website will stream the matches live.

Mitchell Johnson Revealed Reason Behind David Warner Attack

Posted on December 5, 2023

Former Australian bowler Mitchell Johnson has disclosed the motivation behind his outburst, which he directed against his former teammate and current Australia opener David Warner, two days ago. “Hero’s sendoff”? Warner doesn’t deserve one, according to Johnson, who took aim at the Australian opener and rekindled the ball-tampering scandal. The Pakistan series is Warner’s final one. The 42-year-old had also criticised Australia’s head selector Geroge Bailey for sticking with Warner despite his recent bad performances.

Johnson disclosed that he received a text message from Warner earlier this year following his essay in which he supported the spouse of the southpaw.

Johnson acknowledged that the ball-tampering incident and Warner’s “quite personal” text message were the driving forces behind his West Australian essay, even if he did not go into great detail about them.

Dave sent me a note that was very private. I made an attempt to call him and try to talk to him about it; I’ve always been willing to listen. When I finished playing, I knew that I was honest with the guys. In an interview with The Mitchell Johnson Cricket Show, the former Australia bowler remarked, “Just come and speak to me if I’m in the media and writing things or saying things that you don’t like.”

“Until now, it was never a personal matter. I think that the text part was the reason I wrote the piece, it was also motivated by his text. It undoubtedly played a role. I won’t say some of the things that were expressed in that. If Dave wants to talk about it, I believe he should say it. He stated, “There were some really disappointing things in there, and to be honest, it was pretty bad.”

Johnson took Bailey’s response to his essay about Warner as a jab at Warner’s mental state, and for that reason, he was equally incensed.

“It’s pretty much downplaying my article and placing it on mental health to question if I’m okay because I’ve had mental health issues, which is rather horrible, I believe. It’s essentially making fun of someone else’s mental state of mind by implying that I must be dealing with something because my comments were prompted by a mental health problem. That isn’t accurate. That is the exact opposite. I have a clear head,” he joked.

Bailey had stated, “I’ve been sent little snippets of it – I hope he’s OK,” in response to Johnson’s writing about Warner.

Usman Khawaja another Australian cricketer came up in support of David and defended the opener by calling him a hero. The Australian cricket members are undergoing great turmoil and it’s very disappointing for cricket fans to see such kinds of stuff. Despite all, it is also very necessary to hear both ends and maintain respect and fair play in the gentleman’s game.

India won the series against Australia 4-1

Posted on December 4, 2023

In Bengaluru, India (160/8) defeated Australia (154/8) by 6 runs to win the series 4-1.

Arshdeep Singh, a pacer, conceded just three runs in the last over to help India defeat Australia in the fifth Twenty20 international in a thrilling match. In addition to taking three significant wickets, Ravi Bishnoi also showed the power of his spin. India defeated Australia 4-1 in the five-match series.

The last Twenty20 International (T20I) match of the five-match series between Australia and Suryakumar Yadav’s India began at 7 p.m. Sunday at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.

After winning the toss, Australian captain Matthew Wade decided to bowl first. Yashasvi Jaiswal and Ruturaj Gaikwad of Team India walked to the crease to begin their innings, while Aaron Hardie and Jason Behrendorff of Australia were spearheading their country’s pace assault.

Team India vice skipper Shreyas Iyer struck a stunning half-century to move his side closer to a manageable score of 160/8. Only Shreyas Iyer and Axar Patel were able to contribute runs to the score as India failed to score against the accurate bowling of Australia.

Due to the rapid wicket-taking by Australian pacers, who had dismissed Suryakumar Yadav, Ruturaj Gaikwad, and Yashasvi Jaiswal, Team India was in a precarious situation. While at the crease, Rinku Singh and Shreyas Iyer were able trying to steady the Indian innings.

Australia led by Travis Head and Josh Phillippe started the 161-run chase. With 14 runs off of Arshdeep Singh’s opening over, the opening pair got off to an explosive start. Josh Phillippe was quickly removed by Mukesh Kumar, ending the opening pairing. Ravi Bishnoi and Mukesh Kumar were the most important bowlers from the team.

The fourth Twenty20 match saw the Men in Blue secure the series, but Surya, who is captaining the Indian team for the first time in international cricket, might find the series even more memorable when they won it by 4-1.

