No Virat Kohli but India eyeing to continue winning run

Having already attained an unassailable 3-0 lead in the 5 match ODI series, India are eyeing to extend their dominance over New Zealand as the focus shifts to Hamilton for the 4th ODI. Though the visitors will be without the services of skipper Virat Kohli for the rest of the tour, Rohit Sharma is all set to fill in his boots once again. India has lost just 1 of the  8 ODIs under the Mumbai lad and Rohit will too look to enhance his record. Though the men in blue lost at this venue in 2014, but the tables have now turned in India's favour.

2 things that have remained constant in the IPL&nbsp;in last few years are that Mumbai&nbsp;Indians lose their opening game and they dominate KKR. Well both came true this season as well as MI stunned Kolkata&nbsp;on Tuesday night and pulled off a 10-run win.&nbsp;Eoin Morgan's decision to bowl first proved right as Mumbai were bowled out for 152. Andre Russell ran through their batting in the death with a 5-wicket-haul. Chasing which KKR raced to 72 without losing a wicket. That's when the game turned on its head. Rahul&nbsp;Chahar&nbsp;took 4 wickets as KKR&nbsp;lost 7 wickets for 68 runs and managed 142/7. Mumbai&nbsp;not just took their head-to-head record against KKR&nbsp;to 22-6 but Rohit&nbsp;Sharma&nbsp;now has 14 wins vs the Knights as captain, joint most along with MS Dhoni.&nbsp;

In what can be a massive blow to the Rajasthan Royals, star all-rounder Ben Stokes has reportedly been ruled out of IPL 2021. According to The Independen

In a massive blow to the Rajasthan&nbsp;Royals, star all-rounder Ben Stokes has been ruled out of IPL&nbsp;2021. Stokes is out with a broken hand which he injured while catching Chris Gayle in Rajasthan's first game against Punjab Kings. He though came out to bat after that but was dismissed for a duck. Royals in a statement said that he will stay with the squad and support the rest of the group in the upcoming matches.

After a disappointing 1st game, Sunrisers Hyderabad would be eager to open their 2021 campaign but a Royal Challenge awaits David Warner's men. SRH went down

After a disappointing 1st game, Sunrisers&nbsp;Hyderabad would be eager to open their 2021 campaign but a Royal Challenge awaits David Warner's men. SRH&nbsp;went down fighting against KKR&nbsp;but still looked impressive as a unit. Though Hyderabad are expected to persist with Saha at the top, they still have an option of reuniting Jonny&nbsp;Bairstow&nbsp;with David Warner. RCB&nbsp;on the other hand look rather settled after edging out defending champions Mumbai&nbsp;Indians in their first game. Though they missed a talented Devdutt&nbsp;Padikkal&nbsp;but with Virat&nbsp;Kohli&nbsp;opening, their batting order looks stable. However, SRH&nbsp;have history by their side as they hold a 10-7 head-to-head record vs Bangalore, something they would want to consolidate further.

In some delighting news for the Rajasthan&nbsp;Royals, fast bowler Jofra&nbsp;Archer&nbsp;has been cleared to resume light training this week by his consultant. He underwent surgery on his right hand following a freak accident at his home in January.&nbsp;ECB&nbsp;though said in a statement that no decision has been made as yet on when Archer is due to return to playing. Last month, Archer underwent surgery to remove a glass fragment from a tendon on his right hand after an attempt to clean his fish tank went wrong&nbsp;at home in January.

In a huge honour for India's Bhuvneshwar&nbsp;Kumar, he has been named ICC Men&rsquo;s Player of the Month for March, for his impressive performances in the recently concluded limited-overs series against England.&nbsp;He was chosen the winner for the month by fans and the ICC voting academy.

Mumbai Indians' skipper Rohit Sharma whose team is all set to face Kolkata Knight Riders on Tuesday evening, feels that he needs to a lot of maintenance

Mumbai&nbsp;Indians' skipper Rohit&nbsp;Sharma&nbsp;feels that he needs to a lot of maintenance work on himself. In a video posted on Mumbai&nbsp;Indians' official Twitter handle, Sharma spoke about his hamstring injury that he incurred&nbsp;during last year's IPL. His injury forced him to miss some parts of IPL&nbsp;and some matches of the Australian tour. The skipper said that there's a lot of maintenance&nbsp;work that he has to keep doing just to maintain his lower body and hamstring.&nbsp;

Despite playing his debut match, Chetan Sakariya proved to Rajasthan Royals how clinical he would be especially in Jofra Archer's absence

