IPL: Ravindra Jadeja Openly Reveals CSK Issues As He Takes Subtle Jibe At Fans Behaviour
Ravindra Jadeja has posted another cryptic remark on Twitter. The fans are quizzed after what Jadeja posted on Social Media after CSK vs GT IPL 2023 Qualifier 1.
While MS Dhoni is responsible for the outright dominance of Chennai Super Kings in the Indian Premier League, the consistency showcased by the franchise stalwarts over the years is also another major reason. And when it comes to consistency, then only a few could compete with the utility and balance that Ravindra Jadeja has rendered to the team over the years. Jadeja is a prominent member of the CSK squad, however, off late Jaddu has been posting some cryptic messages on social media making fans speculate whether there is a tiff brewed between CSK and Jadeja.
Following last week's "Karma will get back at you.." Ravindra Jadeja has posted another cryptic message on social media, leaving the fans quizzed regarding who is these posts directed at. Jadeja, who took away the Most Valuable Asset award from the CSK vs GT Qualifier 1 used the award to transmit a statement that he believes some fans are sleeping on. Jadeja won the award after playing vital cameo innings of 22 runs, with the help of which CSK posted 172 on the board. CSK emerged victorious by 15 runs and via the victory reached the final of the IPL 2023. Chennai Super Kings will await the winner of Qualifier 2, where Gujarat Titans will play the winner of the MI vs GT eliminator.
Ravindra Jadeja posts cryptic message on social media yet again
Some fans think Ravindra Jedaja is not happy in the Chennai Super Kings camp, whereas some think there is a tiff with MS Dhoni, however, nothing concrete can be stated as the player has been posting cryptic tweets off late. Jadeja wrote, "Upstox knows but....some fans don't". Here's the latest post by the CSK all-rounder.
Earlier, Jadeja Tweeted the following. The post also garnered attention on social media. and now another addition has caused further worry. Here's the post.
“When I bat at 7, the crowd is disappointed and chant for Mahi bhai. Imagine if I bat higher; they will just wait for me to get out,” Jadeja was quoted as saying in the post-match presentation ceremony after the match against Delhi Capitals. So, while Ravindra Jadeja seems irked with something/someone, what could it be is anybody's guess. And these posts only make the mystery deepen. What do you think is the case, is something serious brewing in the CSK camp?

The Indian Super League (ISL) 2023-24 playoffs reach a fever pitch as FC Goa prepares to host Chennaiyin FC in a high-stakes knockout clash at the iconic Fatorda Stadium on Saturday. With a direct qualification to the semifinals hanging in the balance, both teams are gearing up for a battle that promises to be nothing short of exhilarating.
FC Goa enters the fixture on the back of an impressive run (45 points from its 22 matches), having secured victories in four out of its last five matches.
Coach Manolo Marquez said, “It’s true that FC Goa has never been the champion in the playoffs. The Shield was the most important, as winning it gives a spot in Asia straightaway. However, it’s (playoffs) also a tournament (that we must focus on) at the end of the day.”
Its commanding performance against Chennaiyin FC in its recent encounter, where it emerged triumphant with a 4-1 scoreline, underscores its current form and confidence.
Chennaiyin FC, despite experiencing a setback in its previous fixture against FC Goa, has demonstrated resilience throughout the season. With wins in three of its last five matches, it is poised to bounce back and pose a formidable challenge to its opponents.
Chennaiyin coach Owen Coyle prior to the match said, “The FC Goa team that we faced in season six was one of the best-ever teams in the ISL, and we managed to oust them across two legs in the semi-finals. That has no bearing in tomorrow’s match but our real focus is to give our absolute best.”
Chennaiyin FC has often brought its A-game to the table in the knockouts, having won six playoff matches in the tournament, which is the joint-highest amongst all teams along with Bengaluru FC (6).

