Let us tell you that the five-match Test series between Team India and Australia is starting from November 22. The first test between these two teams will be played in Perth. The Australia team has not played any Test match since March this year, while Team India recently suffered a 0-3 defeat in the three-match Test series against New Zealand. If Team India wants to secure its place in the final of the World Test Championship 2024-25, then they will have to win the upcoming Test series against Australia by a long margin. Chetan Sharma while talking to Times of India said, ‘I can say 100 percent that Team India will beat Australia in Australia. Under Rohit’s captaincy we will complete the hat-trick of wins in Australia. India will beat Australia once again in their own home. We have beaten Australia twice in a row at their home. The pressure will be on Australia. This pressure will be on Australian captain Pat Cummins and not on Rohit Sharma. Whenever Team India has toured Australia, we have enjoyed a lot. We have praised the game of Team India not only in Australia but also in the tour of South Africa and England. Whenever the players of the opposing team have said that this is going to be a very good series, then we can understand that there will be pressure inside them also. Chetan Sharma presented his side regarding Rohit and Virat Regarding Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, who are struggling with poor form, Chetan Sharma said, ‘We should respect Rohit and Virat. These two are never out of form. We should never use wrong words for both of these. We should be happy that both these players are still performing well and are playing an important role in Team India’s victory every time. I am confident that Virat and Rohit will be seen batting brilliantly in Australia. Let us tell you that, if Team India wants to secure its place in the final of the World Test Championship, then they will have to win the five-match Test series against Australia by 4-0. If Team India fails to do this then it will be very difficult for them to reach the final of this important event.

The ball passed between his legs and hit the wicket. The way he got out in this match, hardly any batsman gets out in international cricket. Talking about this match, Team India, which came to bat first after losing the toss, scored only 161 runs in the first innings. Out of these 161 runs, 80 came from Jurel’s bat.

By the end of the second day’s play, the Indian team had lost five wickets till the score was 73.

I have full confidence that this team will win the World Cup.” What is the biggest challenge for India? “I have always believed that you should have faith in your daily routine and your work ethic. So I don’t see any challenge. There is a lot of talent in our team, from the opening batsmen to the middle order. Even lower down the order we have all-rounders who can hit sixes. So I am confident that there is no flaw or minus point in this team.” Focus on yourself instead of others: S Sreesanth Sreesanth, who was part of India’s T20 World Cup-winning team in 2007 and ODI World Cup-winning team in 2011, advised India to focus on themselves rather than worrying about other teams. “More than focusing on…
‘We hurt the confidence of our batsmen’: Harbhajan Singh on Test cricket ending in a 2-3 draw
Let’s know what Harbhajan Singh said Harbhajan Singh (Image Credit- Twitter X) Former Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh has recently been seen criticizing the Indian management. In this criticism, Harbhajan has blamed the management for preparing spin-friendly pitches when Test matches end in 2-3 days. On the other hand, pitches are always a topic of discussion when it comes to Test matches, especially in India, when big teams like Australia and England come to India to play. The Indian management always focuses on making such pitches that help the host team. So sometimes, not only foreign teams face difficulty in batting on spin friendly pitches, but Indian batsmen also seem to be quite troubled. Big batsmen like Virat Kohli have also been affected by this in the recent past. It is worth noting that among the players who have played more than 8 Test matches in India after the year 2020, only Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill and Ravindra Jadeja have an average above 40. But now giving a big statement on this, Harbhajan has said that pitches play an important role in the game, but when the pitch starts turning from 3-4 days in a Test match, this is not seen now. And due to this the confidence of the batsmen has decreased. Harbhajan Singh gave a big statement Let us tell you that in a recent interview to Sports Tak, Harbhajan Singh said- We have started playing on pitches that take more turn. We wanted to win and we won but do we want to win in two and a half days? I think, if we had prepared normal pitches that would have started turning from the third and fourth day, we would have still won but the batsmen would have got time to settle in. We would not have been discussing the problems our batsmen have against spinners. We have hurt the confidence of our batsmen, because on those pitches anyone gets out cheaply.
When you perform well under pressure situations, you gain confidence: Axar Patel
India defeated Sri Lanka by 43 runs in the first T20 match. Axar Patel (Image Credit- Twitter X) When India was in a precarious position against South Africa in the final of the T20 World Cup 2024, Axar Patel came to bat at number 4 for India. Axar handled the Indian innings by scoring 47 runs in 31 balls. However, even after batting like this, he has not been able to ensure his batting position in the top order of Team India. In the first T20 match against Sri Lanka, Akshar Patel came to bat at number 8, and he played a brilliant innings of 10* runs in 5 balls, due to which Team India was successful in scoring 213 runs against Sri Lanka. After playing a quick innings of 10 runs, Akshar also bowled brilliantly and took the wickets of the dangerous Pathum Nissanka and Kusal Perera, playing a key role in the team’s 43-run victory. On the other hand, now a big statement has come from Axar Patel on batting in such a situation. Axar says that when he bats in such a pressure situation, he gets confidence. Akshar Patel gave a big statement Let us tell you that after India’s first T20 match against Sri Lanka, Akshar Patel said as quoted by Cricbuzz- When you play cricket consistently for India and when you perform well under pressure, you get confidence. And every time you get confidence, you always learn from it. It’s not that you will always perform well in pressure situations, you may also fail. But those situations teach you that I can do things differently and it has taught me a lot especially in the last year. On the other hand, if we tell you about this T20 series, then the Indian team has taken a 1-0 lead by winning the first match of the T20 series. So now the second T20 match between the two teams will be played today on 28th July in Pallekele.
