^^ When the likes of Rohi, Kohli and Jadeja are in the lineup then you can't fit fresh faces in the squad.

Squad looks spin heavy and i am thinking about what would be playing XI. Jadeja and Axar won't play together, similarly, Chahal and Kuldeep won't feature together as well.

This might be the final run of those three veterans in ICC events.

Three of the MI players who expected to be in playing XI of WC got out cheaply.

Exclusion of Rinku can't be justified at all, BCCI made a big error in picking the finsiher role player and 4 men spin attack looks unnecessary.

Indian squad for T20 World Cup announced

As expected Virat Kohli, Sanju Samson, Rishab Pant are part of the team. Confused to see Hardik Pandya as a VC whereas he has been out of form in IPL 2024 and no KL Rahul in the squad.

I was expecting some fresh face in this ICC series, most of the names seen in this squad are out of form. For example Hardik Pandya, Arshdeep Sing, Rohit Sharma (he has to be included as he was announced the captain long back), Virat Kohli (SR is terrible for T20 class). SKY has not been that efficient after his injury and Avesh Khan again? What prompted the selectors to again include him as a probable? I doubt this team has anything to offer and trust me the Mumbai chief selector has gone nuts.

When India won the 2007 T20 World Cup, it was a new team filled with players who had a strong desire to win. However, the current team for the 2024 World Cup seems to have a different focus. Many of the players are more interested in securing their earnings for the upcoming IPL season than winning the tournament. I believe that Ajit Agarkar, the team selection committee member, has either lost his mind or is being paid by the franchise to select these players. Additionally, there is a considerable number of cricket players who have made Mumbai their home.

Happy with WC squad and glad they didnt go back to kl and DK. I'd have like to add Rinku in 15 men's squad but can understand why he's not there ( fixed spot for Rohit and Kohli).

Abhishek Sharma was another worthy candidate for the backup opener but guess management still backing Gill.

^^ IMO It was actually a correct decision to bowl first because dew did come hard during 2nd inning.

Luckily for CSK, their bowlers, especially Jadeja manage to keep things tight with the wet ball. This is a tough thing to do and you need a ton of practice and there is no guarantee that it'll come off on any given day.

Jadeja is a specialist in spin bowling, if he doesn't contribute with the bat he contributes with his spin bowling. Tushar Deshpande was the main reason why SRH got wasted on that day he took 4 wickets in that match.

^^ SRH turning out to be South Africa of IPL. In the last ODI WC, the latter were also ridiculously dominating when batting first and all lol & giggles while chasing the target.

Their batting style is also more suited for setting a target, instead of chasing when scoreboard pressure is on.

They dominate when they bat first, they collapse when chasing the target. Still they won the toss and choose to bowl first thinking they will easily chase the target set by CSK. The nightmare started when the CSK captain, Rituraj started to time the ball but unfortunately sucummed at 98 runs. He might have gotten overwhelmed with his timing and over confident with his abilities. The good news is that out of all the Indian batting prospects Shivam Dubey is still hitting the ball with full power and getting sixes. SRH can still make it into the playoffs if they don't make such mistakes in their next game.

Today LSG takes on MI and this match is very crucial for them as if they lose they might not qualify for the playoffs. MI if they win won't help them as they are at the bottom of the points table. But, they can spoil the ranking on the points table and that will make it easy for SRH.

Apart from RCB everyone has their own fate of getting into top 4 in their hands. And RCB might have an outside chance of they win their remaining 4 matches with great NRR and other team results might favour them.

My top 4 as of now, RR, SRH, KKR and CSK.

CSK vs SRH is live at the moment, probably the deciding match of their playoff chances.

CSK started slow, and I don't know why Rahane is still given chance when he is clearly not in the form not just in IPL ever since Ranchi.

I also feel that these four should easily go into the playoffs but I think SRH's weak point is chasing runs. They again got defeated by CSK under pressure to get 200-odd runs. The problem with their batters is that they bat well when they want to create a target for the opponent team but they lack the ability to chase. Flat pitches have made it easy for batters to bat this year. CSK vs SRH again was a batting paradise for the team that won the toss.

Which other teams do you think will be able to qualify for the play offs. I feel KKR has a good chance to qualify with thier top order batters playing very good as of now. The bowling and fielding is a concern but they can work with that to improve it.

Sunrisers Hyderabad Vs Chennai Super Kings

Sunrisers Hyderabad won the toss and decided to fold and we already know whether Sunrisers made the right decision for today's match. Analyzing the past matches, it can be seen that Sunrisers Hyderabad have scored more than 250 runs in most of their matches. But in today's match, if Chennai Super Kings cannot give Sunrisers Hyderabad a target of more than 200 runs, the chances of winning the match will be very low. The match was just played and Chennai Super Kings collected 13 runs after 2 overs. However, in today's match, the collection of Chennai Super Kings must be above 200 runs, otherwise the match with Sunrisers Hyderabad will be more likely to lose.

