They have class in the form of Ibrahim Zadran and Rahmat Shah, but there is no one else to follow. That’s why I’m excited to see what youngsters Riaz Hassan and Bahir Shah have to offer. They are both promising and have averages over 55 in first class. Signs of a strong future for India were seen in the 2000s when Yuvraj Singh and Mohammad Kaif came up from the Under 19s to the team. That’s why these 2 players could give Afghanistan a peak at what it can achieve over the next decade. See this post of Ashwin This one off Test will be fun to watch. We know Afghanistan produce insane talent but the one area of solidity and stability they need is from their batting department.

England got a big shock, Mark Wood will not play cricket this year, you will be shocked to know the reason
Mark Wood (Image Credit- Twitter X) England’s fastest bowler Mark Wood has been ruled out for the rest of 2024 due to a bone injury in his right elbow. He will not be able to be a part of the upcoming Test series against Pakistan and New Zealand. Against Sri Lanka Wood was ruled out of the ongoing Sri Lanka series as a precaution after suffering a right thigh strain while bowling during the first Test at Old Trafford. Wood suffered a right thigh injury in the first Test against Sri Lanka. He had to be ruled out of the Sri Lanka series due to thigh trouble. After this, the bowler felt discomfort in the elbow joint. When Wood underwent a routine elbow scan, he learned that it would take several months to fully recover. However, it will not be easy for England to fill Wood’s place. The 37-year-old pacer has played 37 Tests, 55 ODIs and 34 T20 Internationals for England, taking 119, 77 and 77 wickets respectively. The England Cricket Board said in a statement that Wood felt increasing stiffness and discomfort in his elbow during the Test series against the West Indies in early summer. Wood is expected to return early next year. Meanwhile, Wood has also reacted to being out of the England team for a long time. He wrote on Instagram that there is very bad news. During a routine examination of an already troublesome elbow, I was shocked to learn that I have a bone stress in my right elbow. After a minor groin injury at Old Trafford (first Test), I and the medical team felt it was the right time to get my elbow examined as it was causing some trouble. He further said, I will not be able to play for the rest of this year as I need time to rest and prepare myself. I sincerely hope that I will be able to make a comeback in early 2025 and perform well. I will work hard behind the scenes. I am very proud to represent my country and there can be no better feeling than this.
