Kohli was able to score only 23 runs in two innings in the first test match against Bangladesh. Hanuma Vihari and Virat Kohli (Image Credit- Twitter The form of former Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli has remained a matter of concern in the biggest format of the game in recent times. At the same time, even in the ongoing Test series against Bangladesh, Virat’s bat appeared silent. In the first Test match played against Bangladesh at MA Chidambaram Stadium, Virat’s bat scored only 6 runs in the first innings and only 17 runs in the second innings. Although, he was set in the second innings, but was out LBW due to a wrong shot. On the other hand, now a big statement from former Indian cricketer Hanuma Vihari has come out regarding Virat’s form. Vihari feels that Virat is going to make a spectacular comeback in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy to be held in Australia. Hanuma Vihari gave a big statement regarding Virat Kohli Let us tell you that in a recent interview given to Times Now, Hanuma Vihari said about Virat’s form – I will not call it important, Virat Kohli just needs to be in a good mindset. I know he has not played Test cricket for some time. Vihari further said- Due to his personal commitments he could not play the entire England Test series. But coming back to Test after some time, it takes time to get your rhythm back and get that mental space and get that routine back. India should not be worried about Virat’s form, because we know that when the real test comes, he will survive. From this statement given by Hanuma Vihari, you can guess that Virat’s form is not a matter of concern. When the time comes, runs will start coming easily from Virat’s bat. Well, now it will be interesting to see how Kohli is going to perform in the second test match against Bangladesh in Kanpur?

Anil Chaudhary’s big statement, said- MS Dhoni can become a good umpire, provided he…
He (Dhoni) is close to accuracy: Anil Chaudhary MS Dhoni and Anil Chaudhary (Image Credit- Twitter Hardly anyone understands the game of cricket better than former Indian captain and finishing master MS Dhoni. Dhoni’s mind remains very calm on the cricket field, and what to say about the cleanliness of his mind and gloves behind the wicket. Before retiring from cricket in the year 2020, Dhoni was known for changing the game from behind the wicket. So whenever Dhoni would take a DRS call, there was a high probability that the decision would come in Dhoni’s favour. Many cricket fans also fondly call DRS as Dhoni Review System, because Dhoni’s accuracy in it was very good. On the other hand, now Indian umpire Anil Chaudhary has made a big statement praising Dhoni. Chaudhary has praised Dhoni’s decision-making ability and said that he can become a very good umpire. Anil Chaudhary made a big statement about MS Dhoni Let us tell you that recently while talking on Shubhankar Mishra’s YouTube channel, Anil Chaudhary said about DRS – it is not always like this, sometimes it is the opposite, but he (MS Dhoni) is close to accuracy. He has a lot of ideas about the game. Many times he stops others from appealing. He can become a good umpire, provided he is ready to stay inside the field for seven hours. Chaudhary further said about Rishabh Pant- Rishabh Pant has also improved a lot from before. It is all about experience. You watch the replays and then re-evaluate your call. The wicketkeeper has the best place to keep an eye, they are stationary and can see the ball coming. In fact, the best umpires sometimes decide their decisions from the actions of the wicketkeepers as they follow the ball.
“He has done a good job as captain of LSG…”, said Jonty Rhodes about KL Rahul
The way he leads the team and the kind of setup and approach he has is fantastic – Jonty Rhodes KL Rahul & Jonty Rhodes (Photo Source: Under the captaincy of KL Rahul, Lucknow Super Giants performed brilliantly in the first two seasons and made it to the playoffs. But the performance of the franchise in IPL 2024 was disappointing, the team finished seventh with seven wins in 14 matches, 14 points. Before the IPL 2025 auction, there are reports that the franchise may release KL Rahul. Let us tell you, last season, after the defeat in the match against Sunrisers Hyderabad, there was a tussle between owner Sanjeev Goenka and Rahul on the field. However, Sanjeev Goenka has dismissed all speculations and called KL Rahul an integral part of the team and his family. Meanwhile, LSG fielding coach Jonty Rhodes has made a big statement praising Rahul’s captaincy and approach. Jonty Rhodes said a big thing about KL Rahul’s captaincy Jonty Rhodes, while speaking on India Today, said, I think if you look at the record as a captain of a new franchise, reaching the playoffs every time, as he has done. That is something that means a lot to his captaincy. The way he leads the team and the kind of setup and his approach is fantastic. Speaking further, Jonty Rhodes said, Look at Rohit and Dhoni’s record as captains, the trophies they have won and the consistency they have shown to win trophies. From LSG’s point of view, reaching the final, winning the trophy, it can be just one thing. Mumbai Indians are one of the most successful IPL franchises with five titles, but the team had to struggle for many years to win the first title. The franchise won the first title in 2013. Jonty Rhodes believes that Lucknow Super Giants are also struggling just like Mumbai right now.
