Charbel Coorey (Australia fan) and Nash Sant (India and Mumbai Indians fan) discuss the blockbuster clash between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Chennai Super Kings. We also touch on James Anderson retirement news and what's the way forward for England.

Welcome to Top of the Morning by Mint, your weekday newscast that  brings you five major stories from the world of business. It's Thursday, May 9, 2024, and I'm Nelson John. Let's dive in:Indian benchmark market indices remained largely muted for the second straight day on Wednesday. BSE's Sensex ended in the red, falling 0.06 percent, settling below its previous close. NSE's Nifty 50, on the other hand, closed largely flat, dropping 45 points.The biggest spectacle of Indian cricket is in full swing. The Indian Premier League started early last month and is nearing its final leg as 10 teams battle it out for the coveted trophy, which comes with a prize money of ₹20 crore. The tournament—usually the biggest TV event every year—exhibits a peculiar trend among its fan base. According to a recent study by marketing analytics firm Crisp and agency Kadence, nearly half of IPL viewers don't consistently support a specific team. However, there are some favourites. The survey, which looked into brand-recognition dynamics and involved about 20,000 people, shows that there's a strong emotional connection that goes beyond just victories. Take Chennai Super Kings, for example; a lot of their appeal comes from the 'Dhoni effect.' Despite not topping the table like they do every year, CSK has emerged as one of the fan favourites. Nearly a third of those surveyed from 13 Indian cities said they prefer the team over others. Mint's Varuni Khosla reports on the survey, which revealed that more than 86 percent of the fans prefer one of four teams. These teams are CSK, Royal Challengers Bangalore, Mumbai Indians, and Kolkata Knight Riders. Varuni also looks at how the league's brand value hasn't budged an inch as ad rates remain on par with the previous year.Since you are listening to this podcast, it is fair to assume that you get your information from podcasts. Now, imagine listening to a podcast run by the government. The consumer affairs ministry is taking creative steps to combat consumer fraud with the launch of a new podcast. Aimed at educating digitally literate consumers about fraudulent practices, the podcast will utilize storytelling to share real experiences of fraud victims and how their issues were resolved. Mint's Dhirendra Kumar reports on the initiative being developed by the Central Consumer Protection Authority. The podcast is set to air episodes every Sunday across various social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube.The government is mulling over a proposal to eliminate import duty on business jets, aligning it with the zero-duty policy on commercial jets. Mint's aviation correspondent Anu Sharma, along with Gireesh Chandra Prasad, reports on the change advocated by the civil aviation ministry. The tax changes aim to stimulate growth in the private charters industry, which has stagnated over the last decade and a half with only 100-120 operators. The current tax, a modest 2.5%, has been in place for nearly fifteen years under a sunset clause, set to expire at the end of March 2024. The rationale behind this move is to level the playing field between the commercial and private aviation sectors. As of December, India had 381 aircraft and helicopters registered under non-scheduled operations, serving not just large conglomerates like Reliance and Tata but also offering more flexible travel options without fixed schedules, unlike commercial airlines. However, any decision on this duty removal will likely wait until the formation of a new government, as indicated by finance ministry officials.Demand for enterprise 5G services in India's $254-billion IT industry might be lower than expected this year. Big players like Tata Consultancy Services, Infosys, HCL Technologies, Wipro, and Tech Mahindra are bracing for slower growth, particularly from telecom clients, who contribute over 10% of their yearly revenue. In FY24, revenue from telecom clients dipped by almost 3% to $8.25 billion. Tech Mahindra took a hard hit, losing 12.1% in annual telecom revenue. Analysts predict a further 3-5% decline in telecom revenue for these firms in FY25. Mint's IT reporter Shouvik Das reports on this downturn, which could mean a loss of over $400 million in revenue.Amid general elections, the Centre has lifted the ban on onion exports, bringing relief to farmers. Last year, onion exports were banned to stabilize retail prices amid low production. Maharashtra's farmers protested the ban, demanding a reversal. The recent lift, just before the western state goes to polls, comes with a minimum export price and a 40% duty, citing improved supplies and stable domestic prices. But can the decision be reversed? Current retail prices are 56% higher than this time last year, making exports viable. However, if prices surge due to exports or crop losses, the decision might be overturned. Hopes rest on a promising monsoon to boost local supplies. So, are export restrictions common? Does such a move have other implications as well? Mint's Sayantan Bera tackles these questions in today's Mint Primer.We'd love to hear your feedback on this podcast. Let us know by writing to us at feedback@livemint.com.

