#livestream #ipl2024 #cricket IPL 2024 Live: GT vs PBKS Live Match | IPL Live Score & Commentary | Gujarat vs Punjab Live Match Business query: info.iqbalsports@gmail.com Preview: Scoring just 75 runs across three games may not be considered poor in T20 cricket, but for Shubman Gill, a batting average of 25 falls short of his lofty standards. As Gujarat Titans gear up to face Punjab Kings in their fourth match of the season, all eyes will be on their newly appointed captain. The question looming large: is the burden of captaincy affecting Gill's performance? "He is batting superbly," stated Mohit Sharma, the Titans' paceman, coming to the defense of his captain. "Yes it is a fact that the stats have not been converted into big ones but he looks in superb rhythm. He is batting very well at the nets. A big knock from him not too far away." Gill's contributions in the three matches so far have been 31, 8, and 36 runs, but greater numbers are certainly expected from him. The challenge for Gill lies in the relentless scrutiny he faces, particularly from Gujarat's passionate fans who are accustomed to the team's high standards. With two finals appearances and one title in the first two years, their success rate exemplary. This season, especially with the mega auction looming next year, presents a big test for the 24-year-old Indian batting sensation. With Gary Kirsten (batting coach and mentor) and Ashish Nehra (head coach) among the highly-organised support staff, Gill has the right environment and set-up to grow as a cricketer. "We as a franchise, as a support staff, are really excited to help him grow as a person more than as a captain. If he grows as a person, then he will definitely be a better captain going forward," Nehra had said before the start of the season. Gill endorsed his coach's advice. "No one is perfect. There is a lot to learn," he had said. A big knock certainly from the captain is round the corner. If he gets one, it could spell trouble from the Punjab, incidentally, Gill's home state. With Sai Sudarshan and David Miller in good form, and Rahul Tewatia to follow, batting is not a worry. Bowling, of course, is never a concern for the Titans, what with Mohit, Rashid Khan and Noor Ahmed taking care of 12 overs. Azmatullah Omarzai has managed to keep highly talented Josh Little out of the XI and Umesh Yadav's experience is always handy for any side. The Titans side looks in sync. Squads: Punjab Kings Squad: Shikhar Dhawan(c), Jonny Bairstow, Prabhsimran Singh, Jitesh Sharma(w), Liam Livingstone, Sam Curran, Shashank Singh, Harpreet Brar, Harshal Patel, Kagiso Rabada, Rahul Chahar, Arshdeep Singh, Rilee Rossouw, Tanay Thyagarajan, Vidhwath Kaverappa, Harpreet Singh Bhatia, Chris Woakes, Rishi Dhawan, Sikandar Raza, Ashutosh Sharma, Atharva Taide, Nathan Ellis, Shivam Singh, Prince Choudhary, Vishwanath Singh Gujarat Titans Squad: Wriddhiman Saha(w), Shubman Gill(c), Sai Sudharsan, Vijay Shankar, David Miller, Azmatullah Omarzai, Rahul Tewatia, Rashid Khan, Umesh Yadav, Noor Ahmad, Mohit Sharma, Darshan Nalkande, Ravisrinivasan Sai Kishore, Sharath BR, Manav Suthar, Abhinav Manohar, Matthew Wade, Kane Williamson, Jayant Yadav, Sandeep Warrier, Shahrukh Khan, Joshua Little, Kartik Tyagi, Spencer Johnson, Sushant Mishra aaj ka match live cricket match jio cinema live cricket match today live match today cricket live match today online live match today how to watch cricket live in mobile live cricket 2022 लाइव क्रिकेट स्कोर Gujarat Titans vs Punjab Kings live match today live cricket match Iqbal Sports live live match today Hotstar Live Iqbal Sports hindi commentary Gujarat Titans vs Punjab Kings Live GT vs PBKS Live PBKS vs GT Live GT Live Match PBKS Live Match IPL Live IPL 2024 Live IPL Live Match Today IPL 2024 Live Match Indian Premier League match live match live india IPL live stream online iqbal commentary iqbal sports live commentary iqbal sports commentary ipl 2024 live kaise dekhe watch free ipl live ipl live kaise dekhe ipl live stream in india ipl live stream in nepal #livestream #livescore #trending Score Credit: crex.live Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

