James Neesham Has A Hilarious Reaction To His Brilliant Three-Wicket Haul In The Hundred

The cricket boards of various cricketing nations are trying their best to make cricket popular in their country and while the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) came up with the Indian Premier League, the England and Wales cricket board has come up with The Hundred, a professional franchise 100-ball cricket tournament in which eight men’s and eight women’s cricket team battle it out to win the trophy.

James Neesham, the popular New Zealand cricketer, is also taking part in The Hundred and he is playing for Welsh Fire which is being lead by Jonny Bairstow. On 27th July, Welsh Fire defeated Southern Brave by 18 runs in a match which was played at Sophia Gardens, Cardiff.

Batting first, Welsh Fire put up a score of 165/4 on the score board with the help of the brilliant knock played by the skipper Jonny Bairstow who made 72 runs is just 39 balls and his innings included 5 fours and the same number of sixes. Tom Banton and Ben Duckett also played useful innings of 34 and 53, respectively.

Southern Brave had a steady start but they lost wickets at a regular interval and were able to score only 147/7 as a result of which they lost the match by 18 runs. James Neesham was unable to make any contribution while batting as he got out for duck but he was superb with the ball as he bowled 15 deliveries out of which 10 were dot balls; he dismissed 3 batsmen and only gave 5 runs.

James Neesham is pretty active on the social media networks, especially on the micro-blogging site Twitter, and he also thought of having some fun after playing an important role in his team’s victory.

He retweeted the Tweet made by the official Twitter handle of The Hundred which stated, “15 balls bowled. 5 runs conceded. 3 wickets taken. @JimmyNeesh was UNPLAYABLE last night Exploding head #TheHundred”.

The caption used by James Neesham to share the tweet was, “There’s an old saying, every dog has his day” with a laughing emoji.

James Neesham certainly has a great sense of humour and hopefully we will be able to see him play in the remaining matches of the IPL 2021 which will be conducted in September-October in UAE before the T20 World Cup.

Rahul Dravid Speaks On Playing Four Debutantes In 2nd T20I Post Krunal & 8 Players’ Exclusion

The Sri Lankan team has leveled the 3-match T20I series against India by 1-1 after winning the second T20I match which was played yesterday at R. Premdasa Stadium, Colombo. Earlier the second T20I was scheduled to be played on 27th July but it was postponed for 28 July after the Indian cricketer Krunal Pandya tested positive.

As a precautionary measure, the Indian team management sent eight Indian players – Hardik Pandya, Yuzvendra Chahal, Suryakumar Yadav, Ishan Kishan, K Gowtham, Deepak Chahar, Prithvi Shaw and one more player, whose identity is not known, into isolation as they were identified in the list of close contacts of Krunal Pandya.

With this, the Indian team management was left to deal with a peculiar situation as to who all will be a part of the playing eleven in the second T20I. Four Indian players- Nitish Rana, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Chetan Sakariya and Devdutt Padikkal made their debut in the shortest format on July 28.

While talking to the mediapersons before the start of the second T20I, the head coach of the Indian team Rahul Dravid said that they had 11 players to choose from and all of them are playing in the second T20I. He further added that things turned out in such a way that they were left with no option other than giving a chance to the youngsters but they did it in ODIs as well (the Indian team played 5 debutantes in the final ODI of the series after taking invincible lead of 2-0).

Rahul Dravid who is also known as “The Wall” by cricket lovers says that when a player is selected by the selectors to represent the country, he has to be good enough to be included in the playing eleven and no one is sent to enjoy holidays or relax on the benches.

The Indian team led by Shikhar Dhawan went with 25 players to Sri Lanka but no one would have ever thought that such a situation would arise. Rahul Dravid adds that every player who is on the Sri Lankan tour has earned the right to be there and it is not possible to give everyone a chance to play but it’s good that all of them have got a chance to play in Sri Lanka.

Here is a video in this regard:

The Indian team management will have to face another problem as Prithvi Shaw and Suryakumar Yadav are also included in the list of isolated players and these two were scheduled to leave for England on Monday to join Virat Kohli led Indian team as few cricketers of that squad have got injured in England.

The third and the final T20I of the series will be played today and the team which will win today’s match will also be the winner of the series.

Wasim Jaffer Shares Meme On Rahul Dravid As Krunal Pandya & 8 Other Cricketers Are Isolated

The Indian cricket team which is in Sri Lanka at the moment is facing a new problem as the Indian cricketer Krunal Pandya has tested COVID-19 positive and he won’t be playing further in the T20I series. The 2nd T20I which was scheduled to take place on 27th July was postponed and re-scheduled to be played on July 28.

However, the Indian camp will now have difficulty in selecting the playing eleven because eight Indian cricketers who are found to be in close contact with Krunal Pandya have also been sent to isolation as a precautionary move despite the fact that they have tested COVID-19 negative.

With this, the nine Indian cricketers won’t be available for selection and now the Indian fans are coming up with their views as to how the Indian team management can form a playing eleven for the second T20I.

The former Indian cricketer Wasim Jaffer has also come up with a suggestion for this purpose but in a funny style as he has shown in his meme that the head coach of the Indian team Rahul Dravid will call the former Indian cricketer VVS Laxman and other former Indian cricketers for facing the Sri Lankan squad in the remaining matches.

Wasim Jaffer captioned the post, “A story in 3 parts. SL isn’t ready #SLvIND #RahulDravid”

Rahul Dravid is undoubtedly one of the finest batsmen of all times but the former cricketer who is also known as “The Wall” by his fans took retirement in 2012 and obviously he won’t be taking the field as a player in any situation.

