    India is set to face Australia in their final Super 8 match of the T20 World Cup on Monday. India aims to secure a third consecutive victory and potentially knock Australia out of the tournament. Australia’s unexpected loss to Afghanistan on Saturday night has put their semifinal chances in jeopardy, depending now on the outcome of Afghanistan’s final game against Bangladesh.

    India, having faced tough defeats against Australia in past ICC events, would be pleased to eliminate their strong rivals early. With wins against Afghanistan and Bangladesh, India has been fine-tuning their game ahead of the knockouts. Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli played key innings against Afghanistan, while Shivam Dube impressed with a crucial performance. Hardik Pandya’s all-round skills have been a major boost, contributing both with the bat and ball. Kuldeep Yadav has been taking vital wickets in the middle overs. Despite a busy travel schedule, India is likely to stick with their current players.

    Australia, on the other hand, is facing several issues after their poor batting and fielding against Afghanistan. Captain Mitchell Marsh has scored only 88 runs in six games at a strike rate of 111 and needs to step up against India. Off-spinner Glenn Maxwell’s high economy rate of 8.58 runs per over is another concern for the team.

    England (ENG) is set to clash with South Africa (SA) in the fifth match of the Super Eights in the T20 World Cup 2024. This match will take place at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium in Gros Islet, St. Lucia, West Indies, on June 21 at 8:00 PM IST. Defending champions England finally displayed their true potential in their Super 8 fixture against West Indies, where they successfully chased down 181 runs in just 17.3 overs, thanks to a spectacular performance by Phil Salt (87* off 47 balls). Another positive development for England is Jonny Bairstow regaining form with consecutive impressive knocks against Scotland and West Indies. Jos Buttler’s side will face South Africa in their second Super 8 fixture on Friday, June 21.

    The match will be held at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium, Gros Islet, St. Lucia, and is anticipated to be a high-scoring encounter, played in hot and humid conditions. Historically, England has not performed well against South Africa, but this time might be different as the Proteas have yet to secure a convincing win in the tournament.

    The Aiden Markram-led South African side has struggled with batting in New York, which was expected given the challenging pitch conditions at Nassau County. While South Africa’s bowling has been consistent throughout their matches, it faltered against the USA, as Anrich Nortje and Tabraiz Shamsi were hit all over the park by USA’s Andries Gous and Harmeet Singh. A sensational penultimate over from Kagiso Rabada saved the match for South Africa, but they will need to improve significantly to progress further in the tournament.

  • No ‘Qudrat Ka Nizaam’ This Time: Pakistan’s Early Exit From World Cup 2024 Sparks Social Media Meme Fest | Cricket News

    The United States cricket team made history on Friday by qualifying for the second round of the 2024 T20 World Cup in their first WC. Their last group game against Ireland in Lauderhill, Florida, was washed out due to rain, which also led to the elimination of former champions Pakistan. Without a toss, the game was abandoned due to a wet outfield, allowing the USA to advance to the Super Eight stage from Group A along with favorites India. This sparked a meme fest on social media, with many trolling Pakistan for their early exit.

    Pakistan’s Early Exit From WC 2024

    The USA reached the last eight thanks to a surprising Super Over win against 2009 champions Pakistan. Pakistan’s early exit is especially disappointing as they were runners-up in the tournament two years ago. The washout also secured the USA an automatic spot in the 2026 T20 World Cup in India and Sri Lanka.

    This is Pakistan’s earliest exit from a T20 World Cup, having played only three games, with a loss to India and a single win against Canada. They were knocked out in the group stage in 2014 and 2016 but had reached at least the semifinals in other tournaments.

    Pakistan’s Shocking Defeat Against USA

    Pakistan suffered a shocking defeat to the USA in their opening match of the T20 World Cup 2024 at the Grand Prairie Stadium, Dallas. The match went to a Super Over after both teams tied at the end of 40 overs. In the Super Over, the USA set a target of 19 runs for Pakistan, who could only manage 13 in response.

Stars like Suryakumar Yadav, captain Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah and more were seen taking part in the exercises in the clips shared on social media by BCCI. India will begin their campaign against Ireland on June 5 followed by a mega-clash against Pakistan on June 9.

    “We have not played cricket yet. Come here for a team activity today. Hopefully it will be good. The weather is really good, so looking forward to it,” Bumrah said.

  • ‘Couldn’t even brush my teeth for two months…’: Rishabh Pant recalls struggling with injuries after car accident | Cricket News

    Star India wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant revealed that after his life-threatening road accident in December 2022, his injuries were such that he could not even brush his teeth for two months. Pant on Monday featured on the second episode of ‘Dhawan Karenge,’ a talk show hosted by Indian opening batter, Shikhar Dhawan on JioCinema.

