Sanjay Manjrekar said something special about Rohit Sharma’s captaincy Cricket commentator Sanjay Manjrekar while speaking on ESPNcricinfo said, This is the legacy that Rohit Sharma will leave behind as captain. He thinks so. A strong team, one of the top-2 teams in the world, showed a champion approach, realizing that a lot of time had been wasted. And he leads by example, just like he did in the 50-over World Cup. So, this is what Rohit Sharma will leave as his contribution to Indian cricket. He was happy to put his wicket at stake- Manjrekar Indian captain Rohit Sharma put the team above himself, he was ready to put his wicket at stake to score quick runs. Sanjay Manjrekar is very happy with Rohit Sharma’s approach. You just do something for the team and play to win. He does not face any problem in this process, like in the 50 over World Cup… he did not score a big century. Even here, he was happy to put his wicket on the line and suddenly we have a Test match that India can win. You have to appreciate Rohit Sharma for this.

KL Rahul (Photo Source: X/Twitter) Indian player KL Rahul was not a part of the champion Indian team of T20 World Cup 2024. KL Rahul played the last match for India in this format during the T20 World Cup 2022. Rahul also did not get a chance in the T20 series of Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka tour, which clearly indicates that the management no longer sees him as a T20 format player. However, former Indian player Dodda Ganesh believes that KL Rahul can still make a comeback in the shortest format of the game. However, Rahul needs to change his intent. He can still make a comeback if he improves his approach- Dodda Ganesh Dodda Ganesh tweeted on social media and wrote, If KL Rahul improves his approach in T20, he can still make a comeback and perform well for the Indian team in T20 Internationals. He is such a good talent that he will be missed for a long time. If KL Rahul rectifies his approach in the T20s he can still make a comeback and have a great stint with the Indian team in the T20Is. He is too good a talent to be missing out for long #DoddaMathu #SLvIND — Dodda Ganesh दौद्ग गानेश (@doddaganesha) August 1, 2024 KL Rahul scored 520 runs at a strike rate of 136.13 while playing for Lucknow Super Giants in IPL 2024. It is difficult to choose between KL Rahul and Pant- Rohit Sharma The Indian team is currently on a tour of Sri Lanka. After winning the T20 series, the team is now ready to play the ODI series from August 2 under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma. In the series against Sri Lanka, who among KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant should be given a place in the playing 11 as a wicketkeeper batsman is going to be a big headache for coach Gautam Gambhir and captain Rohit Sharma. KL Rahul has shown a great game for India in the ODI World Cup 2023. At the same time, Rishabh Pant made a comeback in international cricket from the T20 World Cup 2024 after injury, he is now ready for a bang comeback in the ODI format as well. Speaking ahead of the first ODI against Sri Lanka, Rohit Sharma said, It is difficult to choose between KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant. Both are match winners in their own way. But it is a good problem and I want such problems. We will decide tomorrow.
“This is the template we want to play with”- Suryakumar explains India’s approach in the T20 format
India’s newly appointed T20 captain Suryakumar Yadav stressed the importance of maintaining a positive mindset and fearless approach after his team’s consecutive victories against Sri Lanka. Let us tell you that under the captaincy of Suryakumar Yadav, India has taken an unassailable 2-0 lead in the T20 series against Sri Lanka. Suryakumar has performed brilliantly with the bat on both days. The Indian team started the T20 series with a 43-run win on Saturday. They then won the second T20I by seven wickets at Pallekele on Sunday. Meanwhile, in the press conference after the match, Surya talked about the team’s future strategy in the shortest format and how Team India will approach the format in the upcoming matches. This is the ‘template’ we want to move forward with – Suryakumar Yadav Suryakumar Yadav said after the match, “We talked about what kind of cricket we want to play before the start of the tournament. This is the ‘template’ we want to move forward with.” He further said, “A score of less than 160 would have been good in bad weather. The rain helped us. The way the boys batted was fantastic.” Now the result of the last match of the series will not matter, so when Suryakumar was asked if there is a possibility of some players from the ‘reserve bench’ getting a chance, he said, “We will sit and decide. I am very happy for the boys. They performed very well in difficult circumstances.” India’s googly specialist Ravi Bishnoi was happy that his ‘wrong on’ ball is proving to be effective for him. Ravi Bishnoi, who became the player of the match in the second T20 against Sri Lanka, said after the match, “The pitch was a little different from yesterday. Today in the first innings it helped the spinners. I stuck to my plan. I like to bowl the ‘wrong on’ ball. It is a good responsibility because it means that the captain and management trust me.”
“What you did was completely beyond my understanding…”- Former Indian cricketer said on RR’s batting approach.
