(Photo Source: Getty Images) Former Indian off-spinner and World Cup winner Harbhajan Singh has said that Team India will give first chance to Kuldeep Yadav as the third spinner to diversify India’s bowling attack in the upcoming Test series against England. However, meanwhile, the veteran spinner also explained why the team management could go with Akshar Patel before Kuldeep. India is set to play England in the much-awaited 5-Test series starting from January 25 in Hyderabad. R Ashwin, who is approaching 500 Test wickets, and Ravindra Jadeja are without a doubt the team’s first choice spinners. India has selected 4 spinners in its 16-member team. When England toured India for a 4-Test series in 2021, Axar Patel had a lot of success in his first series. The left-arm spinner took 27 wickets in his first 3 matches in Test cricket in that series. After being behind 1-0 in 2021, he played an important role in Team India winning the series 3-1. Harbhajan Singh gave a big statement regarding Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav Harbhajan Singh was quoted by PTI as saying, “From my point of view, when bowlers like R Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja are present in the team, then the third spinner should be a specialist bowler like Kuldeep. He further said, “Kuldeep is a wrist spinner and his presence will provide variety to the team. I believe that Akshar is selected in the Test team because of his batting skills. He can contribute something to the team with the bat at number eight or nine.” Harbhajan, however, raised questions on ignoring Kuldeep and said, “Akshar is a better batsman but I do not understand why you need a batsman at number nine. That too of a player who is exactly like Jadeja.” He said, “By this you are reducing the diversity in bowling. According to me, Kuldeep should play in the team.” Also read: England team is secretly afraid of Rohit’s army.

No matter how big a player you are, milestones will remain in your mind: Parthiv Patel

(Photo Source: Instagram) Former Indian cricket team opener Parthiv Patel has given a statement which has created quite a stir in the cricket fraternity. Parthiv says that no matter how big a player you are, records (milestones) always remain in your mind. It is noteworthy that the five-match Test series between India and England is about to start, the first match of which will be played from Thursday, January 25 at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium in Hyderabad. So in this series, experienced Indian bowler Ravichandran Ashwin can touch the figure of 500 wickets in Test cricket. Ashwin currently has 490 test wickets. Parthiv Patel gave a big statement Let us tell you that while doing the match preview on Jio Cinema regarding the Test series between India and England, when expert Parthiv Patel was asked what would you think if you were Ashwin, he said that I would also think the same. Zaheer Khan asked Parthiv how Ashwin’s mood was going to be during this Test series. So he said- This is a five-match Test series, and I want to tell you that it is important for Ashwin to take 10 wickets. But it is also important for someone else in the team to take wickets, because of the kind of form Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav have. If you talk about milestones, no matter how big a player you are, you will always have them in your mind. This is a huge accomplishment, and it doesn’t happen overnight. For this you work hard for 10-15 years and after that you reach here. There are very few cricketers who are able to achieve this position. Also I think Ashwin will not need more than 2 Test matches to reach there.

“He gives me many suggestions, which are invaluable for me”- Mukesh Kumar told the secret of his success

Meanwhile, even though he has performed well with the red ball, the white ball has troubled Mukesh in the past. Speaking about the same, the cricketer said that India’s star fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah keeps giving him advice on yorkers and other essentials, which is extremely ‘invaluable’ to him. Whatever suggestion Bumrah Bhai gives me is invaluable for me- Mukesh Kumar Speaking to The Telegraph India, Mukesh Kumar said, “Bumrah bhai keeps giving me advice especially on yorkers. He says, ‘You bowl very good yorkers. Whatever you are doing, just keep doing it. We talk quite regularly and he also gives me other tips, which are obviously invaluable.” In the second Test against South Africa in Cape Town in 2024, Mukesh took four wickets as India won the match by seven wickets. Speaking about the camaraderie between the bowlers, the fast bowler revealed that every bowler has a different role in the team and said that Bumrah asked him to bowl a lot of dot balls to put pressure on the African team. Mukesh Kumar said, “The process is very similar to what I, Akash (Deep) and Ishan Porel used to do in Bengal. Here we also discuss our respective roles: who will attack all-out and who will focus on keeping things tight with the first overs. In Cape Town, Bumrah bhai was telling me to keep bowling dot balls because it will increase the pressure on him (in the second innings).
