SRH vs RCB Dream11 Prediction Possible 11 Pitch Report for 41st Match of IPL 2024

SRH vs RCB Dream11 Prediction Possible 11 Fantasy Cricket Tips: 41st Match of IPL 2024 | SRH vs RCB Dream11 Prediction Today | Hyderabad Pitch Report

Everytime Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma, and indeed the SRH team, walk out on the field to bat, they make believe that any score is possible. They are redefining modern day cricket as a theatre of courage, innovation and intent. With the South African pair of dynamos to follow, along with the domestic talents, Sunrisers Hyderabad are mighty hard to stop.

On the other hand, Royal Challengers Bengaluru have had one of their poorest campaigns to date as their last win came exactly a month ago. Sometimes they have been totally outplayed, and other times they were unlucky, but the facts are they have absolutely no more room for error. The side is coming off a one-run defeat in their last encounter, but they must put the disappointment aside and get back on track.

The batting department for both sides has been excellent, but concerns remain over the bowling. Nevertheless, fans are once again going to be entertained with the battle of boundaries at Hyderabad.

IPL 2024 41st Match: SRH vs RCB Possible Playing XIs

Players like Glenn Phillips and Marco Jansen are warming the bench for SRH. That shows how good they have been as a unit. They have found their stable XII, until they decide to give rest to any player, they will go unchanged.

Sunrisers Hyderabad: 1. Abhishek Sharma, 2. Travis Head (OS), 3. Aiden Markram (OS), 4. Heinrich Klassen (OS, wk), 5. Nitish Reddy, 6. Abdul Samad, 7. Shahbaz Ahmed, 8. Washington Sundar/Umran Malik, 9. Pat Cummins (OS, c), 10. Bhuvneshwar Kumar, 11. Mayank Markande, 12. T Natarajan

RCB made three changes in the last game. It looks like they will continue with this combination for a few games if Glenn Maxwell doesn’t return. Also, Reece Topley could come back into the team.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru: 1. Virat Kohli, 2. Faf du Plessis (OS, c), 3. Will Jacks (OS), 4. Rajat Patidar, 5. Cameron Green/Glenn Maxwell (OS), 6. Dinesh Karthik (wk), 7. Mahipal Lomror, 8. Suyash Prabhudesai, 9. Karn Sharma, 10. Lockie Ferguson/Reece Topley (OS), 11. Yash Dayal, 12. Mohammed Siraj

Fantasy Cricket Tips for SRH vs RCB: Key Players to Watch/Key Stats for the 41st Match of IPL 2024

Sunrisers Hyderabad:

  • The opening duo of SRH, with a strike rate of 216 each, are transporting the ball to the boundaries in an instant with a fearless approach. Travis Head scored a terrific century off 41 balls against RCB already in the season. With an average of 54 and SR of 216, he has scored 324 runs thus far. Playing at Hyderabad, he averages 41.
  • Abhishek Sharma has scored 257 runs in this season. Playing against RCB he strikes at 158, and has made 166 runs doing so.
  • Head (9 balls, 24 runs, 1 dismissal) and Abhishek (14 balls, 26 runs, no dismissal) have good numbers against Lockie Ferguson.
  • Heinrich Klassen averages 68.8 at this venue while hitting the ball at a huge strike rate of 191. These numbers get even better when he plays against his ex-team, RCB. He has scored 203 runs in 103 balls against RCB.
  • Aiden Markram at Rajiv Gandhi Intl Stadium has an average of 40 and is an equally-brutal batter in the middle of SRH lineup. In case there happens to be a collapse in firing top order, he will be there to carry his team through to the end
  • Along with captaincy, Pat Cummins has been excellent with the ball too. He has taken nine wickets thus far conceding runs at just 8 RPO in all high scoring games. Playing against RCB, he has taken 11 wickets in eight outings.
  • T Natarajan is the top wicket taker for his side scalping 10 of them in just five innings.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru:

  • Despite Virat Kohli’s relentless efforts in every game, he has been unlucky to be on the losing side on most occasions. The run machine is holding the Orange Cap with 379 runs thus far. Against SRH he averages 35 and has a SR of 142.5. Playing at Hyderabad, his averages boosts up to 44.
  • Captain Faf du Plessis (239 runs) has been decent as well. He has scored 546 runs against SRH and averages 46. If RCB has to do well, this South African Maestro needs to step up and lead with another example.
  • Cameron Green made his return to the team in the last game with 2/35 with the ball. But he is yet to fire with the bat and RCB would hope him to go well against SRH. He has scored 164 runs at SR of 188.5 & importantly he is unbeaten against SRH thus far.
  • Will Jacks (55 off 32) & Rajat Patidar (52 off 23) played crucial knocks in the last game.
  • Dinesh Karthik scored a brilliant knock of 83 (35) when these two teams faced each other last time.
  • Playing at Hyderabad, Mohammed Siraj has taken eight wickets in six outings thus far.  He has scalped just five overall this season but he would expect to come good at his home stadium.

