Shams Mulani's All-Round Brilliance Powers India A to Duleep Trophy Victory

Shams Mulani’s All-Round Brilliance Powers India A to Duleep Trophy Victory

By September 15, 2024 0

Mumbai all-rounder Shams Mulani has had a first-class match of his life in the Duleep Trophy 2024 second round. After scoring a match-saving 89 in the first innings for India A against India D, Mulani now starred with the ball and with his quick thinking in the field.

Not only did he pick up four wickets in the game, the 27-year-old was able to inflict a rare type of run out. Yash Dubey, opening the batting for India D, was the victim of a stroke of misfortune and a brilliant piece of game alertness by Mulani.

Striker Ricky Bhui had played a ball bowled by Mulani down the ground, but the ball happened to deflect off non-striker Dubey’s bat. However, Dubey, thinking that the ball had slipped through, attempted to sneak a quick single.

However, an alert Mulani noticed that the ball hadn’t gone too far, and grabbed it and dislodged the stumps at the non-striker’s end. Dubey was late to react, and had to walk back to the pavilion. He was dismissed on a score of 37 off 94 balls.

India A registered a thumping 186-run victory, despite struggling at 94/5 in their first innings. Mulani’s resilient 89 had helped India A to go from there to a total of 290, after which they took a 107-run lead as India D were bowled out for just 183.

Notably, India D captain Shreyas Iyer made a duck, after walking out to bat wearing sunglasses.

In the second innings, centuries by Pratham Singh and Tilak Verma helped India A set a mammoth target of 487. India D were bowled out for 301, with Mulani dismantling the middle order by taking the wickets of Devdutt Padikkal, Shreyas Iyer and Sanju Samson, along with his moment of genius by running out Dubey.

Mulani’s all-round performance has been a key factor in India A’s victory in the Duleep Trophy 2024 second round. His ability to contribute with both bat and ball has made him a valuable asset to the team.

Riyan Parag's Effortless Six Lights Up Duleep Trophy

Riyan Parag’s Effortless Six Lights Up Duleep Trophy

By September 12, 2024 0

Riyan Parag, the young and talented all-rounder from Assam, has once again showcased his exceptional batting skills with an effortless six over long-off in the ongoing Duleep Trophy match between India A and India D. The shot, which has been widely shared on social media, has left fans and experts in awe of Parag’s ability to hit the ball with power and precision.

Parag, who is representing India A in the tournament, played a crucial cameo of 39 runs off just 27 deliveries in the first innings. His innings was characterized by aggressive strokeplay, with the six over long-off being the highlight. The shot came off the bowling of Arshdeep Singh, who is known for his pace and accuracy.

Parag’s six has garnered widespread attention on social media, with fans and his IPL team, Rajasthan Royals, expressing their admiration for the shot. The official Twitter handle of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) shared the video of the six, captioning it as “That shot by Riyan Parag! It was the first 6 of India A’s innings.”

Rajasthan Royals, who have witnessed Parag’s big-hitting prowess firsthand in the IPL, also shared the video on their Twitter handle, praising the young batsman’s skills. “Riyan Parag, you beauty!” the caption read.

Parag’s performance in the Duleep Trophy comes after he missed out on a maiden Test call-up for the series against Bangladesh. However, his impressive form in the domestic tournament could put him back in contention for a place in the national team.

Parag made his white-ball debut for India earlier this year in July, playing in a T20I on the tour of Zimbabwe. He has since played six T20Is and one ODI for India, impressing the selectors with his aggressive batting style and ability to hit the ball cleanly.

Parag’s six in the Duleep Trophy is a testament to his talent and potential. The young batsman has shown that he has the ability to play at the highest level, and he will be one to watch in the years to come.

Rishabh Pant's Prank Steals the Show at Duleep Trophy

Rishabh Pant’s Prank Steals the Show at Duleep Trophy

By September 9, 2024 0

Indian wicket-keeper batter Rishabh Pant injected a dose of humor into the Duleep Trophy encounter between India A and India B in Bengaluru. During the pre-match huddle of the India A team, Pant stealthily joined the group, listening intently to skipper Shubman Gill’s speech.