Biggest wicket you can ever take: M Siddharth thrilled after dismissing Virat Kohli
Lucknow spinner Manimaran Siddharth was over the moon following the dismissal of Bengaluru superstar batter Virat Kohli, calling it the biggest wicket ever. Siddharth dismissed Kohli to claim his first-ever Indian Premier League wicket as Lucknow beat the home side by 28 runs at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium. With this win, Lucknow moved up to the fourth spot in the IPL 2024 points table, having won two of their first three matches.
Speaking at the post-match press-conference, Siddharth said he dreamed of taking Kohli’s wicket, while calling his wicket the biggest one you can take. Siddharth bowled three overs, gavng away 21 runs at an economy of 7 while picking the all-impotant wicket of Kohli in the fifth over. He dsimissed Kohli after he'd scored 22 runs off 16 deliveries, having hit two boundaries and a solitary six.
“I had always dreamed of taking his wicket. You can ask anyone. It’s the biggest wicket you can ever take. I’m really happy. I just wanted to keep it simple. I backed my strengths and I knew if I could hit the correct lengths, I could do well for the team,” said Siddharth.
Speaking about pace sensation Mayank Yadav, Siddharth said he’s played him in the nets is is happto see him do well for Lucknow Supper Giants. Yadav claimed three wickets to be adjudged the ‘Player of the Match’ for a second successive match in IPL 2024. He also broke his own record for the fastest ball bowled in IPL 2024, clocking in at 156.7 kmph in Bengaluru.
“I've played him in the nets actually. He's really quick and I'm very happy to see him do well. All the players in the Lucknow team and support staff know what he has and he's delivering it at the right time and I'm really happy for him,” Siddharth added.
Yadav picked up three wickets while giving away just 14 runs in his four overs. He dismissed Glenn Maxwell, Cameron Green and Rajat Patidar to run through RCB’s middle order. The young pacer has now claimed six wickets in two matches and sits second in the wicket-takers list this season, only behind Chennai Super Kings’ Mustafizur Rahman.

Unraveling the Latest IPL Points Table: A Rollercoaster Ride of Cricket Drama
As the cricket frenzy grips the nation once again, the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 season has been nothing short of exhilarating. With each match packed with electrifying moments, unexpected twists, and breathtaking performances, fans have been on the edge of their seats, eagerly following their favorite teams' journey through the tournament.
Amidst this whirlwind of cricketing action, keeping track of the IPL points table has become imperative for fans to gauge their team's standing in the competition. So, let's dive into the latest IPL points table and dissect the highs and lows of the teams as they battle it out for supremacy.
Mumbai Indians: Reigning Champions Facing Challenges
The Mumbai Indians, led by the charismatic Rohit Sharma, are known for their resilience and ability to bounce back from adversity. However, the current season has posed some challenges for the defending champions. With a mix of wins and losses, they find themselves in the middle of the points table, striving to regain their momentum and secure a spot in the playoffs.
Chennai Super Kings: A Resurgent Force
Under the leadership of the legendary MS Dhoni, the Chennai Super Kings have staged a remarkable comeback this season. After a disappointing outing in the previous edition, they have roared back to form, displaying their trademark consistency and tenacity. With stellar performances from both seasoned veterans and promising youngsters, CSK sits comfortably at the top of the points table, sending a clear message to their rivals.
Royal Challengers Bangalore: Riding the Wave of Momentum
Virat Kohli's Royal Challengers Bangalore have been a force to be reckoned with this season. Bolstered by a formidable lineup and a renewed sense of purpose, RCB has delivered one thrilling performance after another, propelling themselves to the upper echelons of the points table. With Kohli's leadership and the firepower of players like AB de Villiers and Glenn Maxwell, RCB looks poised for a deep run in the tournament.
Kolkata Knight Riders: Inconsistent Form
The Kolkata Knight Riders have experienced a rollercoaster ride in the IPL 2024 season. Despite flashes of brilliance, they have struggled to find consistency, oscillating between impressive victories and disappointing defeats. With the likes of Shubman Gill and Andre Russell in their ranks, KKR possesses the talent to turn their fortunes around and make a late surge in the points table.