After electing to bat first in the match played in Chennai on Sunday, May 12, RR set a target of 142 runs for CSK. The host team chased the target with five wickets and 10 balls remaining and reached the third position in the points table. In a video shared on her YouTube channel, Chopra said that Rajasthan Royals His timid batting approach was not understandable. Aakash Chopra gave a big statement on RR’s batting approach. Aakash Chopra said, “I could not understand this match. I will say this very honestly. Rajasthan won the toss and elected to bat. Since it was an afternoon game, it made sense to bat first. After that, you were 131/3 before the start of 20 overs. The fast bowlers took three wickets and the spinners did nothing.” The former Indian opener further said, “So I am trying to understand that if this pitch was slow, the batsmen should have dismissed the spinners. It did not happen. Simarjeet (Singh) took wickets and none of the batsmen scored runs. If you score 131 runs in 19 overs, what you did was completely beyond my understanding.” Chopra pointed out that Rajasthan Royals have not yet qualified for the playoffs, which seemed to be a formality even though they had won eight of their first nine matches. Considering that the champions of the inaugural season of IPL are still set to qualify, whether they believe they will be able to make it to the top 2 now is a big question.
‘T20 approach does not work in Ranji Trophy’ Sachin Baby gave a big statement regarding success in first class cricket
After not getting much opportunities in IPL, Sachin Baby has been performing continuously for Kerala in Ranji Trophy. Sachin Baby. (Photo Source: Instagram) Sachin Baby, who plays domestic cricket for Kerala, is performing well in the domestic cricket tournament Ranji Trophy despite losing in the glamor of IPL. Let us tell you that 35 year old Sachin has scored 830 runs in 7 matches played in the ongoing Ranji Trophy and he is the second highest run scorer in the tournament so far. So Sachin Baby performed brilliantly during the entire season. However, his team Kerala failed to make it to the quarter-finals. On the other hand, now Sachin has given a big statement by taking inspiration from former Indian fast bowler S Sreesanth’s attitude of making a comeback after the ban. Sachin Baby gave a big statement Let us tell you that in an interview given to Times of India, Sachin said – Sreesanth played cricket at the highest level. Unfortunately he was banned for a few years. After this he returned to first class cricket at the age of 39 and performed well before retiring. Sri Sanka’s never-say-die attitude has been a great inspiration for me. Sachin further said- I know that cricket is changing at this time. But your T20 approach will not work in Ranji Trophy. This may happen once or twice, but when you play 10 innings in a season, you may fail 8 times because of this approach. Our batsmen should learn the importance of biding time on the wicket. The best example of this is Akshay Chandran. He changed his approach and scored valuable runs for his team. Also, let us tell you that Sachin, who made his IPL debut in 2013, has been able to play only 19 IPL matches, in which he has scored 144 runs. So the last time he was seen in IPL was in the year 2021.

Zaheer Khan gave a surprising statement about the England team and their baseball approach.
Zaheer Khan. (Photo Source: Twitter) In a special show titled ‘Insiders Preview India vs England’ on JioCinema, Zaheer Khan, Parthiv Patel and Pragyan Ojha provided an important insight into the upcoming series. He told what fans can expect from the exciting tournament ahead. They discussed England’s point of view. During this, he also shared his opinion regarding the importance of baseball, pitches and toss. Zaheer Khan: These days you don’t often see five Test match series happening. Baseball will remain in focus and we’ll see if England’s approach remains the same. The kind of pitches we will play on will definitely be another point of discussion. But both the teams will be desperate to prove their superiority. 2) Baseball has been quite successful but has not been tested in India yet Pragyan Ojha: Baseball involves playing fearless cricket and England try to gain a psychological edge by using this strategy. It will be difficult to implement baseball in India because it will not be easy to play Indian spinners or Jasprit Bumrah and other fast bowlers. 3) Keeping in mind the World Test Championship, with what approach will India enter this series? Parthiv Patel: I think the Indian team will aim for 5-0. I think they need a 4-0 win to top the WTC standings. If we look at the last cycle, India has won many tests abroad. I don’t think India needs to change its approach. It is the visiting teams who will have to come up with different strategies. It remains to be seen whether baseball will work here or not. If the ball spins, I don’t think it will work here because India have quality spinners including Ashwin, Jadeja, Axar and Kuldeep. 4) After defeating Pakistan 3-0, with what confidence will England enter this series? Pragyan Ojha: I think he will be very confident with the strategy that England has adopted. But they need a backup plan. Because the situation will not be the same as it was in Pakistan. The wickets were slightly better and suited the batsmen. The conditions here will be favorable for spinners. So how they deal with it will be very important. His performance in the first Test will decide the direction of the series. 5) What kind of pitches will be seen in this series? Parthiv Patel: I think every ground will have its own character. We can see similar tracks in Hyderabad and Vizag also. In Rajkot, if they prepare a good wicket, we can see a lot of runs being scored. Their fast bowlers may hope to get some help in Dharamsala. Winning the toss will also be important for them. If they lose the toss it will be very difficult for them to make a comeback.
