“Na Mereko Farak Padta Hai”: Hardik Pandya’s Straight Reply On Social Media Talks

Posted on March 1, 2024 by Gaming Gyan

Get ready for the spotlight on Hardik Pandya as the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 kicks off. He’s taking charge of the Mumbai Indians, stepping in for Rohit Sharma as the captain. Pandya hasn’t played international cricket for India since hurting his ankle in the ICC Cricket World Cup against Bangladesh last October. He missed the T20Is against Australia at home and the South Africa tour.

Before the upcoming IPL season, Pandya switched from the Gujarat Titans to the Mumbai Indians in November. He took over from Rohit Sharma, who led the MI to five IPL victories.

Leading up to the IPL, Hardik Pandya shared some lesser-known things about himself. “Most of my fans don’t know this, but I’m a homebody. I rarely go out. In the last three to four years, I’ve hardly left home, only when it was necessary or something came up with my friends. I prefer staying home. There was a time when I stayed home for 50 days straight. I didn’t even use the home elevator,” he revealed during a chat show with the UK 07 rider. “I have my home gym, home theater. Everything I like is right here at home.”

When asked about a viral photo of him in a fancy car, Pandya explained that someone sent it to him for a test drive. He also mentioned his approach to media comments: “I don’t usually comment in the media. I’ve never done it, and it doesn’t bother me,” said Hardik Pandya.

He also shared a humorous incident related to winning the ‘Man of the Match’ trophy. “I used to think the player who gets the Man of the Match award gets all the money. So when I won it, I thought the money was for me. But later, I found out it’s divided among the team. After all, it’s a team sport,” he laughed.

Pandya Faces Backlash As Rohit Sharma Fans Remove His Poster Ahead Of IPL 2024

Posted on February 27, 2024February 27, 2024 by Gaming Gyan

In a surprising twist, a bunch of students convinced the college bosses to take down a poster showing Hardik Pandya, the captain of Mumbai Indians (MI). These students really like Rohit Sharma and didn’t like seeing Pandya as the MI skipper on the poster.

Mumbai Indians, one of the most successful teams in the IPL, surprised everyone by making Hardik the captain for the next IPL season in 2024, instead of Rohit. This news made Rohit’s fans very emotional. They felt upset, angry, and disappointed.

Even though Mumbai Indians explained why they made Hardik the captain, some of their fans are still not happy about it. Rohit Sharma’s loyal fans are not happy with Pandya and think he should give up being the captain. They also blame the MI bosses for choosing Pandya.

Mumbai Indians said they changed captains because they have plans for the future. They thanked Rohit Sharma for playing amazingly for them since 2013, helping the team win five IPL titles.

Mahela Jayawardene, the team director, and Mark Boucher, the head coach, explained why they chose Hardik Pandya as the captain. But even after all these explanations, Rohit Sharma’s fans are still not satisfied.

Pandya got hurt in a cricket match in 2023 and couldn’t play for a while. He hurt his left ankle during India’s game in the 2023 Men’s ODI World Cup. Now, he’s getting ready to play again in the DY Patil T20 Cup, starting on Monday in Navi Mumbai. He’ll lead the Reliance 1 team and their first match is against Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL).

Posted on February 22, 2024 by Gaming Gyan

Captain Rohit Sharma, a really great batsman of today, is almost at another big achievement in his amazing career. He only needs 22 more runs to reach 4000 runs in Test cricket. Rohit Sharma is known as one of the best batters in all types of cricket nowadays.

When Rohit Sharma started opening in Test cricket, he showed how good he is at changing and doing things differently. He doesn’t play like everyone else. He hits the ball hard and smartly, making him strong in the longest kind of cricket match.

Rohit Sharma has already made a lot of records and won many awards in shorter cricket matches. But he’s doing really well in Test cricket too. From scoring big on his first time opening to staying strong in tough situations, he’s proven he can play well in all kinds of conditions.

As Rohit Sharma gets closer to 4000 runs in Tests, cricket fans everywhere are excited to see what’s next for him. He’s good at handling pressure and always plays really well. He’s changing what people think is excellent in cricket, and he’s leaving a big mark on the sport.