Good days have returned for Sri Lanka cricket, these three positive things happened for the Lankan team amidst the series win
Sri Lanka won the bilateral series against India after 27 years. Srilanka Cricket (Pic Source-X) Sri Lanka defeated India by 110 runs in the third ODI played on 7 August and won this spectacular series by 2-0. Sri Lankan players performed very well in this entire series. Not only this, Sri Lanka won the bilateral series against India after 27 years. The best thing for Sri Lanka in this ODI series was that their spinners bowled very well and put pressure on the Indian team’s batsmen. India’s batsmen failed to make a mark in this series. The Sri Lankan team will be very happy with its performance. With this, today we tell you about three positive things that were seen in this historic ODI series win for Sri Lanka. 1- Strength in the top order Avishka Fernando (Pic Source-X) In this series, there was a lot of pressure on the top 3 batsmen of Sri Lanka because the team’s performance against the Indian bowlers has been very poor in the recent past. However, in this ODI series, the trio of Avishka Fernando, Pathum Nissanka and Kusal Mendis batted very well and did not lose their wickets quickly against the Indian bowlers. In the first two ODIs, one of these three batsmen batted for about 20 to 25 overs and scored runs consistently for the team. In the third and final ODI, all three batsmen troubled the Indian team’s fast bowlers a lot. In the third ODI, Avishka Fernando played a match-winning innings of 96 runs while Kusal Mendis scored 59 runs. Pathum Nissanka played an innings of 45 runs.
‘I think our batsmen are also good bowlers’, says interim bowling coach Sairaj Bahutule amid Sri Lanka tour
Many Indian batsmen have been seen bowling on the Sri Lanka tour. Sairaj Bahutule (Image Credit- Twitter X) The Indian cricket team is currently on a tour of Sri Lanka. So, during this tour of the Indian team, a big statement has come from Sairaj Bahutule, who is playing the role of interim bowling coach for this tour. Bahutule has also described the batsmen of the Indian team as good bowlers. It is worth noting that a three-match ODI series is currently going on between India and Sri Lanka. While Shubman Gill was seen bowling in the first ODI match, Rinku Singh and new T20 captain Suryakumar Yadav were also seen bowling in the third T20 match. Sairaj Bahutule gave a big statement Let us tell you that after the end of the first ODI match between India and Sri Lanka on August 2, Sairaj Bahutule said during the post-match, as quoted by India Today – I think our batsmen are also good bowlers. Their first skill is batting, so they do not focus much on bowling, but they have the skill, the more they practice, the better they will do. Bahutule further said- We saw this during the T20 series, the way Rinku Singh and Suryakumar Yadav played an important role in the team’s victory by contributing in bowling. Similarly, Shubman Gill was given the ball in this ODI match. Seeing this, it seems that in the coming time it is going to be completely an all-rounder’s game. On the other hand, if we tell you about the ongoing three-match ODI series between India and Sri Lanka, the first ODI match has ended in a tie. Now the second match between the two teams will be played on Sunday, 4th August at R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo. It will be interesting to see which team wins this match?
“It is good that he retired…” Who is Yogesh Patel who gave this statement about Rohit Sharma?
Rohit Sharma has joined MS Dhoni, Sourav Ganguly and Kapil Dev as one of the few Indian captains to win an ICC trophy. (Source X) Rohit Sharma couldn’t have ended his T20 career better than this. At the age of 37, Rohit gave himself two chances to win the ICC trophy last year, but he finished second both times. India finished runners-up in the ODI World Cup and the ICC World Test Championship. He could have ended his career without an ICC trophy. However, luck favoured him and Rohit led India to victory in the 2024 T20 World Cup and ended his trophy drought. In many knockout matches in the last 11 years, the team was knocked out of the knockout stage under extreme pressure, but this time Team India crossed the finish line. Rohit has become one of the Indian captains to win the ICC trophy along with MS Dhoni, Sourav Ganguly and Kapil Dev. Who is Yogesh Patel? 25 years ago, Rohit took admission in Swami Vivekananda International School. The school’s director Yogesh Patel gave Rohit a freeship so that he could study in his school. Patel has given some statements in an exclusive interview to India Today. A memorable ending for Rohit Sharma Needless to say, Rohit was nearing the end of his career. But his decision to retire from T20 came as a surprise to many. He had scored 257 runs in eight innings at an average of 36.71. His 92-run innings against Australia was specialespecially when he hit fours off Mitchell Starc. According to Patel, Rohit made the right decision to say goodbye to his T20 career. He said that instead of retiring under pressure due to other reasons, he made the right decision to retire in a grand manner. ‘Rohit knows what he has to do’ – Patel “It was a surprise and shock for us and the whole country because everyone wanted to see Rohit as captain; if not captain, then as a player. But when he announced his retirement, I felt it was a good decision because he was at the top. He is very smart, and he is also mature and talented. So, he knows what he has to do.” Will return in ODI format After winning the T20 World Cup, Rohit will be back to play for India in the ODI series against Sri Lanka in July. If Rohit is to win another ICC trophy, he will have to wait for about 12 more months, provided India reach the WTC final. The ODI World Cup seems a bit far-fetched as Rohit will be past 40 by then. But regardless of the results, Rohit will go down as one of India’s greatest captains.
