‘15-20 ball khel le’: How Rohit Sharma’s advice helped Tilak Varma return to form with 101 off 45 balls against Gujarat Titans | Cricket News

Published by Webster

T20 is increasingly becoming a format where strike rates for batsmen at the top matter a lot more than before. Under such circumstances, Tilak Varma is an anomaly — he is an innings builder and not someone who dominates from ball one. He reads the situation and then turns it around in a short time. That shift — from control to acceleration — is a clear pattern in how he bats in the shortest format. The latest example was during MI’s previous match against the Gujarat Titans. The southpaw, who walked out after the sixth over with MI tottering at 44/3, did not break stride in the first half of his innings, focussing more on strike rotation to be on 19 runs in 22 balls. Then came the moment that turned the narrative. Naman Dhir, who looked good to get a bigger score, fell in the 13th over for 45 in 32 balls. His dismissal forced a change in tempo to Tilak’s innings. From 19 off 22 balls, he surged to 82 runs in his …

Yashasvi Jaiswal, on his Test match debut, made 171 runs against the West Indies. Recalling his interactions with Rohit Sharma before the game, Jaiswal revealed during practice sessions how he tried to hit Indian spinner Ravindra Jadeja out of the attack, and Rohit intervened by saying to play with ease. “I remember Jaddu bhai was bowling and I stepped out and hit a six outside the stadium. Rohit bhai told me, ‘Jaisu khel neeche se, aaramse khel. Aise marega kya?’ (Jaiswal play with ease and on the ground. Will you hit like this?) Then I started playing normally. My mindset was to try to dominate and take chances according to the field set. If I can convert, I will try, and this is the chat we had. I tried to play my positive shots, and it was successful. I have the same mindset when I play for Mumbai as well,” he said on sports journalist Vimal Kumar’s YouTube Channel. “Rohit was giving me a lot of confidence. He told me to play freely, play my …

‘Sab darr ke khel rahe hain’: Former India batter claims insecurity within Test team under Gautam Gambhir | Cricket News

Published by Webster

Former India batter Mohammed Kaif said insecurity over playing spots has stalled the progress of the Test batters in home conditions under the current team management helmed by Gautam Gambhir. On Sunday, India’s batters put on an abject display on a crumbling Eden Gardens pitch in Kolkata against South Africa in the first Test that they proceeded to lose by 30 runs. Opting for four spinners, including two all-rounders in Washington Sundar and Axar Patel, India moved away from a specialist batter, Sai Sudharsan, at number three for the match. Though Sundar put on an impressive and stoic show in his new slot, Kaif called out the instability over playing XI selections, with batters being rotated quite often. Citing a lack of support for batters such as Sarfaraz Khan, who has been demoted from the national radar, Kaif said on his YouTube channel: “Whichever players are playing, they don’t have a feeling that someone is standing for them. Koi backing nahi hai, sab darr ke khel rahe hain. (There is no backing; everyone is playing …

Paresh Rawal recently opened up about a moment in the early 1990s when he lost out on the National Award despite initially being told he had won. In a conversation with The Lallantop, the actor shared that he was once the frontrunner for the Best Actor award for his performance in Sardar. However, it was Malayalam superstar Mammootty who ultimately bagged the award. Rawal recalled receiving an early morning call while shooting in Mauritius in 1993 or 1994. It was producer Mukesh Bhatt who informed him that he was set to receive the National Award for the film Sir. Just as he was absorbing the news, another call came, this time from filmmaker Kalpana Lajmi. She told him he had won the Best Actor award for Sardar, directed by Ketan Mehta. “Sardar ke liye? Ketan Mehta ki film ke liye?” (For Sardar? The one directed by Ketan Mehta?), Rawal asked her, to which she confirmed, “Haan, Ketan Mehta ki film ke liye” (Yes, for Ketan Mehta’s film). Naturally elated, Rawal returned to Delhi only to …
