बंगळुरू : कर्नाटक प्रीमिअर लीग (केपीएल) मधील मॅच फिक्सिंग प्रकरणी केंद्रीय गुन्हे अन्वेषन शाखेचा कसून तपास सुरू आहे. या तपासात पहिल्यांदाच आंतरराष्ट्रीय क्रिकेट खेळणाऱ्या क्रिकेटपटूचं नाव समोर आलं आहे. गुन्हे शाखेने टीम इंडियाचा माजी वेगवान गोलंदाज अभिमन्यू मिथुनला केपीएल सट्टेबाजीप्रकरणी चौकशीसाठी समन्स बजावलं आहे. सहपोलीस आयुक्त संदीप पाटील यांनी याबाबतची माहिती दिली. मिथुन केपीएलमध्ये शिवमोगा लायन्स संघाचं नेतृत्त्व करतो. त्याला समन्स बजावण्यात आल्याचं वृत्त समोर आल्यानंतर संदीप पाटील यांनीही त्याला दुजोरा दिला. मिथुन सध्या सुरतमध्ये टी-२० खेळत आहे. मिथुनने भारतीय संघाचं प्रतिनिधित्व केलं असल्यामुळे याची माहिती बीसीसीआयलाही देण्यात आली आहे. मिथुनला केपीएल फिक्सिंग प्रकरणी काही महत्त्वाचे प्रश्न विचारले जातील, असं संदीप पाटील म्हणाले. गुन्हे शाखेने केपीएल फिक्सिंग प्रकरणी जुलैपासून आतापर्यंत एकूण आठ जणांना अटक केली आहे. यात बेळगाव पँथर्सचे मालक अली अश्फाक थारा यांचाही समावेश आहे. कर्नाटक हायकोर्टाने बुधवारी अली यांचा जामीन अर्जही फेटाळला होता. गेल्या आठवड्यातच गुन्हे शाखेने कर्नाटक राज्य क्रिकेट संघटना आणि केपीएल संघाच्या व्यवस्थापकांना चौकशीसाठी नोटीस जारी केली होती. त्यावेळीही मिथुनशी संपर्क करण्याचा प्रयत्न झाला. पण त्याच्याशी संपर्क होऊ शकला नव्हता. मिथुनने भारतीय संघाचं प्रतिनिधित्व करताना पाच वन डे आणि चार कसोटी सामने खेळले आहेत. २५ ऑक्टोबर २०१९ रोजी तामिळनाडू विरुद्ध विजय हजारे ट्रॉफीच्या अंतिम सामन्यात कर्नाटकचं प्रतिनिधित्व करताना मिथुनने ५० व्या षटकात हॅट्ट्रिक घेऊन कमाल केली होती. विशेष म्हणजे त्या दिवशी मिथुनचा जन्मदिवसही होता. वयाचे ३० वर्ष पूर्ण करण्याच्या दिवशीच त्याने हॅट्ट्रिक घेऊन क्षण अविस्मरणीय बनवला. या अविस्मरणीय सामन्यात त्याने एकूण ५ विकेट्स घेतल्या होत्या.