DC vs GT Dream11 Prediction Possible 11 Pitch Report for 40th Match of IPL 2024

DC vs GT Dream11 Prediction Possible 11 Fantasy Cricket Tips for 40th Match of IPL 2024 | DC vs GT Dream11 Prediction Today | Delhi Pitch Report

April 17 saw a rare occurrence in IPL 2024. The bowlers had the biggest say as Delhi Capitals rolled Gujarat Titans for just 89 in Ahmedabad, leading to a big six-wicket win with 67 balls to spare.

However, DC then conceded 125 in the powerplay in their next outing against Sunrisers Hyderabad. The huge swing has been reflective of their season to date, with the ridiculous mixed with the sublime. However, there are positives, with young guns Jake Fraser-McGurk and Tristan Stubbs the two who could take DC to a win today.

For GT, they are chugging along but their batting remains a worry. They got over the line against Punjab Kings a few nights ago, but they need more in what is expected to be another belter of a batting pitch in Delhi.

IPL 2024 40th Match: DC vs GT Possible Playing XIs

Delhi Capitals: 1. David Warner (OS), 2. Prithvi Shaw, 3. Jake Fraser-McGurk (OS), 4. Rishabh Pant (c & wk), 5. Tristan Stubbs (OS), 6. Abishek Porel, 7. Axar Patel, 8. Sumit Kumar/Ishant Sharma, 9. Kuldeep Yadav, 10. Anrich Nortje (OS), 11. Mukesh Kumar, 12. Khaleel Ahmed

Gujarat Titans: 1. Shubman Gill (c), 2. Wriddhiman Saha (wk), 3. B Sai Sudharsan, 4. Azmatullah Omarzai (OS), 5. David Miller (OS), 6. Shahrukh Khan, 7. Rahul Tewatia, 8. Rashid Khan (OS), 9. R Sai Kishore, 10. Umesh Yadav, 11. Noor Ahmad (OS), 12. Mohit Sharma

Fantasy Cricket Tips for DC vs GT: Key Players to Watch/Key Stats

Delhi Capitals:

  • Excitement machine Jake Fraser-McGurk is a potential captaincy pick in Dream11. He has smashed 55 (35), 20 (10) and 65 (18) in his first three IPL matches.
  • In nine T20s this year, Fraser-McGurk has scored 331 runs at an average of 36.78 and strike rate of 176.06.
  • Can David Warner find his best form? He has a great record against Mohit Sharma: 48 balls, 90 runs, one dismissal.
  • Rishabh Pant is DC’s leading run-scorer this season with 254 at a strike rate of 150.29. Tristan Stubbs is next with 199 at a superb strike rate of 180.90.
  • Seamers Khaleel Ahmed (1/18) and Mukesh Kumar (3/14) were too good for GT last week. Ishant Sharma, if fit, will also be important as he took 2/8.
  • Khaleel has dismissed Shubman Gill twice in 27 balls in the IPL (42 runs). Anrich Nortje has even better numbers against Gill, with three dismissals at an average of 11.30.

Gujarat Titans:

  • Shubman Gill is GT’s leading run-scorer this season with 298 at an average of 42.57 and strike rate of 146.79. If he gets past his shaky matchups early, watch out.
  • Sai Sudharsan’s strike rate is in the spotlight. But, he has been a consistent scorer with seven 30+ scores in eight matches this season.
  • David Miller in T20s on this ground: 12 inns, 257 runs, avg. 36.71, SR 123.56. Miller has struck 17 runs off just five balls against Mukesh Kumar.
  • Rahul Tewatia as a differential pick in fantasy? He has been strong again in the finishing department, hitting four 20+ scores in his last five matches. He is striking at 144 overall this season.
  • Expect Rashid Khan to be used early against Rishabh Pant. The DC captain has been dismissed three times by legspin this season.
  • Umesh Yadav against David Warner promises to be an interesting battle. Warner has scored 99 off 68, but Umesh has dismissed him five times.

Other Stats and Facts

  • Head-to-head: Matches 4, DC 2, GT 2.
  • Gujarat Titans (163/4) beat Delhi Capitals (162/8) with 10 balls to spare on this ground last season. Rashid Khan took 3/31 and Sai Sudharsan scored 62* (48).
  • Mohit Sharma is GT’s leading wicket-taker this year (10) and strikes every 16 balls on average on this ground.
  • Prithvi Shaw has scored just 24 runs in three matches against GT so far.

Arun Jaitley Stadium Delhi Pitch Report and Weather

New surface, plenty of runs. Sunrisers Hyderabad hammered 266 on this ground last week, with 125 coming in the powerplay alone. Delhi Capitals responded with 199. Expect another excellent batting pitch.

There were thunderstorms on the eve of the game. However, conditions should be hot and clear for this match. Dew is a possibility.

