IND vs SL: Morne Morkel will not go on Sri Lanka tour with Team India, this former player will be the interim bowling coach
India’s Sri Lanka tour will start from 27 July Team India (Image Credit- Twitter X) The Indian cricket team is going to tour Sri Lanka very soon. Team India will be seen playing a three-match T20 and a three-match ODI series on this tour. India’s tour will begin with the T20 series starting from July 27. However, before the start of this tour of India, a big news has come out for the Men in Blue. According to media reports of Cricbuzz, Morne Morkel will not be able to go with Team India on this tour. So for this, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has made a temporary arrangement and appointed Sairaj Bahutule, associated with the National Cricket Academy (NCA), as the interim coach of the team for this tour. It is worth noting that the formalities for Morkel to become the new bowler of the Indian cricket team are almost complete, but his appointment has not been done yet. Due to this, he will not be able to go on the Sri Lanka tour with Team India. However, there is every possibility of him joining the Indian cricket team before the two-match Test series against Bangladesh in September. So, if we tell you the reason for Morkel not being able to join the team at this time, then he will not be able to join the Indian cricket team for the Sri Lanka tour due to personal reasons. Bahutule will be part of the coaching staff led by Gautam Gambhir, and it is likely that either Abhishek Nair or Ryan ten Doeschate will be seen as assistant coaches on the tour.

Akash Chopra is shocked by Kuldeep Yadav not being selected in the T20 series against Sri Lanka, former player gave a big statement
Kuldeep Yadav’s performance has always been very good in international cricket. Kuldeep Yadav (Pic Source X) Former player Aakash Chopra is quite surprised to see why Kuldeep Yadav has not been included in the Indian team for the upcoming T20 series against Sri Lanka. Let us tell you, Kuldeep Yadav’s performance has always been very good in international cricket. He has bowled very well in T20 cricket as well and has won the hearts of many fans. India now has to tour Sri Lanka which is starting from 27th July. The Indian team will first play a three-match T20 series against Sri Lanka and then a three-match ODI series. India has announced its team for both these series. Aakash Chopra has also raised the question as to why Rituraj Gaikwad and Yuzvendra Chahal have not been included in the Indian team for the entire tour. Aakash Chopra shared a video on his official YouTube channel in which he said, ‘Kuldeep Yadav’s name is not in T20 cricket. This is really surprising because this player has recently won the World Cup and his name is not in the T20 team. Has something like this happened that we do not know about? He has been included in the ODI team but I have no idea why the brilliant spinner is not being played in T20.’ Aakash Chopra also gave his opinion on Rituraj Gaikwad and Yuzvendra Chahal Aakash Chopra further said, ‘Yuzvendra Chahal’s name also comes to mind. He was also a part of the World Cup and now he is nowhere. Ravindra Jadeja is also not in the ODI team. What is happening? He has retired from the T20 team but an experienced all-rounder is available for ODIs. If Jadeja is available and still not playing, then I think the Indian team is going in some other direction. Rituraj Gaikwad has also been dropped from both formats. What has Rituraj done that his name has not come up? 6 months ago he was a strong contender to become the captain of the Indian team in which Shubman Gill was not playing but now Gill has become the vice-captain and Rituraj is not even a part of the team. 5 Australian players who scored half-century in their debut IPL match IPL 2024: These 11 foreign players took crores of rupees but flopped IPL 2024: 5 players who hit the most sixes in the 19th and 20th overs of IPL 5 fastest bowlers in IPL history Who are the head coaches of all 10 teams in IPL 2024?

