So now before the start of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia at home, the player has given a big statement. Marsh says that whenever I come out to bat, I am troubling myself like any other person. It is noteworthy that in the beginning of his Test career, Marsh was not able to perform as per expectations. The 33-year-old all-rounder made his Test debut for Australia in 2014, but due to his lack of consistent performance, he was soon dropped from the team. After the Sandpapergate scandal, he not only returned to the team, but was also made the vice-captain of the Test team. After this, he was again dropped from the Test team within a year. However, after this, Marsh has been successful in playing white ball cricket continuously for Australia and is currently the captain of the Australian T20 team. Mitchell Marsh gave a big statement Let us tell you that recently in a discussion with Fox Cricket before BGT, Mitchell Marsh said – The truth is that I am a human being and whenever I come out to bat, I treat myself like any other person. I am disturbing you. I’ve worked really hard on the mental side of my game so I can go out there and get straight into my pre-ball routine, no matter how nervous I am. Marsh further said- For me, it is all about my preparation. If I prepare well, go into a game or an innings really confident, then if I fail, I can look at myself in the mirror and say I really did everything I could. Could do.

The first test match will be played between India and Australia from 22nd November. Sourav Ganguly, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. (Image Source: Getty Images) Team India’s former veteran captain and player Sourav Ganguly has made a big revelation about Rohit Sharma. Ganguly revealed that when Virat Kohli decided to step down from the captaincy role after the series against South Africa in January 2022, Rohit Sharma was not ready to become the Test captain considering his workload. However, Ganguly convinced Rohit for this and he led Team India in all three formats. Now after retiring from T20, he is the captain of the ODI and Test teams, while Suryakumar Yadav is leading Team India in the shortest format of cricket. The former Indian captain said that he had to convince Rohit to take over the captaincy in the longer format and he is not surprised by what Rohit has achieved so far. Sourav Ganguly made a big revelation about Rohit Sharma Sourav Ganguly was quoted as saying by RevSportz, “He did not become the captain because he was captaining in other formats. Therefore he had a lot of workload. I don’t believe in workload. India’s Test captain will remain the Test captain. I told him not to end his career without becoming a Test captain, I am not surprised by what he has achieved.” Team India is currently on Australia tour where they have to play 5-match Border Gavaskar Test series against the hosts. There is doubt over the availability of captain Rohit Sharma in the first match of this series. Actually, Rohit has recently become a father for the second time. For this reason he did not leave for Australia with the Indian squad. Regarding this, Ganguly says that if he had been in Rohit’s place, he would have gone to Australia for the Perth Test. He also believes that the upcoming series will be 37-year-old Rohit’s last tour in Australia. Ganguly said, “I hope that Rohit Sharma will leave soon, because the team needs leadership. I believe his wife gave birth to a son last night, so I’m sure he will be gone from the team. He should go as soon as possible and if I were in his place, he would be playing the Perth Test.”

Meanwhile, the famous astrologer has made a big prediction regarding King Kohli. Astrologer Greenstone Lobo studied Virat’s horoscope and predicted that the star batsman is going to continue his illustrious career till at least 2027. Virat Kohli can overtake Gavaskar-Rahul Dravid Astrologer Greenstone Lobo’s analysis shows an optimistic picture for Virat Kohli’s future, adding that influential planetary positions in his horoscope will propel him to stronger performances. The astrologer also pointed out that, it may be challenging to break Sachin Tendulkar’s record of 49 Test centuries, but Kohli can still surpass the records of legends like Sunil Gavaskar and Rahul Dravid. Greenstone Lobo while talking on StarPlay: Cricket & Astrology said, Virat Kohli’s best phase is yet to come. Does this mean that Kohli will break Sachin Tendulkar’s record? Probably not. His record of more than 49 (51) Test centuries is very high. So perhaps it will be difficult for him to achieve this, but then Virat Kohli can definitely surpass Sunil Gavaskar and Rahul Dravid. He is not really worried about numbers, his focus is on winning and that is exactly what he is going to do for India.” Virat Kohli will perform well in Australia Astrologer Greenstone Lobo is confident that Virat Kohli’s luck will change as planets like Uranus and Neptune are in the right position in his horoscope. Lobo’s last prediction was about Kohli’s career. According to the astrologer, Kohli is expected to play till 2027, which is two years from now, and that includes big tournaments like the Champions Trophy, ODI World Cup and the World Test Championship. He is going to perform brilliantly as Uranus, which has been weakened in the last few months, is going to come back into exaltation on November 15 exactly and it is going to remain there throughout the tournament. One important thing that I can say (for now) is that Virat Kohli is definitely going to play some very interesting roles in Australia. So, for all the fans of Virat Kohli, let me tell you one thing. I assure you of one thing. Virat Kohli will play at least till 2027.