RR vs MI Reactions 2024 – Sandeep Sharma 5/18, Jaiswal 104*, Chahal 200, Mumbai Indians trolled

Cricket News: Reactions to the 38th match of IPL 2024 between RR and MI – Sandeep 5/18, Jaiswal 104* and Mumbai Indians criticised

For the second time this season, Rajasthan Royals made light work of the Mumbai Indians. Led by Sandeep Sharma and Trent Boult, MI lost three wickets in the powerplay, and were only able to reach a respectable 179/9 courtesy of youngsters Tilak Varma and Nehal Wadhera.

However, the total was not a threat. Yashasvi Jaiswal (104* off 60 balls) made his first big contribution of IPL 2024, thumping the struggling MI attack to all parts, helped also by some awful fielding. He and Jos Buttler combined for 74 in the first eight overs, before Sanju Samson (38* off 28 balls) ensured there were no hiccups.

Earlier, man of the match Sandeep Sharma put on a clinic. His length was impeccable in the powerplay and he then finished the innings strongly as MI had visions of 190+. It is another fine episode in the story that is Sandeep’s IPL career, where he has often contributed to the team’s cause through great use of his skills.

For MI, the defeat put a dagger in their playoff hopes. They have won just three of eight games so far, beating teams only below them on the table, namely Delhi Capitals, Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru. They barely fired a shot, with their fielding and Hardik Pandya’s captaincy in the spotlight.

RR vs MI Reactions: High-flying Royals smash Mumbai Indians by nine wickets with 10 balls to spare as Yuzvendra Chahal takes 200th IPL wicket

Seven wins may be enough to sneak into the playoffs. Rajasthan Royals have already won those amount of matches. They are showing no signs of slowing down ahead of their showdown against LSG on Saturday.

Along with Sandeep and Jaiswal, Yuzvendra Chahal also had a night to remember despite going for 48 off his four overs. The legspinner became the first bowler to take 200 IPL wickets; an extraordinary achievement given he played so many games at the very batting-friendly M Chinnaswamy Stadium.

Mumbai Indians trolled and criticised for another under-par performance

Fans didn’t hold back in their views of the Mumbai Indians. It was another disappointing performance from a team that is only showing glimpses of their best form this season. Some fans have even asked for Rohit Sharma to be reinstated as captain.

CSK vs LSG Dream11 Prediction Possible 11 Pitch Report for IPL 2024 39th Match

CSK vs LSG Dream11 Prediction Possible 11 Fantasy Cricket Tips: IPL 2024 39th Match | CHE vs LKN Dream11 Prediction Today | Chepauk Pitch Report

A few days after Lucknow Super Giants sealed an easy win over Chennai Super Kings, the two teams meet again. This time, Chepauk is the location, where CSK have won all their three games this season.

However, CSK’s poor away form – where they have won just one of four games – places extra importance on this home game. LSG are currently level with Ruturaj Gaikwad’s team and will move into the top four if they break the Chepauk fortress, so it’s a vital encounter.

For LSG, the form and mindset of KL Rahul is a positive. If he gets going again today, they will be hard to beat. Also, LSG will be after a repeat of how they kept CSK quiet in the middle overs on Friday, getting the better of the in-form Shivam Dube in particular.

Indeed, a fascinating game awaits. Do CSK produce a slow, turning surface that LSG are used to when playing at Lucknow? Or is more pace and bounce the answer? We shall see.

IPL 2024 39th Match: CSK vs LSG Possible Playing XIs

CSK may bring Daryl Mitchell back for his ability to play spin.

Chennai Super Kings: 1. Ajinkya Rahane, 2. Rachin Ravindra (OS), 3. Ruturaj Gaikwad (c), 4. Shivam Dube, 5. Daryl Mitchell/Moeen Ali (OS), 6. Ravindra Jadeja, 7. Sameer Rizvi, 8. MS Dhoni (wk), 9. Deepak Chahar, 10. Tushar Deshpande/Shardul Thakur, 11. Matheesha Pathirana (OS), 12. Mustafizur Rahman (OS)

Possible Impact Player Substitute: Ajinkya Rahane/Matheesha Pathirana

LSG could look at bringing Devdutt Padikkal back into the team.

Lucknow Super Giants: 1. Quinton de Kock (OS), 2. KL Rahul (c & wk), 3. Devdutt Padikkal, 4. Nicholas Pooran (OS), 5. Marcus Stoinis (OS), 6. Deepak Hooda, 7. Ayush Badoni, 8. Krunal Pandya, 9. Matt Henry (OS), 10. Ravi Bishnoi, 11. Mohsin Khan, 12. Yash Thakur

Fantasy Cricket Tips for CSK vs LSG: Key Players to Watch/Key Stats

Chennai Super Kings:

