Sandeep Patil (Photo Source: Getty Images) ‘Beyond Boundaries’, the autobiography of 1983 World Champion team member and former Indian selector Sandeep Patil, was released in Mumbai on November 6, 2024. In this book, Sandeep Patil shares his views about some of India’s coaches since John Wright. The former player believes that John Wright was successful as the Indian coach because he gave free rein to the players. But then Greg and Anil Kumble were unable to do so. John Wright was the ideal coach for India- Sandeep Patil Describing John Wright, Sandeep Patil wrote that, he was an ideal coach for India and after his tenure, India’s record abroad kept getting better. He also said that Wright kept his distance from the press and was not in the news much. Sandeep Patil wrote in his book, Since the year 2000, India has had many international coaches and support staff. This has been of great benefit, as India’s foreign record has continuously improved. It started with John Wright becoming India’s first foreign coach. I think John was the ideal coach for India. He was soft spoken, polite, always kept to himself and was happy living in the shadow of Sourav Ganguly. Apart from all this, he maintained distance from the press. He managed it so well that he was rarely in the news, unlike Greg Chappell’s tenure. Greg Chappell was in the news every day- Patil Patil believes that Greg Chappell did not try to understand the thought process of the BCCI board members, president and secretary. Chappell could not establish good relations with other members of the Indian team. Patil also told that Chappell was in the news every day. With Chappelle, he was in the news every day. It is very important for a coach to first understand the policy of that board, the thinking of the board members and the chairman. He should have a good rapport with the president and secretary, and of course with the captain and the team. John did this brilliantly. During John’s tenure, there was no senior and junior issue. It was a team. He believed that all the seniors were leaders in some way or the other, he respected them and gave them free rein, which I think Anil Kumble did not do and also Greg Chappell. Sandeep Patil also told in his book that, instead of learning about the system in India, Greg Chappell wanted to change things from the beginning. However, John Wright was the complete opposite, as he took time to understand Indian cricket. Let us tell you, John Wright coached India in 182 matches, out of which the team won 89 matches. Meanwhile, India won 40 out of 81 matches under Chappell’s leadership. Anil Kumble’s tenure was much shorter than the other two, during his tenure India won 22 out of 35 matches.

Let us tell you that Prithvi Shaw had made a spectacular international debut for Team India. He scored an important century in his Test debut in 2018 against West Indies. However, the experienced player has been dropped from the Mumbai team of Ranji Trophy. According to the team management, Prithvi Shaw’s fitness is not good at the moment and that is why he has been dropped from the Mumbai squad. Greg Chappell wrote in his letter, ‘Hello Earth, I can understand whatever problem you are facing at this time. You will be very sad to be out of Mumbai team. This is really a bad thing but these moments are the turning points of an athlete. This will improve your career and you will also see a lot of change within you. I have full hope that you will be seen performing brilliantly once again. Setbacks are a part of every great athlete’s story. Legendary players like Sir Don Bradman were also dropped from the team and he made a very good comeback. He has not run away from the challenge and has faced it brilliantly. I have also had a drop in my career but it has been a memorable experience. What’s happened before doesn’t tell you anything about Earth: Greg Chappell Greg Chappell further wrote in his letter, ‘I remember seeing you in the India U-19 team in which you performed tremendously and it was really great to see you playing. Those who know about your abilities are watching your journey carefully and we all know that your best performance is yet to come. Whatever has happened before does not represent you, Earth. You are still going through your best time and we are confident that you will return to the team even better. A player has to go through all these things in his cricketing career.

Virat Kohli & Rohit Sharma (Photo Source: Getty Images) Before the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25, former Australian captain Ian Chappell has given a big statement about the Indian team’s experienced batsmen Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. Let us tell you that both these players have been struggling with very poor form for some time. However, it is very important for these two players to give important performances for Team India in the upcoming 5-match Test series against Australia. This five-match Test series is starting from 22 November in Perth. If Team India wants to secure its place in the final of the World Test Championship, then it is very important for them to win about four matches of this Test series. According to Ian Chappell, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma may face a lot of trouble in Australian conditions. Ian Chappell said, ‘The only thing I would like to say is that Team India is coming after losing the Test series against Australia and New Zealand. The pitch in Australia is very good and extra bounce will also be seen there. It is very important for the batsmen of Team India to understand this thing. Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma may have to face problems due to extra bounce. Team India will need maximum runs from its best player: Mark Taylor Ian Chappell further said about Team India, ‘The performance of the team’s batsmen has been disappointing. I think Yashasvi Jaiswal is a very good young player and apart from him, Shubman Gill can also perform well. But you have Kohli and Rohit Sharma who have a lot of experience and at this time when people are talking so much about them, I think they can be seen performing well in the upcoming series. Regarding this, former player Mark Taylor said, ‘Team India has moved ahead with Pujara and Rahane. They have all Rohit and Kohli who are the best players in the world but the team is going through a very difficult situation at the moment and this has put pressure on the young players and also on the lower order players. You have to try to score as many runs as possible from your best player but this has not been seen at all from Team India in the last 12 to 18 months.

