DTVHINDIBGT 2024-25: “There is a strong need to play practice matches…”, Sanjay Manjrekar expressed concern over India’s current form.
Not having practice matches can make a difference, especially this time because of the form and confidence with which the team is going to Australia – Sanjay Manjrekar Team India & Sanjay Manjrekar (Photo Source: Getty Images) The Indian team is going to play the first match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test series against Australia from November 22 in Perth. The team is currently working hard for the first Test in Perth. Before the start of the series, it was announced that Team India would not play a single practice match. India had to suffer a humiliating 3-0 defeat against New Zealand in the last Test series. Let us tell you, after 24 years, a team clean-swept India at home. Team India’s form remains a matter of concern due to poor performance in the series against New Zealand. In view of this, former Indian cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar gave his opinion regarding India’s form and the need for practice matches. Practice matches are decreasing in recent times- Sanjay Manjrekar Before the Test series against Australia, the Indian team was scheduled to play an intra-squad match against India A, but it was cancelled. Sanjay Manjrekar feels that players like Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma would have liked to play some practice matches before the series, especially with the kind of form the team is in right now. The former cricketer also talked about India-A’s struggle against Australia-A despite being in form at home. Sanjay Manjrekar while speaking on ESPNcricinfo said, Not having practice matches could make a difference, especially this time with the kind of form and confidence the team is going into in Australia. The trend in recent times has been that practice matches are becoming less frequent, but on this particular tour we saw India A batsmen struggle despite being in form in Indian conditions. So yes, India was in dire need of playing more practice matches. Sanjay Manjrekar also emphasized on how the Indian team can take advantage of not playing practice matches. The team has often performed better when they have not played many practice matches before the series. India can respond to the fact that the team performed better when they were given fewer practice matches. In the 90s, we played many practice matches and still lost to Australia 0-4. I think the Indian batsmen are getting used to the conditions, but this time there are a lot of young players. “Maybe the previous team didn’t need the experience, but I think we needed some matches here, and I think Virat and Rohit would have liked to play practice matches.”

“Opening is difficult…not that bounce…”, big statement of former Australian cricketer regarding Yashasvi Jaiswal
Yashasvi is the second batsman to score the most runs in the World Test Championship cycle. Yashasvi Jaiswal & Brad Haddin (Photo Source: The five-match Test series between India and Australia is starting from November 22, the first match between the two teams will be played in Perth. Team India is touring Australia after a 3-0 defeat in the last Test series against New Zealand. The performance of the batsmen at home against New Zealand has been disappointing, which is a matter of concern. Meanwhile, the former Australian player has warned Team India before the start of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Haddin says that Indian batsmen will not be able to face Australia’s fast bowlers, especially Yashasvi Jaiswal. Brad Haddin said this about Yashvi Jaiswal Brad Haddin says that Indian opener Yashasvi Jaiswal is definitely a good player, but he has not toured Australia before so things will be difficult for him. Let us tell you, Yashasvi is the second batsman to score the most runs in the World Test Championship cycle. He has scored 1407 runs for India in 26 innings, which includes two double centuries. According to Times of India, Brad Haddin while speaking on LisTNR Sport Podcast said, I don’t think Indian batsmen will be able to face our fast bowlers. I know Jaiswal is a really good player, but he hasn’t toured Australia before, so I’m not sure whether he can handle the bounce or not. Opening in Perth is a tough job. India has won the last two Test series in Australia 2-1. The team would like to repeat history this time too, because the team can reach the final of the World Test Championship only by winning four of the upcoming five-match Test series. On the other hand, Australia is keen to defeat India in a Test series for the first time since 2014-15. Take a look at India’s squad for BGT 2024-25- Rohit Sharma (captain), Jasprit Bumrah (vice-captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Abhimanyu Easwaran, Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant (wicketkeeper), Sarfaraz Khan, Dhruv Jurel (wicketkeeper), Ravichandran Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, Mohammed Siraj, Akash Deep, Prasidh Krishna, Harshit Rana, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Washington Sundar
BGT 2024-25: I have 100 percent confidence that Team India will beat Australia in their own home: Chetan Sharma
The five-match Test series between Team India and Australia is starting from November 22. The first test between these two teams will be played in Perth. Team India (Photo Source: Getty Images) Former fast bowler Chetan Sharma is confident that Team India will definitely defeat Australia in the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. Let us tell you that the five-match Test series between Team India and Australia is starting from November 22. The first test between these two teams will be played in Perth. The Australia team has not played any Test match since March this year, while Team India recently suffered a 0-3 defeat in the three-match Test series against New Zealand. If Team India wants to secure its place in the final of the World Test Championship 2024-25, then they will have to win the upcoming Test series against Australia by a long margin. Chetan Sharma while talking to Times of India said, ‘I can say 100 percent that Team India will beat Australia in Australia. Under Rohit’s captaincy we will complete the hat-trick of wins in Australia. India will beat Australia once again in their own home. We have beaten Australia twice in a row at their home. The pressure will be on Australia. This pressure will be on Australian captain Pat Cummins and not on Rohit Sharma. Whenever Team India has toured Australia, we have enjoyed a lot. We have praised the game of Team India not only in Australia but also in the tour of South Africa and England. Whenever the players of the opposing team have said that this is going to be a very good series, then we can understand that there will be pressure inside them also. Chetan Sharma presented his side regarding Rohit and Virat Regarding Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, who are struggling with poor form, Chetan Sharma said, ‘We should respect Rohit and Virat. These two are never out of form. We should never use wrong words for both of these. We should be happy that both these players are still performing well and are playing an important role in Team India’s victory every time. I am confident that Virat and Rohit will be seen batting brilliantly in Australia. Let us tell you that, if Team India wants to secure its place in the final of the World Test Championship, then they will have to win the five-match Test series against Australia by 4-0. If Team India fails to do this then it will be very difficult for them to reach the final of this important event.