  • Ravindra Jadeja has not been dismissed in four of his five innings this season (25*, 7, 21*, 31*, 57*). Against LSG, Jadeja strikes at 140 with the bat (77 runs), but will be seeking to improve on his one wicket in four innings against them.
  • CSK could look to hold Jadeja until Marcus Stoinis comes out to bat. The left-arm spinner has overall figures of 2/24 off 15 balls against Stoinis.
  • Shivam Dube missed out against LSG a few days ago but he is still in fine form. At Chepauk this season, Dube has scored 113 runs at an average of 56.50 and strike rate of 163.8.
  • LSG will aim to test Dube with pace. However, the left-hander has performed well against seam in IPL 2024: 179 runs, avg. 44.8, SR 151.7.
  • Ruturaj Gaikwad has seven 30+ scores in 11 innings at Chepauk. Overall, the CSK captain has struck 396 runs at an average of 39.60 and strike rate of 131.13.
  • Matheesha Pathirana will be key to CSK’s hopes. He has nine wickets in four matches this season. Also, his matchup against Nicholas Pooran is one CSK will aim to exploit if they get the chance: 35 balls, 40 runs, three dismissals.
  • Mustafizur Rahman is CSK’s leading wicket-taker this season with 11. Also, the Fizz has eight wickets in just three matches at Chepauk. One to watch.

Lucknow Super Giants:

  • KL Rahul loves playing against CSK. That was on display a few days ago with his superb 52-ball 83. Overall, he has scored 537 runs at an average of 48.8 and strike rate of 142.8.
  • Rahul has smashed 157 runs off 96 balls against Deepak Chahar without dismissal. He has also never been dismissed by Mustafizur Rahman in all T20s (57 balls, 79 runs).
  • Quinton de Kock, fresh off a half-century, averages 30.3 with a strike rate of 130.9 against CSK.
  • Overall, de Kock has scored 141 runs off 117 balls against Deepak Chahar in T20s (three dismissals). He has also struck 68 off 50 against Mustafizur in all T20s (one dismissal).
  • LSG could look to bowl Marcus Stoinis to Shivam Dube once again. The all-rounder dismissed Dube by bowling a hard length in their matchup on Friday.
  • Nicholas Pooran career record vs CSK: 9 inns, 215 runs, avg. 35.8, SR 150.3. Also, in four innings at Chepauk, Pooran has smashed 85 runs at a strike rate of 193.18.
  • Mohsin Khan will be key in the powerplay. He dismissed Rachin Ravindra first ball on Friday. Also, Ruturaj Gaikwad has been dismissed by left-arm seam three times in IPL 2024, averaging just 12.7 with a strike rate of 108.6.

Other Stats and Facts

  • Head-to-head: Matches 4, CSK 1, LSG 2, N/R 1.
  • Ravindra Jadeja vs KL Rahul: 49 balls, 61 runs, no dismissals.
  • Ajinkya Rahane averages just 16.31 in 13 innings at Chepauk.
  • MS Dhoni is striking at a magnificent 258.88 this season. This includes 29* off eight balls a few days ago against LSG.

MA Chidambaram Stadium Chepauk Pitch Report and Weather

The Chepauk surfaces have played differently so far in IPL 2024. RCB scored 173/6 earlier this season, followed by 206/6 in the next game by CSK. In the third game, KKR managed just 137/9 on a slow pitch.

Regardless, expect the captain who wins the toss to choose to chase. Hot and humid conditions are forecast, with temperatures around 30 degrees at night.

RR vs MI Dream11 Prediction Possible 11 Fantasy Cricket Tips: IPL 2024 38th Match | RR vs MI Dream11 Prediction Today | Jaipur Pitch Report

Mumbai Indians have won three of their past four matches, but still have little room for error. The top four teams are in good form, including Rajasthan Royals who sit pretty atop the table with six wins in seven games.

MI need a more well-rounded bowling display if they are to challenge RR. Jasprit Bumrah has been outstanding and Gerald Coetzee has been in the wickets, but they need to produce more as a unit. If they do, their batting has enough runs in them to challenge the Royals.

Earlier this season, RR blew MI away courtesy of Trent Boult upfront. If the same happens again, Mumbai’s playoffs hopes will fall further in the mire as they remain in the negatives when it comes to net run rate.

IPL 2024 38th Match: RR vs MI Possible Playing XIs

Rajasthan Royals: 1. Yashasvi Jaiswal, 2. Jos Buttler (OS), 3. Sanju Samson (c & wk), 4. Riyan Parag, 5. Shimron Hetmyer (OS), 6. Dhruv Jurel, 7. Rovman Powell (OS), 8. R Ashwin, 9. Trent Boult (OS), 10. Avesh Khan, 11. Kuldeep Sen, 12. Yuzvendra Chahal

Mumbai Indians: 1. Ishan Kishan (wk), 2. Rohit Sharma, 3. Suryakumar Yadav, 4. Hardik Pandya (c), 5. Tilak Varma, 6. Tim David (OS), 7. Mohammad Nabi (OS), 8. Romario Shepherd (OS), 9. Shreyas Gopal, 10. Jasprit Bumrah, 11. Gerald Coetzee (OS), 12. Akash Madhwal

