IPL 2020: Ambati Rayudu, du Plessis helps Chennai Super Kings to beat Mumbai Indians in IPL 2020 first match

 News Cover: Chennai Super Kings beat Mumbai Indians by five wickets in the first match of IPL Season 13, with an impressive batting from Ambati Raidu and Faf du Plessis. 

Ambati Raidu and du Plessis were the major contributors to the chennai side. du Plessis was not out for 55 off 44 balls. After Ambati Raidu was out, when it seemed that the Chennai team would come in front of Jasprit Bumrah, Duplasi held one end and returned to the pavilion by wining the team. 

At one point, the contest was quite tense for Chennai, but Dhoni again took a surprise decision when he sent english young all-rounder Sam Curran in his place. Then Chennai needed 29 runs to win in three overs, and at that time Sam Curran scored 18 off 2 sixes off 6 balls to ensure that chennai would win the match from here and soon du Plessis sealed it.

Raidu's brilliant innings

Ambati Rayud will be remembered. Failed to impress the selectors for the 2019 World Cup. But the discussion was more of his tweet than that. In which he wrote, he has ordered three dimensional glasses.

In fact, the selectors had said at the team selection press conference that vijay Shankar, who played three dimensional cricket, has been selected in place of Ambati Raidu. Then he retired.

The same Ambati Raidu emerged as the star in the first match from Chennai. He scored 71 off 48 balls with the help of six fours and three sixes. His innings eased Chennai's victory.

Raidu and Duplasi shared 115 runs in 14 overs for the third wicket.

Chennai's bad start

Earlier, Chennai had a very bad start. Shane Watson was out for four in the first over. Murali Vijay had returned to the pavilion with just one run. After losing two wickets for six runs in two overs, Ambati Raidu and du Plessis beat Chennai to victory.

Rohit Sharma was brilliant with a four off the first ball. With Quinton de Kock, Rohit added 45 runs in the first four overs. But the first turning point of the match came in the fifth over. When Rohit Sharma and Quinton de Kock returned to the pavilion.

Rohit Sharma was caught in Piyush Chawla's turn and played in the air at mid-off while Quinton Dekock was sent to the pavilion by Sam Karan.

IPL 2020: N Srinivasan said this big thing about Suresh Raina's future in CSK

News Cover: In the Indian Premier League (IPL), the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) camp, which is suffering from the havoc of the Corona transition, is expected to remove all differences. Due to the sudden return of India to Suresh Raina, the management of the Chennai team surrounded by controversies has raised the possibility of this legendary batsman returning to the team. 

Just 24 hours ago, after raiding Raina for the controversy, former BCCI president and owner of India Cement's mother company India Cement N. Srinivasan (N Srinivasan) now softened his stand and said that the doors of the team should always be open for him. 

Srinivasan said that his earlier statement was presented by the media from the wrong perspective. In an interview to a newspaper, former ICC President Srinivasan said, Raina's contribution to Chennai Super Kings is priceless. It is important to understand what circumstances they are going through at the moment and we should leave them a little different. When I said 'cricketers are like prima donas', I did not mean negative. 

Let me tell you that Raina has been associated with the Chennai team since the first season and is just the second cricketer to score 5000+ runs, playing the most 193 matches in the IPL. The vice-captain of the Chennai team, Suresh Raina, had suddenly returned from the UAE, and the team called it a comeback for personal reasons. But later it was revealed that Raina was not happy with the facilities he got.

Srinivasan would repent and expressed great displeasure after the return of Raina earlier. Then he said that if a cricketer is not happy then he should go back. He had praised MS Dhoni's captaincy and said that Dhoni has handled all the situation and assured the entire team on video call that everything is safe. 

Srinivasan further said that the season has not even started yet and Raina will definitely feel what he has missed. This includes all the money (Rs 11 crore) that he is going to lose. He had said that Dhoni's leadership is strong and his ability to remain calm has benefited the team immensely over the years. 

2020 is being organized in UAE this time due to bad conditions caused by Coronavirus in India. Despite two players from his team Chennai Super Kings and 11 support staff being found to be Corona positive, Srinu is sure that the IPL is not in danger and the move to shift it to UAE will not go in vain.

He said, IPL is proud of India and has become a global benchmark. He said, whatever has been achieved in these 13 years is amazing. We all have to save it and work together to make it bigger.

Ben Stokes may be out of IPL 2020, know what is the reason

News Cover: There is a big setback in IPL 2020. Whether Suresh Raina is withdrawn from the IPL or Ken Richardson of Royal Challengers Bangalore is eliminated from the tournament. Fans are now hoping that there will be no such shock, but now the news is not coming good from the Rajasthan Royals camp. Rajasthan Royals are worried about their most important player, Ben Stokes, in fact, questions are being raised about his presence for the IPL.

Let us know that Ben Stocks has returned to his home in New Zealand. His father is fighting a battle with brain cancer, due to which the stocks have returned to him. Stocks also played only one match against Pakistan and then withdrew from the series. Stock has told that when he came to know about his father's cancer, he could not sleep for about a week and it was the right decision to return home from that point of view.

This England star player will not play for the national team at this time, in such a situation Stokes will not take part in the series between England and Australia from September 4. Due to this, dark clouds have started looming even when Stokes plays in IPL. However, no statement has been released from Rajasthan Royals regarding the stock.
