IND vs SL: Is this player’s last ODI for Team India? Champions Trophy dream shattered

Shivam Dubey’s return to the ODI team is doubtful. Shivam Dubey has played 4 ODI matches for India so far. In this, he has scored 43 runs and taken one wicket at a poor average of 10.75. Shivam Dubey (Source X) On 8 August, despite having star players, the strong Indian team had to face a humiliating defeat of 0-2 in the ODI series against Sri Lanka. With this, India has lost an ODI series in Sri Lanka after 27 years. Team India included young players as well as veteran players. But, they could not perform well in the ODI series against Sri Lanka. Amidst all this, the question has arisen whether any player of Team India has played the last ODI match of his career. Shivam Dube is coming under the scanner of this question. Did Shivam Dubey play his last ODI for India? The Indian player was given a chance to play continuously in the ODI series against Sri Lanka. However, this player has broken the trust of Team India coach Gautam Gambhir and captain Rohit Sharma with his flop performance. Now there are rumors that this was Shivam Dubey’s last ODI match for India. It is almost impossible for Dubey to get a chance in India’s ODI team in the future. How was Shivam Dubey’s performance on the Sri Lanka tour? All-rounder Shivam Dubey has performed poorly in the three-match ODI series against Sri Lanka. Shivam Dubey could not get success in both bowling and batting. Shivam Dubey missed the chance to become the hero of the team by scoring 25, 0 and 9 runs in the three matches of the ODI series. Shivam Dubey could not perform as claimed in bowling as well. On the basis of all these statistics, it is doubtful that Shivam Dubey will get a chance in the ODI team. It will be difficult if Hardik Pandya comes Hardik Pandya did not play in the ODI series against Sri Lanka. Due to this, Shivam Dubey was given a chance as an all-rounder in the ODI team. But Shivam Dubey performed poorly and could not maintain the trust of the coach and captain. In such a situation, if Hardik returns to Team India’s ODI team, Shivam Dubey will lose his place. It is very difficult for Shivam Dubey to remain in the ODI team along with Hardik. Shivam Dubey may miss the golden opportunity of Champions Trophy The Champions Trophy tournament will be held in February-March 2025 next year. Team India will play the next ODI match in this tournament. Hardik Pandya will play as an all-rounder for Team India in the Champions Trophy 2025. Apart from this, Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Hardik Pandya, Rinku Singh and Ravindra Jadeja will get a chance in the top order. In such a situation, players like Shivam Dubey, Shreyas Iyer and Rishabh Pant may miss out due to their poor performance. Especially Shivam Dube’s return to the ODI team is doubtful. Shivam Dube has played 4 ODI matches for India so…

“It is a matter of concern that….”- Statement of former legendary cricketer after losing the ODI series against Sri Lanka

Virat Kohli (Pic Source-X) After losing the ODI series against Sri Lanka 2-0, former Indian opener and current expert Wasim Jaffer has expressed concern. Jaffer’s concern is not about the fact that Team India lost the series but he has expressed his concern about the Indian team’s preparations before the Champions Trophy to be held in Pakistan next year. He says that playing only three ODIs before the Champions Trophy is a matter of concern for India. Actually, the Champions Trophy is to be held in February-March next year and after the Sri Lanka tour, India will have only three ODIs to prepare for this tournament, which they have to play against England in 2025. Wasim Jaffer wrote on X, ‘Sri Lanka played better cricket and deserves to win the series. I am not worried that India lost the series. Winning and losing is a part of the game. However, it is a matter of concern that India has only 3 ODIs left before the Champions Trophy.’ SL played better cricket and deserve the series win. It doesn’t worry me that India lost a series. Wins and losses are part of the game. However it’s a point of concern that India has just 3 ODIs before the Champions Trophy. #SLvIND — Wasim Jaffer (@WasimJaffer14) August 7, 2024 Let us tell you, after 1997, the Sri Lankan team has been successful in winning the ODI series against India. The first match of this three-match series was a tie. After this, the host team won the next two matches in a one-sided manner.

