For all the criticism around their auction picks, Gujarat Titans make a fairytale entry into IPL playoffs | Cricket News – Times of India

PUNE: It has been a fairytale entry into the IPL 2022 playoffs for newcomers Gujarat Titans, who were not given much of a chance by the critics following the mega auction in February this year. The Hardik Pandya-led Titans qualified with two league games remaining, thrashing Lucknow Super Giants by a massive 62 runs in what was one of the most commanding displays this season while defending a par total. Defending just 144, built largely on the efforts of young Shubman Gill's unbeaten 63, the Titans' self-belief was the key as they restricted their opponents to just 82, with spinner Rashid Khan accounting for four wickets and the likes of Yash Dayal and Ravisrinivasan Sai Kishore taking two wickets each. Gill conceded that not many people had given the side much of a chance coming into t...

IPL 2022: We just wanted to be ruthless, says skipper Hardik Pandya after Gujarat beat Lucknow | Cricket News – Times of India

PUNE: A "proud" Gujarat Titans' (GT) skipper Hardik Pandya on Tuesday said his side's plan to be ruthless on the field and relax post game paid rich dividends as they beat Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) by 62 runs to become the first team to qualify for the IPL playoffs here. Newcomers GT ensured their place in the last-four with 18 points from 12 games, while LSG are a close second with 16 points from 12 matches and need a win to secure their play-off berth. "Really, really proud of the boys. It is a great effort to qualify before the 14th game in this league. We just wanted to be ruthless today, and relax post game," Hardik said at the post-match presentation ceremony. The win came after back-to-back defeats for GT and Hardik said his side learnt a lot from their last game. "To be honest,...

Avesh Khan the cool cat from Indore, with no dhannat, no bhannat

Last year, days after he was named in the Indian team, a very excited reporter from his hometown had asked Avesh Khan a question that had a rich sprinkling of charmingly rich Indori Hindi. Throwing in a couple of onomatopeic local slangs she asked with unadulterated enthusiasm: “Indore apni dhannat and bhannat ke liye prachilit hai, aapki ball mai kitni dhannat and bhannat dekhi jayegi?” It will be on the weak legs of words like “thunder” and “swagger” that the English language can venture anywhere near dhannat and bhannat. Avesh got the drift in the blink of an eye and it would have been so easy for the pacer, capable of consistently clocking in high 140 kph, to give the headline that the rookie had dreamt. But he let facts come in the way of a great headline. “Nahi dimaag se bowling ...

Why upstarts LSG and GT have taken IPL by storm

IPL 2022 has thrown up several surprises, perhaps none more so than the two new franchises occupying the top two positions as one approaches the business end of the league phase. While usual suspects like Mumbai Indians, Chennai Super Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders have struggled, newbies Lucknow Super Giants and Gujarat Titans have hit the ground running. The Indian Express provides five standout reasons why they have succeeded so far: 1. Batting prowess: For Lucknow, KL Rahul has been on a dream run. After getting picked for a whopping Rs 17 crore, he has amassed 451 runs in the tournament, including two centuries. Apart from the skipper, Quinton de Kock has played a couple of good knocks. Young Ayush Badoni has given ample display of his skill with the willow. When it comes to Gujar...

Ayush Badoni: The man who lets his bat do the talking and tonking

When Ayush Badoni, 22, shuffled across and lapped Hardik Pandya to fine-leg boundary, his childhood coach Balraj Kumar laughed at his home in Punjab. He had just told his disbelieving daughter to watch out for such a shot. “He used to play that shot when he was 9 years old!” laughs Ballu sir, minutes after Ayush’s impressive IPL debut where he stunned Gujarat with an assured game-turning fifty. Three shots stood out in the knock of the former U-19 world cup player, three shots that Ayush is likely to tap the Hotstar app in the night to re-watch. That Pandya lap, an imperious swipe over midwicket off a Rashid Khan googly, and a stunning blast over cow corner against the pace of Lockie Ferguson. A high-quality spinner, a pacer, and a medium pacer who was trying to strangle, were swatted a...

Titans win battle of IPL debutants

Rahul Tewatia’s unbeaten 40 off 24 balls led Gujarat Titans to a five-wicket win with two balls to spare after Mohammed Shami’s three-wicket burst had restricted Lucknow Super Giants to 158. Shami on fire Mohammed Shami on song in Test cricket is a delight to watch of course, but you can’t take your eyes off him in the shorter formats as well when he is in the mood. Two nights ago at the same ground, Umesh Yadav had choked Chennai Super Kings in the Powerplay with pace, swing and accuracy. This match was played two pitches away from Saturday’s IPL opener, on a surface that was not even close to the first one in terms of zip and bounce. Moreover, Umesh had got his wickets when batsmen had attempted aggressive strokes. Instead, Shami went through the defences of three international batsme...

Gill’s Kapilesque catch; Forlorn KL Rahul; Hardik’s review, laced with swagger & Badoni’s long wait for a boundary

Krunal Pandya veiled his joy with his palms after he ejected his brother Hardik. As soon as Manish Pandey completed the skier, and a crushed Hardik swiped his bat in the air in rage, Krunal turned away from his brother and covered his face in his arms. It was only after his brother trudged past him that he unveiled and flashed half a smile, reluctantly, almost like a formality. The feeling might have been strange—may have rekindled memories of backyard cricket when they were kids. Since then, they have almost always been inseparable, on the domestic circuit as well as in the IPL, where until last year, both had worn the Mumbai Indians jersey. Hardik, though, was in a fit of rage, not so much perhaps for giving his wicket to his brother as getting out at a crucial juncture of the match....

GT vs LSG Predicted Playing XI: Where will Krunal Pandya and Deepak Hooda bat for Lucknow?

Former Baroda teammates Deepak Hooda and Krunal Pandya will be playing for the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in the ongoing 2022 Indian Premier League (IPL) match on Monday. New entrants Gujarat Titans and LSG would aim to start their IPL campaign on a winning note. Last year, Deepak Hooda made a series of allegations against Krunal Pandya. Hooda alleged that Pandya has been trying to pull him down and also warned him that he would ensure he did not play for Baroda again. However, since then Hooda had cut all his ties with Baroda and is playing for Rajasthan in domestic cricket. The batting all-rounder even went on to make his ODIs and T20Is debut for Team India. On the other hand, Krunal Pandya will be playing against his brother Hardik Pandya for the first time. Known for his six-hittin...
