Pathan also analyzed RCB’s fast bowling lineup, and stressed its importance on the batting-friendly Chinnaswamy pitch. Apart from this, Kaif spoke in detail about Virat Kohli’s form and RCB’s chances of reaching the playoffs. He stressed that despite the presence of other players like Green and Maxwell, Kohli’s consistency will be vital for the team’s success. Irfan Pathan and Mohammad Kaif gave a big statement about Virat Kohli On Star Sports show, Irfan Pathan said, “One thing I would like to say to the RCB fans is that people may say that the bowling line-up for the team is weak, at least it seems so, but the management of RCB has made a work done. He has included fast bowlers in his bowling line up. They have 3 fast bowlers who can bowl the ball at a speed of 140 km/h. So there is a possibility that on a pitch like Chinnaswamy, this pace could come in handy as his batting is really very strong. Mohammad Quaid talks about Virat Kohli’s return to form and how important it is for RCB to make the playoffs. He said, “Virat Kohli has been playing amazing cricket for the last 1-2 years, he is in good form. I remember during the Asia Cup when he scored a century against Afghanistan; Since then, he has not looked back. He has been in amazing form since then, and when a player like Virat Kohli is in form, he knows how to score runs in every match. He was also the best player of the tournament during the World Cup. So I think he will continue this amazing form.”

After this, Bhupen Lalwani became the victim of Sai Kishore after scoring 15 runs. Mumbai is in a strong position now However, Musheer Khan managed to score 55 runs in 131 balls, while Mohit Awasthi and Ajinkya Rahane departed with 2 and 19 runs respectively.

IND vs ENG: Shreyas Iyer play domestic cricket and score runs there – Pragyan Ojha gives advice to out-of-form batsman
Shreyas Iyer’s form in red-ball cricket remains a matter of concern for Team India. He scored only 41 runs in the four innings played in South Africa. So far, Iyer has been able to score only 104 runs at an average of 26 in four innings of the two Test matches against England. Virat Kohli decided not to play the first two Tests of the five-match series against England and this gave the Mumbai batsman a chance in the playing XI. However, Iyer has not been able to take advantage of the opportunity. Meanwhile, it has been revealed in some reports that Virat Kohli May be out of two of the remaining three matches. KL Rahul was also ruled out of the second Test after complaining of pain in his right quadriceps related to the thigh surgery he had in 2022. However, he is expected to return to the team for the third Test. domestic cricket to shreyas iyer Should come back and score some runs- Pragyan Ojha Meanwhile, former Team India cricketer Pragyan Ojha believes that, It will be difficult for Iyer to remain in the playing eleven on the return of players like Kohli and Rahul. The left-arm spinner suggested that the Kolkata Knight Riders captain should return to domestic cricket and score some runs. Pragyan Ojha was quoted by NDTV Sports as saying, Shreyas Iyer Left behind a little. When you talk about great batsmen like Virat Kohli, and KL Rahul has also scored runs, when they return, they will be directly part of the playing XI. So in such a situation, one of Shreyas Iyer and Rajat Patidar will have to make a place in the team. Ojha further said, “It is not that you do not want to give chances, but when great batsmen are coming and you do not have that much space, you cannot support them. Therefore, the suggestion for Shreyas is that he should go back and score runs in domestic cricket.” Iyer has played 14 Tests so far and scored 811 runs at an average of 36.86. He has scored five half-centuries, while his only century came against New Zealand in his first Test in November 2021.

“He knows how to score big centuries” – former cricketer praised Rajat Patidar
30-year-old player Rajat Patidar has got a place in the Indian Test team against England. However, the chances of him getting a chance in the playing XI in both these test matches are very less. But Patidar’s inclusion in the team shows how good India’s domestic cricket is at the moment. From impressing Chandrakant Pandit with his game in the Ranji Trophy for Madhya Pradesh to holding his own with Virat Kohli in high-pressure IPL matches, Patidar’s journey speaks volumes in itself. Meanwhile, experienced coach and commentator Vijay Dahiya has given a big statement regarding him. According to Dahiya, Patidar’s ability to convert starts into big centuries is what makes him different from the rest. Vijay Dahiya praised Rajat Patidar fiercely Vijay Dahiya was quoted by Times of India as saying, “Rajat knows how to score big centuries. Being hungry is one thing but making your plan successful is completely different. If a player is scoring 151 runs out of the team’s total of 227 (India A vs England Lions), then he is an above average player. He has a lot of time when playing bowlers in the 140-click range because he sees the ball early and plays late.” Patidar may not be very tall in international cricket, but his upright stance and accurate understanding of his off-stump make him different from other players. Dahiya also explained how batsmen benefit from having a little extra time, allowing them to be able to play a variety of strokes. Dahiya further said, “I agree that you don’t mix red ball and white ball games, but IPL gives you an idea of how you perform against top teams. Everyone knows that Rajat scored a century in the IPL playoffs in difficult conditions, while Sarfaraz struggled against fast bowling. That’s why Rajat Patidar got a place in the team before Sarfaraz.” Also Read: Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing 11 and Pitch Report for SUNE vs MICT, SA20 2024, Match-20
