Gautam Gambhir & KL Rahul (Photo Source: India head coach Gautam Gambhir revealed that there is no certainty yet whether Rohit Sharma will play in the first Test against Australia in Perth or not. He said that a decision will be taken in the next few days and if he does not play the Perth Test, then Bumrah will captain in his absence. Meanwhile, the 43-year-old also highlighted that if Rohit does not play then Abhimanyu Easwaran or KL Rahul could open. In fact Both Easwaran and Rahul flopped with the bat in the practice match against Australia A in Melbourne. After which, there was discussion about Shubman Gill opening again, but Gambhir admitted that the team management had not discussed it. However, he indicated that the team management would give preference to someone senior. Gambhir talked about Rahul’s experience and said that the playing eleven will be selected closer to the first Test. The Delhi-born player also revealed that the team is not focusing on the World Test Championship final and every series they play has great importance. Gautam Gambhir gave a big statement regarding KL Rahul Gautam Gambhir said in the press conference, “I am not considering the scenario of reaching the WTC final. Every series is important, regardless of what happened in the past. We are keen to go to Australia and do well. Abhimanyu Easwaran, KL Rahul are our options as Rohit’s replacement. “I will consider the best playing XI as the first Test approaches.” He further said, “Sometimes you go with experienced players also. He can bat in the top order, middle order and also at number 6. He can keep wickets; If Rohit is not available for the first Test then he can open for us. How many teams have a player like KL Rahul who can open as well as play at number 5 or 6? KL Rahul is an experienced player.”

Mohammad Rizwan is not at all stressed for the upcoming tour, gave an open challenge to the Australian team

The white ball series against Australia is starting from 4th November. Mohammad Rizwan (Pic Source-Twitter) Pakistan Cricket Board has recently appointed brilliant wicketkeeper-batsman Mohammad Rizwan as the captain of its limited overs cricket team. Let us tell you that Pakistan now has to play a white ball series against Australia and before their upcoming tour, important responsibility has been given to Mohammad Rizwan. The performance of the Pakistan team under the captaincy of Babar Azam had been very poor for some time and that is why the experienced batsman resigned from this important post. Talking about Mohammad Rizwan, he captained the Multan Sultan team brilliantly in the Pakistan Super League, after which he has also been appointed the captain of the Pakistan team. Before the upcoming Australia tour, Mohammad Rizwan has made a big revelation about his team’s plans. Rizwan believes that even though the players have performed disappointingly for some time now, they can be seen performing tremendously in the upcoming tour. PCB has released a video in which Mohammad Rizwan said, ‘There is no doubt that we have faced a lot of problems in Australia before. The results have also not gone in our favor but I am confident that we will live up to the expectations that the people of our country have from us in the upcoming tour. In the last series we played in Australia, we won almost every match. In all of them we came very close and lost the match. We have observed some things carefully and have learned a lot of positive points from them. Inshallah we will defeat Australia in Australia. We are all ready for the upcoming challenges: Mohammad Rizwan The experienced player further said, ‘There is Champions Trophy next year and we also have our eyes on ICC T20 World Cup 2026. Apart from this, we are also watching Olympics 2028 carefully. Our team is fully prepared for the upcoming challenges. The white ball series against Australia is starting from 4th November.

BGT 2024: Michael Clarke wants to see the player who played his last international match in 2019 open against India.

The five-match Test series between Team India and Australia is starting from November 22. Michael Clarke (Photo Source: Twitter) Former player Michael Clarke believes that Cameron Bancroft should be included in the Australia team in the five-match Test series against Team India. Let us tell you that the five-match Test series between Team India and Australia is starting from November 22. The first test between these two teams will be played in Perth. Experienced all-rounder Cameron Green is injured and it is finding it very difficult for him to play in this series. Michael Clarke said on Sky Big Sports Breakfast, ‘I don’t think it would be right to select anyone for two matches. I said the same for Sam Konstas. I think he is a talented player and he has started the season with a bang. But you cannot say that a player who has scored just two centuries is like Cameron Bancroft or Harris who has scored 12 centuries in 4 years. He has played first class cricket for a long time and his name should be the first in this list. I would be very disappointed by the fact that I am the captain of the Australian team and I do not know who will open the team in the first Test match at this time. Cameron Bancroft played his last international test match in 2019 Let us tell you that Cameron Bancroft played his last international Test match against England in 2019. However, this player has performed brilliantly in domestic cricket for some time. If Australia wants to make it to the finals of this cycle of the World Test Championship, then it is very important for them to defeat Team India. Very soon Cricket Australia will announce the Australia squad for the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy. It is going to be very exciting to see who is given the responsibility of opening the Australian team in the upcoming Test series.

