“Generational fraud” – Twitter blasts Shubman Gill for getting dismissed for duck in 1st Test

Shubman Gill, who recently won the Polly Umrigar Award at the BCCI Awards, has found his low as he got out on a duck against England in the fourth innings. India is chasing 231 runs in the fourth innings after England was bundled for 420 in the third innings, taking a lead of 230 runs against India in the first Test at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium In Hyderabad.

Shubman Gill delivered a flop show in Hyderabad in both innings as he got out on 23 in the first innings and a duck in the second innings.

The 24-year-old batter has been struggling since the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 and his record in Test cricket has been shambolic, to say the least. Gill has played 21 Tests and has scored 1063 Tests at an average of 29.53 which includes four half-centuries and two centuries.

England’s No.3 Ollie Pope, gave a chance to his side to initiate a fightback but India’s No.3 have disappointed with his performance in red-ball cricket.

Gill has impressed in only one format with his stats and that is ODIs where he averages 61.38 and also has a strike rate of 103. He has not been able to convert his white-ball form to his red-ball game and has struggled with performances in Test cricket.

Fans have massively trolled Shubman Gill for his performance against England in the Test match and have heavily criticized the youngster.

He was called a prodigy but his inconsistency has led to severe criticism by fans and it is high time that he makes these opportunities count or else he can be replaced by someone else who performs better.

Image
Sri Lankan opener Pathum Nissanka scripted history as he scored his maiden ODI double ton in the first ODI against Afghanistan in Pallekele. The Lankans scored a mammoth 381/3 in 50 overs. He became the first Sri Lankan batsman to score a double century in ODI cricket. He surpassed Sanath Jayasuriya’s career-best ODI score of 189 to achieve this rare feat. He got to the landmark hitting a boundary four of Afghan pacer Fareed Malik. Nissanka finished with 210 off 139 deliveries as he hit 20 fours and 8 sixes in his innings at a strike rate of 151.07. He first added 182 runs for the first wicket with Avishka Fernando (88). Kusal Mendis the captain scored 16, Charith Asalanka an unbeaten 7 as Nissaka added another crucial stand of 120 runs with Sadeera. Every Afghanistan bowler was expensive in this match. Fareed Malik and Mohammad Nabi were the only two bowlers to pick up wickets. Every bowler barring Nabi conceded runs at an excess of seven runs per over. Malik went for 79 runs off h...

“It’s MS Dhoni show” – CSK fans happy despite defeat to DC as India legend shines with excellent cameo

Image
In the 13th match of the Indian Premier League 2024 (IPL 2024) , the Rishabh Pant-led Delhi Capitals (DC) took on the Ruturaj Gaikwad-led Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at the Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam on Sunday, March 31. Delhi Capitals won the toss and surprisingly elected to bat first in the match. They made two changes to their playing XI as Kuldeep Yadav, who had a niggle, and Ricky Bhui were replaced by Prithvi Shaw and Ishant Sharma. Chennai Super Kings, unsurprisingly, fielded an unchanged playing XI. Playing in his first match in the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL), Prithvi Shaw set the stage on fire and gave a message to the DC team management. He played his natural attacking brand of cricket and was involved in a terrific partnership of 93 runs with veteran opening batsman David Warner. Shaw smashed 43 runs off 27 balls during his stay in the middle and David Warner slammed 52 runs off 25 balls. The DC openers wer...

Image
The Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai hosted the 14th match of the Indian Premier League 2024 (IPL 2024) between the Hardik Pandya-led Mumbai Indians (MI) and Sanju Samson-led Rajasthan Royals (RR) on Monday, April 1. Rajasthan Royals (RR) won the toss and as expected elected to bowl first in the match. They made one notable change to their bowling unit as Sandeep Sharma, who was unfit, made the way for Nandre Burger in the playing XI. The decision to have a go with the ball turned out to be excellent for the visiting team as the star left-arm pacer Trent Boult made the Mumbai batters dance to his tunes. Trent Boult dismissed Rohit Sharma and Naman Dhir for golden ducks on the 5th and 6th ball of the first over of the innings. MI were forced to bring in Dewald Brevis ahead of the second over as an impact player. Nandre Burger came to bowl the second over and he bowled some brilliant lines and lengths but wasn’t able to pick any wickets. Then, Trent Boult came again and dismissed Brevis ...
