So now a new name has been added to this list of former Indian wicketkeeper batsman Parthiv Patel. Parthiv has given a big statement during BGT regarding the importance of India’s number 3 batting order. Parthiv Patel gave a big statement Let us tell you that while discussing with Colors Cineplex recently, Parthiv Patel said – Whenever India has performed well in Australia, the performance of the number 3 batsman has been very important, the way Rahul Dravid batted in 2003-04. And Cheteshwar Pujara’s contribution in the last two series was huge, due to which India won there. Therefore number 3 becomes a very important batting order. Parthiv further said- Shubman Gill has shown that he has the ability to score runs in Australia, although all of his runs came as an opener. Rishabh Pant’s 89 runs are always talked about in the Gabba Test we won, but Shubman Gill also scored 91 runs as an opener. So he (Gill) knows that he can bat under pressure.

On the first day of the first Test between India and New Zealand, Anil Kumble told the broadcaster, ‘Shubman Gill is a talented player. He also has the ability. He has been to Australia before also. He scored a brilliant half-century in Brisbane and Shubman Gill knows the situation there very well. Gill can be seen playing an important role in Australia: Anil Kumble The former spinner further said, ‘I don’t want to let it change. If Rohit is unavailable in the first test then Shubman Gill can be sent to open. But there is also KL Rahul in the team who can be seen doing wicketkeeping along with opening. Rahul Dravid had done this earlier and now KL Rahul is also doing the same. Gill can be seen playing an important role in Australia. I only want him to be seen batting at number three. The best thing about Gill is that his performance against Australia has been excellent and he knows the conditions there very well.

“Don’t make Travis Head open in BGT…”- Ian Chappell warns Australia team
Travis Head (Image Credit- Twitter X) Former Australian cricketer Ian Chappell has warned the Australian team against using Travis Head as an opening batsman in the upcoming five-match Test series against India. The Kangaroos are set to face India in a five-match Test series later this year. The 2024-25 edition of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy is scheduled to begin on November 22 in Perth. The Australian team is looking for an opening partner for Usman Khawaja after David Warner announced his retirement from Test cricket earlier this year. In the last two Test series against West Indies and New Zealand, Steve Smith opened for the Pat Cummins-led side but did not perform as expected. There is a high possibility that he will be seen batting at number four in this series against India. Now in such a situation, it will be interesting to see who will open for the Australian team in the Test series against India in his absence. Ian Chappell has given his opinion on this issue. Ian Chappell expressed his opinion regarding Travis Head In his column for ESPN Cricinfo by ian chappell That said, “Travis Head’s opening in Test cricket is based on his unmatched success facing the new ball in both 50-over and T20 cricket. There is no doubt that Head, with his highly attacking style, is the ideal player to open in the two shorter formats of the game. However, Test cricket will be a completely different thing.” Ian Chappell further said, “To trouble Jasprit Bumrah, everyone is demanding that Head should open. However, Bumrah and to some extent Mohammed Siraj are unlikely to change their aggressive mindset.” Chappell wants some runs on the board before Travis Head comes to the crease. He said, “Clever R Ashwin will not be fazed by the ultra-aggressive attitude of the opponent. It could be argued that opening with Head means he is more stable facing Ashwin when there are some runs on the board. On the other hand, an astute opposition captain can use off-spinners with the new ball. There is also a compelling argument for using Head as an opening batsman in a Test match.”
