Ex CSK Player Doubts Dhoni’s Captaincy, “Do CSK Want A Captain With 200 Runs At SR Of 128?”

Chennai Super Kings had a disastrous IPL 2022 as it not only ended up at the 9th position in the points table but its campaign was also marred by the captaincy saga. Just before the start of the tournament, Ravindra Jadeja was announced as the new skipper of the team but he soon gave up the captaincy as the team performed pretty badly under his leadership and MS Dhoni once again took the charge of CSK. Later on it was stated that Ravindra Jadeja had been ruled out of the IPL 2022 because of an injury but there were some rumours as per which things are not on good terms between the Indian all-rounder and the CSK management and the former may not figure in the team in the next season.

As CSK’s campaign came to an end, there were two things about which CSK fans are very much concerned, first whether MS Dhoni will play in the next season and second, whether he will lead the team then or not.

While MS Dhoni has made it clear that he will be playing in the next season, the air regarding the captaincy issue is not yet clear and many cricket experts and former cricketers have also shared their opinion in this matter.

Speaking on a sports show before the start of the match which was played between CSK and Rajasthan Royals, the former Aussie cricketer Matthew Hayden states that though it will be a very emotional decision for the franchise considering the fact that MS Dhoni has contributed immensely in the success of CSK yet if the individual performances are taken into consideration while appointing a skipper, MS Dhoni has no chance of leading the team.

Matthew Hayden further says that there is no doubt MS Dhoni has power in his hands, he is quick behind the wickets, still he is a great runner between the wickets and he is the most experienced cricketer in the IPL but if we look at his contribution with the bat, he is not the one who should lead the team because he has scored only 200 runs at a strike rate of 128.

Hayden goes on to state that if the franchise is comfortable with Dhoni’s contribution with bat, it is their choice but if we compare his batting figures with that of RR skipper Sanju Samson, Dhoni is quite behind. Matthew Hayden adds that Sanju Samson has scored 300 runs at an average of 30 but his performance as a skipper is still questioned. The former Aussie cricketer says that the decision will be very emotional but he is quite clear in this regard.

However, the former Indian cricketer Sunil Gavaskar who was also a part of the show had a disagreement with Matthew Hayden as he wanted Dhoni to continue in this role next year as well. Little Master states that being the legend that Dhoni is, the Indian cricket lovers just want to see him keep on playing as they can’t get enough of him. Sunil Gavaskar referred to the retirement of legendary Sachin Tendulkar and said that it was a very sad occasion and as we all are aware of the fact that Dhoni might play some matches next year, fans would want to see him carry on.

Should Dhoni lead CSK next year as well or should the team play under a new skipper? What are your views in this regard? Let us know.

Nitish Rana Posts A Cryptic Tweet After BCCI Didn’t Select Him For South Africa T20I Series

Many Indian cricketers have performed well in the ongoing IPL 2022 as few of them want to make a comeback in the Indian team while the youngsters are hoping to make a debut for the country. Yesterday, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced names of the Indian cricketers who have been included in the list of 18-member squad for the South African tour and soon after that, people started giving their opinion on this matter.

While everyone is happy with the fact that the Indian cricketer Dinesh Karthik is making a comeback in the limited overs cricket after almost 3 years, there are many have who slammed Chetan Sharma-led selection committee for not selecting Shikhar Dhawan and Sanju Samson despite their good performance in the ongoing league. Cricket fans are also unhappy because the selectors haven’t chosen Rahul Tripathi but one more cricketer who should have made comeback in the opinion of fans is none other than KKR’s Nitish Rana.

Nitish Rana made his debut last year when the Indian squad went to Sri Lanka for playing 3 ODIs and the same number of T20Is. He played in the last ODI and scored only 7 runs before getting out and in the T20Is as well, he failed in making an impact as in the second T20I, he scored 9 and in the third and final match, he managed only 6 runs.

However in the ongoing IPL 2022, Nitish Rana has played 14 matches for KKR and has scored 361 runs. After not getting a call from the BCCI, he took to the micro-blogging site Twitter and posted a cryptic tweet “Things will change soon” with an emoji of the Indian national flag and a target.

While the selectors have picked Umran Malik and Arshdeep Singh, some cricket fans are not happy with the selection of Ishan Kishan and Ruturaj Gaikwad as they both, especially the former was out of form in the IPL this year. Hardik Pandya has also made a comeback with the help of his great all-round performances in the league.

The team will be led by KL Rahul as senior players Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are not a part of the South African tour where India will be playing a 5-match T20I series.

Dinesh Karthik Makes A Heartfelt Tweet After Selection For India’s SA Tour For T20I Series

The Indian cricketer Dinesh Karthik has been making news for all the right reasons as his performance in the ongoing IPL 2022 has been impeccable and he has played an important role in the campaign of Royal Challengers Bangalore. Dinesh Karthik embraced the role of a finisher in a pretty good manner and there are some instances in which he has taken out RCB from the cliché of defeat and taken the team home as a winner.

