Rohit Sharma and Gautam Gambhir are constantly facing criticism. After this, Team India now has to play a five-match Test series against Australia under the Border Gavaskar Trophy. Indian captain Rohit Sharma had clearly stated in the press conference held after losing the Test series against New Zealand that India will not play intra-squad matches or practice matches before the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. BCCI had already informed that the Indian team will not play intra-squad matches before the Perth Test, but will instead focus on additional practice sessions. Team India will play intra squad match in Australia However, now reports are coming out that the Indian team is going to play intra squad match. Even this match is going to last for three days, which will start from Friday and will continue till Sunday. However, no one will be able to watch this match, because BCCI has decided not to allow entry to anyone in the stadium. Indian players have reached Australia and according to the report of The West Australian, the three-day intra squad match will be played at the WACA in Perth. No one will be able to watch Team India’s practice sessions and intra-squad matches. Even stadium employees are not allowed to use phones and make videos outside the office. Team India has also started practice for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. On the first day, Virat Kohli along with R Ashwin and Jasprit Bumrah did not participate in the practice session, while KL Rahul, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rishabh Pant were seen in the optional session.
IND vs NZ: Play stopped due to spider cam malfunction in Mumbai Test, field umpire had to take an important decision
Currently, the third test match between Team India and New Zealand is being played at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. IND vs NZ (Pic Source-X) Currently, the third test match between Team India and New Zealand is being played at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. The second day of the game has started and Team India has taken the lead in the first innings in this match. However, New Zealand has also made a very good comeback in the match. On the second day of the game, the spider cam suddenly stopped working due to which the umpire had to take the lunch break a little early. In fact, as soon as Ajaz Patel came to bowl the second over of his new spell, the spider cam stopped working. The field umpire decided that the game should be stopped for a while. However, New Zealand players looked at it humorously. When people came to the field to fix the spider cam, Daryl Mitchell was seen having a funny conversation with the umpire. After this the umpire decided to take a lunch break and the players of both the teams went back to their respective dressing rooms. Lunch break was also taken a few minutes earlier and by then the spider cam was also repaired. Here’s the video: pic.twitter.com/2RTloFZVr3 — Pandit Pranoob (@pranoob76889) November 2, 2024 New Zealand, batting first in this match, scored 235 runs after losing all the wickets. From the host side, Ravindra Jadeja bowled lethally and took 5 wickets while Washington Sundar took four wickets. Both these bowlers maintained a lot of pressure on New Zealand. In reply, Rishabh Pant batted aggressively and scored 60 runs on behalf of Team India while Shubman Gill played a valuable inning of 90 runs. Shubman Gill will be quite disappointed that he could not score a century in the first innings of the third Test. Apart from these two players, Yashasvi Jaiswal played an inning of 30 runs. Ravindra Jadeja failed to do wonders with the bat and was out after scoring 14 runs. Team India is in a very good position at the moment.

Gary Kirsten got Danish Kaneria’s support, former Pakistani player praised the veteran’s decision.
Recently, Gary Kirsten resigned from the post of head coach of Pakistan limited overs cricket before Australia’s tour of Pakistan. Gary Kirsten (Photo Source: Recently, Gary Kirsten resigned from the post of head coach of Pakistan limited overs cricket before Australia’s tour of Pakistan. Let us tell you that recently Pakistan played a three-match Test series against England. Pakistan had to face defeat in the first match of this test series. However, in the remaining two Tests, Pakistan made a strong comeback and defeated England 2-1. After Gary Kirsten resigned from the post of head coach, former Pakistani player Danish Kaneria has presented his side. Danish Kaneria has supported this decision of Gary Kirsten. During an interview with The Times of India, Gary Kirsten said, ‘If you bring someone into the team and from the beginning you want him to perform well, then it is not possible. This is why he was very disappointed with whatever happened after the World Cup. People were trolling and the media was also trolling him. Danish Kaneria further said, ‘Legends like Gary Kirsten will not take all this and I think he has taken a very good decision that he has now left the Pakistan team. This is a big defeat for the Pakistan team, especially for the young players whose arrival would have greatly strengthened the team. Jason Gillespie has been made the head coach of Pakistan’s limited overs cricket team. Danish Kaneria further said, ‘I think there is some problem that the coach should be a part of the selection committee but we won the series against England after which a lot of positive things were seen. There will come a time when coaches will join the selection committee. Let us tell you that Jason Gillespie has been appointed the head coach of Pakistan’s limited overs cricket team. In the series played against England, all the players from Pakistan had performed brilliantly and played an important role in the victory of their team. Now Pakistan has to tour Australia in which a three-match ODI and three-match T20 series will be played between these two teams.

