Andre Russell had recently suffered from COVID-19 virus during West Indies' tour to Sri Lanka last month. Hence the Caribbean player has been out of action for some time but should start IPL afresh. After having a dull IPL 2020, he will be ready to have a blast in the 14th season of Indian Premier League.

Morgan to join KKR soon

Russell has been a match winner for the Kolkata based franchise. In IPL 2019, the destructive batsman had scored over 500 runs, with a strike rate close to 200. So far in 74 IPL games he has smashed 129 sixes with a strike rate over 180. He has been pretty handy with the ball too. Like always he will be surely utilized by the KKR management to take wickets and give important breakthroughs.

KKR skipper Eoin Morgan is currently on national duty in Pune as he is leading England for a three-match ODI series concluding on March 28 against India. Morgan will be joining his IPL team next week reportedly. As per IPL protocol, all players need to undergo a mandatory quarantine after arriving in the IPL bio-bubble. Former IPL captain Dinesh Karthik, Rahul Tripathi and Kamlesh Nagarkoti were the first to arrive. Kolkata Knight Riders are constantly keeping the fans updated about the arrival of players.

Image
  Chennai Super Kings had a lot to do in the auction for IPL 2021 . They had a forgettable tournament last year. For the first time in the history of Indian Premier League, MS Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings ended the tournament at the 7th position. In the IPL auction, therefore, they had to buy some key players for a strong comeback. It was interesting to see Chennai Super Kings going for Cheteshwar Pujara. Not a lot would have thought of Pujara making it to an IPL side. While they went for some base price buys, they stacked up two players for a total of 16.25 crore. The challenge for Chennai Super Kings was to get some effective and young players on board to strengthen the core balance. K Gowtham and Moeen Ali can serve them as the all-rounders. However, they were in need of a back-up opener. Chennai Super Kings Retained Players: MS Dhoni, Suresh Raina, Ambati Rayudu, KM Asif, Deepak Chahar, Dwayne Bravo, Faf du Plessis, Imran Tahir, N Jagadeesan, Karn Sharma, Lungi Ngidi, M...

Amit Mishra shares his thoughts on spin bowling

Image
  India has produced a good number of quality spinners throughout the year but there are very few wrist spinners available and Amit Mishra is one of them. He feels that wrist spin is a difficult craft that can only be mastered with hours of honing the skill sets and also a leader who backs the player in difficult moments of the game. “Any leg-spinner needs a good captain because when the bowler is under attack, you need that sort of a skipper, who would back you to the hilt and give you that requisite confidence even when you have gone for a few runs,” Mishra told PTI in an exclusive interview. “A captain who basically understands the psyche of a leg-spinner.” Amit Mishra, who will be seen in action for Delhi Capitals this IPL season in India, has played 68 games across formats for India and one of the successful bowlers in IPL too. Meanwhile, in India barring Yuzvendra Chahal, Kuldeep Yadav and Rahul Chahar, there aren’t many quality leg-break bowlers available too as well. ...

RCB gave a whopping Rs 14.25 crore for Maxwell, who was released by Punjab Kings earlier the mini-auction in Chennai in February this year. The Australian big-hitting all-rounder has a very poor record in the IPL but he was still in demand at the mini-auction in February. However, even before the auction, Maxwell had shared his desire to play for RCB under Kohli as well, and he was also keen on having Maxwell in his squad. "We wanted Maxi, specifically targeted him at the auction in February. You obviously feel great when things end up happening to where you thought they would. Zamps sent me that picture of them (Zampa and Maxwell) at a practice session handing over the RCB cap even before the auction happened. Zamps a very fun...