April 18, 2008. The first match of the IPL was played between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Kolkata Knight Riders. IPL is into its 17th season and has seen numerous players turn up for different franchises. Some players turned out to be only one-season wonders. The likes of MS Dhoni, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Dinesh Karthik, who played in the inaugural IPL season, are still active. The talent IPL has seen is enormous. It has honed some of the superstars of world cricket. In this IPL special series ‘IPLchi Ratne Pt 1', we look at three stellar players who made their name in the IPL. All three players hail from Gujarat. Jasprit Bumrah and Hardik Pandya were scouted and signed by Mumbai Indians and they're integral to Mumbai's success. Axar Patel was with Mumbai in 2013, but his breakthrough season was in 2014 with Punjab Kings. The first episode of the series is presented by freelance journalist Rujuta Luktuke and the Hindu's sports journalist Amol Karhadkar…  १८ एप्रिल २००८ ला IPLचा पहिला सामना खेळला गेला आणि २०२४मध्ये IPLचा १७वा हंगाम सुरु आहे. IPLने काही खेळाडू असे पहिले कि ज्यांचा प्रभाव केवळ एखाद-दोन हंगाम होता तर महेंद्र सिंह धोनी, विराट कोहली, रोहित शर्मा, दिनेश कार्तिक सारखे काही खेळाडू असे आहेत जे पहिल्या हंगामापासून आंतरराष्ट्रीय क्रिकेट आणि IPLमध्ये खेळत आहेत. IPLने केवळ भारतीय क्रिकेटच नव्हे तर जागतिक क्रिकेटला देखील एका वेगळ्या उंचीवर नेऊन ठेवलं. काही युवा आणि उभरत्या खेळाडूंची कारकीर्द IPLने घडवली. IPLची रत्ने ह्या IPL विशेष मालिकेच्या पहिल्या भागात आपण असे तीन खेळाडू बघणार आहोत ज्यांनी IPLमध्ये आपलं नाणं खणखणीत वाजवलं आणि आज ते भारतीय संघाचे अविभाज्य खेळाडू आहेत. तिन्ही खेळाडू गुजरात राज्यातून येतात, दोघे अजूनही मुंबई इंडियन्स संघाकडून खेळतात तर एका खेळाडूने मुंबई इंडियन्स संघासोबत एक हंगाम घालवला व पंजाबला जाऊन आपली छाप पाडली. जसप्रीत बुमराह, हार्दिक पांड्या आणि अक्षर पटेल हे ते तीन खेळाडू आहेत. मालिकेचा पहिला भाग सादर करत आहेत मुक्त पत्रकार ऋजुता लुकतुके आणि द हिंदूचा क्रीडा पत्रकार अमोल कऱ्हाडकर...

A packed weekend in the IPL featured games between Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers Bangalore, Mumbai Indians and Delhi Capitals, and Lucknow Super Giants and Gujarat Titans.  In game one Virat Kohli and Jos Buttler traded 100s. Rajasthan eventually came out on top, and there are questions for RCB. Can anyone except Virat Kohli score any runs for them? This morning, Mumbai Indians finally won a match, as they beat Delhi Capitals easily. Romario Shepherd hit over 30 from the final over, bowled by Anrich Nortje. Is there any hope for Delhi, and is the beginning of a charge for Mumbai Indians.  Then finally, Lucknow Super Giants have Yash Thakur. Thakur picked up 5 wickets to help LSG fight back against the Titans to set fire to their innings and set up a win.  Want to create live streams like this?

