IND vs NZ (Photo Source: Getty Images) Former India cricketer Dinesh Karthik has backed Indian spinners Ravichandran Ashwin, Kuldeep Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja to make a comeback in the second Test against New Zealand in Pune after a disappointing performance in the first Test in Bengaluru. In the first test, India could not defend the target of 107 runs and in the end they had to face defeat by 8 wickets. In the Bengaluru Test, R Ashwin, Kuldeep Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja together took seven wickets, but during this period the economy rate of all three was the biggest cause of concern. In the first innings, Ashwin and Jadeja gave runs at an economy rate between 5-6, while in the second innings, Kuldeep Yadav gave runs at an economy run rate of 8.7. Dinesh Karthik gave a big statement regarding the spinners of Team India. Seeing the brutality with which Kiwi batsmen thrashed Team India’s spin attack in Bengaluru, the tension of Team India’s fans seems to be increasing. Whereas former Indian wicketkeeper batsman Dinesh Karthik has given some surprising statements regarding Indian spinners. After Team India’s defeat against New Zealand in Bengaluru, former cricketer Dinesh Karthik said on Cricbuzz, ‘I will not think too much about the Indian spinners, it was not a good Test match for them as a unit. Be it Kuldeep Yadav, R Ashwin or Ravindra Jadeja. It was good because you want such players to get pinched, because whenever they come back, they come back very strongly. I think the conditions in Pune will be better for these three and you will see Ashwin and Jadeja performing well in Pune. Let us tell you that the second match of the Test series between India and New Zealand will be played in Pune from 24th October.

IND vs NZ: Five reasons which became the reason for Team India’s defeat, one decision of Rohit Sharma ruined the game
New Zealand defeated India by 8 wickets in the first test match. IND vs NZ (Photo Source: Getty Images) Team India, captained by Rohit Sharma, had to face a shameful defeat by 8 wickets in the Test played against New Zealand in Bengaluru. With this victory, New Zealand took a 1-0 lead in the three-match Test series. In this match, India set a target of only 107 runs for the Kiwi team, which they easily achieved on the fifth day at the loss of 2 wickets. Now the question in everyone’s mind is that where did Team India go wrong in this match and why did it lose this match, let us tell you. IND vs NZ 5 Reasons Why India Lost First Test Match (Five reasons why Team India lost the first test against New Zealand) 1. Rohit Sharma’s wrong decision on the toss. When the toss of this match took place on the second day of the Test match, there were overcast conditions. Not a single ball was bowled on the first day due to rain. At the same time, when the game started on the second day, Rohit took a wrong decision after winning the toss. India chose to bat and the entire team was bundled out for only 46 runs. Five players including Virat Kohli could not even open their accounts. Rohit himself later admitted that there was a mistake in taking the decision after the toss. Rohit said after the first day’s play, “As a captain, I am sad to see the score of 46 runs because the decision to bat first was mine. But one or two bad decisions are made every year.” 2. Conway’s innings proved costly for India After India were bowled out cheaply in the first innings, New Zealand opener Devon Conway gave trouble to the Indian bowlers. Conway played an inning of 91 runs in 105 balls with the help of 11 fours and 3 sixes. He made a partnership of 67 runs for the first wicket with captain Tom Latham (15). Conway then took over the innings with Will Young (33). Both of them added 75 runs for the second wicket and put pressure on the host team. 3. Racine-Saudi partnership Apart from Conway, Rachin Ravindra (134 in 157 balls), who came to bat at number four, troubled the Indian bowlers. Rachin made a 39-run partnership with Daryl Mitchell (18) for the fourth wicket. However, when Tim Southee (65) came to support Rachin, both of them made a partnership of 137 runs for the eighth wicket. Thanks to the partnership of both, New Zealand scored 402 in the first innings. If India had managed to break this partnership early, then perhaps New Zealand’s innings could have been reduced to below 300 and perhaps the result of the match could have been different. 4. Rahul and Jadeja failed in the second innings also In the second innings of the test match, India scored 462 runs on the board due to the excellent batting of Sarfaraz Khan (150), Rishabh Pant…
“I am completely eager to make a comeback” – Shreyas Iyer said about his comeback in Test cricket
Shreyas Iyer (Pic Source-X) Mumbai batsman Shreyas Iyer is eager to return to the Indian Test team with confidence after recovering from back surgery. 29-year-old Shreyas Iyer, who made his Test debut almost three years ago, scored a century in red-ball cricket during the Ranji Trophy second round match against Maharashtra on Saturday. His last first-class century was scored against New Zealand in the Kanpur Test in November 2021. After scoring a century in Ranji Trophy, Shreyas Iyer said while talking to journalists, “It feels very special to score a century after a very long time. Obviously, I was feeling a little bit down with my injuries, but now, to score a century after a very long time, overall it is a great feeling.” Shreyas Iyer wants to return to Test cricket Shreyas Iyer, who was dropped from the BCCI’s central contract list earlier this year, last played a home Test series against England in February. Whereas he participated in the ODI series against Sri Lanka in August. Now he wants to return to the Indian Test team as soon as possible. Regarding his return to Test cricket, Iyer said, “I am completely eager to return. But as we say, control the things that can be controlled. My job is to continue to perform well and play as much cricket as possible. It also takes care that the fitness of the body is maintained. He said, “I am desperate to play in the Test. That’s why I’m playing, I mean if that wasn’t the case then I could have found some reason to sit down.” The Indian team is currently playing a three-match Test series against New Zealand. Now after this, India will play a five-match Test series against Australia in November, it will be interesting to see whether Shreyas Iyer gets a chance there or not.
