Big news for Team India, Shardul Thakur is fit before the important tour of Australia
Shardul Thakur will be seen playing in the upcoming Irani Cup Trophy. Shardul Thakur (Image Credit- Twitter X) There is some good news for Team India just ahead of the upcoming busy Test season and for Mumbai ahead of the upcoming Irani Cup match in Lucknow. It is being told that fast bowler all-rounder Shardul Thakur is back on the field. Thakur is currently playing his first competitive match after four months of ankle injury. Let us tell you that he underwent surgery in London on June 12. India’s Test season is about to start and the team has to play a two-match Test series against Bangladesh from September 19. After this series, Team India has to host New Zealand for a three-match Test series and then play the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia. In such a situation, Shardul being fit before the Australia series is a good news for Team India. Earlier, Shardul Thakur last participated in IPL 2024 as the main tournament and after that he got injured. Later, he also had to undergo surgery, due to which he could not play the Duleep Trophy. However, now Shardul has completed his post-surgery recovery and is ready to show his flair on the field once again. Shardul’s performance in the match against KSCA Secretary 11 was disappointing He recently played for Mumbai against KSCA Secretary 11 at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. However, his performance there was not very special. Shardul faced two balls in batting in this match and then got out without scoring any runs, while on Sunday he gave 29 runs in eight overs and did not get any wicket during this time. The Irani Cup 2024, which has shifted from Mumbai to Lucknow, will be held at the Ekana Stadium from October 1 to 5. It will feature Mumbai, who won the recent season of the Ranji Trophy, and Rest of India. Shardul Thakur is also expected to be seen in this match, who can be a part of the Mumbai team.

(Photo Source: Getty Images) The England team management does not want to take any risk with fast bowler Jofra Archer under any circumstances, especially considering his injury history. In such a situation, England will continue its policy of adopting a cautious approach along with managing Jofra Archer’s workload in their upcoming five-match ODI series against Australia. 29-year-old Archer performed brilliantly in the first T20 match of the 3-match series against Australia, taking 2 wickets for 31 runs, but he was not included in the playing eleven of the second match. The third match was canceled due to rain, due to which Archer got a break again. Therefore, this trend may continue in the upcoming five-match ODI series starting at Trent Bridge from September 19. That is, Archer will not be played in all the matches in the entire five-match ODI series. Jos Buttler gave this statement about Jofra Archer England’s limited overs captain Jos Buttler has confirmed that Archer’s workload will be managed throughout the series. He indicated that Archer may not play in most of the matches as the number of overs and intensity of the game in ODI cricket is higher than in T20 matches. Buttler also said that the team’s goal is to get Archer back to Test cricket as soon as possible. Butler told Sky Sports, “Archer will have to be managed carefully throughout the series. He is doing well in T20 cricket, but there you only bowl four overs. There is a lot of difference in the overs and intensity in ODIs, and we want him back in Test cricket soon.” England’s interim head coach Marcus Trescothick said that Archer is aware of the team’s plans and is comfortable with it. He also said that the team management is looking at a big goal and all the coaches, physios and directors are working together on Archer’s fitness. Trescothick said, “Archer is already aware of the plan. It is decided before every match whether he will play or not. We know what we have to do and he is comfortable with it. This is part of a big plan, which involves coaches, directors, physios and everyone else. His workload will also be managed in the ODI series.”

Do you know what is the best thing about Gauti bhai? He will motivate you, give you a free hand- Piyush Chawla Virat Kohli & Gautam Gambhir (Photo Source: Getty Images) Virat Kohli and Gautam Gambhir are two of the greatest players of Indian cricket. In December 2009, Virat Kohli scored a century in the ODI match against Sri Lanka, in the same match Gautam Gambhir played an innings of 150 runs and was selected as the Player of the Match. But in the post-match presentation, Gambhir handed over his award to young Virat. Both the players were also part of the 2011 World Cup winning team. However, Gautam Gambhir and Virat Kohli have made more headlines due to their clashes on the field. After becoming the head coach of Team India, Gambhir, while talking about his relationship with Kohli, said that both are passionate people on the field and it is completely normal to fight for their respective teams. Meanwhile, former Indian player Piyush Chawla, who has been a teammate of both the players, has recently shared an interesting anecdote. Gauti brothers are all classy- Piyush Chawla Piyush Chawla revealed that there was never any rift between Gautam Gambhir and Virat Kohli. The former spinner recalled the conversation that took place during the ODI World Cup 2023. When he and Gambhir were part of a show and a question was asked about Kohli, which he could not answer, but Gambhir did. Piyush Chawla, while talking on Shubhankar Mishra’s podcast, said, Gauti bhai and I were doing a show. A question was asked, ‘When Virat completed his 50th century, off which bowler did he take a single? I couldn’t answer this, but Gambhir replied, he was like, ‘Now don’t say that there is a fight.’ Gauti bhai is all class, he is one of the best. Gauti bhai is one of the nicest human beings- Piyush Chawla Piyush Chawla further said that if Gautam Gambhir sees talent in someone then he motivates them and gives full support. Do you know what is the best thing about Gauti bhai? He will motivate you, give you a free hand and support you the way he wants. If he sees that talent in you, even if you don’t do anything in all 14 matches, if you can do that, he will support you which is a great thing for any player. Chawla also talked about Gautam Gambhir’s contrasting nature on and off the field and called him one of the nicest human beings. I have played under him for 4-5 years. We played together for India and India-A. The way he looks aggressive on the field, he is equally humble off the field. The fun I have interacting with him is amazing. Gauti bhai is one of the nicest human beings I have met.

PCB postponed the National Junior Championship just a day after it started, know the big reason here
18 regional teams participate in this domestic tournament of Pakistan. PCB (Image Credit- Twitter) Just a day after the start of the National Junior Championship, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has decided to postpone it. The participants and officials of the tournament have been informed about its postponement by PCB. On the other hand, PCB said in a short press release regarding the sudden postponement of the tournament that due to unavoidable circumstances, the tournament is being postponed with immediate effect. It is worth noting that a lot of money was spent by PCB to gather the participants of the tournament. Furthermore, a Pakistan Cricket Board confidant revealed that PCB chief Mohsin Naqvi had received several complaints that participants in the tournament had taken part with fake documentation, which could have led to problems in the selection of teams as well as the underlying issue of age fraud. This PCB confidant was quoted by News18 as saying- Junior tournaments are considered by the board as the backbone of preparing the right talent for first-class cricket and international performances. This is why despite the long selection process, Mohsin Naqvi got upset when he received several complaints, some of which were valid. PCB may suffer financial loss It is worth mentioning that 18 regional teams of the country participate in this National Junior Championship of Pakistan. And the PCB brings the players who perform well in this to First Class Cricket, from where the door to the National Team opens. However, now these 18 teams were taken to training centres where training took place and the players were provided with food, accommodation and transport facilities apart from kits and daily allowances, the total amount of which was reportedly in the millions of rupees. But this now only seems to be causing a financial loss to the PCB.
