“It is a matter of concern that….”- Statement of former legendary cricketer after losing the ODI series against Sri Lanka
Virat Kohli (Pic Source-X) After losing the ODI series against Sri Lanka 2-0, former Indian opener and current expert Wasim Jaffer has expressed concern. Jaffer’s concern is not about the fact that Team India lost the series but he has expressed his concern about the Indian team’s preparations before the Champions Trophy to be held in Pakistan next year. He says that playing only three ODIs before the Champions Trophy is a matter of concern for India. Actually, the Champions Trophy is to be held in February-March next year and after the Sri Lanka tour, India will have only three ODIs to prepare for this tournament, which they have to play against England in 2025. Wasim Jaffer wrote on X, ‘Sri Lanka played better cricket and deserves to win the series. I am not worried that India lost the series. Winning and losing is a part of the game. However, it is a matter of concern that India has only 3 ODIs left before the Champions Trophy.’ SL played better cricket and deserve the series win. It doesn’t worry me that India lost a series. Wins and losses are part of the game. However it’s a point of concern that India has just 3 ODIs before the Champions Trophy. #SLvIND — Wasim Jaffer (@WasimJaffer14) August 7, 2024 Let us tell you, after 1997, the Sri Lankan team has been successful in winning the ODI series against India. The first match of this three-match series was a tie. After this, the host team won the next two matches in a one-sided manner.

“I don’t remember the last time this happened”- Aakash Chopra on Virat Kohli’s poor performance
Virat Kohli LBW. (Photo Source: Sony Liv) India’s star batsman Virat Kohli scored 24, 14 and 20 runs respectively in the recently concluded three-match ODI series against Sri Lanka and interestingly, he got out against spinners in all the matches. Meanwhile, former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra said, Kohli, who is known to be a very good player of spin, misread the line and length against them. Virat Kohli was out LBW in all the matches of the ODI series against Sri Lanka and every time a review was taken on the ball of his dismissal. ODI series In the first match, Wanindu Hasaranga dismissed him, while Jeffrey Vandersay and Dunith Welalage took his wickets in the second and third matches respectively. Kohli’s struggle against spin is not new. In the last few years, he has struggled a lot against wrist spinners and this trend continued in the Sri Lanka series as well. Aakash Chopra gave a big statement about Virat Kohli Regarding this, Aakash Chopra said on his YouTube channel, “Virat Kohli was LBW three times in three innings against spinners. I don’t remember when this happened last time, he was playing the wrong line and also used the review every time. He was not able to put pressure on the bowlers with his batting in the series.” The cricketer-turned-commentator also spoke about Shreyas Iyer, who has also struggled in the series. Iyer made his debut after being dropped from BCCI’s central contract but failed to make a mark in the three-match series. He had a great chance to perform well and cement his place in the squad for the Champions Trophy 2025, but Iyer scored only 38 runs in the series. Speaking about this, Chopra said that he is not sure why good spin players are struggling. He said, “Shreyas Iyer is considered a good player of spin, but he too was unable to counter the spinners twice and got out due to speed once. If the performance of our good spin players is like this, then I don’t know why this is happening.”

However, this pitch proved to be very helpful for their bowlers and they also took full advantage of it. Junaid Khan tweeted this about Jaspreet Bumrah Junaid said that India’s bowling attack is “zero” without Jasprit Bumrah, who was rested for the series.

Vinesh Phogat (Photo Source: X/Twitter) Vinesh Phogat is the 2024 Paris Olympics winner Seeing the way India’s star female wrestler Vinesh Phogat won three matches one after the other and made it to the finals on 7 August in the Paris Olympics, everyone believed that Vinesh would definitely bring a gold medal for her country. But this dream of Vinesh Phogat as well as crores of Indians has been shattered. Vinesh Phogat had made it to the finals by winning all her three matches in the women’s 50 kg category on Tuesday. During this time, Vinesh also defeated Tokyo Olympics gold medalist Susaki. Meanwhile, on Wednesday morning, news came that Vinesh Phogat has been disqualified. This means that she has been declared ineligible to play in the final match. Vinesh Phogat’s weight was 100 grams more than the prescribed weight and due to this she was disqualified. Hearing this news, millions of Indian fans including Vinesh were disappointed. Actually, according to the rules regarding weighing, the wrestler’s weight is taken on the day when he has to fight. The matches of every weight category are held within two days, so the wrestlers who reach the final or repechage have to get weighed on both days. The wrestler has 30 minutes for the first time while getting weighed. They can weigh themselves as many times as they want within 30 minutes. During this time, it is also checked that the wrestler does not have any infectious disease and his nails are cut very short. Wrestlers who have to compete for the second consecutive day are given 15 minutes to weigh themselves. The Indian Olympic Association (IOA) confirmed that Vinesh Phogat has been disqualified due to being overweight. The association said, “The Indian team is saddened to report that Vinesh Phogat has been disqualified from the 50 kg category of women’s wrestling. Despite the best efforts made by the team overnight, this morning her weight was a few grams more than 50 kg. There will be no further comment by the team at this time. The Indian team requests you to respect Vinesh’s privacy. She would like to focus on the current competitions.” Paris Olympics 2024 Vinesh Phogat: Cricketers gave such reactions on Vinesh Phogat being out A day of relentless fights, defying the craziest of odds, breaking the world number 1’s perfect streak.

Athletes don’t need that, they need respect. We must change our mindset towards sporting losses. #respect — Shreevats goswami (@shreevats1) August 7, 2024 I completely agree! Supporting our athletes is crucial, regardless of the outcome. Their dedication, hard work, and the spirit they bring to the games is something we should all appreciate and celebrate.

Know why it has become necessary for the Indian team to include Rishabh Pant in its playing XI in the third ODI against Sri Lanka
The third and final ODI between Sri Lanka and India is scheduled to be played on July 7 at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo. Rishabh Pant (Image Credit- Twitter X) The third and final ODI match between Sri Lanka and India is to be played on July 7 at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo. So far, two matches have been played between these two teams in this ODI series. The first match ended in a tie between the two teams while the second was won by Sri Lanka by 32 runs. The most surprising thing in both these matches was that at one time India was in a very strong position but due to the poor performance of the middle order, the team failed to win both the matches. Now India will definitely want to win the third match between these two teams. It can also be expected that the excellent wicketkeeper batsman Rishabh Pant may return to India’s playing XI. Rishabh Pant’s performance has been very good in international ODI cricket and he can be seen playing in the third ODI in place of KL Rahul. Talking about KL Rahul, he batted very poorly in the second ODI and was out without opening his account. Today we tell you the three main reasons why Rishabh Pant should play for the Indian team in the third ODI against Sri Lanka. 1- Rishabh Pant can prove to be very lethal against spinners Rishabh Pant (Image Credit- Twitter X) So far in the two ODI matches, it has been seen that Sri Lanka’s spinners have constantly put pressure on the Indian batsmen. Spinners are getting a lot of help on the Colombo pitch. The host also knows this very well and is playing with 4 specialist spinners. So far, apart from Rohit Sharma, no other Indian batsman has been able to put pressure on Sri Lankan spinners. If Rishabh Pant is seen playing in the third ODI, then Sri Lankan spinners may face a lot of problems. This is also because Rishabh Pant’s performance has always been very good against spinners. Rishabh Pant’s strike rate in the middle overs against spinners in ODIs is 105.
