‘Please learn something from India’, Basit Ali appeals to Pakistan team management
The former cricketer’s statement came after India’s win against Bangladesh by 86 runs. Basit Ali (Photo Source: X/Twitter) There was a time when the teams of India and Pakistan were considered to be at the same level in cricket. While Pakistan had an arsenal of fast bowlers, India had a long list of batsmen. However, if we look at the development of cricket between the two countries in the current perspective, India has gone far ahead of Pakistan. It is noteworthy that after losing the World Cup 2023, India made a spectacular comeback and won the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024. On the other hand, after playing the final of the 2022 T20 World Cup, Pakistan has not been able to perform well in any ICC tournament. Pakistan had to be eliminated from the T20 World Cup 2024 after losing to a team like USA. So when Bangladesh defeated Pakistan for the first time in a two-match Test series at their home, Pakistan cricket received a lot of criticism in the cricket world. On the other hand, looking at Pakistan’s performance in the ongoing first Test match against England at Multan Cricket Stadium, it seems that it will lose this match. So now a big statement of former Pakistani cricketer Basit Ali has come out regarding Pakistan’s performance. Basit says that Pakistan should learn something from India. Basit Ali gave a big statement Let us tell you that regarding this poor performance of Pakistan cricket team, Basit Ali said through a video uploaded on his YouTube channel – Thought process is very important, which is lacking in Pakistan cricket. India gave break to Shubhman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal, but no one is given break in our team. Please learn something from India. Basit further said regarding the India vs Bangladesh second T20 match – The kind of sixes that Nitish (Reddy) hit should not be called six but aathe (powerful shot in Urdu). And then Rinku Singh is Michael Bevan after all. Gautam Gambhir’s thinking has been successful, I am not saying that he will win the World Cup directly. Even if they flop, Gautam will not stop supporting them, because he selects players and develops them. This is the best example of this.
Aakash Chopra slammed the management for the continuous changes in the batting lineup of the Indian team during the Sri Lanka tour
India performed poorly in the ODI series and were defeated by Sri Lanka 2–0. Aakash Chopra (Photo Source: Twitter) India’s tour of Sri Lanka ended on 7 August. In this tour, India clean swept Sri Lanka 3-0 in the T20 series. However, India’s performance in the ODI series was quite poor and Sri Lanka defeated them 2-0. Under the coaching of Gautam Gambhir, the Indian team could not perform well in the ODI format. In this ODI series, it was seen that a lot of changes have been made in the batting lineup of the Indian players. Former player Aakash Chopra put forward his point of view regarding this. In the T20 series, Suryakumar Yadav, Rinku Singh and Riyan Parag also bowled very well and took important wickets for their team. However, in this tour, the players of the Indian team failed to bat well. Aakash Chopra said on his official YouTube channel, ‘Number four has now become a revolving door as we have given batting order to different players in every match. What is the idea of making a player like KL Rahul bat at number 6 or number seven? Why don’t you fight from the beginning? In India, KL Rahul was included in the playing XI for only two matches and then he was dropped. It was really surprising to see this because KL Rahul was in his plans since 2023. This is also because no one else had scored more runs than him in the middle order since 2023. Number four has now become a matter of concern for the Indian team Let us tell you, in the first ODI match played between India and Sri Lanka, Washington Sundar batted at number four but he scored only five runs. After this, Shivam Dubey was given this important responsibility in the second ODI but he could not even open his account and India lost the match. In the third and final ODI match, Rishabh Pant was included in the team and was given batting at number four but he returned to the pavilion after scoring good runs. The Indian team will have to give a chance to such a player in this order as soon as possible, who can bat well at number four and win the hearts of all the fans. 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?

(Image Source: Getty Images) Mohammed Shami has been away from cricket since the World Cup 2023. Team India’s fast bowler Mohammed Shami is trying to get fit again and make his debut in the team. Mohammed Shami was seen playing in the last ODI World Cup. He performed brilliantly in that tournament and took 24 wickets in the ODI World Cup and finished the tournament as the highest wicket-taker. But then after that Mohammed Shami had heel surgery last year. Shami did not even play in the series against Australia after heel surgery. Nor was he in the T20 World Cup 2024 team. After this, recently a video of Shami practicing bowling in the nets has surfaced. Mohammad Shami’s interview went viral Mohammed Shami expressed his views on the team management’s decision to keep him on the bench during crucial stages of the tournament in the 2019 edition during an interview on Shubhankar Mishra’s YouTube show ‘Unplugged’. Let us tell you that Virat Kohli was the captain of Team India for the 2019 World Cup and Ravi Shastri was the head coach. Reflecting on the 2019 World Cup, Shami said- “In 2019 I didn’t play the first 4-5 games. In the next game, I took a hattrick, then a five-wicket haul and then a four-wicket haul. The same thing happened in 2023. I missed the first few games and then took a fifer, then a four-wicket haul and then a five-wicket haul.” Let us tell you that he was included in the playing eleven only after all-rounder Hardik Pandya was ruled out due to injury. Shami further said, “One thing I keep thinking is that every team needs players who can perform well. I took 13 wickets in three matches. What do you expect from me now?” Let us tell you that, during the 2019 edition, despite taking 14 wickets in four matches, he was benched for the final league match against Sri Lanka and the semi-final against New Zealand, which India lost by 18 runs. Shami further said on this- “I neither have questions nor do I have answers. I can only prove myself when I get a chance. You gave me a chance and I took 13 wickets in three matches. Then we lost to New Zealand.”
