“We have to bring such batsmen in the team who….”- Big statement by head coach after Afghanistan’s exit
We need to bring in more batsmen who can score runs by being consistent like openers and also give opportunities in the game – Jonathan Trott Jonathan Trott (Photo Source: X/Twitter) T20 World Cup 2024: Afghanistan has been eliminated from the tournament after losing the semi-final against South Africa. After this defeat, Rashid Khan and company’s dream of playing their first World Cup final has been shattered. Afghanistan has impressed everyone with its performance in the ongoing tournament. The team defeated teams like New Zealand and Australia, which would be wrong to call an upset. Meanwhile, after Afghanistan’s exit, the team’s head coach has given a big statement. Jonathan Trott says that the team will learn a lot from this World Cup. He has also expressed his displeasure over the team’s batting. The middle order has disappointed – Jonathan Trott In the semi-final match against South Africa, the team’s batting disappointed a lot. The team was all out for just 56 runs in 11.5 overs. Talking to ICC about the team’s batting, head coach Jonathan Trott said, I’m sure people will learn from this experience, we’ve got a better tournament than the last 50-over World Cup in November and it’s just about going step by step and hopefully we’ll learn from today. South Africa bowled really well and when they saw how the pitch behaved they knew how to bowl in the conditions and I think that’s bad because we haven’t really fired, the middle order batsmen haven’t fired enough in this World Cup. We have become more dependent on Gurbaz and Zadran- Head Coach The team has won every match in which the team’s openers Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Ibrahim Zadran have given a good start. But this did not happen against South Africa, which led to the defeat. The head coach says that the team has become too dependent on Gurbaz and Zadran. There is a need to bring such batsmen in the team, who can score runs consistently like openers. We have perhaps become a little too dependent on Gurbaz and Ibrahim to score runs. Nobody else has scored runs. And we have to find the reason for this, we need to bring in more batsmen who can score runs by being consistent like openers and also give opportunities in the game. So this is our big project going forward.

T20 World Cup 2024: If I were the coach, I would ask the specialist batsmen of the Indian team…: Irfan Pathan gave a surprising statement
According to Irfan Pathan, there are many all-rounders who performed very well for the Indian team in the T20 World Cup 2007 and the ODI World Cup 2011. Irfan Pathan. (Photo Source: Twitter) Former cricketer Irfan Pathan believes that the specialist batsmen of the Indian team should practice throwing some balls in the nets for the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. According to him, specialist batsmen may have to bowl in this tournament. According to Irfan Pathan, there are many all-rounders who performed very well for the Indian team in the T20 World Cup 2007 and the ODI World Cup 2011. He named Sachin Tendulkar, Yuvraj Singh and Suresh Raina as examples. Irfan Pathan told Star Sports, ‘If I were a coach, I would have definitely made this rule that if you are a batsman, you should also bowl a bit along with batting. You cannot leave the nets without bowling.’ The former player further said, ‘None of the batsmen can bowl. Neither Rohit Sharma, nor Virat Kohli nor Suryakumar Yadav. And this is where we get stuck. If even one of them could bowl, it would be a big thing for the team combination. You can take the example of England. Moeen Ali, Liam Livingstone and Will Jacks can also bowl. Apart from this, they also have four to five important bowlers.’ Irfan Pathan gave important advice to the Indian team Irfan Pathan further said, ‘We can make two combinations. 6 bowlers in which you can play Akshar Patel. Apart from this, you can go with four main bowlers and expect Shivam Dubey and Hardik Pandya to bowl. There is another player whom you can play. Yashasvi Jaiswal is bowling continuously in the nets but he has not done so in the match yet. In the T20 World Cup, you can expect one over from him. If Yashasvi bowls one over and Hardik Pandya bowls three overs, this problem will be solved. 5 Australian players who scored half-century in their debut IPL match IPL 2024: These 11 foreign players took crores of rupees but flopped IPL 2024: 5 players who hit the most sixes in the 19th and 20th overs of IPL 5 fastest bowlers in IPL history Who are the head coaches of all 10 teams in IPL 2024?
