‘I was talking to Virat bhaiya’ — Prince Yadav’s three-wicket haul and Mitchell Marsh’s 111 power LSG past RCB in last-over thriller | Cricket News

LSG beat RCB by nine runs (DLS) after Marsh’s 111 off 56 powered them to 209/3 in 19 overs. Then Prince Yadav’s 3/33 dismantled RCB’s top order in a revised chase. Mitchell Marsh made 111. Prince Yadav took three wickets. Three rain interruptions forced a DLS revision that set RCB a target of 213 in 19 overs. They finished on 203 for 6. Tim David’s 40 off 17 and Krunal Pandya’s unbeaten 28 off 16 made it close — closer than it should have been — but Digvesh Rathi held his nerve in the final over to deny them. Marsh’s masterclass Marsh has never really done things by half. His sixes don’t lob over the rope, they clear them with distance to spare. And when he decided to take apart RCB’s bowling attack on Thursday at Ekana, he did it in the only way he knows — from the first ball, with the full face of the bat, straight down the ground. Two sixes off Josh Hazlewood in the first over set the tone — …

Varun Chakravarthy’s fifer goes in vain as South Africa register three-wicket win in second T20I

Varun Chakravarthy’s fifer goes in vain as South Africa register three-wicket win in second T20I

Spinner Varun Chakravarthy’s magical craftiness en route a maiden fifer remained a mere footnote as South Africa rode on the stubbornness of Tristan Stubbs to eke out a three-wicket win over India in a low-scoring second T20I on Sunday. The four-match series is now level at 1-1. But SA’s victory, which also halted India’s 11-match winning streak, did not come without its share of drama. South Africa’s David Miller, second left, reacts after he is bowled out by India’s Varun Chakravarthy. 2024.AP/PTI(AP11_10_2024_000339B)(AP) The first hint of a topsy-turvy night came when India limped to 124 for six on a quick, bouncy pitch after getting the invitation to bat first.

PBKS vs RR, IPL 2024: Rajasthan Royals Brave Accurate Punjab Kings Bowlers, Slow Pitch To Register Three-Wicket Win

Rajasthan Royals struggled against Punjab Kings bowlers who took the pace off the ball cleverly on a sticky pitch but found enough steam to eke out a hardworking three-wicket win in their IPL 2024 match at Mullanpur on Saturday. The target was a rather easy-looking 148 but a set of spot-on Punjab bowlers and a tacky surface made the task of Royals tough before they made 152 for seven. The Rajasthan outfit required 49 runs off the last five overs, but they had to wait till the penultimate ball of the match to get over the line despite having power-hitters like Rovman Powell (11, 5b) and Shimron Hetmyer (27 not out, 10b, 1×4, 3×6) in their ranks. That equation came down to 10 off the final six balls after Hetmyer moussed Harshal Patel for a six and four, which the West Indian left-hander realised through a couple of sixes off pacer Arshdeep Singh in the last over. The Royals began their chase sedately through Yashasvi Jaiswal and Tanush Kotian without any real scoreboard pressure behind …
