“Pakistan has become a joke of cricket”- Former cricketer scolded players after losing to Bangladesh
After Pakistan’s bad defeat, Kamran criticized the team on his YouTube channel. He said that no one has learned anything from what has happened in Pakistani cricket in the last five years. He said, “It was because Rizwan scored 50 and moved the scoreboard, otherwise we would have lost by an innings. This is such a bad defeat that it will not be forgotten. If you think bad about someone, bad things will happen to you too. You have not learned anything in the last 5 years. You lost to Zimbabwe. You were out of the Asia Cup last year. Now you have been humiliated so much in the World Cup. Pakistan cricket has become a joke in the world.” Kamran has praised the Bangladesh cricket team for their excellent performance. He said that Bangladesh had to save the match and they not only did it but also won the match. He said, “This is a difficult time for Bangladesh, but their batsmen scored runs. They had to save the Test match, they not only saved it but also won the match. They opened up the wrist of Pakistani cricket. Our batsmen were batting like club cricketers. The approach of the Pakistani players was also very bad. The players were laughing in the dressing room. There was no seriousness because they knew that no one would ask anything.

If Mumbai Indians decide to release Rohit Sharma, then he has a plan ready for that as well. Bangar believes that Rohit will be in great demand and if he comes in the auction, he will get a good price. Punjab Kings (PBKS) will try to build a good team through the mega-auction. Also, the team needs an experienced captain like Rohit Sharma. In such a situation, if Rohit Sharma comes into the auction pool, then Punjab Kings will want to buy him at any cost. Punjab Kings have not got much success in IPL so far. In such a situation, the team is eyeing to build a strong team for the upcoming season. Sanjay Bangar gave a big statement about Rohit Sharma In a recent podcast, Sanjay Bangar was asked what Punjab Kings’ plans are if Mumbai Indians release Rohit Sharma. Bangar replied that their decision will depend on the amount of money they have available at the time of the auction. He also stressed that Rohit Sharma could be bought at a “very high price” if he is available. When Bangar was asked about Rohit Sharma on the RAO Podcast YouTube channel, he said, ‘It all depends on whether we have money in our pockets or not. If Rohit comes in the auction, I am sure he will be bought at a high price.’ Let us tell you, Mumbai Indians won the title a record 5 times under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma, however despite this, the MI management handed over the captaincy to Hardik Pandya in place of Rohit Sharma before IPL 2024. However, his decision proved wrong and the team was the first to be out of the playoff race.

Through a podcast, KL Rahul has said a lot about Sanjiv Goenka without naming him. KL Rahul gave a big statement regarding the owner of the IPL team KL Rahul said in Nikhil Kamat’s podcast, ‘The team owners in IPL come from a business background, they do a lot of research to select the players of the team, but this does not guarantee that you will win every match. You can select the best player according to the data, but it is possible that the year may go completely waste for that player, any player can have to go through bad days in the game.’ Meanwhile, different reports are coming about KL Rahul, where it is claimed that the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) team is currently in contact with this batsman and can go after him in the mega auction for IPL 2025. Talking about IPL 2024, KL Rahul is the most expensive player playing in IPL for India. KL Rahul’s salary is Rs 17 crore. At number two in this case is Rohit Sharma, who plays for Mumbai Indians and his salary is Rs 16 crore.
Virat Kohli should have spent a little more time as India Test captain: Sanjay Bangar
According to former India batting coach Sanjay Bangar, Virat Kohli should have remained the captain for some more time in Tests. Virat Kohli Test (Image Credit- Twitter) Indian team’s experienced batsman Virat Kohli is considered one of the best players in the world. Virat Kohli’s performance in international cricket has always been tremendous. Not only this, Kohli has also left his mark as a captain. Under the captaincy of Virat Kohli, India won the series in Australia. Not only this, India also won the Lord’s Test played in 2021. However, under the captaincy of Virat Kohli, the Indian team has not won a single ICC trophy. According to former India batting coach Sanjay Bangar, Virat Kohli should have remained the captain for a little longer in Tests. Let us tell you, in September 2021, Virat Kohli resigned from the post of captaincy of T20. Not only this, shortly after this, he withdrew his name from the post of captaincy of all formats of India. Speaking on The Rao Podcast, Sanjay Bangar said, ‘My personal belief is that Virat Kohli should have spent a little more time as Test captain. He should have captained India in a few more Test matches. I believe he had taken a decision on this matter long ago.’ The decision was not discussed in the right way: Virat Kohli Virat Kohli captained the Indian team in 68 Tests, out of which the team won 40 and their winning percentage was 58.82. Not only this, under the captaincy of Virat Kohli, the Indian fast bowlers also bowled lethally and maintained their pressure on the batsmen of the opposing team. Under his captaincy, the team confirmed its place in the final of the World Test Championship 2021. In 2022, Sourav Ganguly was the President of BCCI and he had said that the board had appealed to Kohli to captain the T20 team. He also said that Kohli had rejected this appeal and the selectors are not fully ready for two different captains for white ball cricket. However, later Virat Kohli made a big revelation about this. Virat Kohli had said, ‘Whatever was told that we had taken this decision together was not correct. When I decided to step down from the captaincy of the T20 team, I first went to the BCCI. I told them the reason behind it. I was not told at all that I have to step down from the post of T20 captaincy. I was completely sure about this. At that time I had also said that I can also captain the ODI and Test team, but the officials felt that I cannot take this responsibility. I had told my side and left the decision to them.’ Pakistan’s luck is bad, they have not won a Test match for 1294 days These 5 Indian cricketers are addicted to alcohol Shikhar Dhawan did this trick to win the ‘Golden Bat’ 5 big records of Shikhar Dhawan, in this case he is ahead of Kohli Shaheen Afridi became a father, his wife gave birth to…

(Image Source: Sportstar) Cheteshwar Pujara has been one of the important players of the Indian team in Test cricket. He has participated in many important matches in Test cricket on behalf of the Indian team. However, Cheteshwar Pujara has not been seen playing international cricket for a long time. He played his last match in the final of the World Test Championship against Australia.
