Former India opener Gautam Gambhir feels New Zealand pacer Trent Boult forms a formidable pair with Jasprit Bumrah, giving Mumbai Indians an edge over Chennai Super Kings in this IPL.
He also said it will be a challenge for CSK to deal with the MI pace duo in the absence of Suresh Raina.
Boult was roped in by Mumbai Indians as a replacement for experienced Sri Lankan seamer Lasith Malinga, who had opted out of the 13th IPL due to personal reasons.
With Mumbai Indians taking on Chennai Super Kings in the tournament opener on Saturday in Abu Dhabi, Gambhir said he is waiting to see how Boult and Bumrah go about their business.
“I am really excited to watch how Trent Boult and Jasprit Bumrah will bowl with the new ball, because we all know Bumrah and Boult are world class bowlers, and in the T20 format both are wicket-taking options,” Gambhir said on Star Sports show ‘Cricket Connected’.
“A left-arm seamer, who will bring the ball inside for a right hand batsman while Jasprit Bumrah believes in an unorthodox style of bowling.”
A vital cog in CSK’s wheel, Raina had pulled out of the IPL due to “personal reasons” and Gambhir feels it will be a challenge for CSK without him at number 3.
“There will be a challenge for Chennai Super Kings considering they do not have Suresh Raina batting at No. 3. Shane Watson has not played international cricket for a long time, so we would want to know who will open with him and how will these batsmen face these bowlers,” the former Kolkata Knight Riders skipper said.
Gambhir, a two-time IPL-winning skipper, believes four-time champions Mumbai Indians will be favourites against Chennai considering the overall team balance and depth after the addition of Boult.
“I am skewed more towards Mumbai Indians for the opening match because if we notice the team balance and the depth of the squad while not forgetting the addition of Trent Boult in the squad can prove to be an excellent option,” he said.
3 more days to go!
What a spectacular and breathtaking view from the stadiums in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
“Every team wants a bowler who will take wickets with a new ball and use Jasprit Bumrah in an experimental way. I would want to see how these two bowlers perform with the new ball not only in the first match but throughout the tournament.”
Former India batsman and ex batting coach Sanjay Bangar said it will be interesting to see how CSK skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni manages the fielding positions of the senior players in the team.
“MSD as a captain, I know has a lot of experience, he has other experienced players as well, but how will he adjust these experienced players on field is what I am eager to watch,” he said.
“I don’t think there will be any challenges in batting or bowling with respect to these experienced players. Considering T20 format is based on athleticism and fielding plays a vital role, how will he manage his senior players placing them on the field. I think this will be the most challenging part as a captain for him.

Chris Woakes Says England Players May Face Pay Cuts as Cricket Feels Pinch
Although the programme of 18 men's international matches scheduled for this season is set to be completed on Wednesday, the ECB has incurred heavy losses, with all games played behind closed doors.
World Cup winner Chris Woakes admits players may be next to feel the pinch as England cricket chiefs on Tuesday announced 62 job cuts due to the impact of the coronavirus pandemic. England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) chief executive Tom Harrison said such measures would have been "unthinkable" seven months ago but the global crisis had had a huge impact.
Harrison said English cricket had already lost more than £100 million ($129 million), a figure that could rise to £200 million next year if Covid-19 interrupts next season.
England all-rounder Woakes expressed sympathy with those affected.
"It does resonate with the players," said Woakes, who added that losses would have been even greater had scheduled tours by the West Indies, Pakistan, Australia and Ireland not taken place.
In April, England's centrally contracted players made a donation of £500,000 to the ECB and selected good causes, the equivalent of a 20 percent reduction in their retainers for three months.
Woakes, with a new round of central contracts due this month, said players may have to take a pay cut.
"In the current climate, and with contracts round the corner, I think you just have to expect anything at the minute," he said.
"As players you're not going to sit here and say 'we're exempt from it'."
- Losses -
Although the programme of 18 men's international matches scheduled for this season is set to be completed on Wednesday, the ECB has incurred heavy losses, with all games played behind closed doors.
The ECB introduced pay cuts for staff in April but the reductions have not been enough to stave off job losses.
"The Covid-19 pandemic has left cricket facing its most significant challenge of the modern era," said Harrison.
"There is also deep uncertainty about the future, and it is vital we take more steps now to ensure the future financial sustainability of cricket in England and Wales."