The incident, captured on video and shared by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), drew mixed reactions on social media. While some found it amusing, others expressed concern that such actions could undermine the seriousness of the tournament.

Pant’s prank came amidst his return to the Test side after a 20-month absence. He was named in India’s 16-man squad for the opening match of the two-Test series against Bangladesh, starting September 19.

The squad also marked the comeback of Virat Kohli, who missed the five-Test series against England earlier this year due to the birth of his second child. Uncapped left-arm fast bowler Yash Dayal received his maiden Test call-up, while fast bowler Mohammed Shami remains on a comeback trail.

India pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah returned to the squad after the T20 World Cup. He is expected to play a couple of more Tests against New Zealand in October-November before the team’s tour of Australia for a five-Test series.

Pant’s return to the national side comes after a challenging period. He met with a road accident in December 2022, which sidelined him from top-flight cricket until the IPL this year. The 26-year-old made his international comeback in the T20 World Cup, where India emerged victorious.

Despite chairman of selectors Ajit Agarkar’s earlier indication that Shami was targeting a return in the first Test against Bangladesh, the right-arm seamer failed to make the cut. Dayal, who had a remarkable redemption with his India call-up, was once smashed for five consecutive sixes by Rinku Singh in an IPL match.

Musheer Khan's 181 Powers India B to Duleep Trophy Victory

Musheer Khan’s 181 Powers India B to Duleep Trophy Victory

By September 8, 2024 0

Musheer Khan’s scintillating 181-run knock in the first innings propelled India B to a 76-run victory over India A in the opening round of the Duleep Trophy at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium. The all-rounder’s gritty performance laid the foundation for India B’s triumph.

Khan, who had impressed in the Ranji Trophy, seized the opportunity to showcase his talent in the Duleep Trophy. On the opening day, he displayed remarkable temperament and determination, scoring a magnificent 181 runs off 373 deliveries. His innings, which included 16 fours and five sixes, lifted India B from a precarious 94/7 to a respectable 321 in the first innings.

This total proved crucial, giving India B a 90-run lead that ultimately proved decisive. Khan’s partnership with Navdeep Saini was particularly noteworthy, with the all-rounder providing constant encouragement from the non-striker’s end.

“My preparation was really good with my father. I had done well in Ranji so I knew I could get an opportunity here. Every ball I was encouraging him from the non-striker’s end to play it out,” said Khan after being named Player of the Match.

India B skipper Abhimanyu Easwaran expressed his delight at his team’s victory, which earned them six points in the Duleep Trophy. “We were looking to bowl first. Coming back from 90/7 to win the game is special. To be on the winning side is really good,” he said.

In contrast, India A captain Shubman Gill lamented his team’s mistakes in terms of batting and bowling strategies. “Musheer and Saini played really well. Seeing that there’s not much happening from the wicket, we could’ve gone to the bouncer option earlier to Saini,” he said.

“But out there we went for the option we felt was the best. The intensity with which we bowled in the second innings was commendable. Until about lunch time we were talking that if we get a 100-run partnership we could’ve got the target,” Gill added.

India A will now face India D, while India B will take on India C in Anantpur from September 12.

Akash Deep’s exceptional bowling performance has propelled India A to the brink of victory in the first-round match of the Duleep Trophy against India B. The right-arm pacer’s five-wicket haul in the second innings has set India A a target of 275 to win with ample time remaining on the final day.

His success extended to white-ball cricket, earning him an Indian Premier League contract with Royal Challengers Bangalore in 2021. Since then, he has continued to impress with his pace and accuracy.

India A will now look to capitalize on Deep’s heroics and secure victory on the final day. The match promises to be an exciting contest, with India B needing to produce a remarkable batting performance to overcome the deficit.