Speaking of Surya, all eyes will be on the Indian captain as he builds his strong series beginnings and records a great series win to bolster his confidence before the forthcoming T20 series in South Africa. Even though the Indian batting lineup has been outstanding, certain players, like Jitesh Sharma, will be trying to hold onto their spot in the starting lineup, while others, like Axar Patel, will be hoping to get back to their previous level of batting performance.

The Australians, captained by Matthew Wade, will be hoping to get some rest after completing a lengthy tour of India with a T20 series following the World Cup.

Bangladesh Beat New Zealand By 150 Runs

Posted on December 2, 2023

In the first session of the last day, Taijul finished New Zealand’s innings for 181 after he had finished the first innings with 4-109 and 6-75.

Taijul Islam, a left-arm spinner, claimed his second 10-wicket haul in test cricket on Saturday as Bangladesh defeated New Zealand by 150 runs in the first-round series opener.

In the first session of the last day, Taijul wrapped up New Zealand’s innings for 181 runs after scoring 4-109 and scoring 6-75 in the second innings. The tourists were chasing a goal of 332 runs.

He was supported by offspinner Nayeem Hasan, who finished with 2-40, and pacers Shoriful Islam (1-13) and Mehidy Hasan (1-44), each of whom claimed a wicket.

Daryl Mitchell struggled to lead the visitors with a patient fifty-eight off one hundred and sixty balls.

After the game, with New Zealand behind 113-7, Mitchell’s contribution offered them a remote chance of winning. He hit Taijul for a boundary with the opening delivery of the day and then hit him for a single over the cover to reach his eighth half-century off 99 balls.

Mitchell, in contrast to many of his countrymen, appeared assured against the host’s spinners. However, a badly timed sweep shot against offspinner Nayeem Hasan ultimately resulted in Mitchell’s dismissal, thereby ending New Zealand’s hopes of rescuing the match.

Tim Southee, the captain, amassed an aggressive 34 from 24 balls, including one four and two sixes, before Taijul got rid of him to finish with a 12-for.

After that, Taijul won the match after Ish Sodhi, who put in a lot of effort to make 22 off 91, gave Zakir Hasan an easy catch at silly mid-off.

With opener Mahmudul Hasan scoring 86 and Bangladesh being bowled out for 310 in their opening innings, New Zealand amassed 317, thanks to a masterful 104 from Kane Williamson, to take a seven-run lead.

As the hosts amassed 338 in the second innings and set a difficult 332-run mark for the Black Caps on a surface that was rapidly losing its quality, Najmul Hossain Shanto became the first player from Bangladesh to score a century on his debut as captain.

Later on day four and the final morning, Taijul skillfully navigated the tourists’ batting lineup, leading Bangladesh to its first-ever home triumph against New Zealand and only its second-ever victory overall.

On December 6 at Mirpur, the second and last test of the series will get underway.

India Clinches Series Victory With Thrilling 20-Run Win Over Australia

Posted on December 2, 2023December 2, 2023

India won the five-match series after defeating Australia by 20 runs, and the Men in Blue currently lead the series 3-1. India gained some vital wickets from Axar Patel, and Rinku Singh hit some huge strokes to seal the victory in the seris.

Today, Axar Patel is working his magic as he got rid of Ben McDermott, Aaron Hardie, and Travis Head, three dangerous players, to ruin Australian batting. In addition to bowling exceptionally well, Ravi Bishnoi is also having near calls with wickets.

Australia’s opener Josh Philippe was bowled by India spinner Ravi Bishnoi with his first ball, setting up an intriguing duel as opener Travis Head appears to be in explosive form.

After 20 overs, Rinku Singh and Jitesh Sharma led the struggling Indian team to a manageable score of 174/9. Australia restricted Indian hitters, who could not finish successfully, by taking several vital wickets in the last overs.

Ruturaj Gaikwad, Suryakumar Yadav, and Shreyas Iyer all headed back to the pavilion as India lost wickets quickly. In order to keep the audience entertained, Rinku Singh is playing effectively at the crease and hitting some spectacular strokes. The new batter in the crease is Jitesh Sharma.

