“If a manufacturer cannot produce a ball which can last for 50 overs, might as well change the manufacturer. There\u2019s nothing wrong with changing the manufacturer. What is this compulsion with only using the Kookaburra?,” Gambhir said.<\/p>\n
Commentator Harsha Bhogle also joined the debate, advocating for the use of Duke balls to aid bowlers in T20 cricket<\/a>. “I will reiterate this. We need greater balance between bat and ball and in a situation where the pitches aren’t helping, the ball must do more in the air. How about a Duke ball, a ball with a more pronounced seam, that allows more lateral movement and ensures batters can’t just hit through the line at will. Love to hear expert opinions on this,” Bhogle expressed on social media.<\/p>\n During the 2024 IPL season, bowlers have faced unprecedented challenges as batsmen dominate, effortlessly going close and sometimes chasing down totals exceeding 200 with remarkable ease.
In a tweet, Bhogle emphasized the need for a balance between bat and ball, especially when pitches do not favour bowlers.<\/p>\n