राहुल द्रविड IPLमधील 'या' गोष्टीवर नाराज

लखनऊ: टीम इंडियाचा माजी दिग्गज फलंदाज आणि राष्ट्रीय अकादमीचा संचालक यानं आयपीएलमध्ये भारतीय प्रशिक्षकांना पुरेशी संधी मिळत नाही असं सांगत तीव्र नाराजी व्यक्त केली आहे. भारतीय प्रशिक्षकांना 'सपोर्ट स्टाफ'मध्ये न घेऊन संघ चूक करत आहेत, असं त्यानं स्पष्टपणे सांगितलं. भारतीय प्रशिक्षक काही कमी नाहीत, असंही तो म्हणाला. राहुल द्रविड हा लखनऊमध्ये १९ वर्षांखालील भारत आणि अफगाणिस्तान यांच्यातील एकदिवसीय मालिका पाहण्यासाठी आला आहे. त्यावेळी त्यानं आयपीएलविषयी मत व्यक्त केलं. आयपीएलमध्ये भारतीय प्रशिक्षकांना फारशी संधी दिली जात नसल्याबद्दल माजी कर्णधार आणि राष्ट्रीय क्रिकेट अकादमीचा संचालक असलेल्या द्रविडनं तीव्र नाराजी व्यक्त केली आहे. आपल्याकडेही काही उत्तम प्रशिक्षक आहेत असं मला वाटतं. त्यांच्या क्षमतेवर आम्हाला पूर्ण विश्वास आहे. आपलं क्रिकेट आणि प्रशिक्षक प्रतिभासंपन्न आहेत, असं द्रविड म्हणाला. आपल्या प्रशिक्षकांचा आत्मविश्वास वाढवण्याची नितांत गरज आहे. आपल्या प्रशिक्षकांना आयपीएलमध्ये सहायक प्रशिक्षक म्हणून काम करण्याची संधी दिली जात नाही याचं मला वाईट वाटतं, असंही तो म्हणाला. ' स्पर्धेत भारतीय खेळाडू मोठ्या संख्येनं खेळतात. स्थानिक प्रशिक्षक असल्याचा फायदा त्यांना होतो. त्यांना भारतीय खेळाडूंमधील क्षमता माहीत आहे,' असंही त्यानं सांगितलं. राहुल द्रविड यानं वयचोरी, मैदानातील माळ्यांची मेहनत, कार्यालयीन क्रिकेट, रणजी स्पर्धा, कसोटींचे महत्त्व अशा अनेक मुद्यांवर कायम स्पष्ट भूमिका मांडली आहे. नुकत्याच झालेल्या डे-नाइट कसोटी सामन्याविषयीही त्यानं भाष्य केलं होतं. ‘डे-नाइट कसोटीचे आयोजन प्रेक्षकांना पुन्हा स्टेडियममध्ये खेचून आणेलच; पण कसोटी क्रिकेटला संजीवनी देण्यासाठी, कसोटीचा प्रेक्षक वाढवण्यासाठी इतर मुद्यांवरही सुधारणा अपेक्षित आहे’, असं सूचक विधान त्यानं केलं होतं. ‘कसोटी क्रिकेटच्या संजीवनीसाठी डे नाइट कसोटींचे आयोजन हा एकमेव तोडगा नाही. तसेही आपण दवाच्या परिणामांवर नियंत्रण मिळवू शकलो तर डे नाइट कसोटी वर्षांत एकदा, दोनदा नक्की आयोजित करता येईल. दवामुळे चेंडू ओलसर होतो, ज्यामुळे गोलंदाजांची कसोटी लागते. अशा परिस्थितीत चेंडू स्विंगही करता येत नाही. ही डे नाइट कसोटीतील आव्हाने आहेत’, याकडेही त्यानं लक्ष वेधलं होतं.

...तर रिषभ पंतला संघाबाहेर जावं लागेल: लक्ष्मण

नवी दिल्ली: संधी मिळूनही फलंदाजीत अपयशी ठरत असलेला युवा फलंदाज आणि विकेटकीपर रिषभ पंतवर चहुबाजूने टीका होत आहे. अनेक दिग्गज क्रिकेटपटूंनी पंतला पाठिंबा दिला असला तरी, काहींनी त्यानं खेळात सुधारणा करावी, असं मत व्यक्त केलं आहे. माजी क्रिकेटपटू यानंही त्याला सल्ला दिला आहे. जर पंतनं खेळात सुधारणा केली नाही तर त्याला संघाबाहेर जावं लागेल, असं लक्ष्मण म्हणाला. संघ व्यवस्थापनानं विकेटकीपर रिषभ पंतला जितका वेळ दिला आहे, जो विश्वास दाखवला आहे तो सार्थ ठरवावा लागेल. जर त्यानं फलंदाजीत सुधारणा केली नाही तर त्याची जागा घेऊ शकतो, असं लक्ष्मण म्हणाला. वेस्ट इंडीजविरुद्धच्या तीन टी-२० सामन्यांच्या मालिकेत संजू सॅमसनची झालेली निवड हा पंतसाठी एक प्रकारे इशारा आहे. त्यामुळं खेळात सुधारणा करावी, अन्यथा