DK had earlier expressed his wish to play for India once again in the shorter format as he wanted to play the role of a finisher in the team and yesterday his wish got fulfilled as his name was included in the team for the South African tour where India will play 5-match T20I series.

This was certainly a great moment for DK as the 36 years old wicketkeeper-batsman is making a comeback after almost 3 years because the last match he played for India was the semi-final of the World Cup 2019 which India lost to New Zealand.

As Dinesh Karthik’s name was announced in the 18-member squad, he took to the micro-blogging site Twitter and made an emotional post. He shared an image of himself in the blue jersey and wrote, “If you believe yourself, everything will fall into place! Thank you for all the support and belief…the hard work continues…”

On the other hand, RCB also left no stone unturned in making this moment special for DK and fans as it took an interview of the cricketer in which he stated that he is very, very happy and this is probably the most special comeback as a lot of people had given up on him.

RCB posted the interview with the caption, “We spoke to @DineshKarthik, soon after he was named in the Indian T20I squad for the SA series, and he spoke about his self-belief, hours and days of preparation, and the role RCB played in him staging a comeback, only on @KreditBee presents Bold Diaries.”

In the IPL 2022 so far, DK scored 287 runs at a strike rate of 191.33 and in the video, he also expressed his gratitude towards the franchise for showing faith in him and buying him in the auction. RCB spent Rs. 5.5 crore for buying Dinesh Karthik and he is certainly justifying this decision.

Hardik Pandya has also made a comeback after performing superbly in the ongoing tournament but Rohit Sharma won’t be leading the team as Hitman and Virat Kohli have been rested while KL Rahul will be the team’s skipper for this tour.

All the best Dinesh Karthik!

Fan Dug Shah Rukh’s Old Tweets When He Tried To Teach His Son Grammar & It Made Us Nostalgic

Today is a very special day for the Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan as it is his daughter, Suhana Khan’s birthday and the girl who is going to make her Bollywood debut with Zoya Akhtar directed “The Archies” has turned 22 today.

We have seen Shah Rukh playing many characters in movies and it won’t be wrong to say that he has played all the roles to the perfection whether it is of a college-going student, a husband, a gangster, a lover, etc. but he has also played the role of a father in real life to the perfection.

Being a doting father, SRK is very concerned about his kids and in the year 2010, he even tried to teach his kids English grammar but when he faced problems, he took to Twitter and asked for help from his followers.

At that time, the “Fan” actor asked his fans to make him understand how to teach phrase and clauses to his kids and at the same time, he also made it clear that he knew nothing about predicate. One Twitter user unearthed the old tweets of SRK and posted them on his Twitter handle.

Here are the tweets in which SRK expressed his inability to teach his son phrases and clauses of the English grammar:

He even went on to call phrases and clauses a ploy of the British to keep the Indians busy so that they can rule their country. To add humour to his tweets, he also asked the predicate to go away:

At last, the King of Romance gave up and decided that he would like to be a learner of emotions and dramatic pauses rather than becoming a poet who is well-versed in phrases and clauses. Some of his dialogues such as “kkk stammer is better than grammar” made people go ROFL at that time and in the present times as well.

Check out the tweet:

This is how his fans reacted over it:

Anand Mahindra Responds To Thomas Cup Winner Chirag Shetty’s Request To Get His XUV700 Delivered

There has been a considerable change in the Indian sports arena as earlier Indians used to win mostly in cricket and were not able to make much impact in other sports but now we are attaining triumph in other sports as well and making our presence felt on the world stage.

Recently, the Indian badminton team scripted history by winning the prestigious Thomas Cup held in Thailand’s Bangkok for the first time in the last 73 years since the inception of the tournament and became the sixth team to win it. This was the first time that an Indian team entered the finals of the tournament and it defeated the favorites, i.e., the 14 times champion Indonesia in the finals in straight set 3-0.

Soon, the social media networks were flooded with congratulatory messages and Anand Mahindra, the chairman of Mahindra Group, also expressed his happiness on the micro-blogging site Twitter as he wrote that he grew up reading about the Thomas Cup and Indonesia’s badminton player Rudy Hartono who completely dominated the sports.

Anand Mahindra wrote, “This is the dawn of an era of Indian ascendancy in this sport; a sport that’s always been loved & played throughout our country. I grew up reading about the Thomas Cup & titans like Indonesia’s Rudy Hartono who dominated it. Today we swept Indonesia away… Apna Time Aa Gaya…”

Soon Chirag Shetty, one of the players of the badminton team which won the Thomas Cup, responded and thanked Anand Mahindra for his wishes. He also brought his attention on the matter of XUV700 which he booked and requested Anand Mahindra to get it delivered soon.

In his reply, Anand Mahindra says that they will try to deliver it soon to him and they are ready to work harder as XUV700 is champion’s choice. However, he also discloses that he has ordered one XUV700 for his wife too and he is still in queue, the reason behind the delay as stated by the chairman of Mahindra group is the disruptions in global supply chain.

