The captain further said, “We want to keep Mayank, Harshit and Nitish with us, because we are thinking of taking them to Australia, we want to build bench strength, especially with fast bowlers. We have 8 or 9 options, not just 3 or 4. Like batting, we want more options in bowling also.” “We don’t want to be too dependent on a few players,” he added. It is not right to do this. Looking at the future, we want to try to ensure that we get the right players.” This is why India has fast bowlers Mayank Yadav, Harshit Rana, Nitish Kumar Reddy and Prasidh Krishna for the three Test matches against New Zealand. Present as a reserve player for the series. Rohit said, “Tomorrow if we feel that he is ready to play that role (in place of the injured fast bowler) then he should be ready for it.

He took three important wickets in Gwalior and then took two wickets for 19 runs in the second T20 played at Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. Varun Chakraborty has performed very well in the Indian Premier League for a long time and is one of the important players of the team. After Gautam Gambhir becomes the head coach of Team India, Varun Chakraborty can be given many opportunities in the T20 team. Recently, former player Aakash Chopra has given a big statement about Varun Chakraborty. According to him, the upcoming season of T20 World Cup is to be played in India and Varun Chakraborty can also be included in the team. Aakash Chopra said on his official YouTube channel, ‘Varun Chakraborty is making a comeback after a long gap of 3 years. In the first match against Bangladesh, Varun Chakraborty took three important wickets and in the second match, he bowled even better than the first match. He bowled with more confidence. He continuously bowled on the stumps line due to which Bangladesh batsmen failed to play big shots. This is a very good sign for him. After all, why do you want to feed Varun Chakraborty? The next World Cup is to be held in India after 2 years. You included Chahal in the World Cup but did not give him a chance to play even a single match: Aakash Chopra Regarding Yuzvendra Chahal, Aakash Chopra said, ‘You included Chahal in the team. If Varun Chakraborty can do this at the age of 33 then why not Chahal? You included him in the team in the World Cup but he did not get a chance to play in a single match. Great spinners are bowling well in every IPL season but they are not getting a chance in international cricket. I want to know why this is so? The third and final T20 match between Team India and Bangladesh will be played on October 12 in Hyderabad. Varun Chakraborty would definitely like to leave his mark in this match also.
