CRICKEEDA

In 1970, the ICC voted to suspend South Africa from international cricket indefinitely because of its government's policy of apartheid, an overtly racist policy, which led them to play only against the white nations(England, Australia, New Zealand), and field only white players. The ban was lifted in 1991 and after that Proteas never looked back and produce many great players like Jacques Kallis, Graeme Smith, AB DE Villiers and many more. But it is also a sad fact that only 11 players can represent the nation at one time and with plenty of talent it is not possible that every player gets a chance to play international cricket. So some talented players who didn't get a chance to represent their country migrate and explore their opportunities in other countries. Same is the case with SA, many great players in cricket history were born in SA but served other countries.  Let's look at such few greats of game. Top 6 South African Born Players Playing For Other Nations 1. Kevin ...

Watching our favorite players playing their signature shots is delight to watch. Some players play some specific shots to such a perfection that those specific shots are  known by their name. Signature Shots Of Top Players   Straight Drive: Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar:  The Little Master almost always hit the ball with a little effort with a 'classic'  straight  bat. There were just a few sights better in cricket than his ' straight drive . ' No cricketer, past or present, has played the shot better than the Mumbai batting maestro. Helicopter Shot : Mahendra Singh Dhoni: The  shot  got its name and fame through M. S. Dhoni,  who played  on a regular basis as a way to score boundaries against full and yorker length deliveries.

  Cricket is generally referred as a Gentle Man’s game but we have seen players expressing their emotions on and off the field I’ll share the top 5 saddest cricket moments caught on camera according 5.Dale Steyn after losing semi-final of ODI WC 2015 Steyn gun fell on the ground after being hit for a six in the last over. That six had ruined the hopes of South African cricketers from reaching their maiden final. Even a player like  Ab De Villers  despite being known for having a good attitude on the field couldn’t stop crying after losing the match. That match affected Steyn so much that he couldn’t perform the same way after that loss. It was a sad affair for the SA side which was full of legends like AB, Morkel, Amla, Faf, Tahir, Miller, Dummy and many more. The fact that might hurt South African’s will be that their greatest player  ABD  could never lift the WC which he deserved the most 4.Virat Kohli after T20 WC 2016 This man carried the team’s batting on h...

These two teams last time met in the eliminator of IPL 2020 where SRH defeated RCB by 6 wickets which led to an another empty season for Virat kohli and his team.
