“I am not a batsman, I am a tailender…” On which question did uncle Iftikhar Ahmed get angry; video went viral

A clip of Iftikhar Ahmed is going viral in which he is describing himself as a tailender and not a batsman. Iftikhar Ahmed (Image Credit- Twitter Iftikhar Ahmed’s career is in danger after continuous poor performances for Pakistan. Once a reliable lower middle-order batsman, Iftikhar failed to perform well for the team in the ODI World Cup and the recently concluded T20 World Cup, after which he was severely criticized by cricket experts. PCB chief Mohsin Naqvi has called for a ‘surgery’ on the Pakistan team after their poor showing in the T20 World Cup and said all underperforming players will be axed. Pakistan have a lot of white-ball cricket to play with series against Australia, South Africa and Zimbabwe before the Champions Trophy in 2025. In such a situation, if Mohsin Naqvi’s words are to be believed, then it will be difficult for Iftikhar to regain his place in the Pakistan team unless he changes his performance. Iftikhar Ahmed has only one way left Iftikhar will have a chance to attract attention in the Champions Cup (Pakistan’s domestic tournament) starting on September 12, where he will play under the leadership of Mohammad Rizwan in the team Wolves. If he wants to make a comeback in the team, he will have to perform brilliantly in this domestic tournament. Meanwhile, recently a clip of Iftikhar is going viral in which he is calling himself a tailender and not a batsman. In the video, the reporter asked Iftikhar about his struggles while batting in the middle order. However, Iftikhar immediately replied saying that he is not a middle-order batsman or an all-rounder but a tailender.

A middle order player or all-rounder plays at 4 or 5 but I play at 7-8 so I am a tailender. Middle order batsmen and all-rounders play at number 4-5 but I bat at number 7-8 so I consider myself a tailender.” What is a tailender in cricket? Lower order batsmen are called tail-enders. Mostly lower order batsmen are bowlers who stay to bat last. However, finisher would be the right word for Iftikhar as he bats well and hits long sixes.

Shan Masood (Photo Source: X/Twitter) Pakistan team captain Shan Masood revealed an important conversation between him and Shaheen Shah Afridi after the recent two-match Test series against Bangladesh. Let us tell you, a video is going viral on social media in which Shaheen Shah Afridi can be seen removing Shan Masood’s hand from his shoulder during a team meeting. Shan Masood revealed that Shaheen Shah Afridi was moving his hand away because the ace fast bowler had an injury at that place and was in a lot of pain. After the match, Shan Masood said, ‘There is nothing like that. There is a talk that when I put my hand on Shaheen Shah Afridi’s shoulder, he removed it. The fast bowler was not angry with me. A ball from Nahid Rana hit his shoulder and I put my hand on the same place where he was hurt. Shaheen was in a lot of pain and that is why he removed my hand.’ Shan Masood also revealed about the argument with Jason Gillespie Another thing that was seen with Shan Masood during this Test series was that he was angry at Shaheen Shah Afridi when the fast bowler gave a boundary. However, Shan Masood said that he was angry with Jason Gillespie for not using the old ball during the match. Shan Masood further said, ‘I was angry at Jason Gillespie. But this is a different matter. Liton Das hit a shot after which the ball went into the stands. That ball was 8 overs old. When the umpire changed the ball, we saw that it was 18-19 overs old and my argument was that we need a better ball than this. After this, I saw on social media that there was an argument between me and Shaheen. That’s why I rarely see social media during the match.’ Anushka-Ritika fail in front of the wives of these 5 Pakistani cricketers Players with most centuries while chasing a score of 300+ in ODIs Virat Kohli will never be able to achieve these 3 records in his career These legendary cricketers have played only one IPL match “I will make RCB the champion for the first time…”- Priyansh Arya made a big claim List of captains who have won the toss the most number of times in Test cricket- Know who is Rishabh Pant’s girlfriend Isha Negi?

