The Indian batter Shubman Gill has a huge fan following on the social media platforms but his social media accounts were flooded with hate and abusive messages after the match between Gujarat Titans and Royal Challengers Bangalore. This was the last league match for both the teams, though the result of this match would have had no effect on GT’s chances of playing in playoffs, it was a must win match for RCB for entering the playoffs. The match was played at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru, and after winning the toss, GT chose to bowl first. Though GT bowlers bowled very well, Virat Kohli stood strongly against them and scored his second century of the season to help his team in posing the total of 197/5 on the score board. However, Shubman Gill out-shadowed Virat Kohli’s performance by scoring a century at a higher strike rate and helped his team in winning the match with 5 balls remaining in their innings. This didn’t go well with some RCB fans who started trolling and abusing n...

The four times champion Chennai Super Kings has entered the finals of the IPL for the tenth time after defeating Gujarat Titans by 15 runs in the first match of the playoffs. The match was played yesterday at MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai, and after winning the toss, GT skipper Hardik Pandya decided to bowl first. CSK got a steady start as openers Ruturaj Gaikwad (60 runs, 44 balls, 7 fours & 1 six) and Devon Conway (40 runs, 34 balls, 4 fours) produced a partnership of 87 runs for the first wicket. While Devon Conway was a little rough, Ruturaj Gaikwad was absolutely smooth in playing his shots. However, GT made a comeback by dismissing them and the batters who came after them played cameos but were not able to make big scores. Ajinkya Rahane and Ambati Rayudu scored 17-17 runs each in almost same number of balls, Ravindra Jadeja played a useful innings of 22 runs (16 balls, 2 fours) and helped his team in posting a competitive total of 172/7 in the stipulated 20 overs. GT lo...

The Indian cricketer Virat Kohli is not just a cricket icon but he is an inspiration for many in terms of fitness, excellence, persistence and determination. Virat is undoubtedly India’s best batter of the current times who has several records in his name and his success rate as the skipper of the Indian team has been impeccable as well. There is no denying the fact that the Indian cricket team has performed superbly under Virat Kohli’s captaincy and has won various bilateral series both in India and away but they failed in winning an ICC trophy under his leadership. The same thing has happened in the IPL as well, Virat Kohli has been associated with Royal Challengers Bangalore since the inaugural edition of 2008 and has led the team from 2013 to 2021 but RCB hasn’t won the title even once over the years. In this IPL as well, RCB failed to make it to the playoffs despite Virat Kohli performing brilliantly for his team. King Kohli as his fans call him smashed 2 back-to-back centuries ...

The Indian cricketer Shubman Gill who is playing for Gujarat Titans in the IPL 2023 is certainly the future of Indian cricket and the manner in which he has performed in the IPL 2023 proves that he is a player who can win matches for his team single-handedly. Shubman Gill’s knock of 104 runs not out against Royal Challengers Bangalore in the last match which was played at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru, played an important role in knocking the Bangalore franchise out of the tournament. This disappointed the RCB fans to such an extent that they started slamming not just Shubman Gill but his sister Shahneel Gill as well. Shahneel Gill was present in the stadium for cheering her brother and his team Gujarat Titans and after the match, she made a post with the caption, “An incredible day spent with the most gorgeous people”.

The IPL team Gujarat Titans may have made their IPL debut in the last season only but they not just dominated majority of the teams but they also won their first title in their debut season and if we talk about this season, then they are again dominating the tournament with 10 wins in their 14 matches and have entered the playoffs comfortably. There is no denying the fact that the team is full of talented players and Hardik Pandya’s captaincy has also been on mark but there is one more person who has played an important role in the success of Gujarat Titans; we are talking about their head coach Ashish Nehra. Ashish Nehra is quite a funny character as per those who have played with him and know him not just as a player but as a human being as well. Recently the Aussie cricketer David Warner appeared on a show and talked about Nehra’s coaching style. Sunrisers Hyderabad won their only IPL title in 2016 under the leadership of David Warner and Ashish Nehra was an important part of t...

The IPL team Sunrisers Hyderabad had a nightmarish IPL as they ended at the bottom of the points table with just 4 wins in the 14 matches and one of the biggest reasons of their failure was their bowling. SRH or Orange Army is usually known for their bowling attack but in this season, their bowling was lackluster and their sensational pacer Umran Malik who created waves in the international community as well because of his fierce bowling also failed in taking wickets for his team. Umran Malik took 22 wickets in the last season but in the IPL 2023, he took only 5 wickets in the 8 matches that he played and he was criticized for his poor bowling performances by the former cricketers and cricket experts. Recently, the former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag appeared on a cricket show on which he talked about Umran Malik’s bowling. As per Viru paaji, the problem with Umran Malik’s bowling is that his length keeps on changing as he is not much experienced as of now. Nawab of Najafgarh sa...

