Umpire rejects bowlers appeal john cena style: Many times such moments come to the fore in cricket, seeing which fans are unable to stop laughing. A similar case has come to light from the Caribbean Premier League 2023, in which WWE star John Cena’s famous action is seen reaching the cricket pitch.
Guyana Amazon Warriors (GAW) captain Imran Tahir faced the on-field umpire with the first ball of his spell during the ongoing Caribbean Premier League (CPL 2023) Qualifier 1 against Trinbago Knight Riders (TKR). Created a hindrance, after which the umpire made the famous John Cena signal ‘You can’t see me’, seeing which even Imran Tahir was surprised.
This is the whole matter
Actually, Tahir came on the attack in the fifth over of TKR’s innings. Mark Dayal tried to play a slog sweep on the very first ball. However, the ball hit the pad directly. Interestingly, there was a huge appeal from the experienced spinner, but the on-field umpire was not able to take the decision. According to him, Tahir came forward after throwing the ball and obstructed the vision. Due to which he could not see. The GAW captain immediately opted for DRS and eventually managed to swing the result in his favor with ball-tracking showing three reds.
Imran Tahir & Co. suffered a 7-wicket defeat in Qualifier 1 vs TKR In this important match, TKR won the toss and decided to field first. For GAW, Saim Ayub and Azam Khan top-scored with the bat, scoring 49 and 36 respectively. Guyana finished at 166/7 in 20 overs. Terence Hinds and Waqar Salamkhil bowled brilliantly and took two wickets each.
Knight Riders chased the target easily in 18.1 overs and won by seven wickets. Opener Chadwick Walton remained unbeaten on 80 runs and led his team to a comprehensive victory. Thus TKR became the first team to qualify for the semi-finals of CPL.
In the first ODI match being played between India and Australia in Mohali. Mohammad Siraj Was not included in the playing eleven. Due to his brilliant performance in the Asia Cup, Siraj is currently the world’s number one bowler in the ODI rankings. stand-in captain KL Rahul India did not give any official update on Siraj at the time of the toss, but former India all-rounder Abhishek Nair said on Jio Cinema that Siraj has not been well for the last few days and the Indian team management has decided to release its star fast bowler for the opening match of the series on Friday. Must have decided not to risk it.
Siraj is troubled by bad weather
Abhishek Nair said, ‘Mohammed Siraj has been struggling with bad weather for the last few days. Therefore the management did not put them at risk. Before the toss, former India opener Aakash Chopra had also confirmed that Siraj is unlikely to play as he was not present during the pre-match warm-up. Siraj did not even participate in India’s only practice session on Thursday before the Australia series. However, there is nothing to worry about the number one ranked ODI bowler.
kept out as a precaution
Keeping the World Cup in mind, not including him in the first ODI was a precautionary step. Siraj may not have practiced with the team since the Asia Cup, but during the pre-series photoshoot, he was seen in a fun mood with the other Indian cricketers. Siraj, who has topped the ICC ODI rankings after his record-breaking performance in the Asia Cup final against Sri Lanka, is an integral part of India’s World Cup plans. Siraj broke the Sri Lankan batting order and recorded figures of 6/21 and played an important role in getting them all out for 50 runs.
Mohammed Shami took place
The person replacing Siraj is Mohammed Shami. Due to the combination with which he is fielding, India has been forced to keep him out of the playing eleven. Abhishek Nair said, ‘We are talking about Shami because he is back but we have to remember that he is a top bowler. Not long ago he was India’s best fast bowler. So his replacement is not bad.
Mohammed Shami took five wickets
Mohammed Shami, who was included in the playing eleven in place of Siraj, performed brilliantly and dismissed five Australian batsmen in his 10 overs. He gave 51 runs with one maiden in 10 overs and restricted the visiting team to a score of 276. Shami showed Mitchell Marsh the way to the pavilion on zero in the very first over of the innings. After that he bowled Steve Smith, Marcus Stoinis and Sean Abbott. Shami also dismissed Matthew Short.