    During the episode, the 26-year-old cricketer shared his experience after sustaining life-threatening injuries from a horrific accident that left him with multiple fractures and required ligament reconstruction and treatment for a knee injury. These injuries were critical to his career, but he recently made his comeback in IPL 2024 after a 15-month rehabilitation. (‘I will also be lifting the T20 World Cup 2024:’ Rinku Singh)

    While opening up on his post-injury experience, Rishabh shares, “Self-belief and self-confidence are very important while recovering from an injury because there are people saying all sorts of things around you, and you, as an individual, have to think about what’s good for you. The accident was a life-changing experience for me. When I got up after it, I was not even sure if I would be alive, but God was very kind to save me. I could not even brush my teeth for two months, and for six to seven months, I suffered with unbearable pain. I could not go to the airport because I was nervous about facing people in a wheelchair.”

    He further added, “Now that I am making a comeback in cricket, more than feeling pressure, I am excited. I feel this is kind of a second life, so I am excited but also nervous.” (MS Dhoni to become the next Indian team coach? Virat Kohli’s childhood coach says THIS)

    Pant also revealed that one incident in his life that made his mother angry when he was in fifth grade. It was when his father brought him a cricket bat worth Rs 14,000 and his mom got “super angry” with his father’s gift to his son.

    “It was my father’s dream to become a cricketer, and I am glad I could fulfil it. I decided I wanted to be a cricketer when I was in the 5th grade. My dad gifted me a bat worth Rs 14,000, and my mom got super angry,” he said.

    In the recently concluded IPL 2024, Rishabh’s team Delhi Capitals finished in the sixth spot with seven wins, seven losses and 14 points and failed to move to playoffs. He scored 446 runs in 13 matches at a strike rate of over 155 with three half-centuries and emerged as the team’s top run-getter. Now, Pant will make a comeback to international cricket during the ICC T20 World Cup, starting from June 1 in the West Indies and the USA.

  • Pakistan announces 15-player squad for T20 World Cup 2024; Hasan Ali Misses Out | Cricket News

    After hours of speculation, Pakistan on Friday evening announced their 15-player squad for the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024, with Babar Azam leading the Men in Green in the marquee event scheduled to kick off on June 1. The mega tournament will be held in the USA and the West Indies.

    The announcement comes hours after Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Mohsin Naqvi halted the formal announcement of the squad for the T20 World Cup, as reported by Geo News sources. Earlier in the day, Naqvi had expressed displeasure over selectors not holding a meeting to discuss the players for the marquee event.

    Out of the 15 players names of whom were declared by the PCB today, five, including Abrar Ahmed, Azam Khan, Mohammad Abbas Afridi, Saim Ayub and Usman Khan, will make their maiden appearance in the upcoming ICC tournament. (PCB Chairman Mohsin Naqvi Stops Pakistan’s T20 World Cup Squad Announcement – Report)

    “This is an extremely talented and balanced side that has a mixture of youth and experience. These players have been playing together for some time and look well-prepared and settled for next month’s event. This is an extremely talented and balanced side that has a mixture of youth and experience. These players have been playing together for some time and look well prepared and settled for next month’s event,” PCB said in a statement.

    The statement also provided an injury update on Haris Rauf, with a declaration about the speedster’s full recovery. The PCB is hopeful that he will play a crucial role for Pakistan in the upcoming tournament.

    Rauf made his last appearance for the Asian Giants in January and had been on the sidelines after suffering a shoulder injury during a match in the Pakistan Super League.

    “Haris Rauf is fully fit and bowling well in the nets. It would have been nice if he had gotten an outing at Headingley, but we remain confident that he will continue to maintain an upward trajectory in the upcoming matches, as he will have an important role to play along with other strike bowlers in the T20 World Cup,” PCB added.

    After inclusion of Rauf, there is no space left for right-arm seamer, Hasan Ali, in the 15-player squad. Ali was recently released from Pakistan’s squad for their ongoing T20I tour of England.

    The Men in Green will kick off their campaign against the USA on June 6. They will face arch-rival India on June 9 at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium, New York.

    Pakistan squad for T20 World Cup: Babar Azam (captain), Abrar Ahmed, Azam Khan, Fakhar Zaman, Haris Rauf, Iftikhar Ahmed, Imad Wasim, Mohammad Abbas Afridi, Mohammad Amir, Mohammad Rizwan, Naseem Shah, Saim Ayub, Shadab Khan, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Usman Khan