The IPL team Royal Challengers Bangalore once again failed in fulfilling its dream of winning the IPL trophy as it lost the must-win match against Gujarat Titans on 21 May 2023 which was played at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bangalore. RCB is one of those few franchises which are playing the IPL since 2008 but it hasn’t been able to win a title even once in 16 seasons despite the fact that RCB has played some big names of the cricket world. Many cricket experts feel that the biggest reason behind RCB’s continuous failure is its weak middle-order and this year also, RCB’s middle-order was its weak link. RCB performed well in all the matches in which 2 of its top 3 (Virat Kohli, Faf du Plessis and Glenn Maxwell) played well but its middle-order turned out to be a big disappointment and failed in performing whenever the team needed them to score. Dinesh Karthik, the wicketkeeper-batsman, also failed to perform in this season as he managed to score only 140 runs in 14 innings at a strike ra...

RCB’s exit from the IPL 2023 once again gave the chance to Afghani cricketer Naveen-ul-Haq to take a jibe at the Indian cricketer Virat Kohli as RCB lost the chance to enter the playoffs after getting defeated by Gujarat Titans by 6 wickets in the match which was played yesterday at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru. Virat Kohli and Naveen-ul-Haq who is playing for Lucknow Super Giants in the IPL 2023 had a brawl during the match between RCB and LSG which was played on 1 May at the Ekana Sports City, Lucknow. Later on, Virat got engaged in an ugly spat with Gautam Gambhir as well who is currently serving as the mentor of LSG and the BCCI slapped a fine of 100 percent match fees on both Kohli and Gambhir and 50 percent match fees on Naveen-ul-Haq. Since then, LSG pacer has been taking digs at Virat Kohli by making cryptic posts and after RCB lost the match to GT, Naveen-ul-Haq posted a video of a comedian laughing. Though Naveen mentioned neither Virat Kohli nor RCB, still the Indian...

The Indian cricketer Virat Kohli was in superb form in the IPL 2023 but still his IPL team Royal Challengers Bangalore failed in making it to the playoffs after Gujarat Titans defeated it by 6 wickets in the match which was played yesterday at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru. Virat Kohli smashed his second century of the IPL 2023 in yesterday’s match and helped his team in posting a good total of 197/5 in the stipulated 20 overs. With this century, Virat Kohli became the third batter to score the second consecutive century and it was his seventh century of the IPL which is the highest by any batter in the tournament so far. The toss was won by Hardik Pandya and he put RCB to bat first on its home ground. RCB got a good start as the openers Virat Kohli (101 runs not out, 61 balls, 13 fours & 1 six) and skipper Faf du Plessis (28 runs, 19 balls, 5 fours) produced a partnership of 67 runs for the first wicket but after that, no other batter was able to spend much time on the crea...

Nothing seems to be going in favor of English pacer Jofra Archer as he made  comeback on the field in the IPL 2023 after a very long time but just after playing 5 matches, he has got injured once again and he is ruled out of not only the IPL 2023 but also from the prestigious Ashes series. Jofra Archer has suffered from stress fracture once again on his elbow and this will certainly have an adverse effect on his international career. The former skipper of the England cricket team, Kevin Pietersen is quite upset for what is happening with Jofra Archer and KP writes in a blog that he is highly disappointed for Jofra Archer as he feels that this is probably the end of his career with the English cricket. KP writes that there are some reports as per which he may be signed for franchise cricket and that will be the smartest thing for Jofra Archer. He further writes that Archer should take six months to get well, select few tournaments, play in them and bowl at the speed of light in th...

The Indian cricketer KL Rahul is currently recovering after undergoing a successful thigh surgery and he is determined to make a comeback in the Indian cricket team pretty soon. The former vice-captain of the Indian cricket team has been going through a lean phase for a long time and this injury that he suffered during the IPL match has ruled out him not only from the IPL 2023 but also from the finals of the World Test Championship. After his dismal performance in the ICC T20 World Cup 2022, KL Rahul was dropped from the Indian T20 team, then he lost his vice-captaincy and after that, he was also dropped from the squad which played the last two test matches of the Border-Gavaskar trophy. A huge number of social media users have shown no mercy on KL Rahul; they have trolled him in a big manner and demanded his ouster from the Indian team. Not just the online users but few former Indian cricketers have also slammed him, demanded that he should be dropped from the squad, suggested him...