Australia : David Warner, Mitchell Marsh, Steven Smith, Marnus Labuschagne, Cameron Green, Josh Inglis (wicketkeeper), Marcus Stoinis, Matthew Short, Pat Cummins (captain), Sean Abbott, Adam Zampa.
IND vs AUS KL Rahul on Mohali Heat: India won the first ODI match played against Australia in Mohali on Friday by 5 wickets. The captaincy of the first two matches for Team India has been handed over to KL Rahul. Senior players including Rohit Sharma will be included in the third ODI. KL himself made a big contribution with the bat in the victory of Team India. He hit 4 fours and 1 six and scored unbeaten 58 runs in 63 balls. KL looked elated after this spectacular victory. After the match, he gave a big statement on the question of captaincy.
In the beginning it felt like heaven after Colombo
Harsha Bhogle said to KL Rahul after the match – You have returned as captain after a long time. On this KL said- This is not the first time, this always happens with me. I am used to it and also like it. KL also talked about the heat of Mohali. Many players of Team India seemed upset by this. KL said- The heat was intense in the afternoon, but initially it felt like heaven after Colombo.

However, the afternoon heat bothered us. Despite this, the commitment shown by the boys was commendable. We played only five bowlers so they had to bowl 10 overs. It becomes physically challenging because of the heat, but we have all worked on our fitness and it shows on the field.

Said this to Surya
KL further said- We were put under pressure in between. We started really well with the ball, but the middle overs were difficult because of the heat. We talked about staying committed for 50 overs. I was in a difficult position after keeping for 50 overs. It was difficult for the middle order batsmen in the beginning, but they formed a good partnership with Surya. We kept talking about hitting good cricket shots. After Shubman’s dismissal, it was a bit difficult to dismiss the set batsman. We kept talking about hitting good cricket shots, rotating the strike. We didn’t want to get into trouble, we were always on equal footing so we wanted to take it deeper.
After the brilliant bowling of Mohammed Shami (five wickets for 51 runs), on the basis of half-century innings of four batsmen, India defeated Australia by five wickets with eight balls remaining in the first ODI of the three-match series on Friday. After bowling out Australia’s innings for 276 runs, India strengthened its preparations for the World Cup by scoring 281 runs at the loss of five wickets in 48.4 overs.
For India, Shubman Gill (74) and Ruturaj Gaikwad (71) laid the foundation of victory by making a partnership of 142 runs for the first wicket. Whereas captain Lokesh Rahul (58 not out) and Suryakumar Yadav (50) made a partnership of 80 runs in 85 balls for the fifth wicket and took the team to the brink of victory.
Gill hit six fours and two sixes in his 63-ball innings, while Ruturaj hit 10 fours in his 77-ball innings. Mr. 360 degree Suryakumar hit five fours and one six in 49 balls, while Rahul, who hit the winning six, hit one six and four fours in his 63-ball innings. Adam Zampa took two wickets for Australia.
In the World Cup, the Indian team’s middle-order batting is still a weak link and Shreyas Iyer’s failure increased the team’s worries, while Suryakumar Yadav’s brilliant innings reduced the problems of the selectors and the team management. Shami is unlikely to get a place in the starting eleven in the Indian team’s World Cup plans, but the player strengthened his claim by taking five wickets for the second time in his ODI career.
The pressure will increase on Shardul Thakur, a strong contender for a place in the playing eleven of the team due to his batting skills. Shardul gave away 78 runs in 10 overs against Australia without any success. However, luck did not favor Shardul. Shreyas Iyer took an easy catch of David Warner off his ball at the beginning of the Indian innings.
For Australia, David Warner (52), Jose Inglis (45), Steve Smith (41) and Marnus Labuschagne (39) could not convert a good start into a big innings. Chasing the target, Gaikwad and Gill gave a great start to India. Both of them hit fours in the first and third overs of Australian captain Pat Cummins. Gill hit a six against Stoinis.
Gaikwad also got a lease of life in the eighth over off the bowling of Sheen Abbott when wicketkeeper Inglis took a difficult catch. This batsman hit fours against Abbott on the last two balls of the 10th over, due to which India’s score in the powerplay became 66 runs without any loss.
