However, despite this, coach Andre Kohli is very positive and said that there were many positive things to learn from this tour. Kohli said about the series against England, with an emerging team, a lot would have been said about its walkover. Obviously we should have performed better, but we showed a lot of fight during the series. From a batting point of view, I was quite happy with our scoring rate, pace, especially in the second Test. You don’t get great performances every day – Andre Collie He further said that, as far as the bowlers are concerned, the English conditions have greatly influenced the young attack in terms of correcting their line-length and handling crowd pressure. These were the important positives that we have learned from this series, as we now move on to the series with South Africa. Andre Collie said, “You’re not going to have great performances every day. But one thing you can really have some control over is going through your processes every day and giving yourself the best chance to perform.” The first test against South Africa will begin on August 7. Now the West Indies team will play a two-Test match series against South Africa from next week. In the meantime, the team has only a few days off left. The first Test against South Africa will be played in Port of Spain on 7 August and the second Test will be played in Guyana from 15-19 August. Let us tell you that the West Indies team has won only two of the last 11 Test matches. And after losing the two-match Test series to India, the Caribbean team is going to play on home ground for the first time in more than a year.

In his statement, Jayasuriya has talked about various aspects of Jaiswal’s game and said that the Indian cricket team has done a great job by investing in him.

He has the passion and desire to perform well and he is working very hard to do so. He has made sacrifices and he is a dedicated kid. Therefore, he is performing. I have heard about one skill of his and it is quite impressive for him. Recently I did a session with Zubin (Bharucha), his performance director at Rajasthan Royals, and he told me how hard Jaiswal works. Jayasuriya further said about Jasprit Bumrah- He (Bumrah) is a unique bowler. We need to respect him and his skills. On his day, you will need to respect him, but then there are days when he does not live up to expectations, on those days you need to take advantage of him. Bowlers like him are at the top because their thinking is clear, they do what they want to do.

Hasan Ali gave a big statement on Mohammad Hafeez’s claim of ‘sleeping’ in the dressing room during the Australia tour

Mohammad Hafeez was the team director on the Australia tour Hasan Ali and Mohammad Hafeez (Image Credit- Twitter Recently, a big statement came from the former director of the Pakistan cricket team, Mohammad Hafeez, when he said that during the Pak team’s tour to Australia, some players were seen sleeping in the dressing room. It is noteworthy that since November last year, Hafeez had not only become the director of the Pakistan team but was also seen in the role of interim coach of the team on the New Zealand tour after the Australia tour. But now a big statement has come from the team’s fast bowler Hasan Ali on this statement of Hafeez. Let us tell you that last year when Pakistan was on a tour to Australia for a three-match Test series, Hasan Ali was also a part of that team. Hasan Ali gave a big reaction It is worth noting that Hafeez recently said on the Club Praire Podcast with Michael Vaughan and Adam Gilchrist – Gilly, you tell me. When we are playing Test cricket, can a player sleep in the dressing room? And when 4-5 players are sleeping in the dressing room, should I, as a team director, allow this? On the other hand, on this statement of Hafeez, Hasan Ali said on Pakistan’s local media platform – I really don’t know, but whatever Hafeez said, it should be done. I don’t think anyone slept in the dressing room after that. When Hafeez said that I was not a part of the first game, all the players who were not part of the playing eleven were watching the game sitting in the dugout. The management was also sitting there. Ali further said- But I would say in Test cricket, especially for fast bowlers, when you bowl for a day and a half you need to recover, and you can take a nap of 20-30 minutes. But this is only for those who feel that they need it.

After failing in IPL, Hardik no longer gets respect in Team India, former Sri Lankan cricketer gave a shocking statement

