Robin Uthappa and Tarbaiz Shamsi (Image Credit- Twitter X) Former Indian cricket team wicketkeeper-batsman Robin Uthappa feels that South African spin bowler Tabrez Shamsi is going to leak runs in the big final match against India. It is worth noting that the final match of the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024 will be played today on Saturday, June 29 at Kingston Oval ground in Barbados. However, this statement given by Uthappa before this match regarding the in-form Tabrez Shamsi will definitely weaken his confidence. Let us tell you that Shamsi has taken a total of 11 wickets so far in the ongoing T20 World Cup and there is every possibility that he may not get a chance to play in the final playing eleven on a pitch conducive for batting. Robin Uthappa gave a big statement about Tabrez Shamsi Let us tell you that before the T20 World Cup final match between India and South Africa, while talking on Ravichandran Ashwin’s YouTube channel, Robin Uthappa said – As far as I am concerned, I will be very happy if Tabrez Shamsi plays, especially in Barbados, and if Bartman is playing, then I feel that we have to be a little careful. But out of these two, I would prefer Shamsi to play because I know he is going to give runs. Even if he takes wickets, it doesn’t matter to me. If we score 40-50 runs against him, then our job is done. Because with India’s batting approach, even if he takes wickets, it is not a big deal. On the other hand, if we talk about Shamsi, he has impressed with his performance so far. In South Africa’s Super 8 match, he bowled brilliantly against West Indies, taking 3 wickets for 27 runs and was also POTM. In Afghanistan’s semi-final match, he took 3 wickets giving away just 6 runs. It will be interesting to see how he will perform against India in the final match.
After the Youtube History leak, now this statement of Riyan Parag is going viral, “Just wait for 6 months and…”
When Riyan Parag was asked about his future plans after a great season, Parag gave a very positive statement. Riyan Parag (Image Credit- Twitter X) Riyan Parag has been playing IPL for Rajasthan Royals for the last several years but this season has been good for him. Rajasthan gave him a chance to bat at number four, where he proved himself. He has scored 573 runs in 16 matches this year. This season he scored 4 half-centuries, his average was 52.09, while his bat produced runs at a strike rate of 149.21. That is, he has already strengthened his claim for the Indian team. When Riyan Parag was asked what his future plans are after a great season, Parag said in a very positive way that he is confident that he will definitely play in Team India in the future. Let’s see what Riyan Parag said in the interview- “At some point, you have to have me in the team, right? So that is what I believe, I will definitely play for India. But I don’t really know when. Even when I was not scoring runs, I had said many times that I am going to play for India.” After this Riyan Parag further said that: “This is my belief in myself. This is not my ego. When I started playing cricket at the age of 10, this was my plan with my father (former Railways and Assam player Parag Das). Playing for Team India is a dream for me and it will definitely come true.” What is Riyan Parag’s mantra to overcome failure and follow the path of success” On this, Riyan Parag gave a very good answer and said- “You keep doing your work, it shouldn’t matter who is saying or thinking what.” When will Riyan Parag play for Team India? Riyan Parag said, ‘Whether it will be the next tour or a tour in six months or a tour in a year, I have not thought about when I will play. This is the job of the selectors. At present, the next mission of the Indian team is the T20 World Cup 2024. But after the World Cup, Team India will tour Zimbabwe. Whatever be the performance of the Indian team, it is believed that after the World Cup, many big players of the Indian team will be seen resting. In such a situation, uncapped star players of IPL are likely to get a chance. This includes names like Riyan Parag, Abhishek Sharma. Also read: Top 5 players who will be seen playing for India soon