He tweeted, “Since that makes the XUV7OO the Choice Of Champions we will have to work extra hard to get it to you ASAP. @vijaynakra I hope you see this!  (By the way, I’ve ordered one for my wife & I’m still in Q!) Sadly, the global supply chain disruptions are plaguing all car companies”.

Hopefully, Chirag Shetty will get his vehicle soon as champions should not be made to wait!

“Ban Him From Commentary,” Twitter Slams Sunil Gavaskar For Unpleasant Remark On Hetmyer’s Wife

The former Indian cricketer Sunil Gavaskar who is a pretty famous commentator of the present times has once again invited trouble for himself after making a cheeky comment which is related to a West Indian cricketer’s wife.

Sunil Gavaskar is currently commentating in the matches of the IPL 2022 and during the match between Rajasthan Royals and Chennai Super Kings which was played on May 20 at Brabourne Stadium, Mumbai, he made a comment about Shimron Hetmyer’s wife. This did not go well with the audiences and many online users even demanded that the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) should sack Little Master as he used to get called during his playing days.

The Caribbean cricketer who is playing for RR in the IPL 2022 left bio-bubble for the birth of his first baby some time ago but now he is back and he was a part of the squad which played against MS Dhoni led CSK.

Shimron Hetmyer came to bat for his team at number six and at that time, RR needed 47 runs of 31 balls to win the match. It was then Sunil Gavaskar started a controversy while commentating as he said, “Hetmyer’s wife delivered; will Hetmyer deliver for the Royals now?”

This comment irked fans and many took to social media to slam the former Indian cricketer. Here are some of the selected reactions:

Earlier, Sunil Gavaskar was in the center of a controversy when he made a comment about Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma. However when the whole matter unfolded, it was found that he said nothing wrong about Anushka and the matter was just blown away unnecessarily.

As far as match and Shimron Hetmyer’s innings are concerned, the West Indian batter managed only 6 runs in 7 deliveries which included a boundary.

The toss was won by Mahi and he asked RR to bowl first. CSK didn’t get a good start as it lost its openers quite early but Moeen Ali played a wonderful knock of 93 runs (57 balls, 13 fours & 3 sixes) and tried to help his team make a big score. However, he didn’t get much support from other batters and the wickets kept on falling regularly. MS Dhoni played a useful innings of 26 runs (28 balls, 1 four & 1 six) and CSK managed to put 150/6 on the score board.

In response, RR chased the target successfully with 5 wickets in hand and 2 balls remaining in its innings with the help of brilliant knocks of Yashasvi Jaiswal (59 runs, 44 balls, 8 fours & 1 six) and Ravichandran Ashwin (40 runs, 23 balls, 2 fours & 3 sixes). R Ashwin was adjudged as the Player of the Match for his performance with bat and the ball (1/28 in 4 overs) as well.

RR has entered the play-offs as it is sitting at the second spot in the points table and it will certainly like to win the IPL trophy second time as it won its first trophy 14 years ago in the inaugural edition of the league which took place in 2008.

What do you think of the comment made by Sunil Gavaskar? Let us know.

Bhushan Kumar Speaks On Why KGF 2, RRR, Pushpa Succeeded While Bollywood Movies Failed Big Time

Bollywood is certainly not having a good time as many Hindi movies including Ranveer Singh starrer “Jayeshbhai Jordaar” and John Abraham starrer “Attack” bombed on the box-office while on the other hand, some southern language movies such as “Pushpa: The Rise”, “RRR” and “KGF 2” have performed exceptionally well in the Hindi speaking belts.

The Hindi moviemakers are trying out to find out the reason behind the success of few southern language flicks on the pan-India level. Recently producer Bhushan Kumar shed some light on this issue and put forth his own opinion in this regard.

Bhushan Kumar is looking forward to get a good opening in Kartik Aaryan and Kiara Advani starrer “Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2” which has released today and hopes that it will bring back the good old days of Bollywood. He was also associated with Prabhas starrer “Radhe Shyam” which failed to impress audiences.

Talking about the success achieved by “Pushpa”, “RRR” and “KGF 2”, Bhushan Kumar says that heroism is working once again in films and if we look at these three flicks, they are complete masala and pure entertainers, neither targeted towards multiplex audiences nor towards massy viewers. He adds that these movies have heroism, action, music, the mother element, etc. just like we used to have in the films of 90s, it’s just that the makers have increased the scale of everything and it is working in their favor.

Bhushan Kumar goes on to say that the flicks movies like “War” and “Tiger Zinda Hai” had all these elements because of which they worked on the box-office and audiences won’t be liking the film if the makers scale down these elements. As per him, movie lovers now want everything on a very big scale whether it is action, comedy or music plus the effective one-liners used in these movies have also played an important role in their success.

“Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2” has got good reviews from trade analysts and as far as the trends are concerned, it seems that the movie is going to get grand opening.

Do you agree with Bhushan Kumar that heroism has come back to the business? Share your views.