What does BCCI ignoring Ishan Kishan and Sanju Samson for the Sri Lanka tour mean?
Samson has not been selected in the ODI team for the Sri Lanka tour Ishan Kishan and Sanju Samson The BCCI announced the Indian team for the limited overs series against Sri Lanka on Thursday. Suryakumar Yadav was appointed the new captain of the T20I team, while Rohit Sharma will captain the ODI series. A three-match T20 series and a three-match ODI series will be played on this tour. Some young players were included in the squad, but there are some players who were not included. Ishan Kishan’s name is included in this. All doors closed for Ishan Kishan? Before the break in December last year, Ishan was a part of Team India in all formats. Later, BCCI ordered the players playing international cricket to play domestic cricket, but Ishan ignored it and remained on a break. After this, Ishan was out of BCCI’s central contract. After being ruled out of the Zimbabwe tour, Ishan Kishan has not been selected for the Sri Lanka tour as well. Therefore, discussions have started whether all doors have been closed for the left-handed batsman? Meanwhile, according to media reports, the BCCI will monitor the availability and participation of players in the upcoming domestic cricket season 2024-25. This will leave the door open for Ishan’s return. What went wrong with Sanju Samson? Sanju Samson scored a century the last time India played an ODI in December 2023 and he also scored a brilliant half-century in the last T20I match against Zimbabwe, yet Samson has not been selected in the ODI squad for the Sri Lanka tour, while he has been selected for the 20-over format. KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant have returned as wicketkeepers for the Sri Lanka ODI series. At the same time, India is focusing on including more all-rounders in the line-up. Due to this, Samson did not get a chance. And it is likely that he will not be part of the plans for the Champions Trophy.

India are all set to travel to Sri Lanka and play three T20Is followed by three ODIs. It was initially rumoured that the seniors including Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma would miss the ODI series. However, through some media reports it has come to light that Rohit Sharma can make himself available for the ODI series and now it seems that Kohli can also be seen playing in the ODI series. Virat Kohli can be seen playing in the ODI series According to a report in The Indian Express, Virat Kohli has made himself available to play the T20 series and has confirmed the same to the Board of Control for Cricket in India. This was after reports that Gautam Gambhir had asked the seniors to make themselves available for the series. Senior players like Hardik Pandya and Suryakumar Yadav are going to return for the Sri Lanka tour. In such a situation, the biggest question is going to be about the new captain of the Indian T20 team. BCCI and new head coach Gambhir are looking for a captain till the next T20 World Cup 2026. According to the report, Suryakumar Yadav can captain the T20 series against Sri Lanka. Let us tell you that the Indian team will start the Sri Lanka tour on 27th July.

Rohit Sharma may play ODI series against Sri Lanka, uncertainty remains over Virat and Bumrah! Big report revealed
Rohit Sharma (Photo Source: X/Twitter) A new era is about to begin in Indian cricket as Gautam Gambhir will soon begin his first assignment as the team’s new head coach. The Men in Blue will tour Sri Lanka to take part in three T20Is followed by three ODIs is all set to do so. The ODI series will be extremely important for India as it will mark the start of their preparations for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 to be held in Pakistan in February. This is India’s last ODI series before the tournament. Meanwhile, there were reports that Rohit Sharma would be rested from this series after winning the T20 World Cup 2024. But now such reports are coming out that Rohit Sharma can be seen captaining in the ODI series. Team India’s new head coach Gautam Gambhir has made it clear that every player will have to be available for all three formats. It has also been clearly stated in the report that the board has not put any pressure on these players to play. However, there have been some indications from Rohit Sharma that he may make himself available for the three-match ODI series against Sri Lanka in August. Considering that Team India has very few ODI matches to prepare before the Champions Trophy to be held in February-March 2025. Rohit Sharma can play in the ODI series against Sri Lanka According to the Cricbuzz report, this is the reason why Rohit Sharma can be seen in these three ODIs. He is currently enjoying his holidays in the US. It is expected that he will inform the BCCI about his availability soon, possibly he will send his reply to the board before the online meeting on Wednesday. If Rohit Sharma decides to play in the ODI series, he will undoubtedly lead the team. However, players like Jasprit Bumrah and Virat Kohli have been rested for the Sri Lanka series and their chances of joining the team are low. If Rohit Sharma does not play in this series, then KL Rahul can captain the ODI series. Apart from this, Shreyas Iyer can also return to the ODI team.
