After this, the first ODI between India and Sri Lanka ended in a tie. India has not made any changes in its playing XI in the second ODI. If India has to win this match, then they will have to bowl out the hosts as soon as possible. 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?

“We cannot follow England’s “Bazball”, we have played only 2 matches…” – Bangladeshi player Zakir Hasan made a big statement
England has a chance to adopt ‘Buzzball’ cricket because they play four matches in a single series. So they have a chance to do something new – Zakir Hasan Zakir Hasan (Photo Source: X/Twitter) Bangladesh cricket team is going to tour India in September for a two-match Test series. Before this tour, the team’s opening batsman Zakir Hasan has made a big statement about the team’s performance in Tests. Let us tell you, Bangladesh’s performance in ICC tournaments has been very disappointing, and the team is not showing anything special in Tests either. Last year, the team played only four Test matches, out of which it won one and lost three. The players have been facing a lot of criticism due to poor batting in Tests. We play two matches in a series- Zakir Hasan Bangladesh opener Zakir Hasan says that they cannot follow England’s ‘Bazball’ approach, because the English team plays four to five matches in a Test series. And Bangladesh plays only two matches in a series. Hasan has called it a matter of concern. Talking to Cricbuzz, Zakir Hasan said, As a cricketer, it matters more to me how I help the team with my performance than playing beautiful shots. As you said about playing for a long time in Tests, England may play one way. But if you analyze, the way other teams play Tests around the world, batsmen take time to score runs. See, England have a chance to adopt ‘Buzzball’ cricket because they play four matches in a single series. So they have a chance to do something new. Zakir Hasan further said, We don’t have a chance, we play two matches in a series and then we play after one, two or three months. So I think we have less chance than them (England) to implement it in international matches. But if you see the way cricket is being played overall, if we play cricket in that manner then it will be good for us.

After being ruled out of The Hundred 2024, Jos Buttler said through a story from his official Instagram account – Sad to be out of The Hundred this year. Best of luck to Manchester Originals for the remainder of the tournament. Working hard to be 100 percent fit as soon as possible.

SL vs IND: India made these two big mistakes in the first ODI, if the same mistake happens again in the next match then it may have to lose the series
The second ODI match between India and Sri Lanka will be played on August 4. SL vs IND (Photo Source: Getty Images) The first match of the ODI series between Sri Lanka and India (SL vs IND) ended in a tie. The hosts batted first and scored 230 runs for the loss of 8 wickets. In response, Team India was all out for 230 runs in 47.5 overs while chasing the target. Charith Aslanka saved the match from going into India’s bag by dismissing Shivam Dubey and Arshdeep Singh in the 48th over. This match was nothing less than a nightmare for Rohit Sharma and company, as the team could not register a win despite being in control in both the innings. Let us tell you about the two mistakes due to which India had to face defeat, and also tell you about a masterstroke that the team did right during the first ODI. SL vs IND: Masterstroke – Rohit Sharma’s batting in the powerplay Indian captain Rohit Sharma was once again seen giving the team a stormy start. Rohit played his shots beautifully against both pace and spinner bowlers in the powerplay. Shubman Gill, batting from the other end, did not look anything special. There was a partnership of 75 runs between the two for the first wicket. Shubman Gill scored 16 runs in 35 balls, while Rohit Sharma played an innings of 58 runs in 47 balls with the help of 7 fours and 3 sixes. SL vs IND: India made these two mistakes during the first ODI match- 1. Shivam Dubey gave more strike to Mohammad Siraj When Mohammed Siraj came to bat, India needed 20 runs to win, and more than five overs were left. Shivam Dubey was completely set and it seemed that the team could easily win this game. Dubey and Siraj played 19 balls in their partnership, out of these balls, Siraj played 11 balls. Shivam Dubey is a good player of spin, he could have made things easier for the team by coming forward and playing more balls in this partnership, but he did not do anything like that. 2. Arshdeep Singh’s wrong shot When Arshdeep Singh came to bat, the team needed 1 run to win and had one wicket in hand. Arshdeep tried to play a slog-sweep shot, which was not the right shot against an off-spinner. Arshdeep could have easily taken a run by hitting the ball on any side of the ground, but he did not show his understanding and India had to face defeat.