Kolkata Knight Riders demolished Delhi Capitals bowling in the game today. KKR scored 272 runs thanks to Narine and Dre Russ, with a little help from some other KKR batters too. Delhi Capitals look awful.  Yesterday we saw RCB crumble against Lucknow Super Giants. Royal Challengers Bangalore could not deal with the pace of Mayank Yadav. He bowled multiple balls over 150kph and propelled LSG to an easy win.  And on Monday Rajasthan Royals beat Mumbai Indians with ease. This is big trouble for Mumbai Indians who are rock bottom of the IPL table.  Use the code: CRICKETPOD for 20% off + free shipping at Manscaped.com Links to podcast audio: https://linktr.ee/thecricketpod Our website: thecricketpod.com Support the podcast: patreon.com/thecricketpod Buy merchandise: https://seriouscricket.co.uk/teamwear/stores/the-cricket-podcast/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thecricketpod Buy coffee: https://cricketcoffeeco.com/products/the-cricket-podcast-coffee Twitter and Instagram: @thecricketpod Want to create live streams like this?

MS Dhoni and the Chennai Super Kings take on Virat Kohli and Royal Challengers Bangalore. CSK v RCB is a classic of the IPL and a fitting way to begin the tournament, but who will take the bragging rights on this occasion? The 17th edition of the IPL is here! CSK got things going against RCB, eventually recording a comfortable win in Ruturaj Gaikwad's first game in charge. RCB started well, but 4 wickets for Mustafizur and an electric start to Rachin Ravindra's IPL career were good enough for Chennai.

Royal Challengers Bangalore claimed their first Women's Premier League title after beating Delhi Capitals in the final. We speak to former England captain Charlotte Edwards who won the tournament last year with Mumbai Indians. Alison Mitchell, Charu Sharma and Geoff Lemon all discuss Australia's decision to withdraw from their men's T20 series against Afghanistan later this year.And, with the Indian Premier League returning this week, we find out what it takes to spot the next IPL star?

Royal Challengers Bangalore are WPL champions and Kate Cross has the inside story. Meanwhile, Alex Hartley's Multan Sultans come so close to winning the PSL in last-ball drama.

The IPL 2024 (Indian Premier League) will kick off on March 22 with the Southern Derby between Chennai Super Kings and Royal Challengers Bangalore. But this IPL feels different from the rest. Why so? Not just the players, but even selectors are padding up for what follows next. The T20 World Cup that begins on June 1. Players will be eager to make their cases and earn a ticket to the West Indies and the USA. Captain Rohit Sharma, his deputy Hardik Pandya, Suryakumar Yadav and Jasprit Bumrah are the only players who have confirmed tickets for the World Cup. Even Virat Kohli's spot is up for the debate. So, is it just another year of IPL or is it a selection trial for the T20 World Cup berth? Aditya Joshi, Amol Gokhale and Amol Karhadkar ponder on Weekly Katta… IPL २०२४ चं बिगुल वाजलंय. जातविजेते चेन्नई सुपर किंग्ज आणि रॉयल चॅलेंजर्स बेंगळुरू २२ मार्चपासून पुढचे आठ आठवडे IPLचा धुरळा उडवणार आहेत. त्याचबरोबर त्या त्या संघांचे चाहते देखील सोशल मीडियावर एकमेकांना भिडतील. पण एकंदरीतच हे IPL वेगळं वाटतंय. कारण IPL नंतर लगेचच आठवड्याच्या आत १ जून पासून T२० विश्वचषक सुरु होईल. त्यामुळे खेळाडूंबरोबरच निवडसमितीची देखील परीक्षा असणारे. कर्णधार रोहित शर्मा, उपकर्णधार हार्दिक पांड्या, सूर्यकुमार यादव आणि जसप्रीत बुमराह हे चौघं वगळता कोणाचंच स्थान पक्कं नाहीये. विराट कोहलीच्या स्थानावर देखील प्रश्नचिन्ह आहे. त्यामुळे जुन्या-नव्या सर्व खेळाडूंना आपलं नाणं खणखणीत वाजवावं लागणारे. त्यामुळे यंदाचं IPL फक्त IPL असेल का वर्ल्ड कपची निवड चाचणी हा कळीचा मुद्दा आहे आणि त्यावर वीकली कट्टयावर चर्चा करत आहेत आदित्य जोशी, अमोल गोखले आणि अमोल कऱ्हाडकर...