संघाबाहेर जाण्याची तयारी ठेवावी, असंही तो म्हणाला. संघ व्यवस्थापन आणि निवड समितीनं सॅमसनची संघात निवड करून आमच्याकडे पर्याय उपलब्ध आहे, असा इशारा दिला आहे. रिषभ पंतला भरपूर संधी मिळाली आहे आणि संघ व्यवस्थापनानं त्याच्याशी चर्चा केली असावी असा मला विश्वास आहे, असंही लक्ष्मण म्हणाला. खेळाडूला संघ व्यवस्थापन आणि निवड समितीनं दाखवलेला विश्वास सार्थ ठरवावा लागतो. दुर्दैवानं पंत विश्वास सार्थ ठरवण्यात अपयशी ठरत आहे. मात्र, त्याच्याकडे 'एक्स' फॅक्टर आहे. तो एक जबरदस्त फलंदाज आहे हे मी अजूनही मानतो. मैदानात उतरल्यानंतर तो मोठे फटके मारून सामन्याचं चित्र बदलू शकतो, असा विश्वासही लक्ष्मणनं व्यक्त केला. एक फलंदाज म्हणून त्याचा गोंधळ उडालेला दिसतो. तो दबावात आहे यात शंकाच नाही. पण तो लयीत आल्यावर त्याची मानसिकता वेगळी असते. त्याच्या फलंदाजीच्या शैलीत बदल झालेला दिसतो. संघातील अंतिम अकरामध्ये स्थान टिकवून ठेवण्याचा दबाव त्याच्यावर आहे असं मला वाटतं, याकडेही लक्ष्मणनं लक्ष वेधलं.

चेन्नई: 'कॅप्टन कूल' महेंद्र सिंह धोनी क्रिकेटच्या मैदानात भलेही प्रत्येकाला सतत सूचना करत असले, पण घरच्या मैदानावर सगळे निर्णय त्याची पत्नी साक्षीच घेते. धोनीचं म्हणणं असं आहे की पत्नीने घेतलेल्या निर्णयांमध्ये मी कधीच पडत नाही. ३८ वर्षीय धोनी चेष्टेच्या मूडमध्ये म्हणतो, 'मला पक्कं ठाऊक आहे की ती खूश राहील तर मी खूश राहू शकेन!' भारताला दोन विश्वचषक जिंकून देणाऱ्या महेंद्र सिंह धोनीने २०१० मध्ये साक्षीसोबत लग्नगाठ बांधली होती. चेन्नईत एका ऑनलाइन मॅरेज पोर्टलच्या कार्यक्रमाला धोनी गेला होता. तो म्हणाला, 'लग्न होईपर्यंत सर्व पुरुष वाघ असतात. मी आदर्श पती आहे. मी पत्नीला सगळे निर्णय घेऊ देतो. मला माहितीय की ती खूश असेल तरच मी खूश राहू शकेन. माझी पत्नी तेव्हाच खूश राहील जेव्हा मी तिच्या प्रत्येक हो ला हो करेन.' धोनी म्हणतो, 'वयानुसार नाती अधिक दृढ होत जातात. लग्नाचं सार ५० वर्षांनंतर आहे. एकदा ५५ वर्षं पार केली की ते खरं प्रेमाचं वय असतं. त्यावेळी तुमची दिनचर्या बदलून गेलेली असते.' महेंद्र सिंह धोनीच्या क्रिकेट करिअरच्या भवितव्याविषयी गेल्या काही काळापासून चर्चा सुरू आहे. तो पुढील वर्षी होणाऱ्या आयपीएलनंतरच आपल्या कारकिर्दीच्या पुढीव वाटचालीविषयीचा निर्णय घेणार असल्याचे त्याच्या एका जवळच्या सूत्रांनी सांगितले. धोनी सध्या काय करतो? टीम इंडियाचा माजी कर्णधार आणि यष्टीरक्षक फलंदाज महेंद्रसिंह धोनी इंग्लंडमध्ये झालेल्या विश्वचषकानंतर क्रिकेटपासून दूर आहे. तेव्हापासून धोनीच्या निवृत्तीवर चर्चा सुरूच आहे. धोनी लवकरच आंतरराष्ट्रीय क्रिकेटमध्ये खेळताना दिसेल अशी चर्चाही मध्यंतरी झाली. मात्र 'तो सध्या काय करतो?' असा प्रश्न सगळ्यांनाच पडला. त्यात धोनीचा एक फोटो समोर आला होता. तो केदार जाधव, माजी गोलंदाज आरपी सिंह यांच्यासोबत गोल्फ खेळताना दिसला होता. वर्ल्डकप स्पर्धेत सेमिफायनलमध्ये न्यूझीलंडविरुद्ध टीम इंडियाचा पराभव झाला होता. त्यानंतर धोनीनं क्रिकेटमधून ब्रेक घेतला आणि लष्करात प्रशिक्षणासाठी जाण्याचा निर्णय घेतला. काही दिवसांसाठी त्याची नियुक्ती श्रीनगरमध्ये करण्यात आली होती. तेव्हापासून धोनी आंतरराष्ट्रीय क्रिकेटपासून दूर आहे.

