“Be relaxed, I have to hit the first ball, but hit it”- Jurel said about his first conversation with Rohit

Team India wicketkeeper-batsman Dhruv Jurel has shared memories of his first conversation with Rohit Sharma during a training session ahead of his debut Test series against England earlier this year. The wicketkeeper-batsman was included in Team India for the first time for India’s home Test series against England. During this series, he got a chance to share the dressing room and interact with the Indian captain. However, Jurel revealed that he could not muster the courage to talk to Rohit and it was Rohit Sharma who came forward to talk to Jurel first. Dhruv Jurel spoke about his conversation with Rohit Sharma In an interview with Jatin Sapru on YouTube, Dhruv Jurel said, “My eyes met Rohit Bhaiya many times, but I could not muster up the courage to talk to him. Then he called out to me, ‘Come here!’. Then he said, ‘What happened? Everything is fine? You have come because you have the strength, you have potential. Relax, be carefree. If you want to hit the first ball, hit it. Just be 100 percent sure and hit it’. That was the conversation and it happened before I had even made my debut.” Jurel, who plays for Uttar Pradesh in domestic cricket, said the mood in the Indian dressing room is much lighter than in his state team. He also recalled the incident when he was hit on the shoulder by India’s throwdown specialist Raghu in the nets and revealed what Axar Patel and Shreyas Iyer told him after that. Jurel said, “There are songs playing in the Indian dressing room. This was completely new for me, because the atmosphere in the state dressing room is not like that. It is very strict there. I was facing Raghu bhai in the nets and I hit a very good drive to him. On the very next ball, he hit a big bouncer on my shoulder. Then Axar and Iyer came to shake hands with me. I was surprised why they were shaking hands with me. They just said, welcome to Indian cricket!”

Vitality Blast 2024: Saif Zaib did not get a wicket because of this strange no ball, video went viral

Saif Zaib’s team had to face defeat by 17 runs in the match. Vitality Blast 2024 (Image Credit- Twitter X) In cricket, a no ball occurs due to a bowling error. It is very rare that a no ball occurs due to any other reason. Generally, if the bowler bowls the ball beyond the crease line, it is a no ball. Apart from this, if the bowler bowls the ball above the waist of the player on strike, it is a no ball. But in the third quarter final of the ongoing Vitality Blast, a strange kind of no ball was seen. Let us tell you that this no ball happened because of the wicketkeeper, due to which bowler Saif Zaib could not get the wicket. It is worth noting that the third quarter final of Vitality Blast was played between Northamptonshire and Somerset at County Ground Northampton on 5 September. Saif Zaib, who came to bowl his third over against Somerset, gave flight to Tom Kohler Cadmore who was on strike, and Cadmore was completely beaten while playing this ball. During this, Lewis McManus, who is behind the wicket, quickly collects the ball and appeals for the stumps. During this, the decision goes to the third umpire, but during the review, the third umpire David Millns found that the wicketkeeper had caught the ball ahead of the stump line. After this, he asked the onfield umpire to call a no ball. On the other hand, the wicketkeeper gets very disappointed after this decision of the umpire. Because on one hand he did not get the stumping wicket and on top of that the ball also became a no ball. On the other hand, after escaping this stumping, Cadmore played a brilliant innings of 63 runs in 43 balls and played an important role in the team’s victory by 17 runs. A No Ball in the Vitality Blast because the wicketkeeper’s gloves were in front of the stumps.pic.twitter.com/bYvAtQ2pQv — Mufaddal Vohra (@mufaddal_vohra) September 5, 2024 Know what the rules say about it According to Law 27.3 of the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC), the governing body of the game, the stumper must not stand in front of the line of the stumps, or have any part of their body or gloves beyond the stumps, when the bowler delivers the ball. If the wicketkeeper does so and it affects play, the umpire may rule it a no ball.
