Hardik Pandya’s tactics left Steve Smith ‘perplexed’; all-rounder’s captaincy has been ‘ordinary’, says Irfan Pathan

After Mumbai Indians lost their second match in the 2024 edition of the Indian Premier League, former cricketers again pointed out flaws in MI skipper Hardik Pandya’s captaincy and the tactics he employed. Mumbai Indians’ bowlers were tonked for 277 runs in a game that saw 523 runs being scored overall. In reply, Mumbai’s batters could only manage to score 246/5 as their chase fell short by 31 runs. Australia cricketer Steve Smith, who is on the commentary panel for Star Sports, expressed his surprise at some of the tactics employed by Mumbai Indians captain Hardik during the match. “I was perplexed with some of their bowling changes in the first innings for Mumbai. Jasprit Bumrah bowled in the 4th over where he went for 5 runs. Then, we didn’t see him again till the 13th over when SR...

Deepak Young left-handed batter Abhishek Sharma has said the message from the team management was pretty simple "go out and express yourself" as Sunrisers Hyderabad beat Mumbai Indians by 31 runs in an IPL match that witnessed records tumbling like ninepins. Records tumbled as SRH batters went on the rampage to post the highest IPL total of 277 for 3 against MI on Wednesday night. It was scintillating exhibition of power-hitting from SRH opener Travis Head (62 off 24) and number three Sharma (63 off 23) with the latter registering his team's record for the fastest fi...

Takeaway from SRH vs MI six-hitting festival: 300-run mark in IPL is closer than ever before

SRH vs MI, IPL 2024: Sunrisers Hyderabad broke an IPL record on Wednesday; the highest score in the league that keeps lifting its yardstick. Travis Head and friends nearly breached a barrier too; the league’s first 300. They eventually fell 23 runs short of the golden frontier, but there were moments in the game they threatened to reach the elusive shore. A margin of 23 runs looks distant in this format, but look deeper and closer, the total was not that far away. Four more sixes, or six more fours, which they were adequately capable of, could have scripted history. There were 21 dot balls. Better manipulation of fields, more risks paying off, a top-edge or two, or a more fluent Mayank Agarwal (11 from 13 balls), or no Agarwal at all, the league’s first 300 could have been born. That th...

Big records set during Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Mumbai Indians IPL clash | Cricket News – Times of India

NEW DELHI: Sunrisers Hyderabad etched their name in the annals of IPL history with a monumental total of 277/3 against Mumbai Indians, the highest-ever in the tournament's history. Travis Head's explosive 62 off 24 balls propelled Hyderabad past the previous record, setting the stage for a thrilling 31-run victory. Despite Tilak Varma's valiant 64, Mumbai's chase fell short on a high-scoring night that witnessed a staggering 38 sixes, setting a new IPL record. Sunrisers' formidable batting display, highlighted by Abhishek Sharma's rapid half-century and a stellar partnership between Heinrich Klaasen (80*) and Travis Head (62), proved too daunting for Mumbai.

SRH vs MI: Cummins fights back for the bowlers on a day newcomer Kwena Maphaka has a baptism by fire against Travis Head & Co

Rs 20.5 crore for Pat Cummins at the auction raised eyebrows, as whether it was worth spending that amount on a cricketer who hasn’t really nailed down the T20 format was yet to be seen. Then he was appointed Sunrisers Hyderabad captain too, when there was a case to be made that he might not be a nailed-on starter as one of the four overseas picks. But on the other side, everything he touches these days turns to gold. Perhaps that is what SRH were banking on.One match doesn’t prove either side of the case, but Cummins had plenty to smile towards the back-end of Wednesday’s sixathon. On a night when 523 runs were scored on a belter of a wicket, the 15th over bowled by Cummins went for just 3 runs. He finished with 2/35 from his four overs, taking the wickets of Rohit Sharma and Tilak Var...

Most sixes, most runs: Records tumble as Sunrisers Hyderabad out bat Mumbai Indians to seal their first win

Synopsis: It was a six-fest as both teams combined to score the highest number of sixes (38) and most number of runs (523) in a single game but it was Sunrisers Hyderabad who sealed the game with smart death bowling. Mumbai’s stubbornness of not using more of Jasprit Bumrah in the first 10 of the bowling innings also played a part. The cracking sound the bat made when Travis Head clobbered Maphaka for six and followed up with a pulled six would have given a nostalgic feeling to the crowd who have seen David Warner rule the arena like a boss in the past. If Head reached his half-century in 18 balls and broke the record to become the fastest to reach the mark for SRH, Abhishek Sharma would soon break the record in 16 balls. Head played a few cheeky shots through the third-man region when ...

SRH vs MI Live Score, IPL 2024: Pat Cummins and Hardik Pandya face off as Hyderabad-Mumbai eye first win of the season

Mumbai Indians captain Hardik Pandya interacting with Rohit Sharma during IPL Cricket match between Mumbai Indians and Gujarat Titans at Narendra Modi stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday (Express photo by Nirmal Harindran) There was a smattering of boos at the toss, it got louder when he came on to bowl and conceded a few boundaries in the Powerplay, and got even more definitive after a diving effort to prevent a boundary. Hardik Pandya’s ‘transfer’ was already seen as a game-changer in the league, and it has now brought in a football-like atmosphere to the IPL where former players getting booed has become a reality. In the end though, as an Australian captain once famously mentioned, he had the chance to silence the Ahmedabad crowd (well, somewhat, given there were still plenty of MI fans...

IPL 2023: We need someone like Rahul Tewatia, David Miller who could finish the game, says Brian Lara

After suffering a 14-run defeat at the hands of Mumbai Indians on Tuesday, Sunrisers Hyderabad Head Coach Brian Lara feels that losing wickets in the powerplay has been setting them back. The Sunrisers’ coach reckons that their middle order is still a work in progress and that they need a batter who can finish the game off for them. “It’s a work in progress. We need to have guys who are thinking the game throughout right till the end,” said Lara during the post-match conference. “There are some great examples in the IPL. Tewatia, Miller, we do need that sort of person to understand how to calculate going down, who are the bowlers going to come and plan properly.

SRH vs MI IPL 2023 emotional rollercoaster: Rohit takes apart Washington Sundar, Jansen swings momentum & a weak powerplay holds back SRH

Rohit dismantles Sundar It was a trick played too early by Sunrisers Hyderabad skipper Aiden Markram. Trying to get his counterpart Rohit Sharma out early, he introduced the spin of Washington Sundar, who has been in a particular thorn in Rohit’s side in the IPL by dismissing him thrice in six innings, in just the third over, and watched the move backfire immediately. The pace of Bhuvaneshwar Kumar and Marco Jansen had made for an intriguing early matchup with Rohit and Ishan Kishan. Both holding their line well and swinging the ball into the batsmen making them struggle to get fluency in their strokeplay. But once Sndar took the ball, Rohit would release himself by hitting three typically aesthetic boundaries to get going. The first two were lifted on the leg side, one sweep over fine ...
