On the other hand, now the news is coming that if Wood wants to recover from this injury soon, then he will have to completely stop using his right hand. The veteran cricketer said that he has been advised not to lift his children with his right hand. Mark Wood’s pain in the throat Let us tell you that recently Mark Wood said on BBC’s special program Test Match Special – I can’t really do much with my right hand. I have been told to stop lifting my children with my right hand. I have to do everything with my left hand. Wood further said about the elbow injury- It was a different kind of injury. I had some pain in my back, and I got scans done due to a strain in the elbow, which is not uncommon for fast bowlers. I thought maybe I would need an injection and I would be fine, but they scanned the elbow and found a strain. I was probably playing with it so much that it happened. Mark Wood would like to make a comeback during the limited overs series of India tour Regarding Mark Wood’s injury, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has confirmed that he wants to regain full fitness by early 2025. He is targeting England’s white ball tour of India and the ICC Champions Trophy in Pakistan, which will start in February 2025.

(Photo by Matthew Lewis-ICC/ICC via Getty Images) Australia’s performance in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 was very poor and the team could not make it to the semi-finals. Australia had to face defeat against Afghanistan and India in the Super 8. Now Australia has to play T20 series against England and Scotland. Cooper Connolly has been included in the Australian team for the first time for this tour. Let us tell you, in the Big Bash League 2023, this young player played an aggressive innings of 25 runs in 11 balls for the Perth Scorchers and won the hearts of all the fans. Cooper Connolly has 15 T20 experiences in domestic cricket. Recently this young player made a big revelation about his selection in the international team. According to Cooper Connolly, he himself was quite surprised when his name was taken. However, if the young player gets a chance, he would definitely want to leave his mark in it. According to cricket.com.au, Cooper Connolly said, “I was not able to sit in one place at all. I was only able to walk for 10 to 15 minutes and it was a shocking time for me. It feels very good that I performed well for Perth Scorchers and Western Australia. Because of this, my confidence also increased a lot overnight but I had never experienced such a thing in international cricket. There are some quality players like Travis Head in the team and I would like to learn a lot from them. If I get a chance, I would like to use it as much as possible.” George Bailey gives his take on Cooper Connolly George Bailey said about this young player, ‘Cooper Connolly has performed very well in the middle order for Perth. Not only this, he can also bowl spin and can bat anywhere between number four to number 7. If you look at our T20 team, Matthew Wade and Marcus Stoinis have performed very well at the top. Not only this, both these players have also played the role of finisher very well. I think Copper also has the same ability and the young players can perform brilliantly in the upcoming series. 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?

According to Gary, Babar Azam himself has put a lot of burden on his shoulders in international cricket. However, now Gary wants Babar Azam to play his natural game so that Pakistan cricket team gets better results in the upcoming big tournaments. Gary Kirsten gave a big statement regarding Babar Azam Let us tell you that before taking over the coaching of Pakistan cricket team, in an interview given to Talksport, Gary Kirsten said – Dependence on Babar is not right for any player. He should not feel that he has to contribute for the team every time while batting. I am currently in touch with him and he has performed well, but the weight of the team is on his shoulders. Gary further said – What we will try to do as a coaching staff is to step it up a bit and make him feel that he is one of the whole group of players. I want him to play his natural game. We hope that we will get to see innings like Ireland from his bat. I think if we free him, he can make an important contribution in T20 cricket, especially in winning matches. On the other hand, if we give you information about Pakistan cricket team, now it will be seen playing a four-match T20 series against England from May 22. It will be worth seeing how Babar is going to perform with the bat against England?

However, the young Australian player Jake Fraser-McGurk, who scored a half-century in 15 balls in the IPL, has not been included in this team. Apart from McGurk, Australia’s legendary batsman Steve Smith has also not got a place in this team. On the other hand, recently Jack Fraser McGurk has given a big statement regarding his not being selected for the T20 World Cup. McGurk says he hasn’t earned it yet. Jake Fraser-McGurk gave a big statement Let us tell you that regarding his non-selection in the Australian team in the upcoming T20 World Cup, McGurk said on the Willow Talk podcast – The conversation with the selection committee was good. You can look at this in two ways. Firstly, I have proved myself for selection in the last one month, and secondly, one and a half month ago I was not even in the picture of selection. He had a good idea a month and a half ago about what kind of team he had to make and what the team combination should be. It was difficult to fit into this combination. Right now we have David Warner, who is a great player in all three formats. Also there is Travis Head who is doing a great job here (IPL). McGurk further said- If I get a place as a reserve player, it will be very good for me, because I can get a lot of experience with the team there. This didn’t bother me too much because I was not in such a situation. I don’t think I’ve earned that yet. World Cup cricket and franchise cricket are quite different.
