The first match of this T20 series will be played in Durban. Both the teams are fully prepared for the upcoming T20 series. However, before this T20 series, South African captain Aiden Markram has given a big statement. According to Aiden Markram, he is not looking at this four-match T20 series to avenge the defeat against Team India in the final of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. Let us tell you that the final match of ICC T20 World Cup 2024 was played in Barbados, which Team India won by 7 runs. At one time in this final, South Africa were in a very good position and they needed only 30 runs in the last five overs. But Team India made a strong comeback and won the match. Aiden Markram said that his entire focus will be on performing well in the home series against Team India and he would definitely like to make it his name. Aiden Markram said during the press conference before the match, ‘It is the same country I think but individually there has been a lot of change in both the teams. It is always an exciting series against Team India especially when you are playing at home. Our eyes are on winning this series. This is not a rematch. There is a lot of talk going on about this series which I can completely understand. How many players from the T20 World Cup final will be seen playing in the upcoming series? Let us tell you that after the victory of T20 World Cup 2024, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja have retired from this format. Rishabh Pant, Kuldeep Yadav and Jasprit Bumrah were also part of the playing XI of the final but they have been rested in this series. Suryakumar Yadav will be seen captaining Team India in the upcoming series while the squad also includes Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel and Arshdeep Singh. Not only this, many young players have been included in Team India which includes Abhishek Sharma, Tilak Verma, Avesh Khan, Varun Chakraborty, Yash Dayal, Jitesh Sharma and Ramandeep Singh. The upcoming T20 series is going to be very exciting. Suryakumar Yadav’s captaincy has been tremendous in international cricket so far and he would definitely like to win the upcoming series as well.

South Africa series will be do or die for Abhishek Sharma, former cricketer gave a shocking statement
Abhishek Sharma will open the innings with Sanju Samson in the South Africa series. ABHISHEK SHARMA (Image Credit- Twitter X) After his brilliant performance in IPL 2024, the doors of the Indian team opened for Abhishek Sharma and he made his debut in the Zimbabwe series. After this Abhishek did not look back. So far this young player has played 8 T20I matches and scored 159 runs. He played some good innings in the recently concluded Emerging Asia Cup, but not such that he could not come into the limelight. It is noteworthy that due to Border-Gavaskar Trophy, Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal will not be able to play in the T20 series against South Africa. Therefore, in his absence, Abhishek Sharma will open the innings with Sanju Samson. Meanwhile, while talking about the team combination, Aakash Chopra said that Abhishek Sharma is still yet to make his mark in international cricket. He also says that the upcoming series against South Africa could prove to be “do or die” for Abhishek Sharma, as Jaiswal and Gill will be available for the next T20 series against England. In such a situation, if he fails against South Africa, he will be out of the team. It’s do or die time for Abhishek Sharma – Aakash Chopra Aakash Chopra said on his YouTube channel, I think India has two or three big questions. There will be pressure on Abhishek Sharma and some pressure will also be on Sanju Samson. However, Sanju had scored a century in the last match. Therefore I would not say that there is any pressure on Sanju. He further said that, however, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill will be back, so whenever you get a chance to open, you should score a lot of runs. So it is important for them. This is do or die time for Abhishek Sharma, because after this when England T20 series will be played at home ground, if you do not score runs here then you will definitely be dropped. Let us tell you that Abhishek Sharma had scored a century against Zimbabwe at the beginning of the year, but since then he has been struggling with the bat. In the last four matches he has scored only 49 runs.
Before the start of BGT, Navjot Singh Sidhu gave big suggestions to Indian batsmen to deal with spin.
Navjot Singh Sidhu gave such suggestions to counter spin- Rohit Sharma & Navjot Singh Sidhu (Photo Source: The performance of Team India’s batsmen in the Test series against New Zealand was quite disappointing. The batsmen struggled against spin throughout the series and could not perform well even against the fast bowlers. India’s batting line-up faltered badly on the spinning pitches of Pune and Mumbai and the team scored 156,245, 263 and 121. Meanwhile, before the start of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, former Indian cricketer Navjot Singh Sidhu has revealed some techniques to help Indian players improve their game. Navjot Singh Sidhu gave these suggestions to counter spin Navjot Singh Sidhu’s old advice regarding playing spin has resurfaced, which is going viral on social media. He further added to this with a four-point “playbook” for the Indian batsmen while tweeting on social media on November 6. Navjot Singh Sidhu first advised to “move forward often to confuse the spinner’s mind, it will force him to guess”. He suggests that by moving forward on the pitch, batsmen can disrupt the bowler’s rhythm and foil his plans. His second point is “Point of No Return” – the point of the bowler’s delivery. “Make sure you move when it is at the point of no return (point of delivery). “It comes from instinct and hours of practice.” Playing spin on turning tracks – 1 stepping out often to the spinner to clutter his mind, keep him guessing…. 2 ensure that you step out when he is at a point of no return (point of delivery), it comes with instinct and hours of practice 3 watch his wrist like a hawk till the… — Navjot Singh Sidhu (@sherryontopp) November 6, 2024 Sidhu then continued his suggestion by asking the batsmen to look closely at their hands before throwing the ball. “Keep an eye on your wrist like a hawk till the end to code the delivery,” he said, adding that this will help batsmen understand which way the ball will turn and adjust their reaction accordingly. Lastly, Sidhu advised to have a little forward movement so that both front foot and back foot are ready to explore the shot. “A small initial forward movement allows you to adjust to playing the ball late and moving back and forth,” he explained, adding that committing too early can put the batsman in a precarious position. “Swoop or commit, and you are at the mercy of the bowler – like a dying duck in a storm,” he warned.
Ricky Ponting advised Babar Azam to follow Virat Kohli, gave a big reason
Babar was rested from the remaining two Test matches against England due to poor form. Virat Kohli and Babar Azam. (Photo by Michael Steele-ICC/ICC via Getty Images) Pakistan’s star batsman Babar Azam has been struggling with poor form for some time. Due to this poor form, he was rested from the two Test matches against England. He played in the first test match, but could not do anything special with the bat. Meanwhile, former Australian captain Ricky Ponting has advised Babar Azam to follow the footsteps of Virat Kohli. Let us tell you that Pakistan had to face defeat against England in the first Test match of the home Test series. After this, the host team won both the matches and won the series 2-1. Like Babar, Virat Kohli was also struggling with form in 2022, but 2023 was a great season for him. That’s why Ricky Ponting feels that Kohli can help Babar regain his form to some extent. Babar Azam has not scored any half-century in his last 18 test innings. He said in the ICC review, the biggest challenge is how they bring Babar back into their team. They have to find a way to get Babar back into form and back into their (Test) team. Maybe Babar needs to step away for a while and stop even trying. Close the kit bag for a while and think about something else. Then hopefully he will come back refreshed. He further said that, you know, when you look at Babar’s statistics, it is somewhat similar to what we were talking about earlier for Virat Kohli. Virat took a break from the game for some time and returned refreshed. Babar also needs the same thing. Hopefully, we will again see Babar like before in his career. Let us tell you that Babar Azam has not scored any half-century in his last 18 Test innings. Babar’s average in the last 9 Tests since the start of the 2023 season has been 20.70, which is very disappointing.

