Former Indian all-rounder Yuvraj Singh, renowned? for his remarkable contributions to Indian cricket, recently shared his top three picks fo??r a dream playing XI.

Yuvraj Singh’s achievements: A legacy of triumphs

Yuvraj’s own cricketing career is marked by several significant achievements. He was a key player in India’s triumphs in the T20 World Cup 2007 and the ODI World Cup 2011. His explosive batting, highlighted by his six sixes in an over against Stuart Broad during the 2007 edition of the T20 World Cup, ??remains one of the most iconic moments in cricket history. Yuvraj’s all-round capabilities were also evident in the 2011 editi??on of the World Cup, where he was named Player of the Tournament for his crucial contributions with both bat and ball.

Yuvraj’s bold choice for his dream team

In a conversation with Sportskeeda, Yuvraj was asked to name his top three players for a dream team. His selections were Chris Gayle, AB de Villiers and Jasprit Bumrah, notably omitting high-profile Indian cricketers like Virat Kohli, MS Dhoni and Rohit Sharma. Yuvraj, who shared the field with Bumrah during their time with Team India and the Mumbai Indians in the IPL, is well-acquainted with Bumrah’s journey from a ro??okie to a leading fast bowler. This decision could be surprising for many, given the esteemed careers of the players left out, particularly Dhoni, whose exclusion was particularly startling given his illustrious career and his reputation as one of the best wicketkeeper-batter and captains.

Current endeavors and future prospects

In addition to his surprising picks for a dream team, Yuvraj is reportedly in discussions to become the head coach of the Delhi Capitals (DC) in place of Ricky Ponting who recently ended his coaching stint. His transition from a celebrated player to a potential coaching role reflects his continued involvement in the sport and his desire to contribute to cricket in new ways. Yuvraj’s strateg??ic insights a??nd deep understanding of the game position him as a strong candidate for the role, promising to bring valuable experience to the Delhi franchise.

Former South African all-rounder Chris Morris has unveiled his ultimate T20 dream team, a lineup that is nothing short of sensational. Packed with firepower, class, and sheer terror for bowlers and batters alike, this XI is a testament to Morris’ astute cricketing mind.

A fearsome opening duo

Starting at the top, Morris has picked none other than India‘s hitman Rohit Sharma. The Indian captain, known for his elegant strokeplay and ability to dominate any bowling attack, is the perfect choice to open the innings. Joining Rohit is the legendary Chris Gayle, the ‘Universe Boss’ who has terrorized bowlers for years with his powerful hitting. Their combined ability to launch sixes at will makes them a fearsome prospect for any opposition.

Strong middle order to remember

The middle order is stacked with world-class talent. AB de Villiers, the South African maestro known for his innovative shots and ability to change the course of a game, is a must-have in any T20 XI. Virat Kohli, the modern-day batting icon, brings his unmatched consistency and ability to chase down any target. Kieron Pollard, the West Indian powerhouse, provides explosive finishing abilities, while MS Dhoni, the cool-headed captain?? and wicketkeeper, adds stability and experience to the batting?? lineup.

Lethal bowling attack

Morris’ bowling attack is equally impressive. Hardik Pandya, the Indian all-rounder, offers a mix of aggressive batting and effective seam bowling. Sunil Narine, the West Indies’ spin all-rounder, brings his mystery spin and aggressive batting to the team. The Indian speedster Jasprit Bumrah, known for his pinpoint accuracy, is a nightmare for batters. Lasith Malinga, the Sri Lankan speedster with his unique slingy action, adds another dimension to the pace attack. Finally, Brett Lee, the Australian fast bowler known for his raw pace and aggression, rounds out the bow?ling lineup.

A dream team indeed

Morris has picked his all-time T20 XI in a video shared by Sportskeeda on their Instagram handle. His all-time T20 XI is a dream team in every sense of the word. With such a formidable lineup, it’s no wonder that the former Proteas pacer is confident in their ability to dominate any T20 competition. This team boasts a perfect blend of power hitting, technical brilliance, and world-class bowling, making them a force to be reckoned with in the shortest format of the game.

Here’s Chris Morris�?all-time T20 XI: Rohit S?harma, Chris Gayle, AB de Villiers, Virat Kohli, Kieron Pollard, MS Dhoni, Hardik Pandya, Sunil Narine, Jasprit Bumrah, Lasith Malinga, and Brett? Lee.

Anuj Rawat, the talented wicketkeeper-batter from Delhi, showcased his growing stature in Match 20 of the Delhi Premier League (DPL) 2024. Representing East Delhi Riders, Rawat played a breat??htaking knock of 121 not out off just 66 balls, a??nchoring his team’s innings and setting a daunting target for the opposition.

Anuj Rawat’s explosive century sets the stage

Known for his consistent performances in the Indian Premier League (IPL) with Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), Rawat demonstrated his ability to rise to the occasion in the DPL. Starting his innings with measured caution, he re?ached his fifty in 38 balls, but what followed was an exhibition of pure power-hitting.

