Updated Women’s T20 World Cup Points Table: Australia Defeat New Zealand, Onus On India To Make The Most Out Of It

Published by Webster

Defending champions Australia’s march in the Women’s T20 World Cup continued on Tuesday as it beat New Zealand in Sharjah. The win makes things interesting in the Group A points table with only the top two teams having a chance to enter the semi-finals. Currently, Australia lead the points table with two wins in as many matches. Pakistan are second while New Zealand are third. India are fourth and Sri Lanka are fifth. India have so far lost to New Zealand and won against Pakistan. India need to beat Sri Lanka on Wednesday by a massive margin to improve their run-rate.  Then, their next aim will be to beat Australia in the last Group A match. Even if they lose, they must ensure to take the match close so that the run-rate stays above others. In case of a loss, India would hope for New Zealand and Pakistan to lose one more match too. In that case, the team with the better run-rate will enter the semi-finals.  Australia’s batters provided their experienced bowling …

“Surprised How Quickly They Decided”: Ex-India Star Puts Onus On Umpires For Sanju Samson’s Dismissal

Published by Webster

The IPL 2024 match between Delhi Capitals and Rajasthan Royals grabbed a lot of limelight, due to the controversial dismissal of Sanju Samson. Chasing 222, RR put up a great fight with skipper Samson leading from the front. However, he was caught on 86 by Shai Hope after he tried to smash a shot towards the long-on of Mukesh Kumar‘s delivery. The catch has led to a massive controversy with fans and experts split over whether Hope was able to complete the catch without touching the boundary rope. The decision went to the third umpire, who then declared Samson out. Many experts and former cricketers gave their take regarding the catch and former India batter Wasim Jaffer also stated that the third umpire should have taken more time before giving the decision. “With the replays that we saw, I felt he was out. The foot didn’t touch the rope. There wasn’t conclusive evidence. There was an international umpire there. Shai Hope also said that, although obviously, the fielder will say that only. But overall, with …

Onus On Rohit Sharma To Make 2 Tough T20 World Cup Calls, Says Report. One Is On Shubman Gill, Other…

Published by Webster

The Indian cricket team selection for the T20 World Cup is not going to be a straight forward affair at all for the BCCI and Indian team management. While the majority players are certain, there are certain spots which will be intensely debated, according to the several reports. While the players in the XI select themselves, the main point of contention are the players in the backup role. Like, the backup opener, or the backup pacer and wicketkeeper. According to a report in Cricbuzz, the onus is on India captain Rohit Sharma to decide on two key points. They are whether to include a fourth specialist pacer, with Hardik Pandya already in the squad, and whether to consider Shubman Gill. The report also claimed that Hardik Pandya may not be the automatic choice for the vice-captaincy. Rishabh Pant, who has made a remarkable recovery from injury, and is playing some great cricket for Delhi Capitals in the IPL 2024, is also in contention said the report. It further added that Yuzvendra Chahal, IPL’s highest wicket-taker, …

Onus On Rohit Sharma To Rescue Captain Hardik Pandya From Crowd Fire

Published by Webster

Mumbai Indians skipper Hardik Pandya took on one of the hardest tasks in franchise cricket when he was asked to take up the leadership role by the franchise’s bosses. As easy as it may sound, leading a team with as many superstars as Mumbai have, isn’t a smooth ride. The pressure of matching the legacy of Rohit Sharma, who led the franchise to 5 titles in 10 years, coupled with the challenge of proving the owners’ decision of his appointment as the captain, is huge. Fair to say that, so far in the 2 games that Mumbai Indians have played, Hardik hasn’t been able to rise up to the challenge. With MI travelling home for the next match against Rajasthan Royals, after the first two matches away, the task doesn’t get any easier for Hardik, as some of the loyal supporters of the team are expected to welcome their new skipper Hardik with boos and jeers. Hardik might be able to keep the fan anger towards his appointment as skipper away from his on-field responsibilities …

Ashwath Narayan, Narayana Gowda, Gopalaiah, and others at the BJP Jana Sankalpa Yatra in Mandya on December 30, 2022. | Photo Credit: SRIRAM MA Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s aggressive posture against the Janata Dal (Secular) and his keenness to make inroads in the Vokkaliga-dominated Old Mysore region has put the onus on the BJP’s Vokkaliga leaders in pursuing his agenda. Mr. Shah, who publicly attacked the opposition JD(S) during his recent visit to Karnataka, is believed to have told his party colleagues to desist from having a soft corner towards any party, including JD(S). This is being seen as a message, particularly to Vokkaliga leaders in the BJP, as several of them are seen as being ‘soft’ towards the JD(S). A large number of BJP’s Vokkaliga leaders are yet to individually evolve as leaders within the Vokkaliga community. This is being blamed for them not being aggressive against the JD(S). …