BGT 2024: Shubman Gill should not open in Australia in Rohit Sharma’s unavailability: Anil Kumble

According to Anil Kumble, Shubman Gill has a lot of experience of playing in Australia and he can be seen batting tremendously at number three. Shubman Gill (Photo Source: The performance of Indian team’s best batsman Shubman Gill has been excellent in international cricket so far. He has scored important runs while batting brilliantly for Team India in many matches. Now Shubman Gill can also be seen performing well in the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia. However, before the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, former spinner Anil Kumble has presented his side regarding this brilliant player. According to Anil Kumble, Shubman Gill has a lot of experience of playing in Australia and he can be seen batting tremendously at number three. He has appealed to Team India that if Rohit Sharma is unavailable in the Test match, then Shubman Gill should not be made to open. Talking about Shubman Gill, he made his debut for Team India as an opener in Melbourne in 2020. He opened for Team India in 17 Tests, after which Gill started batting at number three from 2023 onwards. For quite some time now, reports have been coming out that Indian team captain Rohit Sharma may miss the first match of the upcoming 5-match Test series against Australia. On the first day of the first Test between India and New Zealand, Anil Kumble told the broadcaster, ‘Shubman Gill is a talented player. He also has the ability. He has been to Australia before also. He scored a brilliant half-century in Brisbane and Shubman Gill knows the situation there very well. Gill can be seen playing an important role in Australia: Anil Kumble The former spinner further said, ‘I don’t want to let it change. If Rohit is unavailable in the first test then Shubman Gill can be sent to open. But there is also KL Rahul in the team who can be seen doing wicketkeeping along with opening. Rahul Dravid had done this earlier and now KL Rahul is also doing the same. Gill can be seen playing an important role in Australia. I only want him to be seen batting at number three. The best thing about Gill is that his performance against Australia has been excellent and he knows the conditions there very well.

“Don’t make Travis Head open in BGT…”- Ian Chappell warns Australia team

Travis Head (Image Credit- Twitter X) Former Australian cricketer Ian Chappell has warned the Australian team against using Travis Head as an opening batsman in the upcoming five-match Test series against India. The Kangaroos are set to face India in a five-match Test series later this year. The 2024-25 edition of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy is scheduled to begin on November 22 in Perth. The Australian team is looking for an opening partner for Usman Khawaja after David Warner announced his retirement from Test cricket earlier this year. In the last two Test series against West Indies and New Zealand, Steve Smith opened for the Pat Cummins-led side but did not perform as expected. There is a high possibility that he will be seen batting at number four in this series against India. Now in such a situation, it will be interesting to see who will open for the Australian team in the Test series against India in his absence. Ian Chappell has given his opinion on this issue. Ian Chappell expressed his opinion regarding Travis Head In his column for ESPN Cricinfo by ian chappell That said, “Travis Head’s opening in Test cricket is based on his unmatched success facing the new ball in both 50-over and T20 cricket. There is no doubt that Head, with his highly attacking style, is the ideal player to open in the two shorter formats of the game. However, Test cricket will be a completely different thing.” Ian Chappell further said, “To trouble Jasprit Bumrah, everyone is demanding that Head should open. However, Bumrah and to some extent Mohammed Siraj are unlikely to change their aggressive mindset.” Chappell wants some runs on the board before Travis Head comes to the crease. He said, “Clever R Ashwin will not be fazed by the ultra-aggressive attitude of the opponent. It could be argued that opening with Head means he is more stable facing Ashwin when there are some runs on the board. On the other hand, an astute opposition captain can use off-spinners with the new ball. There is also a compelling argument for using Head as an opening batsman in a Test match.”

