Hardik Pandya has silenced the critics with his exploits in IPL 2022. He played 15 games and averaged 44.27 for 487 runs, including four half-centuries.<img src="https://api.bdcrictime.com/hardik-pandya-03_06_2022.jpg"><a href="https://www.bdcrictime.com/player/profile/727/hardik-pandya">Hardik Pandya</a> was named Man of the Match in the 2022 IPL Finals for his all-around performance on the field. Pandya led his team to glory in an impressive racquet campaign. Not many gave them a chance to make it to the playoffs after the mega auction, let alone go all the way in this year's competition. After triumphing in his first IPL stint as captain, former Indian cricketer Kiran More has praised Hardik's fabulous performance at the 2022 IPL.The all-rounder hasn't had the best times in recent months. He carried injuries that limited his bowling time and was also dropped from the national team. But this season we saw a different Pandya as he moved up the batting order and played responsible shots for his team at crucial points in their campaign. The hard-hitting batter amassed 487 runs this season with four half-centuries to his name.Former Indian cricketer <a href="https://www.bdcrictime.com/player/profile/8106/kiran-more">Kiran More</a> spoke about Hardik Pandya and explained why he believes Hardik Pandya is now a 4th dimensional cricketer. “The best moment for me in IPL 15 was the way the Gujarat Titans played cricket. It was outstanding. And especially when Hardik became captain and won the trophy, his personal performance was just as brilliant. Moving from Mumbai Indians to Gujarat Titans, it's not that easy to go and lead the new team and immediately win the championship," Kiran More said on the SG Podcast. 

Kiran More recalled Hardik Pandya's early days in the sport as he used to play in his academy. “To me, Hardik was a young kid who wanted to perform all the time. I now believe that he is a fourth dimensional player now. He used to be a three-dimensional player because he was a bowler, batsman, and fielder, but now he's also a captain. So you are proud to have such a talented cricketer in the national team," More added.

A FIR is registered against MS Dhoni and 7 others in Bihar; know what is the case is all about

The former Indian skipper MS Dhoni is one of the best captains in the history of cricket. Recently, an FIR was registered against MS Dhoni including 8 other people. The FIR has been registered at the Begusarai in Bihar on a cheque bounce issue. Considering the reports from DNA, the FIR was filed by SK Enterprises, as they found their cheque was bounced. They received the cheque from 'New Global Produce India Limited' and Dhoni also gets involved. He promoted the product on several occasions along with seven other persons. However, Judicial Magistrate Ajay Kumar Mishra will be handling this case and the next hearing was scheduled for June 28, Tuesday. Considering the other reports, New Global Produce India Limited has given an INR 30 lakh cheque to SK Enterprises and also get back their fertilizers from the company. 

He is keen to learn quickly: MS Dhoni 

<img src="https://api.bdcrictime.com/dhoni-and-jadeja-01_05_2022.jpg">MS Dhoni and Ravindra JadejaAfter playing their last match against Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2022, MS Dhoni shared a few words in the post-match presentation, saying, "I think what we need to understand is that we were playing a batter light. So when we lost those wickets, Moeen had to curb himself a bit. Role and responsibility got swapped a bit when the wickets fell. If we had lost another wicket at that point, we wouldn't have even got anything to defend." 

"I'd say 10-15 runs short although the start is always crucial. If you don't start well, even 180 may not be enough. Overall, I'd say 15 runs short. I think the important factor is that he (Mukesh Choudhary) is keen to learn quickly and after every game, he wants to improve. That's what is needed for youngsters," he added. 

"Next season, it shouldn't be like they are starting from scratch. Our Malinga (Matheesha Pathirana) is difficult to pick, and he'll only surely contribute for us next year. We have done well in patches. Important thing is to do well as a team. Crucial thing is to make the most of an opportunity if you are a bowler or a batter. It's not a one-year tournament, you keep coming back year after year. Key is to keep going as a player for the next 10-12 years," he further added.

