There is a huge shortage of local talent in the batting and bowling departments – Hathurusinghe Chandika Hathurusinghe (Image Credit- Twitter X) Bangladesh cricket team head coach Chandika Hathurusinghe has given a big statement regarding Bangladesh Premier League (BPL). Hathurusinghe has said that he often switches off the TV whenever he watches BPL. He also says that there is a huge shortage of local talent in the batting and bowling departments in the tournament. Already settled domestic players keep making headlines from time to time, which is not helping the uncapped players. Chandika Hathurusinghe gave a big statement Let us tell you that Hathurusinghe, quoting ESPN Cricinfo regarding Bangladesh Premier League, said – We (Bangladesh) do not have the right tournament. It sounds a bit strange, but sometimes I turn off the TV when I’m watching the Bangladesh Premier League. Some players are not even of the (required) class. I have a big problem with the current system. ICC needs to take action in this. There should be some rules. A player is playing one tournament and then he is playing another tournament. It has become like a circus. Players will talk about opportunities, but that is not correct. People will lose interest, I have also lost interest. Hathurusinghe further said – I have a way that we have a tournament before BPL, but in this tournament some of the best players do not play, because the franchises do not want this, they do what they have to do. Then how can you expect that Bangladesh will not lose to other teams. I am fighting an uphill battle right now.
Trent Bridge Cricket Ground will be rejuvenated, the experience of watching matches will be better
Trent Bridge has hosted some historic matches Trent Bridge cricket ground (Image Credit- Twitter Keeping in mind the future cricket needs, Nottingham Country Cricket Club (NCCC) has decided to rejuvenate the Trent Bridge cricket ground. So after this, there is a possibility of partial demolition and replacement of the existing pavilion in the stadium. After these changes, the club hopes that the match experience for the spectators as well as the stakeholders is going to be great. So these changes in the stadium are being made keeping in mind the cricket, especially Test cricket, to be played between 2025 and 2031. After this new construction, it is expected that the audience experience is going to be better. It is noteworthy that the current design of the Trent Bridge Cricket Ground was based on a report prepared by Rushcliffe Borough Council in the 1880s. However, now this stadium is not able to match the modern standards of England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB). For example, catering service and wheelchair facility etc. According to the plan prepared by the club, an attempt has been made to modernize the cricket played here. If all goes well, as per the proposed plan, the new pavilion could have 6 floors, with a large parking space, which can cater to the needs of the growing teams and support staff. After this new construction, with excellent club cricket being conducted at the ground, many big matches of international cricket are also likely to be held here. Current design changes to the stadium include replacement of seating arrangements and installation of storm drains around the stadium. After these changes the stadium will be able to meet the demands of the changing game of cricket. Well, it will be worth seeing that after how much time will the process of new construction in the stadium get the green signal from the ECB?

Actually, Somerset had released the video of Bashir bowling against the brilliant spin player Alastair Cook from the social media platform ‘X’. In that video, Bashir, who was 19 years old at that time, had completely dodged the legendary batsman. After watching the video clip, Stokes immediately forwarded it to a WhatsApp group in which head coach Brendon McCullum and ECB managing director Rob Key were connected. I forwarded that clip: Stokes Talking about that moment, the England Test captain said, “To be honest, the first live glimpse I got was at the bash in Abu Dhabi, the first time I saw him was on Twitter. The County Championship had posted a short clip of his bowling against Sir Alistair. I’m in a WhatsApp group with Kessie and Baz. I actually forwarded that clip and said, take a look at this, this is something we can work with on our India tour. I saw some. The height from which he bowled, it was very clear that there was a lot of action, a lot of spin on the ball. This was something that I saw and thought, this could be very good for India. I have played a lot of games here. As a batsman, you know what is difficult to face, especially from a spin perspective.