In a display of aggressive intent, Rawat took only 21 more balls to score his next fifty, smashing 11 sixes in the process. His century was a blend of precision and power, reached on the second ball of the 19th over, followed by two consecutive sixes that underscored his dominance at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. Immediately after the century, Rawat copied the celebration of RCB stalwart Chris Gayle. He removed his helmet, and balanced the helmet on ?the bat handle.

Sujal Singh’s power-packed knock complements Rawat

Not to be overshadowed, Sujal Singh, Rawat’s opening partner, played a scintillating innings of his own, scoring 108 not out off just 57 balls. Sujal’s knock was equally crucial to East Delhi Riders’ massive total, as he kept pace with Rawat, matching him shot for shot. His innings included seven fours and nine towering sixes, reflecting his ability to dismantle the opposition’s bowling attack. Together, Rawat and Sujal formed an unbreakable partnership, amassing 241 runs without losing a wicket—a feat that now stands as the second-highest opening partnership in T20 history. Sujal’s aggressive approach provided the perfect balance to Rawat’s calculated onslaught, making their partnership a nightmare for Purani Dilli 6‘s bowlers.

Vansh Bedi’s heroics fall short in Purani Dilli-6’s chase

In their response, Dilli-6 faced a steep challenge and despite a valiant effort by middle-order batter Vansh Bedi, they fell short of the target. Bedi played a remarkable knock of 96 runs off jus??t 41 balls, nearly single-handedly keeping his team in the hunt. His innings was marked by explosive hitting, as he took on the Delhi Riders�?bowlers with fearless intent.

However, despite Bedi’s heroics, Dilli-6 ultimately fell 26 runs short of the target, unable to overcome the pressure of chasing such a massive total. Harsh Tyagi emerged as the most effective bowler for the Riders, taking three key wickets and applying the brakes on Purani Dilli-6’s chase. Bhagwan Singh and Mayank Rawat chipped in with two wickets each, while skipper Himmat Singh added a??nother, ensuring that Delhi Riders secu??red a comprehensive victory.

In a match that saw India succumb to a humiliating defeat, there was a glimmer of individual brilliance as Rohit Sharma joined West Indies legend Chris Gayle in an elite club. Indian captain etched his name in the annals of ODI cricket history by equall?ing the record for the second most sixes in the format.

Rohit Sharma equals Gayle’s six-hitting phenomenon

Rohit, known for his penchant for hitting the ball out of the park, smashed his way to 331 sixes in ODIs, equalling Gayle’s record for the second-highest number of sixes in the format. Only Shahid Afridi stands ahead with 351 maximums.

The Mumbai batter, who has been in sublime form, was expected to surpass Gayle’s tally in the third ODI against Sri Lanka. Although he fell short of the target by one-six, his achievement was noneth?eless remarkable. Hi??s ability to clear the boundary with such ease has made him one of the most feared batters in the world.

Rohit’s brief cameo in the third ODI

In a thrilling chase of 249, Rohit played a blistering cameo of 35 runs off just 20 balls. Although India fell short in their pursuit, the skipper’s innings was studded with one six, bringing him level with Gayle on the all-time list.

Sri Lanka dominate India

Despite Rohit’s heroics, India’s performance in the match was far from impressive. The hosts produced a clinical display in all departments of the game to dismantle the Indian batting lineup. Sri Lanka’s bowlers were spot on, exploiting the Indian weakness against spin and seam alike.

The Indian batting crumbled under pressure, with the top order failing to get going. The middle order offered little resistance as the team was bundled out for a paltry total. The collapse triggered widespread criticism of the team’s batting approach and selection.

Sri Lanka, on the other hand, chased down the target with relative ease, thanks to solid contributions from their top order. The victory not only gave them a series win but also exposed the chinks in India’s armour.

A career defined by big hits

Rohit’s career has been synonymous with big-hitting. His ability to effortlessly clear the ropes has made him a nightmare for bowlers around the world. This latest achievement further solidifies his status as one of the most destructive batters in the game’s history.

As the Mumbaikar continu??es to defy age and expectations, cricke?t fans eagerly await the day when he surpasses Afridi to claim the outright record for most sixes in ODIs.

The defeat has raised serious questions about India’s ODI team and their preparations for the upcoming ICC Champions Trophy 2025. With the tournament just around the corner, the team management will have to address the issues plaguing the batting unit and find a way to improve their overall performance.

Rohit’s achievement, while commendable, could not mask the team’s overall failure. The Indian cricket fans will be hoping for a quick turnaround as the team looks to regain its momentum and confidence.

Former Indian cricketer Parthiv Patel recently shared his insights on the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) team during his stint with them, highlighting the team’s focus on individual players rather than a cohesive unit. Patel commented on the podcast “Cyrus Says,” where he discussed the team’s dynamics and the reasons behind their Indian Premier League (IPL) title drought.

