"Having To Miss Out On World Cup…": Shubman Gill's Bittersweet Review Of 2023

It has been a brilliant year for Shubman Gill. The talented Indian cricket team opener showed brilliant form in all three formats of the game and his numbers specifically in ODI cricket were extraordinary. Gill is currently the leading run-scorer this year with 1584 runs in 29 matches at an average of 63.36 with the help of five centuries. However, in a recent interaction, the youngster said that the loss in the Cricket World Cup 2023 final somewhat dampened his mood but was quick to point out that he, along with his teammates, will have a chance to improve situations in the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024.

“I think it’s been a great year for me but having to miss out on the World Cup obviously dampened the mood a bit, but fortunately, we have another World Cup coming up next year so we are all looking forward to it,” Shubman told CNBC-TV 18.

“In the next one year, there is the World Cup coming, a very important Test series coming up in Australia, and I think this year is not over yet, we have the Test series, coming up in South Africa as well. I think the Test series in Australia and the South Africa series are going to be really big ones and those are the matches I am really looking forward to,” he added.

Gill will also have added responsibility in 2024 as he will take over as the Gujarat Titans skipper after the departure of all-rounder Hardik Pandya. Pandya rejoined Mumbai Indians in a sensational trade move and as a result, Gill will be leading the side with Rashid Khan possibly being the vice-captain.

“I am going to be captaining Gujarat Titans, that is a very exciting challenge and that’s gonna be a lot of learning, from that experience hopefully, I can take those learnings and improve myself based on those experiences and learnings, and only that is going to help me in the next year,” he said.

World Cup Winner Kris Srikkanth Expresses Sympathy for Sarfaraz Khan Amid Squad Changes

Sarfaraz Khan made a highly anticipated Test debut earlier this year during India's home series against England, demonstrating his potential by amassing 200 runs across five innings. His performance included three half-centuries, with an average of 50 and a strike rate of 79.36. Despite his promising start, the return of key players like Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, and Rishabh Pant raises questions about his place in the Indian squad.

As India prepares for the upcoming Test series against Bangladesh, which begins on September 19, the inclusion of these first-choice players suggests that Khan may not retain his spot in the playing XI. His continued presence in the squad, however, indicates he will be part of the team, though he might not feature in the opening Test in Chennai. Khan’s involvement in the India B squad for the Duleep Trophy's second-round fixtures, ending just days before the series starts, further underscores the likelihood of his exclusion from the first Test.

Kris Srikkanth, a former India opener and member of the 1983 World Cup-winning team, has expressed his sympathy for Sarfaraz Khan's situation. On his YouTube channel, Srikkanth discussed how even a standout performance may not guarantee a permanent place in the squad, citing the example of Dhruv Jurel, who is expected to be sidelined with the return of Rishabh Pant.

“I feel bad for Sarfaraz Khan; even if you play well, sometimes a big player returns from injury and takes your spot—just look at how Rishabh Pant's return means Dhruv Jurel might have to sit out,” Srikkanth said. He emphasized the tough decisions faced by the team management, especially with high-profile players like KL Rahul also returning to the squad.

Srikkanth highlighted KL Rahul’s crucial role, noting his impressive performances in challenging conditions. “KL Rahul has proven himself in difficult conditions—be it in South Africa or Australia. For the upcoming series, including the tour to Australia, Rahul is an invaluable asset,” he explained.

Anirudh Srikkanth, Kris’s son, echoed these sentiments, acknowledging Rahul’s past achievements and their importance for the team’s future performances. “KL Rahul’s form leading up to the Australia tour will be crucial. It’s shaping up to be one of the greatest Test series of our time,” he added.

As the Indian squad gears up for the Bangladesh series, the balancing act between emerging talents like Sarfaraz Khan and established stars underscores the ever-evolving nature of international cricket.

1,000 Times More Politics": KL Rahul's Honest Take to Justin Langer on India Coaching Role

Former Australian cricketer Justin Langer was among the top contenders for the position of India’s next head coach. With Rahul Dravid’s contract set to expire after the upcoming T20 World Cup, the BCCI was reportedly exploring multiple options for his replacement. However, Langer has decided to withdraw from consideration, citing the demanding nature of the role. During his tenure with Lucknow Super Giants in IPL 2024, Langer discussed the position with KL Rahul, who highlighted the immense ‘politics and pressure’ associated with being the head coach of the Indian cricket team, describing it as almost ‘a thousand times’ more intense than coaching an IPL team.

“I understand that it’s an all-encompassing role, and having experienced it for four years with the Australian team, it’s exhausting,” Langer shared on BBC Stumped.

