“Having captaincy or not will not make any difference” – Irfan Pathan said about Rohit’s batting.
Team India’s former star all-rounder Irfan Pathan believes that Rohit Sharma will adopt the same aggressive attitude in IPL 2024 which he had adopted in the 2023 ODI World Cup. Let us tell you that Mumbai Indians (MI) bought Hardik Pandya from Gujarat Titans (GT) before the IPL 2024 auction. Later, he appointed Baroda all-rounder (Hardik Pandya) as his captain in place of Rohit for the upcoming edition of this cash rich league. Under the captaincy of Rohit, Mumbai Indians have won five IPL titles. During a discussion on Star Sports, Pathan was asked whether Rohit will play more freely in IPL 2024 since he is no longer the captain. Responding to this, Irfan said, “Weren’t there captaincy restrictions on him in the 50-over World Cup? There too he was the captain and played with an amazing strike rate. I think it will not make any difference whether there is captaincy or not. He has changed his outlook for some time now, it will make a difference in a short time. I think he will continue that template.” The former Indian all-rounder said that Rohit’s positive batting approach has benefited him a lot in recent times. Irfan said that, “It took him about a year and a half to achieve that template. Earlier, Rohit Sharma used to take his time for the first two or three overs and then score runs quickly. In the last two years, he took the responsibility and said that he will score fast runs from the first over and he has started getting the results now.”
Jaiswal is troubled by the fear of being dropped from the Test team, that is why he is praising captain Rohit a lot.
He further said, “Rohit Sharma helps me maintain a positive mindset, and we need to score runs quickly against the new ball. I just wanted to give a good start and that was all I had in mind because we had to win the match.”
If Naveen Ul Haq withdraws his name from IPL 2024, then LSG can sign these three players in his place.
Naveen Ul Haq took 11 wickets in 8 matches for Lucknow Super Giants in the 2023 season. Naveen Ul Haq (Pic Source-Twitter) Naveen Ul Haq is one of the three Afghanistan players who have not been given NOC by the Afghanistan Cricket Board to play franchise league cricket. Let us tell you, Naveen Ul Haq, Mujeeb Ur Rehman and Fazalhaq Farooqui had refused the central contract of Afghanistan Cricket Board. Still, proceedings are going on against these three players by the board and it is finding difficult for all these three players to play in IPL 2024. Talking about Naveen Ul Haq, he bowled very well for Lucknow Super Giants in the Indian Premier League 2023 and that is why the team retained him. Naveen Ul Haq took 11 wickets in 8 matches for Lucknow Super Giants in the 2023 season. However, if Naveen Ul Haq is not seen playing in the upcoming season, then Lucknow team can include these three players in their squad in his place. 1- Lance Morris Lance Morris (Image Source: CA Lance Morris is from Australia and has bowled very well in domestic cricket. Lance Morris is capable of bowling at a speed of 150 KMPH consistently. Lance Morris has also bowled very well for Perth Scorchers in the Big Bash League. He has taken 15 wickets in 20 T20 matches. If Naveen Ul Haq does not get NOC from Afghanistan Cricket Board, then Lucknow team can include this excellent player of Australia in their squad.

Both Siraj and Bumrah played important roles in India’s recent win over South Africa, ending the two-match Test series with a draw. In such a situation, the selection committee will try to keep Bumrah and Siraj fit for the Test series against England by giving them rest.

When the pitch is bad, somehow the Indian team performs best there – Aakash Chopra
The Cape Town Test match was over in less than two days. Aakash Chopra (Photo Source: Twitter) Team India recently registered a historic win by defeating South Africa by 7 wickets in Cape Town. This was the shortest match in the history of Test cricket. (depending on the balls). After this match, there is discussion everywhere about the pitch of Cape Town. In this match played in Cape Town, the fast bowlers got a lot of help from the pitch and the batsmen had to struggle to a great extent to score runs. In this series, now former Team India cricketer Akash Chopra has given his opinion. He believes that whenever the pitch is bad, Team India performs its best in that difficult situation. While hosting JioCinema’s daily sports show ‘#AAKASHVANI’, Aakash Chopra gave his opinion about the Cape Town pitch. Indian team never complains about the pitch – Aakash Chopra Chopra said, “When a Test match lasts for one and a half days, some results also come. There are some talks regarding the pitch. Some questions have been asked. India have never complained about the quality of the pitches offered. Last time the Wanderers pitch was really bad. To be honest, some players could have got hurt due to this. This pitch of Cape Town was also bad. India still focused on the match and did not complain. I also remember that pitch in Perth (Australia). And it was really bad. You can’t justify a pitch where the ball comes off good length and goes over the keeper’s head. There also India did not say anything. He just competed and showed fighting spirit. In fact, when the pitch is bad, somehow the Indian team performs best there. I think neither such pitches nor dusty pitches are good for the game in India. This is simply not good for the game of cricket.” Also read: Brett Lee seen talking in Hindi in Big Bash League, watch video