IND vs BAN: Rinku Singh should open with Abhishek Sharma in T20 series: Saba Karim

According to the former player, Rinku Singh can also take the pressure off Abhishek Sharma by batting aggressively. Rinku Singh. (Image Source: BCCI) Team India has announced its squad for the T20 series against Bangladesh. The best batsman Rinku Singh has also been included in the Indian team, whose performance in international cricket so far has been excellent. According to former player Saba Karim, Rinku Singh should open with Abhishek Sharma in the upcoming T20 series against Bangladesh. According to the former player, Rinku Singh can also take the pressure off Abhishek Sharma by batting aggressively. Not only this, this will also increase the confidence of Abhishek Sharma and both the players together can give an aggressive start to Team India. Saba Karim made this statement during the second test match between India and Bangladesh on GeoCinema. Saba Karim said, ‘It is possible that Rinku Singh will be seen opening with Abhishek Sharma for Team India. Whatever opportunities Rinku Singh has been given so far, we have seen him bat at number 6 or number 7. He has not got much balls to play. Let me tell you that Rinku Singh is a complete player. If he gets more opportunities and if the best batsmen play more balls, it will only benefit his team. That is why we can see this strong combination in the upcoming T20 series against Bangladesh. T20 series between Team India and Bangladesh is starting from 6th October. Let us tell you that the three-match T20 series between Team India and Bangladesh is starting from October 6. The first match between these two teams will be played in Gwalior while the second will be played at Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. The third and final T20 between the two teams will be played at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. Saba Karim also believes that if Rinku Singh gets promotion in their batting lineup, then he can prove to be a match winner for Team India and can completely swing the game towards the hosts. Here is Team India’s T20 squad against Bangladesh: Suryakumar Yadav (captain), Abhishek Sharma, Sanju Samson, Rinku Singh, Hardik Pandya, Riyan Parag, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Shivam Dubey, Washington Sundar, Ravi Bishnoi, Varun Chakraborty, Jitesh Sharma, Arshdeep Singh, Harshit Rana, Mayank Yadav.

I will not refuse to open in Test cricket at all: Cameron Green is fully prepared to open for Australia

Australia’s best all-rounder Cameron Green is fully set to open in Test cricket. Cameron Green (Image Credit- Twitter X) Australia’s best all-rounder Cameron Green is fully prepared to open in Test cricket. Let us tell you, David Warner has retired from Test cricket in January. Since then, there have been many players who have been given the responsibility of opening for the Australian Test team. Cameron Green is seen batting at number four in Test cricket. This young player scored a valuable century for his team against New Zealand in March and also took three wickets. Due to his excellent all-round performance, Australia won the series 2-0. Cameron Green said about his batting order at number four in the Wisden Cricket Weekly podcast, ‘There are three to four players who want to bat at number four and this is mostly seen in international cricket. Most players bat at number three or number four throughout their career. Steve Smith is the best player to bat at number four. Travis Head and Marnus Labuschagne are also in this list. I have batted in the same order throughout my domestic cricketing career. You need to fit everyone in and it is not necessary that all players are seen batting at number 4. You are always excited to play for Australia: Cameron Green The brilliant all-rounder further said, ‘Now it is up to Steve Smith to decide what he thinks about the batting lineup. I am ready to bat in any order. If I am given the responsibility of opening, then I would like to do it well. You are always desperate to play for Australia. Opening the team is not an easy thing but I will not refuse it. Whatever decision the selectors take, I will be ready to fulfill that responsibility. I have also opened for Australia in T20 cricket. I bowled the 20th over against India and then came to open the batting. This is really a very difficult thing.

This player can open with Usman Khawaja in BGT, the cricketer himself suggested the name

Border-Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia will start in November Usman Khawaja. (Image Source: Getty Images) Cricket fans are eagerly waiting for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy (BGT) Test series between India and Australia (IND vs AUS). It is worth noting that in November this year, India will tour Australia for a five-match Test series. While the batting order of the Indian team seems to be very clear during this series, the same is not the case in the Australian camp. Let us tell you that the Australian management is still thinking about which player should open the innings. Because Steve Smith’s statistics while opening have not been very good. After David Warner retired in January this year, Smith has played four Test matches at this position, in which he has been able to score a total of 171 runs at a meagre average of 28.50. On the other hand, Smith’s average while batting at number 4 in Tests is 61. So now during BGT, Australia’s opening batsman Usman Khawaja has named the player who can open with him. Khawaja has suggested the name of Travis Head. Usman Khawaja gave a big statement In a recent interview with Fox Sports, Khawaja said, “He (Smith) will probably never say this. So I will say this for him. Opening is a very important position, but I still think we have the best Test player of my era, Steve Smith, in the team, and his best position has been number four.” Khawaja further said- I think that is the best batting position for him. He brings balance to our team. Marnus Labuschagne at number three and Smudge (Steve Smith) at number four. It is best for the team that whoever scores more runs at which position, he should be played at that position.