Rajasthan Royals: A Team in Transition
The Rajasthan Royals find themselves in a rebuilding phase this season, as they seek to redefine their identity and chart a new course for success. With a young squad and a new captain in Sanju Samson, RR has shown glimpses of promise but has faltered at crucial junctures. As they navigate through this transitional period, the Royals will look to unearth hidden gems and lay the foundation for a brighter future.
Delhi Capitals: Navigating Through Challenges
The Delhi Capitals, led by the dynamic Rishabh Pant, have encountered their fair share of challenges this season. Despite possessing a talented roster capable of match-winning performances, they have struggled to find their rhythm consistently. With the race for playoff berths heating up, DC will need to regroup and rediscover their winning formula to climb up the points table.
Punjab Kings: Aiming for Redemption
The Punjab Kings find themselves in familiar territory, striving to break free from the mid-table clutter and make a statement in the IPL. With the explosive talents of KL Rahul and Nicholas Pooran, PBKS has shown glimpses of brilliance but has been plagued by inconsistency. As they seek redemption and a shot at playoff glory, Punjab will need to address their shortcomings and string together a series of commanding performances.
Sunrisers Hyderabad: Battling Adversity
The Sunrisers Hyderabad have faced an uphill battle in the IPL 2024 season, grappling with injuries and inconsistent form. Despite the heroics of their star players, SRH has struggled to find their footing, languishing at the bottom of the points table. However, with a never-say-die attitude and the spirit of resilience, Hyderabad will look to defy the odds and stage a late resurgence in the tournament.
Conclusion: A Thrilling Journey Unfolds
As we unravel the latest IPL points table, it's evident that the tournament has been a captivating saga of triumphs, setbacks, and unexpected twists. With each team fighting tooth and nail for supremacy, the race to the playoffs promises to be a nail-biting affair, filled with drama and excitement at every turn.
As fans brace themselves for the thrilling encounters that lie ahead, one thing is certain – in the high-stakes arena of IPL cricket, anything can happen, and the only constant is the undying passion and fervor of the fans who cheer their teams on through every twist and turn of this exhilarating journey.

RCB ka baap kaun hai: Who is the Real Boss of RCB?
Hello everyone! Today, we are going to talk about a question that many cricket fans have asked: "RCB ka baap kaun hai?" (Who is the father of RCB?). Well, let's find out together!
If you're a cricket enthusiast, you probably know that RCB stands for Royal Challengers Bangalore, a famous cricket team in the Indian Premier League (IPL). But when someone asks, "RCB ka baap kaun hai?" they are usually asking about the team that consistently outperforms RCB. And the answer to this question might surprise you!
The team that has been considered the boss of RCB for a long time is none other than the Chennai Super Kings (CSK). CSK is one of the most successful teams in the history of IPL, having won the championship multiple times. On the other hand, RCB has struggled to claim the IPL trophy despite having some of the biggest cricketing stars in their lineup.
But why is CSK considered RCB's boss? Well, it's because of their impressive track record in the IPL. CSK has consistently performed well in almost every season, whereas RCB has faced ups and downs. CSK's strong team strategy, excellent leadership, and consistent performance have made them a formidable opponent for RCB.
However, it's essential to remember that cricket is a game of uncertainties. RCB might not have won as many IPL titles as CSK, but they have had their moments of glory. With players like Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers leading the team, RCB always has the potential to turn the tables and emerge victorious.
In conclusion, while CSK has been the dominant force in the IPL, particularly against RCB, cricket is unpredictable, and anything can happen on the field. RCB might not have had the same level of success as CSK so far, but they continue to strive for excellence and aim to claim the title of IPL champions one day.
So, the next time someone asks you, "RCB ka baap kaun hai?" you can confidently say that while CSK might have the upper hand for now, RCB is always ready to give them a tough fight and prove themselves on the cricket field.
And with that, we come to the end of our blog. We hope you found the answer to your question. Keep supporting your favorite teams and enjoy the thrilling game of cricket!

