However, there are some players who are not able to participate in this tournament because they have to participate in bilateral series on behalf of their country. According to Arun Dhumal, a lot of changes may be seen in the Women’s Premier League tournament in the future. Actually, Heather Knight of Royal Challengers Bangalore and Lauren Bell of UP Warriors had to prepare for England’s upcoming series against New Zealand and that is why both of them are not participating in the Women’s Premier League season. This is the reason why big decisions can be taken regarding the Women’s Premier League. Arun Dhumal told Sportsstar, ‘It all depends on which window we get. Five teams participate in it and it is not so easy to give equal opportunity to all the teams regarding their home and away matches. That’s why we decided on two venues. It is also a neutral venue for many teams and fans can also cheer loudly for their team. It was great to see that the fans of RCB and Delhi Capitals in Bengaluru were cheering loudly for their respective teams in Delhi. We are making full preparations to make Women’s Premier League the best league: Arun Dhumal Arun Dhumal further said, ‘Whatever window we get, we will take decisions regarding women’s cricket.

Special Opinion: Won the series 4-1 but still some questions troubled me, batsmen are getting defeated in front of spinners at home.
In recent times, Team India’s batsmen have been seen struggling against the spinners. Virat Kohli (Photo Source: X/Twitter) The Indian team won the five-match Test series against England by 4-1. By winning this Test series, the Indian team strengthened its claim for the first place in the World Test Championship. After playing the World Test Championship final twice in a row, Team India has staked its claim to play the Test Championship final this time too. The Indian team may have won this series by 4-1, but in this Test series and the Test series played at home in the last few years, one shortcoming of the Indian team has been sharply exposed. Such a deficiency has been exposed in which the Indian team once had expertise. In the last few years, the Indian team has proved to be poor in playing spin. The Indian team is now facing problems in playing spin in India itself. Whereas earlier this was the mantra of victory for the Indian team. He used to prepare spin tracks against foreign teams and defeat them. Now it has happened that when foreign teams tour India, they trouble the Indian team by including two-three good spinners. After coming here, even their average bowlers become great bowlers. Whereas in the past, Indian teams have batted brilliantly on spin-friendly pitches in domestic and subcontinental conditions. However, at present the Indian team seems to be struggling completely in facing spin. The bowling of the Indian team has been excellent in India since the beginning. Now it has become stronger while there has been a decline in the art of playing spin in batting. The Indian team which once used to trouble the opponents with its spin bowling in the 70s. At the same time, in today’s time our batsmen get troubled. In the 70s, there was the famous quartet of Eerappalli Prasanna, BS Chandrasekhar, Venkat Raghavan and Bishan Singh Bedi, who used to dominate against foreign teams on Indian pitches. These people had created so much fear in the minds of the foreign batsmen that the teams touring India started practicing spin a month in advance, but still their quartet did not give the batsmen a chance to do anything special. After that, from 1980 to 2010, the Indian team had such batsmen who left their mark not only in India but also abroad. There were some batsmen who were adept at playing spin at home and were also adept at playing swing and pace if they toured abroad. During that time, many such great spinners also came to India, who left their mark in the whole world but bowed down before the Indian batsmen. Many such greats came from Shane Warne to Muttiah Muralitharan, but Indian batsmen faced those great spinners boldly and also showed the world the art of playing spin. What happened in the recent past that what was our strength has become our weakness. Indian players who have grown up playing on spin-friendly pitches are not able to face spin effectively today.

IND vs ENG: “Rohit is a player who likes to take challenges”- Saba Karim
Rohit Sharma (Pic Source-X) Former Indian wicketkeeper batsman Saba Karim has praised Rohit Sharma for standing strong in adverse circumstances in the ongoing Test series against England. Team India did not have some big players for this series. Players like KL Rahul, Mohammed Shami are out due to injury, while Virat withdrew his name from the series citing personal reasons. In the absence of senior players, there was a doubt in everyone’s mind as to how Team India would perform during this series. But the way Rohit Sharma has performed in this series as a captain and player is praiseworthy. Rohit has already ensured that the Men in Blue’s dominant winning streak continues on home soil after three consecutive wins in the five-match series. Rohit Sharma has also performed brilliantly as a batsman in this series, he has scored two centuries so far. The first century of this came in a difficult situation after the failure of the top order in Rajkot. Although India has been put under pressure by the visiting England team in each of the four Test matches, under Rohit’s captaincy the team has made a brilliant comeback even in pressure situations. Saba Karim gave a big statement regarding Rohit’s performance Regarding Rohit’s performance, Saba Karim, while talking to Geo Cinema, said, “You have seen that in Rajkot, the team was in a difficult situation and he got out after scoring 100 runs. He is someone who enjoys challenges. It’s something as an experienced player, you thrive in these types of situations.” The Indian captain took full advantage of his start in the first innings of the fifth Test in Dharamsala. The captain completed his 12th Test century. This is his second century against England in Tests. Rohit was bowled by Stokes after scoring 103 runs.