We also debate how damaging Devon Conway's injury will be and, of course, whether MS Dhoni will lead #WhistlePodu to another title.Delhi Capitals: Rishabh Pant's return is filling all the headlines, but is it fair to put so much expectation on his shoulders? There's also talk about the Australian connection, the spin strength of Kuldeep and Axar, and whether young players like Kumar Kushagra and Yash Dhull will have a positive impact.Gujarat Titans: Hardik Pandya is gone, but there's still plenty of experience in this squad as they look to return to a third consecutive final. We discuss the impact of Mohammad Shami's injury, try to figure out which overseas players will best balance the side and whether Spencer Johnson has a big role to play.Kolkata Knight Riders: Binksy's old favourite Andre Russell is back for another campaign, but can they improve on last year's 7th placed finish? We're excited to watch another Rinku Singh season, and there's excitement about a spin attack that could include Suyash Sharma alongside Varun Chakaravarthy, but what about the seamers?Lucknow Super Giants: The not-just-regular giants have made the playoffs in both of their two seasons, but there are plenty of questions leading into this upcoming campaign. How fit is KL Rahul? Can Shamar Joseph light up the tournament? And can Deepak Hooda get back to the form that saw him earn an international call up?Look out for part 2, which will release in 24 hours' time, in which we'll discuss the Mumbai Indians, Punjab Kings, Rajasthan Royals, Royal Challengers Bangalore and Sunrisers Hyderabad.

On this episode of The Cricket Podcast we continue with our IPL 2024 Team Previews. This episode is a big one, featuring three of the biggest franchises in the Indian Premier League: Chennai Super Kings, Royal Challengers Bangalore and Kolkata Knight Riders. Are any of them contenders for this year's IPL title. Chennai Super Kings go into this year after winning the tournament last year. MS Dhoni is still in charge and with players like Jadeja, Chahar, Moeen Ali, the Dube and more backing him up they look like they could be a threat to win the IPL again. Can they secure another championship or might this be one tournament to far for the legendary Dhoni? Royal Challengers Bangalore made a big trade before the auction, picking up Cameron Green to bolster their batting. Along with the acquisition of Alzarri Joseph they seem like they could have improved for this year's IPL. However, there are weaknesses in other areas of the team and their bowling, in particular, looks like it could come under pressure. Will RCB be able to pull it together and finally deliver Virat Kohli the title he wants? Finally we talk Kolkata Knight Riders. They feature an exciting batting line up with Rinku Singh, Andre Russell and now Phil Salt providing serious firepower to their batting card. Backed up by a spin trio lead by Narine they could be a real handful with the ball too, especially if we see Mitchell Starc hit his stride. Could they be the dark horses for the IPL title?

Fourteen New Zealand cricketers went under the hammer in the Indian Premier League auction - including rising star Rachin Ravindra. Six of them were 'sold' to the League's franchises. Daryl Mitchell was bought by the defending champion Chennai Super Kings for $2.7 million. Pace bowler Lockie Ferguson is going to Royal Challengers Bangalore for $385,000. And after a strong Cricket World Cup last month Ravindra has been on the outer with Black Caps selectors for the T-20 format, but the allrounder was tipped to be popular with IPL franchises. Ravindra set his base price at a relatively low $100,000, but was picked up by the Chennai Super Kings for $350,000. Ravi Ravindra, Rachin's father, spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

Royal Challengers Bangalore could not qualify for the IPL playoffs for the first time in four years. They have never won the IPL but they had raised their fans' hopes during the last three seasons after making it to the last four.

EatSure presents The RCB Podcast - Game Changers with Virat Kohli For years, Virat Kohli has been a game-changer. For Indian cricket, for RCB and for all of Indian society even. But the past couple of years have been slightly different. They've been a game-changer for him. His numbers aren't up to his usual high standards, he's quit captaincy and he's also become a dad. These are all big life and career changes. We talk about all this and more. EatSure is proud to partner with Royal Challengers Bangalore for the RCB Podcast.

EatSure presents The RCB Podcast - Game Changers with Mohammed Siraj Mohammad Siraj was quarantining in a strange hotel room in a strange country when he got the news he was dreading. His beloved father had passed away back home in Hyderabad. His father, an auto-rickshaw driver, had been the one to encourage Siraj's cricket dreams. And now, when their shared desire of playing Test cricket for India was so close to coming true, Siraj found himself all alone. How he dealt with that tragedy, locked up in a room by himself, he'll never be able to fully explain. But what he does know is this: His life was never the same again. The grief never really goes away. But the fire within him burnt bright, and the young man from the crowded streets of Hyderabad went on to make cricket history.