It was his&nbsp;IPL&nbsp;debut but&nbsp;Chetan&nbsp;Sakariya&nbsp;played like a veteran for&nbsp;Rajasthan&nbsp;Royals in their first game vs Punjab Kings. The 23-year-old who knocked out 3 important wickets for his side, has a tragic&nbsp;story of successfully making it through the troubled waters.&nbsp; In his interview with ESPNcricinfo, Sakariya, the left-arm swing bowler who hails from&nbsp;Rajkot, revealed&nbsp;that he lost his younger brother 2 weeks before getting picked in the 2021&nbsp;IPL&nbsp;auctions.&nbsp; Sakariya&nbsp;who was picked by Rajasthan&nbsp;for 1.2 cr comes from a humble background. Even before chances came to him, the self-taught&nbsp;Gujarat&nbsp;boy has been&nbsp;the lone breadwinner of his family as his father was forced to shut down his tempo business due to ill health. Due to his poor financial condition, Sakariya told ESPNcricinfo that he did not even have enough money to buy boots for himself. However, Sheldon Jackson came to his rescue as he gifted him his first pair of boots after he had dismissed him in the nets.&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; IPL&nbsp;gave a platform to the young talent, who&nbsp;got&nbsp;noticed after he picked 12 wickets in 5 Syed Mushtaq&nbsp;Ali T20 matches at an economy of 4.90.

Although&nbsp;Sanju&nbsp;Samson's scintillating ton could not help Rajasthan Royals as they lost their first match of the season vs Punjab Kings, the debutant&nbsp;captain still feels that the second part of his innings was the best he ever played. The 26-year-old scored a sparkling 119 in 63 balls while chasing a daunting target of 222 set by Punjab, who won the 4th IPL match by mere 4 runs. Samson who hit 12 fours and 7 sixes said that he was not timing his shots well in the first half, but by the second half, he was into his rhythm as he started to play his shots. Though Samson's dismissal came in a heartbreaking manner in the final over, he said that he could not have done better than that and that his team played well.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Star batsman Chris Gayle made history in Punjab Kings' opening match of the ongoing IPL&nbsp;season as he smashed his 350th IPL six against Rajasthan&nbsp;Royals on Monday evening.
The big-hitting batsman who smashed 2 sixes in yesterday's match has now hit a total of 351 sixes in his&nbsp;IPL&nbsp;career of 133 matches.&nbsp;Gayle scored a prolific 40 off 29 balls against Rajasthan. Interestingly, AB de Villiers who occupies the second position with his 237 sixes is far behind the 41-year-old Jamaican.&nbsp;

It's not often that despite a win, the heart goes out to the losing side, but that's exactly what happened on Monday night. Punjab Kings avoided a scare as they beat Rajasthan Royals by 4 runs, that after Sanju Samson's 119-run knock went in vain. Put into bat, Punjab were powered to 221/6, courtesy KL Rahul's 50-ball-91. Chasing which the Royals were reduced to 70/3 with Ben Stokes and Jos Buttler back in the hut. That's when Samson got going and became the first ever player to mash a century on captaincy debut in IPL. His 3rd IPL ton though couldn't take his side over the finish line as he was dismissed off the last ball.&nbsp;Samson's 119 is the highest score in a losing cause in IPL.

Like every season when they've won a title, Mumbai Indians lost their opening game of IPL but the defending champions will now be focused to return to winning

Like every season when they've won a title, Mumbai Indians lost their opening game of IPL&nbsp;but the defending champions will now be focused&nbsp;to return to winning ways. Opener and wicketkeeper Quinton de Kock is expected to return for Mumbai&nbsp;which will provide a slightly more stable Playing XI. A loss in the first game hasn't affected Rohit&nbsp;Sharma&nbsp;who will also be looking to score some big runs for his team. The Kolkata&nbsp;Knight Riders on the other hand finished with a win in their opening game but that wasn't convincing enough by any standards. The middle-order looked brittle in the first game and along with Andre Russell's form, the Knight Riders are yet to fire all cylinders so far. With Mumbai&nbsp;being their Achilles' heel, KKR&nbsp;will be hoping to improve their head to head record as they have won only 6 games from 27 outings.&nbsp;

Yuzvendra&nbsp;Chahal&nbsp;has made many batsmen dance to the tune of his bowling but RCB's&nbsp;spin&nbsp;spearhead is now doing that in chess as well. Chahal&nbsp;shared a picture of him taking on AB de Villiers, Mohammed Siraj and Washington Sundar&nbsp;in a game of chess not one on one but all 3 RCB&nbsp;teammates at once. Chahal&nbsp;is a former national Under-12 chess champion and has represented India at the World Youth Chess Championship.

VAR or&nbsp;video assistant&nbsp;referee was once again under the&nbsp;spotlight as Manchester United schooled Tottenham on Sunday&nbsp;night in the Premier League. First, a goal from Edinson&nbsp;Cavani&nbsp;was disallowed after the referee consulted the VAR&nbsp;for a possible foul against Spurs' Son&nbsp;Heung&nbsp;Min. A few minutes later Son gave Spurs the opening goal which remained the only strike of the 1st half.&nbsp;Pushed into the corner, Manchester United came back stronger and scored thrice in the 2nd half including a goal each from Fred, Cavani,&nbsp;and Mason Greenwood to finish&nbsp;the match 3-1 and collect all 3 points. The win reduces the gap between the two Manchester clubs to 9 points as United has played a game less.&nbsp;
