During a conversation on a show on Star Sports, Tushar Deshpande said, “You can talk about the cameos of Tushar Deshpande and Ajinkya Rahane, especially in the final.” I can say that these are players who do not have a good record in IPL, but when they go to Dhoni and Chennai, I wonder what happens to them, what kind of special guidance they get that everyone wants to play well. Starts. Dhoni has this quality which helps players to be fit, alert and play well for the team.” Now Irfan Pathan gave his opinion regarding MS Dhoni Former Indian all-rounder Irfan Pathan was also present in the discussion and talked about the difficulties that MS Dhoni might face as a captain in the IPL 2024 season. Deepak Chahar will be back in action, but his form may not be that good due to his return from injury. He said, “This time Deepak Chahar is coming back from injury, Pathirana’s performance for Sri Lanka has not been good, the form is also not very good, Conway has also got injured. Now if your 3 or 4 key players are injured or their form is not good then the challenge of team management becomes more difficult. So there is a challenge for MS Dhoni but since we know Dhoni is a mastermind, he will do something and manage as he does every year.”

Pathan also analyzed RCB’s fast bowling lineup, and stressed its importance on the batting-friendly Chinnaswamy pitch. Apart from this, Kaif spoke in detail about Virat Kohli’s form and RCB’s chances of reaching the playoffs. He stressed that despite the presence of other players like Green and Maxwell, Kohli’s consistency will be vital for the team’s success. Irfan Pathan and Mohammad Kaif gave a big statement about Virat Kohli On Star Sports show, Irfan Pathan said, “One thing I would like to say to the RCB fans is that people may say that the bowling line-up for the team is weak, at least it seems so, but the management of RCB has made a work done. He has included fast bowlers in his bowling line up. They have 3 fast bowlers who can bowl the ball at a speed of 140 km/h. So there is a possibility that on a pitch like Chinnaswamy, this pace could come in handy as his batting is really very strong. Mohammad Quaid talks about Virat Kohli’s return to form and how important it is for RCB to make the playoffs. He said, “Virat Kohli has been playing amazing cricket for the last 1-2 years, he is in good form. I remember during the Asia Cup when he scored a century against Afghanistan; Since then, he has not looked back. He has been in amazing form since then, and when a player like Virat Kohli is in form, he knows how to score runs in every match. He was also the best player of the tournament during the World Cup. So I think he will continue this amazing form.”

Cheteshwar Pujara also liked BCCI’s Test Incentive Scheme, praised the board profusely
After winning the England series, BCCI had announced the Test Incentive Scheme. Cheteshwar Pujara (Image Credit- Twitter Veteran batsman Cheteshwar Pujara lauded BCCI and its secretary Jay Shah for launching the Test Incentive Scheme to promote red-ball cricket in India. Let us tell you that, after the historic series win against England in Dharamshala, Shah had announced that the players who play Test cricket continuously for India will be given incentives by the board. After the introduction of this scheme, it is being said that cricketers can earn at least Rs 60 lakh per match by playing Test cricket. Pujara believes that this decision will encourage young cricketers to play more red-ball cricket as they will normally earn as much money, if not more, than in IPL or franchise cricket. Cheteshwar Pujara praised BCCI’s decision Pujara wrote on social media platform This will definitely reward and encourage those who perform for the country in the Test format!” Just got back from a refreshing trip with the family, and it is even more refreshing to see such a great initiative by @JayShah and @BCCI, It will surely reward and encourage those performing for the country in the purest format of the game! — Cheteshwar Pujara (@cheteshwar1) March 12, 2024 Let us tell you that the 36-year-old has played 103 Test matches for India, but after poor performance in a few series, he was dropped and Yashasvi Jaiswal was given preference before him. Since then, Pujara has played domestic cricket consistently and scored a lot of runs, but at the moment his return to Team India seems unlikely. However, considering his experience, the management can include him in the team for the upcoming Australia tour. India will play some test series before that. They are scheduled to host Bangladesh and New Zealand later this year but the BCCI has not confirmed the dates yet. Playing on home soil, the Rohit Sharma-led side will be confident of winning this series as well as winning two consecutive series can help India qualify for the WTC final for the third consecutive time.
