DTVHINDISunil Gavaskar got angry again on this decision taken during the Australia tour, said- “Are you going to play or rest…”
Later this year, Team India will play a five-Test long series under the Border Gavaskar Trophy on Australian soil. Sunil Gavaskar Jay Shah (Source X) Team India’s adventure in the Test format will begin in another month. India will play two Tests against Bangladesh from September 19 and three Tests against New Zealand from October 16 on home ground. After this, Team India will play a long series of five Test matches under the Border Gavaskar Trophy on Australian soil later this year. After winning the last two Border-Gavaskar series on Kangaroo land, India is entering the ring as a strong contender this time too. It is known that Team India has been winning this trophy continuously since 2016. India has hosted the trophy in 2016/17, 2022/23, Australia in 2018/19, 2020/21. But for the first time since 1992, India will play a five-Test series against Australia. At the same time, the practice match on the Australia tour was reduced to two days. Sunil Gavaskar is upset with BCCI India’s legendary cricketer Sunil Gavaskar has objected to this. He said that he is disappointed to hear the news that the warm-up match against Australia’s Prime Minister’s playing 11 before the series has been reduced to two days. He said that due to this the young players will miss out on important training. On the other hand, this will also create a situation where senior players will not go for practice. But he believes that young players will get more experience from first-class cricket than a two-day practice match. Gavaskar said that the main purpose of the Australia tour is to play cricket and not to relax. Gavaskar also suggested that the BCCI should take steps to extend the practice match to three days and give a chance to young players. “Australia is thirsty for revenge. If India has to score a hat-trick of series wins on Kangaroo soil, then it will have to be cautious. But there is still time to make the warm-up match three days long. Young players should be given a chance in this practice. This will help the young players to defeat the world test champion Australia.”

Why did Australia send a message to Sean Abbott to join the team quickly before the UK tour – what is the matter?
Injured Australian fast bowler Spencer Johnson has been ruled out of the T20 series against Scotland and England, replaced by Sean Abbott Sean Abbott (Image Source: Getty Images) Australian fast bowler Spencer Johnson has been ruled out of the upcoming T20 matches against Scotland and England in the UK due to an injury he suffered while representing The Oval Invincibles in ‘The Hundred’ tournament. Cricket Australia has called up Sean Abbott to replace the injured Spencer Johnson in the team. Sean Abbott was originally selected to be part of the five-match ODI series against England but now he may be included for both formats and the series. How has Spencer Johnson been doing lately? During his recent stint in ‘The Hundred’, Johnson has managed to grab only two wickets in six matches. He also returned an impressive spell of 1/10 in 20 balls against Northern Superchargers. Johnson has represented Australia in five T20Is and one ODI since making his debut against South Africa last year. The young pacer has quickly gained recognition in the BBL with Brisbane Heat and is therefore considered a strong contender to replace Australian pacer Mitchell Starc in the T20 squad. Sean Abbott has created a stir in BBL Mitchell Starc has been given a break from the T20 series against Scotland and England, he will be available for the ODIs. On the other hand, Pat Cummins will not take part in the entire tour. Josh Hazlewood has been included in both the T20 and ODI teams. That means now Sean Abbott will be the second or third main bowler of the team. Talking about Sean Abbott, he has been somewhat unfortunate, he has played 15 T20 matches for Australia. Sean Abbott has not represented his country much in this format. However, Abbott’s impressive record in the Big Bash League is unmatched, with 165 wickets to his name, making him the highest wicket-taker in the tournament’s history. In addition, he has showcased his skills in ‘The Hundred’, taking nine wickets in seven matches for Birmingham Phoenix. Australia T20I squads against Scotland and England: Mitchell Marsh (captain), Sean Abbott, Xavier Bartlett, Cooper Connolly, Tim David, Nathan Ellis, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Cameron Green, Aaron Hardie, Josh Hazlewood, Travis Head, Josh Inglis (wicketkeeper), Marcus Stoinis, Adam Zampa.

Shardul Thakur (Image Source: Getty Images) India are gearing up for the five-match Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia later this year, which is part of the ongoing World Test Championship cycle. The last series in Australia holds a special place in the hearts of Indian fans; despite all the odds, India pulled off a memorable 2-1 series win, including a historic win at the Gabba in Brisbane, Australia’s ‘fortress’. However, India is set for a long Test season and aims to qualify for a third consecutive WTC final. But while Team India is preparing to go to Australia, Indian fast bowler Shardul Thakur, who was part of the team during the last tour of Australia, has made some worrying revelations. During a public event, Shardul spoke in detail about the problems the Indian team was facing off the field throughout the tour. Team India had to face these problems during the Australia tour Shardul revealed that the facilities provided to the injury-hit team were very poor. Notably, the then Indian captain Virat Kohli left the team after the first Test due to personal reasons, some key players like Mohammed Shami, KL Rahul, Ravindra Jadeja, Umesh Yadav and Jasprit Bumrah suffered injuries throughout the series. “The way they treated us was terrible,” Thakur said, recalling that visit. “There was no housekeeping service at the hotel for four or five days. If you had to change bed sheets, you had to go up five floors,” he said.

