Team India has to play 10 Test matches in the coming few months and all these matches are going to be important keeping in mind the World Test Championship. If India has to play the final of this WTC cycle, then Virat’s form in these 10 Test matches is going to be very important for the team. Virat Kohli will rain runs in Bangladesh series- Suresh Raina Before the start of the series, former veteran batsman Suresh Raina has made a big prediction. Raina believes that Virat Kohli’s bat will do well in the upcoming series. Quoted by Times of India, Raina said, “Rohit Sharma is a great captain. He has also proved this. Under his leadership, Team India has won the T20 series. However, everyone’s attention will be on Virat Kohli’s return to Test cricket. Kohli likes Test cricket a lot, he also respects this format.” Raina says that Team India has to play a total of 10 matches before the final match of the World Test Championship. Here Virat Kohli’s bat will work well and he will prove to be decisive for the country. In the upcoming series, the Indian team has to face teams like Bangladesh, New Zealand and Australia. Kohli’s performance will improve further against the good bowling attack of the opposition team. Suresh Raina said that Virat Kohli excels under pressure. He will be the center of action during the tournament. The opposition team definitely has a strong fast bowling lineup, but you should remember that Kohli has shown his full potential against bowlers like Haris Rauf. He likes challenges and I am sure he will shine in front of the people in the upcoming series. India will be eyeing another WTC final India currently top the WTC points table with a win percentage of 68.52%. However, they have lost the last two consecutive WTC finals against New Zealand and Australia. India will look to secure their place in the final again by registering series wins in the upcoming series against Bangladesh, New Zealand and Australia.

Yashasvi Jaiswal got bowled by Jasprit Bumrah in the nets According to a report in the Indian Express, Kohli was standing near the centre-square of the MA Chidambaram Stadium waiting for his turn to bat, where this incident took place. During this time, Jasprit Bumrah bowled Jaiswal by uprooting his middle stump in the nets. The ball hit the stump between Jaiswal’s bat and pad. After this, Jaiswal was seen talking to Virat Kohli. Virat Kohli was probably telling this young player about his shortcomings. Kohli and Jaiswal batted for about an hour in the net session. During this, Bumrah also troubled Kohli. Kohli, however, played some brilliant cover and on drives. Jaiswal looked comfortable against spin bowlers. Still, during the practice session, Jaiswal’s confidence seemed to be shaken and he was not able to adjust to the swing and bounce. However, he used his feet well against the spinners and hit some brilliant square cuts. After this, Rishabh Pant, who came for practice, did not hesitate to play aggressive shots while batting against left-arm spinners. Indian players also did fielding practice during this time, in which priority was given to the practice of catching catches in the slips.

Shubhaman Gill may be out of Bangladesh series, this wicketkeeper batsman may get a chance to return
Shubman Gill (Photo Source: Getty Images) India’s white-ball vice-captain Shubman Gill is likely to be rested for the three-match T20 series against Bangladesh. The series will start on Sunday, October 6 in Gwalior. Gill, who is an integral part of the Indian Test team, may be rested as part of workload management. According to media reports, Mohammed Siraj and Jasprit Bumrah are set to be rested. Gill, who bats at number three for India in Test matches, is an important player in the team’s top order along with Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Yashasvi Jaiswal and is expected to play all 10 Tests this season. In such a situation, the doors of Team India can open for Ishan Kishan, who has been trying to make a comeback in the Indian team for a long time. According to media reports, if Pant does not play the upcoming T20 series, then Kishan’s return is almost certain. Shubman Gill will be rested from T20 series against Bangladesh Hindustan Times quoted a BCCI source on the condition of anonymity as saying, “Yes, Shubman will be rested for the T20 International series against Bangladesh. If you look at the list of matches, three T20 Internationals will be played on October 7 (Gwalior), October 10 (Delhi) and October 13 (Hyderabad). Now the first Test against New Zealand will start from October 16. He further said, “So it is important to give Gill rest because of the gap of just three days.” Gill has played 21 T20 Internationals so far and has one century and three half-centuries to his name. He has scored runs at a strike rate of around 140. He was recently appointed captain for the five-match T20 International series against Zimbabwe in Harare which India won 4-1. Now it will be interesting to see whether Rishabh Pant plays the T20 International against Bangladesh or not as his workload is of paramount importance to the selectors and he is needed in longer formats. If Pant is rested, then Ishan Kishan’s name can once again be considered after being out of international cricket for nine months this year. Ishan Kishan recently scored a century in the Duleep Trophy.

We had a camp in Bangalore. When I reached the hotel, I was told that Dhoni is my roommate. I was told that he is from Ranchi. I had seen Dhoni playing in the Deodhar Trophy earlier as well. Where he had scored a lot of runs. Apart from this, I did not know him much at that time. Then we were roommates in Bangalore for a month. Dhoni was carefree. While playing for India, he played a reverse sweepshot against a Pakistani bowler named Iftikhar Anjum which was beyond my imagination. Because I had never seen Dhoni hit such a shot in the nets. Dhoni did not bat much in the nets. He used to bowl to other batsmen in the nets except Dinesh Karthik. Akash further said, ‘Dhoni’s phone used to ring a lot. But he never picked up the phone. ‘Once I asked Dhoni what time he sleeps. He said that you can sleep whenever you feel like it. Dhoni was a non-vegetarian and I was a vegetarian. But he ate vegetarian food for 1 month for me. He was also very shy at that time.’
