I think the one position India needs to improve is the No. 3 batting position: Mithali Raj

Let’s know what Mithali said Mithali Raj (Image Source: Twitter) The Indian women’s cricket team has lost to Sri Lanka by 8 runs in the final of the Women’s Asia Cup 2024. On the other hand, after this defeat, a big statement has come from the former captain of the team, Mithali Raj. It is worth noting that after the Women’s Asia Cup, now the Indian team has to participate in the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup to be held in October. So before the start of this multi-nation tournament, a big statement of Mithali Raj has come out. Mithali says that the area where the Indian team has to work before this big tournament is the number 3 batting position. Mithali Raj’s big statement came out Let us tell you that in a recent discussion with Star Sports, the former veteran batsman said – India is going to participate in the biggest ICC Women’s T20 World Cup in October. I think the area India should really focus on improving is the number 3 batsman position. They are still looking for the right batsman to go at number 3. They have tried D Hemalatha at this order and they have tried Uma Chhetri. Mithali further said- But ideally, this number should have such a batsman who can take forward the great start given by Shefali Verma and Smriti Mandhana. Also, the team needs to focus on other aspects of bowling, as this team is playing with only 5 bowlers. They probably need a sixth bowler, someone like an all-rounder who can bowl a few overs as well as bat. I think these are the areas India should improve on before taking part in the T20 World Cup.

MS Dhoni may be seen playing in IPL 2025, but BCCI will have to agree to this condition

A big news related to IPL 2025 is coming out. Some media reports have revealed that, if the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) allows 5-6 retentions before the mega auction, then former Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captain MS Dhoni may be seen playing in the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) season. After winning the IPL 2023 title as CSK captain, Dhoni underwent knee surgery. The same legendary wicket-keeper batsman surprised everyone as always by taking a bold decision ahead of the 2024 edition where he handed over the captaincy to Ruturaj Gaikwad. MS Dhoni can be seen playing in IPL 2025 MS Dhoni was also seen struggling with a knee injury in IPL 2024. He played all the matches with a knee injury and also did wicketkeeping. However, despite the pain, he batted and also won matches for his team. He scored 25 runs off 13 balls against Royal Challengers Bangalore in his last IPL match. But with the season ending, the question in everyone’s mind was whether Dhoni will play in the upcoming season or not. Whether Mahendra Singh Dhoni (MS Dhoni), who has won 5 trophies for Chennai Super Kings, will play in the upcoming season or not, the decision is in Mahi’s hands. However, a report has come out in Cricbuzz regarding this, which has surprised everyone. If the report is to be believed, Chennai Super Kings will retain Dhoni only if they get permission to retain 5-6 players in IPL. In such a situation, if MS Dhoni decides to play, then obviously CSK would want to include him in their team at any cost. However, Dhoni himself has not given any update so far on whether he will play in the upcoming season or not.

What is Diamond and Golden Duck Out? There is a lot of talk about it after India vs Sri Lanka match

There are 8 types of duck outs in cricket but in this article we will talk about 2 special duck outs which are Golden Duck Out and Diamond Duck Out Golden Duck out vs Diamond Duck out (Source Golden Duck out vs Diamond Duck out: Be it a street cricketer or an international cricket player, whenever they come to the crease to bat, everyone has this thought in their mind that they should not get “out on the first ball”.

Actually, there are 8 types of duck outs in cricket but in this article we will talk about 2 special duck outs which are Golden Duck out and Diamond Duck out. The question of golden duck out and diamond duck out arose in India vs Sri Lanka match In fact, in the second match of the 3-match T20 series played between India and Sri Lanka, Sri Lankan batsman Dasun Shanaka was out for the second consecutive time without opening his account. In the first match, he was run out without playing a ball, while in the second T20 match, he was out after playing 1 ball. Now in such a situation, there is a question in the minds of people that whether he got out on golden duck in both the matches or is it some other type of diamond duck out because he got out on zero in both the matches but he played 2 balls in one match and got out on the very first ball in one match. What is Golden Duck? When a batsman gets out on the very first ball, then it is called a golden duck out. Whereas, when a batsman gets out on the second ball without scoring any run, then it is called a silver duck out. That means Dasun Shanaka did not get a diamond but a golden and silver duck out.