That person was lying outright, he was saving himself by making things up in the media and hiding the fact that ‘we did not put any pressure on the Indian team and gave them everything they wanted.’ But I know the truth.” “Virat (Kohli) had left – and Ajinkya Rahane and Ravi Shastri were regularly fighting with Cricket Australia to give us the services we were demanding,” he said. Shardul is currently away from Team India Shardul was not part of India’s last Test series against England at home but he played the first Test of the team’s previous tour to South Africa earlier this year.
Big Breaking: Due to protests in the country, Bangladesh will leave for Pakistan tour 5 days before the scheduled time
Bangladesh cricket team will now leave for Pakistan tour five days before the scheduled time. Bangladesh Cricket Team (Photo Source: Getty Images) The Bangladesh cricket team is going to tour Pakistan in August-September for a two-match Test series. The first match between the two teams will be played in Rawalpindi from August 21. At the same time, the second Test will be played in Karachi from August 30. Meanwhile, big news is coming that the team will now leave for the tour five days before the scheduled time. This decision has been taken in view of the current situation in Bangladesh. Bangladesh team will leave for Pakistan on August 12 According to Cricbuzz report, Bangladesh cricket team will leave for Pakistan tour on 12 August. Pakistan Cricket Board wants to host Bangladesh for an extended period in Rawalpindi due to the ongoing protests in Bangladesh. The PCB confirmed that the Bangladesh team will train at the Gaddafi Stadium from August 14-16 before moving to Islamabad on August 17. The team will then practice at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium from August 18-20 before the first match on August 21. Happy that BCB accepted our proposal- Salman Naseer Pakistan Cricket Board’s Chief Operating Officer Salman Naseer said, Sports is not just about winning and losing, it is also about camaraderie. I am confident that the extra training sessions in Lahore will allow the players to showcase their best skills and talent on the global stage. We are delighted that the BCB has accepted our offer and we look forward to welcoming the Bangladesh Men’s Cricket Team to Lahore on August 13. This will give them an additional three days to train before moving to Islamabad. Foreign coaching staff does not want to be a part of practice sessions Bangladesh’s foreign coaching staff has objected to being a part of the practice sessions as their embassy has banned them from travelling due to the political situation in the country. A BCB official told Cricbuzz, Given the travel restrictions, we cannot force them (foreign coaching staff) to attend training sessions. The fact that many police stations in the city are still not functioning is a matter of concern. We are working on sending the team to Pakistan first.
Sri Lanka raised security concerns about England Test tour due to ongoing riots in UK, know what was said?
Sri Lanka has proposed a 3 match Test series against England from 21 August Srilanka Cricket Team (Image Credit- Twitter X) Sri Lanka’s men’s cricket team is going to tour England very soon for a three-match Test series. However, before going on this tour, the team has expressed concern over the security situation in England in view of the anti-immigrant riots that broke out in the country. It is worth noting that a three-match Test series is proposed between Sri Lanka and England from August 21. So when Sri Lanka has raised concerns about security, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has responded to Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) and the team by assuring them about the security arrangements. So one of the team players who is currently in the UK, told ESPN Cricinfo – It seems that most of the issues are not close to the level where we are but everyone is still a bit worried about the situation. We can’t really go out for dinner or anything like that. We mostly stay in the hotel. Nobody wants to get into trouble and get beaten up. We have asked the board to arrange some security for us till the main team arrives, but we haven’t received any response yet. On the other hand, when Sri Lanka Cricket Team Manager Mahinda Halangoda summoned the ECB regarding security, they responded immediately. Halangoda said- I raised the issue of security with them, but the ECB responded very quickly and sent us their comprehensive security arrangements. We will also have a security liaison with them on the tour. Full schedule of Sri Lanka cricket team’s UK tour 1st Test: August 21-25 – Emirates Old Trafford, Manchester 2nd Test: August 29-September 2 – Lord’s, London 3rd Test: September 6-10 – Kingston Oval, London
Aakash Chopra slammed the management for the continuous changes in the batting lineup of the Indian team during the Sri Lanka tour
India performed poorly in the ODI series and were defeated by Sri Lanka 2–0. Aakash Chopra (Photo Source: Twitter) India’s tour of Sri Lanka ended on 7 August. In this tour, India clean swept Sri Lanka 3-0 in the T20 series. However, India’s performance in the ODI series was quite poor and Sri Lanka defeated them 2-0. Under the coaching of Gautam Gambhir, the Indian team could not perform well in the ODI format. In this ODI series, it was seen that a lot of changes have been made in the batting lineup of the Indian players. Former player Aakash Chopra put forward his point of view regarding this. In the T20 series, Suryakumar Yadav, Rinku Singh and Riyan Parag also bowled very well and took important wickets for their team. However, in this tour, the players of the Indian team failed to bat well. Aakash Chopra said on his official YouTube channel, ‘Number four has now become a revolving door as we have given batting order to different players in every match. What is the idea of making a player like KL Rahul bat at number 6 or number seven? Why don’t you fight from the beginning? In India, KL Rahul was included in the playing XI for only two matches and then he was dropped. It was really surprising to see this because KL Rahul was in his plans since 2023. This is also because no one else had scored more runs than him in the middle order since 2023. Number four has now become a matter of concern for the Indian team Let us tell you, in the first ODI match played between India and Sri Lanka, Washington Sundar batted at number four but he scored only five runs. After this, Shivam Dubey was given this important responsibility in the second ODI but he could not even open his account and India lost the match. In the third and final ODI match, Rishabh Pant was included in the team and was given batting at number four but he returned to the pavilion after scoring good runs. The Indian team will have to give a chance to such a player in this order as soon as possible, who can bat well at number four and win the hearts of all the fans. 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?
