The decision to open with Wahdera backfired, as he was dismissed by Mohammed Shami in the first over itself after making a 3-ball 4. MI suffered another blow as Cameron Green suffered a bad blow to the shoulder and had to be retired out. Green faced only three balls and made just four runs before Hardik Pandya's delivery left him in bad pain. Shami took the big wicket of skipper Rohit for a knock of 8 in seven balls.
Earlier, GT posted a massive total of 233 on the board, with Shubman Gill scoring a brilliant knock of 129 in just 60 balls. Gill scored his third IPL century in the last four games. He is only the third player and second Indian after Virat Kohli (2016) to score three or more centuries in a season. Jos Buttler also achieved the feat in the 2022 season as he helped the Rajasthan Royals (RR) reach the final.
The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 is all set for its grand conclusion. After two months of non-stop cricketing action, it has all come down to two teams and one final match.
Though the final was supposed to take place on Sunday, weather gods intervened and made sure the game was rescheduled to Monday, the reserve day.
League-stage toppers Gujarat Titans are up against charismatic Chennai Super Kings in the marquee clash of this season at the Narendra Modi stadium in Ahmedabad.
There is a lot at stake for both teams. While CSK and MS Dhoni have a date with destiny, Gujarat Titans have their own piece of history to chase.
CSK will equal Mumbai Indians' record of five IPL titles with a win on Sunday while GT have a unique chance of winning two titles in two years of their existence. It will also be their captain Hardik Pandya's record-equalling sixth IPL title.
An absolutely intriguing battle awaits us and hopefully, one without weather interventions. It's CSK vs GT for the IPL champions' gong. You can bet on this match in India here.
Lucknow: In what would come as a big setback for the Indian side ahead of the game against defending champions England at Lucknow on Sunday is the fact that captain Rohit Sharma is likely to miss the game. As per a report circulating in the media circles, Rohit has picked up a wrist injury during India's training session and that is the reason why there are question marks over his availability. Rohit, along with Shubman Gill have been setting the tone at the top of the order and the Indian captain has been a key factor in the success of the team thus far.
Meanwhile, there are talks that injured Hardik Pandya would be making a comeback to the side. While that cannot be confirmed, it would be interesting to see who leads the side in Rohit's absence. In all probability, KL Rahul would be the standby skipper at Lucknow.
In the pre-match conference, the right-handed batter Rahul admitted that Hardik is a very important member of the side and that not playing against England will be a miss. He also backed Suryakumar Yadav to deliver in ODIs till Hardik is back. The all-rounder will miss the match against England as well due to an ankle injury he got during the match against Bangladesh in Pune.
Young New Zealand batter Rachin Ravindra is on fire in the ongoing ODI World Cup 2023 in India. The 23-year-old left-handed batter, who was named after Indian cricket legends Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar, has lived up to the reputation of those two legendary batters in six matches played so far in this year’s competition and, with the help of two centuries and two fifties, has scored 406 runs in six matches. His tally of 406 runs is the third highest by any batter in the ODI World Cup 2023.
Before the World Cup had kicked off in Ahmedabad earlier this month, Gautam Gambhir was asked who would emerge as the most impactful player in the 2023 edition and without an inch of hesitation, the former India opener backed Babar Azam to take the tournament by storm having dominated the format at the No. 1 ranked batter since the summer of 2021. Three weeks hence, as Pakistan stooped to a World Cup low on Friday after a fourth consecutive loss to have their campaign on a wing and a prayer, Gambhir took a sharp U-turn on his old remark questioning how Babar ever became the world No. 1 ranked batter in ODIs.
Thursday, November 2, 2023 promises to be a significant date in Rohit Sharma's career. The India captain will lead the Men in Blue for the first time in a World Cup match at Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium, the iconic venue where not only has Rohit grown up playing most of his cricket but also a ground with no shortage of history.
It was at this very stadium 12 years ago that India defeated Sri Lanka in the final to win the 2011 World Cup, a squad which Rohit missed being part of.
Fast forward to today and under Rohit, India are just one win away from sealing a semi-final berth at the 2023 World Cup, and if they are able to get another win past Sri Lanka – their seventh consecutive victory in the tournament – it will mark another giant step in Rohit's little redemption story.
