DTVHINDISri Lanka raised security concerns about England Test tour due to ongoing riots in UK, know what was said?
Sri Lanka has proposed a 3 match Test series against England from 21 August Srilanka Cricket Team (Image Credit- Twitter X) Sri Lanka’s men’s cricket team is going to tour England very soon for a three-match Test series. However, before going on this tour, the team has expressed concern over the security situation in England in view of the anti-immigrant riots that broke out in the country. It is worth noting that a three-match Test series is proposed between Sri Lanka and England from August 21. So when Sri Lanka has raised concerns about security, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has responded to Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) and the team by assuring them about the security arrangements. So one of the team players who is currently in the UK, told ESPN Cricinfo – It seems that most of the issues are not close to the level where we are but everyone is still a bit worried about the situation. We can’t really go out for dinner or anything like that. We mostly stay in the hotel. Nobody wants to get into trouble and get beaten up. We have asked the board to arrange some security for us till the main team arrives, but we haven’t received any response yet. On the other hand, when Sri Lanka Cricket Team Manager Mahinda Halangoda summoned the ECB regarding security, they responded immediately. Halangoda said- I raised the issue of security with them, but the ECB responded very quickly and sent us their comprehensive security arrangements. We will also have a security liaison with them on the tour. Full schedule of Sri Lanka cricket team’s UK tour 1st Test: August 21-25 – Emirates Old Trafford, Manchester 2nd Test: August 29-September 2 – Lord’s, London 3rd Test: September 6-10 – Kingston Oval, London
“You are not a foreign coach who…” Ashish Nehra got angry at Gautam Gambhir! Raised questions about Rohit-Kohli
Gambhir’s experiment, which included changing the Indian batting order twice and trying out a left-right combination, has been criticised. Gautam Gambhir and Ashish Nehra Source The Indian team has suffered a setback in the ODI series between India and Sri Lanka. While the first ODI was tied, the Indian team lost to Sri Lanka by 32 runs in the second ODI. Due to this, the Indian team is forced to level the series by winning the last ODI match. The reason for this is believed to be the poor results of coach Gautam Gambhir. Gambhir’s experiments, which claimed to try a left-right combination with two changes in the Indian batting order, have been criticized. Due to this, some opinions have also been raised that the Indian team has no chance of winning the Champions Trophy series. Ashish Nehra raised questions on Gautam Gambhir’s coaching Ashish Nehra, a former teammate of captain Rohit Sharma and head coach Gautam Gambhir, was asked the same question after Sri Lanka took a crucial 1-0 lead. He did not give a direct answer but criticised Gambhir for focusing on Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma while he could have tried new players in the series. According to the report, the senior batsmen made themselves available for the series after Gambhir’s request. India’s current Sri Lanka tour is Gambhir’s first tour as India’s head coach, and he wanted to spend time with Kohli and Rohit to understand the team. Nehra said Gambhir should have waited as he was not new to the two star players, and instead should have tried out other players and tested India’s bench strength. Ashish Nehra said on Sony Sports- “India’s next series is after 2-3 months, which is a rare thing for us. So for players like Rohit and Kohli…I think there was a better chance to give opportunities to other players during this series. I know Gambhir is the new coach and he wants to spend some time with the experienced players, but it’s not like he doesn’t know both of them.” “He is not a foreign coach who wants to get his equation right with Kohli and Rohit. So it was a good opportunity for him to try out new players and Rohit and Kohli could play when the domestic season starts. I am not saying it is the wrong way, but it could have been one of the strategies in this series.” Riyan Parag, Rishabh Pant, Harshit Rana and Khaleel Ahmed have not played in either of the two ODIs and it will be interesting to see if India make changes to their playing XI for the third and final ODI. Usually, teams try out their bench strength after sealing the series with an unassailable lead.

Ahead of the meeting, it has emerged that IPL franchises have demanded action from the BCCI against foreign players who withdraw their names from the tournament at the last moment after being bought in the auction. According to a report by Cricbuzz, the franchises have highlighted the issue of foreign players being constantly left out of the league. Franchise demanded action from BCCI According to the report, the actions of players like Jason Roy, Alex Hales and Wanindu Hasaranga, who have previously withdrawn from the IPL due to low bids, have raised concerns for the IPL management. From personal issues to injuries, the reasons for their withdrawal have put a damper on the plans of the franchises and hence they are demanding action from the BCCI on this. Apart from this, franchise owners have also highlighted a pattern where some foreign players refuse to participate in the mega auction and participate in the mini auction so that they can get higher bids. Now these issues will be the main topic of discussion in the meeting to be held on Wednesday evening between the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) officials and the Indian Premier League franchise owners.