Understand This is T20″: Rohit Sharma’s Funny Remark to Ravindra Jadeja on No Balls Goes Viral

Posted on February 17, 2024 by Gaming Gyan

Every so often, the leader of India’s cricket team, Rohit Sharma, says really funny things that make everyone laugh. Even when the game is intense, he manages to say something funny. This happened during the second India vs. England Test match in Rajkot. After India scored 445 runs in their first turn to bat, England, led by Ben Duckett, played aggressively and ended the day at 207/2 after 35 overs.

Besides Duckett scoring the fastest hundred for England, the Indian bowlers struggled. Even Ravindra Jadeja, who usually bowls well, made a couple of mistakes with no balls. To cheer up Jadeja, Rohit Sharma told him on the mic, “Jaddu, think of it like a T20 game. Don’t make no-ball mistakes.” Rohit Sharma encouraged Jadeja to imagine he was playing a T20 match, where no-ball mistakes aren’t allowed.

A video of Rohit Sharma’s funny comment went viral:

Duckett’s 88-ball century changed the game. England is 238 runs behind India with 8 wickets left. Duckett will continue batting on Day 3 with Joe Root, who hasn’t scored much in this series. Ravichandran Ashwin and Mohammed Siraj have taken wickets for India, but England’s strategy has given them a lot to think about for Day 3.

Rohit Sharma To Captain India For T20 World Cup 2024, Jay Shah Confirms

Posted on February 15, 2024February 15, 2024 by Gaming Gyan

It’s all official now. The captain of India’s Test and ODI teams, Rohit Sharma, is expected to lead the team for the ICC T20 World Cup in June 2024. Jay Shah, the secretary of BCCI, hinted that Rohit will lead the T20 World Cup team. He made this announcement during the event where they renamed the Rajkot stadium to the Niranjan Shah Stadium on February 14th.

During the event, Jay Shah expressed his confidence in Rohit’s leadership. He mentioned that even though India lost the final of the 2023 ODI World Cup, they won hearts by winning 10 matches in a row. Jay Shah believes that India will win the 2024 T20 World Cup under Rohit Sharma’s captaincy in Barbados.

There was a lot of talk about who would captain the team for the T20 World Cup. Names like Hardik Pandya and Suryakumar Yadav were circulating, as they had led the team when the senior pro was absent. However, when Rohit was named as captain for the home T20I series against Afghanistan in January, it became clear that he would lead the team for the 20-over World Cup.

Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli were both selected for the Afghanistan series. This series marked their return to international T20 cricket since India’s semi-final exit at the ICC T20 World Cup in November 2022.

In the meantime, India is preparing to play against England for the third Test in Rajkot. The match will take place at what was previously known as the Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium, starting on Thursday, February 15th.

Glenn Maxwell equals Rohit Sharma as a batter with the most T20I centuries with 120 vs WI.

Posted on February 12, 2024February 12, 2024 by Gaming Gyan

Glenn Maxwell matched Rohit Sharma’s record for the most centuries in T20I matches. Both now have 5 T20I centuries. Maxwell scored a blazing 120 runs against West Indies in the 2nd T20 on Sunday. He reached 120 in just 55 balls, hitting 12 boundaries and 8 sixes to help Australia score 241/4.

“It was really fun. Batting here is always good. The wickets were great during the Big Bash tournament. The pitch was good today too. I always rely on my hand speed, and it worked well today. I try to give myself the best chance always. My parents are here in Adelaide too. It’s nice to play a positive innings,” Maxwell said during the mid-innings break.

West Indies tried to chase the total, but despite a spirited 63 from captain Rovman Powell, they lost by 34 runs.

In the 1st T20I on Friday, David Warner celebrated his 100th T20I appearance by scoring 70 off 36 balls. Adam Zampa took 3-26 as Australia won by 11 runs. Warner and Tim David (37 not out off 17 balls) finished strong to reach 213-7 after being asked to bat first.

West Indies couldn’t chase down the target despite a brisk start from Brandon King (53) and Johnson Charles (42). Zampa’s crucial blows limited them to 202-8 in 20 overs.

Warner and Josh Inglis (39) scored runs quickly against Akeal Hosein and pace of Jason Holder and Alzarri Joseph (2-46), scoring 93 runs in eight overs.

Australia won the three-match one-day international series and split the two-Test series with West Indies.

3 MI bowlers to watch out for in IPL 2024

Posted on February 12, 2024 by Gaming Gyan

The Mumbai Indians haven’t done so well in the past few seasons of the Indian Premier League (IPL). They were really good in IPL 2020, being at the top of the table and winning the championship. But in IPL 2021, they didn’t even make it to the playoffs. Their worst performance was in IPL 2022, where they finished at the bottom with just 4 wins out of 14 games.

