Before Border-Gavaskar Trophy, Sanjay Manjrekar gave a big statement about Virat Kohli.
The first match of the five-Test series between India and Australia will be played in Perth from November 22. Sanjay Manjrekar and Virat Kohli Ever since Indian batsman Virat Kohli reached Australia for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25, he has been in the news in Australian newspapers. Kohli even appeared in advertisements on the front pages of Australian newspapers. However, amidst all this, it is worth noting that Virat Kohli is struggling in red ball cricket. The line outside off-stump has troubled the 36-year-old in the last few seasons. In such a situation, they will have to improve before the Test series starting from 22nd November. Meanwhile, former cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar believes that Kohli knows very well what plan the Australian bowlers can make against him. I hope Virat will practice accordingly. Australians will try all those methods – Sanjay Manjrekar Sanjay Manjrekar said on Star Sports, Virat knows what is going to be planned? They will definitely start from the off stump line and see what the mood is? These days he is leaving the balls outside the off stump and will try to drive if the pitch is straight. He also said that, these days, he is trying to attack the body because he likes to play forward. So this is something that New Zealand has tried, which is very smart. And then if he is so focused outside off, there is a particular style of bowling the ball on middle stump, which Josh Hazlewood will try. So Australians will try all those methods and Virat Kohli knows about it. The first match of the five-Test series between India and Australia will be played in Perth from November 22. Indian captain Rohit Sharma will not be available for the first Test, so vice-captain Jasprit Bumrah will take charge of the team.

He has been in the headlines since Team India reached Australia. There is a lot of pressure on the Men in Blue, as they recently suffered a 0-3 defeat in the home Test series against New Zealand. Meanwhile, Australia’s legendary wicketkeeper-batsman Ian Healy has criticized the Indian team for not allowing fans and media in the net session before the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Healy believes that the touring team may be unhappy with such a policy. He said that in the past, Australia used to do something similar on Asia tours. However, he also admitted that Team India would want a ‘safe place’ to escape the everyday scrutiny. India is now doing what Australia…- Ian Healy Healy said, India is now doing to Australia what Australia used to do to India, Pakistan and sometimes Sri Lanka. Just not acknowledging the whole experience and the initial media. If you expose yourself to the media and meet the Australian public and the many Indians who come here, it makes for a very pleasant tour. He said that there are many reasons why India has locked itself down. We cannot imagine the crowd that they have to face day after day. So maybe training is their safe space and they have to do certain things and they want to keep it away from the public eye. Let us tell you that the first test match between the two teams will be played in Perth from 22nd November. Indian captain Rohit Sharma will not be available for the first Test. Therefore, Jasprit Bumrah will take charge of the Indian team in the Perth Test.
No preparation for BGT… Pat Cummins had gone to watch the concert, former Australian player raised questions
Pat Cummins is being criticized a lot at the moment, because instead of preparing for the upcoming BGT, he went to watch a Coldplay concert at Accor Stadium in Sydney with his wife. Pat Cummins & his Wife and Michael Clarke (Photo Source: The Australian team recently suffered a 2-1 defeat in the ODI series against Pakistan. Under the captaincy of Mohammad Rizwan, Pakistan created history, the team won the ODI series on Australian soil after 22 years. Pakistan had to face defeat by 2 wickets in the first match of the series. Then after Pakistan won by 9 wickets in the second ODI, the series was tied at 1-1. The third ODI was played in Perth on 10 November. Captain Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, Steve Smith and Marnus Labuschagne were released from the squad in preparation for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Pakistan again showed amazing form in the third ODI and won by 8 wickets. Meanwhile, Pat Cummins is being criticized a lot because instead of preparing for the upcoming BGT, he went to watch a Coldplay concert at Accor Stadium in Sydney with his wife and on the other hand Australia lost in the series decider match. Former Australian player Michael Clarke says that if he had been in Cummins’ place, the media would have taken him to task. Michael Clarke said this about Pat Cummins and the Australian team Michael Clarke emphasized that there were 11 days from the last ODI against Pakistan to the first Test against India. Therefore, the players who were rested could play. Michael Clarke speaking on ESPNcricinfo I think the media would have completely torn me apart. I think I have said in the last few days how I felt about Test players not playing the last one day. I would have loved to see them play that game. There were 11 days from the last ODI to the first Test, so I thought they all could have played. If Cricket Australia wanted to rest the fast bowlers, I understand, but I’m sure the batsmen who were kept out could probably play.
BGT 2024-25: “There is a strong need to play practice matches…”, Sanjay Manjrekar expressed concern over India’s current form.
Not having practice matches can make a difference, especially this time because of the form and confidence with which the team is going to Australia – Sanjay Manjrekar Team India & Sanjay Manjrekar (Photo Source: Getty Images) The Indian team is going to play the first match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test series against Australia from November 22 in Perth. The team is currently working hard for the first Test in Perth. Before the start of the series, it was announced that Team India would not play a single practice match. India had to suffer a humiliating 3-0 defeat against New Zealand in the last Test series. Let us tell you, after 24 years, a team clean-swept India at home. Team India’s form remains a matter of concern due to poor performance in the series against New Zealand. In view of this, former Indian cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar gave his opinion regarding India’s form and the need for practice matches. Practice matches are decreasing in recent times- Sanjay Manjrekar Before the Test series against Australia, the Indian team was scheduled to play an intra-squad match against India A, but it was cancelled. Sanjay Manjrekar feels that players like Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma would have liked to play some practice matches before the series, especially with the kind of form the team is in right now. The former cricketer also talked about India-A’s struggle against Australia-A despite being in form at home. Sanjay Manjrekar while speaking on ESPNcricinfo said, Not having practice matches could make a difference, especially this time with the kind of form and confidence the team is going into in Australia. The trend in recent times has been that practice matches are becoming less frequent, but on this particular tour we saw India A batsmen struggle despite being in form in Indian conditions. So yes, India was in dire need of playing more practice matches. Sanjay Manjrekar also emphasized on how the Indian team can take advantage of not playing practice matches. The team has often performed better when they have not played many practice matches before the series. India can respond to the fact that the team performed better when they were given fewer practice matches. In the 90s, we played many practice matches and still lost to Australia 0-4. I think the Indian batsmen are getting used to the conditions, but this time there are a lot of young players. “Maybe the previous team didn’t need the experience, but I think we needed some matches here, and I think Virat and Rohit would have liked to play practice matches.”

Team India recently had to face a 0-3 clean sweep in the home test series against New Zealand, after which this test series has become more important for the Indian team. In fact, if Team India has to reach the final of the ICC World Test Championship, then it will have to win this series by at least a margin of 4-0, after which it will reach the final without depending on any other team. In such a situation, Team India will have to win this series at any cost and for this it will be very important for Virat Kohli to perform well.