The relatively young Indian team led by Shikhar Dhawan has already won the 3-match ODI series by 2-1 and has also won the first T20I of the 3-match series. The Sri Lankan team will certainly like to take advantage of this situation and attain victory in the series by winning the remaining two T20Is.

It will be quite interesting to see how the Indian management will counter this problem.

R Ashwin Shares A Photo & Asks To Caption It, Virat Kohli Responds With A Funny Comment

The Indian cricketer Ravichandran Ashwin is an integral part of team India and his performance will certainly play an important role in the upcoming 5-match test series which will be played between India and England starting August 4. R Ashwin will lead the spin department of the Indian side and he is also a lower order batsman who can score some useful runs whenever the team needs him to do so.

Ashwin also played in County cricket for Surrey and in that match, he took 6 wickets including a fifer and this must have given him some idea of the conditions before going into the series. By performing well in the upcoming series, Ravichandran Ashwin has the chances of giving a perfect reply to the cricketing experts who claim that Ashwin is not much effective in the SENA countries which are – South Africa, England, New Zealand and Australia.

Ashwin is pretty active on the social media networks and recently he posted a photo on his official Instagram handle in which he is seen having a discussion with Bharat Arun, the bowling coach of the Indian team. R Ashwin asked his fans and followers to tell the caption for the image as he wrote, “Caption this for me pls”.

Here is the image:

Check out the post:

The post was soon noticed by the Indian skipper Virat Kohli who is known for his aggressive attitude on the field but is quite a jolly character off-the field.

The 32 years old RCB skipper took this as an opportunity to have some fun and he wrote in the comment, “Let me bowl pls paji”.

Ravichandran Ashwin is quite a cool cricketer and he once again proved it recently by giving a funny answer to the fan who pointed out a weakness in his batting. Many times people have tried to troll Ashwin but Virat Kohli’s style is quite awesome, isn’t it?

This Is What Rahul Dravid Told Sri Lankan Skipper Dasun Shanaka During INDvsSL 3rd ODI

The young Indian cricket team led by Shikhar Dhawan has been garnering praises for their superb performance in Sri Lanka as the squad which was called a second string team by the former Sri Lankan skipper Arjuna Ranatunga has won the ODI series by 2-1 and has also won the first T20I of the 3-match series.

In the first ODI, the Indian side completely overpowered the hosts and won the match comfortably but in the second ODI, the Sri Lankans made a comeback and had an upper hand for the majority part of the match. There was a time when India had lost seven wickets at the score of 193 and needed 83 runs to win the match with Deepak Chahar and Bhuvneshwar Kumar at the crease.

Deepak Chahar played a brilliant knock of 69 runs and along with Bhuvneshwar Kumar, he ensured that the Indian squad wins the match. The Sri Lankans were really shocked at this defeat as they were in a pretty strong position in the match and the frustration was quite visible on the face of the Sri Lankan team head coach Mickey Arthur. In fact, the coach also had a heated debate with the Sri Lankan skipper Dasun Shanaka while they were on the field.

Now a video is going viral in which team India’s head coach Rahul Dravid is seen having a chat with Dasun Shanaka during the 3rd and the final ODI which Sri Lanka won and the netizens were speculating what Dravid would have told Dasun.

Here is the video:

Recently, Dasun Shanaka has opened up on this matter and as per reports, Rahul Dravid has told him that he has been leading his team pretty well and every Sri Lankan cricketer has made praiseworthy efforts. The former Indian cricketer also tells the Sri Lankan skipper that he and his team are surprised with the manner in which the Sri Lankan team has shown improvement in the second ODI, though India has attained victory in that match after a close fight.

Rahul Dravid also applauded unity of the Sri Lankan team and added that without it, no team can be a winner.

The second T20I will be played today (Tuesday) and while the hosts will like to level the series by winning it, the visitors will certainly try their best to take an unassailable lead by beating Sri Lanka in the match.

R Ashwin Has An Epic & Funny Response To Fan Who Points Out A Weakness In His Batting

Ravichandran Ashwin, the Indian spinner, will have to play an important role if the Indian team has to register victory in the 5-match test series against England which will be starting from August 4. R Ashwin was also the part of the Indian squad which lost the World Test Championship finals against New Zealand and since then, it is Ashwin only who has played a match while the other Indian players took a three-week break. Ashwin played for Surrey in the county championship match and ended up with 6 wickets including a fifer.

R Ashwin is also pretty active on the social media networks including the micro-blogging site Twitter. Besides, he also has his own YouTube channel on which we have seen him talking on various cricketing matters and sometimes he also takes interviews of other players.

Ravichandran Ashwin many have been more popular as a spinner but he is also a lower order batsman who has played some useful innings for team India and recently, a fan pointed out a weakness in Ashwin’s batting. In the comment posted under one of the YouTube videos of Ashwin, the fan writes that he has been observing Ashwin’s batting for long and he feels that Ashwin has problem in playing a bouncer which is bowled over the wicket by the bowler on the line of middle stump and the short leg is fielded while he bats.

This is what the fan wrote, “Sir observing your batting for a long time if there is any problem it is the incoming bouncer directed at the body around the middle stump line from over the wicket and short leg therefore comes into play while you bat”.

While some other cricketer may have lost his cool, Ashwin knows how to handle such situations and he has given a very funny answer to the fan by stating that such delivery would have troubled even the legendary cricketer Don Bradman. Ashwin responded with, “This ball will trouble Don Bradman also!”.

Hopefully Ashwin will perform well with not just ball but bat too in the upcoming 5-match test series against England and India will win the series just like it did at home against England some time ago.
