Ravindra Jadeja, the Indian cricketer, is good at hitting, bowling and fielding. He impresses the fans often. In the third Test against England at Lord’s in London, India needed 193 runs to win. The top order batsmen struggled and then Jadeja batted well till the end. Though he batted well, India lost by 22 runs. Still Jadeja’s determination pleased many. Jadeja was in news for another reason in April 2014: a late night chat with Sarah Taylor, the former England women’s wicketkeeper, went public. During the T20 World Cup in April 2014, a private conversation between Jadeja and Taylor was…

The Lord’s Test will be remembered as a classic at the ground. India was chasing 194 but England’s bowlers made it tough. The top order collapsed and only Ravindra Jadeja stood strong. England won by 22 runs and took a 2-1 lead in the series. But many praised Jadeja for his unbeaten 61 off 181 balls. Some cricket experts have questioned Jadeja’s batting approach. Greg Chappell, ex-India head coach, wrote in his ESPN Cricinfo column that Jadeja should have taken chances instead of just defending.“The Lord’s Test also showed how Jadeja handled things late in the match. With the tailenders,…

Greg Chappell, the old India coach, thinks the next Test at Old Trafford in Manchester will be a big test for Shubman Gill. Gill needs to stay calm so his team can stay in the series. Gill has been playing with a lot of energy in this series. He even acted like Virat Kohli when he got a century at Edgbaston in 2018. He has been batting well, got a hundred at Headingley and then a record breaking century and a double century in the second Test at Birmingham. If India loses at Old Trafford, they won’t have won a…

With Asia Cup 2025 just a few weeks away, it’s uncertain. The Asian Cricket Council (ACC) has a meeting on July 24 in Dhaka, Bangladesh but India won’t be attending. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) along with some other cricket boards is thinking of skipping the meeting. Sources say BCCI told ACC and Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chairman Mohsin Naqvi that India won’t attend if it’s in Dhaka. They have made this decision because of the strained political situation between India and Bangladesh. India isn’t the only one. Sri Lanka, Oman and Afghanistan have also refused…

BCCI to reject Sri Lanka’s offer to host a limited-overs series next month? SLC had offered to fill the void left by the postponed India tour to Bangladesh (3 ODIs and 3 T20Is in August). SLC had proposed a similar series but BCCI has reportedly turned it down. Sources say BCCI won’t accept the series. This means Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli’s return to ODI cricket will be pushed to the Australia series in October. According to a SportsTak report, a source close to the situation said the series is not happening, “We will decide but it looks unlikely.” The…

Jatin Paranjape, a former Indian cricketer and selector, says don’t count out this young Indian team just yet after going down 1-2 in the Tendulkar-Anderson Trophy series. They came back strong in the second game at Edgbaston and tied the 5-match series 1-1. Now every game is a must-win for India. Paranjpe thinks this team is resilient. He told PTI that the team has moved beyond Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma and the younger players will step up in Manchester. I think we were unlucky not to be 3-0 up, he said, referring to the close loss at Lord’s. Rishabh…

SLC is looking to host a white ball series with India in early August, taking advantage of a rare window in both teams’ schedules. They will finalize things this week at the ICC meetings in Singapore. This comes after the BCB and BCCI agreed to move their white ball series (3 ODIs and 3 T20Is) from August 2025 to September 2026 due to security issues in a neighboring country. India’s tour of Bangladesh was supposed to start on August 17 after their 5 Test series against England which ends on August 4. A senior SLC official told www.telecomasia.net, We’ve heard…

Ajinkya Rahane, the Indian middle-order batsman, gave some advice to Shubman Gill on captaincy. He also said that left-arm pacer Arshdeep Singh and Kuldeep Yadav should play in the fourth Test against England in Manchester which starts from July 23. Rahane was talking on his YouTube channel when he said that if Jasprit Bumrah is not able to play in Manchester, Arshdeep should play. He thinks India’s highest T20I wicket-taker’s left-arm angle would be very helpful. If Bumrah can’t play, I think Arshdeep should play since you need a left-arm seamer in England who can swing the ball both ways.…
