DTVHINDI“I am feeling good”- Big good news for Team India, KL Rahul is completely fit.
Before the opening Test of Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2025 to be played at Optus Stadium in Perth, Team India’s players are continuously getting injured, which has increased the tension of Team India. Firstly, Sarfaraz Khan and KL Rahul suffered elbow injuries during the practice session at the WACA Stadium. Later, Shubman Gill fractured his finger and was ruled out of the first Test match. Meanwhile, a relief news has come out for Team India, KL Rahul has returned to the field again after injury. Rahul was hit on the elbow by a rising ball from Prasidh Krishna during India’s intra-squad match on 15 November. He left the field after a check-up by the medical team, but the wicketkeeper-batsman worked out for about three hours during India’s training session on Sunday morning. According to RevSportz, Rahul batted for more than an hour at center wicket and looked comfortable. Rahul faced Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj and other Indian bowlers. After spending a long time at the center wicket, instead of taking rest, Rahul went straight to the nets. He practiced for a long time in the nets with both new and old balls. KL Rahul said a big thing after returning from injury After being hit on his elbow on Day 1 of the match simulation, KL Rahul has recovered and is raring to go.#TeamIndia , #AUSvIND , @klrahul pic.twitter.com/FhVDSNk8tv — BCCI (@BCCI) November 17, 2024 The Karnataka batsman opened the innings with Yashasvi Jaiswal during India’s intra-squad match simulation. When KL Rahul returned to the practice session after an elbow injury, he was now looking completely fit, but he was not in rhythm while batting. Gill has been ruled out of the first test due to a fracture in his finger, hence it has become very important for KL Rahul to be fit for the first test. When KL Rahul returned to the field after being injured, he said, I am feeling good. I batted. I am getting ready for the first test match. I have got a lot of time to prepare and I am very excited for this series.
Former Australian cricketer targeted Gautam Gambhir, said- he is not suitable for the Indian team
Gambhir had given a sharp reaction to Ricky Ponting’s statement regarding the form of senior batsman Kohli and captain Rohit Sharma. Gautam Gambhir and Tim Paine The Indian team is all set to play the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 against Australia. At the same time, before the series, the phase of rhetoric is going on from both the camps. In this series, former Australian captain Tim Paine has given a big statement regarding head coach Gautam Gambhir. He believes that Gambhir is not fit for the post of head coach. Let us tell you that the first test match between India and Australia will be played in Perth from 22nd November. This series is going to be very important for Gautam Gambhir. Because recently India had to face a clean sweep in the home Test series against New Zealand. There has also been defeat in the ODI series against Sri Lanka. In such a situation, there is a lot of pressure on Gautam Gambhir as head coach. Before leaving for Australia, Gautam Gambhir addressed the media, in which he gave a very sharp reaction to Ricky Ponting’s statement. There were reactions from fans including former cricketers on this. Now former Australian cricketer Tim Paine has also spoken openly on this. What he was asked was a very simple question – Tim Paine I didn’t like his reaction, the former wicketkeeper-batsman told SEN Tassie. I think this would not send a good signal. What he was asked was a very simple question. That said, I think he’s probably still looking at Ricky as someone he’s playing against, but Ricky is a commentator now – he’s paid to give opinions, and his opinions. It was absolutely correct. Virat is struggling, it is a matter of concern. But for me, the biggest concern for India at the moment is not Rohit Sharma’s batting, not Virat Kohli’s batting, it is their coach and his ability to remain calm under pressure. Paine further said that, Ravi Shastri had created a great atmosphere, the players were energetic, they played with passion, he sold them dreams and really inspired them in a light and entertaining way. They’ve got a new coach now who’s really angry, competitive. And that doesn’t mean it’s not a good thing and not a good way of coaching – but my concern is that it’s not suitable for the Indian cricket team.

