Sachin Praises Dinesh Karthik Whole-Heartedly For His Form In IPL, DK’s Reaction Is Gold

Dinesh Karthik, the veteran Indian cricketer, is in sublime form in the IPL 2022 and everybody is just going gaga over the manner in which he has emerged as a finisher for his IPL team Royal Challengers Bangalore in the tournament. Earlier Dinesh Karthik led Kolkata Knight Riders but he was replaced by Eoin Morgan after poor performance of the team and the franchise released him ahead of the mega-auction for the IPL 2022.

RCB bought the wicketkeeper-batsman for a price of Rs. 5.5 crore and it won’t be wrong to say that he is trying his level best to justify his purchase. RCB has won three out of five matches that it played and Dinesh Karthik has remained not out four times till now with the scores of 32*, 14*, 44*, 7* and 34. Many cricket fans are of the opinion that DK should get a call in the national team as he may end India’s search of a finisher and will certainly increase the chances of India winning the T20 World Cup.

Not just Dinesh Karthik’s teammates but many former cricketers such as Ravi Shastri, Sunil Gavaskar and others have praised him for his brilliant knocks. However, one appreciation that Karthik is cherishing the most is made by none other than the legendary former Indian cricketer Sachin Tendulkar.

In a video which has been uploaded on 100MB app and YouTube, Sachin Tendulkar says that RCB has a very lethal player in its lower order in the form of Dinesh Karthik who is a 360 degree player whether he plays against spin or pace. Sachin Tendulkar further states that when DK starts attacking, he begins from the very first ball and he doesn’t make his mind early for hitting the ball, first he reads the line and length of the ball and then he plays the shot accordingly. Sachin Tendulkar also adds that there are very few batsmen in the cricket world in the present times who can read the line and length of ball as quick as DK.

Here is the video clip in which you can hear Sachin Tendulkar praising Dinesh Karthik and it is posted with the caption,

“‘There are not many right now who are picking up line & length of a bowler so quickly like @DineshKarthik has been doing’

Watch what @sachin_rt had to say about Dinesh Karthik’s unreal form! 🔥

#IPL2022”

Undoubtedly it is one of the proudest moments of DK’s life and he responded with, “That feeling of being on cloud 9 when the G.O.A.T of cricket appreciates you”.

It seems RCB may win IPL this year, what do you say?

Ex PCB Chief Reveals Wives Of Pakistan Cricketers Were Sent To India In 2012 For This Reason

India and Pakistan are known as arch-rivals on the cricket ground but due to the tension in their political relations, they haven’t faced each other much in the recent past. The last bilateral series that India and Pakistan played was in 2012 when the Pakistani team visited India for playing 2-match T20I series and 3-match ODI series. The Indian government has very strictly stated that no sports relations will be maintained with Pakistan until and unless it stops promoting anti-India activities.

Zaka Ashraf was the Pakistan Cricket Board’s President in 2012 when team Pak visited India and recently he made quite an interesting revelation regarding his cricketers and their wives. He stated that the PCB decided to send wives of the Pakistani cricketers with them on the tour to India so that the wives could keep a check on the cricketers and any mishap could be avoided.

Zaka Ashraf said that he suggested this because the Indian media is always looking for controversy in relation to their players. He added that everyone in the Pakistani team accepted this suggestion without any problem and visited India. He also alleged that whenever Pakistan tours India, the host tries to cook up a controversy and demean their players and this was avoided in 2012 by sending wives of the cricketers on the tour.

Zaka Ashraf claimed that the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) also promised India’s tour to Pakistan in return but that never happened. He went on to say that Narayanaswami Srinivasan was the BCCI President at that time and he promised that team India would visit Pakistan provided foolproof security was provided.

Talking about the present times, Zaka Ashraf stated that attempts should be made for restoring cricketing ties between India and Pakistan and the good thing is that General Bajwa who is currently on an important position loves cricket and wants to see the Pakistan cricket flourish.

Should India play bilateral series with Pakistan? What do you think?

Iceland Cricket Slammed For Keeping Virat Kohli As 12th Man In India’s Best Test Playing XI List

The Iceland Cricket may not have been able to make its presence felt on the international level as far as cricket is concerned but it is certainly making a big impact on the social media networks. Some time ago, its official Twitter handle posted a tweet in which it took a jibe at the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) for poor umpiring in the IPL, especially in the match between Mumbai Indians and Royal Challengers Bangalore.

In that match, Virat Kohli was given lbw out on the bowling of Dewald Brevis who is also referred to as Baby AB. Coming back to Kohli’s dismissal, after the on-field umpire gave Virat lbw out, he asked for a review and in the replay, it was seen that the ball touched the bat and the pad simultaneously. As per the rules, if such a situation occurs, the touch with the bat should be given the priority but the third umpire still gave Kohli out.

