Who should be the captain of RCB after Virat Kohli – Ashish Nehra states his choice!

Posted on by daddybet

Virat Kohli led Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) has performed very well in the Indian Premium League 2021. The team is on the line of being a part of the playoffs this year making it a great year for Virat Kohli. But as per the reports, this is the last season for Virat Kohli as a captain for the franchise, although he would be part of the squad as a batsman. A lot of opinions are being voiced of who should be the next captain of the team and one such name suggested by the famous bowler of his time, Ashish Nehra is that of the youthful Devdutt Padikkal.

There are a lot of experienced players in the squad such as Ab De Villers, Glenn Maxwell, Yajuvendra Chahal and many more. Ashish Nehra in his interview stated that “Devdutt Padikkal can lead the Royal Challengers Bangalore group adequately. In the event that the group is searching for a player as the skipper for quite a while, then, at that point, they should give up the captaincy to Padikkal.”

Ashish believes that Paddikal has all the qualities that make him one of the idealist candidates for the position. Devdutt has been doing very well in homegrown cricket and is quite young as well. He has scored 822 runs in 26 matches with his best score being an unbeaten 101.

RCB lost their last game against Sunrisers Hyderabad where Devdutt Paddikal made the maximum run from the RCB side. Virat Kohli after the loss said that “I don’t think thus, the goal must be to attempt to make it happen quickly. We would prefer not to extend these games excessively profound, however having lost several early wickets, modifying was critical.

Maxi’s [Maxwell] run-out was the game-changing second as far as energy and Maxi was in the zone to get a few major overs. With AB [de Villiers] you are rarely out of the game; however it is tied in with ensuring that the person who’s in stream is protesting in the essential minutes. We had a decent first half with the ball yet not as powerful with the bat pursuing that down. Shahbaz [Ahmed] played an essential thump at that stage, it is a round of little edges, I think Sunrisers held their nerve and bowled out their last couple of conveyances really well to not permit us to get us those successes we were searching for.”

Sanjay Manjrekar Makes Massive Comment On Yuzvendra Chahal

Posted on by daddybet

Sanjay Manjrekar, a former Indian cricketer who now works as a broadcaster, feels Yuzvendra Chahal is back to his best. If his past two appearances in the UAE offer any indication, Chahal is returning to form. During the first half of the season, he only achieved four wickets at an average of 47.25 and a costly economy rate of 8.26 in seven appearances. In three games in the UAE, though, the Haryana leg-spinner has taken five wickets at an average of 12 and an economy rate of six.

Manjrekar, speaking on Cricinfo, believes Chahal is a person who is roused by a challenge. He further said that Chahal’s exclusion from the T20 World Cup would have enraged him even more. In this sense, Manjrekar stated:

“I believe he (Chahal) has returned to his old ways, and this is what Chahal does. He bowls with a lot of passion, and he’s one of those people who will be roused by a challenge and refuse to seek refuge or be slowed down by it.”

The Indian leg-spinner was instrumental in RCB’s stunning victory over the Mumbai Indians a few days ago. Yuzvendra Chahal bowled four overs for 11 runs and three wickets, including the vital scalps of Quinton de Kock and Ishan Kishan.

Sanjay Manjrekar: “I understand why the selectors chose Rahul Chahar over Yuzvendra Chahal.”

Many cricket fans and commentators were perplexed by Yuzvendra Chahal’s exclusion from India’s T20 World Cup team. Manjrekar, on the other hand, believes the selectors had good cause to pick Rahul Chahar over the RCB leg-spinner. This is due to both bowlers’ recent form in the build-up to the IPL’s UAE leg.

Chahal has only 46 wickets in 44 T20s since the start of 2020, with an economy rate of 7.83. After a string of poor performances, he was pulled from the Indian XI midway through the England T20 series earlier this year.

Meanwhile, Chahar has taken full use of his opportunity in the IPL and on the national squad. Chahar has 44 wickets in 35 T20s with an economy rate of 7.59 in the same time span. Manjrekar expressed his thoughts as follows:

“However, to be fair to the selectors, when it came to picking the side and having to include one wrist spinner, Chahal and Rahul Chahar were the two options. It was just after the tour to Sri Lanka, and while Chahal was the best of the spinners there, Rahul Chahar was head and shoulders above Chahal in terms of T20 cricket performance.’

Virat Kohli Breaks Another Record In T20 Cricket

Posted on by daddybet

Virat Kohli, an Indian batsman, became the sixth player in T20 cricket history to reach 10,000 runs on Sunday, September 26. At the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, the 32-year-old achieved the milestone while playing for the Royal Challengers Bangalore against the Mumbai Indians. With a massive over-boundary off fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah, the veteran accomplished the task.