#livestream #ipl2024 #cricket IPL 2024 Live: RCB vs PBKS Live Match | IPL Live Score & Commentary | Bangalore vs Punjab Live Match Business query: info.iqbalsports@gmail.com Join Telegram: https://t.me/iqbalsports Preview: A handful of logistics managers walking into the P1 stand on an idyllic and warm Sunday afternoon in Bengaluru's Chinnaswamy Stadium received the above, all-too-familiar acoustic welcome. It was the sound of RCB's batters practising their range hitting and sending projectiles into unoccupied chairs around the ground. The homecoming hope is for the 'thud' to be replaced by a celebratory crowd roar. After a false start in Chennai, RCB have a run of three home games in an eight-day window where batting missteps will come with a big price. The Monday night fixture against Punjab Kings is a first opportunity to see if the Andy Flower and Mo Bobat combine have an alternate theory to playing on this most unforgiving of T20 grounds. Last year, for example, saw an average score of 196. RCB got 197 in a final 'win and qualify' game and still lost with five balls to spare. Could they, for instance, eschew all inhibition, forget about bowling strengths and hit out from the get go? To that extent, the partnership between Anuj Rawat and Dinesh Karthik on the opening night of IPL 2024 was a reassuring display of available depth. For the visitors, it is a very short turnaround after a positive start at a new home. But if there is one venue they wouldn't mind turning up straight for a match 48 hours after the last one, then this is it. The Chinnaswamy holds no secrets. Or does it?

#livestream #pakvsnz #cricket India vs Afghanistan T20 Live | India vs Afghanistan Live | IND vs AFG Live Commentary, Last 14 Over Business query: info.iqbalsports@gmail.com Join Telegram: https://t.me/iqbalsports Preview: "A win would be nice..." is how Jonathan Trott started off his press conference on Tuesday (January 16) in Bengaluru. His team has already lost the series but there's a lot to play for, insisted the former England batter. His words must be revered as gospel truth within the confines of the Afghanistan dressing room as he led them to a highly impressive ODI World Cup campaign just a few months ago. For Afghanistan to repeat that in the T20 version in June, the head coach already knows what they need to fine tune collectively. And the Bengaluru game could yet be used as a starting point before they play Sri Lanka in February and Ireland in March. For India, this is the last T20I before the World Cup but that's barely significant for what's to follow between now and the marquee event in June. Four days after the third T20I, nearly half of this squad will be in Hyderabad for the start of a five-Test series against England that will go on till the second week of March. The next big indicator for the World Cup selection will be the two months that follow with the IPL. Between Rohit Sharma getting his first runs of the series, Virat Kohli showing intent and Arshdeep Singh trying out a new leg-cutter to the left-handers, Wednesday's game for India could thus boil down to individual context rather than the collective. Squads: India Squad: Rohit Sharma(c), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, Shivam Dube, Jitesh Sharma(w), Rinku Singh, Axar Patel, Washington Sundar, Ravi Bishnoi, Arshdeep Singh, Mukesh Kumar, Sanju Samson, Tilak Varma, Kuldeep Yadav, Avesh Khan, Shubman Gill Afghanistan Squad: Rahmanullah Gurbaz(w), Ibrahim Zadran(c), Azmatullah Omarzai, Mohammad Nabi, Najibullah Zadran, Karim Janat, Gulbadin Naib, Noor Ahmad, Fazalhaq Farooqi, Naveen-ul-Haq, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Hazratullah Zazai, Fareed Ahmad Malik, Sharafuddin Ashraf, Ikram Alikhil, Qais Ahmad, Mohammad Saleem Safi, Rahmat Shah aaj ka match live cricket match jio cinema live cricket match today live match today cricket live match today online live match today how to watch cricket live in mobile live cricket 2022 लाइव क्रिकेट स्कोर India vs Afghanistan live match today live cricket match star sports live cricket match today Iqbal Sports live live match today Hotstar Iqbal Sports hindi commentary India vs Afghanistan Live Afghanistan vs India Live IND vs AFG Live AFG vs IND Live Match Today AFG vs IND Live ind vs afg live stream online #livestream #livescore #trending Score Credit: crex.live Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

