Mohammed Shami. (Photo Source: Twitter) Team India’s fast bowler Mohammed Shami may remain out of the first two Tests of the five-match series against England starting from January 25. He recently revealed that he played with pain during the ODI World Cup 2023, after which he was advised to take a break from the game. Currently, he is recovering from an ankle injury, which also ruled him out of the two-match Test series against South Africa. According to reports, the 33-year-old player has not started bowling in the nets yet. BCCI officials are hopeful that the fast bowler will undergo his fitness test at the NCA before making a place in the Test team. If he passes the test, Shami will join the team in Rajkot for the third Test. Will not be able to play the first two test matches against England – BCCI official A BCCI source was quoted by the Indian Express as saying, “Shami has not even started bowling yet, he will have to go to NCA to prove his fitness. It is difficult for him to play in the first two Tests against England. For the first two Test matches against England, Prasidh Krishna or Mukesh Kumar can be included in the playing eleven in place of Shami. In the second Test against the Proteas at Newlands, Cape Town, Kumar performed well with the ball, while Prasidh was decent. Captain Rohit Sharma was not happy with his performance in the first Test of the series in Centurion. Except Shami, all other Test cricketers are fit for the blockbuster series against England. The team is set to reunite in Hyderabad after the series against Afghanistan. The T2oI series against Afghanistan will end on January 17.

If Rohit Sharma says I am available, how will you remove him- K Srikkanth

Former Team India cricketer K Srikkanth Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are expected to play in the upcoming T20 World Cup, which is scheduled to start from June 1. Let us tell you that Rohit and Virat have not played a single match in this format since the T-20 World Cup semi-finals. But he has been recalled to the team for the upcoming three-match series against Afghanistan. Srikanth said that if Rohit is available for selection then the team management cannot exclude him. He said the 36-year-old player is sad after losing to Australia in the ODI World Cup final and would like to retire with the T20 World Cup, which will be held in West Indies and USA. Srikkanth also said that, Virat Kohli will definitely feature in the tournament as he is in great form. K Srikkanth’s big statement regarding Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli In a video on his YouTube channel, Srikkanth said, “Virat Kohli is sure. He is in great form. Rohit Sharma is probably confident about how he scored in the World Cup. He will regroup and try to perform well in the IPL. If Rohit Sharma says I am available, you cannot say that you will drop him. At the end of the day, Rohit Sharma is also hurt by the fact that he has lost a World Cup. He would like to retire at least with the World Cup in hand. He was there in the 2007 World Cup. He would like to do something similar, win the World Cup and then retire. Virat Kohli, considered one of the greatest players of all time, has not yet won the T20 World Cup. He was the top run-scorer in the last edition of the T20 World Cup and is in ‘great form’ at the moment. Regarding him, Srikant had said that, “Virat Kohli would definitely like to win the T20 World Cup. Apart from this, the T20 World Cup took place only 13 months ago last year. Virat Kohli was in extraordinary form. If they say they’re available, I don’t think you can skip them.

Irfan Pathan gave a befitting reply to the teams criticizing the turning pitch, said – Instead of crying about the pitch from now on….

A total of 23 wickets fell on the first day in the Cape Town Test match. Irfan Pathan. (Photo Source: CricTracker) Former Team India all-rounder Irfan Pathan asked his batsmen to strengthen their game against spin-bowling instead of complaining about rank-turners when foreign teams tour India for Test series. Due to India’s dominance on the home ground, there has been a lot of commotion about Indian pitches in recent times. However, Pathan suggested that touring teams should avoid blaming the conditions for their poor performances. Cricketer-turned-commentator Pathan made this statement after the end of the first day’s play (Wednesday, January 3) of the ongoing Cape Town Test between India and South Africa. The batsmen had to struggle to score runs on this pitch, due to which a total of 23 wickets fell on the first day itself. Irfan Pathan’s tweet after seeing the Cape Town pitch Regarding the Cape Town pitch, Irfan Pathan wrote on his X account, “When foreign cricketers come to India on turning pitches, they should not complain. This is a skill they need to improve on!” When overseas cricketers come to India on turning pitches they shouldn’t complain. It’s a skill they need to improve! — Irfan Pathan (@IrfanPathan) January 4, 2024 Nine wickets fell in the first session of the first day in the ongoing second Test between India and South Africa. The Proteas won the toss and decided to bat first. South Africa’s decision to bat first proved wrong. South Africa’s first innings was all out for just 55 runs, the biggest contribution in this was from Mohammed Siraj. He took 6 wickets in the first innings. After this, the Indian team was also all out for 153 runs in the first innings. Most wickets fallen in one day of a test match 27 wickets – ENG vs AUS, Lord’s, 1888 (Day 2) 25 wickets – AUS vs ENG, Melbourne, 1902 (Day 1) 24 wickets – ENG vs AUS, The Oval, 1896 (Day 2) 24 wickets – IND vs AFG, Bengaluru, 2018 (Day 2) 23 wickets – SA vs AUS, Cape Town, 2011 (Day 2) 23 wickets – SA vs IND, Cape Town, 2024 (Day 1) Also read: South Africa team gave guard of honor to Dean Elgar in SA vs IND second test

