The first match between the two teams is to be played in Perth from 22 November. Meanwhile, Australian rain spoiled the mood of Team India. It rained in Perth on Tuesday (19 November), due to which the team had to cancel the practice session. But this rain did not make any difference to King Kohli. He continued batting in the nets despite the rain. Due to heavy rain, Virat Kohli had to leave the nets in the end The practice session on Tuesday (November 19) was just a routine training day, but Virat Kohli, who is struggling with poor form, wanted to take full advantage of it. He batted diligently despite the rain, even though the entire team had left the field. However, after some time it started raining heavily, after which Virat also had to leave the nets. Journalist Bharat Sundaresan tweeted on his social media handle and wrote, This seems to be the top-6, based on how they played in the nets before practice was halted due to rain. Virat Kohli did not want to stop batting, the rain had increased in intensity and he had no option but to run away with the rest of the team. Looks even more like this is the top 6 based on how they went in the nets before rain halted practice. Virat Kohli wasn’t keen to stop batting even as the rain got heavier before he had no option but to run off with the rest of the team #AusvInd — Bharat Sundaresan (@beastieboy07) November 19, 2024 Virat Kohli did not see a century in both the last Test series against Bangladesh and New Zealand. Since 2020, he has scored runs at an average of only 32 in Tests and has scored only two centuries in the last 60 Test innings. His form declined further in 2024, averaging 22.72 in 6 matches and scoring only one half-century in the last 10 innings. India’s top-order will be like this in Perth Test In the absence of Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul can be seen opening with Yashasvi Jaiswal. Rahul was injured during the practice session in Perth, but right now he looks in good form and is practicing batting. Devdutt Padikkal can be seen at number-3 in place of injured Shubman Gill. Whereas Virat Kohli will bat at number-4.

‘Did not leave Delhi Capitals for money…’, Rishabh Pant’s post before IPL auction created an uproar on social media

Rishabh Pant will enter the mega auction before IPL 2025. Rishabh Pant (Image Credit- Instagram) India’s star wicketkeeper batsman, Rishabh Pant has broken his silence on not being retained by Delhi Capitals. He has made it clear in a tweet that he did not leave Delhi Capitals for money. Pant responded to a video by Star Sports, in which Sunil Gavaskar was explaining the reason behind Delhi not retaining their captain ahead of the IPL 2025 mega auction. In the video, Sunil Gavaskar said that, I believe that there may be a disagreement between Delhi Capitals and Rishabh Pant regarding the retention fee of the wicketkeeper-batsman. The former batsman also said during this time that Capitals may try to buy Pant back in the mega auction to be held on 24 and 25 November. This one tweet by Rishabh Pant created an uproar on social media After this, Rishabh Pant reacted to this video and said that he did not leave the Delhi Capitals team for money. Pant has given his reply on a video of Gavaskar. Pant, who was the star batsman of Delhi Capitals, wrote in this post – I can definitely say that my retention was not about money. My retention wasn’t about the money for sure that I can say 🤍 — Rishabh Pant (@RishabhPant17) November 19, 2024 Gavaskar told Star Sports- I think Delhi Capitals would like Rishabh Pant back in their team. Sometimes, when a player has to be retained, there are negotiations between the franchises and the players regarding the expected fees. As some of the players who have been retained by their franchises have demanded a higher No. 1 retention fee. So obviously I think there might be some disagreement there, but I think Delhi would want Rishabh Pant back. Talking about IPL retention, Delhi Capitals retained four players before the IPL 2025 auction in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. They retained Axar Patel for Rs 16.5 crore, Kuldeep Yadav for Rs 13.5 crore, South African star all-rounder Tristan Stubbs for Rs 10 crore and uncapped wicketkeeper Abhishek Porel for Rs 4 crore.

“How easily India leave Kuldeep Yadav out” : Sanjay Manjrekar

Former Indian batsman Sanjay Manjrekar is surprised by Rohit Sharma’s decision to leave out spinner Kuldeep Yadav for the first Test against Bangladesh at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Sanjay Manjrekar and Kuldeep Yadav. (Image Source: Twitter/Getty Images) The first match of the 2-match Test series between India and Bangladesh has started on September 19. Former Indian batsman Sanjay Manjrekar is surprised by Rohit Sharma’s decision to leave out spinner Kuldeep Yadav for the first Test against Bangladesh at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Let us tell you that the Indian team has opted for a combination of three fast bowlers and two spinners for the first Test match in which Kuldeep is not there. The pitch and conditions usually demand three spinners. Always two experienced spinners – Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja retain their place, while either Kuldeep Yadav or Axar Patel plays as the third spinner. However, this time Team India did not prefer any secondary spinner as right-arm fast bowler Akash Deep has found a place in the team. Sanjay Manjrekar expressed his displeasure “It’s amazing how easily India leave Kuldeep Yadav out,” wrote Sanjay Manjrekar. Find it amazing how easily India drops a Kuldeep Yadav.#INDvBAN — Sanjay Manjrekar (@sanjaymanjrekar) September 19, 2024 Kuldeep Yadav has been in and out of the Test team since his debut in 2017. After being dropped from the playing XI despite taking eight wickets in the series opener against Bangladesh in 2022, the spinner returned to the team for the home series against England in early 2024. He played four consecutive matches and took 19 wickets in the series and also gave some useful performances in the lower order, due to which he can be considered a favorite over Axar Patel in terms of selection. “If Bangladesh bowls good spin, it will be a little difficult for India to beat them” – Sanjay Manjrekar “In Indian conditions you can’t make a green pitch that is seam friendly. Indian batting has also had a bit of trouble on turning pitches and with three spinners, if Bangladesh bowl well India might find it a bit difficult to beat them,” Manjrekar told ESPNcricinfo ahead of the first Test.
