Aaryavir Sehwag, son of legendary Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag, showcased his batting prowess by smashing an extraordinary 297 runs in the Cooch Behar Trophy. Representing Delhi against Meghalaya at the MCA Cricket Ground in Shillong, the young lad came agonizingly close to a triple century befor??e being dismissed.

Meghalaya post a decent start before Delhi responds strongly

The match began with Meghalaya scoring 260 runs in their first innings after electing to bat. On Day 2, Delhi’s top order dominated, with Aaryavir and Arnav S Bugga stitching an impressive 180-run partnership for the opening wicket. Bugga scored a century before departing, while ?Aaryavir continued his onslaught, propelling Delhi to a commanding lead of 208 runs by stumps.

A knock to remember for Aaryavir Sehwag

Aaryavir’s magnificent innings was marked by 51 fours and three sixes, taking just 309 balls to reach his career-best 297. His score now stands as the highest individual total in this edition of the Cooch Behar Trophy, surpassing Uttar Pradesh’s Bhavy Goyal, who scored 273 earlier in the tournament.

Though Aaryavir narrowl??????????????????????????y missed a triple century, his innings set a benchmark for young cricketers in the competition. His dismissal came at the hands of Rathor, leaving him just three runs short of the historic milestone.

“Well played @aaryavirsehwag. Missed a Ferrari by 23 runs. But well done, keep the fire alive and may you score many more daddy hundreds and doubles and triples. Khel jaao.”

A bright future ahead

Aaryavir’s knock not only highlighted his poten?tial but also established him as a young player to watch in Indian cricket. His innings drew widespread praise and added a glorious chapter to the ongoing Cooc?h Behar Trophy.

Ranji Trophy, a prestigious tournament often hailed for its spirit of sportsmanship, was marred by a disgraceful incident involving Delhi fast bowler Navdeep Saini. In a match against Tamil Nadu, Saini’s act to save his team from a certain defeat, have sparked widespread outrage and calls for stricter penalties against his behaviour.

The game, played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi, was a one-sided affair from the outset. Tamil Nadu, led by Baba Aparajith, amassed a formidable total of 674/6 in their first innings, with Sai Sudharsan and Washington Sundar scoring double centuries. Delhi, in response, were bowled out for 266. With the pitch deteriorating, Tamil Nadu enforced a follow-on, hoping to secure a quick victory. Delhi’s batting woes continued, and they were reduced to 161/6 before Saini walked in to bat.

Navdeep Singh’s dramatic collapse on the field

Facing a short-pitched delivery, Saini ducked to avoid the ball, which hit his helmet and rebounded to the wicketkeeper. He signalled to the bowler that he was fine, but then, in a shocking display of dishonest?y, he dramatically collapsed to the ground, clutching?? his head. The physio was summoned, and play was halted.

Saini’s actions were met with disbelief and anger from cricket enthusiasts. They believed that he had intentionally faked the injury to gain time for his team, who were struggling to avoid defeat.

Saini’s action calls for stricter penalties

The incident has reignited the debate about the need for stricter penalties against players who engage in such behaviour. While the BCCI has taken steps to address the issue of poor?? sportsmanship, there is a growing consensus that more needs to be done to prevent such incidents from happening again.

Saini’s blatant attempt to deceive the opposition and the umpires has tarnished his reputation and raised questions about his sportsmanship.

Team India have touched down in Delhi ahead of their much-anticipated second T20I against Bangladesh, set to take place on October 9 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. The Indian squad, fresh from their dominant win in the opening T20I in Gwalior, is eager to continue their strong form as t??hey look to seal the series.

India’s dominating start in the T20I series

The Men in Blue began their T20I campaign in style with a convincing win in the first match held at the Shrimant Madhavrao Scindia Cricket Stadium in Gwalior. India introduced two new talents—pace bowler Mayank Yadav and all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy—who made their international debuts, adding depth to the squa?d.

Notably, India are without several of their regular T20 stars such as Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, and Jasprit Bumrah, all of whom a??re being rested to focus on the ongoing Test season.

Eventful journey from Gwalior to Delhi

The team’s flight from Gwalior to Delhi was filled with excitement. Indian bowling coach Morne Morkel was seen engrossed in his work, scribbling notes in his diary, and playfully hiding them when caught on camera. Head Coach Gautam Gambhir and players such as Riyan Parag, Tilak Verma and Sanju Samson were all smi??les as they received a grand reception upon arriving in Delhi.

Former Indian captain Virat Kohli and wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant have been named in Delhi’s list of probables for the Ranji Trophy 2024-25 season. The Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA) announced the squad on September 24, following a meeting chaired by Gursharan Singh, with selectors K Bhaskar Pillai, Rajeev Vinaik, chief coach Sarandeep Singh, and joint secretary Rajan Manchanda present.