कोलकाता: विराट कोहलीच्या नेतृत्वाखाली टीम इंडियानं कसोटी मालिकेत बांगलादेशला २-० ने मात दिली. या मालिकेचा अखेरचा सामना कोलकाताच्या ईडन गार्डन्सवर डे-नाइट खेळवण्यात आला. या सामन्यात विजय मिळवल्यानंतर टीम इंडियाचे मुख्य प्रशिक्षक यांनी टीम इंडियाच्या कामगिरीवर चर्चा केली. तसेच महेंद्रसिंग धोनीच्या भवितव्यावरही भाष्य केलं. आता काही खेळाडूंचं भवितव्य आयपीएलमधील कामगिरीवर अवलंबून आहे, असं त्यांनी अप्रत्यक्षरित्या सांगितलं. टीम इंडियाचा माजी कर्णधार आणि यष्टीरक्षक फलंदाज महेंद्रसिंह धोनी इंग्लंडमध्ये झालेल्या विश्वचषकानंतर क्रिकेटपासून दूर आहे. तेव्हापासून धोनीच्या निवृत्तीवर चर्चा सुरूच आहे. धोनी लवकरच आंतरराष्ट्रीय क्रिकेटमध्ये खेळताना दिसेल अशी चर्चाही मध्यंतरी झाली. मात्र 'तो सध्या काय करतो?' असा प्रश्न सगळ्यांनाच पडला. त्यात धोनीचा एक फोटो समोर आला होता. तो केदार जाधव, माजी गोलंदाज आरपी सिंह यांच्यासोबत गोल्फ खेळताना दिसला होता. धोनीच्या भवितव्याबाबत चर्चा सुरू असताना टीम इंडियाचे मुख्य प्रशिक्षक रवी शास्त्री यांनी त्याच्याबद्दल भाष्य केलं आहे. काही खेळाडूंच्या आयपीएलमधील कामगिरीवर पुढचं सगळं ठरेल, असे त्यांनी अप्रत्यक्षरित्या सांगितलं. आयपीएल महत्वाची! लवकरच आंतरराष्ट्रीय क्रिकेटमध्ये पुनरागमन करणार अशी चर्चा जगतात सुरू आहे. मात्र, त्यासाठी आयपीएलची वाट पाहावी लागणार आहे, असं शास्त्री म्हणाले. 'तो कधी खेळण्यास सुरुवात करणार आहे आणि आयपीएलमध्ये कशी कामगिरी करतो यावर सगळं अवलंबून आहे. तर इतर यष्टीरक्षक कशी कामगिरी करतात, धोनीच्या तुलनेत त्यांची कामगिरी कशी आहे, यावरही बरंच काही अवलंबून आहे. आयपीएल ही मोठी स्पर्धा आहे. कारण साधारण १५ खेळाडूंचं स्थान निश्चित झालेले असेल,' असं रवी शास्त्री म्हणाले. धोनी चार महिन्यांपासून क्रिकेटपासून दूर वर्ल्डकप स्पर्धेत सेमिफायनलमध्ये न्यूझीलंडविरुद्ध टीम इंडियाचा पराभव झाला होता. त्यानंतर धोनीनं क्रिकेटमधून ब्रेक घेतला आणि लष्करात प्रशिक्षणासाठी जाण्याचा निर्णय घेतला. काही दिवसांसाठी त्याची नियुक्ती श्रीनगरमध्ये करण्यात आली होती. तेव्हापासून धोनी आंतरराष्ट्रीय क्रिकेटपासून दूर आहे.

