Cameron Green (Image Credit- Twitter X) Australia’s best all-rounder Cameron Green is fully prepared to open in Test cricket. Let us tell you, David Warner has retired from Test cricket in January. Since then, there have been many players who have been given the responsibility of opening for the Australian Test team. Cameron Green is seen batting at number four in Test cricket. This young player scored a valuable century for his team against New Zealand in March and also took three wickets. Due to his excellent all-round performance, Australia won the series 2-0. Cameron Green said about his batting order at number four in the Wisden Cricket Weekly podcast, ‘There are three to four players who want to bat at number four and this is mostly seen in international cricket. Most players bat at number three or number four throughout their career. Steve Smith is the best player to bat at number four. Travis Head and Marnus Labuschagne are also in this list. I have batted in the same order throughout my domestic cricketing career. You need to fit everyone in and it is not necessary that all players are seen batting at number 4. You are always excited to play for Australia: Cameron Green The brilliant all-rounder further said, ‘Now it is up to Steve Smith to decide what he thinks about the batting lineup. I am ready to bat in any order. If I am given the responsibility of opening, then I would like to do it well. You are always desperate to play for Australia. Opening the team is not an easy thing but I will not refuse it. Whatever decision the selectors take, I will be ready to fulfill that responsibility. I have also opened for Australia in T20 cricket. I bowled the 20th over against India and then came to open the batting. This is really a very difficult thing.

Gary Kirsten (Image Credit- Twitter X) The connection camp organized by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) for players and coaching staff was held in Lahore on 23 September. Head coach Gary Kirsten and Jason Gillespie attended the conference. Apart from these two, Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan, Shan Masood and Shadab Khan also attended the camp. In a recent discussion, Pakistan’s white ball coach Gary Kirsten shared the main agenda of the meeting as well as the first principles of professionalism and pride. Gary Kirsten wants the men’s team to follow this strictly so that their game can improve even more. According to India Today, Gary Kirsten said, ‘I am very happy that I am also a part of this connection camp. The most important aspect of this camp was to connect with the players of the team and discuss important things. We can all agree on one thing that everyone wants the Pakistan cricket team to be successful in all three formats. Today we are all here together so that we can help bring out a better version of the Pakistan team. So I think now the team and the players have to talk about professionalism which is very important. By doing this we can bring back the pride of Pakistan cricket and the performance of the team can be much better than before. We will have to take some tough decisions: Gary Kirsten Let us tell you that the performance of the Pakistan team in international cricket has been very poor for some time now. Recently, they had to face a 2-0 defeat at home in the two-match Test series against Bangladesh. Not only this, the Pakistan team has also failed to make a mark in ODI and T20 formats in the recent past. Gary Kirsten further said, ‘We all want our team to be the most successful. This is really a very talented team and we are capable of performing our best no matter what the format is. If we have to be successful then the team will also have to take some important decisions. Pakistan has to play important matches against the best teams in the world in the coming times and for this we will have to work even harder.’ Highest wicket taker in the history of Women’s T20 World Cup- List of captains who have won the most Test matches for India- List of highest wicket takers in Duleep Trophy 2024- List of highest run scorers in Duleep Trophy 2024- List of bowlers with most five-wicket hauls in Test cricket- IND vs BAN Latest WTC Points Table after the first test- Highest run scorer in the history of Women’s T20 World Cup- These teams have lost in the finals of the Women’s T20 World Cup Against which team has Virat Kohli scored the most Test centuries?

Cricket may be out of Asian Games 2026, know the whole matter
According to reports, the sport will be dropped from the 2026 Asian Games which is scheduled to be hosted in Japan. Cricket Sports (Pic Source-X) Many are eagerly waiting for the return of cricket in the upcoming Olympics in Los Angeles in 2028. However, according to reports, this great sport will be excluded from the 2026 Asian Games which are to be hosted in Japan. Let us tell you that cricket made a successful comeback in the 2023 Asian Games and many people loved it a lot. However, the future of cricket in the Asian Games seems to be in danger. However, everyone is quite surprised about this thing because both the Asian Olympic Council (OCA) and the Japanese Organizing Committee have supported this game. Asian Olympic Council Deputy Director General Vinod Kumar Tiwari said, ‘The Organising Committee is very excited about the inclusion of cricket in the 2026 Asian Games.’ However, sources have revealed that logistical challenges may prove too difficult to overcome despite a proposal to repurpose a baseball stadium in Nagoya for cricket matches. It is very important to include cricket in the 2026 Asian Games: Japan Cricket Association Operations Chief Alan Curr Japan Cricket Association’s operations chief Alan Kurr has stressed the importance of the Asian Games for the development of the game. He said, ‘It is very important that cricket is included in the 2026 Asian Games so that this game can be loved more and more even in those places where it is not played. Here cricket is seen as a very minor game.’ The Asian Cricket Council, headed by Jai Shah, is in constant talks with the relevant authorities. Jai Shah, who played a key role in cricket’s successful Los Angeles 2028 Olympic bid, is trying to expand the sport in South Asia.