Virat Kohli’s potential return to domestic cricket

This will mark the first time since 2018 that Virat Kohli has been named in Delhi’s probable Ranji squad, signaling a potential return to domestic cricket after a considerable gap. Kohli’s last Ranji Trophy appearance was in the 2012-13 season when he played against Uttar Pradesh following a successful international series against New Zealand. His inclusion could significantly boost Delhi’s chances in the tournament, providing invaluable experience and leadership. However, with his international commitments, particularly the upcoming Test?? series against New Zealand, there remains uncertainty over his participation in significant Ranji matches.

Test commitments

Despite being named in the Ranji squad, both Kohli and Pant face scheduling challenges. The domestic competition kicks off on October 11, with Delhi set to play against Chandigarh. Nevertheless, Kohli and Pant will likely be part of Team India preparing for the Test series against New Zealand, starting on October 16 in Bengaluru. Due to these international commitments, their participation in the early matches remains doubtful. Nevertheless, there’s a possibility that Kohli may feature in later matches, particularly the fixture against Jharkhand, starting on November 13. With Kohli retired from T20Is, and no immediate white-ball commitments, fans may yet see him donning the Delh??i jersey during the 2024-25 season.

Rishabh Pant: Star power boost for Delhi’s Squad

Even with the uncertainty surrounding their participation, the inclusion of Kohli and Pant in the probables list significantly enhances the profile of Delhi’s squad. Rishabh Pant is no stranger to domestic success, having played 17 Ranji Trophy matches since his debut in 2015. He rose to fame during the 2016-17 season when he smashed the fastest century in Ranji Trophy history off just 48 balls against Jharkhand.

Notable inclusions and omissions

The squad also features pacer Navdeep Saini, who has struggled to secure a spot in the national team in recent months, and young talents like Mayank Yadav, Harshit Rana, and Divij Mehra. Nonetheless, one surprising omission is veteran fast bowler Ishant Sharma, who playe??d for Delhi in the last season but has been left out of the probables for the upcoming edition.

Ranji Trophy’s opening match and squad’s fitness Test

Delhi’s Ranji Trophy campaign will start with their clash against Chandigarh on October 11, and a fitness test for the players is scheduled for September 26, 2024. Players currently on international duty, like Kohli and Pant, are exempt from this test. The fitness test ?is crucial for finalizing the team, as the squad will look to leverage both experience and emerging talent to mount a strong challenge in the Ranji Trophy.

Delhi’s 84-member probables squad for Ranji Trophy 2024-25:

Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant, Himmat Singh, Pranshu Vijayan, Anirudh Chowdhary, Kshitiz Sharma, Vaibhav Kandpal, Siddhant Bansal, Samarth Seth, Jonty Sidhu, Siddhant Sharma, Tishant Dabla, Navdeep Saini, Harsh Tyagi, Lakshay Thareja (wk), Sumit Mathur, Shivank Vashisth, Salil Malhotra, Ayush Badoni, Gagan Vats, Rahul S Dagar, Hrithik Shokeen, Mayank Rawat, Anuj Rawat (wk), Simarjeet Singh, Shivam Kumar Tripathi, Kuldip Yadav, Lalit Yadav, Prince Choudhary, Shivam Kishore Kumar, Shivam Gupta (wk), Vaibhav Sharma, Jitesh Singh, Rohit Yadav, Sumit Kumar, Anmol Sharma, Keshav Daba, Sanat Sangwan, Shubham Sharma (wk), Aryan Chaudhar??y, Aryan Rana, Bhagwan Singh, Pranav Rajvanshi (wk), Saurav Dagar, Money Grewal, Kunwar Bidhuri, Nikhil Sangwan, Puneet Chahal, Priyansh Arya, Yash Dhull, Prince Yadav, Harshit Rana, Mayank Yadav, Suyash Sharma, Arpit Rana, Divij Mehra, Sujal Singh, Hardik Sharma, Himanshu Chauhan, Ayush Doseja, Ankit Rajesh Kumar, Dhruv Kaushik, Ankur Kaushik, Krish Yadav, Vansh Bedi, Yash Sehrawat, Vikas Solanki, Rajesh Sharma, Tejasvi Dahiya (wk), Rounak waghela, Manpreet Singh, Rahul Gahlot, Aryan Sehrawat, Shivam Sharma, Siddharth Sharma, Parv Singla, Yogesh Singh, Deepesh Baliyan, Sagar Tanwar, Rishab Rana, Akhil Chaudhary, D??igvesh Rathi, Sarthak Ranjan, Ajay Guliya

In a high-stakes Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 encounter against the Delhi Capitals (DC) at Arun Jaitley Stadium, Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) captain KL Rahul executed a breathtaking juggling catch to dismiss Shai Hope. This stunning effort left the crowd in awe and prompted LSG owner Sanjiv Goenka to rise from his seat and applaud the skipper’s extra??ordinary feat.

