He has become the second player to play the most number of international matches for India. Virat Kohli has broken Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s record in this matter. However, after 8 years, when he came to bat at number three in Test cricket, he failed miserably. His account was not even opened at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. He has been playing IPL on this ground for more than 15 years. In such a situation, his getting out for zero in the first innings of this historic match is not a good thing for a big player like him. Let us tell you that Virat Kohli came to play the 536th international match for India today. MS Dhoni has played 535 matches for Team India. In this way, Virat Kohli went ahead of his former captain MS Dhoni, but Virat is still 128 matches behind Sachin Tendulkar, who is called the God of Cricket. Sachin Tendulkar has played 664 matches for India in international cricket. At number four is Rahul Dravid, who has played 504 matches for India in his career and Rohit Sharma is at fifth position in the list, who has played 486 matches for India in international cricket so far. Players who have played most international matches for India 664 matches – Sachin Tendulkar 536 matches – Virat Kohli 535 matches – MS Dhoni 504 matches – Rahul Dravid 486 matches – Rohit Sharma

‘Cheteshwar Pujara’s contribution was huge’ Parthiv Patel gave a big statement regarding number 3 batting order in BGT

So now a new name has been added to this list of former Indian wicketkeeper batsman Parthiv Patel. Parthiv has given a big statement during BGT regarding the importance of India’s number 3 batting order. Parthiv Patel gave a big statement Let us tell you that while discussing with Colors Cineplex recently, Parthiv Patel said – Whenever India has performed well in Australia, the performance of the number 3 batsman has been very important, the way Rahul Dravid batted in 2003-04. And Cheteshwar Pujara’s contribution in the last two series was huge, due to which India won there. Therefore number 3 becomes a very important batting order. Parthiv further said- Shubman Gill has shown that he has the ability to score runs in Australia, although all of his runs came as an opener. Rishabh Pant’s 89 runs are always talked about in the Gabba Test we won, but Shubman Gill also scored 91 runs as an opener. So he (Gill) knows that he can bat under pressure.

“The captain and coach asked me to play red ball cricket…”- Sanju Samson’s big revelation

Sanju Samson & Gautam Gambhir (Photo Source: Sanju Samson revealed that Team India’s leadership group has asked him to play more Ranji Trophy matches as they are looking to try him in the Test format. Samson, who made his white-ball debut for India in 2015, has not played a single Test yet. Samson scored 3819 runs in 64 first class matches at an average of 38.96, which included 11 centuries. Samson recently attracted the attention of fans and selectors by scoring a century in the Duleep Trophy match. A few days ago, Sanju Samson scored a century in 40 balls in a T20 International match and saved his sinking T20 career. He has played T20 and ODI cricket for India. After performing well on a few occasions for the ODI and T20 team, Sanju Samson is now eyeing to play Test cricket. Before Duleep Trophy 2024, the leadership group of Team India has told him that he should play as many first class matches as possible. The leadership group includes captain Rohit Sharma and coach Gautam Gambhir. I have the skills to be successful in red ball cricket- Sanju Samson Speaking to Sportstar, Samson said, “I believe I have the skills to be successful in red ball cricket and I don’t want to limit myself to just white ball cricket. My desire is to play test cricket for India. Before the Duleep Trophy, the leadership group had told me that they were considering me for red-ball cricket and asked me to take it seriously and play as many Ranji Trophy matches as possible.” Samson further said about this, “This time my preparation was good. After the series against Sri Lanka, I trained with Rahul Dravid sir and Zubin Bharucha at the RR Academy and worked on my game. The century in the Duleep Trophy has given me a lot of confidence because it came against some of the best bowlers in the country.” Samson has scored centuries for India in ODI and T20 International cricket. At present, Rishabh Pant is with the team as a wicketkeeper batsman, but now Sanju Samson can also be considered in the future. He has consistently performed well in the IPL but has not been able to capitalize on his opportunities in international cricket.

He understands the game very well. He’s got a pretty good head on his shoulders. If we look closely, he has not captained much. Jasprit Bumrah has captained only one Test and a few T20 matches but when he is talked to about the game, he understands it all. They know what is needed most. When you are in a situation and you want your captain to come forward, I think Bumrah is one of them. Jasprit Bumrah is one of the experienced players: Rohit Sharma Rohit Sharma further said, ‘Jasprit Bumrah has been in our leadership group for a long time. Players also get a lot of encouragement from his presence and he himself has been one of the experienced players.

Rohit Sharma said in the press conference before the Bengaluru Test match, “To be honest, it is difficult to select him for the Australia series.

We do not want to take unfit Shami to Australia. We are hoping that Shami can be taken to Australia.” Hitman further said, “It is very difficult for a fast bowler because he has missed a lot of cricket and then suddenly to perform at his best, it is not ideal. We want to give him enough time to recover and be 100 percent fit. Physio, trainer, doctors have prepared a roadmap for him. He should play some (practice) matches before playing international cricket.” Mohammed Shami has played 64 Test matches for India, in which he has taken 229 wickets at an impressive average of 27.71. India will play five Test matches in Australia from November 22. Fans are eagerly waiting for Shami’s return.