Shardul Thakur had a memorable performance in the 2020-21 Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Shardul Thakur (Image Source: Shardul Thakur had a memorable performance in the 2020-21 Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Especially the kind of game he showed in Gabba will still be in the minds of Indian fans. However, this time he has not been selected in the Indian team for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Now the all-rounder has broken his silence on head coach Gautam Gambhir’s statement about the team moving on from him. Let us tell you that Shardul performed all-round in Gabba and scored 67 runs in the first innings and also took seven wickets. He is currently away from the cricket field due to injury. The experienced player, who recently underwent foot surgery, has expressed hope of his comeback despite being out of the national team. Shardul Thakur was quoted by Indian Express as saying, no one has contacted me yet, I have just returned from surgery, so obviously that is the reason why I am not in the team at the moment. There will definitely be opportunities: Shardul Thakur Shardul Thakur is claiming his comeback through domestic cricket. Recently, he took seven wickets (4/46 and 3/39) for Mumbai against Services, which shows how good form he is in. He said, my fitness is good now and since the Australia tour is long, opportunities can come any time. After this, the England team is also coming to India for white ball matches, then there is the Champions Trophy, so there is a lot of cricket to be played ahead. There will definitely be opportunities somewhere. Right now my focus is only on improving my fitness and giving 100 percent when I come out on the field. Shardul finally said that, in the first one or two matches, I was feeling a little hesitant while starting, but as I kept playing matches after the surgery, my confidence gradually increased. Now I have achieved 100 percent fitness and it is reflected in my bowling. In the last three or four matches, I have been bowling in full rhythm. However, some catches have been dropped, hence the wickets are not visible on the board, if those catches had been taken I would have had around 20 wickets. But it’s a part of the game.

Let us tell you that the five-time champion team has Rs 55 crore in its purse and with this it will enter the mega auction. CSK has spent Rs 65 crore for five retentions. CricTracker asked AI to prepare CSK’s team for the IPL 2025 edition. The results that came after this have become a topic of discussion among the fans. The team selected by AI has Ruturaj Gaikwad, Devon Conway, Ajinkya Rahane and Shivam Dubey as batsmen. The list of all-rounders is a little longer. It has Moeen Ali, Ravindra Jadeja, Daryl Mitchell, Mitchell Santner, Rajvardhan Henggekar and Bhagat Verma. Wicketkeepers MS Dhoni and N Jagadeesan, while the name of Prashant Solanki is in the list of spinners.

We were very clear that the players who helped the team grow are important to continue with the team. He said, it was very easy to decide to retain Gaikwad, Jaddu, MS, Shivam Dubey and Mathisha Pathirana. But we knew that if we retained these players, we would have less money left going into the auction. We knew that we would not be able to compete with other teams when it came to the best Indian players. I mean, we’ll still try, but I don’t think we’ll be able to get them in the auction.