I have spent a lot of time developing my knowledge about this side of the game: Shane Watson

One of the finest all-rounders from the Australian side, Shane Watson has come up with an exciting thing in the seventh episode of The Delhi Capitals Podcast. After announcing his retirement from all aspects of the game, Delhi Capitals roped him ahead of the 15th edition of the Indian Premier League. However, Delhi had a decent time this season and has been knocked out by Mumbai Indians in a do or die game. Speaking in The Delhi Capitals Podcast, Shane Watson shared a lot about his mental side, saying, "I find the mental side of the sport super interesting and I am obsessed with it. The players show incredible skill in the nets when they play without pressure. But once they go into the game, the players’ mental environment changes significantly," Shane Watson was quoted as saying by CricTracker. 

Don’t make that mistake again: Shane Watson 

<img src="https://api.bdcrictime.com/shane-watson-shardul-thakur-01_06_2022.jpg">Shane-Watson-Shardul-ThakurShane Watson also mentioned how the mindset should be well to execute your skills in this game. "I have spent a lot of time developing my knowledge about this side of the game. Everything is always built around technique. Usually, coaches try to correct players’ technique, but there’s no chat about mindset and if your mindset is not right, then you won’t be able to execute your skills. That’s why one of my main focus points as a coach is to pass on the knowledge of the mental side of the sport to as many cricketers as I can." 

Rovman Powell has done his job well by coming down the order for Delhi Capitals this season. In that case, Shane Watson shared a few words that Rovman Powell understood during the training session. "Everyone has an internal dialogue going on in their minds. We are in control of those dialogues, but most of us don’t exercise control over those dialogues. Usually, the internal chats are negative thoughts such as fear of failure, don’t make that mistake again, you should be better than that and so on and so forth. But if you want to, you can be in control of your thoughts and redirect them to the right thoughts at the right time, which helps from a performance point of view. Rovman understood that and was able to redirect his thoughts."

The cricketer-turned-expert also named Gujarat Titans skipper Hardik as his captain as well as player of the tournament. He stated: 


 
“Together with him I kept <a href="https://www.bdcrictime.com/player/profile/661/kl-rahul">KL Rahu</a>l. I thought about Quinton de Kock and Shubman Gill, but about KL Rahul - more than 600 runs over two centuries. Once again eat, sleep and get 600 runs in the IPL. The form is temporary, KL Rahul is permanent. 

“I had polled for #3 – Deepak Hooda or Rahul Tripathi. I chose Rahul Tripathi, about 80% also voted for Rahul Tripathi.

“Avesh Khan is by my side. I thought of Mohsin Khan, Umran Malik and Prasidh Krishna but I still go with Avesh Khan - less bad days. After that I went with Mohammed Shami, he was amazing. Last but not least at number 11 is Arshdeep Singh. In my opinion, he was once again the standout bowler.”Aakash Chopra’s IPL 2022 XI: Jos Buttler, KL Rahul, Rahul Tripathi, Hardik Pandya (c), Liam Livingstone, David Miller, Andre Russell, Yuzvendra Chahal, Avesh Khan, Mohammed Shami, Arshdeep Singh.

Sunrisers Hyderabad Franchise can b released some players before IPL 2023

Sunrisers Hyderabad had a disappointing 2022 IPL season as they failed to make the playoffs and were unbeaten in five games at one point.

SRH then lost momentum and failed to make the top 4. Captain Kane Williamson disappointed fans with his batting performance but team management could keep him as he was good as captain and had an injury problem before the season.

IPL 2022: It was one of the most memorable seasons: David Miller

Gujarat Titans batsman David Miller claimed the 2022 IPL season will go down in history as one of his most memorable in the Indian Premier League and praised the spirit of the winning team. Gujarat made history when they won the coveted title in their first season, thanks in large part to Miller's contributions.<img src="https://api.bdcrictime.com/david-miller-30_05_2022.jpg">Gujarat Titans batsman <a href="https://www.bdcrictime.com/player/profile/167/david-miller">David Miller</a> said the 2022 IPL season had been one of his most memorable stints in the Indian Premier League and addressed morale in the winning camp. Miller played a key role in helping Gujarat's screenwriting story as they won the coveted crown in their first season. 