It did not seem that Australia wanted to win the series: Former player gave his opinion regarding the playing XI of the host in the third ODI against Pakistan.
Pakistan has won the three-match ODI series by 2-1. Michael Clarke (Photo Source: Twitter) Former player Michael Clarke has raised questions on Australia’s playing XI in the third and final ODI match played against Pakistan. Michael Clarke is quite surprised to see why Australia rested its star players in the third ODI against Pakistan. Let us tell you that in the third ODI match played between these two teams, Australia rested Steve Smith, Marnus Labuschagne, Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood and Mitchell Starc. His decision proved wrong and Pakistan defeated Australia in this match. Not only this, Pakistan has defeated Australia at home for the first time in 22 years. Speaking on Big Sports Breakfast, Michael Clarke said, ‘I am a bit surprised. Only 11 days are left for the first Test match against Team India to be played in Perth and the Australian team made a lot of changes in the playing XI of the third ODI against Pakistan. If Australia had won the first two matches, it would have been important to understand that the big players should be rested in the third match. But it was very important for Australia to win this series and I think they had nothing to do with it. Michael Clarke raised questions on team management Michael Clarke further said, ‘If you take it lightly then it is a very bad thing. Very few fans are coming to the stadium to watch ODI cricket and it is very important to tell them that this format is still great and they should come to the stadium in maximum numbers to watch the matches. Pakistan has won the three-match ODI series by 2-1. Now the three-match T20 series between these two teams is going to start from November 14 in Brisbane. Even though the hosts may not be able to win the ODI series, the team would definitely like to win the T20 series. Talking about the third ODI match, Australia, batting first, scored 140 runs after losing all the wickets. Pakistan achieved the target against Australia by losing two wickets.

‘Play him in the top order’ Adam Gilchrist on Josh English before the start of BGT
The player has been included in the Australian team for the first Test match to be held in Perth. Josh Inglis (Image Source: Getty Images) Border-Gavaskar Trophy is to be played between India and Australia (IND vs AUS) from 22nd November. The first match of this series will be played in Perth, for which a 13-member team has been announced by Cricket Australia. 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.
