Rohit further said about his retirement- My decision is the final decision and I am very clear. It was the right time to say goodbye to the format I loved playing.

“Only if there is a strong bowling line-up…”, Gautam Gambhir said a big thing while praising Virat Kohli’s captaincy
The great thing you did was that you (Kohli) created a very strong bowling unit – Gautam Gambhir Virat Kohli & Gautam Gambhir (Photo Source: Getty/X) A new era of Indian Test cricket began under Virat Kohli’s captaincy. India won 40 out of 68 Test matches, which is the most Test matches won by any Indian captain in history. Kohli changed the nature of the team and focused on the growth of fast bowlers. During Virat Kohli’s tenure, bowlers like Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami, Ishant Sharma and Umesh Yadav dominated in overseas conditions. Meanwhile, Indian head coach Gautam Gambhir has praised Virat Kohli for building a strong bowling line-up during his tenure. Virat has created a strong bowling unit – Gautam Gambhir During a conversation with BCCI, Gautam Gambhir told Virat Kohli, The great thing you did was that you built a very strong bowling unit. Test matches are won by taking 20 wickets. Unless you have a strong bowling line-up (one cannot win) and that is what makes you the most successful Test captain of the country. Credit goes to you. As a batsman, it is easy to have a strong six, seven batsmen, but the way you identified and more importantly, your attitude on the field with the fast bowlers. Winning overseas with bowlers like Shami, Bumrah, Ishant, Umesh. Under the leadership of Virat Kohli, India has won Test matches in England, South Africa and Australia, where the team used to struggle earlier. Let us tell you, Team India was number-1 in the ICC Test rankings from 2017-2021. Bumrah is the most complete bowler across all formats: Virat Kohli Talking about the bowling culture of Team India, Virat Kohli emphasized that Ishant Sharma has played more than 100 Test matches for India. While Zaheer Khan is one of the legendary players. He described Bumrah as an all-format bowler and Mohammed Shami as the most important player in the Test team. When you talk about Ishant Sharma, the first thing that comes to my mind is the match he played against Ricky Ponting (during the 2007-08 tour) in Perth. If you talk about his cricket career, Ishant Sharma has played more than 100 Test matches for India. Zaheer Khan has taken a lot of wickets for India in Test cricket and was brilliant in the 50-over World Cup. Mohammed Shami is not a world famous bowler because he is a great T20 bowler. He is one of the best Test bowlers in the world and what he did in the 50-over World Cup has increased his importance even more. Bumrah is the most complete bowler in all formats.

Meanwhile, when the interview of both the players was about to end, Gambhir revealed that the next player he would talk to is Indian captain Rohit Sharma. Apart from this, the head coach asked if Virat has any questions for Rohit. During this, Virat asked some funny questions for Rohit. Virat Kohli asked a funny question to Rohit Sharma Serious: The next guest will be Rohit Sharma, so what do you want me to ask Rohit? What should be the first question to him? Kohli: I think this is a very simple question for Rohit whether you eat soaked almonds in the morning or not? Serious: Eleven o’clock at night instead of eleven in the morning? Kohli: Yes, be careful, AM should not become PM… then this will be the question for you In the conversation, Gambhir has termed Kohli’s 183-run innings played in the Asia Cup as the best innings played by an Indian batsman. Gambhir talked about Kohli and said, “The innings played against Pakistan in the Asia Cup was the best innings played by an Indian. I have seen you making your debut in South Africa, a very good important innings on a difficult wicket against West Indies in the Champions Trophy in England..”
Jaiswal, Sarfraz and Jurel have everything it takes to become a top player: Rohit Sharma
These days you need all kinds of players in your team, who are fearless, who are alert and who are responsible as well – Rohit Sharma Rohit Sharma (Image Credit- Twitter X) Indian captain Rohit Sharma expects Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sarfaraz Khan and Dhruv Jurel to be successful in all three formats of the game. Especially for Jaiswal, who is the second leading run-scorer in the ongoing World Test Championship. Jaiswal scored 1028 runs in nine matches at an average of 68.53, which is an excellent figure. On the other hand, Sarfaraz Khan and Dhruv Jurel performed significantly for India in their last Test series against England. In view of that, both of them have got a place in the team for the Test series against Bangladesh. However, after the return of KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant, their place in the playing eleven is not confirmed. Rohit hopes that they will become top players for India in the future. He also said that all three are clear about their targets and are hungry to perform well for India. The Indian captain said a big thing about Jurel, Sarfaraz and Jaiswal You don’t need to talk much to them. They are all new to Test cricket – Jaiswal, Jurel and Sarfraz. We have seen what they can do with the bat. They have everything that is needed to become a top player for India in all three formats, Rohit said in the press conference. “Over time we have to prepare them and keep talking to them, which we will do. I think they know what they have to do. They are very hungry to play for India and they are also hungry for success,” he said. Rohit further said, when we played last time (against England), Jaiswal did very well in the series. Jurel showed what he can do with the bat. Sarfaraz too – fearless, did not worry much about what will happen outside. These days you need all kinds of players in your team, who are fearless, who are cautious and at the same time responsible. I think we have a mix of this, which is a good sign.
Jaiswal increased Rohit’s tension, struggled against the fast bowler in the nets, had a long conversation with Virat
Yashasvi Jaiswal and Virat Kohli (Photo Source: X) Yashasvi Jaiswal struggled against the pacers in the nets on Sunday, September 15, ahead of the start of India’s first Test against Bangladesh. The Test match will be played at the iconic MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Seeing Yashasvi Jaiswal struggling in the nets, former captain Virat Kohli and head coach Gautam Gambhir had a word with the youngster to help him regain his confidence. Let us tell you that Jaiswal failed to make an impact in the first class match in the current season as well. In the Duleep Trophy match, he returned to the pavilion cheaply on the balls of Avesh Khan and Khalil Ahmed. Before the match against Bangladesh in Chennai, Jaiswal practiced a lot against Bumrah. However, he looked troubled against net bowlers like Simarjit Singh, Gurnur Brar and Gurjanpreet Singh along with Bumrah. The ball took the outside edge of his bat many times. Yashasvi Jaiswal got bowled by Jasprit Bumrah in the nets According to a report in the Indian Express, Kohli was standing near the centre-square of the MA Chidambaram Stadium waiting for his turn to bat, where this incident took place. During this time, Jasprit Bumrah bowled Jaiswal by uprooting his middle stump in the nets. The ball hit the stump between Jaiswal’s bat and pad. After this, Jaiswal was seen talking to Virat Kohli. Virat Kohli was probably telling this young player about his shortcomings. Kohli and Jaiswal batted for about an hour in the net session. During this, Bumrah also troubled Kohli. Kohli, however, played some brilliant cover and on drives. Jaiswal looked comfortable against spin bowlers. Still, during the practice session, Jaiswal’s confidence seemed to be shaken and he was not able to adjust to the swing and bounce. However, he used his feet well against the spinners and hit some brilliant square cuts. After this, Rishabh Pant, who came for practice, did not hesitate to play aggressive shots while batting against left-arm spinners. Indian players also did fielding practice during this time, in which priority was given to the practice of catching catches in the slips.