“Don’t make Travis Head open in BGT…”- Ian Chappell warns Australia team
Travis Head (Image Credit- Twitter X) Former Australian cricketer Ian Chappell has warned the Australian team against using Travis Head as an opening batsman in the upcoming five-match Test series against India. The Kangaroos are set to face India in a five-match Test series later this year. The 2024-25 edition of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy is scheduled to begin on November 22 in Perth. The Australian team is looking for an opening partner for Usman Khawaja after David Warner announced his retirement from Test cricket earlier this year. In the last two Test series against West Indies and New Zealand, Steve Smith opened for the Pat Cummins-led side but did not perform as expected. There is a high possibility that he will be seen batting at number four in this series against India. Now in such a situation, it will be interesting to see who will open for the Australian team in the Test series against India in his absence. Ian Chappell has given his opinion on this issue. Ian Chappell expressed his opinion regarding Travis Head In his column for ESPN Cricinfo by ian chappell That said, “Travis Head’s opening in Test cricket is based on his unmatched success facing the new ball in both 50-over and T20 cricket. There is no doubt that Head, with his highly attacking style, is the ideal player to open in the two shorter formats of the game. However, Test cricket will be a completely different thing.” Ian Chappell further said, “To trouble Jasprit Bumrah, everyone is demanding that Head should open. However, Bumrah and to some extent Mohammed Siraj are unlikely to change their aggressive mindset.” Chappell wants some runs on the board before Travis Head comes to the crease. He said, “Clever R Ashwin will not be fazed by the ultra-aggressive attitude of the opponent. It could be argued that opening with Head means he is more stable facing Ashwin when there are some runs on the board. On the other hand, an astute opposition captain can use off-spinners with the new ball. There is also a compelling argument for using Head as an opening batsman in a Test match.”

Ian Chappell wants to change another rule to improve Test cricket
According to Ian Chappell, cricket administrators should take important steps to save Test cricket. Former Australian cricketer Ian Chappell has given his stand regarding the boundary rule. According to Ian Chappell, the umpire should give boundaries to the batting team only when the ball has gone out of bounds. Not only this, when the fielder has caught the ball before the boundary, then changes should be made in that rule. According to Ian Chappell, cricket administrators should take important steps to save Test cricket. He also said that after the end of the over, the batsmen should not be given much time to talk and considering the weather, the drinks break time should be kept short. This will save a lot of time. He also said that when the team or player takes the review, they should use it as soon as possible and also reduce the time of review. In his column for ESPNcricinfo, the former Australian player wrote, ‘Why aren’t boundaries signaled only for balls that hit the rope rather than those that hit a fielder’s legs or hands? The pace of the game is already very low in Test cricket. There is no improvement in it and it is getting slower day by day. It is very important for us to intensify this format further. Boundary rules should be changed: Ian Chappell Ian Chappell has appealed that only when the ball goes outside the boundary line, it should be given 6 runs or 4 runs. According to him, in Test cricket, saving or extra one or two runs will bring about any change in the game. According to him, all this is important in limited overs cricket. However, if the rules are changed then the pace of the game will also increase. Not only this, if in Test cricket we continuously look at catches and other things, it will waste a lot of time. There are many former players who have expressed their views that changes should be made in Test cricket as soon as possible to improve it and for this, all the players and administrators will have to take important steps together. 5 players who have taken the most catches in T20i cricket 4 players who have bowled the most dot balls in cricket (all-format and active players) 5 Indian batsmen who have scored the most runs in their career in first class cricket Top 5 batsmen who scored double century in first class cricket IND vs AFG: Captain Rohit Sharma will give chance to these 11 players, see playing XI Not only Hardik Pandya, Mumbai Indians have also traded these players 5 batsmen who have scored more than 3 thousand runs in T20 International matches Top 10 batsmen who hit most sixes in IPL history IPL 2024: Gujarat Titans’ playing XI will be like this under the captaincy of Shubman Gill. 5 players who have scored the most centuries while opening in all formats of cricket

Australia Cricket Team and Ian Chappell (Image Credit- Twitter) Former Australian player Ian Chappell is very worried that the future of Test cricket is now in danger due to T20 cricket. He has appealed to all the boards and cricketers that they should take important steps together and save Test cricket. Let us tell you that for quite some time now many former players have been presenting their views regarding Test cricket. Many people believe that because of T20 cricket, there is a decline in Test cricket. There are many players who want to play in franchise league cricket but find themselves unavailable in Test cricket for the national team. Writing his column in ESPNcricinfo, Ian Chappell wrote, ‘It is no secret that Test cricket is becoming an endangered species. The administrator is impressed by the popularity of T20 and its huge financial rewards. T20 league is rising rapidly and Test cricket is in decline. The pace of the game of Test cricket is low. It is getting slower every day and nothing is being done to make matters better. On one hand, Ben Stokes is making better efforts to promote Test cricket, while nothing like this is being seen from the administrators.

Test cricket is the game played for the longest time and people do not want to watch it anymore. Many people are bored with this format. If cricket has to be improved, players and fans will have to partner and implement new rules. If this is not done then Test cricket will completely end and this is not a good thing. 5 players who have taken the most catches in T20i cricket 4 players who have bowled the most dot balls in cricket (all-format and active players) 5 Indian batsmen who have scored the most runs in their career in first class cricket Top 5 batsmen who scored double century in first class cricket IND vs AFG: Captain Rohit Sharma will give chance to these 11 players, see playing XI Not only Hardik Pandya, Mumbai Indians have also traded these players 5 batsmen who have scored more than 3 thousand runs in T20 International matches Top 10 batsmen who hit most sixes in IPL history IPL 2024: Gujarat Titans’ playing XI will be like this under the captaincy of Shubman Gill. 5 players who have scored the most centuries while opening in all formats of cricket