After Gautam Gambhir became the new coach, Hardik had to lose the captaincy of the Indian team in the T20 format. Hardik Pandya (Photo Source: BCCI) About a month ago, when the Indian cricket team won the title of ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024, Hardik Pandya was the vice-captain of that team India. However, after the departure of Rahul Dravid and Gautam Gambhir becoming the new head coach of Team India, Hardik has lost the captaincy of the T20 format. The Indian cricket team management has shown faith in experienced Suryakumar Yadav instead of Hardik Pandya, which is considered to be the beginning of a new era for Surya and Gambhir. Along with this, the responsibility of vice-captaincy has been handed over to young Shubman Gill. So, when Mumbai Indians made Hardik Pandya the captain in place of Rohit Sharma in a dramatic manner before the start of IPL 2024, it was not liked not only by cricket experts but also by MI fans. Whenever Hardik came to the field to toss or bat, he had to face boos. So Mumbai Indians could not do anything special under the captaincy of Hardik Pandya and finished the tournament at number 10. On the other hand, now Hardik Pandya will be seen playing on India’s tour of Sri Lanka from July 27. But before the start of this tour of Team India, a big statement of former Sri Lankan cricketer Russell Arnold has come to the fore. Russell Arnold made a big statement Let us tell you that before India’s tour against Sri Lanka started, Russell Arnold, as quoted by Sports Tak, said – Both (Surya and Hardik) are exceptional players. They bring different things to the team. Suryakumar Yadav is one of the best T20 batsmen. The way he plays, it seems that no one reads the game better than him. Arnold further said- Hardik has also shown these things. But I think that after the way his IPL 2024 went, he has not been able to get the kind of respect in Team India, which BCCI must have thought about him at one time.

VIDEO: Gautam Gambhir was seen spending time with Sanju Samson in the practice session, gave batting tips

Sanju Samson & Gautam Gambhir (Photo Source: The Indian cricket team sweated it out on the field in its first practice session before the white ball series against Sri Lanka. Gautam Gambhir started performing his duties a day after reaching Sri Lanka. The Indian team took part in its first practice session under the leadership of Gambhir. India is scheduled to play a three-match T20 series against Sri Lanka from July 27, after which an equal number of ODI series will also be played. Let us tell you that the Indian team will play under the leadership of Suryakumar Yadav in T20, while Rohit Sharma will lead the team in ODIs. After becoming the head coach, Gambhir led the team during the training session and inspected the practice session. During this, the players did light practice which included fielding practice, running and ball catching practice. During this, the players of the team were seen talking to the new captain of the T20 International team, Suryakumar Yadav. Gautam Gambhir was seen giving batting tips to Sanju Samson during the training session Let us tell you that during this practice session, Gautam Gambhir spent time with all-rounder Shivam Dubey on the field after talking to Sanju Samson who was practicing batting. Gambhir also gave some batting tips to Samson. It is known that Samson was a part of the 15-member Indian team of the T20 World Cup, but he did not get a chance to play a single match during the tournament. Team India’s new beginnin-💴💴💙🇮🇳@ArohiThatte gives us some insight into #MenInBlue‘s day 1️⃣ training session 🏏#SonySportsNetwork #SLvIND #TeamIndia pic.twitter.com/eI0PViYgEq — Sony Sports Network (@SonySportsNetwk) July 24, 2024 Although Samson has been selected in the T20 squad, the team already has a wicketkeeper batsman in the form of Rishabh Pant. In such a situation, it is not clear whether the captain of Rajasthan Royals will be included in Team India’s playing eleven or not. It is very unfortunate that Samson made his T20 debut for India in 2015 at the age of only 20. In the last 9 years, he has been able to play only 28 matches for Team India. Now it remains to be seen how many opportunities Sanju Samson gets on this tour of Sri Lanka. The first T20 match of the series between India and Sri Lanka will be played on 27 July.

PCB gave a big tension to ICC, this trick was used to call India to Pakistan for Champions Trophy

The Champions Trophy will be played under the hosting of Pakistan in 2025. Champions trophy 2025 (Image Credit- Twitter The ICC Champions Trophy will be played in 2025 under the hosting of Pakistan. A total of 8 teams will participate in this tournament. There is no clarity on whether the Indian team will go to Pakistan for this Champions Trophy or not. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has made it clear that the government will decide on playing in Pakistan. The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has been trying to convince the BCCI for a long time. However, PCB has now given up this tension and has adopted a new strategy. PCB has handed over the task of convincing India to come to Pakistan for the Champions Trophy to the International Cricket Council (ICC). Let us tell you that in the Asia Cup held last year under the hosting of PCB, India played all its matches in Sri Lanka on the basis of ‘hybrid model’. However, there is no clarity on whether the ‘hybrid model’ will be adopted in the Champions Trophy or not. Although the Champions Trophy budget was approved at the recent ICC meeting in Colombo, the schedule and format were not discussed. The ICC has kept supplementary expenses in its tournament budget to deal with any situation, including the possibility of the Indian team playing its matches outside Pakistan. This report came out regarding Champions Trophy According to media reports, a PCB source said, “The PCB has now done what was expected of it as the host of the Champions Trophy. It has submitted the draft schedule and format of the competition and has also submitted the budget for the competition.” He said, “Now it is up to the ICC how quickly they circulate, discuss and finalise the schedule of the Champions Trophy. The PCB has suggested in the draft schedule to host all the matches of India in Lahore including the semi-finals (if India qualifies) and the final.”

