If Mumbai Indians decide to release Rohit Sharma, then he has a plan ready for that as well. Bangar believes that Rohit will be in great demand and if he comes in the auction, he will get a good price. Punjab Kings (PBKS) will try to build a good team through the mega-auction. Also, the team needs an experienced captain like Rohit Sharma. In such a situation, if Rohit Sharma comes into the auction pool, then Punjab Kings will want to buy him at any cost. Punjab Kings have not got much success in IPL so far. In such a situation, the team is eyeing to build a strong team for the upcoming season. Sanjay Bangar gave a big statement about Rohit Sharma In a recent podcast, Sanjay Bangar was asked what Punjab Kings’ plans are if Mumbai Indians release Rohit Sharma. Bangar replied that their decision will depend on the amount of money they have available at the time of the auction. He also stressed that Rohit Sharma could be bought at a “very high price” if he is available. When Bangar was asked about Rohit Sharma on the RAO Podcast YouTube channel, he said, ‘It all depends on whether we have money in our pockets or not. If Rohit comes in the auction, I am sure he will be bought at a high price.’ Let us tell you, Mumbai Indians won the title a record 5 times under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma, however despite this, the MI management handed over the captaincy to Hardik Pandya in place of Rohit Sharma before IPL 2024. However, his decision proved wrong and the team was the first to be out of the playoff race.
Virat Kohli should have spent a little more time as India Test captain: Sanjay Bangar
According to former India batting coach Sanjay Bangar, Virat Kohli should have remained the captain for some more time in Tests. Virat Kohli Test (Image Credit- Twitter) Indian team’s experienced batsman Virat Kohli is considered one of the best players in the world. Virat Kohli’s performance in international cricket has always been tremendous. Not only this, Kohli has also left his mark as a captain. Under the captaincy of Virat Kohli, India won the series in Australia. Not only this, India also won the Lord’s Test played in 2021. However, under the captaincy of Virat Kohli, the Indian team has not won a single ICC trophy. According to former India batting coach Sanjay Bangar, Virat Kohli should have remained the captain for a little longer in Tests. Let us tell you, in September 2021, Virat Kohli resigned from the post of captaincy of T20. Not only this, shortly after this, he withdrew his name from the post of captaincy of all formats of India. Speaking on The Rao Podcast, Sanjay Bangar said, ‘My personal belief is that Virat Kohli should have spent a little more time as Test captain. He should have captained India in a few more Test matches. I believe he had taken a decision on this matter long ago.’ The decision was not discussed in the right way: Virat Kohli Virat Kohli captained the Indian team in 68 Tests, out of which the team won 40 and their winning percentage was 58.82. Not only this, under the captaincy of Virat Kohli, the Indian fast bowlers also bowled lethally and maintained their pressure on the batsmen of the opposing team. Under his captaincy, the team confirmed its place in the final of the World Test Championship 2021. In 2022, Sourav Ganguly was the President of BCCI and he had said that the board had appealed to Kohli to captain the T20 team. He also said that Kohli had rejected this appeal and the selectors are not fully ready for two different captains for white ball cricket. However, later Virat Kohli made a big revelation about this. Virat Kohli had said, ‘Whatever was told that we had taken this decision together was not correct. When I decided to step down from the captaincy of the T20 team, I first went to the BCCI. I told them the reason behind it. I was not told at all that I have to step down from the post of T20 captaincy. I was completely sure about this. At that time I had also said that I can also captain the ODI and Test team, but the officials felt that I cannot take this responsibility. I had told my side and left the decision to them.’ Pakistan’s luck is bad, they have not won a Test match for 1294 days These 5 Indian cricketers are addicted to alcohol Shikhar Dhawan did this trick to win the ‘Golden Bat’ 5 big records of Shikhar Dhawan, in this case he is ahead of Kohli Shaheen Afridi became a father, his wife gave birth to…

Sanjay Bangar told Star Sports, ‘I think the team management has decided that Yashasvi will not play in the first match. If Yashasvi was in their plans, he would have definitely played in the warm-up match. It is clear that Virat Kohli will be seen opening.’ Virat Kohli’s stats have always been very good, no matter which order he plays in: Sanjay Bangar Sanjay Bangar further said, ‘The team has all the quality players. It is not at all that they cannot score runs against left-arm spinners. The players of the Indian team have scored a lot of runs against left-arm spinners. Not only this, the performance of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma has also been very good against them. The team can make its plan according to the situation. There is no doubt that Virat’s statistics are very good no matter in which order the team makes him bat.’ Let us tell you, India defeated Bangladesh by 60 runs in the warm-up match. All the players from the team performed very well. Now India has to play its first match of this important tournament against Ireland on June 5 at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York.