They did a bit better in IPL 2023, making it to the playoffs and even the second qualifier match. In IPL 2024, Hardik Pandya will be leading Mumbai Indians as their captain because Rohit Sharma, who led them to five IPL victories, was replaced by the management for certain reasons. In the IPL 2024 auction, Mumbai Indians bought several bowlers to strengthen their team, especially in the bowling department, which was weak in the last two seasons.

Now, let’s talk about the three most impressive bowlers to watch out for in IPL 2024 for Mumbai Indians:

1. Akash Madhwal:

Akash Madhwal was a real savior for Mumbai Indians and Rohit Sharma in IPL 2023. They were missing both Jofra Archer and Jasprit Bumrah, which weakened their fast bowling unit. Madhwal, originally from Dehradun and used to playing tennis-ball cricket, stepped in and did a fantastic job. He took 14 wickets in 8 matches in IPL 2023, with his best performance being 5/5, helping Mumbai Indians reach the playoffs.

2. Gerald Coetzee:

Gerald Coetzee, the South African player, was a great bargain for Mumbai Indians in the IPL 2024 auction. He bowls really fast, around 145 kilometers per hour, and also bats well when needed, all for a reasonable price. Coetzee is known for his pace, variations, and ability to make the ball bounce unpredictably, making him a valuable asset for Mumbai Indians. He’s excited to bowl alongside Jasprit Bumrah, which will be tough for their opponents to handle.

3. Jasprit Bumrah:

Jasprit Bumrah couldn’t play in IPL 2023 because he was recovering from back surgery. However, he made a strong comeback for the Indian team later that year, playing in the Asia Cup 2023 and the ICC World Cup 2023. Bumrah has been a key player for Mumbai Indians, taking 145 wickets in 120 matches with a best of 5/10. His return to the team will help the new captain, Hardik Pandya, build a strong pace attack around him. With the T20 World Cup 2024 approaching, Bumrah’s experience will be crucial, especially since he last played in the T20 format against Ireland.

IPL 2024: Rohit Sharma And Hardik Pandya Unfollow Each Other On Instagram

Posted on February 9, 2024February 9, 2024 by Gaming Gyan

In prеparation for thе 2024, Indian Prеmiеr Lеaguе (IPL) and Mumbai Indians made a significant movе by bringing all roundеr Hardik Pandya onto thеir tеam and appointing him as thеir nеw captain.

Howеvеr and this dеcision sееms to havе causеd somе tеnsion bеtwееn Hardik Pandya and Rohit Sharma and anothеr kеy playеr on thе tеam? Rеcеnt rеports indicatе that Rohit Sharma and Hardik Pandya havе chosеn to unfollow еach othеr on Instagram and a popular social media platform.

This came as a very big shock for fans of both these cricketers who look up to them with high expectations. Moreover, their contribution to the Indian cricket team has been well applauded.

A day before this controversy was sparked, Mumbai Indian’s coach and former South African cricketer Mark Boucher also provided some insights into the situation. As stated by them, the team collectively along with the management decided to appoint Hardik as their caption to burden Rohit Sharma from any pressure. The decision was made with good intentions and keeping in mind the future scope of their team. Bouchеr еxplainеd that this dеcision was primarily crickеt oriеntеd and aimеd at allowing Rohit to focus morе on his pеrformancе without thе addеd rеsponsibilitiеs of captaincy.

Boucher also mentioned that the decision regarding Rohit Sharma’s role is important in cricket, and he believes it will help Rohit perform better, both as a player and as a person. Boucher feels that allowing Rohit to play freely and score runs will benefit him. Rohit has been leading teams for a long time, especially the Mumbai Indians, and he has performed amazingly in that role.

“He walks into a place, and there are cameras everywhere. He’s really busy and hasn’t been doing so great in the last few seasons with the bat, but he’s been a good captain,” Boucher said on a podcast.

Ea when Mumbai Indians announced Hardik Pandya as the new captain for the upcoming IPL 2024, Rohit Sharma’s fans got upset with the team. Lots of fans stopped following MI on social media sites like Twitter and Instagram.

Rohit Sharma and Hardik Pandya used to be close friends. But now, they’ve unfollowed each other on Instagram, according to their profiles on the app.