“I don’t believe in injury and workload management”- Gautam Gambhir created a sensation with this statement as soon as he became the head coach
Team India is scheduled to travel to Sri Lanka next month for the ODI and T20I series. Gautam Gambhir (Photo Source: X) For the first time after becoming the head coach of Team India, Gautam Gambhir has given his statement on the injury and workload management of the players. But the statement given by Gambhir on this may irritate those players who often get injured. In the present times, looking at the way cricket is being played every day, injury management and workload management of the players are often mentioned. However, it is believed that after Gambhir becomes the head coach, some big changes will be seen in Indian cricket, the biggest change of which will be that the players will not get the break they want. Team India has to tour Sri Lanka next month to participate in the ODI and T20 International series and this will be the first assignment of head coach Gautam Gambhir. Gautam Gambhir gave a big statement regarding injury and workload management Just before the start of the Sri Lanka series, Gambhir has clearly said that if a player gets injured, he can recover and make a comeback, but he will not be given breaks repeatedly in the name of injury and workload management. Team India’s new head coach Gautam Gambhir said on Star Sports, ‘Look, I have a strong belief in one thing that if you can play, then you should play in all three formats. I have never believed in injury management, if you get injured, go and recover, it’s as simple as that. When you play international cricket, you should do as much as you can. If you ask any top player, they want to play all three formats. They don’t want the tag of a red ball bowler or a white ball bowler. Injuries are a part of any player’s career, if you play all three formats and get injured, you can go back and recover and come back into the team. You should play all three formats, I don’t believe much in keeping some players just for Tests, that we will manage his injury, we will manage his workload. Look, as a professional cricketer your career is very short, you are playing for your country, so you should play as much as you can. If you are in very good form, then play all three formats.
“To remove me from the team…” What did Nitish Rana say about KKR management after returning after 10 matches?
“I’ve been playing for two years and I’ve never had an injury like this and I never realized how hard I can go after an injury. But it’s really sad, it happened to me for the first time. I want to thank my franchise, I don’t think any other team would have supported me so much because it is really tough for your team to miss ten games and many people start looking for replacements. Big thanks to the KKR team and staff who believed in me to come back after so many matches and helped me make an impact.” Kolkata Knight Riders have qualified for IPL playoffs In the IPL points table, Kolkata Knight Riders have qualified for the IPL playoffs with 18 points with 9 wins out of 12 matches and are sitting at number 1.

‘It’s a delicate balance’ Stephen Fleming gave a big statement regarding MS Dhoni’s workload management in IPL
Chennai is going to face Gujarat today on 10th May. Stephen Fleming and MS Dhoni (Image Credit- Twitter) In the IPL 2024 match against Punjab Kings in Dharamshala, former Chennai Super Kings captain and veteran batsman MS Dhoni came to bat at number 9. There was a lot of discussion in the cricket world about Dhoni batting at this number. However, the fans did not understand why Dhoni, who scored 110 runs in the ongoing IPL season at a strike rate of 225.48 in 49 balls, came to bat at this number in this match. So the former cricketers had even said that if Dhoni has to bat at this number then he should retire from IPL. So now Chennai Super Kings team head coach Stephen Fleming has broken his silence and given a big statement regarding this issue. Fleming says that this has been seen only because of his workload. It is noteworthy that against Punjab, Dhoni was bowled by Harshal Patel on the very first ball. Stephen Fleming gave a big statement regarding MS Dhoni’s workload Let us tell you that in the pre-match conference held in Ahmedabad before Chennai’s match against Gujarat, Stephen Fleming said about Dhoni – We are managing his workload. It’s risky, and a delicate balance. At the beginning of the season we saw that he was taking risks while batting even due to a muscle strain. We could have lost him for the entire tournament. Fleming further said – We are just trying to manage how he can impact the match by just hitting sixes and fours. So far he has done this very well. This is the best for us in the competition.

