Despite Karthik being in the form of his life, Sanjay Manjrekar reckons that the veteran wicketkeeper-batter’s performances will not be good enough to earn him a place in India’s Playing XI for the ICC T20 World Cup that is scheduled to be held in Australia in October-November this year. However, Manjrekar is optimistic about Karthik making it to the World Cup squad provided he maintains his current form.

Former Australian captain Ian Chappell has opined that England might be in trouble if Ben Stokes doesn’t show interest in leadership. Joe Root has stepped down from Test captaincy for England after the side’s dismal show in the last few series and a new skipper is yet to be named by ECB. In all possibilities, Stokes who has done the job at times in absence of Root is likely to take up the role.

Lucknow Super Giants captain KL Rahul has been found guilty of maintaining a slow over-rate during the clash against Mumbai Indians on Sunday (April 24). As this was Rahul’s second offence of the season, he has been fined a sum of INR 24 lakh. At the same time, the other members of the LSG playing XI have been fined INR 6 lakh or 25 per cent of the match fee, whichever is lower.

It must be noted that Rahul will be handed a one-match ban if he commits another slow over-rate offence this season. In that case, he’ll also be fined INR 30 lakh. Besides Rahul, MI skipper Rohit Sharma is the only other captain to have committed this offence twice. Hence, the duo has a serious need to keep an eye on the clock in their upcoming assignments.