Ishan Kishan got a bit into fashion and that is why he is not getting a place in the Indian team: Basit Ali

According to Basit Ali, Ishan Kishan diverted his attention from the game and started focusing more on fashion. Ishan Kishan (Photo Source: X/Twitter) Former Pakistani cricketer Basit Ali has recently given his opinion on the unavailability of excellent wicketkeeper batsman Ishan Kishan in the Indian team. According to Basit Ali, Ishan Kishan has shifted his focus from the game and started focusing more on fashion. Let us tell you, Ishan Kishan has not been seen playing for the Indian team for a long time. Kishan took a break from cricket after December 2023. After this, he also ruled himself out of India’s tour of South Africa and since then he has not been included in the team by the selectors.

He was also a little fashion conscious.’ Ishan Kishan participated in the Indian Premier League 2024 for Mumbai Indians and has not been seen on the cricket field since then.

He also said that the team should learn from the women’s cricket team who won the recently concluded Women’s Asia Cup 2024. Basit Ali said, ‘Sri Lanka does not deserve to qualify for the Champions Trophy. I think just like we have seen in the Pakistan team that all the players are focusing more on maintaining friendship, the same has been seen in the Sri Lankan team. My personal opinion is that the Sri Lankan women’s team performed better than them. The men’s team should learn from the women’s team how to have confidence in themselves.’ Currently, the Sri Lankan team is playing a three-match T20 series against India. Two matches have been played between these two teams and India has won both. Now the third and final T20 match between these two teams will be played on July 30 in Pallekele. 5 Australian players who scored half-century in their debut IPL match IPL 2024: These 11 foreign players took crores of rupees but flopped IPL 2024: 5 players who hit the most sixes in the 19th and 20th overs of IPL 5 fastest bowlers in IPL history Who are the head coaches of all 10 teams in IPL 2024?

“He should play whatever T20 cricket there is”- Ravi Shastri gives important advice to Hardik Pandya to improve his fitness

Former Team India head coach Ravi Shastri has advised Hardik Pandya to improve his fitness. He has asked Pandya to focus especially on bowling fitness. 30-year-old Hardik has had to struggle with injuries many times in his 8-year career. Last year, Hardik had to be out of the ODI World Cup midway due to an ankle injury. At the same time, Chief Selector Ajit Agarkar also cited Hardik’s fitness as the reason behind removing him from the T20 captaincy. In a conversation with ICC, Ravi Shastri has advised Hardik Pandya that he should play as many T20s as possible to make a comeback in the ODI team. Shastri said, “In my opinion, it is very important that he continues to play. I believe that match fitness is important. So he should play as much T20 cricket as possible. And if he is fit and feeling better, then he should also come in the ODI team.” Meanwhile, Shastri also stressed on Pandya bowling his full quota of overs in ODI cricket. He said, “If you have a player who is bowling only 3-4 overs instead of 10 overs in ODIs, it disturbs the balance of the team. If you bowl 7-8 overs in most of the matches and the way Pandya bats, it becomes a bonus for the team.” Hardik was sidelined from Test cricket in 2018 due to a back injury. He recovered without surgery and was included in the 2019 ODI World Cup squad, but the injury resurfaced later that year and he had to undergo surgery that year. He later returned to the field in 2021, but was included in the T20 World Cup squad only as a batsman, which cost the Indian team dearly. More recently, Hardik suffered an ankle injury during India’s fourth game in the ODI World Cup last year, which kept him away from cricket for a long time. He then returned as captain in IPL 2024 but his performance this season was very poor. He made a brilliant comeback in the T20 World Cup last month with a brilliant all-round performance, including the final match, where he dismissed the dangerous Heinrich Klaasen and then David Miller in the death overs to guide the team to victory.
