IND vs ENG: 3 big reasons due to which Washington Sundar should get a chance to play in the second test match against England
The second test match between India and England will be played from February 2. Washington Sundar (photo source: X/Twitter) Currently, a five-match Test series is going on between India and England. So after winning by 28 runs in the first Test match held in Hyderabad, the enthusiasm of the visiting England is at its peak. On the other hand, now the second match of this Test series will be played in Visakhapatnam from Friday, February 2. By winning this match, the Indian team will be eyeing a comeback in the Test series. However, it is not going to be so easy for India. Because all-rounders Ravindra Jadeja and KL Rahul will not be able to participate in this match due to injuries. In such a situation, the Indian team management may face a problem as to which player should be selected for the playing eleven in this match. However, BCCI has added Saurabh Kumar and Washington Sundar to the team as replacements for both the players. But it will be worth seeing which player the management gives a chance in the second test match against England tomorrow. But today we are going to tell you about three big reasons why all-rounder Washington Sundar should play in this match. 1. The team will get an extra off-spinner Washington Sundar. (Photo Source: Getty Images) If the Indian team management gives Sundar a chance in the second Test match against England to be held in Vizag, then an extra spinner is going to be seen playing in the team. If Sundar is successful in playing the second game, he will be seen helping the experienced Ravi Ashwin in the team, who himself is an off-spinner and had impressed with his bowling in the first Test match. Apart from this, there are three left-handed batsmen in England’s top batting, so if this point is considered then the management can give a chance to Washington Sundar in the playing eleven. Also, there is a lot of variation in Sundar’s bowling, so left-handed players will not have much opportunity to bowl reverse sweep.

Lauren Cheatle out of WPL 2024 due to skin cancer
Lauren Cheatle is fighting skin cancer and due to this she will have to stay away from cricket for the time being. Lauren Cheatle (Pic Source-Twitter) Australia’s brilliant female cricketer Lauren Cheatle has been ruled out of the remaining domestic season and the upcoming Women’s Premier League. Let us tell you, Lauren Cheatle is fighting skin cancer and due to this she will have to stay away from cricket for the time being. Lauren Cheatle was included in their squad by Gujarat Giants in the upcoming edition of the Women’s Premier League. His performance has been tremendous in Australian domestic cricket. In the last edition of the Women’s Big Bash League, this bowler had bowled brilliantly for Sydney Sixers. Lauren Cheatle will not be seen playing in the remaining matches of the Women’s National Cricket League. He bowled very well for New South Wales in the WNCL and took 11 wickets. Cheatle has undergone treatment to recover from skin cancer on her neck, which has ruled her out of the remainder of the domestic season and the upcoming edition of the Women’s Premier League (WPL 2024). This is not the first time that this fast bowler has undergone surgery. Earlier in 2021, she had undergone a similar operation on her leg. New South Wales issued a statement saying, ‘Chittle aims to return to training with NSW following the players’ scheduled off-season break.’ Cheatle would like to make a comeback as soon as possible Cheatle, who made her ODI and T20 International debut for Australia in 2017, has since battled shoulder injuries three times. The left-arm fast bowler has played only four ODIs and seven T20 Internationals so far in his short career. The surgery means she will also miss the upcoming one-off Test between Australia and South Africa women. He made his Test debut on the India tour only last year. The young fast bowler had said in November, ‘My body has suffered a lot and even at this time I am fighting a lot of things. But I am very excited for the series against India. The fourth surgery on my shoulder was very difficult and now it is also scarred by cancer. I never expected that I would face all these difficulties. This is a very dangerous phase of my career and I have full hope that this too will pass very soon. Australia Cricket Awards 2024: Know which player won which award?

Jack Crowley talks openly about the strategy of sweep and reverse sweep against Indian spinners.
Jack Crawley said, sweep and reverse sweep are good options when the ball is spinning. India v England (Image Source : Twitter) The England team defeated India by 28 runs in the first match of the five-Test series to take a 1-0 lead in the series. In the Hyderabad Test, the English batsmen faced the Indian spinners bravely, especially Ollie Pope, who played a brilliant century. Meanwhile, opening batsman Zak Crawley says that the use of sweep and reverse sweep by the English batsmen against Indian spinners is a perfect way to throw out the spin plan. Zak Crawley scored 20 and 31 runs in both the innings respectively. Despite not playing big innings, Crawley played an important role in giving England a great start. Speaking at a press conference ahead of the second Test, Crawley elaborated on the strategy of playing a sweep or reverse sweep. It takes the spin out of the plan – Jack Crowley He said, I think sweep and reverse sweep are good options when the ball is spinning. This takes spin out of the plan. I think reverse sweep is common for us because the ground is less there. It seems they always have two men on the leg side. If they had two men on the other side, we might have played a sweep. The reverse sweep probably comes as naturally to us as the common sweep. Speaking on baseball, he said, it (baseball) comes naturally because many teams are playing more aggressively. When I first came to England the mentality was to take my time and play a long innings. I didn’t think it would come naturally to me and some other people. A lot of us play a little better under that. Zak Crawley feels that the Indian team is very strong in its home conditions despite the absence of many key players in the upcoming second Test. Let us tell you that Virat Kohli is already out of two Tests, while KL Rahul and Ravindra Jadeja suffered injuries, due to which they have been ruled out of the second Test.