“Out of T20 mentality…”, Sanjay Manjrekar angry at this decision taken for Rohit Sharma in Pune Test.
I think he (Rohit Sharma) should proceed based on the overall quality and ability of the players – Sanjay Manjrekar Rohit Sharma and Sanjay Manjrekar (Photo Source: Team India suffered a humiliating defeat by 113 runs in the second match of the three-match Test series against New Zealand. After this match, New Zealand has won the series by taking a 2-0 lead. India has lost the Test series at home after 12 years. The team is facing a lot of criticism on social media. Some decisions taken by captain Rohit Sharma during the series are under question, including the decision to bat first in overcast conditions in Bengaluru. In the first innings of the first Test, Team India was all out for 46, which is the team’s lowest score in Test matches in Asia. Another decision that is being examined is to prepare a spin-friendly track in the second Test as it became a problem for India. Meanwhile, the cricket commentator talked about another decision of Team India, which did not benefit the team at all. Things like this should not happen – Sanjay Manjrekar Sanjay Manjarkar, while talking about the changes made in the batting order of Team India, has warned captain Rohit Sharma. In the fourth of the second Test, India sent Washington Sundar before Sarfaraz Khan after the fall of Rishabh Pant and retained the left-right combination. Manjrekar termed Rohit Sharma’s decision as disheartening and said that the Indian captain should come out of the T20 mindset. Sanjay Manjrekar while speaking on ESPNCricinfo said, The decision to make Sarfaraz Khan bat lower down the order and send Washington Sundar above him because he is a left-handed batsman, things like this should not happen. This is very strange. This is something that Rohit Sharma needs to be careful about. They should take care of T20 mindset. Left and right hand combinational do not need to match. I think they should move forward based on the overall quality and ability of the players. In the second innings of the second test, both Sarfaraz Khan (9) and Washington Sundar (21) could not play big innings. And Team India was all out at 245 while chasing the target of 359 runs.
Controversy was seen after DRS decision in Afghanistan A vs India A match in Emerging Teams Asia Cup, read big news.
Afghanistan A won against India A by 20 runs. India A vs Afghanistan A (Image Credit- Twitter X) Emerging Teams Asia Cup 2024: The second semi-final match of the ACC Men’s T20 Emerging Teams Asia Cup was played between India A and Afghanistan A on Friday, October 25. Let us tell you that in the match played at Al Emirates Cricket Ground in UAE, India A had to face defeat by 20 runs in a close match. So after this defeat, India is out of the tournament. On the other hand, after a DRS decision during the match, there was a mid-field controversy. This moment was seen in the match when Zubaid Akbari was not out. Coming to bat first, Afghanistan A made a great start to the game and their opening batsmen performed brilliantly. Akbari scored 64 runs in 41 balls. In the match, a ball bowled by Akhib Khan took a slight edge from Akbari’s bat and fell into the hands of Prabhsimran Singh behind the wicket. The Indian player appealed after taking the catch, but the on-field umpire’s initial decision was not out. Seeing this decision, India A players lodged a strong protest as it was out. It is worth noting that there was no DRS available in this clash, hence India A players could not challenge the umpire’s decision. So in the end Team India had to face defeat in this match by 20 runs. Ramandeep Singh played a struggling innings On the other hand, if we tell you the condition of this match, Afghanistan A, after winning the toss and batting first, scored 206 runs at the loss of 4 wickets in 20 overs. For the team, opener Zubaid Akbari played an inning of 64 runs and Sadiullah Atal played an inning of 83 runs. So when India set out to chase this target, it could score only 186 runs at the loss of 7 wickets in 20 overs, and lost the match by 20 runs in a closely contested match. Ramandeep played a brilliant inning of 64 runs in 34 balls for India, but it could not save the team from defeat.