India’s first breakthrough came from Australian pacer Aaron Hardie, who removed inexperienced opener Yashasvi Jaiswal. Shreyas Iyer, vice captain of India, has moved to the crease to accompany Ruturaj Gaikwad.

With the new ball, pacers Aaron Hardie and Jason Behrendorff launched the assault, while Indian openers Yashasvi Jaiswal and Ruturaj Gaikwad opened the innings for the country. The goal of the openers will be to give their side a strong start.

At Raipur, Chhattisgarh’s Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Cricket Stadium, the India vs Australia match was scheduled for December 1. The fourth game of their five-game T20 series was this one. India defeated Australia, the world champions, in yesterday’s game to complete the five-match series.

India and Australia have faced off in 29 Twenty20 matches in the past. India has won 17, Australia has won 11, and there was no outcome in one match. India has dominated their last five Twenty20 matches, winning four to Australia’s one. India has a fantastic overall record against Australia, and the Men in Blue have performed remarkably well in the opening leg of the series.

The Raipur stadium is well-known for both domestic and IPL matches. It is a relatively new location for international cricket. It appears that bowlers are better off on this ground than batsmen. Only once, in the 29 T20 matches played here, has a team amassed 200 runs. In the last three games, India’s batting lineup has shown off some incredible skills, and they should play with the same fervor tomorrow.

This stadium hosted an ODI between India and New Zealand back in January 2023. After 108, New Zealand was eliminated. With an easy victory margin of eight wickets, Mohammed Shami was declared Player of the Match for his outstanding 3/18.

Uganda will debut in T20 World Cup 2024

Posted on December 1, 2023

Uganda, an African side, has accomplished the amazing accomplishment of qualifying for the T20 World Cup, which will be held in the United States and the West Indies in June of 2024. Uganda has surpassed Zimbabwe to become the twentieth and last team to qualify for the tournament.

Uganda’s campaign in the Africa Region Qualifier for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2023 was an incredible story full of surprising victories and moments of unflinching commitment.

Set in Windhoek, Namibia, Uganda was rated 23rd in the T20I rankings, took on strong opposition. In spite of the intense rivalry, one specific occasion stood out as the high point of their expedition: a stunning triumph over Zimbabwe, the eleventh-ranked Test-playing country. Uganda accomplished a stunning upset on that fateful day, November 26, 2023, defeating Zimbabwe by a margin of five wickets. This victory was more than simply another victory for Uganda; it was their first-ever T20I victory over a team with all of its members.

Uganda won handily because their on-field strategy was expertly carried out. After winning the toss, they made the sensible option to field, which paid off as they held Zimbabwe to a meagre 136/7 in the 20 overs that they were given. Uganda’s star bowler, Dinesh Nakrani, stood out for his outstanding performance, finishing with numbers of 3/14.

In reply, Riazat Ali Shah led Uganda’s chase expertly and scored a vital 42 runs, which was a critical contribution. With 40 runs, Alpesh Ramjani also contributed significantly. They served as the team’s fulcrum in their quest for success. Uganda achieved a historic victory in just 19.1 overs by bowling with tenacity and accuracy, moving them up to third place in the points standings.

Uganda gained a lot of momentum from the win, which helped them advance on their quest. On November 29, 2023, they defeated Kenya by a commanding 33-run score, extending their winning streak. With an amazing opening performance of 60 runs off 50 balls, Simon Ssesazi set a strong platform for Uganda’s innings. Furthermore, Dinesh Nakrani’s blazing 40 off 23 balls in the final over guaranteed Kenya a difficult goal of 163. Kenya’s batting order was destroyed by Bilal Hasan’s outstanding bowling performance, which produced four wickets for 39 runs and forced them to be all out for 129.

Rwanda stood in Uganda’s way of qualifying for the T20 World Cup. They would guarantee their spot in the tournament with a win in this game. In their last encounter, Uganda proved to be formidable, knocking Rwanda out for a meagre 65 runs. With nine wickets remaining, they pursued the objective, demonstrating their tenacity and will. Uganda consequently qualified for the World Cup, coming in second place after Namibia, the winners of the African qualifiers.

Observing new teams battle their way through international cups is always fascinating. Fans of cricket will be hoping for Uganda to surprise everyone.