One Week in London
I love London. This March was my second time spending a full week here, the first being in September 2019, and it was still as pretty, clean, polite, multicultural, and full of good food, museums, bookstores, and walks. More than once I found myself wondering if London is a better version of NYC...
Stay
Both times we stayed at the wonderful St. Pancras Renaissance Hotel. It's connected to St. Pancras Station, making for near-zero commute when we got off the Eurostar from Paris. St. Pancras is also connected to King's Cross Station, providing excellent access to many Tube lines (and, of course, Platform 9 3/4). The hotel is gorgeous, with a stunning lobby; the rooms are comfortable and well-equipped (not like an American hotel, where it's iffy if you'll get tea, let alone biscuits, in the room no matter the level of luxury); the gym is pretty good and even has a Peloton; and the staff are consistently friendly, attentive, and helpful. Some of the Google reviews complain that the rooms are a bit run-down, but that has not been my experience. Maybe it's not in the league of the Ritz Carltons of the world, but this is one of my all-around favorite hotels.
That said, I spent most of my days between Chelsea and Covent Garden, which are southwest of St. Pancras, and I do think staying somewhere around there would be slightly more central for a tourist trip.
Eat (Vegetarian)
I love that London has so many vegetarian-friendly food options - even more than NYC, I think - and I appreciate that many menus have Indian-inspired food items. Everything I ate was good. In order from favorite to least favorite (though I'd gladly eat at any of these again):
Dishoom - Indian food, multiple locations (we've been to the King's Cross and Covent Garden ones). It's a sit-down restaurant that leans toward fast casual and has a whimsical feel. It's not specifically vegetarian, but I think the food is excellent. We loved the grilled paneer tikka, black chickpea salad, and black dal. They don't take reservations and the waits can be long, but we went for a late (~2:30pm) lunch on a Friday and didn't have to wait.
The Barbary - North African food, located between Covent Garden and Soho. The food is Mediterranean small plates and we loved everything we tried. It's not all vegetarian, and the main shortfall is that there wasn't any meaningful vegetarian protein. But the creative style of the dishes reminded me a bit of abcV, one of our favorite restaurants in NYC. Probably best to get a reservation given there aren't many seats, but we were able to walk in on a Sunday around 6:30pm. This was the fanciest place I ate (besides a friend's private social club, which was next level), though still not super fancy.
Bubala - Mediterranean vegetarian food in SoHo. I ordered the vegetarian mezze for lunch, which was a delightful spread of 8-9 small plates that were perfect for sharing with a friend. There is also a vegan mezze option. Probably best to get a reservation, but I walked in 10 minutes after they opened and was able to get a table.
Itadaziken - Vegan Japanese food in King's Cross. In my opinion, it's hard to go wrong with vegan Japanese. They have ramen (which was good, but not as great as Ippudo) and a sizeable selection of small plates. I love that they have multiple tofu dishes - the tofu steak was great, the kara-age tofu (fried) was tasty but probably not the healthiest, and the cucumber kimchi, grilled eggplant, and sushi were all pretty good (would maybe try some other plates instead next time). The mochi was okay, I probably wouldn't get it again.
Caravan - Vegetarian-friendly European food, multiple locations. I shared several small plates with a friend and enjoyed them all. The tofu was very good but a tiny serving. I'd totally go back. We had a reservation and my friend said she had tried to walk in 3x before and couldn't get a table without a res.
Mortimer House Kitchen - "Elevated global fare" in Fitzrovia, just north of Soho. I went for breakfast and found many appealing options. It was packed, definitely make a reservation, although we lucked out and managed to get a table for 2 without a res.
Thenga Cafe - Vegetarian food, located in the YMCA near King's Cross. This was like a cafeteria for vegetarian Indian food, and the food tasted home-cooked (there is no greater compliment). I really liked the dosa wrap at lunch. It was wonderful to have an option like this while on the road for over a week -- it felt like a break from standard restaurant food.
Granger & Co - Vegetarian-friendly Australian food, multiple locations. We went for lunch and really enjoyed the chopped salad with a side of tofu. The curry with tofu was okay, but a bit too doused in curry powder. In the past I've enjoyed breakfast/brunch there.
