World Cup 2023: Big Blow for India as Hardik Pandya Ruled out of the ODI World Cup due to Ankle Injury
Big Blow for India as Hardik Pandya Ruled out of the ODI World Cup due to Ankle Injury: After having scans, Hardik was referred to the National Cricket Academy (NCA) to receive additional care from an English expert.
It was anticipated that he would be eligible again for the tournament’s latter phases, which include league-stage matches against the Netherlands and South Africa in addition to the knockout stages.

The team management has chosen to replace Hardik with pacer Prasidh Krishna as the latter was unable to finish his recuperation in a timely manner. The personnel change in the squad was authorized on Saturday by the Event Technical Committee of the event.
Prasidh Krishna will therefore be qualified to participate in the Men in Blue’s upcoming match against South Africa, should they choose to do so.
Team India benched fellow all-rounder Shardul Thakur in Hardik Pandya’s absence, and by playing specialists Mohammed Shami and Suryakumar Yadav, they jeopardized their batting depth.

However, the change has worked wonders for the side, with Suryakumar being among the runs, coming down the order after the in-form top order has wreaked havoc.
Shami, on the other hand, has taken 14 wickets in three matches and has forged a deadly trio with fellow pacers Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj.

Similar to Jasprit Bumrah, Prasidh Krishna too had a protracted injury layoff. In addition to playing in the 2023 Asia Cup and the bilateral ODI series against Australia ahead of the World Cup, he made his comeback during the T20I series against Ireland.
MS Dhoni denies Handshakes With RCB Cricketers, Virat Kohli Then Does This: Was MS Dhoni’s match versus Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 his final one? Certainly, the cricket community hopes that isn’t the case.
Particularly when he struck a six off the first ball of the match’s last over, Dhoni was supposed to finish the game.

However, Yash Dayal of RCB scored on the second delivery to remove the former captain of CSK and turn the tide of the match in his team’s favor.
On social media, a depressing video has surfaced that shows Dhoni skipping the post-match handshakes with RCB players and going back to the dressing room.
When the RCB players finished their celebration and shook hands with the CSK players, Dhoni, who hasn’t been totally fit the whole season, was in front of the line. But after a little period, Dhoni made the decision to head back to the dressing room.

Although it’s unclear if Dhoni and the RCB playing XI shook hands afterwards, the seasoned wicketkeeper batting decided to head back to the dressing room at that particular moment rather than waiting for the players of the other team.
In another video, it can be seen that Virat Kohli went after Dhoni to the dressing room, probably to shake hands with him after missing out on the same during their time on the field.

This year’s IPL Final and Qualifier 2 are slated to take place in Chepauk, home field of CSK. Fans have been anticipating to witness Dhoni and his squad raise the trophy in front of their home crowd on May 26 ever since this news was announced. Nevertheless, the unpredictable season resulted in the Chennai team not even qualifying for the postseason.
MS Dhoni to Announce Retirement Soon? Former CSK Cricketer Says ‘There is a Reason…’: Chennai Super Kings’ IPL 2024 campaign comes to a sad end on Saturday as they were defeated by Royal Challengers Bengaluru by an aggregate score of 27 runs.
The topic of discussion ever since the loss and CSK’s elimination from the IPL this year has been whether MS Dhoni would declare his retirement or whether the seasoned wicketkeeper will return for one final game in the IPL 2025.

According to pundit and former CSK batsman Robin Uthappa, Dhoni will return to the Yellow uniform for the next IPL season.
In an interaction with JioCinema, Uthappa said, “I don’t think we have seen the last of MS. He is not someone who takes these things lightly. He will come back roaring for sure,” Uthappa said while speaking on JioCinema.
“Even with the narrative, I have seen him bat only in the last 4 or 5 overs, there is a reason for it. He had a calf injury which they initially thought perhaps was a niggle, but it was a little more grave than that. Because of that, he had to manage himself and often as he does, in international cricket and for CSK, he figured out a way to be useful and contribute to CSK,” the former CSK batter added.

Notably, Dhoni’s 25-run (off 13 balls) innings on Saturday gave CSK a chance to compete against RCB. Ultimately, CSK required 17 runs from the last over in order to go to the playoffs. As he has so often done in the past, MS Dhoni opened the over with a huge six to put rookie Yash Dayal under strain.
But the left-hander bounced back, dismissing Dhoni and adding a dot ball and a single in the next over. Then, CSK needed 10 runs in only two balls, but Yash Dayal’s slower deliveries were too much for a well-conditioned Ravindra Jadeja to handle.