Fantasy Cricket Tips for RR vs MI: Key Players to Watch/Key Stats

KKR vs RCB Dream11 Prediction Possible 11 Fantasy Cricket Tips: IPL 2024 36th Match | KKR vs RCB Dream11 Prediction Today | Eden Gardens Pitch Report

Royal Challengers Bengaluru will be wearing their iconic green jersey in match number 36 against Kolkata Knight Riders at Eden Gardens. RCB have been soaring in their ‘flamboyant greens’ in the last two seasons of IPL with their special memories all over. Will it change RCB’s fate in this IPL? As the star-studded side has struggled, they will be hoping for a turnaround against arch rivals, KKR.

Conversely, Knight Riders are having a terrific season with four wins in six matches. Mentor Gautam Gambhir has brought that missing spark in the side which has taken them to another level, with the decision to open with Narine really paying off.

This IPL has already experienced a RCB vs KKR clash once in the initial phase, where men in purple emphatically outplayed their opponents at the Chinnaswamy. Once again, RCB will be challenged by in-form KKR at their home.

IPL 2024 36th Match: KKR vs RCB Possible Playing XIs

Kolkata Knight Riders: 1. Phil Salt (OS, wk), 2. Sunil Narine (OS), 3. Angkrish Raghuvanshi, 4. Shreyas Iyer (c), 5. Venkatesh Iyer, 6. Rinku Singh, 7. Andre Russell (OS), 8. Ramandeep Singh, 9. Mitchell Starc, 10. Varun Chakravarthy, 11. Harshit Rana, 12. Vaibhav Arora/Suyash Sharma

RCB are trying to find their best combination even after half of the season has passed. Siraj and Green can make a comeback into the side. Glenn Maxwell is still on a break.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru: 1. Virat Kohli, 2. Faf du Plessis (OS, c), 3. Will Jacks/Cameron Green (OS), 4. Rajat Patidar, 5. Saurav Chauhan, 6. Dinesh Karthik (wk), 7. Mahipal Lomror. 8. Anuj Rawat. 9. Vijaykumar Vyshak/Mohammed Siraj, 10. Reece Topley (OS), 11. Lockie Ferguson (OS), 12. Yash Dayal

Fantasy Cricket Tips for KKR vs RCB: Key Players/Key Stats for the 36th Match of IPL 2024

Kolkata Knight Riders:

  • Sunil Narine smashed a spectacular hundred in the last game against RR and is having a season to cherish. He has scored 276 runs at a strike rate of 188 this season. He also strikes at 195.10 playing against RCB and has got 24 wickets against them.
  • Narine has fine numbers against a few RCB batters. He has dismissed Virat Kohli four times, conceding just 127 off 118. He has also conceded just 53 runs off 67 balls against du Plessis, with two dismissals.
  • Phil Salt averages 58.5 with a strike rate of 180 in two games against RCB. With 201 runs, he is the second highest run getter for his side this season.
  • Playing at Eden Gardens, Salt averages 76.5 in sample size of three innings.
  • Andre Russell is also having a great season. He has got limited opportunities to entertain but still the powerful man has made them count. He is striking at 200 this season and he has 128 runs doing so.
  • At Kolkata, he averages 35.2 and has a SR of 192.8. These numbers get even better when he plays RCB. He averages 39 with SR of 205 against them.
  • Varun Chakravarthy has 13 wickets in nine innings and 15 wickets in 11 innings when he plays against RCB and at Eden Gardens respectively. With seven wickets, he is one amongst the leading wicket takers for his side in IPL 2024.
  • Vaibhav Arora has scalped seven wickets from four innings this season out of which four has come in powerplay overs. He can prove to be an unexpected threat for RCB openers.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru:

  • Orange Cap holder Virat Kohli is in very good form with 361 runs at an average of 72. Playing against KKR, he has scored 944 runs thus far and he would love to make it at least 1,000 by the end of this game.
  • Kohli has smashed 65 off 29 against Mitchell Starc without dismissal.
  • Captain Faf du Plessis seems to be back in form as the striker has smashed scores of 44, 61 & 62 in the last three games. Playing against KKR, he is just five runs short of 500.
  • However, du Plessis averages just 16.4 in eight innings at Eden Gardens. Can he improve on this today?
  • 38-year-old Dinesh Karthik has been excellent with the blend of unorthodox strokes, which seems, he hits at his will. He has scored 226 runs this season striking at 205.
  • If gets back into the XI, Mohammed Siraj would be in a huge hurry to show up his skills and get back on track before the upcoming T20 WC. He needs to lead his bowling attack if his team has to do well. He has taken 13 wickets in 13 innings against KKR.
  • Reece Topley has a great record against Phil Salt: 16 balls, 17 runs, three wickets.