The Iceland Cricket used this as an opportunity to take a dig at the richest cricket board of the world and it tweeted, “It’s not easy for on field umpires to detect inside edges or whether ball hit bat or pad first. But every TV umpire should be able to make the right call with the benefit of slow motion replays and technology like UltraEdge. @BCCI We have trained umpires ready to fly over.”

The Iceland Cricket once again made a tweet regarding the Indian Cricket but this time, it has attracted ire of the Indian cricket fans as it kept Virat Kohli as a 12th man while making the list of India’s best ever test playing XI.

The Iceland cricket made Rahul Dravid the skipper of the team which included Sunil Gavaskar, Virender Sehwag, Sachin Tendulkar, Vijay Hazare, MS Dhoni (w), Kapil Dev, Ravichandran Ashwin, Anil Kumble, Javagal Srinath and Jasprit Bumrah.

Keeping Virat Kohli as a 12th man did not go well with the Indian cricket fans as Virat Kohli is certainly one of the greatest of all times who has played 101 test matches and has scored 8043 runs which included 27 centuries and 28 fifties as well. The former RCB skipper may have given up his test captaincy but he is the most successful test skipper of India as under his leadership, India played 68 test matches and won 40 of them.

Dale Steyn Has A Cool Reply To Twitter User Who Trolls Him By Calling Bumrah Better Than Him

Dale Steyn, the 38 years old former South African cricketer, is one of the best pacers of all time and many times he has given match-winning performances in his illustrious career. For many years, he was the backbone of South Africa’s pace bowling and it won’t be wrong to say that he had the talent to make life hell for batsmen. His athletic physique, smooth bowling action and capability to take wickets with both new and old balls made him more lethal than his contemporaries but many times he has proved that he can be a tough nut to crack on the social media networks as well.

Getting trolled is not new for Dale Steyn but the perfect answers that he gives display his wittiness and good sense of humour and something of the similar sort happened once again. Recently, an online user tried to demean him by calling the Indian pacer Jasprit Bumrah better than him but Dale Steyn’s response was just too good.

The Twitter user wrote, “Bumrah is better than you.”

Dale Steyn replied by saying that he is sure Bumrah is better than him as he has retired.

Jasprit Bumrah’s comparison with Dale Steyn is completely unjustified as the latter has proved himself many times while the former has a long way to go. After making his debut in 2004, Dale Steyn has represented South Africa in 93 test matches, 125 ODIs and 47 T20Is and he has taken 439 test wickets, 196 ODI wickets and 64 T20I wickets. As far as the IPL is concerned, he has played for Royal Challengers Bangalore, Deccan Chargers (now defunct), Sunrisers Hyderabad and Gujarat Lions (now defunct). Dale Steyn would have more wickets in his name if injuries had not troubled him in the later part of his career.

On the other hand, Jasprit Bumrah shined while he played for the IPL team Mumbai Indians. In 2016, he got the chance to represent the country in the shorter formats and in 2018, he got to play in the purest form. Till date, Bumrah has played 29 test matches in which he has taken 123 wickets, in 70 ODIs he has taken 113 wickets and in 57 T20Is he has taken 67 wickets.

Dale Steyn once again shut the troller like a boss with his cool yet apt reply. What do you say?

“Mumbai Se Hai Toh Shaana Ban Raha Hai?” Shreyas & Shardul’s Hilarious Banter Will ROFL You

Kolkata Knight Riders is going pretty well in the IPL 2022 as it is sitting on the second spot with 3 wins out of 5 matches it has played. In fact, the team would have obtained the top spot if it had won its last match which was against Delhi Capitals.

The match between KKR and DC was played on April 10 at Brabourne Stadium and in this regard, a video went viral which featured KKR skipper Shreyas Iyer and DC cricketer Shardul Thakur. The video was posted by the Kolkata franchise and both the cricketers had a friendly banter in which they challenged each other to perform better at the Brabourne Stadium.

The video started with Shreyas Iyer calling Shardul ‘Lord’ and saying that he is looking good in the DC camp. In reply, Shardul tells Shreyas that he is also shining, his face is shining and then he asks whether it is because of the KKR jersey.

Further, Shreyas tells Shardul that he should get ready to see one more sample in Brabourne as he already knows his record over there. In response, Shardul makes a witty remark by asking him whether he is acting smart just because he is from Mumbai (“Mumbai se hai toh shaana ban raha hai kya?”). They further talked about the times when they faced each other in nets.

Here is the video which KKR posted with the caption, “Friendly banter or sledging? We’ll leave it to you to decide!”

As far as the match is concerned, DC won the match comfortably by 44 runs. The toss was won by KKR and it decided to bowl first, DC managed to put up a huge total of 215/5 on the board with the help of David Warner’s 61 and Prithvi Shaw’s 51. Though Shreyas Iyer scored a resilient 54, he was not able to take his team home as a winner because KKR got all out for 171 runs with 2 balls remaining in its innings.

Such friendly banters are quite enjoyable! What do you say?
