Gambhir’s strict speech after LSG’s huge loss; ‘We gave up. We were weak’
Following the IPL franchise’s heavy 62-run defeat to Gujarat Titans in Pune on Tuesday, former cricketer Gautam Gambhir delivered a stern dressing room speech to all players of the Lucknow Super Giants. LSG struggled with the bat, being bowled out for just 82 in a 145-run chase. Only two players, Quinton de Kock and Deepak Hooda, reached double figures as the rest of the batting collapsed under the pressure of Rashid Khan’s 4/24 and the GT bowlers’ discipline. In three overs, Mohammed Shami conceded only five runs, while R Sai Kishore and Yash Dayal each took two wickets.
After a long night, team mentor Gambhir addressed the team with encouraging words while highlighting the areas where the team fell short on Tuesday evening.
“There’s nothing wrong with losing, after all. It’s perfectly fine. One team must win, while the other must lose. However, there are numerous flaws in giving me. I thought we’d given up today. We were weak, and being weak in a tournament like the IPL or in sports has no place. That is the source of the issue. In this competition, we have defeated teams and played excellent cricket. But today I realised that we were missing something more important: game sense “According to Gambhir.
“We knew they bowled well, and we expect them to continue to do so. You’re competing against international bowlers in a world-class competition. Without a doubt, we want people to challenge us. That is why we participate in sports. We practise every day because we enjoy being challenged.”
Gujarat Titans became the first team to qualify for the IPL 2022 playoffs as a result of the result, while LSG are still looking for at least one more win to join the Titans in the top four. LSG has two more league games left, against Rajasthan Royals on May 15 and Kolkata Knight Riders on May 18.

Mumbai defeats Vidarbha by 169 runs to win the 42nd Ranji Trophy, capping an eight-year reign.
Mumbai overcame Vidarbha by 169 runs in the Wankhede Stadium final on Thursday to end an eight-year drought for a record-tying 42nd Ranji Trophy victory. Vidarbha put up a valiant fight in the second inning to chase a massive 538 runs, but on Day 5, they were eventually bowled out for 368.
Vidarbha put up a valiant battle on Day 5 of the final, with captain Akshay Wadkar and Harsh Dubey leading the team’s struggle against Ajinkya Rahane’s troops. Vidarbha scored 81 runs in the opening session without losing a wicket thanks to the two’s resolute stance at the crease, which frustrated the home team.
Mumbai defeated Vidarbha by a commanding 169 runs in the Ranji Trophy final, putting on an outstanding display.
Following lunch, Wadkar gave Vidarbha’s innings a boost with a magnificent century, showcasing his batting prowess. But when it was time to step it up, Tanush Kotian got his wicket by lbw-ing Wadkar.
Following the captain’s exit, Vidarbha’s batting lineup came under increasing pressure. Even Dubey, who showed fortitude by hitting a steely 65 off 128 deliveries, gave in to the pressure of the scoreboard.
Mumbai’s bowlers strengthened their hold on the game as the innings went on. Vidarbha’s bottom order offered little resistance as Mumbai quickly completed the innings in just the next 25 deliveries.
Ajinkya Rahane gave the ball to Dhawal Kulkarni in a crucial moment following the loss of the ninth wicket in his final domestic encounter. With just his third ball of the spell, Kulkarni quickly secured the vital wicket of Umesh Yadav, securing Mumbai’s 42nd championship.
Mumbai won their first Ranji Trophy since 2016. The domestic powerhouses increased their lead over other teams in the standings for the most trophies won in the first-class competition. With Karnataka coming in a distant second, no other team has won the Ranji Trophy more times than this one.