I see them as Indian players who have been rested, they could have been selected for the Duleep Trophy- Sanjay Manjrekar Virat Kohli, Jasprit Bumrah, Rohit Sharma and Sanja Manjrekar (Photo Source: Getty Images) Duleep Trophy 2024 is starting from 5th September. All the big stars are going to be seen playing in the tournament except Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Jasprit Bumrah. Initially there were reports that these three players would be seen playing in the Duleep Trophy, as the BCCI has already warned that if the national team players are free then they will have to participate in domestic cricket. But many great players are surprised that the selectors did not select Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Bumrah for the Duleep Trophy. Meanwhile, cricket commentator Sanjay Manjrekar has also expressed his displeasure over the players being given rest. Sanjay Manjrekar tweeted this Sanjay Manjrekar said on social media that India has played 249 international matches in the last five years. However, Rohit, Kohli and Bumrah have played only 59%, 61% and 34% of these matches respectively. Manjrekar believes that all three players have got enough rest. In such a situation, all three should have been selected for the Duleep Trophy. India has played 249 international matches in the last 5 years. Rohit has played only 59% of them. Virat has played 61% and Bumrah has played 34%. I see them as India players who have been rested, they could have been selected for the Duleep Trophy. India has played 249 international matches in the last 5 years. Rohit has played only 59% of those. Virat 61% & Bumrah 34%. I see them as well rested India players. Could have been selected for the Duleep trophy. — Sanjay Manjrekar (@sanjaymanjrekar) August 28, 2024 Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli were last seen playing in the ODI series against Sri Lanka. Now both the players will be seen playing directly in the Test series against Bangladesh, which will start from September 19. At the same time, Jasprit Bumrah is on a long break after the T20 World Cup 2024. He will return directly from the series against New Zealand. Ravindra Jadeja released by BCCI On August 27, the BCCI announced some changes in the teams for the first round of the Duleep Trophy. The board has released Ravindra Jadeja from the squad, the reason for which has not been given. At the same time, Mohammad Siraj and Umran Malik have been ruled out of the first round due to illness. After the exclusion of both the players, Navdeep Saini and Gaurav Yadav have got a place in the squad.

Sunil Gavaskar got angry again on this decision taken during the Australia tour, said- “Are you going to play or rest…”

Later this year, Team India will play a five-Test long series under the Border Gavaskar Trophy on Australian soil. Sunil Gavaskar Jay Shah (Source X) Team India’s adventure in the Test format will begin in another month. India will play two Tests against Bangladesh from September 19 and three Tests against New Zealand from October 16 on home ground. After this, Team India will play a long series of five Test matches under the Border Gavaskar Trophy on Australian soil later this year. After winning the last two Border-Gavaskar series on Kangaroo land, India is entering the ring as a strong contender this time too. It is known that Team India has been winning this trophy continuously since 2016. India has hosted the trophy in 2016/17, 2022/23, Australia in 2018/19, 2020/21. But for the first time since 1992, India will play a five-Test series against Australia. At the same time, the practice match on the Australia tour was reduced to two days. Sunil Gavaskar is upset with BCCI India’s legendary cricketer Sunil Gavaskar has objected to this. He said that he is disappointed to hear the news that the warm-up match against Australia’s Prime Minister’s playing 11 before the series has been reduced to two days. He said that due to this the young players will miss out on important training. On the other hand, this will also create a situation where senior players will not go for practice. But he believes that young players will get more experience from first-class cricket than a two-day practice match. Gavaskar said that the main purpose of the Australia tour is to play cricket and not to relax. Gavaskar also suggested that the BCCI should take steps to extend the practice match to three days and give a chance to young players. “Australia is thirsty for revenge. If India has to score a hat-trick of series wins on Kangaroo soil, then it will have to be cautious. But there is still time to make the warm-up match three days long. Young players should be given a chance in this practice. This will help the young players to defeat the world test champion Australia.”

“Now we will be ridiculed at the international level”- Kamran Akmal was angry at which decision of Pakistan Cricket Board

Kamran Akmal has criticised the PCB’s decision to hold the second Test against Bangladesh in Karachi without spectators, calling it an “international embarrassment”. Kamran Akmal (Photo Source: Twitter) The 2-match Test series between Pakistan and Bangladesh is scheduled to start on August 21. The first Test between the two teams will be held in Rawalpindi, while the second Test is to be played at the National Stadium in Karachi. But now the PCB has issued an order that this match will be played in an empty stadium. The reason given by the PCB behind this is that renovation work is going on to improve the venue in view of the 2025 Champions Trophy. However, former Pakistan cricketer Kamran Akmal has criticised the PCB’s decision to hold the second Test against Bangladesh in Karachi without spectators and called it a “fair use” “International embarrassment” The former wicketkeeper-batsman said that the board could have organized the match in some other stadium as Pakistan has many options. Kamran Akmal said in a video uploaded on his YouTube channel “The second Test match will be played in Karachi. So I think you know that renovation work is going on in Karachi. They are preparing a stadium for the Champions Trophy. So it will be a joke on Pakistan that Test matches are being played in Pakistan without spectators. And we don’t just have 2-3 stadiums; we also have the Faisalabad stadium. We could have played there as well; it is a top-class stadium. A lot of cricket has happened there.” He further said, “There is a stadium in Multan. And you know that Multan Stadium is very good and the crowd also comes there. So you know that this is your stadium; you could have organized another Test match at any one of these two places. So it would have been good. So I think this would be a mockery of our cricket at the international level. Such things should not happen.”

