Following the defeat of Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 Eliminator showdown against Rajasthan Royals (RR) in Ahmedabad, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) fast bowler Tushar Deshpande took to Instagram to poke fun at RCB’s defeat.

Tushar Deshpande trolls Royal Challengers Bengaluru

CSK supporters found themselves in disbelief following RCB’s victory over the reigning champions at the Chinnaswamy Stadium, which ultimately led to CSK’s elimination from the tournament.

This outcome appears to have fueled a sense of resentment among CSK fans towards both the Royal Challengers team and their supporters. As RCB’s journey in the competition concluded on Wednesday, Tushar, like many others, could not resist poking fun at them.

A meme page posted a picture of a Bengaluru railway station with a board written ‘Bengaluru Cant’. Fans took a dig at it and connected it with RCB’s loss, exaggerating the meaning of the board to ‘can not’, emphasizing that RCB can not win the IPL trophy. Tushar shared the same post on his Instagram story and later deleted it.

During Match 61 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 between Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) at the iconic MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Sunday (May 12), Tushar Deshpande seized the spotlight with a remarkable display of athleticism. In a pivotal moment, he executed a sublime sliding catch to send the formidable Jos Buttler back to the pavilion.

Breakthrough by Simarjeet Singh

RR captain Sanju Samson won the toss and elected to bat first, setting the stage for an intense battle at the Chepauk. The opening duo of Yashasvi Jaiswal and Buttler provided a solid start, stitching together a promising partnership of 43 runs. However, their resilience was short-lived as Simarjeet Singh claimed t??he crucial breakthrough by dismissing Jaiswal for 24 runs, prov??iding CSK with a much-needed breakthrough.

Tushar Deshpande’s remarkable catch

Just six runs later, Deshpande showcased his prowess with a remarkable effort, sending Buttler back to the pavilion as well. The English star, batting on 21 runs off 25 balls, opted for an unconventional shot in an attempt to accelerate the scoring rate. Unfortunately, the gamble didn’t pay off as he lost his wicket, altering the dynamics of the game.

On the very first delivery of the ninth over, Simarjeet delivered the ball outside the off stump. Sensing the pressure of the escalating scoring rate, Buttler attempted an audacious lap shot. Nevertheless, he found himself unable to position himself optimally and couldn’t extend as far across as he had intended. Consequently, the ball veered towards the deep backward square leg region. Demonstrating exceptional agility and anticipation, Deshpande swiftly moved to his right, navigating around the bend, before expertly clasping onto the chance with precision and composure.

Key contributions from Dhruv Jurel and Riyan Parag

After the dismissal of Buttler, RR attempted to accelerate their scoring rate on a slow and sluggish Chennai pitch. Nonetheless, they struggled to find their rhythm and managed to reach only 141/5 in their allotted 20 overs. Despite the challenging conditions, Riyan Parag (47) and Dhruv Jurel (28) displayed some resistance with the bat, smashing a few boundaries that eluded the disciplined Chennai bow??lers. Simarjeet emerged as t??he most successful bowler, claiming 3 wickets, while Deshpande also contributed with 2 crucial dismissals.

Tushar Deshpande emerged as the standout performer for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in their ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 clash against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Monday (April 8). In a match characterized by a slow and sluggish Chepauk track, the CSK bowlers capitalized on the conditions, causing the f?amed Kolkata team to falter w??hile batting first.

Tushar Deshpande shines for Chennai Super Kings

Deshpande’s exceptional bowling display saw him claim three crucial wickets, playing a pivotal role in restricting the free-scoring KKR to a modest score of 137/9 in their allotted 20 overs. Making Ruturaj Gaikwad‘s decision to bowl first even more impactful, Deshpande struck immediately, dismissing the dangerous Phil Salt on the very first delivery of the game.

Ravindra Jadeja’s key contributions

Despite brief resistance from Sunil Narine and Ankurish Raghuvanshi, who momentarily challenged the CSK bowlers, the introduction of Ravindra Jadeja turned the tide in favor of the home team. Jadeja’s crucial breakthroughs disrupted KKR’s momentum, leading to the downfall of Narine and Venkatesh Iyer in quick succession.