“This seems to be a nervous decision by the Indian team” – Sunil Gavaskar angry at Rohit’s captaincy
Team India has made three changes in the playing XI for the Pune Test match against New Zealand. Rohit Sharma & Sunil Gavaskar (Photo Source: The Indian team is currently playing a three-match Test series against New Zealand. The second test match of the series is being played at Pune MCA Stadium. Three changes have been made in the playing 11 for this match. Head coach Gautam Gambhir and captain Rohit Sharma have entered the second test with a new team combination. The problems of the Indian team have increased after losing the first test of the three-match series against New Zealand. Keeping this in mind, Rohit has given a chance to Akash Deep, Shubman Gill and Washington Sundar in the playing 11 of the Pune Test match, while Mohammad Siraj, KL Rahul and Kuldeep Yadav have been kept on the bench. Former cricketer Sunil Gavaskar has also raised a valid question regarding this. When Shubman Gill returned to the playing XI fit, KL Rahul was dropped to make his place in the team. While Kuldeep Yadav, who did not do anything special in Bengaluru, Washington Sundar was brought in his place in the team, while Mohammad Siraj also did not look in that rhythm in Bengaluru and Akashdeep has been entered in his place in the playing XI. Sunil Gavaskar gave a big statement regarding the changes in Team India Regarding this change, former legend Sunil Gavaskar believes that for the second Test against New Zealand, India might have nervously included Washington Sundar in place of Kuldeep Yadav in the playing eleven. Gavaskar told the match broadcasters after the toss on Thursday, “It seems to be a nervous decision by the Indian team. “You don’t often make three changes in a team.” Gavaskar said, “Unless there is an injury concern, I don’t see many teams making three changes. The inclusion of Washington Sundar shows that they are worried about their batting. More than bowling, they need his batting lower down the order.” He said, ‘Yes, there is a lot of discussion about left-handed batsmen in New Zealand’s batting unit, but I would choose Kuldeep Yadav because his ball moves outside off for left-handed batsmen.
Big changes are going to happen in Test and ODI formats, ICC may take decision soon
ICC WTC Logo (Photo Source: To promote the Test and ODI formats, the International Cricket Council (ICC) is considering making some changes. Under this change, there will be a minimum of three Tests in each World Test Championship (WTC) series and in ODIs, two balls will be used for the first 25 overs and then the remaining 25 overs will be bowled with a single ball. The ICC board meeting was held in Dubai, in which women’s cricket was also discussed. If TOI report is to be believed, ICC’s Cricket Committee has received many suggestions in the board meeting. For this reason, the Cricket Committee has recommended that in order to promote Test cricket, as many Day-Night Tests i.e. Pink Ball Test matches should be organized in the next WTC cycle and the Test series should also be of at least 3 matches under the WTC. . ICC is considering conducting a three-match test series An ICC source said, “Some countries like South Africa, New Zealand and Sri Lanka play only two-Test series on most occasions. Only India, England and Australia play long Test series. This does not help in promoting Test cricket and makes the distribution of points very unfair. The recommendations are aimed at eradicating such disparities.” Day-Night Test is currently organized only in Cricket Australia, but BCCI has not played a single Test match with pink ball on its soil for two years. Team India will play the Pink Ball Test in Australia in the coming December. The source said, “The ICC committee believes that more people come to the stadium because of the Test matches played with the pink ball. Recently the viewership in Pakistan has been very low. More tickets than usual were sold in the 3 pink ball test matches played in India. Test playing countries should be encouraged to play more pink ball Test matches.”
