Speaking at the post-match press conference, Axar Patel emphasized the positive impact of SKY’s constant encouragement on the bowlers. Axar said, “I played with Surya bhai (as captain) in the last Australia series. I know he is the captain of the bowlers. He (sort of) gives you a free hand to decide first. Whenever you hit a boundary, he comes and says it was a good ball. He keeps giving you inputs. As a player, I have a good relationship with him.” Axar recalled the five-match T20 series against Australia in India last year, which India won 4-1. He observed Yadav’s consistent leadership style. “As a captain, I also played with him in the last five matches (against Australia) and when I was playing today, I didn’t feel much change,” he said. In the first T20, Suryakumar Yadav also showed his strategic skills in the first three overs. Akshar explained how captain Surya’s strategic suggestions helped the team focus on taking wickets despite the opposition team scoring early runs.

Arshdeep Singh may get a chance to play in Border-Gavaskar, BCCI is preparing a special plan
The Indian selectors are considering picking left-arm pacer Arshdeep Singh in the Test squad, although he has only played for India in the limited-overs format so far. He impressed everyone during India’s T20 World Cup win and there are talks that he could be included in the Test squad for the Australia tour later this year. The Punjab and Punjab Kings fast bowler was the highest wicket-taker in the recent tournament along with Afghanistan fast bowler Fazalhaq Farooqi. Both the bowlers took 17-17 wickets in that tournament. Now it is believed that after his brilliant performance in the white ball, he may get promoted to red ball cricket. Arshdeep Singh may get a chance in the upcoming Test series against Australia The selectors are very impressed with Arshdeep’s ability to swing the ball in limited overs cricket, so he can prove to be very effective on the Australia tour. A source told the Times of India, “Arshdeep has performed impressively in white ball cricket for India. He may be asked to play some red ball matches starting with the Duleep Trophy from September 5 to increase his chances of selection for the Australia tour. There is every possibility that he can prove to be a trump card for India along with (Jasprit) Bumrah in Australia.” The source further added that, “In fact, the selectors are keen to have the option of another left-arm pacer at least in the white-ball squad, which is why Khaleel Ahmed toured Zimbabwe and has been selected for both the ODIs and T20Is in Sri Lanka.” Let us tell you, the Indian team will tour Australia at the end of this year. For the first time on this tour, a 5 match Border Gavaskar Test series will be played between India and Australia.

A total of 8 teams will participate in this tournament. There is no clarity on whether the Indian team will go to Pakistan for this Champions Trophy or not. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has made it clear that the government will decide on playing in Pakistan. The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has been trying to convince the BCCI for a long time. However, PCB has now given up this tension and has adopted a new strategy. PCB has handed over the task of convincing India to come to Pakistan for the Champions Trophy to the International Cricket Council (ICC). Let us tell you that in the Asia Cup held last year under the hosting of PCB, India played all its matches in Sri Lanka on the basis of ‘hybrid model’. However, there is no clarity on whether the ‘hybrid model’ will be adopted in the Champions Trophy or not. Although the Champions Trophy budget was approved at the recent ICC meeting in Colombo, the schedule and format were not discussed.

(Photo Source: Getty Images) Former India fast bowler and Gujarat Titans head coach Ashish Nehra said that he is not surprised by the Indian team management’s decision not to appoint Hardik Pandya as the new T20 captain. Nehra said that he understands the thinking of chief selector Ajit Agarkar and newly appointed coach Gautam Gambhir in choosing Suryakumar Yadav as the new T20 captain. Hardik Pandya, who will lead India in T20 in 2023, was Rohit Sharma’s deputy in the victorious World Cup campaign in the USA and West Indies in June. While Hardik was expected to replace Rohit as T20 captain, later after Rohit’s retirement from T20, the BCCI announced Suryakumar as the new T20 captain for the upcoming three-match series in Sri Lanka. Ashish Nehra is not surprised by Hardik Pandya not being made captain Regarding Hardik not being made the captain, Ashish Nehra said, “No, I am not surprised. When it comes to cricket, such things keep happening. Yes, Hardik Pandya was the vice-captain in the World Cup, but at the same time, a new coach has also come. Every coach and every captain has different ideas. At this time, his (Gambhir’s) ideas are in the same direction.” The former Indian fast bowler further said, “I think Ajit Agarkar and Gautam Gambhir have made it clear, it is good. He is a format game There have been fewer ODIs game Hardik Pandya will continue to be a very important player for Indian cricket in white-ball cricket. When you have him, you can have 4 fast bowlers. He brings a different balance to the team and keep in mind, there is no more dominant player in international cricket. Not just Hardik Pandya, but when you have so many matches, there are changes. Even Rishabh Pant has captained, KL Rahul has also captained.
“Suryakumar Yadav will not play in Champions Trophy 2025”- Aakash Chopra made a big prediction
Suryakumar Yadav has not been able to perform as expected in ODI cricket so far. Suryakumar Yadav and Aakash Chopra. (Image Source: BCCI/X) Suryakumar Yadav, one of the world’s most dangerous batsmen in T20 cricket, has not yet been able to perform as expected in ODI cricket. The ICC Champions Trophy is to be held in February and March next year. The Champions Trophy will be played in ODI format. Former Indian cricketer and famous commentator Aakash Chopra has made a big prediction about Suryakumar Yadav. Chopra believes that T20 batsman Suryakumar Yadav will not play in the Champions Trophy because he is not fitting into the ODI team. Let us tell you that BCCI has recently appointed Suryakumar as the captain of the Indian T20 team. He beat Hardik Pandya in the race for captaincy. However, Surya did not get a place in the ODI squad against Sri Lanka. Aakash Chopra made a big prediction about Suryakumar Yadav When Chief Selector Ajit Agarkar was asked about this in the press conference, he said in clear words that Surya will remain a part of the T20 setup for now. Aakash Chopra said on his YouTube channel, “Suryakumar Yadav was part of the team that reached the ODI World Cup 2023 final. He was also in the team that played the T20 World Cup 2024 final. He took a wonderful catch of David Miller. However, Surya is no longer a part of the ODI team. In such a situation, when questions were asked about Surya, it was said that he is a great and special player but will be seen playing only in T20 Internationals. His name was not considered in ODIs. If his name is not being discussed and the Champions Trophy is about to come. So you can assume that Suryakumar will not be seen in the Champions Trophy. The former cricketer said that Shubman Gill is sure to play in the Champions Trophy. Chopra said, “Gill will be seen in the Champions Trophy. He (Agkar) said that Gill is a player of all three formats. Gautam Gambhir (head coach) also believes that if a player of all three formats is found then there is nothing wrong. Gill’s captaincy has also been seen. Whatever captaincy he has done, it has been liked. Therefore, he has also been made the vice-captain.
