So far, two Tests have been played between these two teams and New Zealand has won both of them. Team India’s performance so far in this Test series has been very poor.

Team India will also be surprised that we defeated them. We can beat them 3-0: Tom Blundell Tom Blundell further said, ‘The World Test Championship is also on the line and this will give us a lot of encouragement. Whatever may be the result, we would like to have a smile on our faces. Whatever we have achieved is a big highlight of our career. We are all fully prepared for the upcoming final test.

‘Is he worthy of becoming a player worth Rs 18 crore?’ Tom Moody does not want to see this player in MI team

Let us know about which player did Moody say this? Tom Moody (Image Credit- Twitter X) IPL 2025: Recently, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has issued new rules to retain players in IPL. According to the new rules, teams will be able to retain a maximum of 6 players in the team. In the new rule, BCCI has divided the retained players into three slabs. In which teams can retain two players for Rs 18 crore each, some players for Rs 14 crore and one player for a maximum amount of Rs 11 crore. However, now a big statement has come out from former Australian cricketer and former head coach of Sunrisers Hyderabad team Tom Moody regarding these new slabs. Regarding the retention of players in the Mumbai team, he has said whether Hardik Pandya is worth the retention of Rs 18 crore in the Mumbai team. Tom Moody gave a big statement Let us tell you that recently Tom Moody, quoting ESPN Cricinfo, said – Rohit Sharma must have been a little disappointed with the way things happened in the last season of IPL, and what happened in the last 6-12 months. For me, the 18 crore slab for Mumbai leaves Suryakumar Yadav and Jasprit Bumrah and Hardik at the 14 crore slab. It is up to the team to monitor his (Hardik) performance, form and fitness. But when you analyze these things with Hardik, does he deserve to be a player worth Rs 18 crore? Is he worth it? If you want to be a Rs 18 crore player, you have to be a real match winner and do it regularly. Hardik Pandya, during his trials and tribulations in the IPL last season, struggled with both fitness and performance. But this match winner could be Tilak Verma.

Recently, Ben scored 458 runs in the Logan Cup, Zimbabwe’s premier first-class competition, including two half-centuries and a century. “I have a deep connection to Zimbabwe” – Ben Curran Speaking to Cricbuzz, Ben said, “My accent is a bit of a mix of both England and Zimbabwe, but I have a deep connection to Zimbabwe. Most of my childhood memories are from there, and my parents are from there too. When we were young, I was probably four or five years old, we moved to Zimbabwe. I have spent most of my life there.” “What a story that would be” – Ben Curran Ben Curran realises that playing for Zimbabwe will be a great achievement for him. Interestingly, next year England will host Zimbabwe and Ben might have the opportunity to play against one of his brothers. He said, “What a story it would be if it happened. Probably a little weird, special and mixed emotions. But it would be even more special for my mother.” “I will complete the journey like my father” – Ben Curran Ben Curran’s journey is similar to that of his father Kevin Curran, who played cricket for both Zimbabwe and Northamptonshire. He said- “It’s a full circle. My dad played for Northampton and now I can play for Zimbabwe, where he played and coached.” Ben Curran is currently preparing for the upcoming season with the Mid-West Rhinos and is focused on performing consistently. He said- “I just have to perform and take care of what is in my control. That will give me the best chance to move forward.”

Tom Latham said that whenever the experienced players return to the team, it will be really great to watch them play but apart from that, the central contract of the players is a matter of concern at the moment. Tom Latham. (Photo by JEREMY NG/AFP via Getty Images) New Zealand’s performance in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 was very poor and the team could not secure its place in the semi-finals. After being out of this important tournament, veteran player Kane Williamson resigned from the post of captaincy and also withdrew from the central contract. Kane Williamson wants to participate in as much franchise cricket as possible but at the same time he has also said that whenever the New Zealand team needs him, he will be seen playing for his country.

Tom Latham, who may be seen captaining New Zealand in ODIs, gave his opinion on the recent trend. Tom Latham said that cricket is going in a different route for New Zealand at this time. He said that whenever experienced players return to the team, it will be really great to see them playing, but apart from that, the central contract of the players is a matter of concern at this time. According to ESPNcricinfo, Tom Latham said, ‘It seems to me that the direction New Zealand cricket is heading to right now is a slightly different place. Franchise leagues are coming up rapidly and this is affecting New Zealand cricket a lot. Everyone is in different boats and it seems very difficult to understand their future at this time.’ Tom Latham put forward his side regarding the captaincy of the New Zealand team Tom Latham further said, ‘We have a lot of cricket to play this summer and the Champions Trophy will also be held and I am eagerly waiting for it.

Getting the captaincy of the New Zealand team will be a big thing for me. For me the team comes first. If I get this opportunity, I will feel very happy. 5 Australian players who scored half-century in their debut IPL match IPL 2024: These 11 foreign players took crores of rupees but flopped IPL 2024: 5 players who hit the most sixes in the 19th and 20th overs of IPL 5 fastest bowlers in IPL history Who are the head coaches of all 10 teams in IPL 2024?
