They are going to be players in their own right and coaching staff and a former player turned coach. Obviously Rohit Sharma, Kohli, Jadeja have done brilliantly for so many years. “He has set the standards of Indian cricket so high that it has become easier for players to come in, but I think it has also become somewhat difficult to fill those big positions,” the former Australian fast bowler said. He further said, but now it is up to the next generation. They have a big responsibility. The thing with sports is that you cannot play forever. You should not play forever and you should not stop the players either. So when it is your time, enjoy it, celebrate it. What a great way to go out and now look forward to the next generation.

Jason Gillespie is the coach of Pakistan’s Test team. Jason Gillespie. (Source – Twitter/X) Pakistan Test team coach Jason Gillespie has talked about the biggest problem of the team ahead of the two-match Test series against Bangladesh in August. The former Australian bowler says that the biggest problem of the team is the lack of consistency, they are not able to perform well with consistency. Pakistan has struggled to win in all formats since the ODI World Cup in India last year. Since then in white ball cricket, the Babar-led team has suffered defeats against the United States of America (USA), Ireland, England, New Zealand, India and other teams. In Test cricket, late last year, they played a three-match Test series against Australia under the captaincy of Shan Masood. In which they lost 0-3. Jason Gillespie told the biggest weakness of Pakistan team Despite Pakistan’s poor performance on the Australia tour, Gillespie has focused on the positive aspects of their performance. “During the last tour of Australia, Pakistan lost the series 0-3, but they played well. There were times in the series when they were dominating the opposition team,” Gillespie was quoted as saying by Geo News. He further said, “Pakistan cricket team is very talented, but lack of consistency in performance is the main problem. We will see how we can bring consistency and stability in performance.” Gillespie further said, “My opinion is that Pakistan’s fielding is their weakness, so this will be my priority. For me, the goal is to see how we play against quality teams.” Pakistan’s Test series against Bangladesh will begin on August 21 at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium. The second Test will be played on August 30 at the National Stadium, Karachi. Pakistan will want to strengthen its position in the WTC points table by winning both these Test matches.

Aggressiveness has been seen in Babar Azam’s batting: Mushtaq Ahmed made a big statement about the Pakistani captain
According to Mushtaq Ahmed, Babar Azam’s batting has shown a lot of aggression in the recent times and he is changing it very fast. Babar Azam (Pic Source x) The performance of Pakistan team captain Babar Azam has not been so good for some time.

The team had to face defeat against USA and India in this important tournament. Babar Azam’s captaincy in this tournament was criticized by many people. However, former player Mushtaq Ahmed has praised Babar Azam and has also given his opinion about his batting. According to Mushtaq Ahmed, Babar Azam’s batting has seen a lot of aggression in the last few times and he is changing it very fast. Mushtaq Ahmed said, ‘In the last few years, Babar Azam’s batting has shown a lot of aggression. If so much change is seen in one person, then I think it is a lot. It is also the job of the other players to score runs. It is very important for them to play their role well. If one player is giving you the score, then it is very important for the other players to score runs as well.’ Apart from Babar Azam, other players are not doing their job well: Mushtaq Ahmed The former player further said, ‘This has been happening in the last three to four years. The rest of the players are not doing their job well and the entire pressure is coming on Babar Azam. If we talk about Babar Azam, then there is a main reason behind why people all over the world respect him. He brings respect to Pakistan. I think sometimes people speak too much about him.’ Let us tell you, Babar Azam failed to bat well in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. His captaincy was also very poor.
