Indian team won the four-match series 3-1 Varun Chakravarthy (Photo Source: The South African T20I series has been great for Indian spinner Varun Chakraborty. He has been the highest wicket-taker in the four-match T20 series. And in the post match presentation after the match, he expressed his opinion about the challenges and his contribution during the series. He admitted that the pitch in the last two matches was not ideal for spinners. However, Chakraborty also said that India’s move to go with three spinners in the series was wonderful and it has worked. Apart from this, he also talked about his partnership with leg spinner Ravi Bishnoi. Varun Chakraborty said that the last two matches have been challenging due to small boundaries. Even if a few sixes are hit, one wrong shot can cost us a wicket. We went into the series with three spinners and it worked for us. He said that Bishnoi and I formed a partnership and it worked. The best approach was to stay away from the arc and I bowled some short balls, which really worked for me as well. Samson-Tilak’s record breaking innings Talking about the fourth T20 match, the Indian team won the toss and decided to bat first and thanks to the record breaking innings of Sanju Samson and Tilak Verma, it made a huge score of 283 runs. Samson scored unbeaten 109 runs in 56 balls, while Tilak Verma scored unbeaten 120 runs in just 47 balls. In response, South Africa had a very bad start and the team was all out after scoring 148 runs in 18.2 overs. In this way, the Indian team won this match by 135 runs. With this, the visiting team won the four-match series 3-1.

On behalf of Team India, Washington Sundar and Ravindra Jadeja completely destroyed New Zealand’s batting lineup with lethal bowling.

Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli flopped once again The hosts have lost four wickets for 86 runs in their first innings.

Mohammad Siraj was out without opening the account on the first ball while Virat Kohli was run out after scoring four runs. Till the end of the first day’s play, brilliant batsman Shubman Gill is batting on 31* runs while Rishabh Pant is playing on 1* runs. Team India is still behind by 149 runs.

Rahul Dravid has worked with many Indian captains as a coach, now he has openly told the inside story

Rahul Dravid shares his experience of working with several Indian captains as a coach. Rahul Dravid (Photo Source: Getty Images) The Indian team won the T20 World Cup 2024 for the second time by defeating South Africa by 7 runs in the final. At the same time, the drought of ICC trophy ended after 11 years. After this, Rahul Dravid’s tenure as the coach of Team India ended. Rahul Dravid took over as the head coach of Team India at the end of 2021 and was with the team till the T20 World Cup 2024. Over the years, the 51-year-old has seen a lot of success but also some heartache, including losses to England in the T20 World Cup 2022 and to Australia in the finals of the World Test Championship 2023 and the ODI World Cup 2023. How was Rahul Dravid’s experience of working with many captains Rahul Dravid’s tenure as head coach was for two years. His tenure was ending after the ODI World Cup 2023, but as the T20 World Cup 2024 approached, the BCCI extended his tenure. Dravid could have re-applied for the coaching position if he wanted, but he did not want to re-apply due to family commitments. Now Rahul Dravid has given a statement in which he has shared his experience of working with many captains during his tenure. “We really had to manage the workload of the players through all three different formats. Some players were injured, and because of that I had to work with 5-6 captains in 8-10 months. It was definitely something I had not imagined. I am actually someone who likes continuity. I don’t like chopping and changing too much. Because I believe that creates a lot of instability and doesn’t create a very good environment.” I feel I am part of a team whose responsibility is to create the right professional, safe, protected environment where there is really no fear of failure but enough challenges to push people. That has always been my endeavour.

We always knew that they would work hard in the powerplay to chase the target in 12.1 overs. So we knew we were in the game, the plan was simple – to execute the plan and we got crucial wickets in the powerplay. These are matches you never know what can happen, after a boundary, you think the match is gone, but a wicket brings you back in the game.” He further said, “So there is very little scope for error in these matches. Such wickets are not high scoring so you always remain in the game. We have worked hard for this and we are in the semi-finals, we are very happy.”