IND vs NZ: Aakash Chopra raised questions on this decision of Rohit Sharma, said- “There was no life left in the match, then bowling to him…”
There is no doubt that runs were less but we did not make Ashwin bowl at all – Aakash Chopra Rohit Sharma, Aakash Chopra, R Ashwin (Photo Source: X/Getty Images) India had to face defeat by 8 wickets in the first test match against New Zealand. The Kiwi team has created history by winning the Test match on Indian soil after 36 years. Team India was all out for 46 runs in the first innings of the match. New Zealand had put 402 runs on the board in the first innings. India made a brilliant comeback in the second innings and scored 462 runs on the basis of brilliant innings by Sarfaraz Khan (150), Rishabh Pant (99) and Virat Kohli (70). New Zealand had a target of 107 runs to win, which they achieved easily. Jasprit Bumrah took only two wickets for India in the second innings. He bowled a long spell along with Siraj. After this, Ashwin was expected to come on the attack, but captain Rohit Sharma backed Ravindra Jadeja and Kuldeep Yadav. Cricket commentator Aakash Chopra is not happy with this decision of Rohit Sharma. Didn’t understand it at all – Aakash Chopra Ravichandran Ashwin proved to be very expensive in the first innings against New Zealand, due to which perhaps captain Rohit Sharma showed more confidence in Kuldeep and Jadeja. However, Aakash Chopra believes that this was a wrong decision, as Ashwin is the most successful bowler of the team and his record against left-handed batsmen is excellent. While talking on his YouTube channel, Aakash Chopra said, There is no doubt that runs were less but we did not make Ashwin bowl at all. I am not saying that if Ashwin had bowled, we would have won the match but we did not make him bowl. It was amazing and how. Why was Ashwin not made to bowl? I don’t have any answer to that because if you look at his numbers, he is the best bowler in your team. No one has taken more wickets than him in Test matches. Left-handed batsmen were playing but still you did not make them bowl. It didn’t make any sense at all. There were 15 or 20 runs left and you called him to bowl – Aakash Chopra Aakash Chopra further said that by the time Rohit Sharma handed the ball to Ashwin, the match was out of India’s hands. He said, The match was over. There was no life left in the match. There were 15 or 20 runs left and you called him to bowl. It would have been better if you had not made him bowl at all. This question should have been asked in the press conference after the match – ‘Rohit Bhai, what did you do?’. I thought India had definitely missed a trick and it was beyond me why they were not made to bowl.
IND vs NZ: Five reasons which became the reason for Team India’s defeat, one decision of Rohit Sharma ruined the game
New Zealand defeated India by 8 wickets in the first test match. IND vs NZ (Photo Source: Getty Images) Team India, captained by Rohit Sharma, had to face a shameful defeat by 8 wickets in the Test played against New Zealand in Bengaluru. With this victory, New Zealand took a 1-0 lead in the three-match Test series. In this match, India set a target of only 107 runs for the Kiwi team, which they easily achieved on the fifth day at the loss of 2 wickets. Now the question in everyone’s mind is that where did Team India go wrong in this match and why did it lose this match, let us tell you. IND vs NZ 5 Reasons Why India Lost First Test Match (Five reasons why Team India lost the first test against New Zealand) 1. Rohit Sharma’s wrong decision on the toss. When the toss of this match took place on the second day of the Test match, there were overcast conditions. Not a single ball was bowled on the first day due to rain. At the same time, when the game started on the second day, Rohit took a wrong decision after winning the toss. India chose to bat and the entire team was bundled out for only 46 runs. Five players including Virat Kohli could not even open their accounts. Rohit himself later admitted that there was a mistake in taking the decision after the toss. Rohit said after the first day’s play, “As a captain, I am sad to see the score of 46 runs because the decision to bat first was mine. But one or two bad decisions are made every year.” 2. Conway’s innings proved costly for India After India were bowled out cheaply in the first innings, New Zealand opener Devon Conway gave trouble to the Indian bowlers. Conway played an inning of 91 runs in 105 balls with the help of 11 fours and 3 sixes. He made a partnership of 67 runs for the first wicket with captain Tom Latham (15). Conway then took over the innings with Will Young (33). Both of them added 75 runs for the second wicket and put pressure on the host team. 3. Racine-Saudi partnership Apart from Conway, Rachin Ravindra (134 in 157 balls), who came to bat at number four, troubled the Indian bowlers. Rachin made a 39-run partnership with Daryl Mitchell (18) for the fourth wicket. However, when Tim Southee (65) came to support Rachin, both of them made a partnership of 137 runs for the eighth wicket. Thanks to the partnership of both, New Zealand scored 402 in the first innings. If India had managed to break this partnership early, then perhaps New Zealand’s innings could have been reduced to below 300 and perhaps the result of the match could have been different. 4. Rahul and Jadeja failed in the second innings also In the second innings of the test match, India scored 462 runs on the board due to the excellent batting of Sarfaraz Khan (150), Rishabh Pant…