“Arshdeep Singh will be lethal in red ball cricket as well: Exclusive interview of Amitoj Singh”
Will Arshdeep, who has performed brilliantly in white-ball cricket, be able to fill the void of India’s left-arm fast bowler in Test cricket? Amitoze Singh on Arshdeep Singh (Source Former left-arm fast bowler Zaheer Khan played an important role in the Indian team’s victory in the ICC ODI World Cup 2011. Zaheer Khan’s performance in international cricket has always been excellent and he left his mark against the batsmen of the opposing team. Zaheer Khan always kept the pressure on the players of the opposing team with his reverse swing. But after the departure of Zaheer Khan, Team India is missing a left-arm fast bowler a lot. Jaspreet Bumrah is leading the pace attack well but the advantage of being a left-arm fast bowler is not only for the team but also for the bowler. Amitoj Singh made a big statement about Arshdeep Singh’s career It is worth noting that Arshdeep Singh, who comes from Punjab, has almost cemented his place in Team India’s white ball cricket and is being seen as Team India’s next Zaheer Khan. Arshdeep Singh has also played a role in Team India’s victorious campaign in the T20 World Cup 2024. However, he is still away from red ball cricket and many experts believe that Arshdeep is capable of filling the void left by Zaheer Khan. Amitoj Singh, a 35-year-old domestic cricketer from India, is currently playing with Manipal Tigers in the Legends League Cricket 2024 tournament. He is one of the well-known cricketers from Punjab. In an exclusive interview with Crictracker, he has shared his views on the left-arm fast bowler’s spot in Team India. Question: India is lacking left-handed bowlers since the departure of Zaheer Khan in Team India, how do you see Arshdeep Singh? Amitoze Singh’s answer: “I think Arshdeep Singh can do as well in the red ball as he is doing in the white ball. He needs a little more consistency and a little more performance in the Ranji Trophy, due to which he can get a breakthrough in red ball cricket.” “The way he swings the white ball as well, I think he will be very useful and lethal as a left-arm fast bowler in whatever conditions there are in England and abroad.”
Asghar Afghan Exclusive Part 1: Afghanistan will defeat India too, cricket will not be banned in the country…
It is difficult to beat India in India, but if the match is held in Sharjah then India will face problems – Asghar Afghan Asghar Afghan (Photo Source: Getty Images) Afghanistan’s veteran player Asghar Afghan is playing for Gujarat Giants in Legends League Cricket. Asghar Afghan retired from international cricket after the T20 World Cup 2021. He has played 6 Tests, 114 ODIs and 75 T20 matches for Afghanistan. Recently, Asghar Afghan talked about many things in an exclusive interview with CricTracker. He made a big statement about Afghanistan’s first ODI win against South Africa recently. Afghan also made a big claim that Afghanistan will now defeat India as well. If the match had been played between South Africa and England, perhaps the result would have been different- Asghar Afghan The three-match ODI series between Afghanistan and South Africa is being played in the UAE. In the first match of the series, Afghanistan defeated South Africa for the first time in the ODI format by winning by 6 wickets. At the same time, the team then won the second ODI by 177 runs and achieved the biggest victory in this format. Talking about Afghanistan’s performance in the ODI series against South Africa, Asghar Afghan said, Teams face difficulties in playing against Afghanistan in Sharjah because it is our home ground and we know how the wicket is at any given time. If this match had taken place in South Africa and England, the result would have been different. But there is no doubt that Afghanistan has played great cricket and bowled brilliantly. If we look at it on paper, the players of the Afghanistan team have more experience than South Africa. Because apart from one or two players, many players play a lot of cricket. The team will now defeat India as well- Afghan Asghar Afghan was asked another question whether Afghanistan can beat India in the upcoming series, to which the veteran replied, You can’t say anything in cricket. The match between Afghanistan and India was tied in the 2018 Asia Cup. Recently, the last match of the T20 series of the India tour was tied and a super over was played. There is no doubt that Afghanistan is a great team. You cannot say whether you will be able to defeat this team or not because cricket is a day game, whoever plays well will win the match. If a series is played between India and Afghanistan, then Afghanistan will give them a tough challenge. It is difficult to defeat India in India, but if the match is held in Sharjah, then India will have to face difficulties. These are false rumours- Asghar Afghan said about the ban on cricket in Afghanistan There have been reports in the media for a long time that cricket may be banned in Afghanistan. Let us tell you, the Taliban government has already banned women from playing cricket. Further, the third question asked to Asghar Afghan in the exclusive interview was about the ban on cricket in Afghanistan, to which he…