“I spoke with KL Rahul, and he mentioned, ‘If you think there’s pressure and politics in an IPL team, multiply that by a thousand, and that’s what coaching India is like.’ That was valuable advice.”

Similarly, Langer’s former teammate Ricky Ponting also indicated his reluctance to pursue the position.

“I’ve seen numerous reports about it,” Ponting stated in an ICC Review interview. “Usually, these things surface on social media before you even hear about them. There were a few private conversations during the IPL to gauge my interest in the role.”

“I would love to be a senior coach of a national team, but considering my current commitments and desire for personal time, it’s not feasible. Everyone knows that if you take on the job with the Indian team, you cannot be involved with an IPL team, which would also eliminate that aspect,” he explained.

“Additionally, being a national head coach is a ten- or eleven-month-a-year job. Although I would like to do it, it doesn’t align with my current lifestyle and other pursuits,” Ponting concluded.

R Ashwin's Emotional Tribute on 100th Test: A Journey Beyond Cricket

Ravichandran Ashwin, the stalwart of Indian cricket, celebrated a significant milestone as he received his special 100th Test cap from India’s head coach, Rahul Dravid, during the fifth and final Test against England. In an emotional and pride-filled gratitude speech, Ashwin’s words resonated with the essence of Test cricket, reflecting on the profound life lessons the format imparts.

“Test cricket is the closest synergy that you can find to life,” expressed Ashwin, his voice tinged with emotion. While acknowledging the popularity of T20 leagues like the IPL and the aspirations of young cricketers, he emphasized the unique values that Test cricket instills. “It will teach you to adapt, dealing with pressures,” he added, underscoring the importance of the longest format of the game.

Ashwin, who made his Test debut in 2011, took a moment to pay tribute to his father, Ravichandran, who played a pivotal role in shaping his cricketing journey. Recalling his early days, Ashwin vividly remembered his father’s dedication, taking him to coaching camps on a bike, demonstrating a government employee’s unwavering support for his son’s dreams.

Expressing deep gratitude, Ashwin acknowledged the emotional significance of the moment, particularly for his father, who couldn’t be present. He credited his family, including his mother and grandfather, for playing crucial roles in his cricketing journey.

Acknowledging the unwavering support from his wife, Preeti, Ashwin reflected on her significant role during challenging periods. “My wife didn’t know what she was getting into. She’s gotten into it, and she’s standing next to me today. I have got two lovely kids who are also enjoying my journey over the last few years,” he shared, highlighting the importance of family support.

After handing Ashwin the coveted cap, Rahul Dravid expressed his admiration for the Tamil Nadu cricketer. Dravid emphasized that Ashwin’s journey began from the streets of Chennai and has been both long and eventful. He acknowledged the crucial role played by Ashwin’s family and congratulated them on this well-deserved milestone.

The ceremony was marked by applause from Ashwin’s teammates, who honored him with a guard of honor as he stepped onto the field, celebrating not just a cricketing achievement but a journey beyond the boundaries of the sport.

AB de Villiers Comments on Rohit Sharma's Super Over Controversy Against Afghanistan

India’s 3–0 clean sweep against Afghanistan in the recent T20I series stirred up some controversy, particularly surrounding the second super over in the third T20I. Rohit Sharma, returning to T20Is after 14 months along with Virat Kohli, played a pivotal role in India’s victory. However, the second super over raised eyebrows as Rohit returned to bat, sparking confusion about his status after the first super over.

In the initial super over, Rohit scored 14 runs before heading back to the dugout. According to the guidelines, a player declared out in the first super over cannot bat again in the second. Despite this, Rohit took the crease again, leading to speculations whether he was retired hurt or retired out.

AB de Villiers, the legendary South African batter, weighed in on the incident on his YouTube channel. De Villiers asserted that a player cannot bat again if declared out in the first super over, suggesting that it could be a fault in the broadcast or a scoring mistake.

“Double Super Over, unbelievable (smiles). You can’t bat again if you are declared out in the first super over. I think maybe they will claim that he was retired hurt due to an injury, and maybe it was a scoring mistake to show him out,” De Villiers remarked.

Shifting his focus, De Villiers praised Indian batter Rinku Singh, hailing him as a fantastic player and a consistent match-winner. He emphasized the importance of consistency in players like Singh to secure victories for the team.

“Rinku is a fantastic player, a match-winner, and it is good to see him become consistent as well. You need to be a consistent player who is always trying to win games for your team.”

Rinku Singh’s remarkable T20I performance, amassing 356 runs across 15 games and 11 innings at an average of 89.00 and a strike rate exceeding 176, has positioned him as a notable finisher for Team India.