“It is good that he retired…” Who is Yogesh Patel who gave this statement about Rohit Sharma?

Rohit Sharma has joined MS Dhoni, Sourav Ganguly and Kapil Dev as one of the few Indian captains to win an ICC trophy. (Source X) Rohit Sharma couldn’t have ended his T20 career better than this. At the age of 37, Rohit gave himself two chances to win the ICC trophy last year, but he finished second both times. India finished runners-up in the ODI World Cup and the ICC World Test Championship. He could have ended his career without an ICC trophy. However, luck favoured him and Rohit led India to victory in the 2024 T20 World Cup and ended his trophy drought. In many knockout matches in the last 11 years, the team was knocked out of the knockout stage under extreme pressure, but this time Team India crossed the finish line. Rohit has become one of the Indian captains to win the ICC trophy along with MS Dhoni, Sourav Ganguly and Kapil Dev. Who is Yogesh Patel? 25 years ago, Rohit took admission in Swami Vivekananda International School. The school’s director Yogesh Patel gave Rohit a freeship so that he could study in his school. Patel has given some statements in an exclusive interview to India Today. A memorable ending for Rohit Sharma Needless to say, Rohit was nearing the end of his career. But his decision to retire from T20 came as a surprise to many. He had scored 257 runs in eight innings at an average of 36.71. His 92-run innings against Australia was specialespecially when he hit fours off Mitchell Starc. According to Patel, Rohit made the right decision to say goodbye to his T20 career. He said that instead of retiring under pressure due to other reasons, he made the right decision to retire in a grand manner. ‘Rohit knows what he has to do’ – Patel “It was a surprise and shock for us and the whole country because everyone wanted to see Rohit as captain; if not captain, then as a player. But when he announced his retirement, I felt it was a good decision because he was at the top. He is very smart, and he is also mature and talented. So, he knows what he has to do.” Will return in ODI format After winning the T20 World Cup, Rohit will be back to play for India in the ODI series against Sri Lanka in July. If Rohit is to win another ICC trophy, he will have to wait for about 12 more months, provided India reach the WTC final. The ODI World Cup seems a bit far-fetched as Rohit will be past 40 by then. But regardless of the results, Rohit will go down as one of India’s greatest captains.

A total of three venues have been shortlisted for this tournament. However, it is also expected that this competition will be hosted in a country other than Pakistan. This is because India will not tour Pakistan to play in the Champions Trophy 2025. So far, no statement has come from the Board of Control for Cricket in India regarding this, but there may be a change in the venue of the Champions Trophy 2025. In this, Sri Lanka or UAE can be included in the backup venue. Pakistan’s veteran fast bowler Hasan Ali has put forth his view on this. According to Hasan Ali, if India does not tour Pakistan for the Champion Trophy 2025, then this event should be organized without them. Hasan Ali said on Sama TV, ‘If we are going to India and playing, then they should also come to Pakistan. Many people have said this many times that sports should not be linked to politics. But if you look at it from a different perspective, many Indian players have said in interviews that they also want to play in Pakistan. This does not mean that the team does not want to come there. All the players want this but politics, country and board are not allowing this to happen.’ If India doesn’t want to come then we should play the Champions Trophy without them: Hasan Ali Hasan Ali further said, ‘Like our Pakistan Cricket Board president has said that if the Champions Trophy is to be held in Pakistan, it will be held here only. Apart from Pakistan, no other country should host this tournament. If India does not want to come, then we will have to play without them. Cricket should be played in Pakistan only and if India does not want to participate here, it does not mean that cricket is completely over. There are other teams apart from India.’ Let us tell you, India last visited Pakistan in 2008. Asia Cup 2023 was to be held in Pakistan but India refused to travel here. However, after this the tournament was played under the hybrid model.