T20 World Cup 2024: Trinidad pitch created a ruckus, former veterans raised big questions calling it ‘dangerous’
The pitch was a bit dangerous. Some balls were passing around the shoulder, neck, chin height of the South African fast bowlers – Andy Flower T20 World Cup 2024, SA vs AFG (Photo Source: Getty Images) South Africa has reached the final by defeating Afghanistan by 9 wickets in the first semi-final match of T20 World Cup 2024. With this victory, the African team has created history, the team is going to play a World Cup final for the first time. But meanwhile there is a ruckus about the pitch of Trinidad. After the match, Afghanistan’s head coach Jonathan Trott had said that this was not the semi-final pitch. At the same time, South African captain Aiden Markram is happy not to play on this pitch again. The Trinidad pitch was very difficult to bat on, which the African bowlers took advantage of. And Afghanistan was all out for 56 runs in 11.5 overs. Former Australian cricketer Tom Moody and former Zimbabwean player Andy Flower have made a big statement raising questions on the Trinidad pitch. T20 World Cup 2024: Playing on the pitch was a tough challenge- Tom Moody Former Australian player Tom Moody says that there should be equal competition between ball and bat. He says that batsmen should not face a pitch where the conditions are completely against them. Tom Moody also said that it is not right for teams to score more than 200 in every match, balance is needed in every match. Talking on ESPNcricinfo, Tom Moody said, You want a fair contest between bat and ball and I am not advocating that we need pitches where you need 200+ runs. But you need consistent bounce, that is the most important thing. Any batsman will put his hand up and say, that is the most important thing. If you have a ball that is hitting the toe of your bat or a ball that you feel you are going to punch the same length with your gloves, it is a very tough challenge to counter. The pitch was a bit dangerous- Andy Flower Former Zimbabwe player Andy Flower says that the pitch had inconsistent bounce, which troubled the batsmen. Flower also said that the pitch also looked dangerous because the balls were passing around the shoulders, neck and chin of the batsmen, which could also cause injuries. Andy Flower said, As a batsman, you’re trying to predict where the ball will be. You’d like to get it somewhere in the middle of the bat at least. And on this pitch, it was almost impossible to do that on any consistent basis. It was a bit dangerous actually. Some of the balls were going past the shoulders, necks, chin height of the South African fast bowlers. And one of them even went past the head of Quinton de Kock, the keeper. And I was glad nobody got hurt.

Former player gave a surprising statement regarding the question being raised on Virat Kohli’s strike rate in T20 World Cup 2024
According to Sanjay Bangar, Virat Kohli’s focus will be on contributing to his team’s victory. Virat Kohli (Image Credit- Twitter X) The T20 World Cup 2024 has started and the Indian team will play its first match of this important tournament against Ireland on June 5. All Indian fans want their team to perform well in this tournament and win its trophy. Virat Kohli will also want to leave his mark in the T20 World Cup 2024. Former player Sanjay Bangar has given a big statement about Virat Kohli’s batting in this tournament. According to Sanjay Bangar, Virat Kohli’s focus will be on making a match-winning contribution for his team. Not only this, Sanjay Bangar also gave his opinion about the strike rate of the former captain of the Indian team in this tournament. In Star Sports’ Game Plan show, Sanjay Bangar said, ‘You cannot decide that I have to play only one type of cricket on the field because players also have the responsibility to win the match. Whichever way Virat Kohli plays, he will want the Indian team to win the match. He will play his shots well and his focus will be on finishing the match.’ Sanjay Bangar further said, ‘The way he has performed in the T20 World Cup or any World Cup, there has been a lot of improvement in his game. I am confident that Virat Kohli will reach even greater heights in this World Cup.’ Harbhajan Singh also gave his opinion about Virat Kohli Harbhajan Singh said, ‘The strike rate is being talked about because Virat Kohli does not hit sixes against spinners the way other players do. However, if we talk about IPL 2024, he has hit more sixes against spinners. He sits on one knee and hits shots over mid-wicket and this is how he used to play in his early days. However, he stopped doing so and Kohli was mostly seen playing with a straight bat.
