Let us tell you, after a long gap of 13 months, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have returned to the Indian T20 team.

Former South African captain Graeme Smith has given his stand regarding the return of both these players to the Indian team. Speaking to ANI, Graeme Smith said, ‘Looking at the amount of cricket the Indian team plays, it can be said that it is important to give rest to all the players from time to time and new players should also be given a chance. We have seen that many young players from India perform very well in the IPL and they have left their mark in the T20 format as well. I think the coach and selection panel should understand what the players need and what kind of players they need on which pitches. It is not so easy to select players with the kind of talent India has: Graeme Smith The former South African captain further said, ‘India has no dearth of talent and that is why they face a lot of difficulty in selecting players. According to me, along with the experienced players, some young players should also be included and only then the team will perform well. Let us tell you, Rohit and Virat had earlier played a T20 match against Australia in the World Cup. Afghanistan has also announced its team for this tour. Now it remains to be seen whether Afghanistan can give competition to India in its own backyard or not?

Mohammed Shami. (Photo Source: Twitter) Team India’s fast bowler Mohammed Shami may remain out of the first two Tests of the five-match series against England starting from January 25. He recently revealed that he played with pain during the ODI World Cup 2023, after which he was advised to take a break from the game. Currently, he is recovering from an ankle injury, which also ruled him out of the two-match Test series against South Africa. According to reports, the 33-year-old player has not started bowling in the nets yet. BCCI officials are hopeful that the fast bowler will undergo his fitness test at the NCA before making a place in the Test team. If he passes the test, Shami will join the team in Rajkot for the third Test. Will not be able to play the first two test matches against England – BCCI official A BCCI source was quoted by the Indian Express as saying, “Shami has not even started bowling yet, he will have to go to NCA to prove his fitness. It is difficult for him to play in the first two Tests against England. For the first two Test matches against England, Prasidh Krishna or Mukesh Kumar can be included in the playing eleven in place of Shami. In the second Test against the Proteas at Newlands, Cape Town, Kumar performed well with the ball, while Prasidh was decent. Captain Rohit Sharma was not happy with his performance in the first Test of the series in Centurion. Except Shami, all other Test cricketers are fit for the blockbuster series against England. The team is set to reunite in Hyderabad after the series against Afghanistan. The T2oI series against Afghanistan will end on January 17.
It was not right to throw a 19-year-old girl under the bus: Harmanpreet Kaur gave a befitting reply to the question of former Indian bowler

Not only this, after the second T20, now Australia women’s team has tied 1-1 in the three-match T20 series. In this match, young player Shreyanka Patil from the Indian women’s team failed to leave her mark. In this match, he gave 40 runs in four overs and took only one wicket. Let us tell you, Australia women’s team needed 15 runs in the last two overs to win this match but Shreyanka Patil gave away 17 runs in the 19th over of the match and Australia easily won this match. Before this over, the young player had given 23 runs in three overs. Indian women’s team captain Harmanpreet Kaur found Shreyanka Patil’s performance very poor and reprimanded the young bowler. If Shreyanka Patil had bowled well in her last over, things might have been different: Harmanpreet Kaur After the match was over, Harmanpreet Kaur said at the presentation, ‘If Shreyanka Patil had bowled well in her last over, perhaps things could have been different. We were continuously taking wickets in the middle overs and we were also getting chances which was a very positive thing. He still desperately needs changes in his game. We have played a lot of such matches but there are many young faces in the team. I have full hope that all the players will want to improve their game. Taking cognizance of Harmanpreet’s comments about her teammate, former Indian fast bowler Doda Ganesh criticized the Indian captain for throwing Shreyanka under the bus. To this the captain of the Indian women’s team replied, ‘It is not right to throw a 19 year old girl under the bus.’ Throwing a 19yo kid under the bus is not done #INDvAUS — Dodda Ganesh दौद्ग गानेश (@doddaganesha) January 7, 2024 So far, two T20 matches have been played between the two teams and now the third and final T20 will be played on the same ground on January 9.

If Rohit Sharma says I am available, how will you remove him- K Srikkanth
Former Team India cricketer K Srikkanth Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are expected to play in the upcoming T20 World Cup, which is scheduled to start from June 1. Let us tell you that Rohit and Virat have not played a single match in this format since the T-20 World Cup semi-finals. But he has been recalled to the team for the upcoming three-match series against Afghanistan. Srikanth said that if Rohit is available for selection then the team management cannot exclude him. He said the 36-year-old player is sad after losing to Australia in the ODI World Cup final and would like to retire with the T20 World Cup, which will be held in West Indies and USA. Srikkanth also said that, Virat Kohli will definitely feature in the tournament as he is in great form. K Srikkanth’s big statement regarding Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli In a video on his YouTube channel, Srikkanth said, “Virat Kohli is sure. He is in great form. Rohit Sharma is probably confident about how he scored in the World Cup. He will regroup and try to perform well in the IPL. If Rohit Sharma says I am available, you cannot say that you will drop him. At the end of the day, Rohit Sharma is also hurt by the fact that he has lost a World Cup. He would like to retire at least with the World Cup in hand. He was there in the 2007 World Cup. He would like to do something similar, win the World Cup and then retire. Virat Kohli, considered one of the greatest players of all time, has not yet won the T20 World Cup. He was the top run-scorer in the last edition of the T20 World Cup and is in ‘great form’ at the moment. Regarding him, Srikant had said that, “Virat Kohli would definitely like to win the T20 World Cup. Apart from this, the T20 World Cup took place only 13 months ago last year. Virat Kohli was in extraordinary form. If they say they’re available, I don’t think you can skip them.

“No one knows why he is not in the team, it is a different story”- Aakash Chopra said about Ishan Kishan
Ishan Kishan had withdrawn his name from the Test series against South Africa. Ishan Kishan Aakash Chopra (Photo Source: Twitter) Former Team India cricketer Aakash Chopra believes that Sanju Samson and Jitesh Sharma have been selected ahead of Ishan Kishan in the Indian team for the T20 series against Afghanistan because they can play wicketkeeper-batsman in the middle order. Can play in. Mohali will host the first match of the three-match T20 series between the Men in Blue and Afghanistan on Thursday (January 11), while the other matches will be played in Indore and Bengaluru. The selectors on Sunday named a 16-man squad for the series, with Samson and Jitesh selected as wicketkeeping options. No one knows why Ishaan Kishan is not there – Aakash Chopra In a video shared on his YouTube channel, Chopra said that there was no explanation for why Samson was selected in place of Kishan as the wicketkeeper-batsman option. He elaborated, “Jitesh Sharma and Sanju Samson are the two wicketkeepers, although Samson was not kept as the keeper in the last two series. Ishan Kishan was going as the keeper but now he is no more. No one knows why Ishan Kishan is not there. This is a different story.” The former India opener said that the lack of vacancies in the top order might have forced the selectors to pick Samson and Jitesh. He said, “You have suddenly filled the opening slot. Virat Kohli plays at number 3, he does not play at number 4. Therefore the keeper will have to bat lower in the order. You have only two keeping options who can bat lower down the order, one is Jitesh Sharma and the other is Sanju Samson.” It is noteworthy that Ishan Kishan was out of the recent Test series against South Africa due to personal reasons. There is no clarity whether he has been ignored for the Afghanistan T20I series or he is still not available for selection. Also read: What problem has BCCI faced with KL Rahul now?