Gill, who was in great rhythm, completed his half-century in 37 balls by hitting fours and sixes on consecutive balls of Matthew Shot in the 14th over and then completed the team’s hundred runs with one run in the 16th over. Gaikwad completed his first half-century of his ODI career by taking two runs off Abbott in the 18th over. He hit brilliant fours on the last two balls of this over. The wonderful partnership between the two was broken by Jampa by bowling Gaikwad.
Shreyas Iyer (three runs), returning from injury, was run out due to a mistake with Gill. Zampa gave a big success to Australia by bowling Gill. India lost three wickets within nine runs. Ishan Kishan, who came to the crease to accompany captain Lokesh Rahul, opened his account with a four.
Jampa took difficult catches of Kishan and then Rahul on consecutive balls in the 28th over of the Indian innings. Both of them took advantage of this by hitting a four on Zampa. Even before this partnership could become dangerous, Cummins ended Kishan’s innings at the hands of wicketkeeper Inglis. He scored 18 runs in 26 balls.

India could score only one goal
In an important match of the Asian Games, the Bangladesh goalkeeper jumped to the right but failed to stop Sunil Chhetri’s brilliant shot from the penalty spot and it went straight into the net. India were awarded a penalty due to a foul by Bangladesh captain Rahmat in which he tackled Bryce Miranda from the edge of the box. India will now play Myanmar which had defeated Bangladesh 1-0 on the opening day.
Had to play three matches in five days
When Sunil Chhetri was asked about the short time he got to recover from the fatigue of the match, he said, ‘The first thing I will do is go and rest. It hasn’t been easy. I’m sure it’s the same for rival teams too. It is not easy to play three matches in five days. Now we have to take ice bath, eat good food and then be ready for the next match.
India missed the opportunity to score a goal on a free kick
India got a great opportunity to score a goal on a free kick when Gurkeerat Singh was ‘fouled’ near the Bangladesh box. Samuel Kinshi took a free-kick after advice from Chhetri but his shot from the left corner was saved by the Bangladesh goalkeeper. The first half remained goalless in which India got another chance to score but Rahul could not make full use of the cross inside the KP box and the shot went astray.
India made three changes
India made three changes in the match. In the last match, Gurmeet Singh had received a yellow card due to which Dheeraj Singh was replaced in his place. Rohit Danu played in place of Rahim Ali and Chinglensena Singh played in place of Sumit Rathi. India will have to show aggression in its upcoming match and will not miss any opportunity to score goals. Especially the forwards will have to play brilliantly.

Why is the series important?
This series is important for both the countries. Both India and Australia are among the strong contending teams for the World Cup. Where Australia will get a chance to understand the Indian conditions. At the same time, India will have a chance to test its players against a strong team. India would like to repeat the performance it has shown in the Asia Cup in this series. Therefore, this series is also being seen as the final dress rehearsal for the Cricket World Cup 2023 starting from October 5.
These three things have to be kept in mind
the rhythm must continue
Entering the Australia series with a record eighth Asia Cup title, the Indian cricket team will be aiming to continue their winning streak. It is worth noting that the Rohit Sharma-led team has lost only one game in the Asia Cup 2023. Its aim will be to defeat Australia in the series and gain momentum in the Cricket World Cup, which is its next task. By winning this series, India can also reach the top in the ODI rankings.
dew factor
Given that the Cricket World Cup 2023 will be held in India during October-November, dew is expected to play an important role. This will be a good opportunity for India to test itself in adverse circumstances. Batting becomes much easier in such a scenario, but dew makes it difficult for teams to defend the total. India will be keen to test the performance of their bowling, especially spin, in the second innings.
Return of injured players
The performance of fit Shreyas Iyer will be under question while the return of injured player Akshar Patel will be awaited. Recently, India has seen some of its key players making a comeback from their respective injuries. KL Rahul and Jasprit Bumrah have made a great comeback. But a new set of injuries has again put his Cricket World Cup plans in jeopardy.