Aakash Chopra lashed out at Team India’s bowling in the third ODI against Sri Lanka, said this big thing

Sri Lanka defeated India by 110 runs in the third ODI. Aakash Chopra (Image Credit- Twitter X) The third and final match of the ongoing three-match ODI series between India and Sri Lanka (IND vs SL) was played at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Wednesday, August 7. Let us tell you that in this match, host Sri Lanka made a big upset and won a big victory against Team India by 110 runs.

Batting first, Sri Lanka set a target of 249 runs for the Indian team to win, while chasing which Team India was reduced to just 138 runs in 26.1 overs. On the other hand, after this poor performance of the Indian team in the match, a big statement has come from former Indian cricketer and well-known cricket commentator Aakash Chopra. Chopra says that the Indian bowlers were not cruel in this match. Aakash Chopra gave a big statement After the end of the third ODI between India and Sri Lanka, Aakash Chopra said through a video uploaded on his YouTube channel- We were not able to finish Sri Lanka’s innings in bowling. There seemed to be a sense of complacency that we would get wickets anyway and if we did not get wickets, we would chase the runs anyway. There was a lack of brutality in bowling. Chopra further said- I think we outplay the opponent and play spin very well on flat wickets. Our bowlers also bowl better than them on such pitches. However, when the pitches start turning, our batting becomes normal and the difference in bowling quality reduces. So, this is a problem they have to solve.

After winning the ODI series against India, Sri Lanka got a big shock, this great spinner was accused of fixing

“It’s a joke…” Why was KL Rahul dropped from the team for the third ODI? Former cricketer demands an answer

Dodda Ganesh has criticised the Indian management for their decision to leave out an experienced player like KL Rahul for this do-or-die encounter. KL Rahul (Photo Source: X/Twitter) Former India fast bowler Dodda Ganesh has questioned the decision to drop KL Rahul and replace him with Shivam Dubey in the ODI match against Sri Lanka. Ganesh called the move ridiculous and said that KL Rahul had captained India in this format only a short time ago. Sri Lanka won the series 2-0 by defeating India by 110 runs in the third and final ODI played at R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Wednesday, 7 August. Batting first, the host team scored 248 runs. After this, Dunith Welalage took 5 wickets for 27 runs in 5.1 overs and the Indian team collapsed for 138 runs in 26.1 overs. The Men in Blue made two changes to their playing XI for this do-or-die encounter. Rishabh Pant replaced KL Rahul, while Riyan Parag replaced Arshdeep Singh. Ganesh on his X handle has criticised the Indian management for the decision to leave out an experienced player like KL Rahul for this do-or-die encounter. Ganesh wrote in his post “Only a crazy person would replace KL Rahul with Shivam Dube and Riyan Parag for such an important match. Can’t understand what is happening. He was leading India just 3 ODIs ago and suddenly, after a flop performance, he is out of the playing XI. What a joke. Only in a crazy universe will u have Dube and Riyan Parag playing ahead of KL Rahul, in a decider ODI. Don’t understand what’s happening. He was leading India just 3 ODIs ago and all of a sudden, one failure & he is out of the playing XI. Ridiculous is an understatement. #SLvIND — Dodda Ganesh दौद्ग गानेश (@doddaganesha) August 7, 2024 The 51-year-old former Karnataka fast bowler also warned that dropping players after one or two failures could create a sense of insecurity in them. He wrote in the next post- “If a player who had great success last year can be dropped on a technicality after one failure, it creates a sense of insecurity among the players. Well, you can’t build a cricket team like that. Who would have thought that India would lose so easily to Sri Lanka?” If a player who’s had great success in the last year can be dropped after technically one failure, it creates a sense of insecurity amongst players. Well, you can’t build cricket teams like this. Who would’ve thought that India would lose to SL so convincingly? #SLvIND — Dodda Ganesh दौद्ग गानेश (@doddaganesha) August 7, 2024 What is your opinion? Was it the right move to keep KL Rahul out of the team in the last decisive match?
