DTVHINDI“Becoming the head coach of India is not challenging…”, why did Virender Sehwag give such a statement…?
India has recently won the T20 World Cup and the players know their roles – Virender Sehwag Virender Sehwag (Photo Source: X/Twitter) After the T20 World Cup 2024, Gautam Gambhir replaced Rahul Dravid as the head coach of India in all three formats. Gambhir’s tenure as head coach has been mixed so far. Team India won the T20 series 3-0 in the Sri Lanka tour. At the same time, they had to face a 0-2 defeat in the ODI series. Meanwhile, recently former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag gave his opinion on the role of the head coach. Sehwag believes that this responsibility is not as difficult as it may seem from the outside. He also explained the reason why the players will have more burden than Gautam Gambhir. Gambhir is there to help them all- Virender Sehwag Talking about the interview given to Amar Ujala, Virender Sehwag said, I don’t think it is a challenging role because it involves other professionals as well. The team has recently won the T20 World Cup and the players know their roles. Gambhir’s arrival will give clarity to the players. It will be an added advantage. The challenges will be less for Gambhir and more for the players, because now they will feel that after the T20 World Cup they have to win the Champions Trophy or the WTC Final or the World Cup. But of course, Gambhir is there to help all of them. Sehwag never wants to become the head coach of Team India Virender Sehwag further revealed why he would never accept the role of Indian coach. However, he has expressed his desire to become an IPL coach. Let us tell you, Sehwag was the mentor of the franchise from 2016 to 2018 after representing Punjab Kings in 2014 and 2015. Not with the Indian cricket team, but if the IPL gives me a coaching opportunity, I can definitely consider it. If I become the head coach of India, I will have to return to the same routine that I have done for 15 years. To play for the Indian team, you have to stay out for 8-9 months a year. If I become the head coach of India, staying away from my children will be the biggest challenge for me. I will not be able to give time to my children. But yes, if the role of coach or mentor is available in the IPL, I can accept it.

“He is the most dangerous bowler…”, former Indian coach said about Mohammad Siraj
When the conditions are right and the ball keeps reversing, Siraj is probably one of the most dangerous bowlers in world cricket – Bharat Arun Mohammad Siraj (Photo Source: Team India has to play a two-match Test series against Bangladesh at home from 19 September next month. Before this series, some Indian players are going to play in the upcoming season of Duleep Trophy. At the same time, players like Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Shami and Jaspreet Bumrah are on rest. Fast bowler Mohammad Siraj was going to play for Team-B in the Duleep Trophy, but has been ruled out of the first round due to illness. Meanwhile, India’s former bowling coach Bharat Arun has made a big statement about Siraj. Bharat Arun says that Siraj is one of the most dangerous bowlers in the world. Along with this, the former coach has also suggested Team India to look for other fast bowling options. Many bowlers bowl at the speed of 140-150 in IPL- Bharat Arun Team India has to tour Australia at the end of the year for a five-match Test series under the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. The team has a lot of depth in batting, but the fast bowling attack is weak. Apart from Jasprit Bumrah, Siraj, Mohammed Shami, the team does not have any fourth option. Young bowlers like Mukesh Kumar and Akash Deep have made their Test debuts, but no one knows whether they will be able to be effective on Australian soil or not. Shardul Thakur, who played an important role in the victory in the last series in Australia, is currently out of form. Former Indian bowling coach Bharat Arun has suggested to the management that they should look for some other options in the fast bowling attack by the end of November. Bharat Arun also stressed that it is important to become a good red ball format fast bowler before anything else if one wants to play for India for a long time. Speaking to the Indian Express, he said, It is a question of identifying the right bowlers and giving them the opportunity to prepare for the Australia tour. A lot of bowlers bowl at 140-150 in the IPL. So it is about training them properly and giving them experience. Red ball cricket is something these bowlers have to get used to. We have time but we need to prepare them by giving them enough overs. Bharat Arun further said, In first-class cricket you bowl on unresponsive pitches. You have to bowl smartly, otherwise you have to learn to reverse the ball because such are the conditions in our country. I think that helped Siraj and Shami a lot. That’s why when the conditions are right and the ball keeps reversing, Siraj is probably one of the most dangerous bowlers in world cricket.
Former coach wants to see Steve Smith at number-4 in BGT 2024-25, said- “This is the right position for him…”
I think he is best suited to bat at number four for the Australian cricket team – Justin Langer Steve Smith (Photo Source: X/Twitter) After David Warner’s retirement from the Test format, Steve Smith expressed his desire to open and the management backed him and gave him that position. But Smith has not been able to show anything special in the opening position so far. He scored 91 runs in the Gaba Test against West Indies, which is his first fifty-plus score in four innings while opening. Smith’s average as an opener in Tests is 28.50, which is much less than his 56.97 in this format. Meanwhile, former Australia head coach Justin Langer feels that Steve Smith should return to number four in the next Test series, which is against India. He has said that the experienced batsman will definitely improve as an opener, but Smith will do better at number four. Smith’s opening partner Usman Khawaja also feels that the veteran should bat at number four. Steve Smith can bat at any number: Justin Langer Speaking on the Cricket et al podcast, Justin Langer said, He is our greatest player, great players adapt to conditions, they can bat at any position. I think he is best suited to bat at number four for the Australian cricket team. Justin Langer further said, I think it is a specialised position (No. 4). It is not that he cannot do it (open the batting). I would love to see him bat at No. 4, but then they have to work out who will not play. I think it was about trying to bring Cameron Green up. Australia is scheduled to play a five-match Test series against India under the Border-Gavaskar Trophy from November. The Kangaroo team had to face a 2-1 defeat in the last two Test series against India at home. The team is desperate to give a crushing defeat to Rohit Sharma and company in the upcoming series. Skipper Pat Cummins has already confirmed that he will back all-rounders in the five-match series and if he wants to keep both Cameron Green and Mitchell Marsh in the team, Smith will remain in the playing XI as an opener.
‘Can’t keep him wrapped in cotton wool…’- Former bowling coach gives important advice to BCCI regarding Mayank Yadav
Mayank Yadav (Photo Source: IPL/BCCI) Paras Mhambrey on Mayank Yadav: Mayank Yadav created a sensation with his fast bowling in IPL 2024. Lucknow Super Giants fast bowler Mayank played only four matches in IPL 2024. In these four matches, Mayank bowled the fourth fastest ball in IPL history this year. He bowled consistently at a speed of 150 kilometers per hour and took 7 wickets at an economy rate of 6.99. After seeing his pace bowling, cricket experts had talked about including Mayank in Team India. But, Mayank has been away from cricket since the injury in IPL 2024 and is constantly working hard to make a comeback. Now former bowling coach of the Indian cricket team Paras Mhambrey has said a big thing about him. Paras Mahambre gave a big statement about Mayank Yadav Former India bowling coach Paras Mhambrey believes that the time has come for the BCCI to introduce Mayank in competitive cricket, especially first-class cricket. Paras Mhambrey said, “I don’t agree that if he is not ready, don’t feed him. This is the age when he should bowl. The more you bowl, the more control you will have, you will know how much your body can bowl. You can’t stop him saying he will get injured. We can’t make him bowl too much and tire him out, but we have to be smart about how much he should bowl. As a fast bowler, he needs to play first-class cricket.” Mhambrey further said, “When you play a season, you understand your bowling. You bowl in different conditions. Physically, you will be tested at different stages of the game. Sometimes, you have to be on the field for six sessions. And being able to bowl with the same intensity in the last session will give you confidence when you play internationally. I strongly feel that Mayank needs to work hard in the domestic season.
