SRH owner Kavya Maran made this demand in the meeting of BCCI and Owners According to a Cricbuzz report, SRH owner Kavya Maran has said, “It takes a lot of time to build a team and as discussed, grooming young players also takes a lot of time and investment. It took Abhishek Sharma 3 years to bring stability in his performance. You will agree that other teams have many such examples. She prefers mini auctions every year instead of mega auctions. Kavya Maran further said, “After being bought in the auction, if a player does not play the entire season for any reason other than injury, he should be banned. The franchise puts a lot of effort in the auction, if a player goes for a low amount and he does not come. So it affects the team combination.” Along with this, SRH owner has demanded to remove the restriction on the number of foreign players, because last time BCCI allowed to retain maximum 2 foreign players only, since every team is formed in different way which includes Indian players, foreign players and uncapped players.

Shaheen Afridi (Image Credit- Twitter X) While talking to the media in Karachi, Pakistan’s fast bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi said that at this time his priority is to win matches for Pakistan rather than wanting to become the captain. Actually Shaheen Afridi was appointed Pakistan’s T20I captain after Babar Azam left the captaincy. Meanwhile, Afridi has stressed that captaincy is not in my hands, performing well is in my hands. Shaheen Afridi gave a big statement regarding the captaincy controversy (Shaheen Afridi Captaincy) When Shaheen Afridi was asked about captaincy on Khel Shell, he said, ‘For me, Pakistan comes first, then my team and then lastly I myself. I don’t think much about the past, my job is to stay in the present. If your present is good, then you can be fully prepared for the future. Captaincy is not in my hands. Shaheen further said, ‘I have never played cricket for captaincy in my career, I honestly just want to play for Pakistan, which I will do.’ Under Afridi’s captaincy, Pakistan lost the series against New Zealand 1-4. At the same time, a few months before the 2024 T20 World Cup, the captaincy was taken away from Shaheen and given back to Babar. Under Babar’s captaincy, the Pakistan team could not progress beyond the league round. There were many reports regarding the T20 World Cup, which claimed that the Pakistan team was divided into factions. There was a lot of discord between Shaheen and captain Babar.

So, according to ESPN Cricinfo’s reports on this issue, a source closely associated with the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) says that the biggest challenge for the Indian team’s head coach Gambhir will be to manage the superstars, which include big names like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and Jaspreet Bumrah. Managing these players is not going to be easy for Gambhir. BCCI source gave a big statement Let us tell you that a BCCI source said about Gautam Gambhir- Managing these players is not an easy task. It is not like a franchise where you are the boss and you have your terms and conditions. That will not work here. You will have to pick up the phone in the dressing room of the Indian cricket team, talk to the players, in which Rahul Dravid was quite adept. The source further said- When Dravid joined this system, he found it a different kind of challenge, because the cricket scenario has changed a lot since his retirement. Every player is a millionaire and captains their respective franchise teams. So, this is going to be a big challenge for Gambhir. Also, according to the report, Gautam Gambhir has talked to veteran all-rounder Hardik Pandya and told him what he wants from him. For this, Gambhir has also requested the selectors committee that the all-rounder should be available for selection at all times.

So, during IPL 2023, there was a heated argument between the two players, when Gambhir was the mentor of the Lucknow Super Giants team. However, during IPL 2024, everything seemed to be settled between the two players, and both were seen laughing and joking a lot on the field. On the other hand, recently Gautam Gambhir has become the new head coach of Team India after the T20 World Cup 2024. After this, Gambhir and Virat Kohli will have to work in the same dressing room. So now a big statement of former New Zealand cricketer Scott Styris has come out regarding this matter. Scott Styris gave a big statement Let us tell you that recently, quoting India Today, Scott Styris said about the fight between the two – Yes, this is a really good question. I think we have to wait and see. I don’t think anyone can sit here and say that it will work so well or it won’t work. Styris further said, “I think both the players will just try to speak a little less and observe how things are working with the team, in terms of managing Virat Kohli.” Gautam will be looking to Virat Kohli to lead all the young players. We don’t know about that relationship right now how it will be, but there are two different players in the team who have two different strengths in the group.

I couldn’t say anything for the first 2 seconds because the angle was like that. The ball was not visible properly because of the stands. For the first 2 seconds, it seemed like the ball was going for a six because the wind direction was also like that. Suryakumar Yadav took an unbelievable catch: Jatin Sapru Jatin Sapru further said, ‘However, a few seconds later I saw from the corner of my eye that someone was running from long off.
