However, many times this trick of the players backfires on them. They themselves get caught in the trap of the opposing player. A similar scene was seen on Wednesday (29 August) during the match between Mumbai and TNCA 11 in the Buchi Babu tournament. Where Mumbai’s star player Shreyas Iyer got caught in his own trap. Shreyas Iyer caught in the trap of Sai Kishore Challenging TNCA 11 captain I Sai Kishore proved costly for Shreyas Iyer. According to Sportstar, before the match between Mumbai and TNCA 11 in the Buchi Babu tournament, Shreyas Iyer and R. Sai Kishore were practicing batting in the nets side by side. Shreyas had told Sai, “Even if you keep a long-off fielder from the first over, I will still play a shot over him.” Hearing this, the spinner immediately replied, “You must do it.” After this, during Mumbai’s innings in the match, Shreyas Iyer came to bat after Mushir Khan was out. Sai Kishore was bowling. Then the captain of TNCA 11 showed smartness. He did not keep the traditional long-off. He stationed a fielder on the boundary behind him. This benefited him. Shreyas came under pressure due to the fielder being right behind the bowler. He played a pull shot. The ball went straight towards short midwicket. He was out after scoring 2 runs off 3 balls. TNCA 11 scored 379 runs in the first innings. In response, Mumbai team was out for 156 runs. Opener Divyansh Saxena scored the highest runs for Mumbai in the first innings with 70 runs. Seven batsmen could not reach the double digit mark. Suryakumar Yadav scored 30 runs in 38 balls with the help of 3 fours and 1 six.

Chris Woakes (Image Credit- Twitter X) England fast bowler Chris Woakes has backed Ben Stokes’ decision to ask Shamar Joseph to bowl more wickets instead of Joshua de Silva on the third day of the second Test against the West Indies. However, in the match being played at Trent Bridge Nottingham, West Indies’ innings could have been limited to 386/9, but the Caribbean team’s number 11 batsman Shamar Joseph played an aggressive brand of cricket, due to which West Indies took the lead over England for the first time in the match. At the same time, Stokes’ decision was also strongly criticized by former cricketer Michael Vaughan. On the third day of the second Test match between England and West Indies, Joshua led the team in batting, but the English fast bowlers’ target in the match was to take the wicket of tailender Shamar Joseph. But this strategy of the team did not work at all, and Joseph played a stormy innings of 33 runs in 27 balls. During this innings, Joseph hit 5 fours and 2 excellent sixes. On the other hand, after this innings of Shamar Joseph, a big statement has come from fast bowler Chris Woakes.

Chris Woakes made a big statement Let us tell you that after the end of the third day of the second Test match between England and West Indies, Chris Woakes, as quoted by Cricbuzz, said – This was a time that could create problems. You have to go with the plan that you have made.

Woakes further said- You don’t always expect that the number 11 batsman will play some balls in the stands. It was a good game for them, that they played good cricket. We bowled according to our plan for a long time and in the end we got the result.

The fight to become Team India’s opener for the Sri Lanka series has begun among these 4 batsmen, what will BCCI do?
The names of Shubman Gill, Abhishek Sharma, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rituraj Gaikwad are coming up as openers for the Sri Lanka series. Indian team (Pic Source-X) A five-match T20 series was organized between India and Zimbabwe. The last match of this series was played on Sunday (14 July). In this match held at Harare Sports Club, the Indian cricket team won by 42 runs and with this, Team India under the captaincy of Shubman Gill has won the series against Zimbabwe by 4-1. After the series win, Shubman Gill naturally looked very excited. Actually, This series proved to be a comeback for Shubman Gill after not getting a place in the T20 World Cup team due to poor form. He captained brilliantly and his batting form also returned. After the retirement of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, Shubman Gill’s innings as captain and opener was commendable. Big question about opening in Team India However, in this series we saw many contenders for the opening spot. Whoever got the chance took advantage of it with both hands and now has created a problem for the BCCI. First Abhishek Sharma, then Yashasvi Jaiswal both batted brilliantly as openers. After that there was Rituraj Gaikwad who may not have opened but his old records definitely tell what level of opener he is. Now the question will arise as to who should be given the opening and who should not. Because the names of Shubman Gill, Abhishek Sharma, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rituraj Gaikwad have come up for the upcoming series. All this headache will now fall on the coach and the captain to be appointed for the Sri Lanka series. Shubman Gill has issued a statement regarding this increasing competition in the team. He said- “The best thing is that everyone is performing. It shows that no one is taking things lightly and everyone is serious about their form and performance. This is the best thing for any country and board.” “Whoever got the opportunity grabbed it with both hands. From openers to bowlers, all-rounders and spinners, everyone made their mark and I think the selectors have seen everything now and it is up to them to select the team for the next series (3 T20s and 3 ODIs in Sri Lanka).”
