“I am very happy with Smith’s performance at number 4” – Cummins probably does not want to make Steve Smith the opener.
Pat Cummins and Steve Smith (Pic Source-Twitter) Ever since David Warner announced his retirement from Test cricket, many opening batsmen have been seen as his replacement, especially in Test cricket. Players like Marcus Harris, Cameron Bancroft and Matt Renshaw were included in this list. However, the team management was open to the idea of trying Cameron Green at the top of the order along with Usman Khawaja. AlthoughBefore the third Test against Pakistan in Sydney, Steve Smith had expressed his desire to open, which made the decision even more difficult for the team management. marnus labuschagne supported the idea and said that it would give him a lot of motivation to improve in the longest format. However, captain Pat Cummins does not support this and is happy with Smith playing at number four. The captain said that he has no problem from numbers 3 to 6, as Labuschagne, Smith, Travis Head and Mitchell Marsh have performed well. Steve Smith will bat at number 4 only – Pat Cummins Pat Cummins was quoted by Cricbuzz as saying, “I am very happy with (Smith’s) performance at number 4. Obviously Marnus (Labuschen), Steve (Smith), Travie (Head) and (Mitchell) Marsh have been very influential at Nos. 3, 4, 5 and 6. So the first instinct is probably not to disrupt it.” Warner was a tremendous player in red-ball cricket and Cummins said that it would be difficult for anyone to replace him. The 30-year-old did not give a clear indication of the player who could replace Warner in the final playing XI, but said that players who have scored runs in the Sheffield Shield will be considered for this. Cummins said, “Obviously it will be really difficult to repeat what Davey has done. I think what you really look for is who is in the best position to score runs. But I think, in Test cricket, there are some things that remain true – and that is that you have to put pressure on the opponent. You have to tick the scoreboard. Not always – but most of the time – you have to keep the scoreboard moving. There are some thoughts, but realistically, if someone is scoring runs in Shield cricket, it is probably a good sign that they can do it at the next level.” Also read: Wasim Akram got furious on social media, read what is the whole matter

“There was some pain in his body, so the team management….”- Pakistan’s head coach said on the exclusion of Shaheen Afridi.
Pakistan had rested Shaheen Shah Afridi for the third and final Test against Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground. The visiting team went with off-spinner Sajid Khan in place of the fast bowler. Shaheen took eight wickets at a good economy rate of 3.35 during the two matches in Perth and Melbourne. Meanwhile, Pakistan men’s team director and head coach Mohammad Hafeez said Shaheen was given a break to “manage his workload”. Shaheen had also said during the Sydney Test that the team management had decided to keep him out for the last match of the series. Mohammad Hafeez said on giving rest to Shaheen Afridi Mohammad Hafeez was quoted as saying by India Today, “Shaheen did not take any rest at all because of T20 cricket. There was some pain in his body. He was not feeling very comfortable. As a team director, I have to ensure that no player goes into that zone where he can get injured. “I gave myself enough time to recover before that zone.” Hafeez further said, “He has worked hard in the last one year after returning from injury and the workload on him is very high. We wanted to give him leave and manage his workload. I don’t know what happened earlier, but at this time, I wanted to ensure that no bowler’s career gets spoiled due to workload not being managed.” Let us tell you that Shaheen Afridi was made the captain of Pakistan’s T20 team in November and was given the vice-captaincy of the Test team just before the Perth Test. He will take command of the team for the first time in T20 on New Zealand tour. T20 series will be played between Pakistan and New Zealand from 12 to 21 January.