Harrison added that the ECB would need to become a "leaner and more agile organisation", saying savings would only be possible "by reducing our headcount".
"These proposals include a 20 percent reduction in our workforce budget, which will equate to the removal of 62 roles from our structure."
ECB chiefs had hoped to capitalise on the boost to the game provided by England's World Cup win on home soil last year as well as a dramatic Ashes series.
"Seven months ago, sharing a message of this nature was unthinkable," said Harrison.
"Our ambition and energy are unchanged but how we get there now needs to look significantly different to what we originally planned for."
Women across Kerala have adopted the viral campaign as a response to moral policing and online bullying
Months after the internet turned black-and-white with millions of “women supporting women”, for a campaign to raise awareness about femicide in Turkey, social media is now the platform for a joyous celebration of women flaunting their legs to fight objectification and societal double standards. Since September 15, various iterations of hashtags like #YesWeHaveLegs #WeHaveLegs and #WomenHaveLegs have led to a homegrown viral campaign that features body-positive images shared by thousands of women as a symbol of solidarity.
Started by Malayalam actor and dancer Rima Kallingal, the #YesWeHaveLegs campaign was launched as a response to internet trolls who harassed Anaswara Rajan, an 18-year-old actor, for wearing shorts. Rajan responded to netizens by posting another photo in the same outfit, with the caption: “Don't worry about what I'm doing. Worry about why you're worried about what I'm doing,” eliciting over 3,00,000 likes and garnering the support of many like Kallingal.
Hitting back at trolls, this micro revolution was adopted by common womxn folx as well as a fraternity of Malayali actresses such as Parvathy Thiruvothu, Nazriya Nazim, Ahaana Krishna, Ameya Mathew, Kani Kusruti and Poornima Indrajith, many of whom posted pictures that prove social media's dynamic ability to morph into a positive space. “The internet has opened up a space for slut-shaming and moral policing, which was otherwise directed to women at their homes, with their families or in their offices,” says Kallingal, “but the internet has also opened up a space for women to voice their opinions and speak freely about what they think.”
Incidents of online trolling, slut-shaming and moral policing in public spaces have been on the rise in India. Earlier this month, Kannada actor Samyuktha Hegde was harassed for wearing a sports bra in a Bengaluru park. Globally, influencers like Chrissy Teigen and Jameela Jamil have routinely been outspoken about body-shaming trolls on their feeds.
Hurling vitriol through hurtful comments, offensive name-calling, online bullying, moral policing, body-shaming, sexual harassment and threats, the cyber world has hardly been a safe space for women. But the internet, and social media in particular, has also empowered many to fuel movements like #MeToo and more recently, #ChallengeAccepted. “A viral campaign like this creates a bonding exercise, it’s a sisterhood of sorts,” says Kallingal. “The internet has given women a platform to understand that there are other women who think like them. And that’s amazing, and something we lacked. It shows us we are not alone.”

At least 11 pilgrims have died and three are reported missing after a boat capsized in Chambal river in Rajasthan's Kota district on Wednesday. Officials have rescued 20 people as per latest reports.
Around 45 passengers on the boat were on their way to a temple when the incident took place. Local villagers responded to the incident before the Disaster Response Force and the State Disaster Response Force reached the site.
Krishan Kumar, NDRF spokesperson, had said 22 pilgrims were rescued in the morning and search was continuing for another 10 people still unaccounted for. "Three bodies have been recovered. The rescue operation is underway," Ramavtar Barnala, SDM (Etawah), Kota was quoted as saying.
The death toll rose to 11 as per latest reports.
Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot expressed anguish at the death of the devotees and instructed officials to help the affected families. "Talked to Kota administration and got information about the incident. Along with quick relief and rescue, instructions have been given to find the missing people soon. Local police and administration are present at the scene. Instructed the affected families for help from the Chief Minister's Relief Fund." he said in a Tweet in Hindi.
He later announced an ex-gratia of Rs 1 Lakh each to the family members of the deceased.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressed grief over the incident. "Anguished by the capsizing of a boat in Kota, Rajasthan. My thoughts are with those who have lost their near and dear ones."
The incident took place a year after 12 people drowned when a sightseeing boat capsised on the swollen Godavari River in Andhra Pradesh. In May 2018, 30 people were killed when a similar boat carrying locals capsised in the same region.