IND vs ENG: Team management will give another chance to Rajat Patidar to save his test career
However, despite having uncapped Devdutt Padikkal in their team, India may reportedly give Rajat Patidar another chance for the fifth Test against England in Dharamsala. A BCCI source was quoted by the Indian Express as saying,“The team wants Patidar to get another chance because they feel Patidar has the talent and it is only a matter of time before he scores runs. Since India has already won the series, the team wants to try Devdutt Padikkal once more instead of giving him a debut. BCCI had recently announced that KL Rahul has not yet fully recovered from his quadriceps injury and will not be able to play the last Test of the series. Due to Rahul’s absence, Patidars have been getting more opportunities and the same can be seen in Dharamshala. Team India’s squad for the fifth test match against England Rohit Sharma (captain), Jasprit Bumrah (vice-captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, Rajat Patidar, Sarfaraz Khan, Dhruv Jurel (wicketkeeper), KS Bharat (wicketkeeper), Devdutt Padikkal, R Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohd. Siraj, Mukesh Kumar and Akash Deep
No matter what happens, Ishan Kishan will not play for Team India for a year, the team management has conspired
India’s young wicketkeeper batsman Ishan Kishan has not been seen playing for the national team for a long time. Ishan Kishan (Pic Source-Twitter) The Indian team is currently playing a five-match Test series against England. Ishan Kishan has not been seen playing for the Indian team in this test series. Let us tell you, India’s young wicketkeeper batsman Ishan Kishan has not been seen playing for the national team for a long time. Ishan Kishan was last included in the Indian team for the ICC ODI World Cup 2019. He played only two matches in this entire tournament but the young player left his mark in this tournament with his batting. After the ICC ODI World Cup 2019, the Indian team toured T20 series against Australia and South Africa. Ishan Kishan was neither seen playing in the T20 series played against Australia nor in the South Africa tour. The question that is arising in the minds of many people is why Ishan Kishan is not being given a chance in the national team. Not only this, in place of Kishan, other young players have been included in the Indian team as wicketkeeper batsmen. Then senior sports journalist Abhishek Tripathi has made a big revelation regarding this. Abhishek Tripathi recently revealed on Cricket Gyan that he was told by a BCCI official that Ishan Kishan will not be seen playing for the Indian team for 1 year. Here’s the video: Team management is doing all the work of Ishan Kishan, @cricketgyann But a shocking revelation@rajeevmish @abhishereporter #IshanKishan #BCCI #TeamIndia #RohitSharma #ViratKohli #IPL2024 #cricketnews #cricketupdates #Cricketgyan — Cricket Gyan (@cricketgyann) February 10, 2024 Abhishek Tripathi said, ‘Things were going well with Ishan Kishan till the Asia Cup, but after that suddenly KL Rahul and Shreyas Iyer entered the team, who before that were recovering from their injuries in NCA. Despite this, Ishan Kishan was given some chances but as soon as the ICC ODI World Cup 2023 ended, BCCI completely ignored Ishan Kishan. I don’t even know what is the main reason behind this but it did not go well with the young player. Recently I met a BCCI official who told me that Ishan Kishan will not return to the Indian team for 1 year. I don’t understand why other players like KS Bharat and Jitesh Sharma are being included in the team instead of giving a chance to Ishan Kishan. KL Rahul was the first choice as wicketkeeper in your England tour but in the press conference, Rahul Dravid said that we will include him in the team only as a batsman. KS Bharat has been played as wicketkeeper in two Tests so far. A big mistake made by Ishan Kishan was that he refused to play in Ranji Trophy. Now apart from this, if he wants to perform well and make a comeback in the Indian team, then he will have to show his strength in the IPL itself. Ishan Kishan should have made himself available for Ranji Trophy. 5 teams that have won the Under 19 World…
“Where is Avesh Khan after all….”- Cricket commentator Aakash Chopra raised questions on Indian management
The team recently went for the T20 World Cup and Avesh Khan was in the reserves. Where is Avesh Khan after that?- Aakash Chopra Avesh Khan and Aakash Chopra (Photo Source: X/Twitter) Indian young fast bowler Avesh Khan got a place in the team in the Zimbabwe tour, he also took 6 wickets in three T20 matches. But then he did not get a place in the squad for both the white-ball series of the Sri Lanka tour. Meanwhile, former Indian player Aakash Chopra is venting his anger on the Indian management. Chopra says that if BCCI wants to invest in Avesh Khan, then they will have to give him opportunities. Avesh should have been on the Sri Lanka tour- Aakash Chopra Cricket commentator Aakash Chopra, while talking on his YouTube channel, said, This is a good question because the team recently went for the T20 World Cup and Avesh Khan was in the reserves. Where is Avesh Khan after that? If we want to invest in him then Avesh Khan should have been there. He should have been there on the Sri Lanka tour and should have played matches in Zimbabwe as well, where was he – nowhere to be seen. Prasidh Krishna has the potential to become a good bowler- Aakash Chopra Aakash Chopra has expressed his desire to see fast bowler Prasidh Krishna in the T20 format. He also stressed that even though Prasidh Krishna is an expensive bowler, he has the potential to become a great bowler in the T20 format. Let us tell you that Prasidh Krishna was part of the Indian squad in the ODI World Cup 2023. After the tournament, he played a few more matches for India. But he got injured while playing for Karnataka in the Ranji Trophy. No information has been revealed about when Prasidh Krishna will be able to return. I personally rate Prasidh Krishna very highly, although his stats in T20s are not very good. He has taken a beating whenever he has played, but I would like to invest. He has the potential to become a very good bowler even at the highest level. So they should start investing in him right now and have a clear roadmap for Avesh Khan as well.