Deshpande’s crucial wickets in death overs

With hopes pinned on Rinku Singh and Andre Russell, KKR aimed to revive their innings, but both fell short of expectations. Despite the Chepauk crowd’s anticipation as Russell stepped in to bat, he failed to make an impact, eventually departing after a run-a-ball 10. Deshpande’s influence extended to the death overs, where he showcased his mettle. In the 17th over, he conceded a mere four runs and clinched the vital wicket of Rinku. Continuing his stellar performance, Deshpande struck again in the 19th over, removing the formidable Russell from the equation.

Under pressure: Deshpande’s resilience against Andre Russell

In the pivotal moments of the match, Deshpande faced pressure after conceding a wide and being hit for a boundary on the first ball of his over. However, he displayed resilience and skill, delivering a crucial wicket on the very next ball. With a well-executed delivery, Deshpande induced a misjudgment from the in-form West Indies allrounder, Russell, who ended up skying the ball straight into the waiting hands of Daryl Mitchell at long-on.

The dismissal of Russell was a significant breakthrough for CSK, shifting the momentum firmly in their favour. Recognizing Deshpande’s impactful contribution in the death overs, CSK’s bowling coach, Dwayne Bravo, rose from his seat in the dugout to applaud the young bowler’s performance.

Emulating Dwayne Bravo’s celebration: A gesture of gratitude

In a touching display of camaraderie and appreciation, the fast-bowler, Deshpande, acknowledged the pivotal role played by the team’s bowling coach, Bravo. Deshpande paid homage to Bravo’s mentorship and guidance by emulating the celebration famously associated with the former West Indies great. This gesture not only highlighted Deshpande’s gratitude towards Bravo but also underscored the strong bond and mutual respect shared among the players and coaching staff of the CSK.

In a monumental moment during the Ranji Trophy 2024 quarterfinal clash against Baroda on February 27, the Mumbai duo of Tanush Kotian and Tushar Deshpande etched their names in cricketing histor?y. They became the first No. 10-11 pair in the overa??ll history of the Ranji Trophy to score centuries.

A rare occurrence in First-Class cricket: Last two batters scored hundreds

This remarkable achievement is only the second occurrence in the annals of first-class cricket, with the last two batters in a lineup scoring hundreds. The previous instance dates back to 1946 when Chandu Sarwate (124) and Shute Banerjee (121) accomplished this rare feat for India against Surrey at The Oval.

Heroic contributions from both batters for Mumbai

In a display of extraordinary resilience and skill, No. 10 batter Kotian showcased his prowess by remaining unbeaten with a score of 120. On the other end, Deshpande, batting at No. 11, played a ?brilliant innings and was the last wicket to fall, amassing 123 runs.

Their remarkable partnership propelled Mumbai’s second innings total from 337/ 9 to a commanding 569 all out. Mumbai’s monumental effort set a daunting target of 606 runs for Baroda which the side failed to conquered on the last day as the match ended on a draw with Baroda score of 121/3.

Dazzling display of batting prowess

Kotian and Deshpande, both prolific with the bat, struck 10 fours each during their innings. Kotian achieved his century first off 115 balls, while Deshpande reached the three-figure mark in 112 deliveries. Both batters faced 129 balls, exhibiting resilience and determination. Notably, Deshpande’s aggressive approach saw him hitting an impressive 8 sixes, overshadowing Kotian’s 4.

Historic partnership comes to an end

The monumental partnership between Kotian and Deshpande met its conclusion when Deshpande, after a magnificent innings, was caught by Lukman Meriwala off the bowling of Ninad Rathwa. This extraordinary 232-run stand between Kotian and Deshpande now stands as the second-highest 10th-wicket partn?ership in the storied history of the Ranji Trophy.

Falling just short of the record: Mumbai duo’s remarkable stand

Despite their heroics, Kotian and Deshpande fell agonizingly short of equaling the 233-run record set by Ajay Sharma and Maninder Singh. The Delhi duo achieved this historic feat during the 1991-92 Ranji season in a semifinal match against Mumbai at the Wankhede Stadium. Sharma’s outstanding knock of 259* and Singh’s contribution of 78 propelled Delhi to victory, securing the game through the first-innings lead.

Here’s how Twitter reacted:

Is this the first time?????????????????????????? that a number 10 and 11 batter have made 100 ‘s in an innings?

Tushar Deshpande and Tanush Kotian have just cracked 100s for Mumbai in the Ranji Quarters against Baroda. #mumbaivsbaroda #ranjitropby
