Speaking to ANI, Graeme Smith said, ‘Looking at the amount of cricket the Indian team plays, it can be said that it is important to give rest to all the players from time to time and new players should also be given a chance. We have seen that many young players from India perform very well in the IPL and they have left their mark in the T20 format as well. I think the coach and selection panel should understand what the players need and what kind of players they need on which pitches. It is not so easy to select players with the kind of talent India has: Graeme Smith The former South African captain further said, ‘India has no dearth of talent and that is why they face a lot of difficulty in selecting players. According to me, along with the experienced players, some young players should also be included and only then the team will perform well. Let us tell you, Rohit and Virat had earlier played a T20 match against Australia in the World Cup. Afghanistan has also announced its team for this tour. Now it remains to be seen whether Afghanistan can give competition to India in its own backyard or not?

Whereas on a turning pitch you have to go ahead and bat. The batsman should know how to play all types of shots. Our media should also write about this: Sunil Gavaskar Sunil Gavaskar further said, ‘Our media should also write about this. But the problem is that our media does interviews with the players and that is why they cannot see anyone sad. This is the reason why he does not question the ability of foreign players.