EatSure presents The RCB Podcast - Game Changers with Dinesh Karthik If you watched even a little bit of the 2022 IPL season, you'll know how much of a game-changer DK was for us at RCB. He finished the season with the best strike-rate for any batter with at least 200 runs. At the same time, the season itself was a game-changing one in DK's career. All the hard work from the past few years came together brilliantly. The Indian selectors couldn't ignore him any longer. This was a man who was Player of the Match in India's very first T20I back in 2006, and in 2022, at the age of 37, he found his rightful place playing for India in the T20 World Cup as one of the best finishers in the country.

EatSure presents The RCB Podcast - Game Changers with Glen Maxwell Some athletes can point to one single moment that changed everything for them. A moment that defined their journeys and their outlook on life. Like a lightning strike. But for Maxi, it isn't quite like that. For him, his life and career has been built up by a series of little moments – moments of luck and brilliance, but also the fruits of a lot of hard work. Each moment taught him a little bit more about himself. And took his game a little bit forward. EatSure is proud to partner with Royal Challengers Bangalore for the RCB Podcast.

EatSure presents The RCB Podcast - Game Changers with Josh Hazlewood Time and time again, many moments from many matches have shown us what a treasure Josh Hazlewood is. Since 2020, he's won his team the BBL, the IPL and the World Cup. And to think that three years ago, this was a guy either always rested in T20s or ignored. All because when it came to T20s, he was … well, basic. But now we know, basic doesn't have to be a bad word in this format. Basic can win you matches. Basic can be a game changer. And Josh showed us how. EatSure is proud to partner with Royal Challengers Bangalore for the RCB Podcast.

EatSure presents The RCB Podcast - Game Changers with Mike Hesson It's the same story with so many great sports movies. An underdog side is struggling. The coach or captain comes in and makes a great speech. The players get pumped up. In the climax, at the very last minute, they beat the odds and win. And we, the audience, join in the cheering and the whistles. But in real life matches, this coaching technique is not always a good idea. At least, that's what one RCB coach strongly believes and that's how he's built our team. EatSure is proud to partner with Royal Challengers Bangalore for the RCB Podcast.

EatSure presents The RCB Podcast - Game Changers with Shahbaz Ahmed Shahbaz Ahmed's cricket story, which began in 2003, is just picking up speed. Over the last two-three years, this all-rounder has been a game-changer for Bengal, his domestic team, and also us at RCB. He and DK pulled us out of all kinds of scraps this season. Shahbaz's success is special because he had a rather unconventional journey into top-level cricket. He doesn't come from a big cricketing city, he hasn't played age-group cricket, he never had a famous coach, he was always seen as an outsider. And yet, here he is. It feels like a series of fortunate events – game-changing moments if you will – brought Shahbaz from Mewat to Bangalore.

Our Great Coach on this 'best of' episode is Gary Kirsten. Gary played 101 Test matches and 185 One Day Internationals for South Africa between 1993 and 2004. He retired as the first ever South African to play in 100 tests, and the first Test batsman to make hundreds against each of the other 9 Test nations. He became the coach of the Indian cricket team in 2008 and led them to win the World Cup 2011, the Border-Gavaskar Trophy vs Australia in 2009, the first ever test series win in New Zealand and to become the become the top-ranked team in Test matches. In 2011 he was appointed as head coach of South Africa, and led them to also become the #1 ranked test team. He has also coached the Hobart Hurricanes in the Australian Big Bash League and Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Indian Premier League. Gary is a coach who is deeply authentic, and comfortable expressing both his own vulnerabilities, and heightened expectations. He believes that the quality of his coaching is determined by the effectiveness of his facilitation skills, and so is reflective and philosophical about the techniques needed to reach the athletes he leads. He is that rare breed of person who has been able to reach the pinnacle of his sport as both an athlete and coach, and this lends his story an added layer of credibility, whether it is talking about the deficit of mental skills he experienced as a batsman, or the importance of understanding what the environment requires of you as a leader. This was a great interview, a real highlight for me, and I hope you enjoy it as much we did. If you would like to send us any feedback or if you know a great coach, who has a unique story to share, then we would love to hear from you, please contact us at thegreatcoachespodcast@gmail.com
