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.
I knew very well that Wahab was incapable of delivering results in any way: Sarfraz Nawaz
Wahab Riaz has been removed from the post of selector of Men’s Pakistan team. Wahab Riaz (Image Credit- Twitter X) Recently, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has been seen in action after the poor performance of the Pakistan cricket team in the T20 World Cup 2024. Let us tell you that the PCB has sacked former fast bowler Wahab Riaz, who was working as the selector of the men’s team. So after this incident, a big statement of former Pakistan player Sarfraz Nawaz has come out. Nawaz says that he had already advised Zaka Ashraf and Mohsin Naqvi not to appoint Wahab for this post. Nawaz says that he knew that he was not suitable to play this role. Sarfraz Nawaz gave a big statement Let us tell you that after PCB removed Wahab Riaz from the post of selector, Sarfaraz Nawaz was quoted by a local news channel of Pakistan as saying – I have a record of writing letters to Zaka Ashraf and Mohsin Naqvi regarding Wahab Riaz’s dubious past and his lack of abilities as a cricket administrator. No one paid heed to my suggestion. I knew very well that Wahab was not capable of performing well in any capacity yet he was made selector, advisor and manager. He has proved to be a failure at all levels. While further Nawaz said about the change in the captaincy of the team- Mohammad Rizwan has proved his captaincy credentials by helping Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK) win all the domestic competitions. While his performance as captain of Multan Sultans has been consistently good over the years. He is best suited for captaincy. Babar Azam is low on confidence. His name should be considered for the post of captaincy.