कोलकाता : भारतीय संघाने कमालीची कामगिरी करत बांगलादेशविरुद्धच्या दुसऱ्या कसोटीत तिसऱ्या दिवशीच विजय मिळवला. ईडन गार्डन्सवर खेळवण्यात आलेली ही देशातील पहिली डे-नाईट कसोटी एक डाव आणि ४६ धावांनी जिंकून भारताने मालिकाही २-० ने खिशात घातली. भारतीय वेगवान गोलंदाजांनी या कसोटीत बांगलादेशची अक्षरशः दयनीय अवस्था केली. यासह भारताने अनेक विक्रमही नावावर केले. एक डाव आणि काही धावांच्या अंतराने विजय मिळवण्याची भारताची ही सलग चौथी वेळ होती. यापूर्वी जगातल्या कोणत्याही संघाने हा विक्रम केलेला नाही. १४२ वर्षांच्या कसोटी क्रिकेटच्या इतिहासात पहिल्यांदाच हा विक्रम नोंदवला गेला. या कसोटी मालिकेत भारताने बांगलादेशवर दोन्ही सामन्यात एक डाव आणि धावाच्या अंतराने मात केली. यापूर्वी दक्षिण आफ्रिकेला रांची आणि पुण्यातही एक डाव आणि धावांच्या फरकाने हरवलं होतं. या सामन्यात फक्त ९६८ चेंडू फेकले गेले. त्यामुळे हा देशातला काही तरी निकाल लागणारा सर्वात छोटा कसोटी सामना ठरला. यापूर्वी भारतीय संघाने अजिंक्य रहाणेच्या नेतृत्त्वात २०१८ मध्ये अफगाणिस्तानविरुद्ध सर्वात जलद विजय मिळवला होता. भारताचा कर्णधार विराट कोहलीने सर्वाधिक कसोटी सामने जिंकण्याच्या बाबतीत एलन बॉर्डर यांनाही मागे टाकलं. कर्णधार म्हणून विराटसाठी हा ३३ वा विजय होता, तर ऑस्ट्रेलियाचे बॉर्डर यांच्या नावावर ३२ विजय आहेत. दक्षिण आफ्रिकेचा ग्रीम स्मिथ (५३ कसोटी विजय) या यादीत पहिल्या क्रमांकावर आहे. तर यानंतर रिकी पाँटिंग (४८ कसोटी विजय), स्टीव वॉ (४१ कसोटी विजय) आणि क्लाईव्ह लॉयड (३६ कसोटी विजय) यांचा नंबर लागतो. भारतीय वेगवान गोलंदाजांनीही एकूण १९ विकेट्स घेतल्या. मायदेशात खेळलेल्या कसोटी मालिकेत वेगवान गोलंदाजांची ही सर्वोत्तम कामगिरी आहे. यापूर्वी कोलकात्यातच श्रीलंकेच्या वेगवान गोलंदाजांनी २०१७-१८ च्या मोसमात १७, तर इंग्लंडच्या गोलंदाजांनी १९३३-३४ ला चेन्नईत १६ विकेट्स घेतल्या होत्या. विराटने आणखी एक शतक ठोकत १३६ धावांची खेळी केली. भारतीय कर्णधार म्हणून हे त्याचं २० वं शतक ठरलं. त्याने याबाबतीत ऑस्ट्रेलियाच्या रिकी पाँटिंगलाही (१९ शतकं) मागे टाकलं. दक्षिण आफ्रिकेचा ग्रीम स्मिथ (२५) या यादीत पहिल्या क्रमांकावर आहे. भारताच्या दोन वेगवान गोलंदाजांनी ८ किंवा त्यापेक्षा जास्त विकेट्स घेण्याची ही पहिलीच वेळ होती. कसोटी क्रिकेटच्या इतिहासात यापूर्वी २०१०-११ च्या अॅशेज सीरिजमध्ये ही कामगिरी घडली होती. रेयान हॅरिस आणि मिशेल जॉन्सन यांनी ९-९ विकेट्स घेतल्या होत्या. याशिवाय दोन भारतीय वेगवान गोलंदाजांनी ५-५ विकेट्स घेण्याचीही ही पहिलीच वेळ आहे. भारतीय फिरकीपटूंना या सामन्यात एकही विकेट मिळाली नाही. मायदेशातील हा पहिला सामना आहे, जिथे भारतीय फिरकीपटूंना यश मिळालं नाही. तर फिरकीपटूंना यश न मिळण्याची भारताच्या कसोटी इतिहासातील ही दुसरी वेळ आहे. ईशांत शर्मा ९, उमेश यादव ८ आणि मोहम्मद शमीने २ विकेट्स घेतल्या. फिरकीपटूंनी फक्त ७ षटके गोलंदाजी केली. भारताने बांगलादेशचा पहिला डाव १०६ धावात गुंडाळल्यानंतर आपला पहिला डाव ९ बाद ३४७ धावांवर घोषित केला. यानंतर बांगलादेशचा दुसरा डाव ४१.१ षटकात १९५ धावांवरच आटोपला. या सामन्यात एकूण ९ विकेट्स घेणारा ईशांत शर्मा सामनावीर आणि मालिकावीर ठरला.

