Sachin sir was retreating, but I too was not able to say anything. I told him, ‘I was told that all this had to be done. That’s why I’m doing it. I later came to know that it was a prank. Irfan Pathan, Yuvraj Singh and Harbhajan Singh were also involved in it. Munaf Patel was also a part of this funny incident, who used to instigate other players to do such things. All of them together had framed me.” Virat Kohli talking about the prank when he meets Sachin Tendulkar for the first time. – He said “Main pair main gir gaya Sachin Paaji ke”.pic.twitter.com/ocxbbvBinn — Tanuj Singh (@ImTanujSingh) November 7, 2024 Virat Kohli was recently seen playing in the series against New Zealand.

Sandeep Patil wrote big things about former Indian coach Chappell, Wright and Kumble in his Autobiography.

Sandeep Patil believes that John Wright was successful as the Indian coach because he gave free rein to the players. 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.

Neither Virat, nor Rohit; This player will score the most runs in BGT 2024-25, Ponting made a big prediction

Ricky Ponting made a big prediction regarding the upcoming Border Gavaskar Trophy. India Australia Ricky Ponting (Photo Source: Twitter) The five-match Test series between India and Australia under the Border-Gavaskar Trophy is starting from November 22. There is a lot of talk going on in the cricket world right now regarding this series. Former Australian captain Ricky Ponting has made a big prediction regarding this series. Ponting has named the two players who, according to him, can score the most runs in this series. Ricky Ponting has selected one Indian and one Australian player. In fact, Ponting, while talking in the ICC review, said that the top scorers in the Border Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 could be Rishabh Pant and Steve Smith. Rishabh Pant now has the experience of playing in Australia, while Steve Smith is already Australia’s star player and he knows his conditions. Ricky Ponting made a big prediction regarding BGT 2024-25 Ricky Ponting said, “I think Smith, the fact that he has moved back from opening batsman to No. 4 probably makes him feel that he has more to prove. He has to prove that he can give his best at number four. At the same time, with Rishabh Pant coming back into the team and possibly batting in the middle order when the shine and hardness of the ball reduces a bit and the form he is in, I would also pick him as the leading run scorer.” Ricky Ponting has also told who is going to win this series. However, they have already predicted this and are still sticking to the same prediction. Ricky Ponting has said that Australia will win 3-1 in this series played under the World Test Championship. Regarding India’s bowling, Ponting said, “There has been a huge difference in that bowling group because of Mohammed Shami. Even at that time (in August) there was some speculation whether Shami would be fit or not. I think the biggest challenge for India will be to take 20 wickets in every Test match. I think they will bat well here with the current batsmen, but their problem is going to be in bowling.