Let us tell you that both these players have been struggling with very poor form for some time. However, it is very important for these two players to give important performances for Team India in the upcoming 5-match Test series against Australia. This five-match Test series is starting from 22 November in Perth. If Team India wants to secure its place in the final of the World Test Championship, then it is very important for them to win about four matches of this Test series. According to Ian Chappell, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma may face a lot of trouble in Australian conditions. Ian Chappell said, ‘The only thing I would like to say is that Team India is coming after losing the Test series against Australia and New Zealand. The pitch in Australia is very good and extra bounce will also be seen there. It is very important for the batsmen of Team India to understand this thing. Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma may have to face problems due to extra bounce. Team India will need maximum runs from its best player: Mark Taylor Ian Chappell further said about Team India, ‘The performance of the team’s batsmen has been disappointing. I think Yashasvi Jaiswal is a very good young player and apart from him, Shubman Gill can also perform well. But you have Kohli and Rohit Sharma who have a lot of experience and at this time when people are talking so much about them, I think they can be seen performing well in the upcoming series. Regarding this, former player Mark Taylor said, ‘Team India has moved ahead with Pujara and Rahane. They have all Rohit and Kohli who are the best players in the world but the team is going through a very difficult situation at the moment and this has put pressure on the young players and also on the lower order players. You have to try to score as many runs as possible from your best player but this has not been seen at all from Team India in the last 12 to 18 months.

