“Having captaincy or not will not make any difference” – Irfan Pathan said about Rohit’s batting.
Team India’s former star all-rounder Irfan Pathan believes that Rohit Sharma will adopt the same aggressive attitude in IPL 2024 which he had adopted in the 2023 ODI World Cup. Let us tell you that Mumbai Indians (MI) bought Hardik Pandya from Gujarat Titans (GT) before the IPL 2024 auction. Later, he appointed Baroda all-rounder (Hardik Pandya) as his captain in place of Rohit for the upcoming edition of this cash rich league. Under the captaincy of Rohit, Mumbai Indians have won five IPL titles. During a discussion on Star Sports, Pathan was asked whether Rohit will play more freely in IPL 2024 since he is no longer the captain. Responding to this, Irfan said, “Weren’t there captaincy restrictions on him in the 50-over World Cup? There too he was the captain and played with an amazing strike rate. I think it will not make any difference whether there is captaincy or not. He has changed his outlook for some time now, it will make a difference in a short time. I think he will continue that template.” The former Indian all-rounder said that Rohit’s positive batting approach has benefited him a lot in recent times. Irfan said that, “It took him about a year and a half to achieve that template. Earlier, Rohit Sharma used to take his time for the first two or three overs and then score runs quickly. In the last two years, he took the responsibility and said that he will score fast runs from the first over and he has started getting the results now.”

After the retirement of David Warner, there is a lot of discussion about who will open in his place in the Test. The names of players like Cameron Green and Marnus Labuschagne are coming to the fore at this time. But meanwhile, David Warner’s friend Steve Smith has expressed his desire to take his place. I am looking forward to opening in Tests – Steve Smith Australia’s legendary player Steve Smith has expressed his desire to open in the Test format. Speaking on ABC Grandstand after the third day of the third Test against Pakistan, Steve Smith said, ‘I would be happy to be in the top order, if that is what they want to do then I am very keen. I am sure the selectors and Ron (Andrew McDonald) and Pat Cummins will talk after this match. But yes, I am very interested in this role. Steve Smith has been an amazing batsman for Australia at number-3 and number-4. At number-3, Steve Smith has scored runs at an average of 67.07, which includes 8 centuries. At the same time, in number-4, he has scored runs at an average of 61.46 which includes 19 centuries. Also read- Josh Hazlewood took three wickets in a single over, putting Pakistan on the back foot. Players like openers Matt Shaw, Cameron Bancroft and Marcus Harris are in line to replace David Warner in the Test format. Some experts have also taken the name of Cameron Green. Australia’s head coach Andrew McDonald had said a few weeks ago that Marnus Labuschagne bats at number 3. After the retirement of David Warner, he can be promoted as an opener. After the Test series against Pakistan, Australia will play a Test series against West Indies at home. Whose first match will be played in Adelaide from 17 January.
Jaiswal is troubled by the fear of being dropped from the Test team, that is why he is praising captain Rohit a lot.
He further said, “Rohit Sharma helps me maintain a positive mindset, and we need to score runs quickly against the new ball. I just wanted to give a good start and that was all I had in mind because we had to win the match.”

When the pitch is bad, somehow the Indian team performs best there – Aakash Chopra
The Cape Town Test match was over in less than two days. Aakash Chopra (Photo Source: Twitter) Team India recently registered a historic win by defeating South Africa by 7 wickets in Cape Town. This was the shortest match in the history of Test cricket. (depending on the balls). After this match, there is discussion everywhere about the pitch of Cape Town. In this match played in Cape Town, the fast bowlers got a lot of help from the pitch and the batsmen had to struggle to a great extent to score runs. In this series, now former Team India cricketer Akash Chopra has given his opinion. He believes that whenever the pitch is bad, Team India performs its best in that difficult situation. While hosting JioCinema’s daily sports show ‘#AAKASHVANI’, Aakash Chopra gave his opinion about the Cape Town pitch. Indian team never complains about the pitch – Aakash Chopra Chopra said, “When a Test match lasts for one and a half days, some results also come. There are some talks regarding the pitch. Some questions have been asked. India have never complained about the quality of the pitches offered. Last time the Wanderers pitch was really bad. To be honest, some players could have got hurt due to this. This pitch of Cape Town was also bad. India still focused on the match and did not complain. I also remember that pitch in Perth (Australia). And it was really bad. You can’t justify a pitch where the ball comes off good length and goes over the keeper’s head. There also India did not say anything. He just competed and showed fighting spirit. In fact, when the pitch is bad, somehow the Indian team performs best there. I think neither such pitches nor dusty pitches are good for the game in India. This is simply not good for the game of cricket.” Also read: Brett Lee seen talking in Hindi in Big Bash League, watch video