Other Stats and Facts

  • Head to head: Matches 34, KKR 20, RCB 14.
  • In last 6 games: KKR 5, RCB 1.

  • In 8 innings, Faf du Plessis averages just 16.4 with the bat at this venue.
  • Dinesh Karthik vs Varun Chakravarthy: 3 runs off 5 balls with a dismissal.
  • RCB’s Green Jersey Matches: Total 13, RCB won 4, Lost 8, NR 1.

Eden Gardens Kolkata Pitch Report and Weather

Eden Gardens has one of the fastest outfields in the country and hence lots of runs should be on offer. Batters will enjoy batting here and we might see another high scoring game as the average first inning score here is 197 this year. But, spinners may have a say.

As an afternoon game, it will be very hot with temperatures exceeding 41 degrees celsius. A mouth watering clash full of runs is on the cards.

Over 50 per cent of fans say no to impact player rule in IPL – survey

Cricket News: CricBlog poll showed over half of fans surveyed believe the impact player rule should be removed from the IPL

Rohit Sharma’s comments on the impact player rule has reignited the debate as to whether it should remain part of the Indian Premier League (IPL). The rule has seen bigger totals in 2023 and 2024 as teams go harder earlier, and has also seen the emergence of talents including Ashutosh Sharma.

However, the Indian T20 captain believes the rule is detrimental to the national team. Speaking on the Club Prairie Podcast to Adam Gilchrist and Michael Vaughan, Rohit said that all-rounders not bowling is not good news for India.

“I generally feel that it is going to hold back [development of allrounders] because eventually cricket is played by 11 players, not 12 players,” Rohit said.

“I’m not a big fan of impact player. You are taking out so much from the game just to make it little entertainment for the people around. But if you look [at] genuinely just cricketing aspect of it, I can give you so many examples – guys like Washington Sundar, Shivam Dube are not getting to bowl, which for us [India] is not a good thing.”

CricBlog survey at end of IPL 2023 showed over half of fans vote no to the impact player rule

At the end of the IPL 2023 season, CricBlog conducted a fan poll on the tournament. One of the questions was whether the impact player rule should return. Interestingly, 51% of the 17,000+ participants voted no.

The general consensus against the rule is that cricket should remain an 11 vs. 11 player battle. Also, the rule has the potential to mask any shortcomings at the auction table.

Cricket News: CricBlog poll showed over half of fans surveyed believe the impact player rule should be removed from the IPL

ESPNcricinfo, in their report of Rohit Sharma’s comments, conducted their own poll. A whopping 87.9% of responded “no” to the question of whether the impact player rule should stay.

What do you think? Should the rule stay or is it too detrimental to India’s team balance in T20s?

LSG vs CSK Dream11 Prediction Possible 11 Fantasy Cricket Tips: IPL 2024 34th Match | LKN vs CHE Dream11 Prediction Today | Lucknow Pitch Report

Who will reign supreme in the battle of the Super Giants and Super Kings? That is the big question in this important match in the playoffs race, with hosts Lucknow Super Giants looking to force their way back into the top four against the in-form Chennai Super Kings.

CSK, courtesy of Shivam Dube, put a number on Mumbai Indians over the weekend. He headlines a strong CSK middle order, which has the ability to put teams to the sword no matter how steady the start is up top. Also, Matheesha Pathirana seems to be getting better with every passing match.

So, LSG have a tough test on their hands but it’s certainly one they are capable of passing. However, they have questions to answer, especially their number three as well as Marcus Stoinis’ consistency at four. A game against a good CSK side is an excellent opportunity to break the two-match losing streak.

IPL 2024 34th Match: LSG vs CSK Possible Playing XIs

Lucknow Super Giants: 1. Quinton de Kock (OS), 2. KL Rahul (c & wk), 3. Deepak Hooda, 4. Marcus Stoinis (OS), 5. Nicholas Pooran (OS), 6. Ayush Badoni, 7. Krunal Pandya, 8. Ravi Bishnoi, 9. Yash Thakur, 10. Shamar Joseph (OS), 11. Mohsin Khan 12. Mayank Yadav/Arshad Khan

Chennai Super Kings: 1. Ruturaj Gaikwad (c), 2. Rachin Ravindra (OS), 3. Ajinkya Rahane, 4. Shivam Dube, 5. Daryl Mitchell/Moeen Ali (OS), 6. Ravindra Jadeja, 7. Sameer Rizvi, 8. MS Dhoni (wk), 9. Shardul Thakur, 10. Tushar Deshpande, 11. Matheesha Pathirana (OS), 12. Mustafizur Rahman (OS)

Fantasy Cricket Tips for the 34th Match of IPL 2024: Key Players to Watch/Key Stats for LSG vs CSK

Lucknow Super Giants:

  • KL Rahul has looked in good touch without going on to get the big score. He has a good overall record against CSK: 12 inns, 455 runs, avg. 41.36, SR 140.87.
  • Rahul strikes at 187.5 in 40 balls against Shardul Thakur (two dismissals). He has also never been dismissed by Mustafizur Rahman in T20s: 44 runs, 55 runs.
  • Quinton de Kock is averaging in the low 20s in T20s this year. LSG need him to deliver. He too has never been dismissed by Mustafizur Rahman in T20s: 43 balls, 60 runs.
  • Nicholas Pooran has hit 12 of LSG’s 15 sixes this year. Since the start of 2023, Pooran has smashed 581 runs at an average of 41.5 and strike rate of 168.4 in the IPL.
  • Ravi Bishnoi will be crucial in the middle, especially against Dube. He has dismissed Dube once in 20 balls, but the left-hander strikes at 165 against him.
  • Mohsin Khan against Ruturaj Gaikwad will be an interesting battle. The CSK captain has been dismissed three times against left-arm seam this season at an average of 10.7 and strike rate of 110.3.

Chennai Super Kings:

  • Shivam Dube is playing magnificently. He is CSK’s leading scorer this season (242) at an average of 60.50 and strike rate of 163.51.
  • Dube is not just a good spin-hitter. Since 2022, he has scored over 500 runs at an average of 31.9 and strike rate of 155.6 against pace.
  • Ruturaj Gaikwad has a half-century in two innings against LSG. He strikes at 165.71 against them.
  • Rachin Ravindra has hit five double-figure scores in six matches but is yet to cross 50. If he makes a start today, he has it in him to go big.
  • Ravindra Jadeja has dismissed Marcus Stoinis twice in 15 balls in the IPL (24 runs). He also has overall figures of 1/24 off 22 balls against Deepak Hooda.
  • Matheesha Pathirana is bowling beautifully. He was player of the match against MI with 4/28. Today, keep an eye on his matchup with Nicholas Pooran – he has dismissed him three times in 30 balls in T20s, conceding just 31 runs.

Other Stats and Facts

  • Head-to-head: Matches 3, LSG 1, CSK 1, N/R 1.
  • If Deepak Chahar is fit to play, KL Rahul won’t mind. He has scored 134 runs off 83 balls against him without dismissal.
  • Marcus Stoinis vs. CSK: 6 inns, 84 runs, avg. 16.80, SR 137.70.
  • CSK have conceded just 7.03 per over in the middle overs this season. This is the best of any team.

Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium Lucknow Pitch Report and Weather

According to ESPNcricinfo, the game will take place on a red-soil pitch. This kind of surface is more conducive to pace and bounce.

On this ground this season, the average first innings score is 176.33. The team batting first has won twice, but Delhi made light work of LSG’s 167 in the last match.

A very hot evening is forecast with temperatures around 40 degrees.

PAK vs NZ 1st T20 2024 Dream11 Prediction Possible 11 Fantasy Cricket Tips | PAK vs NZ 1st T20 Dream11 Prediction Today | Rawalpindi Pitch Report

With the Indian Premier League in full throttle, international cricket returns in neighbouring Pakistan as the hosts look to get their T20 World Cup preparations in order against an under-strength New Zealand.

Pakistan welcome back Imad Wasim and Mohammad Amir to the international arena and bolster their bowling stocks. Also, eyes will be on their batting approach with some attacking players in their top five.

That being said, while New Zealand are inexperienced, they do have players who can cause problems. Tim Seifert is a dangerous player, while Mark Chapman has a T20I century on this ground. Also, there is some talent in the Black Caps pace attack, so Pakistan need to be focused on the task at hand.

PAK vs NZ 1st T20 2024: Possible Playing XIs

Mohammad Amir and Imad Wasim recently reversed their decisions to retire. They may both line up in this game.

Pakistan: 1. Mohammad Rizwan, 2. Saim Ayub, 3. Babar Azam (c), 4. Fakhar Zaman, 5. Azam Khan (wk), 6. Iftikhar Ahmed, 7. Shadab Khan, 8. Imad Wasim, 9. Naseem Shah, 10. Zaman Khan/Mohammad Amir, 11. Shaheen Shah Afridi

New Zealand will be without Finn Allen and Adam Milne. Tom Blundell has been called up and could make the XI.

  • Tim Seifert vs Pakistan: 10 inns, 245 runs, avg. 27.22, SR 124.36.
  • Tim Robinson could make his T20I debut. He was superb in the 2023/24 Super Smash where he smashed 298 runs in six matches at a strike rate of 187.42.

PBKS vs MI Dream11 Prediction Possible 11 Fantasy Cricket Tips: IPL 2024 33rd Match | PBKS vs MI Dream11 Prediction Today | Mullanpur Pitch Report

IPL’s 17th season is proving to be one of the most thrilling seasons ever with the number of blockbusters on show. Here is the potential for another, with Punjab Kings taking on Mumbai Indians at their home in Mullanpur, Chandigarh.