India's spirits are soaring sky-high after a stellar performance in Mohali led by Shivam Dube's scintillating 60 off 40 in the run chase and a crucial wicket in the first inning. Youngster Jitesh Sharma too added fireworks with the bat and stabilized the middle order and Rinku Singh helped India chase 158 and with Virat Kohli back in the pack for the rest of the series the team looks rock-solid and much more assured. Afghanistan though posted a decent total last time thanks to the ‘President’ Mohammad Nabi’s fantastic knock down the order. However the tourists missed the magic of Rashid Khan due to a back injury and that huge void was indeed felt. The hosts clinched the victory and now India’s eyes are set on sealing the series in Indore. The anticipation is through the roof and we're in for another exciting showdown! Also the good news for all the staunch cricket enthusiasts is that the two greats of the sport. Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will be together seen donning the Blues in the shortest format for the first time since the T20 World Cup 2022 Semi-Final. It is now time for the 2nd T20I between India and Afghanistan at the Holkar Stadium in Indore. India are already 1-0 up in the three-game series and will look to seal the series right away. It was a very chilly evening in Mohali last time around and on a stellar batting track Afghanistan put on a decent total which was well below par. The dynamic duo of Ibrahim Zadran and Gurbaz up top did get runs under. Their belt but neither looked convincing enough. Rohit Sharma the skipper of India says there's no particular reason to bowl first and that it's just the nature of the ground. He says that it's a chasing ground with pretty small boundaries. He's happy with the previous game and says that the guys are executing the plans being spoken to them. Says that they have asked for specific roles for the guys and they are doing accordingly so far. not much they don't have any baggage and it is all about backing them allowing them to be free on the ground. He says that they will do things keeping the World Cup in mind but adds that they they know results are also important. Further adds that they want to try out a few things but the end result also matters a lot and winning is more important than anything. There's a huge roar in the crowd as he says Virat Kohli is in the XI with Yashasvi Jaiswal in place of Tilak Varma and Shubman Gill. Ibrahim Zadran the captain of Afghanistan says that they will try to bat well and put a good score on the board. Adds that they also wanted to bowl first due to the conditions and the ground being a small one. Tells that they made some mistakes in the last game and they have discussed about it and will look to execute their plans better. Says that Rahmat Shah is not playing and Noor Ahmad comes in for him. Ends by saying that playing an extra spinner is a tactical decision considering the ground conditions. PITCH REPORT: Deep Dasgupta and Nick Knight are pitch side. Nick Knight says that it's pretty much flat and traditionally a very high-scoring venue and obviously the smaller boundaries are one of the reasons. Adds that the surface is really flat and cracks are firm. Adds that there won't be any turn maybe a bit of a little movement initially with the new ball. He says that the team who wins would look to bat under the lights and with the dew coming batting first will have an additional advantage. India won the toss and elected to bowl first.

India vs Afghanistan 1st T20 Live This Match Will be Played at Punjab Cricket Association IS Bindra Stadium Mohali on 11th January 2023 This Match Will Start at 7.00pm From Indian Standard time. IND vs AFG 1st T20 Live Commentary By Sports Updates by Chandan. Follow us on Social Media.

In the first full assignment of 2024 the Men in Blue welcome Afghanistan for a three-match T20I series. The Punjab Cricket Association IS Bindra Stadium Mohali will host the series opener on Thursday (January 11). Adding full stop all the questions rumours the Indian fans are over the moon see Rohit T20I captain return along with the run-machine Kohli in the squad. However the Head Coach Rahul Dravid has confirmed that Kohli will miss the opening T20I due to personal reasons. India's very own Mr 360 Suryakumar Yadav who led the side in South Africa drew the three-match series 1-1 will miss this series and the entire domestic season due to an ankle injury following which he was diagnosed with sports hernia for which the stylish right-hander will soon undergo surgery. Hardik Pandya who is deemed as India's future captain has been in the headlines for the recent trade with Mumbai Indians (MI) and being named as the franchise's skipper for the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) Season despite MI retaining Rohit Sharma will miss this series as the star all-rounder continues his recovery from an ankle injury he sustained in the ODI World Cup 2023. In addition to these the management has decided to rest Ravindra Jadeja Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj while Shreyas Iyer and Ishan Kishan miss out as well. Hitman Rohit will be opening with young dasher Yashasvi Jaiswal with Ruturaj Gaikwad (finger injury) missing out. In the absence of Kohli Shubman Gill is the next best fit for the most important number three position. Tilak Varma Sanju Samson who is back in the T20I set-up after a long time and Rinku Singh will take care of the middle order. Samson's inclusion means Jitesh Sharma might not feature despite impressive performances recently. Arshdeep Singh Avesh Khan and Mukesh Kumar are the preferred three-man seam attack. Either Kuldeep Yadav or Ravi Bishnoi will partner with Axar Patel in the spin department. In what was a big blow to the tourists Rashid Khan the regular T20I skipper of Afghanistan who travelled with the squad to India has been ruled out of the series after failing to prove his fitness on the eve of the opening game. Rashid missed the ongoing Big Bash League (BBL) due to lower-back surgery and also missed the recently concluded three-match T20I series against the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Ibrahim Zadran will lead the Afghan Atalans for the second consecutive series with a 2-1 win against UAE in the recently concluded assignment being the first. Mujeeb Ur Rahman after being rusticated from the Melbourne Renegades squad after a few games due to the cancellation of NOCs by the Afghanistan Cricket Board is back in the camp and will hold the key for the visitors in the absence of Rashid. Noor Ahmad Qais Ahmad Fazalhaq Farooqi and Naveen-ul-Haq are the rest of the known faces in the bowling department with the experienced Mohammad Nabi Karim Janat Azmatullah Omarzai and Gulbadin Naib are the all-rounders. Rahmat Shah Rahmanullah Gurbaz Najibullah Zadran and Zazai are the top batters who have been putting consistent performances for the touring party. Afghanistan in pursuit of its first win against India will come hard at the hosts with healthy IPL experience on its back. Can they spring a surprise on India and hinder their final leg of World Cup preparations? Rohit is set to join Yashasvi Jaiswal at the top of the order. And with Kohli unavailable in Mohali Shubman will take the No.3 spot. Samson might take the gloves after his century show in South Africa.
