Piyush Chawla becomes India’s highest wicket-taker in T20s, Mohammad Nabi sets new catching record

Last Friday, in the 55th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 between the Mumbai Indians and Abu Dhabi’s Hyderabad Sunrisers, leg spinner Piyush Chawla became the highest in India’s T20 cricket Goalkeeper. Piyush Chawla represented the Mumbai Indians (MI) for the first time.

He took over Mohammad Nabi’s wicket in the 9th game of SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH), surpassing Amit Mishra and creating a new Indian team with 263 scalps. Record. The leg spin partner Mishra was the previous record holder. He scored 262 wickets in 236 games, and now Chawla has one more than Mishra in 249 games. The two bowlers are also the top five goalkeepers in the Indian Premier League (IPL). Mishra ranks second on the list with 166 wickets, while Chawla ranks fourth with 157 scalps.

At the same time, former Afghan captain Mohamed Nabi also set a new record in the game. He received the ball 5 times in the first game and set a new IPL record. Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav used the heroic performance of bats to allow MI to obtain the highest T20 overall result and beat SRH with 42 consecutive victories, but this was not enough to help the defending champion secure a place in the playoffs in Friday’s IPL 2021.

First hitting the ball, Mumbai hit 235/9 in 20 games-their highest ever T20 total-but failed to limit the SRH below 65, preventing MI from reaching playoff standards at Sheikh Zayed Stadium. In the end, Manish Pandey’s special efforts were in vain, because MI won the game by 42 points, but the leader in the league was the Kolkata Cavaliers led by Eoin Morgan. It is worth noting that Mumbai must beat SRH by 171 points or more in order to surpass the Kolkata Cavaliers in the standings and qualify for the play-offs.

Gambhir acknowledges that his “sole regret in seven years of captaincy” is Suryakumar Yadav: “KKR failed to recognise his potential.”

Throughout his incredible career with the Mumbai Indians since 2018, Suryakumar Yadav has become a household name. He has established himself as a vital member of the batting lineup and is seen as the team’s future leader. He was able to establish himself in the Indian white-ball team and get to the top of the IC batting rankings in the format because to his valiant efforts at MI. But before he was let away, Suryakumar was a member of the Kolkata Knight Riders lineup from 2014 to 2017. When former captain Gautam Gambhir reflects on the two IPL titles won by KKR during that time, he named the star player from India his greatest regret.

KKR featured Suryakumar Yadav from 2014 to 2017.

In 2012, Suryakumar began his IPL career with the Mumbai Indians, appearing in just one match before being cut loose the following year. He was signed by KKR in 2014, and he won the championship in his first campaign there. The right-handed batter scored 608 runs in 54 games during his four-year tenure with the team, although the majority of those runs were scored as a lower middle order hitter.

In an interview with Sportskeeda on Monday, Gambhir said that his biggest regret as KKR captain is that he failed to recognise Suryakumar’s ability or his ideal batting position in the lineup.

Finding and showcasing the greatest potential is the responsibility of a leader. If there’s one thing I regret from my seven years as captain, it’s that neither I nor the squad were able to fully utilise Suryakumar Yadav. And combinations were the key to the cause. At No. 3, you may only play one person. As a leader, you also need to consider the other ten players in the starting lineup. Although he was just as excellent at No. 7, he would have been far more effective at No. 3, he said.

Gambhir went on to praise Suruyakumar for being a team player, citing the reason behind his appointment as the team’s vice-captain in 2015.

He was a team player as well. A good player may be anyone, but becoming a team player takes skill. Playing him at No. 6 or 7 or benching him, he was constantly grinning and eager to contribute to the squad. He went on, “That’s why we named him vice captain.”