Virat pulled Bumrah for a six over the square leg area on the third ball of the fourth over. The hitter didn’t have complete control of the shot, yet he was able to easily pass the boundary. The Delhi-born batsman had also smashed the bowler for a four-over fine leg in the previous delivery. Virat Kohli, the RCB captain, achieved the milestone in the 312th match of his T20 career.

Virat Kohli hasn’t had the greatest of seasons in the Indian Premier League in 2021. Kohli was gasping for air with the bat in his hand, despite his team’s continued success. However, the fact that he is still the IPL’s all-time leading run-scorer cannot be disputed. Virat Kohli came close to scoring 1000 runs in a single IPL season in 2016.

Virat Kohli has joined an exclusive group of cricketers

He joined West Indies’ Chris Gayle and Kieron Pollard, Pakistan’s Shoaib Malik, and Australia’s David Warner on the exclusive list after reaching the 10000-run mark in T20 cricket. Gayle, who was born in Jamaica, was the first hitter to achieve the milestone. In the shorter format, the left-hander has almost 14,000 runs, 22 centuries, and 87 fifties to his credit.

Pollard then arrived at the landmark. While Gayle is a member of the Punjab Kings, headed by KL Rahul, Pollard is the MI squad’s vice-captain and only leads the team when Rohit Sharma, the normal skipper, is unavailable. The 39-year-old Malik, on the other hand, was a member of the Delhi Daredevils, who are now the Capitals, in the IPL’s first season.

In the meanwhile, Warner is playing for the Sunrisers Hyderabad in the current IPL. He was also replaced as the captain of the Orange Army earlier this year, with Kane Williamson taking over. Rohit Sharma and Aaron Finch are the only batsmen in the current squad who have scored over 10,000 runs in T20 cricket.

AB de Villiers opens up about personal details in a conversation with Jemimah Rodrigues

Posted on by daddybet

The second leg of the Indian Premier League 2021 hasn’t started off with the best of starts for AB de Villiers and his Royal Challengers Bangalore, but the South African great is certain that his team will win the coveted IPL title this season. In an interview with Indian cricketer Jemimah Rodrigues on the show ‘Dream11 Dil Ya Dimaag,’ de Villiers said that he preferred his franchise over Manchester United and that M Chinnaswamy Stadium was preferable to Supersport Park in terms of the stadium.

The interview that the RCB talisman had with the Indian women’s cricketer

De Villiers responded positively when Rodrigues placed him in a difficult situation, asking him to choose between the Red Devils winning their first Premier League championship in 2012 and RCB winning their first-ever IPL trophy. “We are ready to win that IPL Trophy,” the South African remarked. Notably, the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) have yet to experience victory in the Indian Premier League, despite having qualified for the final three times (2009, 2011 and 2016).

The question was posed to De Villiers, who responded with a slap on the back when asked which venue he liked scoring runs the best. De Villiers stated that his favourite place to play cricket in the Chinnaswamy Stadium. “I do not play international cricket anymore. So, when I come to the Chinnaswamy and put my RCB jersey on, there is nothing that beats that,” said de Villiers, whose team will face the Chennai Super Kings in a match tonight in Sharjah.

Despite the fact that he has retired from international cricket, de Villiers chose himself over Royal Challengers Bangalore captain Virat Kohli when asked who he would choose to hit 20 runs off the last over. The Proteas captain, on the other hand, put his emotions on his sleeve when Rodrigues challenged him to travel back in time and win one game between the 2015 World Cup Semifinal and the 2016 IPL Final. “The World Cup is something that I’ve dreamed of since I was a child.” It was my first dream as a child when I was a little kid and first learned to play cricket.”

De Villiers represented South Africa in 114 Tests, 228 One-Day Internationals, and 78 Twenty20 Internationals, accumulating 8765, 9577, and 1672 runs in those formats, with 47 centuries and 109 half-centuries. Despite having declared his retirement from all forms of cricket in May 2018, the 37-year-old is currently involved in the Indian Premier League. De Villiers has scored 5056 runs at a strike rate of 152.34 in 177 IPL matches, with three 100s and 40 half-centuries.

The following is the transcript of the whole discussion between Jemimah Rodrigues and AB de Villiers:

Before the UAE leg of the IPL, Aakash Chopra Offers six Suggestions to the Teams

Posted on by daddybet

In a few days, the second phase of the Indian Premier League will begin in the United Arab Emirates, with the first match between Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians. Former Indian cricketer and pundit Aakash Chopra has offered six intriguing recommendations to all of the teams ahead of the high-profile event.

Chopra’s initial aim was to play just fast pacers and stay away from medium pacers. RCB should avoid playing Harshal Patel in favour of Navdeep Saini and Mohammed Siraj, according to him. Chopra’s second argument was that batting first after winning the toss is the way to go in the UAE, as chasing cannot be the motto, as teams tried it in the 2020 season and failed.

