While playing in the tournament, David scored a total of 926 runs in 14 matches at an impressive average of 71.23. But even after this performance, he could not make media headlines because a player like Ben Stokes was present in the team. David Bedingham gave a big statement Let us tell you that in a recent interview with Cricbuzz, David said- My plan was always to get a UK passport. Right now I am trying to do this and if that happens, I will play as a local player. David further said- It may be possible for me in two years’ time. It would be foolish for me to think about playing for a country for which I am not eligible. If I had been playing only in England for six or seven years and had not gone back to South Africa, there was a possibility of being eligible to play for England. But now it is not so, and I am clear about playing for South Africa. On the other hand, now David will be seen playing for the South African team in the two-match Test series against the West Indies starting from August 7. After Dean Elgar’s retirement from the game, David can prove to be an important player for the Proteas team in Test cricket. It will be worth seeing how David is going to perform in Test cricket against the Caribbean team?

“Give me your passport, I will give you your visa…”- Aakash Chopra wants to send Shivam Dubey to West Indies for the World Cup right now
Former Team India cricketer Aakash Chopra has praised Shivam Dubey’s excellent performance in the current IPL season. The former Indian cricketer made a big statement on the chances of Shivam Dubey being selected in the Indian team for T20 WC 2024. Taking to his YouTube channel, the former Indian opener claimed that right now there is no one who dislikes Dube. Aakash Chopra praised the CSK batsman’s six-hitting ability and was amazed by his power-hitting. Chopra claimed that no Indian batsman can break boundaries at will against both fast bowlers and spinners like Dubey. Chopra said that when Dubey comes to the crease, the opposition teams are afraid of bowling to the spinners. Aakash Chopra is not tired of praising Shivam Dubey On his YouTube channel, Aakash Chopra said, “Shivam Dubey, how can you not like this player? The way he is playing, the way he is showing his magic and hitting sixes, name an Indian striker who is hitting sixes with more consistency than him against both pace and spin. As soon as he arrives, the spinners’ overs end. Dubey scored an unbeaten 66*(38) in the match against MI, which included 10 fours and two sixes. His innings and Ruturaj Gaikwad’s 69(40) helped Chennai set a good total against Mumbai. However, MS Dhoni also played an impressive innings lower down the order. Dubey has been tremendous as a batsman in the current IPL. Chopra concluded by saying, “His reputation precedes him, that he hits a lot, so you should not take risks with him, and you will hit all the fast bowlers. He also hit the fast bowlers with all his heart. He did not spare anyone except Jasprit Bumrah. Send him to West Indies now. The consulate is next to my house. Shivam give me your passport, I will apply for your visa.”
