Rashid, jo apni tezi aur chalaak spin bowling ke liye duniya bhar mein mashhoor hain, aur Omarzai, jo batting aur bowling dono mein dhamaka kar sakte hain, ne thodi si break lene ka faisla kiya hai. Yeh MI New York ke liye bada jhatka hai, kyunki Rashid pichhle season mein unke sabse bade match-winner the, jinhone 7 matches mein 10 wickets liye the, aur woh bhi ek shandaar economy rate ke saath.
Yeh baat dil ko chhooti hai kyunki Rashid ka IPL 2025 mein bhi performance kuch khaas nahi raha. Gujarat Titans ke liye khelte hue unhone 15 matches mein sirf 9 wickets liye, aur unka average 57.11 tha, jo unke career ka sabse kharab tha. Unke khilaaf 33 sixes mare gaye, jo IPL ke ek season mein kisi bhi bowler ke khilaaf sabse zyada hai. Omarzai bhi Punjab Kings ke liye IPL 2025 mein final tak pahunche, lekin unka personal contribution bhi kuch khaas nahi raha. Aise mein, dono khiladiyon ka break lena samajh mein aata hai. Thakawat aur form ki kami kisi bhi khiladi ke liye badi samasya ban sakti hai, aur shayad yeh break unhe nayi urja de.
Lekin yahan se kahani thodi roshni ki taraf jaati hai. MLC 2025 ke liye aur bhi Afghan khiladi hain jo apna jalwa dikha sakte hain. Naveen-ul-Haq, Noor Ahmad, aur Waqar Salamkheil jaise khiladi apne teams ke liye khelne ke liye tayaar hain, aur yeh unke liye ek bada mauka hai apne talent ko duniya ke saamne laane ka. Naveen-ul-Haq, jo MI New York ke liye khelenge, apni tezi aur swing se bowlers ko pareshan kar sakte hain. Yaad hai jab Naveen ne IPL 2023 mein Lucknow Super Giants ke liye apni bowling se sabko chauka diya tha? Unhone Virat Kohli ke saath thodi si chhoti si takraar bhi ki thi, jo fans ke liye ek yaadgaar pal ban gaya. Aise khiladi chhote teams ko bada boost dete hain.
Aur dekha jaye toh MLC mein MI New York ke paas ab bhi ek nayi taakat hai. Nicholas Pooran, jo T20 cricket ke ek bade superstar hain, ko team ka naya captain banaya gaya hai. Pooran ne IPL 2025 mein 524 runs banaye, aur unka strike rate 196.25 tha, jo unki explosive batting ka saboot hai. Unhone pichhle MLC season mein bhi 388 runs banaye the, jo kisi bhi khiladi ke liye bada achievement hai. Pooran ke leadership mein MI New York ek nayi shuruaat kar sakta hai. Yeh team, jo 2023 mein champion bani thi, ab bhi apne aap ko sabit karne ke liye tayaar hai.
Iske bawajood, thodi si chinta wapas laut aati hai. MLC 2025 ke liye Afghan khiladiyon ke participation par thodi si uncertainty hai, kyunki US ne Afghanistan ke citizens ke liye travel ban laga diya hai. Gulbadin Naib aur Fazalhaq Farooqi jaise khiladi abhi bhi visa ka intezaar kar rahe hain. Yeh ban chhote teams ke liye aur bhi mushkil khadi kar sakta hai, kyunki Afghan khiladi MLC ke liye ek bada attraction hain. Agar yeh khiladi nahi khel paaye, toh na sirf teams ka balance bigdega, balki fans ka excitement bhi thoda kam ho sakta hai.
Rashid aur Omarzai ke na hone se MI New York ko naye heroes ki talash karni hogi. Lekin cricket ek aisa khel hai jahan chhote khiladi bhi bade naam bana sakte hain. Yaad hai jab 2019 World Cup mein Afghanistan ke Mohammad Nabi ne apni team ke liye akela ladai ladi thi? Aise hi, shayad MLC 2025 mein koi naya Afghan star ubhar ke aaye. Lekin abhi ke liye, fans ke dil mein thodi si kami toh rahegi hi.