Mildred's - Vegetarian food, multiple locations. I tried the fried rice with tofu and it was pretty good -- good portion of tofu, but I'm not a big fried rice fan and wish they had a less carb-heavy tofu option.
Koya Soho - Udon, located in Soho. I am not a huge fan of udon (though I don't dislike it either), but I thought the tofu udon was good. It's really small and seems hard to get into, but we went close to opening time and got the last 2 seats for lunch.
Museums
It's delightful and mind-boggling that London has so many phenomenal museums and most are free -- for everyone, not just for locals. In order of my favorite to least favorite (though again, I really like them all):
National Gallery - This is the national art museum, opened exactly 200 years ago in 1824 by an order of Parliament. Its goal was to showcase British art, although it includes art from across Europe (and a handful of American artworks as well). The first floor spans the 13th-15th centuries and the second floor covers everything after that until the 1920s. There is a free Museum Highlights tour on Tu-Th from 3-4pm and I really enjoyed this (thankfully, it only covers the 2nd floor...I was not sad to skip the medieval art). Entrance is free -- the website says to book online, but nobody checked my ticket.
British Museum - I didn't visit this time, but I loved this museum last time I was here and spent much more time than expected wandering through the fascinating exhibits. Also free to visit. They have some paid tours that you can book in advance.
Natural History Museum - I really like this museum. There are fascinating exhibits on dinosaurs, human evolution, and more. Entrance is free and, though I booked a ticket online, nobody checked my ticket onsite. It's a short walk from Chelsea so I enjoyed heading there afterwards.
Churchill War Rooms - This museum covers the underground area from which Churchill managed Britain's efforts in WW2. It is not free -- it was 32 pounds pp and comes with an audio guide. We spent about 90 minutes here and my favorite part was the Churchill Museum. It's an interesting museum, and if you're a Churchill aficionado it's pretty cool. Personally I enjoyed reading The Splendid and The Vile, Eric Larson's very fun book on Churchill, more than visiting this museum. It is located right by St. James Park, which is gorgeous. We enjoyed walking the 20-30 minute loop around the lake in the park.
Tate Modern - Modern art museum. I am not big on modern art but they have some really famous pieces. I visited last time I was in London and believe entrance is free.
London has many more museums which we didn't have a chance to visit -- Sir John Soane's Museum (art museum, free) and The Courtald Gallery at Somerset House came highly recommended.
Other Stuff To Do
The West End: While there's a lot of overlap between shows on Broadway and the West End, I've really enjoyed seeing Matilda and Les Miserables on the West End during my trips here. Sometimes the West End has tickets that are cheaper than anything I've seen on Broadway (like 20 pounds for the Matilda ticket in 2019) if you buy from the TKTS booth in person or the TKTS website.
Parks: Between this and our 2019 trip to London, I've enjoyed walking in Hyde Park, St. Regent's Park, St. James Park, and up to Primrose Hill for a lovely, peaceful view of London. Hampstead Heath also came highly recommended to me for its walking trails. And I recall Kew Gardens, the botanical gardens ~an hour outside the city by Tube, being really wonderful from when I visited London in high school with my family.
Bookstores: Ah, so many delightful bookstores! I was pretty basic and just went to Waterstones (Chelsea, though there are many locations) and Hatchard's (Piccadilly) and had a great time browsing. There are plenty of Instagram reels showing off other, iconic bookshops in the city.
Shopping: While London shopping has a lot of overlap with options in NYC, there are some stores that I've only found in London -- Selfridges (iconic department store in Mayfair), Fortnum & Mason (delicious teas, jams, chocolates, etc.; main store in Piccadilly), Strathberry (gorgeous handbags), Sweaty Betty (they've shut down their NYC stores in the last few years), and Varley (upscale athleisure). I'm sure I've missed a few. I also just enjoyed walking along Regent Street in Soho and King's Road in Chelsea for a lot of shops clustered nearby.