He hit 10 sixes in his innings. Not only this, the brilliant player completed his century with a six. Many people are praising his innings. Let us tell you, Ishan Kishan has not been seen participating in international cricket for India for a long time. Ishan Kishan refused to participate in Ranji Trophy 2024, after which he has also been dropped from the BCCI central contract.

Pakistani captain Shan Masood got angry on the question of match fixing, said- “No one can say anything about the honesty of the players…”

The World Cup is over now and we need to look ahead.

Let us tell you, after Pakistan’s poor performance in the T20 World Cup 2024, a senior journalist had accused Babar Azam of match fixing. All our players want to win matches for Pakistan- Shan Masood At the pre-series press conference before the start of the Test series against Bangladesh, a reporter asked Shan Masood, what message would he give to his team members after Arshad Nadeem’s historic gold medal at the Olympics? The reporter also said that making the country proud can reward the players more than earning from match fixing and any wrong things. Responding to this, Shan Masood said that he cannot question the intentions of anyone in the team because everyone wants to win matches for Pakistan. I cannot question anyone’s intentions just because you used the word match-fixing. I don’t think anyone can question their integrity in the current system of Pakistan cricket. This is something I don’t agree with at all. The World Cup is over now and we need to look ahead. I can guarantee that all our players want to win matches for Pakistan but wins and losses keep happening and whenever we lose, we feel the most pain.

“You are not a foreign coach who…” Ashish Nehra got angry at Gautam Gambhir! Raised questions about Rohit-Kohli

Gambhir’s experiment, which included changing the Indian batting order twice and trying out a left-right combination, has been criticised. Gautam Gambhir and Ashish Nehra Source The Indian team has suffered a setback in the ODI series between India and Sri Lanka. While the first ODI was tied, the Indian team lost to Sri Lanka by 32 runs in the second ODI. Due to this, the Indian team is forced to level the series by winning the last ODI match. The reason for this is believed to be the poor results of coach Gautam Gambhir. Gambhir’s experiments, which claimed to try a left-right combination with two changes in the Indian batting order, have been criticized. Due to this, some opinions have also been raised that the Indian team has no chance of winning the Champions Trophy series. Ashish Nehra raised questions on Gautam Gambhir’s coaching Ashish Nehra, a former teammate of captain Rohit Sharma and head coach Gautam Gambhir, was asked the same question after Sri Lanka took a crucial 1-0 lead. He did not give a direct answer but criticised Gambhir for focusing on Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma while he could have tried new players in the series. According to the report, the senior batsmen made themselves available for the series after Gambhir’s request. India’s current Sri Lanka tour is Gambhir’s first tour as India’s head coach, and he wanted to spend time with Kohli and Rohit to understand the team. Nehra said Gambhir should have waited as he was not new to the two star players, and instead should have tried out other players and tested India’s bench strength. Ashish Nehra said on Sony Sports- “India’s next series is after 2-3 months, which is a rare thing for us. So for players like Rohit and Kohli…I think there was a better chance to give opportunities to other players during this series. I know Gambhir is the new coach and he wants to spend some time with the experienced players, but it’s not like he doesn’t know both of them.” “He is not a foreign coach who wants to get his equation right with Kohli and Rohit. So it was a good opportunity for him to try out new players and Rohit and Kohli could play when the domestic season starts. I am not saying it is the wrong way, but it could have been one of the strategies in this series.” Riyan Parag, Rishabh Pant, Harshit Rana and Khaleel Ahmed have not played in either of the two ODIs and it will be interesting to see if India make changes to their playing XI for the third and final ODI. Usually, teams try out their bench strength after sealing the series with an unassailable lead.
