(Image Source: BCCI) The Indian team dominated on the first day of the fifth Test match being played in Dharamshala. After the brilliant performance of the bowlers, the batsmen played well. By the end of the day’s play, the host team has scored 135 runs losing 1 wicket and is behind by 83 runs. Yashasvi Jaiswal was the only batsman who was out. He played an inning of 57 runs. During this period, Jaiswal completed 1000 test runs. Earlier, England’s first innings was reduced to just 218 runs. Kuldeep Yadav took 5 wickets, while R Ashwin, playing his 100th Test match, took 4 wickets. Meanwhile, after the day’s play, Kuldeep Yadav did a special conversation on Jio Cinema’s Match Center Live. Watch the excerpts from the conversation here: On playing in Dharamshala, he said that it is great to be back here after his debut. I know the condition very well. I have played domestic cricket here, so it helps. The wicket is good for batting. On the changes made in his game, Kuldeep said, I am enjoying my game. Worked very hard after the injury in 2021 and this is his reward. When you are bowling in India you need consistency in length and variation in pace. That’s what I’m doing and enjoying it. Kuldeep Yadav on taking a wicket in the match said that I really enjoyed the wicket of Jack Crawley. He has batted well throughout the series and is a good player of spin. Some magic would be needed to get him out and that was the magical ball. On the role of spinners in the initial days of the Test match, Kuldeep says, for me, it is not about the conditions. I am someone who believes in my skill and length. I have played a lot of white ball cricket on flat pitches. So, for me it is more about my skill and variations and not about the conditions. While discussing with Ashwin and Jadeja, Kuldeep said that we never discuss about our roles. They’re always suggesting things for me to try, but there’s no obligation to implement them.
WPL 2024: Because of Virat Kohli, Jemimah Rodrigues was able to play a stormy innings for DC against MI!
Jemimah Rodrigues played a brilliant inning of 69 runs in just 33 balls against MI. Jemimah Rodrigues and Virat Kohli. (Image Source: Instagram) Delhi Capitals (DC)’s young batting sensation Jemimah Rodrigues (Jemimah Rodrigues) Team India’s batting superstar Virat Kohli on his game after his memorable innings in the ongoing Women’s Premier League 2024 (WPL 2024)Virat Kohli) has given a big statement regarding its impact. Like many other Indian cricketers, she is a fan of Virat Kohli and follows him. Let us tell you, Jemimah Rodrigues displayed her extraordinary talent with the bat during Delhi Capitals (DC)’s 29-run win against Mumbai Indians (MI) in the 12th game of WPL 2024 released on March 5. I have learned this thing from Virat Kohli: Jemimah Rodrigues He played a brilliant inning of 69 runs in just 33 balls with the help of eight fours and three sixes against Mumbai Indians (MI), and for this he was given the Player of the Match award. Rodrigues started slowly but soon picked up the pace and performed aggressively in the last five overs of his team’s innings. Rodrigues, a right-handed batsman, displayed her versatility by scoring runs around the field, and eluding the fielders while making smart shot selections. Jemimah Rodriguez said after the match: “You need all kinds of shots when you come to the WPL, and I can’t be limited to a few shots and say, ‘That’s the kind of player I am.’ For me I need to put in a little more effort than others to hit those sixes. But I have a lot of confidence in my timing and the swing of my bat. ‘He runs well between the wickets’ I think everything went right today, I don’t try to hit sixes, I just try to hit the ball in the gap. If the ball is hit very well, it goes for a six. This is something that I have learned from Virat Kohli; He is really an expert in this. I emulate him a lot because our batting positions are similar in the Indian team. The way Virat Kohli approaches his game, he runs well between the wickets, and has great intent while batting. Even if he hits a six, he hits it in the gap. So, if he hits it well, it’s either two runs, four or a six. This is what I try and implement in my game as well.”

So in the tournament, the trio of Pakistani bowlers Shaheen Afridi, Naseem Shah and Haris Rauf could not show anything special. However, Naseem Shah, who was out of the tournament due to injury, has now given a big statement. Shah is seen getting emotional while remembering his injury time. Naseem gave a big statement regarding the World Cup Let us tell you that in an interview with Cricwick about not being able to play in the World Cup, Naseem Shah said – It was very difficult for me to watch the match on TV when you know that you are on the field with the rest of the team. I hardly watched any matches because I couldn’t bear to watch them. After the surgery my arm was in a sling and I would wake up suddenly at night wondering if the injury had healed. Shah further said- When you are stuck in a room for a long time, you become mentally dejected and start feeling dejected. It is every player’s dream to play for the country in the World Cup. Especially the ODI World Cup, because it comes once in four years. Before the tournament started, I felt like I was at the top of my skills. Every player feels like this at some point in his career. I was fine with the performance and other things, I worked hard for it, but when you have an injury, you can’t do much.

De Villiers further said – His intentions are great and if he is liked in dressing form then Rohit and the selection panel will have the ability to consider him as the future of that player and consider him a part of the team.

(Photo Source: X(Twitter) Former Indian captain Sourav Ganguly expressed surprise at Ishan Kishan’s decision not to play Ranji Trophy this season after being dropped from the BCCI’s central contract. BCCI recently announced the central contract, in which big players like Kishan and Shreyas Iyer were not included. Kishan had declared himself unavailable for domestic cricket after the South Africa Test series. Kishan had taken a break from domestic and international cricket due to mental fatigue. In an interview with RevSports, when Ganguly was asked about Kishan not playing Ranji Trophy, he replied. Ganguly said, “You should play first class cricket. Once you become a contracted player, you are expected to play in premier tournaments. Shreyas Iyer is going to play in the semi-finals for Mumbai in a few days. Yes, they are young people and Ishaan has surprised me. He was a part of the Indian team in all formats. Such a big contract in IPL. I don’t know why they did this. You should play especially when you are talented like Ishan Kishan. When you are playing for India in all formats, you must play. I was surprised by his decision not to play.” Furthermore, Ganguly also supported BCCI’s decision to drop both Shreyas and Ishan from the central contracts. BCCI’s decision regarding Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer is absolutely right – Sourav Ganguly He further said, “I think BCCI wants him to play first class cricket. I am surprised that Shreyas Iyer has not played Ranji Trophy. This is a major tournament and you should play. So, it is BCCI’s decision and they have done the right thing. “Every contracted cricketer should play first-class cricket because that is the foundation of cricket in this country.” The BCCI’s decision to exclude players like Kishan and Iyer from central contracts can be seen as a measure to emphasize the importance of first-class cricket. While Iyer is playing the Ranji Trophy semi-final match for Mumbai, Kishan was also seen playing the match with Hardik Pandya in the DY Patil T-20 Cup 2024.
