Aakash Chopra slammed the management for the continuous changes in the batting lineup of the Indian team during the Sri Lanka tour
India performed poorly in the ODI series and were defeated by Sri Lanka 2–0. Aakash Chopra (Photo Source: Twitter) India’s tour of Sri Lanka ended on 7 August. In this tour, India clean swept Sri Lanka 3-0 in the T20 series. However, India’s performance in the ODI series was quite poor and Sri Lanka defeated them 2-0. Under the coaching of Gautam Gambhir, the Indian team could not perform well in the ODI format. In this ODI series, it was seen that a lot of changes have been made in the batting lineup of the Indian players. Former player Aakash Chopra put forward his point of view regarding this. In the T20 series, Suryakumar Yadav, Rinku Singh and Riyan Parag also bowled very well and took important wickets for their team. However, in this tour, the players of the Indian team failed to bat well. Aakash Chopra said on his official YouTube channel, ‘Number four has now become a revolving door as we have given batting order to different players in every match. What is the idea of making a player like KL Rahul bat at number 6 or number seven? Why don’t you fight from the beginning? In India, KL Rahul was included in the playing XI for only two matches and then he was dropped. It was really surprising to see this because KL Rahul was in his plans since 2023. This is also because no one else had scored more runs than him in the middle order since 2023. Number four has now become a matter of concern for the Indian team Let us tell you, in the first ODI match played between India and Sri Lanka, Washington Sundar batted at number four but he scored only five runs. After this, Shivam Dubey was given this important responsibility in the second ODI but he could not even open his account and India lost the match. In the third and final ODI match, Rishabh Pant was included in the team and was given batting at number four but he returned to the pavilion after scoring good runs. The Indian team will have to give a chance to such a player in this order as soon as possible, who can bat well at number four and win the hearts of all the fans. 5 Australian players who scored half-century in their debut IPL match IPL 2024: These 11 foreign players took crores of rupees but flopped IPL 2024: 5 players who hit the most sixes in the 19th and 20th overs of IPL 5 fastest bowlers in IPL history Who are the head coaches of all 10 teams in IPL 2024?

I think the one position India needs to improve is the No. 3 batting position: Mithali Raj
Let’s know what Mithali said Mithali Raj (Image Source: Twitter) The Indian women’s cricket team has lost to Sri Lanka by 8 runs in the final of the Women’s Asia Cup 2024. On the other hand, after this defeat, a big statement has come from the former captain of the team, Mithali Raj. It is worth noting that after the Women’s Asia Cup, now the Indian team has to participate in the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup to be held in October. So before the start of this multi-nation tournament, a big statement of Mithali Raj has come out. Mithali says that the area where the Indian team has to work before this big tournament is the number 3 batting position. Mithali Raj’s big statement came out Let us tell you that in a recent discussion with Star Sports, the former veteran batsman said – India is going to participate in the biggest ICC Women’s T20 World Cup in October. I think the area India should really focus on improving is the number 3 batsman position. They are still looking for the right batsman to go at number 3. They have tried D Hemalatha at this order and they have tried Uma Chhetri. Mithali further said- But ideally, this number should have such a batsman who can take forward the great start given by Shefali Verma and Smriti Mandhana. Also, the team needs to focus on other aspects of bowling, as this team is playing with only 5 bowlers. They probably need a sixth bowler, someone like an all-rounder who can bowl a few overs as well as bat. I think these are the areas India should improve on before taking part in the T20 World Cup.