Ian Healy gave a surprising statement regarding Jake Fraser-McGurk, the aggressive opening batsman gave a befitting reply to the former player
Australia team is currently playing a three-match ODI series against Pakistan. Jake Fraser-McGurk (Image Credit- Twitter Australia’s explosive opening batsman Jake Fraser-McGurk’s aggressive batting style was heavily criticized by former player Ian Healy. Let us tell you that Jake Fraser-McGurk has batted brilliantly in domestic cricket so far but the young player has not been able to leave his mark in international cricket. Australia team is currently playing a three-match ODI series against Pakistan. The first ODI between these two teams was played at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in Melbourne in which Jake Fraser-McGurk scored only 16 runs. Ian Healy has criticized the batting approach of Jake Fraser-McGurk and Matthew Short and compared their batting to ‘schoolyard bullies’. Ian Healy told SEN: ‘The arrogance of the Australian players could not keep them ahead even for half an hour in the match. They are watching it like schoolyard cricket. The shot selection was very poor and both the openers played like ‘schoolyard bullies’. The investment the cricket board has made in them is looking very bad as both the players have batted disappointingly so far. We have been chosen to give an attacking start: Jake Fraser-McGurk Regarding Healy’s statement, Jake Fraser-McGurk said, ‘I don’t think so. The game is changing very quickly and if we start with a bang in the first 10 overs, the team can reach big scores. If we give a good start to the team, then the batsmen in the middle order will also get a lot of help and we can score big. I and Short can come on the field and play cricket in our own way and that is why we have been selected. We have got a place in the team so that we can give an aggressive start and put pressure on the bowlers of the opposing team. This is our plan as well as that of the team. Whatever way the management expects us to bat, we can show them the same performance.

The form of Rohit and Virat remains a matter of concern for the team before the upcoming Test series against Australia. Virat Kohli & Rohit Sharma (Photo Source: Getty Images) Both Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli had disappointing performances in the Test series against New Zealand, scoring 91 and 93 runs respectively in the series.

Virat will not face any problem with Australian pitches – K Srikanth K Srikanth believes that even though Virat has not played much big innings in the last few matches, he will not be troubled by the bounce provided by the Australian pitches. According to Times of India, K Srikanth said, “The best thing about Virat is his determination and hunger to achieve more. The bounce provided by Australian pitches is not something that should bother Virat. , The former player has asked Rohit Sharma to be more cautious. Recently, Rohit has had to struggle against fast bowlers. In the series against New Zealand, fast bowlers took his wicket four times out of 6. Srikanth also believes that Rohit’s signature pull shot can also become his weakness. The way he was in a hurry to mistime his favorite pull-shot. Even if you are an aggressive opening batsman, it is important to give yourself a little more time in the middle, especially in Australia. In Australia your strength can sometimes become your weakness. Rohit just needs to be a little careful.” India’s squad for BGT 2024-25- Rohit Sharma (captain), Jasprit Bumrah (vice-captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Abhimanyu Easwaran, Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant (wicketkeeper), Sarfaraz Khan, Dhruv Jurel (wicketkeeper), Ravichandran Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, Mohammed Siraj, Akash Deep, Prasidh Krishna, Harshit Rana, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Washington Sundar IND vs AUS: Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test Series Schedule First Test- 22-26 November, Perth, 7:50 am (Indian time) Second Test- 6-10 December, Adelaide, 9:30 am (Indian time) Third Test- 14-18 December, Brisbane, 9:30 am (Indian time) Fourth Test- 26-30 December, Melbourne, 5:00 am (Indian time) Fifth Test- 3-7 January, Sydney, 5:00 am (Indian time)

According to Sunil Gavaskar, Virat Kohli does not have any problem and luck is not favoring him at this time. Sunil Gavaskar and Virat Kohli. (Image Source: ICC/Twitter) The performance of Indian team’s best batsman Virat Kohli has been very poor for some time. The experienced batsman had failed to bat brilliantly in the recently concluded three-match Test series against New Zealand. This is the reason why New Zealand won the three-match Test series played against Team India by 3-0. However, now Team India has to play a five-match Test series against Australia, which is starting from November 22 in Perth. However, before the start of this Test series, former Indian player Sunil Gavaskar has presented his side regarding Virat Kohli. According to Sunil Gavaskar, Virat Kohli does not have any problem and luck is not favoring him at this time. According to Sports Tak, Sunil Gavaskar said, ‘Virat Kohli does not have any problem. Just this time luck is not on their side. We had seen how he batted in Bengaluru. His technique and art are right, he just needs luck at this time. Five-match test series between India and Australia starting from 22nd November If Team India wants to secure its place in the final of the World Test Championship, then it is very important for them to win the five-match Test series against Australia by a long margin. Virat Kohli failed to leave his mark in the Test series played against New Zealand. He was seen struggling a lot against the spinners. However, the experienced batsman would like to perform brilliantly against Australia and can be seen playing an important role in the victory of the Indian team. Currently, Team India is practicing vigorously for the upcoming Test series.