David Miller hit 481 runs in 16 games with a staggering batting average of 142.73 for the <a href="https://www.bdcrictime.com/team/123216/gujarat-titans">Gujarat Titans</a>. Miller has surpassed 350 runs in three consecutive seasons from 2013-2015, but he only managed to surpass the 200-run mark once in the next 6 years.Miller was bought by Gujarat Titans for Rs 3 crore but few expected the South African star to be one of the team's most valuable players. Miller thrived in his role as Gujarat's finisher, averaging nearly 70 runs per game."It was one of my most memorable seasons just in terms of the team. As I've said so many times, the team made so many contributions throughout the competition. 


 
“Obviously we're the underdogs throughout the competition and it's really nice to lift the trophy. Very, very memorable for me," Miller told Rashid Khan, speaking to the IPL website. 

Miller excelled against spin, and the left-hander lashed out at the Rajasthan Royals' spinners in Qualifier 1 and Sunday's final at Ahmedabad's Narendra Modi Stadium. 

In IPL 2022, Miller averaged 206 runs against spin and averaged over 100 against spinners. The South African batsman said he's tried hard to counter the spin in recent years and is happy it's paid off."I started working hard. I failed so many times, it's difficult to beat in the middle order, with the run rate and the fact that every situation is very different, and give me the best chance and keep calm. 

“But what I really enjoyed this season was playing spin. I've been working very hard against spin for the past 3-4 years. I never really thought I had a problem but I changed 1 or 2 things and it worked. Very pleased," Miller added. 

Miller went 32 of just 19 balls unbeaten on Sunday as Gujarat chased a paltry 131 goal in just 18.1 overs to beat Rajasthan and lift the 2022 IPL trophy.&nbsp;

The top five players who raised their international careers in the end of IPL 2022

The 2022 IPL ended with the Gujarat Titans seven-wicket win over the Rajasthan Royals at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.<img src="https://api.bdcrictime.com/jos-buttler-30_05_2022.jpg"> This was probably one of the longest IPLs in history, featuring 74 games over a period of more than two months. We take a look at the top five players this season who made their mark and breathed new life into their careers. Here are the players who were either dropped or ruled unfit for their respective national teams ahead of the IPL.<a href="https://www.bdcrictime.com/player/profile/105/jos-buttler">Jos Buttler</a> (Rajasthan Royals/England): One of the most prolific batters in modern limited-overs cricket, Buttler was dropped from the England Test squad after his horror Ashes in Australia last year. Buttler may have retired from his Test career, but he could soon be in new Test coach Brendon McCullum's scheme thanks to a stellar IPL. The Englishman went on Slam 864 runs at four centuries, equaling the record Virat Kohli in the process. In the meantime, not only has he given his team great starts, but he has also acted as a mentor to youngsters like Riyan Parag. This boded well for him and McCullum, himself a KKR coach, took note.<a href="https://www.bdcrictime.com/player/profile/654/yuzvendra-chahal">Yuzvendra Chahal</a> (Rajasthan Royals/India): Like Buttler, Chahal suffered a tumble when he was left out of India's squad for the 2021 T20 World Cup. But he soon bounced back, making sure he never compromised his position. He impressed on the return against New Zealand last year but his best was reserved for IPL 2022 where he sealed the purple cap in a close race with RCB's Wanindu Hasaranga and recorded 27 wickets - one wicket every 15 balls.<a href="https://www.bdcrictime.com/player/profile/727/hardik-pandya">Hardik Pandya</a> (Gujarat Titans/India): Pandya may have played at the 2021 T20 World Cup, but prior to that his inability to complete his four overs raised questions about his match fitness. In such a scenario, his performance suffered, and he needed a big stage to prove the naysayers wrong. His all-around show this season saw him run 487 runs with a 44 average, finishing fourth. On most occasions he had GT cross the finish line in thrilling chases and reiterated his ability to win matches. However, he did take 8 wickets and bowled 30 overs in 14 games - which was not four overs a match. Nonetheless, he cast a brilliant spell in the final which must be enough to show himself at this stage, with captaincy only expanding his repertoire.<a href="https://www.bdcrictime.com/player/profile/104934/umran-malik">Umran Malik</a> (Sunrisers Hyderabad/India): When Malik came to the IPL in 2021, he was still relatively unknown. He's thrown a few 145-plus deliveries in the UAE, but his best came in 2022, where he not only picked up the pace - 154.8 against DC, but was consistently under the wickets (he accounted for 22 wickets). He even went on bowl a four-wicket girls against Punjab Kings. No surprises, he was drafted into India's squad for the South African T20Is; The life of this young man from Jammu will never be the same. 