Individualism at RCB

During his time with RCB, Patel observed that the team’s focus was primarily on the performances of individual players rather than the team as a whole. He noted that the team was “always about individuals” and that the legendary trio of Virat Kohli, AB de Villiers, and Chris Gayle dominated the team’s attention. This individualistic approach, according to Patel, contributed significantly to the team’s struggles in winning the Indian Premier League (IPL) title.
“I played for RCB, I’ve have been there for four years. The team is always about individuals it’s not about the team. And then everyone will come out of that team will say that,” the 39-year-old said on Cyrus Says podcast.

Impact on team dynamics

Patel’s comments suggest that the team’s emphasis on individual players created a culture where the collective effort was often overlooked. He believes this hindered the team’s ability to function as a cohesive unit, leading to a lack of synergy and, ultimately, poor performance. The team’s reliance on a few star players meant that the rest of the squad often felt marginalized, which affected their morale and motivation.
“Because it’s all about Virat Kohli, AB de Villiers, and Chris Gayle when I was in the team. So they were given the kind of special preference always so there the team culture was not there you can see clearly when they are playing, and that is the reason why they haven’t won the trophies. That’s the fact,” Patel added.

Here’s the video

IPL title drought

The RCB team has struggled to win the IPL title despite having some of the best players in the world. Patel attributes this to the team’s inability to gel together as a unit. He believes that the team’s focus on individual performances rather than collective effort has been a major factor in their IPL title drought. The veteran’s insights highlight the importance of team dynamics and the need for a balanced approach to ensure success in team sports.

Criticism of RCB’s culture

Patel’s comments also critiqued the team’s culture during his time with RCB. He believes that the team’s focus on individual players created an environment where the team’s overall performance suffered. Patel’s criticism is not limited to the team’s performance but also extends to the culture within the team, which he believes was not conducive to success.

West Indies stamped their authority in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 by securing a spot in the Super Eight stage with a nail-biting 13-run victory over New Zealand at the Brain Lara Cricket Academy in Trinidad & Tobago. The match was defined by Sherfane Rutherford‘s explosive innings of 68 runs, supported by stellar bowling performances from Gudakesh Motie and Alzarri Joseph, who dismantled the Blackcaps batting lineup to seal the cr??ucial win.

Nicholas Pooran surpasses Chris Gayle milestone

In a historic moment for West Indies cricket, Nicholas Pooran etched his name in the annals by surpassing the legendary Chris Gayle as the leading run-scorer in T20 Internationals for the West Indies. Pooran, batting at No.3, approached the crease just two runs shy of surpassing Gayle’s T20I run tally, 1899 runs, for the West Indies. He achieved this milestone with a streaky boundary off Trent Boult, but his stay at the crease was brief.

Attempting to accelerate, Pooran aimed to dispatch a short-pitched delivery over the leg side boundary. However, his timing faltered, resulting in a mishit that Devon Conway comfortably pouched. This dismissal left the West Indies struggling at 20/2 after 3.5 overs. Although the si??de recovered well eventually.

Pooran’s innings, comprising 17 runs off 12 balls with three boundaries, highlighted his aggressive intent despite the outcome. With 1914 runs overall in 91 T20Is at an average of 25.52, Pooran is on track to become the first West Indies batter to achieve 2000 T20I runs.

During his T20I career, he scored two centuries and 14 half-centuries, with his highest individual score being 117. Known for his explosive batting and charismatic presence on the field, Gayle continues to inspire cricketers worldwide despite his absence from competitive cricket.

Currently, Babar Azam, the captain of Pakistan, holds the record for the highest runs in T20I cricket. He has scored a total of 4,113 runs at an impressive aver??age of 40.72 and a strike rate of 129.46. Babar has achieved three centuries and 36 half-centuries in T20Is, with his highest score bein??g 122.

Key moments in the West Indies vs New Zealand encounter

New Zealand’s bowling attack, led by Trent Boult (3/16), Tim Southee (2/21), and Lockie Ferguson (2/27), posed significant challenges, yet it was West Indies’ collective effort with the ball ultimately that secured their path to the Super Eight stage of the tournament.

Toss and strategies

As the match began, Pakistan’s captain Babar won the toss and opted to bowl first. His choice was influenced by the weather conditions and a pitch that retained some dampness after a light drizzle.

Indian captain Rohit, a??lthough he would have chosen to bowl first as well, appeared confident and ready at the toss. He emphasized the importance of adapting to the conditions and maintaining momentum from previous games.

“Would’ve bowled first too. We need to assess how conditions play and come up with an idea of what a good score is. Those games have helped us assess conditions here. We’ve spoken about what we need to do as a batting unit to get a good score and then we’ve got the bowling unit to defend. Every game is important in a World Cup, you can’t just show up. Anything can happen. We’re sticking to the same XI,” Rohit said at the toss.