RCB is so deep in the point table that they will need to every match to secure their position for the playoffs. Looking at the way Virat Kohli has been batting it is again the attitude to get a 50 rather than getting his team to win the match. He has now become a yesteryear batter who at the end of their career was more concerned about getting records. The reason is to stay in the limelight, but only a few like MSD cared about the trophies. Rohit Sharma followed him and now we can see why is still important whereas he is not at the top of the number of runs he has scored for a few years now in IPL.

Lol 😆 they are making a comeback and they are doing the right thing. Virat again played the anchor role for his team, he might haven't been able to contribute as Will Jacks did with his superb innings. But, he was their when his team needed him and that what matters as it is the KOACH who is backing a new batter and motivating him to bat well. That is what he did while being on the pitch with Jack.

You were right about RCB winning with the help of Kohli in chasing a big total. It is now evident that the pitch curators are making it easier for the batsmen to score big runs by ensuring perfect timing of the ball, resulting in frequent boundaries. However, Kohli seemed to be more focused on holding his orange cap as the top run-scorer rather than contributing towards the team's victory. It was disappointing to see him play a mediocre innings and only aim for another half-century to add to his records.

RCB batsman Jakes scored 100 runs off 41 balls. The batsman showed great interest in the match and added runs with effort and struggle. Apart from him, Virat Kohli scored 70 runs off 44 balls and he also worked hard in the match. GT batsmen set a target of 200 in 20 overs which was very good. But the RCB batsmen set a target of 206 in 16 overs and won the match. Had Virat Kohli and Jacks not worked so hard and struggled, they could have won this match very easily.GT bowlers need to work hard and struggle so that they can perform well in the next matches.RCB batsmen and bowlers also showed good performance in the match.

They won brother but they still cannot make into the playoffs.

RCB is batting now and I hope Virat goes on the demolition mode if he wants his team to come up on the point table. They should end up in a decent position on the point table as they are in the bottom and before the playoffs. The most important question is that can RCB win 2 in a row?

Another 200+ target and now it looks like it has become common in IPL 2024 to get those runs. As expected Sai Sudarshan has been consistent this year with his batting, I never expected Shahrukh Khan to bat so well. I am assuming he might be another all-rounder in the making, again the age that these guys are in does not look like they will be playing much longer. He is already 28 years old another 10 years max if he stays fit like a few players we have in the Indian team.

There are too many runs that are being scored in this year of IPL. It now looks like any team can easily get to 250 or more runs, looks like the pitches are being created to help the batters. There should be some healthy competition between the batters and the bowlers. I liked the match between RR and LSG more than the first one as the bowlers were getting help in the second game from the pitch. It was the batters who had to play sensibly in that match to get those runs on the scoreboard. Sanju Samson has been in good form it seems as he has been batting well this year and is no longer afraid to play the risky shots. His team is at the top of the point table and they have lost only 1 match till now, they will surely make it to the playoffs.

Technically any team that win 8 matches will end up in top 4, so they are already qualified for it and now their Target will be no 1 or 2 in the points table that will give extra chance in case of losing one playoff.

Flat pitches,

Small boundaries.

Impact player rule

Which are turning this game into the favour of batters but for the longevity of game it should be fair for both or else IPL might lose its charm.

Seeing 250+ score can be entertaining but what can be the dramatic thriller is defending 160.

Yeah, technically they have already qualified for the playoffs. Sanju Samson was incredible yesterday and not to forget Jurel was their to support him. I think the impact player rule should be removed and the curators should start working on good pitches. It is becoming monotonous now with the ease these batters are going after the bowlers.

Which other teams do you think will be able to qualify for the play offs. I feel KKR has a good chance to qualify with thier top order batters playing very good as of now. The bowling and fielding is a concern but they can work with that to improve it.

I saw him in BBL, he was good there, guess DC management didn't that's why they didn't have him play in first several matches otherwise they would have won more.

Apart from the Indian Premier League (IPL), I have not watched any other franchise league because I am least interested in them since they are nothing like the IPL. However, it is good to see a young talent like him tearing apart those bowlers. He is undoubtedly a great discovery for the Delhi Capitals, but how long he will remain a part of the team is questionable. I recall Shane Watson being noticed by the Australian Cricket Board after he played similarly in the IPL. There are others as well, but this young player, with his abilities, will undoubtedly secure his spot in the Australian team if he continues to bat in the same way.
