I think that after this series he will completely establish himself in the Indian Test team – statement of the former veteran cricketer.
Jaiswal, who scored 171 runs in his debut match against West Indies, could score only 50 runs during the recently concluded two-Test series in South Africa. In this series, Shubman Gill, Indian captain Rohit Sharma and Shreyas Iyer were able to score only 74, 60 and 41 runs respectively. Gavaskar also backed Shreyas Iyer to repeat the 2023 ODI World Cup success in the upcoming Test series. They said that, “In the World Cup, Shreyas Iyer batted brilliantly on Indian pitches, so I expect him to play like this at No. 5 in the Test series as well. He batted aggressively, was very cautious in the beginning and then added strokes later on. The pitch was a pleasure to read. I hope he repeats it.” In the 2023 ODI World Cup, Shreyas Iyer scored 530 runs in 11 innings, scoring two centuries and three half-centuries. The middle-order batsman has scored 707 runs in 12 Test matches at an average of 39.28, which includes one century and five fifties.

Zaheer Khan gave a surprising statement about the England team and their baseball approach.
Zaheer Khan. (Photo Source: Twitter) In a special show titled ‘Insiders Preview India vs England’ on JioCinema, Zaheer Khan, Parthiv Patel and Pragyan Ojha provided an important insight into the upcoming series. He told what fans can expect from the exciting tournament ahead. They discussed England’s point of view. During this, he also shared his opinion regarding the importance of baseball, pitches and toss. Zaheer Khan: These days you don’t often see five Test match series happening. Baseball will remain in focus and we’ll see if England’s approach remains the same. The kind of pitches we will play on will definitely be another point of discussion. But both the teams will be desperate to prove their superiority. 2) Baseball has been quite successful but has not been tested in India yet Pragyan Ojha: Baseball involves playing fearless cricket and England try to gain a psychological edge by using this strategy. It will be difficult to implement baseball in India because it will not be easy to play Indian spinners or Jasprit Bumrah and other fast bowlers. 3) Keeping in mind the World Test Championship, with what approach will India enter this series? Parthiv Patel: I think the Indian team will aim for 5-0. I think they need a 4-0 win to top the WTC standings. If we look at the last cycle, India has won many tests abroad. I don’t think India needs to change its approach. It is the visiting teams who will have to come up with different strategies. It remains to be seen whether baseball will work here or not. If the ball spins, I don’t think it will work here because India have quality spinners including Ashwin, Jadeja, Axar and Kuldeep. 4) After defeating Pakistan 3-0, with what confidence will England enter this series? Pragyan Ojha: I think he will be very confident with the strategy that England has adopted. But they need a backup plan. Because the situation will not be the same as it was in Pakistan. The wickets were slightly better and suited the batsmen. The conditions here will be favorable for spinners. So how they deal with it will be very important. His performance in the first Test will decide the direction of the series. 5) What kind of pitches will be seen in this series? Parthiv Patel: I think every ground will have its own character. We can see similar tracks in Hyderabad and Vizag also. In Rajkot, if they prepare a good wicket, we can see a lot of runs being scored. Their fast bowlers may hope to get some help in Dharamsala. Winning the toss will also be important for them. If they lose the toss it will be very difficult for them to make a comeback.

The talent is there, the form is also there, but still these five match winners will not get a place in the team for the T20 World Cup.
T20 World Cup will be played from June 1, 2024. KL Rahul (Photo Source: Twitter) The T20 World Cup will be played in June 2024. This marquee tournament will be played hosted by West Indies and United States. Indian fans will try to end their ICC trophy drought that has lasted for more than a decade. With less than five months left for the T20 World Cup, all the players are ready to give their best performance in the coming months to make a place in the team. Rohit Sharma has made a comeback in the three-match T20 (T20I) series against Afghanistan on home ground. Apart from this, another senior veteran Virat Kohli has also returned. On one hand, some players would like to take advantage of the opportunity ahead of the T20I event, while on the other hand, some big names may be missing from India’s 2024 T20 World Cup squad as the selectors have dropped them from the T20I squad. Five players who might not feature in India’s T20 World squad 5) Ruturaj Gaikwad Ruturaj Gaikwad (Pic Source-Twitter) In the five-match T20 series against Australia in November-December Ruturaj Gaikwad Performed brilliantly with the bat. In the third T20I played at Barsapara Stadium, he scored an unbeaten 123 runs and scored his first international century. Despite seeing his excellent performance, the team management did not give him a chance in the playing eleven in the T20 series in South Africa. With Rohit’s return to the team, Gaikwad is unlikely to get a place in the 2024 T20 World Cup squad as the team management is likely to give chances to Shubhman Gill and Ruturaj Gaikwad ahead of Gaikwad.
Before the fourth T20I, this star player of New Zealand got infected with Corona, there was panic in the team!
New Zealand’s star opening batsman Devon Conway has recently been found Covid positive. Due to this, he has also been ruled out of the fourth T20 match to be played against Pakistan at Hagley Oval, Christchurch. The left-handed player was found Covid positive on Thursday and is currently in isolation at the team hotel in Christchurch. According to a statement issued by New Zealand Cricket (NZC), senior Canterbury batsman, Chad Bowes has been called up as Conway’s replacement. Conway is not the only one who has been told to isolate. New Zealand’s bowling coach Andre Adams has also been infected with Corona virus for this series and he has also been asked to isolate. Mitchell Santner was also Covid positive before Devon Conway Let us tell you that just before the start of the series, New Zealand all-rounder Mitchell Santner was also found Covid positive. But later he rejoined the team after his test came negative. Mitchell Santner is currently commanding the team in the absence of injured Kane Williamson. Let us tell you that, New Zealand has already won this five-match bilateral series and hence, Conway’s unavailability will not affect the outcome of the competition. However, the Kiwis would like to win the series to improve their T20I record at home. The New Zealand team, which has already won the series by winning the first three matches of the series, will try to whitewash Pakistan. Whereas Pakistan will try to save this match. Ever since Shaheen Shah Afridi took command of Pakistan’s T-20 team, the team is looking for its first win. While on one hand Babar Azam has scored consecutive half-centuries in all three matches, the other batsmen are not able to bat as per expectations.
