Let us tell you that the five-match Test series between Team India and Australia is starting from November 22. The Board of Control for Cricket in India has recently announced Team India for the upcoming 5 match test series. In the list of experienced batsmen, only the names of Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and KL Rahul are there. Many people were quite surprised to see that experienced player Cheteshwar Pujara has not been included in Team India in the upcoming 5-match Test series. Cheteshwar Pujara’s performance in international cricket has always been excellent and even now the great batsman is in his best form. Recently, Cheteshwar Pujara scored his 9th double century in an important Ranji Trophy match against Chhattisgarh. MSK Prasad said, ‘Cheteshwar Pujara recently scored a double century in Ranji Trophy. He also has experience and the strength that Team India needs in Australia would also be provided by Pujara. I think that if he had to select Nitish Reddy, he would have played the young player in at least one match for India A. Cheteshwar Pujara will not be seen playing in Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024 Let us tell you that Cheteshwar Pujara’s record in Australia has been tremendous. He has scored 993 runs in 11 matches at an average above 47, which includes three centuries and five half-centuries. On the last day of the fourth Test match of the 2020-21 series, Cheteshwar Pujara played a valuable inning of 56 runs at the Gabba in Brisbane, due to which even the Australian bowlers got quite worried. Team India had won this test series by 2-1. Cheteshwar Pujara failed to show a strong performance in the final of the World Test Championship 2023 and after that he was never included in Team India.

“Out of T20 mentality…”, Sanjay Manjrekar angry at this decision taken for Rohit Sharma in Pune Test.
I think he (Rohit Sharma) should proceed based on the overall quality and ability of the players – Sanjay Manjrekar Rohit Sharma and Sanjay Manjrekar (Photo Source: Team India suffered a humiliating defeat by 113 runs in the second match of the three-match Test series against New Zealand. After this match, New Zealand has won the series by taking a 2-0 lead. India has lost the Test series at home after 12 years. The team is facing a lot of criticism on social media. Some decisions taken by captain Rohit Sharma during the series are under question, including the decision to bat first in overcast conditions in Bengaluru. In the first innings of the first Test, Team India was all out for 46, which is the team’s lowest score in Test matches in Asia. Another decision that is being examined is to prepare a spin-friendly track in the second Test as it became a problem for India. Meanwhile, the cricket commentator talked about another decision of Team India, which did not benefit the team at all. Things like this should not happen – Sanjay Manjrekar Sanjay Manjarkar, while talking about the changes made in the batting order of Team India, has warned captain Rohit Sharma. In the fourth of the second Test, India sent Washington Sundar before Sarfaraz Khan after the fall of Rishabh Pant and retained the left-right combination. Manjrekar termed Rohit Sharma’s decision as disheartening and said that the Indian captain should come out of the T20 mindset. Sanjay Manjrekar while speaking on ESPNCricinfo said, The decision to make Sarfaraz Khan bat lower down the order and send Washington Sundar above him because he is a left-handed batsman, things like this should not happen. This is very strange. This is something that Rohit Sharma needs to be careful about. They should take care of T20 mindset. Left and right hand combinational do not need to match. I think they should move forward based on the overall quality and ability of the players. In the second innings of the second test, both Sarfaraz Khan (9) and Washington Sundar (21) could not play big innings. And Team India was all out at 245 while chasing the target of 359 runs.
Sachin Tendulkar has become a fan of the performance of New Zealand team, gave many best wishes to all the players on social media.

IND vs NZ: Jasprit Bumrah should be rested in Mumbai Test against New Zealand: Dinesh Karthik
The third Test between Team India and New Zealand is starting from November 1 at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. Jasprit bumrah (Image Credit- Twitter X) Former player Dinesh Karthik believes that Team India should rest Jasprit Bumrah in the third Test match against New Zealand. Let us tell you that the third Test between Team India and New Zealand is starting from November 1 at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. So far, the New Zealand team is ahead 2-0 in the three-match Test series. The first Test between these two teams was played in Bengaluru in which New Zealand won. Not only this, even in the second test match played in Pune, Team India failed to show good performance. Talking about Jasprit Bumrah, he participated in both these test matches against New Zealand. Not only this, Jasprit Bumrah was also seen performing brilliantly in the two-match Test series played against Bangladesh. Jasprit Bumrah will have to play an important role in his team’s victory by performing well in the third Test match against New Zealand. However, according to Dinesh Karthik, he should be rested in the third Test because Bumrah’s role will be more important in the five-match Test series against Australia. The five-match Test series between Australia and India is starting from November 22. Dinesh Karthik told Cricbuzz, ‘There is no doubt that Jasprit Bumrah needs rest. Mohammad Siraj should be included in the team in his place. Apart from this, there should be no other changes according to me. If a player is injured then it is a different matter. I am not able to understand at all what will be the playing XI of Team India in the third test?: Dinesh Karthik The former player further said, ‘The defeat is very heavy in my mind. I am not able to think at all what will be the playing XI of Team India in the third test? This is a very short notice but I would like to say that Bumrah should be rested and Siraj should be included back in the team. If Team India wants to secure its place in the final of the World Test Championship, then it is very important for them to win the third Test against New Zealand. Not only this, Team India will also have to win the match by a long margin in the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia.