Early struggles despite winning the toss

Despite winning the toss and opting to field first, LSG did not immediately capitalize on the decision. An early wicket of Jake Fraser-McGurk provided some momentum, but the partnership between Shai Hope and Abhishek Porel soon stabilized the Capitals�?in?nings. The duo played confidently, steering their team deep into t?he innings as both added 92 runs for the second wicket in just eight overs.

The juggling masterpiece from KL Rahul

The moment of magic came on the third ball of the ninth over, delivered by Ravi Bishnoi. Bowling a well-placed leg-break on a length outside off stump, Bishnoi induced a cut shot from Hope. The ball rocketed towards the cover region where Rahul was stationed. Initially, Rahul grasped the ball but it slipped from his hands, seemingly a missed opportunity. However, displaying remarkable agility and presence of mind, Rahul swiftly followed the deflecting ball and made an acrobatic sideways leap to secure the catch. This incredible display of skill and determ??ination transformed what seemed like a misfield into a spectacular dismissal.

Here’s the video:

Applause from Sanjiv Goenka

Witnessing the rigorous determination and exceptional athleticism of his captain, LSG owner Goenka was all smiles. He stood up and lauded Rahul’s effort, a gesture that highlighted the skipper’s leadership and commitment to the team’s cause. Rahul’s catch was more than just a display of personal brilliance; it was a pivotal moment that galvanized the team. The spectacular dismissal not only boosted LSG’s morale but also underscored Rahul’s exceptional fielding abilities and his dedication to leading by example.

For latest cricket news & updates, visit betvisa68.com.

In the upcoming Match 64 of IPL 2024 between Delhi Capitals (DC) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), both teams are poised for a showdown at the?? Arun ??Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Tuesday (May 14).

This encounter will mark the second face-off between the two sides, with DC emerging victorious in their previous encounter earlier this season by six wickets. As the rematc?h unfolds, both teams will be eager to showcase their strengths and secure a crucial win to bolster their position in the tournament.

DC vs LSG: Head to Head Record:

• Since the introduction of the Lucknow franchise in the tournament in 2022, LSG and DC have crossed paths thrice.
• Among these encounters, LSG holds a complete advantage over DC leading with a margin of 3-1.
• This will be the first encounter between both the sides in the Arun Jaitley Stadium.

Delhi Capitals (DC) Overview:

With six victories in 13 matches, DC ar?e now under pressure to secure a decisive victory in their upcoming game to maintain their ??slim hopes of qualifying for the playoffs. Under the leadership of Rishabh Pant, DC has managed to secure three wins in their last five matches. However, their recent defeat against RCB, where Axar Patel led the side in the absence of Pant, highlighted the challenges they face in maintaining consistency.

DC’s probable playing XI for the IPL 2024 game against LSG:

1. David Warner
2. Jake Fraser-McGurk
3. Abhishek Porel
4. Tristan Stubbs
5. Rishabh Pant (c/wk)
6. Sumit Kumar
7. Abhishek Porel
8. Axar Patel
9. Kuldeep Yadav
10. Anrich Nortje
11. Khaleel Ahmed

A Closure Look:

In the DC lineup, Warner assumes the role of providing stability and seasoned experience at the top of the batting order. Supported by the batting prowess of Fraser-McGurk and Porel and bolstered by Stubbs in the middle order, the team’s batting lineup appears robust. Behind the stumps, Pant takes charge of the wicketkeeping duties, ensuring reliability and solidity.

Tu?rning to the bowlin?g department, DC boasts spin options with the likes of Axar and Kuldeep, who employ their variations skilfully to trouble opposing batters. Nortje spearheads the pace attack with his express pace and knack for picking up early wickets, while Khaleel offers valuable support with his adeptness in swing bowling. Collectively, this DC lineup showcases a blend of talent and depth, positioning them as formidable contenders in the IPL.

Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) Overview:

Heading into this crucial match, LSG are facing a precarious situation after suffering back-to-back losses. To keep their hopes alive in the playoff race, they must emerge victorious in their remaining two matches. Achieving victories in these games would propel them to 16 points on the table. Nevertheless, it’s not just about winning; LSG also needs to significantly improve their Net Run Rate (NRR) to enhance their chances of qualifying for the playoffs.

LSG’s probable playing XI for the IPL 2024 game against DC:

1. KL Rahul
2. Arshin Kulkarni
3. Marcus Stoinis
4. Deepak Hooda
5. Nicholas Pooran
6. Ayush Badoni
7. Krunal Pandya
8. Ravi Bishnoi
9. Naveen-ul-Haq
10. Matt Henry
11. Mohsin Khan

A Closure Look:
