On the other hand, before the start of this series, former cricketers and cricket experts are continuously making statements. So now a new name has been added to this list of Australia’s legendary wicketkeeper batsman Adam Gilchrist. Gilchrist has said that the Australian management can play wicketkeeper batsman Josh English in the top order. Adam Gilchrist gave a big statement Let us tell you that recently Cricket Australia has announced a 13-member team for the first match against India during BGT. After the announcement of this team, Adam Gilchrist in a discussion with Fox Cricket said- English is in the team as a reserve batsman, which Australia traditionally does not do in home conditions. I think McSweeney will open, but is he sticking to last year’s policy? We want our six best batsmen in Australia to play in the top six. Nathan McSweeney is a good looking player. They see his game being a little more suited to opening batting, while Josh English knows how to attack, so keep him in the top order. This is probably the best way to protect him. Australian team for the first match of BGT series against India Pat Cummins (captain), Scott Boland, Alex Carey, Josh Hazlewood, Travis Head, Josh English, Usman Khawaja, Marnus Labuschagne, Nathan Lyon, Mitch Marsh, Nathan McSweeney, Steve Smith, Mitchell Starc.

IPL 2024: Rishabh Pant should have been fined for continuously arguing with field umpire: Adam Gilchrist
Adam Gilchrist believes that Rishabh Pant should have been fined for his long conversation with the field umpire during the match played against Lucknow Super Giants. RISHABH PANT Former Australian wicketkeeper batsman Adam Gilchrist believes that Rishabh Pant should have been fined for his long conversation with the field umpire during the match played against Lucknow Super Giants. Let us tell you, Lucknow Super Giants played a match against Delhi Capitals on 12 April. Delhi Capitals won this match. In the fourth over of Lucknow’s innings, Delhi team’s fast bowler Ishant Sharma bowled a wide. The field umpire gave it wide but Rishabh Pant asked for a review. It was seen in the replay that it was a wide ball. However, Rishabh Pant was not at all happy with this decision of the third umpire and was seen arguing with the field umpire for a long time. Adam Gilchrist presented his side regarding this. Speaking on Cricbuzz, Adam Gilchrist said, ‘Today I saw another example where it is very important for the umpire to take control of the match. To take the game forward they should do their work well. There was a lot of debate about whether Rishabh had asked for a review or not. But three to four minutes of the match were wasted due to this matter. I think it was a very simple conversation and it doesn’t matter what Rishabh is demanding or what other players are saying about it but the umpire should have said that it is all over now and Let’s move forward in the match. But if he had kept talking continuously then he should definitely have been fined. Delhi Capitals won an important match In this spectacular match of IPL 2024, Lucknow Super Giants, batting first, scored 167 runs losing 7 wickets in 20 overs. On behalf of the team, young batsman Ayush Badoni batted very well and played an important inning of 55* runs in 35 balls with the help of 5 fours and 1 six.
