IND vs SL: Morne Morkel will not go on Sri Lanka tour with Team India, this former player will be the interim bowling coach
India’s Sri Lanka tour will start from 27 July Team India (Image Credit- Twitter X) The Indian cricket team is going to tour Sri Lanka very soon. Team India will be seen playing a three-match T20 and a three-match ODI series on this tour. India’s tour will begin with the T20 series starting from July 27. However, before the start of this tour of India, a big news has come out for the Men in Blue. According to media reports of Cricbuzz, Morne Morkel will not be able to go with Team India on this tour. So for this, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has made a temporary arrangement and appointed Sairaj Bahutule, associated with the National Cricket Academy (NCA), as the interim coach of the team for this tour. It is worth noting that the formalities for Morkel to become the new bowler of the Indian cricket team are almost complete, but his appointment has not been done yet. Due to this, he will not be able to go on the Sri Lanka tour with Team India. However, there is every possibility of him joining the Indian cricket team before the two-match Test series against Bangladesh in September. So, if we tell you the reason for Morkel not being able to join the team at this time, then he will not be able to join the Indian cricket team for the Sri Lanka tour due to personal reasons. Bahutule will be part of the coaching staff led by Gautam Gambhir, and it is likely that either Abhishek Nair or Ryan ten Doeschate will be seen as assistant coaches on the tour.

Karthik further said- Secondly, he will bring a smart mind to this Indian team. He is a very sharp and fiery person.

On this tour, the Indian team will be seen playing a three-match T20 and a three-match ODI series. India’s tour will start from July 27.

He said that Kohli always wants to hit boundaries on Shami and I want to get him out. “Virat and I always challenge each other. He loves to play silky shots, while I always aim to get him out during the nets. The bonding and friendship is clearly visible. It takes hard work and focus to get your friends out in the nets.”
“What else do you want from me now….” Mohammed Shami made big allegations against the team management and Virat Kohli!

Reflecting on the 2019 World Cup, Shami said- “In 2019 I didn’t play the first 4-5 games. In the next game, I took a hattrick, then a five-wicket haul and then a four-wicket haul. The same thing happened in 2023. I missed the first few games and then took a fifer, then a four-wicket haul and then a five-wicket haul.” Let us tell you that he was included in the playing eleven only after all-rounder Hardik Pandya was ruled out due to injury. Shami further said, “One thing I keep thinking is that every team needs players who can perform well. I took 13 wickets in three matches.

Shami further said on this- “I neither have questions nor do I have answers. I can only prove myself when I get a chance. You gave me a chance and I took 13 wickets in three matches. Then we lost to New Zealand.”

When Mohammad Shami commented on nepotism in the selection of Pakistan team, this former captain got angry
Shami made this comment on Shubhankar Mishra’s YouTube channel. Mohammed Shami and Inzamam-Ul-Haq (Image Credit- Twitter Indian cricket team’s experienced fast bowler Mohammed Shami recently made a big statement regarding the selection of the Pakistan cricket team. In this statement, Shami raised questions on former Pakistani player and selector Inzamam-ul-Haq. Shami said that he was biased in the selection of his nephew Imam-ul-Haq in the team. Shami made this statement while speaking in a podcast of Shubhankar Mishra, “I don’t understand why people feel the need to target others (India). Improve your selection, and send a good team. They can do this, because the talent is present in them. But they should do one thing, if you want to run a team based on personal relationships, then make it a family team.” On the other hand, now this statement of Shami has not been liked by former Pakistan cricket team opener and captain Salman Butt, and he has given a big reaction. Butt says that Imam’s selection has been done on the basis of his performance, not because his uncle was a selector. Salman Butt gave a big statement Let us tell you that after this reaction of Mohammad Shami, Salman Butt said through a video uploaded on his YouTube channel – Pakistan should not select teams on the basis of relationships and friendship. Mohammad Shami’s comment was made targeting Inzamam-ul-Haq. But I think the statement about him selecting the team on the basis of personal relations is wrong. Butt further said – This is a wrong statement, because if you look at Imam’s records, he came into the Pakistan team on the basis of his performance, not because of any relationship. He was dropped from the team after his performance flopped. Shami’s comment on Inzamam was against decorum, and he should not say such things.
