‘India is the lowest in the world…’, Vaughan took a dig at Team India after the crushing defeat in Centurion.
Vaughan described India as a low achieving team Team India and Michael Vaughan. (Image Source: Getty Images) Michael Vaughan is always in the news for his statements. Now, after India’s defeat in the Centurion Test at the hands of South Africa, he has again let down Team India by commenting. Commenting, the former England captain has called India a low achieving team. Actually, South Africa defeated Rohit Sharma and Company by an innings and 32 runs due to the excellent performance of the bowlers in the Centurion Test. With this victory, the host team took a 1-0 lead in the two-match Test series. After the shameful defeat in Centurion, India’s dream of winning the Test series in South Africa was also shattered. After the match, Michael Vaughan on Fox Sports said that Team India has plenty of resources, yet it has failed to achieve big achievements. Vaughan again let India down Vaughan asked former Australian cricketer Mark Waugh, ‘Do you think that in terms of cricket, India is one of the least achieving teams in the world?’ The Australian veteran asked the same question to Vaughan to which he said, he has not won much in recent times. I think they are an underachieving side. Continuing his talk, Michael Vaughan said, they won the Test series in Australia twice (2018/19 and 2020/21). Brilliant, but could not win the last few World Cups and T20 World Cups. They are a good team, they have a lot of talent, but with the amount of talent they have and the resources they have, I don’t think they will win. Let us tell you that in November 2022, when India lost by 10 wickets in the T20 World Cup semi-final against England, Vaughan had called the Men in Blue “underachievers” for the first time. Before the Centurion Test, India had lost in the World Cup 2023 final. Before that, Australia had lost in the World Test Championship final in June. read this also- Ruckus over Mohammad Rizwan’s controversial out, this viral picture created a stir

IND vs SA: Sunil Gavaskar did not accept Irfan Pathan’s apology, know the whole matter
KL Rahul scored a century in India’s first innings in the Centurion Test. Irfan Pathan and Sunil Gavaskar. (Image Source: BCCI No one expected the way Indian batsmen performed in the Centurion Test against South Africa. However, KL Rahul scored a brilliant century in India’s first innings, for which he was praised a lot. Former Indian all-rounder Irfan Pathan also reacted to his batting. He discussed about Rahul’s batting strategy. During this, Irfan Pathan was heard apologizing to Sunil Gavaskar on live TV, but Gavaskar did not accept his apology. Actually, KL Rahul played an inning of 101 runs against the host team in the first innings, which included 14 fours and 4 sixes. After this, Irfan Pathan talked about Rahul’s batting technique in that innings. His assessment was so accurate that even Sunil Gavaskar was left speechless. Know what Irfan Pathan said? During the lunch break on the first day, Irfan said, ‘See, first of all in terms of technique, Sunny sir had told how he should play under his head. For a batsman, it is always a matter of discussion whether he is moving his feet forward or backward while playing the ball. In Rahul’s case, he is letting the ball come to him, which is important. But apart from that, a brilliant aspect of his batting was the position of his bat. Pathan further said, the angle of the bat is not in line with his hands, it is a little behind. What this does is you get a little extra time. Otherwise, you will stumble and play the ball on your toes. This is where the possibility of cornering increases. Meanwhile, Irfan said, ‘Sorry sir!’, later Gavaskar said that he is not accepting his apology, because he also got to learn here. What Irfan said about batting technique is also correct. Don’t forget that he has been an all-rounder, so what he thought and said was from a bowler’s perspective. read this also- Father-in-law Shahid Afridi unaware of Shaheen’s injury!

Shahid Afridi and Shaheen Afridi (Image Source: Getty Images) Pakistan team is currently on Australia tour for a three-match test series. After losing to the host team in the first test, the Pakistan team had to face defeat in the second test also. Shaheen Shah Afridi has bowled well in these two test matches. Meanwhile, former Pakistani all-rounder Shahid Afridi said he does not believe he is injured despite the drop in pace. He said that there are high expectations from the team’s star players especially Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan and Shaheen. He also said that there can be problems for those who do not manage their game. Shahid Afridi said, I never felt that Shaheen was hurt. If you are injured you cannot play as a fast bowler. He knows his responsibility and he is very important for the team. We are expecting from the fast bowlers because they have performed well in the past. We need a strong bench- Shahid Afridi He said that Babar Azam, Shaheen etc. have performed so well that we expect similar performance from them in every match. Consistency is challenging in cricket. I have always said that unless our bench is strong, we will not be able to take the best decisions. The former cricketer continued his point by saying that the A team should be as strong as the premier team. So that if Shaheen or Babar or Rizwan is not there then we will not have the excuse of players being unavailable. When our bench is strong, we will have no excuse. If we talk about test series Australia took an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series against Pakistan by registering victory in the second Test at the MCG after a big win in Perth. read this also- ‘One cannot depend on one bowler’, Rohit Sharma angry at the bowlers after the defeat in Centurion
Sanjay Manjrekar’s big reaction regarding Prasidh Krishna, said- throwing him out after just one match…
Manjrekar believes that the team management will give Prasidh another chance. Sanjay Manjrekar and Prasidh Krishna (Image Source: Indian fast bowler Prasidh Krishna made his debut in the first test against South Africa, but he could not do anything special in his debut test. In the bowling spell of 20 overs, Prasidh spent 93 runs and took only 1 wicket. Despite his poor performance, former India batsman Sanjay Manjrekar believes that it would not be right to drop Prasidh after just one match. Sanjay Manjrekar said on Cricinfo that it would be a bit difficult to drop Prasidh Krishna after just one match. If you watch him, he’s not someone who hits the ball hard. He uses his height. Everything he pitches is a little floaty. The only balls that have some speed and power are the short balls. Management will give him another chance- Sanjay Manjrekar He believes that the team management led by Rahul Dravid will give Prasidh another chance. However, he also said that if Ravi Shastri and Virat Kohli were still at the helm of the Test team, they would have taken the tough decision of dropping the bowler. He continued by saying that if Mukesh Kumar plays, I don’t think anyone will be unhappy with it. They will see how Mukesh is bowling in the nets and then decide if it is a good fit for Prasidh Krishna. Because this is something that the team management cares about. He said that he can give another chance. But this is a two-match series, so we may be willing to make changes. read this also- ‘One cannot depend on one bowler’, Rohit Sharma angry at the bowlers after the defeat in Centurion