<a href="https://www.bdcrictime.com/player/profile/649/dinesh-karthik">Dinesh Karthik </a>(RCB/India): When IPL 2022 came around, Dinesh Karthik became more and more popular, not because of his exotic shots but because of his commentary. And then times changed and how. So much so that the 36-year-old 'DK' is ready to take on the five-game T20I series against South Africa. In addition, he also had a great IPL where he redefined the rules of modern finishing. He went on to hit 330 runs with a 55 average. Full value for RCB after being picked up at Rs 5.50 crore.

IPL 2022: Ravichandran Ashwin Lot Of Thinking And Improvements To Do, Especially With His Off Spin says Kumar Sangakkara

While Ravichandran Ashwin is a great bowler, Rajasthan Royals (RR) Director of Cricket Kumar Sangakkara admits he needs to work on bowling off-spin more often.<img src="https://api.bdcrictime.com/r-ashwin-30_05_2022.jpg"><a href="https://www.bdcrictime.com/player/profile/129/ravichandran-ashwin">Ravichandran Ashwin </a>is a legend in his own right but he still needs to think about improvements and throw the conventional out-break deliveries more often, says Rajasthan Royals director of cricket Kumar Sangakkara. The 36-year-old veteran off-spinner, India's second-highest Test wicket taker (442), is known for experimenting a lot with his bowling. He often throws the conventional off-breaks less than the carrom balls that go off right-handers."Ash (Ashwin) did a great job for us," Sangakkara said at the post-game press conference after RR lost by seven wickets to the Gujarat Titans in Sunday's IPL final. 

"Also for Ash, who is a legend in terms of what he has achieved on the cricket pitch, there will be a lot of improvement and reflection to be had, particularly with his off-spinners and more bowling," commented Sangakkara, the team's oldest member, who managed just 12 wickets in 17 games this season. 

Also in the Summit Clash, the off-spinner ace chose to throw some carrom balls instead of the regular off-spin. He gave away 32 runs in three overs without claiming wickets while defending a modest 130. 

Rajasthan was able to handle a meager 130 on a surface that generated exorbitant extra impact. The Royals' seasonal contender Jos Buttler managed just 39 runs with five boundaries and before he could shift gears into attacking mode, the Englishman sliced ​​past Hardik Pandya's stumps. 

After Buttler's dismissal, the Royals added just 51 runs in eight overs to post something the bowlers could defend. 

Prasidh Krishna and Trent Boult gave them hope with early wickets from <a href="https://www.bdcrictime.com/player/profile/633/wriddhiman-saha">Wriddhiman Saha </a>and Matthew Wade on the power play.Lots of improvements needed 

Although Sangakkara had a good season and finished as runners-up, he felt the team needs to improve in many areas. 

“Well, we have a lot to improve in all areas. If you take our clout, we had big contributions from Jos (Buttler), Sanju and Shimron Hetymer in the early stages."Riyan (Parag) and Devdutt (Padikkal) have played really well in patches, but I think in terms of overall performance, we need a bit more from the support roleplayers as well," he said. 

Speaking of Riyan Parag, the veteran keeper-batter backed the youngster to bolster Rajasthan's middle order. 

“I think Riyan Parag has tremendous potential and we need to put him in a higher rating by the time we arrive next season. I look forward to nurturing him into becoming an early middle class player rather than just a killer. 

"Because I think he's so successful against both spin and pace," noted the Sri Lankan batting champion. 

Sangakkara signed saying that this is the best and strongest XI RR has played with.