भारतीय संघ १२ वर्षांनी पुन्हा 'त्याच' इतिहासाची पुनरावृत्ती करणार?

कोलकाता : ऐतिहासिक डे-नाईट कसोटीत बांगलादेशची चांगलीच दैना झाली आहे. कोलकात्यातील ईडन गार्डन्समध्ये कसोटी मालिकेतील दुसरा आणि अखेरचा सामना पिंक बॉलने खेळवला जात आहे. बांगलादेशने नाणेफेक जिंकून फलंदाजीचा निर्णय घेतला. पण हा निर्णय फलंदाजांनी चुकीचा ठरवला. कारण, बांगलादेशचा संघ केवळ १०६ धावातच गारद झाला. भारताकडून इशांत शर्माने सर्वाधिक ५ विकेट्स घेतल्या. त्याखालोखाल उमेश यादव ३ आणि मोहम्मद शमीनेही २ फलंदाजांना माघारी पाठवलं. या कसोटीत भारत पुन्हा एकदा इतिहासाची पुनरावृत्ती करण्याची शक्यता आहे. २००७ ला मिरपूर कसोटीत भारताने बांगलादेशचा डाव ११८ धावात गुंडाळला होता. त्यापेक्षाही कमी धावात यावेळी बांगलादेशला गारद करण्यात आलं. पण यापेक्षा महत्त्वाचं म्हणजे तेव्हा भारताने ३ बाद ६१० धावा केल्या होत्या. २००७ च्या कसोटीत भारताचे दिग्गज खेळाडू दिनेश कार्तिक, वसिम जाफर, राहुल द्रविड आणि सचिन तेंडुलकर यांनी शतकी खेळी केली होती. २००७ ची कसोटी आणि पिंक बॉल कसोटीचं वैशिष्ट्य म्हणजे त्यावेळीही वेगवान गोलंदाज झहीर खानने ५ विकेट्स घेतल्या होत्या. यावेळीही वेगवान गोलंदाजानेच ५ विकेट्स घेतल्या आणि निम्मा संघ एकट्या इशांत शर्मानेच माघारी धाडला. फोलोऑनची नामुष्की ओढावलेल्या बांगलादेशचा दुसरा डावही २५३ धावात आटोपला आणि भारताने २३९ धावांनी विजय मिळवला होता. ईडन गार्डन्स आणि विक्रम दिग्गजांच्या उपस्थितीत ऐतिहासिक कसोटीची सुरुवात झाली. ईडन गार्डन्सचं मैदान आणि भारतीय संघाचा विक्रम हे जुनं समीकरण आहे. २००१ ला भारत विरुद्ध ऑस्ट्रेलिया कसोटीत भारताचा पहिला डाव १७१ धावात आटोपला आणि फोलोऑनची नामुष्की ओढावली. कारण, ऑस्ट्रेलियाने पहिल्या डावात ४४५ धावा केल्या होत्या. पण दुसऱ्या डावात भारताची ‘द वॉल’ राहुल द्रविड आणि व्हीव्हीएस लक्ष्मण यांनी कमाल केली. राहुल द्रविडने १८० आणि लक्ष्मणने २८१ धावांची खेळी करत भारताला मजबूत स्थितीत आणलं. ऑस्ट्रेलियाला दुसऱ्या डावात विजयासाठी भारताने ३८४ धावांचं लक्ष्य ठेवलं होतं. पण ऑस्ट्रेलियाच्या पहिल्या डावात ७ विकेट्स घेणाऱ्या हरभजन सिंहने पुन्हा कमाल केली आणि दुसऱ्या डावातही ६ विकेट्स घेतल्या. सचिन तेंडुलकरनेही ३ विकेट्स घेतल्या आणि ऑस्ट्रेलियाचा दुसरा डाव २१२ धावात गुंडाळला. भारताने ही कसोटी १७१ धावांनी जिंकली होती.

