If England reaches India 3 days before then it will be a big mistake, why did the former English cricketer say this?
According to reports, England will train in UAE before reaching India on the night of 21 January or the morning of 22 January. Team England (Pic Source-Twitter) After Ben Stokes became the captain and Brendon McCullum was appointed as the head coach, England have completely changed their red ball approach and they are playing very aggressive cricket at the moment. England have been very successful in the longest format of the game, but the India tour starting from January 25 is not going to be easy for them. Ben Stokes and Co. have not yet been tested in spin-friendly conditions. And that’s why former cricketer Steve Harmison believes that the England team will make a big mistake if they reach India just 3 days before the first Test. According to reports, England will train in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) before reaching India on the night of 21 January or the morning of 22 January. Harmison also said that the team cannot go into the first Test without preparation. They may lose 5-0 – Steve Harmison Speaking to talkSPORT, Harmison said, ‘If England go three days early, they could lose 5-0. You cannot go to India without preparation. In fact you cannot go to India even with a lot of preparation, you can be in India six weeks in advance and still not be ready for the first Test. He further said, I would love to know what players like Pietersen, Strauss, Cook would think about England touring India three days before the series. I think they’ll laugh at you. Harmison also said that it is not a new thing in which the visiting team reaches late. Rather, these are the players who have played a huge role in England’s late arrival in India. read this also – SA v IND: Team India is missing that one player a lot – Dinesh Karthik’s big statement
SA v IND: Team India is missing that one player a lot – Dinesh Karthik’s big statement
Mohammed Shami had performed brilliantly in the World Cup 2023. Dinesh Karthik Rohit Sharma (Photo Source: Twitter) Team India’s wicketkeeper batsman Dinesh Karthik said that the Indian team is missing the injured Mohammed Shami in the ongoing Boxing Day Test against South Africa at the SuperSport Park in Centurion. 33-year-old fast bowler Shami was the highest wicket-taker in the 2023 ODI World Cup. He was rested for the series against Australia and South Africa. It was expected that Shami would play an important role in the two-match Test series against the Proteas, but due to an ankle injury, he was ruled out of this series as well. On the second day of the Boxing Day Test, India scored 245 runs thanks to a brilliant century from KL Rahul, after which the hosts ended the day with a score of 256/5. Dinesh Karthik gave a big statement regarding Mohammed Shami Speaking to Cricbuzz, Dinesh Karthik said, “He (Mohammed Shami) has grown in stature as a bowler and leader of the fast bowling group. He is an able lieutenant of Jasprit Bumrah. You want to bowl with a straight seam on a pitch like this. I promise you that, if he had played, he would have definitely got some wickets. The Indian team is really missing him. Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammad Siraj took two wickets each for India. On his Test debut, Prasidh Krishna gave 61 runs in 15 overs and took one wicket. Seam-bowling all-rounder Shardul Thakur could not take a single wicket giving 57 runs in 12 overs. Karthik felt that Prasidh and Shardul did not provide enough support to Bumrah and Siraj on the second day. Karthik further said, “Shardul Thakur and Prasidh Krishna were going close to 118 runs in their 27 overs. On the other hand, Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj gave only 111 runs in their 31 overs. Siraj was a bit expensive, especially in the last spell as he bowled some brilliant balls. You could see that whenever he was on the field you felt that he could get you a wicket or two. Whereas with Shardul or Prasidh, you have to wait for the batsman to make a mistake.” Also read: Former cricketers criticized Rohit Sharma’s captaincy

This is something that Rahul Dravid and Rohit Sharma might have thought about during the break and then decided to go with Prasidh Krishna and Shardul Thakur in place of Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj.” “They missed this opportunity”: Vernon Philander At the same time, Vernon Philander said, “Maybe India wanted to save Jasprit Bumrah after the 6 over spell before lunch. I think this is an opportunity where India can hold on to the match, which they lost. India gave away 42 runs and this gave South Africa momentum after lunch. They missed this opportunity.” 4 South African opening batsmen who have scored 50+ scores most times in Test cricket Best playing 11 of the year 2023 5 batsmen who have scored the most centuries in test cricket away from home (active players) 5 Indian players who have scored the most runs in Tests against South Africa (Active Players) 6 Indian batsmen who scored centuries in South Africa Top 5 players sold in IPL 2024 auction 5 most expensive players sold in IPL history 3 players who have taken more than 500 wickets in test cricket for Australia Top 3 players who scored most runs as captain in IPL 4 famous cricketers whose jerseys were retired
