Preity Zinta praises Rohit Sharma, calls him powerhouse of talent
Just over two weeks after Preity Zinta denied rumors that she wanted Rohit Sharma to lead the Punjab Kings, the owner of PBKS took to social media platform X to praise the former Mumbai Indians captain. Zinta answered questions from her fans and described Rohit as a powerhouse of talent, suggesting that it wouldn’t be a bad idea to nominate him as PBKS leader in the future.
However, for the Hitman, the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 hasn’t gone as expected. The Mumbai Indians are virtually out of the playoff race, which means that Rohit’s squad will likely be eliminated early. This season, some MI players have failed, and even Rohit’s performances haven’t been enough to improve the team’s morale. Even though Rohit is clearly going through difficult circumstances, Bollywood actor and co-owner of the Punjab Kings Preity Zinta had nothing but love for him.
With just three wins in their last eleven matches, the Mumbai Indians are currently in the bottom of the points table and their only option is to move up the standings when they win against Sunrisers Hyderabad today.
Hardik Pandya’s team has lost eight of their 11 games this season, so far, making it seem nearly impossible for them to have things their way given how their campaign has started out. In the majority of their games, they have been unable to put up a cohesive performance and have lost games despite dominating one area of the game.
The Delhi Capitals and Royal Challengers Bengaluru are the other two of the original eight clubs that have never claimed an IPL championship, along with Zinta’s PBKS. In 16 years have PBKS made only twice to the Playoffs; their best performance came in 2015, when they were runner-up to Kolkata Knight Riders. Even though it can be excruciatingly difficult to wait for an elusive IPL victory, Zinta manages to remain positive.

T20 World Cup: Co-host West Indies receives terror threat from Pakistan
Cricket West Indies (CWI) CEO Jonny Graves said that the safety and security of everyone at the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 is their number one priority.
North Pakistan had issued a terror threat against the West Indies, who are co-hosting the T20 World Cup today, May 6. However, West Indies (CWI) assured the public that every safety measure has been done.
The Caribbean islands have received warnings about possible terror threats coming from North Pakistan, according to a trustworthy source with firsthand knowledge of the circumstances. From June 1 to June 29, the US and the West Indies will host the T20 World Cup.
World Cup matches in Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados, Guyana, Saint Lucia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, and Trinidad and Tobago will take place in the West Indies. In addition, there are matches in the US cities of Florida, New York, and Texas; however, there appears to be no danger to the games in the US. Barbados will host the final after the two semifinals are held in Trinidad and Guyana.
A source said that they are closely monitoring the situation and maintaining close communication with relevant authorities. Continuous evaluation of security measures is underway to ensure appropriate plans are in place to mitigate any identified risks, they added.
The severity of the problem has increased with the assignment of blame for the danger to IS Khorasan. Trinidad Prime Minister Keith Rowley said that security forces have protocols in place to handle any threats to matches.
As per the report, the Barbados regional security officials are monitoring potential threats to the ICC event in addition to the fact that intelligence of a potential threat to the World Cup has been received through Pro-Islamic State (Daesh) through the media group Nashir Pakistan.
Regarding India, the Men in Blue will face off against Ireland at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York in their season-opening match. On June 9, they will play their next game at the same location against their bitter rivals, Pakistan. The team captained by Rohit Sharma will play the United States in their subsequent game in New York, and then they will play Canada in their last group-stage encounter at the Central Broward Regional Park Stadium Turf Ground in Lauderhill, Florida.

IPL 2024: Sunil Narine smashes 81 as Kolkata Knight Riders beat Lucknow Super Giants by 98 runs
Sunil Narine smashed 81 runs off 39 balls and posted a total of 235 runs on the board for the loss of 6 wickets in 20 overs.
Shreyas Iyer-led Kolkata Knight Riders created history on Sunday during the IPL 2024 match played at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket stadium in Lucknow as it became the first team to reach a score of 200-plus runs in a T20 match played at the 50,000 seater stadium in Lucknow.
Sunil Narine smashed 81 runs off 39 balls and posted a total of 235 runs on the board for the loss of 6 wickets in 20 overs. He thrashed the Lucknow Super Giants bowlers all over the park for fun, hitting 6 fours and 7 sixes. In defense of the huge total, Narine returned figures of 1 for 22 in his 4 overs. Harshit Rana was the pick of the KKR bowlers with figures of 3 for 24 in 3.1 overs as LSG were restricted for 137 runs.
The Lucknow Super Giants innings did not really take off. KL Rahul and Marcus Stoinis forged a 50 run partnership off 33 balls but it was not enough to cause serious problems for Kolkata Knight Riders. Once the partnership was broken, the LSG innings collapsed as the last 9 wickets fell for 67 runs, as the required rate went out of control.
Varun Chakravarthy and Harshit Rana took 3 wickets each. Andre Russell took 2. And Ramandeep took 2 catches; the first catch was one of the most spectacular of the IPL season. Salt played aggressively, hitting 24 runs off the first 9 balls he faced. But he was soon out for 32 runs off 14 deliveries, and from then onwards, it was the Sunil Narine show.
The Kolkata Knight Riders has moved past the Rajasthan Royal to reach the 1st position in the IPL points table. Kolkata Knight Riders has total of 16 points from 11 matches played so far and their net run rate (+1.453) is better than Rajasthan Royals (+0.622).
