THIS TIME 300 PAR, THE BOWLER IS SLEEPING THE BATTER!

New Delhi: You may have heard the slogan ‘Ab Ki Bar 400 Par’ in the election atmosphere. Now trending in cricket is ‘Ob Ki Bar 300 Par’. So what is this 300 par nara? 300 pars are 300 runs. 300 runs in cricket is not a big deal. It has become easy to score 300 runs in Tests or daily. But have you ever thought of scoring 300 runs in T20 format? Soon 300 runs are going to be scored in T-20 cricket.

We are talking about the ongoing IPL in India. As the IPL platform has become heaven for the batsmen. The same is the big nightmare for the bowler. It seems that the batsman has no mercy for the bowler. He is washing his mind. And there is a big score on the board. The way the batsmen are batting now, it seems that 250 runs have become commonplace in the T20 format. Sunrisers Hyderabad posted a huge score of 287 runs against Royal Challengers Bengaluru. Similarly, Hyderabad made 277 runs against Mumbai India. If such a score happens in IPL, then 300 runs is not too far off.

There were days, the bowler was given honor in the cricket match. When 250 runs were scored in the day, chasing runs was becoming a challenge for the opposing team. But now everything has changed. Now the batter’s rout is going on. Although the big score in the cricket match, the audience likes it. But the big thing is that it is reducing the quality of cricket. In a cricket match, it is necessary to prepare a pitch that suits both the bowler and the batsman. Otherwise, the day is not far, when even 200 runs will fall short in the 10 over format.