Shubman Gill (Photo Source: Getty) Team India has suffered another setback before the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. In fact, batsman Shubman Gill got his finger injured while fielding in the slips during a match simulation in Perth on Saturday (16 November). A source close to the development confirmed Gill’s injury, but it is too early to say whether he will be ruled out of the first Test match. The first match of Border-Gavaskar Trophy will start from November 22 in Perth. Shubman Gill got injured before Perth Test The source said, “Yes, Shubman Gill is injured but it is too early to rule him out of the initial Test. The medical team is keeping a close eye on him. A source was quoted by Times of India.com as saying, “Virat Kohli is absolutely fine. He batted in the match simulation without any problem and even found the ball in the net after getting out. There is nothing to worry about.” Let us tell you that KL Rahul also got injured during practice. Rahul suffered a right elbow injury during a center wicket match simulation on 15 November, after which he did not even bat. Virat Kohli was also worried about the injury, but after the scan he was found absolutely fine. Rohit Sharma may miss the first test match Let us tell you, it is not yet clear whether Indian captain Rohit Sharma will be a part of the first test or not. If Rohit does not play, KL Rahul may get the responsibility of opening. At the same time, Shubman Gill plays at number three, so both these players are the most important members of the team. It is very important for the team to remain fit for both these players. The Indian squad in Perth has been working in the nets and now match simulation for the last two days. The Indian cricket team was scheduled to play a practice match, but the management decided against it and felt that a match simulation on center wicket would be ideal practice.
Ravi Shastri selected Team India’s playing XI for Perth Test, Easwaran was not given place, one name is shocking
The first Test between India and Australia will be played from 22nd November. Ravi Shastri And Team India (Photo Source: Twitter) The 5-match Border Gavaskar Test series to be played between India and Australia is going to start from November 22. Before the start of this series, the biggest tension for Team India is who will they give a chance in the playing XI. Regular captain Rohit Sharma has become a father for the second time and it seems a bit difficult for him to play in the Perth Test. In such a situation, the biggest question is who will open the innings with Yashasvi Jaiswal in place of Rohit Sharma. Apart from this, the team management will also have to think a lot about what will be the bowling attack of India against Australia. Meanwhile, former Team India coach Ravi Shastri has selected the playing XI, after seeing which the task of the Indian team management has become easier to some extent. Team India’s playing XI for Perth test match Under the coaching of Ravi Shastri, India had defeated Australia at home in the last two Border Gavaskar Trophies. In such a situation, his Gurumantra can be useful for Team India. In the absence of Rohit Sharma, India has the option of two opening batsmen in the form of KL Rahul and Abhimanyu Easwaran. But Ravi Shastri believes that India should start the innings by promoting Shubman Gill in place of these two. This year, Gill had decided to leave his opening slot and bat at number 3, but now Team India needs him in the opening. Shastri has selected Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal as openers in his playing XI for the Perth Test, while he has given place to KL Rahul at number-3. Rishabh Pant and Dhruv Jurel will be seen handling the responsibility of the middle order along with Virat Kohli. Jurel scored half-centuries in both innings of the last unofficial Test against Australia A. Apart from this, if we talk about bowling options, the former Indian coach has advised India to go with one spinner and four bowlers. Shastri believes that either Ravindra Jadeja or Washington Sundar should play in the Perth Test along with Jasprit Bumrah, Akashdeep, Mohammed Siraj and Nitish Reddy. Ravi Shastri’s playing XI for Perth Test– Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal, KL Rahul, Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant, Dhruv Jurel, Ravindra Jadeja/Washington Sundar, Nitish Reddy, Jasprit Bumrah, Akash Deep, Mohammed Siraj.

“India is now doing in Australia what Australia used to do in India”, said Ian Healy on Team India’s training session.
The first test match will be played in Perth from 22 November. Team India (Photo Source: The Indian team is currently on Australia tour, where it has to play a five-match Test series. He has been in the headlines since Team India reached Australia. There is a lot of pressure on the Men in Blue, as they recently suffered a 0-3 defeat in the home Test series against New Zealand. Meanwhile, Australia’s legendary wicketkeeper-batsman Ian Healy has criticized the Indian team for not allowing fans and media in the net session before the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Healy believes that the touring team may be unhappy with such a policy. He said that in the past, Australia used to do something similar on Asia tours. However, he also admitted that Team India would want a ‘safe place’ to escape the everyday scrutiny. India is now doing what Australia…- Ian Healy Healy said, India is now doing to Australia what Australia used to do to India, Pakistan and sometimes Sri Lanka. Just not acknowledging the whole experience and the initial media. If you expose yourself to the media and meet the Australian public and the many Indians who come here, it makes for a very pleasant tour. He said that there are many reasons why India has locked itself down. We cannot imagine the crowd that they have to face day after day. So maybe training is their safe space and they have to do certain things and they want to keep it away from the public eye. Let us tell you that the first test match between the two teams will be played in Perth from 22nd November. Indian captain Rohit Sharma will not be available for the first Test. Therefore, Jasprit Bumrah will take charge of the Indian team in the Perth Test.