Both sides have played half a dozen games out of which they have won just two, with the net run rate difference just 0.016 between them. After another close, final-over loss for Punjab against RR, they would want fortunes to go their way even if it happens to be a thrilling contest. It would be interesting to see if Trevor Bayliss’ team manages to get back on the track after two losses back-to-back.

On the other hand, Mumbai Indians come into this game after they were outplayed by the ‘Yellove Army’ in the El-Clásico at Wankhede. The Bombay side promises to be one of the strongest sides on paper but has failed to fulfill expectations.

Undoubtedly, one more mega-contest is on the cards to beguile the world, and both teams need to deliver as the halfway mark of the season is here.

IPL 2024 33rd Match: PBKS vs MI Possible Playing XI

Punjab Kings

Shikhar Dhawan could make his return to the team after missing the last game due to a niggle.

1. Jonny Bairstow (OS), 2. Shikhar Dhawan (c), 3. Prabhsimran Singh, 4. Sam Curran (OS), 5. Liam Livingstone (OS), 6. Jitesh Sharma (wk), 7. Shashank Singh, 8. Ashutosh Sharma, 9. Harpreet Brar, 10. Harshal Patel, 11. Arshdeep Singh, 12. Kagiso Rabada (OS)

Mumbai Indians

It would be interesting to see if Nuwan Thushara is handed his MI debut after a long wait.

1. Rohit Sharma, 2. Ishan Kishan (wk), 3. Suryakumar Yadav, 4. Tilak Varma, 5. Hardik Pandya (c), 6. Tim David (OS), 7. Mohammad Nabi/Nuwan Thushara (OS), 8. Romario Shepherd (OS) 9. Gerald Coetzee (OS), 10. Shreyas Gopal, 11. Jasprit Bumrah, 12. Akash Madhwal

Fantasy Cricket Tips for PBKS vs MI: Key Players to Watch & Key Stats for the 33rd Match of IPL 2024

  • Shikhar Dhawan has scored 901 runs at an average of 39.2 against MI. He is also the top run-scorer for his side so far this season. A big innings from Shikhar is due and it could arrive in this game.
  • Against Bumrah, Dhawan has scored 105 runs in 87 deliveries with just one dismissal.
  • Sam Curran is having a decent time in this IPL as the English all rounder has contributed to his team. He has scored 126 runs along with eight scalps.
  • Curran has scored 133 runs at SR of 156 against MI and has also struck five times with the ball. The team management and fans would want their vice-captain to come good again.
  • Shashank Singh (146 runs at SR of 185) and Ashutosh Sharma (95 runs at SR of 198) have been the biggest positives for the Kings this season. The duo is performing in almost every game and will fancy their chances against MI’s struggling death bowling.
  • Kagiso Rabada has taken nine wickets so far this season and has 12 wickets against MI overall. He’s got great match ups against some of Mumbai batters including Rohit (37 runs off 25 balls, two dismissals) and Suryakumar (55 runs off 39 balls, three dismissals).
  • Arshdeep Singh is also the top wicket taker for his side along with Rabada with nine wickets thus far. He’s picked up eight wickets in six outings against MI. He has dismissed Ishan Kishan thrice in 12 balls in T20s.

Mumbai Indians

  • Rohit Sharma’s hard fought century went in vain in the last game but Mumbai’s king would be roaring to go.
  • Rohit is leading the MI batting line up with 261 runs. He has scored 566 runs against the Punjab franchise at an average of 26.95 and strike rate of 131.93.
  • Suryakumar Yadav’s return has been an adventure as he has scored two ducks and a 17-ball half century in between. Since Punjab have changed their name to Punjab Kings from KXIP, Surya has struck at 173 whilst averaging 40 against them.
  • Surya vs Sam Curran: 52 runs off 19 balls with one dismissal.
  • Tilak Varma has scored 174 runs this season so far, and if he gets going he can be one of the threats for the Punjab. Against PBKS, he has scored 65 runs in 36 balls.
  • Jasprit Bumrah went wicketless in the last game but still has scalped 10 wickets in this season. Bowling against Punjab, he has taken 20 wickets in 15 innings. No doubt he will again be the biggest threat for the opposition.
  • Sam Curran vs Bumrah: 18 runs in 12 balls with two dismissals.

Other Stats and Facts

  • Head to head: Matches 31, PBKS 15, MI 16.
  • In last 6 matches: PBKS 4, MI 2.
  • Ishan Kishan vs Punjab Kings: Innings 12, Runs 239, Balls 204, Avg 21.7, SR 117.
  • Jitesh Sharma vs Mumbai Indians: Innings 3, Runs 104, Balls 49, Avg 104, SR 212.2.
  • Rohit Sharma vs Harshal Patel: 27 runs, 23 balls, 3 dismissals.
  • Hardik Pandya vs Arshdeep Singh: 13 runs, 22 balls, 1 dismissal.
  • Arshdeep Singh at Mullanpur: 3 innings, 7 wickets.

Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Stadium Mullanpur Pitch Report and Weather
