विद्यमान विजेते वर्ल्डकपच्या पहिल्या फेरीत गारद; श्रीलंकेने दिला झटका

अबुधाबी: आयसीसी टी-२० वर्ल्डकपचे सर्वाधिक दोन वेळा विजेतेपद मिळणारे आणि विद्यमान विजेते वेस्ट इंडिजला मोठा धक्का बसला आहे. काल गुरुवारी झालेल्या सामन्यात श्रीलंकेने वेस्ट इंडिजचा २० धावांनी पराभव केला आणि विद्यमान विजेत्यांचे स्पर्धेतील आव्हान संपुष्टात आले. चार सामन्यात वेस्ट इंडिजला फक्त एका सामन्यात विजय मिळवता आलाय आता ग्रुप ए मधून इंग्लंड, ऑस्ट्रेलिया आणि दक्षिण आफ्रिका या संघांमध्ये सेमीफायनलमध्ये पोहोचण्यासाठी चुरस असेल. वाचा- या सामन्यात वेस्ट इंडिजने टॉस जिंकून प्रथम गोलंदाजी करण्याचा निर्णय घेतला होता. प्रतिकुल परिस्थितीत श्रीलंकेने १८९ धावांपर्यंत मजल मारली. श्रीलंकेकडून असलंकाने ४१ चेंडूत ६८ धावा तर निसांकाने ४१ चेंडूत ५१ धावा गेल्या. या दोघांनी दुसऱ्या विकेटसाठी ९१ धावांची भागिदारी केली. सेमीफायनलमध्ये पोहोचण्यासाठी वेस्ट इंडिजला या सामन्यात विजय मिळवणे गरजेचे होते. पण त्याच्याकडून शिमरोन हेटमायर आणि निकोलस पुरन वगळता अन्य कोणालाही दुहेरी धावसंख्या करता आली नाही. हेटमायरने ५४ चेंडूत नाबाद ८१ तर पुरनने ३४ चेंडूत ४६ धावा केल्या. २० षटकात वेस्ट इंडिजला ८ बाद १६९ धावा करता आल्या. वाचा- ग्रुप ए मधून आतापर्यंत तीन संघ स्पर्धे बाहेर झाले आहेत. त्यामध्ये बांगलादेश, श्रीलंका आणि वेस्ट इंडिज यांचा समावेश आहे. तर भारताचा समावेश असलेल्या ग्रुप बी मधून फक्त स्कॉटलंड बाहेर गेली आहे. वेस्ट इंडिजने टी-२० वर्ल्डकपचे सर्वाधिक दोन विजेचेपद मिळवली आहेत. त्यांनी २०१२ साली पहिले तर २०१६ साली दुसरे विजेतेपद मिळवले होते. या वर्षी वेस्ट इंडिज संघाची कामगिरी अतिशय खराब झाली. पहिल्या सामन्यात इंग्लंडने आणि त्यानंतर दक्षिण आफ्रिकेने त्यांचा पराभव केला. तिसऱ्या लढतीत बांगलादेश विरुद्ध विजय मिळवून त्यांनी स्पर्धेतील आव्हान कायम ठेवले होते. पण श्रीलंकेने शानदार गोलंदाजी करून त्यांना पराभवाचा धक्का दिला.

IND v SCO : स्कॉटलंडविरुद्धच्या सामन्यात भारतीय संघात कोणता मोठा बदल होऊ शकतो, जाणून घ्या...

दुबई : स्कॉटलंडविरुद्धचा सामना हा भारतासाठी महत्वाचा असणार आहे. कारण या सामन्यात विजयासह भारतीय संघाला रनरेटही वाढवायचा आहे. त्यामुळे भारतीय संघात या सामन्यासाठी काही महत्वाचे बदल होऊ शकतात. भारतीय संघात कोणते बदल होऊ शकतात, पाहा...आतापर्यंतच्या तिन्ही सामन्यांमध्ये भारताने आपल्या संघात बदल केले आहेत. सूर्यकुमार यादव आणि इशान किशन यांना एका सामन्यासाठी संघाबाहेर ठेवण्यात आले होते. त्याचबरोबर दोन सामन्यांनंतर वरुण चक्रवर्तीलाही संघाबाहेर ठेवत आर. अश्विनला तिसऱ्या सामन्यात संधी दिली होती. पहिले दोन्ही सामने भारताने गमावले असले तरी तिसऱ्या सामन्यात मात्र भारताने दणदणीत विजय मिळवला आहे. विजय मिळवल्यावर शक्यतो संघात बदल केले जात नाहीत. पण भारताच्या फलंदाजी क्रमाममध्ये मात्र नक्कीच बदल होऊ शकतो. पहिल्या सामन्यात रोहित शर्मा आणि लोकेश राहुल सलामीला आले होते. पण दुसऱ्या सामन्यात इशान किशनला सलामीला पाठवत रोहित शर्माला तिसऱ्या स्थानावर फलंदाजीला पाठवले होते. या सामन्यात कोहली चौथ्या स्थानावर फलंदाजीला आला होता. मात्र तिसऱ्या सामन्यात भारतीय फलंदाजी क्रमामध्ये मोठा बदल पाहायला मिळाला. तिसऱ्या सामन्यात रोहित आणि राहुल सलामीला आले असले तरी कोहली तिसऱ्या स्थानावर फलंदाजीला आला नव्हता. या सामन्यात कोहली फलंदाजीलाच आला नसल्याचे पाहायला मिळाले. कारण तिसऱ्या स्थानावर रिषभ पंतला बढती देण्यात आली होती, तर चौथ्या स्थानावर हार्दिक पंड्या खेळायला आला होता. चौथ्या सामन्यातही भारतीय संघात परिस्थितीनुसार बदल करण्यात येऊ शकतो. तिसऱ्या सामन्यात जलदगतीने धावा करायच्या होत्या, त्यामुळे रिषभ आणि हार्दिक यांना बढती दिली होती. आता स्कॉटलंडविरुद्धच्या सामन्यात संघात कोणता बदल होईल, असे दिसत नसले तरी फलंदाजी क्रमवारीत नक्कीच बदल पाहायला मिळू शकतात. चौथ्या सामन्यात सूर्यकुमार यादवला बढती देण्याची शक्यता वर्तवली जात आहे. कारण या विश्वचषकात त्याला जास्त संधी मिळालेली नाही. त्यामुळे चौथ्या सामन्यासाठी सूर्यकुमार यादव हा तिसऱ्या किंवा चौथ्या स्थानावर फलंदाजीला येऊ शकतो. एकदंरीत या सामन्यात परिस्थिती नेमकी कशी आहे, त्यावर भारताच्या फलंदाजीचा क्रम अवलंबून असेल.