“Do not use medium pacers; instead, use fast bowlers with speeds of above 137-140 kph. Fast bowlers who bowl faster than 140 kph have a higher average, economy rate, and strike rate than slower bowlers. This indicates that the pitches are aiding the speed of the bowlers. So, instead of playing Harshal (Patel), I’d suggest Navdeep and Siraj, who have more speed. “Pick (Josh) Hazlewood over (DJ) Bravo and genuine fast bowlers over swing bowlers,” Chopra stated on his YouTube channel.

Chopra added, as his third suggestion, that teams should select spinners who are faster in the air, such as Varun Chakravarthy and Rashid Khan. Chopra’s fourth argument was that suitable openers should be used against pinch hitters.

The fourth key is to use suitable openers: Aakash Chopra

“The fourth thing is to use good openers. If you’re thinking of starting with pinch hitters or ‘doing something new,’ don’t. The first 30 games here revealed a lot of dot balls at the outset, with at least two wickets falling in the powerplay. In such a situation, appropriate openers with correct approaches are required,” Chopra remarked.

Chopra’s third suggestion was that teams should go with left armers because they were highly effective in the first 30 games, according to his study. The veteran cricketer ultimately advised teams to aim for a total of more than 180 runs when batting first, since anything more than 170-175 becomes hard to chase.

IPL 2021: RCB to Sign George Garton

Posted on by daddybet

RCB is set to sign George Garton for the 2021 IPL. Kane Richardson is out of the tournament, so he replaces him. On September 19th, the UAE leg of the competition will begin. RCB will face KKR in the second phase.

The RCB has already announced three replacements

On Saturday, the RCB announced that Wanindu Hasaranga, Tim David, and Dushmantha Chameera will replace Adam Zampa, Finn Allen, and Daniel Sams on the roster. However, the franchise has not announced who will replace Kane Richardson, the Aussie pacer who will also not play in the remainder of IPL 2021.

RCB will sign George Garton for the IPL 2021

RCB is likely to hire left-arm pacer George Garton for the UAE-leg of the IPL in 2021, according to Cricinfo. As per a report, the inclusion of the Englishman in the IPL is subject to approval by the IPL governing council.

George Garton:

George Garton, 24, is an English left-arm pacer. The Southern Brave, the team which won the inaugural Hundred, was comprised of him. One of the most important players who helped the team win the cup was him. In the finals, the player opened the bowling for his team and bowled 20 balls for 27 runs. In the final, he bowled David Bedingham. Another new RCB signing, Tim David, caught the ball.

With an average of 19.51 and 43 wickets, he has played 37 T20 games so far. Besides bowling well in the shortest format, George is also a good red-ball bowler. Many believe he would do well in the whites as well.

IPL 2021 (Phase 2): Hasaranga is the new Addition for RCB

Posted on by daddybet

Finally, on September 19, we will be witnessing the much awaited IPL phase 2 in the UAE. IPL’s schedule has been released, with a few surprises.

Post-pandemic, all sports tournaments that were either halted or delayed have resumed. However, many schedules of several events also appear to overlap. Players as well as the organizing committee face challenges.

In a very short time, the IPL and the T20 world cup will follow each other. This has led to a widespread dilemma among the players. When you have to sacrifice one for the other, it is definitely a critical decision.

As a result, the most talked-about team of the IPL, Royal Challengers Bangalore, is currently facing difficulties. RCB appears to be losing players at a crucial time, mostly Aussies, despite leading the points table. Daniel Sams, Kane Richardson, and Adam Zampa are not listed for the RCB.

With 3 Australian players not taking part in the second phase of IPL, Hasaranga is the new addition for RCB.

Aussies cite personal reasons, while we know that most may be anticipating bio-bubble fatigue, while others believe they might be preparing for the world cup.

RCB has signed spin sensation Wanidu Hasaranga in the place of Zampa, some days ago. Hasaranga has excellent bowling figures and his addition will strengthen the bowling attack.

Asked about Hasaranga’s reaction, he says that he is both excited and honored to be a part of this team. However, we have also learned another interesting fact about this young man.

He posted several old posts with pictures of Indian captain Virat Kohli. This affirms that he loves the skipper. Kohli fans were thrilled to learn this and took to Twitter to share their excitement.

Watch Hasaranga’s old tweets here:

As of 2016, Hasaranga was among Kohli’s fans. Hasaranga wrote these two posts in 2016. He appreciated Kohli’s accomplishments in both of these.

Kohli is referred to as a hero in one of the IPL editions in which he scores the most runs. He was named the man of the tournament as a result. Virat wears the Indian team jersey in another post praising the skipper.

One of the largest fan bases in the world belongs to Virat Kohli. The result is that RCB is the most talked-about team despite its poor performances and trophy droughts. It is an entirely different experience to have a fan play for his dream captain within the squad itself.

Virat’s bowling woes will be eased by Hasaranga’s addition. Additionally, it would be interesting to know who will replace Zampa’s other Australian counterparts. We will have to wait until the final reveal of the squad.
