Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and Graeme Smith (Pic Source-Twitter) Recently, the Board of Control for Cricket in India has announced the team for the three-match T20 series against Afghanistan. This T20 team will be captained by Rohit Sharma while Virat Kohli will also be seen playing in this series. Let us tell you, after a long gap of 13 months, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have returned to the Indian T20 team. Both these players had performed very well in the ICC ODI World Cup 2023 and that is why the team was able to make its place in the final. However, India had to face defeat against Australia in the final. At present, the eyes of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will be on the T20 series against Afghanistan. Former South African captain Graeme Smith has given his stand regarding the return of both these players to the Indian team. Speaking to ANI, Graeme Smith said, ‘Looking at the amount of cricket the Indian team plays, it can be said that it is important to give rest to all the players from time to time and new players should also be given a chance. We have seen that many young players from India perform very well in the IPL and they have left their mark in the T20 format as well. I think the coach and selection panel should understand what the players need and what kind of players they need on which pitches. It is not so easy to select players with the kind of talent India has: Graeme Smith The former South African captain further said, ‘India has no dearth of talent and that is why they face a lot of difficulty in selecting players. According to me, along with the experienced players, some young players should also be included and only then the team will perform well. Let us tell you, Rohit and Virat had earlier played a T20 match against Australia in the World Cup. Afghanistan has also announced its team for this tour. Now it remains to be seen whether Afghanistan can give competition to India in its own backyard or not?

Mohammed Shami increases BCCI’s problems, may be out of test series against England

Mohammed Shami. (Photo Source: Twitter) Team India’s fast bowler Mohammed Shami may remain out of the first two Tests of the five-match series against England starting from January 25. He recently revealed that he played with pain during the ODI World Cup 2023, after which he was advised to take a break from the game. Currently, he is recovering from an ankle injury, which also ruled him out of the two-match Test series against South Africa. According to reports, the 33-year-old player has not started bowling in the nets yet. BCCI officials are hopeful that the fast bowler will undergo his fitness test at the NCA before making a place in the Test team. If he passes the test, Shami will join the team in Rajkot for the third Test. Will not be able to play the first two test matches against England – BCCI official A BCCI source was quoted by the Indian Express as saying, “Shami has not even started bowling yet, he will have to go to NCA to prove his fitness. It is difficult for him to play in the first two Tests against England. For the first two Test matches against England, Prasidh Krishna or Mukesh Kumar can be included in the playing eleven in place of Shami. In the second Test against the Proteas at Newlands, Cape Town, Kumar performed well with the ball, while Prasidh was decent. Captain Rohit Sharma was not happy with his performance in the first Test of the series in Centurion. Except Shami, all other Test cricketers are fit for the blockbuster series against England. The team is set to reunite in Hyderabad after the series against Afghanistan. The T2oI series against Afghanistan will end on January 17.

It was not right to throw a 19-year-old girl under the bus: Harmanpreet Kaur gave a befitting reply to the question of former Indian bowler

Before this over, the young player had given 23 runs in three overs. Indian women’s team captain Harmanpreet Kaur found Shreyanka Patil’s performance very poor and reprimanded the young bowler. If Shreyanka Patil had bowled well in her last over, things might have been different: Harmanpreet Kaur After the match was over, Harmanpreet Kaur said at the presentation, ‘If Shreyanka Patil had bowled well in her last over, perhaps things could have been different. We were continuously taking wickets in the middle overs and we were also getting chances which was a very positive thing. He still desperately needs changes in his game. We have played a lot of such matches but there are many young faces in the team. I have full hope that all the players will want to improve their game. Taking cognizance of Harmanpreet’s comments about her teammate, former Indian fast bowler Doda Ganesh criticized the Indian captain for throwing Shreyanka under the bus.