'गुलाबी' डे-नाइट टेस्टबद्दल विराट म्हणाला...

कोलकाता: गुलाबी रंगाच्या चेंडूने खेळवल्या जाणाऱ्या देशातील पहिल्यावहिल्या सामन्याची तुलना भारतीय क्रिकेट संघाचा कर्णधार विराट कोहली यानं भारत विरुद्ध पाकिस्तान सामन्याशी केली आहे. 'गुलाबी चेंडूनं कसोटी खेळणं आव्हानात्मक असेल. विश्वचषकात होणाऱ्या भारत विरुद्ध पाकिस्तान सामन्याइतकंच ते थरारक असेल,' असं विराटनं म्हटलं आहे. भारतातील पहिला दिवसरात्र कसोटी सामना उद्या कोलकाता येथील ईडन गार्डन मैदानावर होणार आहे. या ऐतिहासिक सामन्याची उत्सुकता एव्हाना शिगेला पोहोचली आहे. कसोटीच्या पहिल्या चार दिवसांची तिकीटे संपली आहेत. मात्र, ही कसोटी गुलाबी चेंडूसह होत असल्यानं क्रिकेटपटू सावध प्रतिक्रिया व्यक्त करत आहेत. विराटची प्रतिक्रिया देखील काहीशी अशीच आहे. 'गुलाबी चेंडूनं खेळणं कठीण असेल. गोलंदाजी कशी होतेय. फलंदाज चेंडूचा सामना कसा करतात हे पाहावं लागेल. सवय झाल्यानंतर खेळणं कदाचित सोपं जाईल,' असं तो म्हणाला. कोलकाता कसोटीला प्रेक्षकांचा चांगला प्रतिसाद मिळण्याची चिन्हं आहेत. त्या विषयी विराटनं आनंद व्यक्त केला. 'गुलाबी चेंडूविषयी लोकांना उत्सुकता आहे. अशी उत्सुकता एकेकाळी भारत-पाकिस्तान सामन्याच्या वेळी असायची. तेव्हा दिग्गज क्रिकेटपटू मैदानात असायचे. सगळीकडं याच सामन्याची चर्चा व्हायची. आताही तसंच वातावरण आहे,' असं तो म्हणाला. 'गुलाबी चेंडूनं खेळताना क्षेत्ररक्षण करणं कठीण जाईल. गुलाबी चेंडू वेगानं हातावर आदळतो. स्लिपमध्ये क्षेत्ररक्षण करताना मला याचा अनुभव आलाय. अर्थात, हा सामना खेळताना आम्हाला प्रेक्षकांचा पाठिंबा मिळेल. मैदानावरील दवबिंदू देखील सामन्यात महत्त्वाची भूमिका बजावतात. दव कधी पडेल आणि कधी त्याचं प्रमाण जास्त असेल याचा काहीही नेम नसतो. अशा परिस्थितीत शेवटचं सत्र महत्त्वाचं असेल,' असं विराट म्हणाला. गेल्या काही वर्षांपासून बीसीसीआयनं कसोटी क्रिकेटला प्रोत्साहन देण्याची भूमिका घेतली आहे. क्रिकेटपटूंच्या करारातून ते स्पष्ट दिसतं. करार करताना बीसीसीआय कसोटीपटूंना झुकतं माप देतं,' असं विराटनं सांगितलं.