“India is an overrated team in Test and T-20” – Srikanth created a sensation with his statement.

Indian Test Team. (Photo Source: SUJIT JAISWAL/AFP, Sydney Seshibedi – Gallo Images/Getty Images) After having a forgettable time on the cricket pitch in 2023, Team India will be looking to make a fresh start in the new year. They face South Africa in the second Test today on Wednesday, January 03 at Newlands, Cape Town. The Rohit Sharma-led side suffered a defeat by an innings and 32 runs in the opening game in Centurion and are now looking for a win to level the series. Let us tell you that India is the number one ranked Test team with 118 rating. However, they have failed to win consecutive World Test Championship finals. Former India cricketer Krishnamachari Group is also not very happy with India’s Test performance and has called them an ‘overrated team’. He believes that when Virat was the captain, the team was doing well in Test cricket for 2-3 years. K Srikanth called India an overrated team in Test and T-20. Srikanth said on his YouTube channel, “We are overrated in Test cricket. I think it was the 2-3 year phase…when Virat Kohli was the captain of the team, we were excellent. We dominated in England, we fought hard in South Africa, we won in Australia. We had a good phase for 2-4 years.” Srikanth further said, ‘We have to forget the ICC rankings. We’re always number 1-2, 1-2. It is a mix of overrated cricketers and cricketers who have not performed to their potential. Or some players like Kuldeep (Yadav) who have not got enough opportunities. If you want to be the best team, you must be able to become a giant on home grounds. This is what we did when Rishabh Pant was firing. Talking about India’s performance in limited overs cricket, the former cricketer said that ‘India is more overrated in T20 cricket. ODI cricket, we are a great team. What happens in the semi-finals and finals in ODI is a one-time match. It is a factor of luck, a lot depends on luck in these matches.

Sanjay Manjrekar wants to see this bowler playing in the second test in place of Prasidh Krishna

Former cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar has demanded the inclusion of fast bowler Mukesh Kumar in the Indian team in the second Test match against South Africa at Newlands, Cape Town. Mukesh, who made his Test debut last year against West Indies at the Queen’s Park Oval in Port of Spain, Trinidad, managed to take one wicket there. Manjrekar advised not to include Shardul Thakur and Prasidh Krishna together in the playing XI and also stressed on making a balanced combination. Highlighting Mukesh’s ability to adapt to challenging situations and suggesting strategic changes. 58-year-old Manjrekar said that fast bowler Mukesh Kumar can prove to be important for Team India in the upcoming match. Mukesh Kumar should get a chance in the second test match- Sanjay Manjrekar Sanjay Manjrekar was quoted as saying by ESPNcricinfo, “From what we have seen in the first Test, I do not expect Shardul Thakur and Prasidh Krishna to play together in the second Test. There will definitely be a change, if Ravindra Jadeja is fit then it will strengthen our batting. So, if Mukesh Kumar is bowling well in the nets, he can be brought in. He is more suitable for these circumstances.” India are trailing 0-1 in the series after an innings defeat in the opening Test at the SuperSport Park in Centurion. Manjrekar suggested that, despite the failure in the first Test, captain Rohit Sharma and coach Rahul Dravid could be seen supporting Yashasvi Jaiswal. Expressing hope of a better pitch in Cape Town, this experienced player has expressed hope of an exciting match in the upcoming match. Sanjay Manjrekar further said, “Since it is a two-match series, you are sometimes forced to make some changes. However, I do not think India will make any major changes in their batting lineup. Rohit Sharma and Rahul Dravid must have seen how Yashasvi Jaiswal played and they will continue to support him. When it comes to batting you can’t change things with selection. You can just hope that the pitch is a little easier to bat on.” Also read: David Warner’s baggy green cap not found, forced to play Sydney Test without it
