(Image Source: Getty Images) Cricket fans are eagerly waiting for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy (BGT) Test series between India and Australia (IND vs AUS). It is worth noting that in November this year, India will tour Australia for a five-match Test series. While the batting order of the Indian team seems to be very clear during this series, the same is not the case in the Australian camp. Let us tell you that the Australian management is still thinking about which player should open the innings. Because Steve Smith’s statistics while opening have not been very good. After David Warner retired in January this year, Smith has played four Test matches at this position, in which he has been able to score a total of 171 runs at a meagre average of 28.50. On the other hand, Smith’s average while batting at number 4 in Tests is 61. So now during BGT, Australia’s opening batsman Usman Khawaja has named the player who can open with him. Khawaja has suggested the name of Travis Head. Usman Khawaja gave a big statement In a recent interview with Fox Sports, Khawaja said, “He (Smith) will probably never say this. So I will say this for him. Opening is a very important position, but I still think we have the best Test player of my era, Steve Smith, in the team, and his best position has been number four.” Khawaja further said- I think that is the best batting position for him. He brings balance to our team. Marnus Labuschagne at number three and Smudge (Steve Smith) at number four. It is best for the team that whoever scores more runs at which position, he should be played at that position.

For quite some time now, there have been reports that former all-rounder Andrew Flintoff could be appointed as the head coach of England’s limited overs cricket, although no confirmation has been made by the English board about this yet. Recently, Eoin Morgan has named four former players who can play this important role in the coming times. According to Eoin Morgan, former Indian player Rahul Dravid should be given the responsibility of the new head coach of England’s limited overs cricket. Let us tell you, under the coaching of Rahul Dravid, India won the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 trophy. Apart from Rahul Dravid, the former English captain has added three more names to the list. Eoin Morgan told Sky Sports, ‘You have to understand that this is the England cricket team. It is one of the most resourced cricket teams. Now it is up to Rob Key to make this role great. You have to go to the best coach in the world and he has to understand that playing this role is very important for both of us.’ Eoin Morgan named these former players Eoin Morgan further said, ‘Right now, I have Rahul Dravid, Ricky Ponting, Brendon McCullum and Stephen Fleming in my eyes. I would like to name Brendon McCullum because I believe that he is one of the best coaches in the world.’ For quite some time now, there have been reports that Jos Buttler may be removed from the captaincy of the England limited overs team.