नवी दिल्ली : आगामी आयपीएल मोसमात आणखी एका नव्या संघाची एंट्री होऊ शकते. आयपीएलमध्ये एकूण दोन नव्या संघांच्या समावेशाची चर्चा असली तरी बीसीसीआय केवळ एकाच संघासाठी अनुकूल आहे. कारण, एकाच वेळी ९० पेक्षा जास्त सामन्याचं आयोजन करण्यासाठी पुरेशा विंडो उपलब्ध नाहीत. २०२२ पर्यंत ९ संघांसोबतच आयपीएल मालिका होऊ शकते. त्यानंतर आयसीसीच्या भविष्य दौरा कार्यक्रमावर आधारित निर्णय घेतला जाईल, अशी माहिती सूत्रांनी दिली. आयसीसीच्या भविष्य दौरा कार्यक्रमामुळे बीसीसीआयला फक्त ९ संघांची परवानगी मिळू शकते, ज्यात एकूण ७६ सामने खेळले जातील. यासाठी सध्याची विंडो वाढवली जाऊ शकते. सूत्रांच्या माहितीनुसार, ‘जोपर्यंत २०२३ मध्ये नवीन भविष्य दौरा कार्यक्रम येत नाही, तोपर्यंत आयपीएलमध्ये फक्त ९ संघच चांगल्या पद्धतीने खेळू शकतात.’ दुसरं मोठं कारण म्हणजे बीसीसीआय नव्या फ्रँचायझीसाठी ३०० मिलियन डॉलर म्हणजे जवळपास २००० कोटी रुपयांच्या बेस प्राइसबाबत विचार करत आहे. एकाच ठिकाणाहून या प्रकारची गुंतवणूक येईल का याबाबतचं चित्र अद्याप अस्पष्ट आहे. सूत्रांच्या मते, ‘गुंतवणूकदार आहेतच, तो मुद्दा नाही. पण टेबलवर आवश्यक खरेदीदार येतील का, जिथे बोली लावणं प्रतिस्पर्धी प्रक्रिया होईल. यावरच ठरवलं जाईल.’ आयपीएलमध्ये गुजरातचा संघ? ‘टाइम्स ऑफ इंडिया’च्या वृत्तानुसार, तिसरं कारण म्हणजे अहमदाबादच्या मोटेरा स्टेडिअममध्ये सरदार पटेल स्टेडिअम तयार होत आहे. हे मैदान सामन्यांसाठी मार्च २०२० पर्यंत उपलब्ध होऊ शकतं. १.१ लाख प्रेक्षक बसण्याची क्षमता असलेलं हे जगातलं सर्वात मोठं स्टेडिअम असणार आहे. त्यामुळे या मैदानाची स्वतःची फ्रँचायझी नसण्याला अर्थ उरत नाही. जाणकारांच्या मते, ‘अहमदाबादमध्ये क्रिकेटसाठी आणि उपलब्ध संसाधने लक्षात घेता नवीन फ्रँचायझी येऊ शकते. त्यामुळे फ्रँचायझीसाठी नवीन टेंडर आलं तर स्वाभाविकपणे अनेक जण याच्या बाजूने असतील आणि भविष्यात यामुळे काही मानके निश्चित होतील.’ बीसीसीआयसमोर इतरही प्रश्न बीसीसीआयकडे १० व्या फ्रँचायझींचा समावेश करण्यापूर्वी इतरही अनेक मुद्दे आहेत. कोची टस्कर्सचाही बीसीसीआयसमोर प्रश्न आहे, ज्याला १५०० कोटी रुपये देणं (मध्यस्थाद्वारे) आहे. आयपीएलमधून बाहेर झालेल्या डेक्कन चार्जर्ससोबत आयसीआयसीआयच्या नेतृत्त्वात मध्यस्थता अंतिम टप्प्यात आहे. आणखी एक मध्यस्थता पुण्याच्या सहारा वॉरियर्ससोबतही आहे. सूत्रांच्या माहितीनुसार, ‘कोची टस्कर्सला पैसे किंवा मताधिकाराचा पर्याय दिला जाईल का हा प्रश्न आहे. भलेही बीसीसीआय काही बाबतीत बॅकफूटवर आहे आणि काही बाबतीत मजबूत आहे, पण तरीही कायदेशीर प्रक्रिया सुरू आहे आणि त्याला योग्य पद्धतीने हाताळणंच योग्य आहे.’ यावर १ डिसेंबरला होणाऱ्या सर्वसाधारण बैठकीत निर्णय होण्याची शक्यता आहे. यावर्षी खेळलेले ८ संघ आतापर्यंत आयपीएलच्या १२ एडिशन खेळल्या गेल्या आहेत. ज्यात चॅम्पियन मुंबई इंडियन्ससह चेन्नई सुपरकिंग्ज, रॉयल चॅलेंजर्स बंगळुरू, दिल्ली कॅपिटल्स, सनरायझर्स हैदराबाद, कोलकाता नाईट रायडर्स, राजस्थान रॉयल्स आणि किंग्ज इलेव्हन पंजाब यांचा समावेश आहे.
