KL Rahul back! No longer winning anything

I think in this squad, most happiest person is Mohammed Siraj...

Feeling bad for Abhishek Sharma and Rutu, proper 1 & 3 for t20's, had good series against Zimbabwe.

An insight into Gambhir's thought process as coach! Riyan Parag seems to be a huge beneficiary of this new regime. Good for him and I hope they are looking at him as a "batting allrounder" rather than just a batsman.

Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson must feel hard done by (another guy too, but I will keep him out considering the franchise I support in IPL). Sanju deserves a run in ODI's, especially when he scored a century in his last ODI.m

The bowling is really questionable. Siraj and Khaleel together??? KLR, Pant should count themselves as lucky to even have been considered in the squad.

The good thing out of this being that KLR is not hyped up as a captaincy option. I do feel there will be a bit of movement in the leadership group, with the vice-captains being rotated instead of the main captain. SKY is here to stay until the 2026 WC. As for the deputy, it might get changed until they find a stable person to take over. I expect Jasprit Bumrah as the front runner across formats, once he is back.

The Samson angle- I get it, he deserves a chance and a longer run. Pant isn't an option anymore as he is very inconsistent in his performances (bar Test matches). For ODIs and T20s, I would be happy if the likes of Jurel and Samson get a look in.

I hope Indian team does well on this tour overall, but I am more excited in what Sanath Jayasuriya brings to the Sri Lankan coaching and if he can turn Sri Lanka's fortunes around. Also their captaincy has been in a perennial churn for a really long time and I hope Asalanka is the captain that Sri Lanka are looking for. I really like their bowling attack (I was really hoping that they did well in the recent T20 WC, but their batting massively disappointed) and the way its building up and I hope their batting can somehow find the balance to start challenging oppositions again. At one point of time, they were consistently making ICC finals (Source: Cricinfo)...

One question, if Kohli and Rohit were asked to join ODI squad; where is Bumrah?

As He is a fast bowler he need some Rest Before India vs NZ , AUS Test Series

 

[Pinch hitter]

I feeling like Today might Sri Lanka will beat India, just like Women's team did...

We have a new spasm in the house folks.

Neck Spasm.

Too much cricket! Didn't even follow this one!

 

[Aravind.]

Smooth start to GG era, was in doubt how sky will perform as captain, not a bad beginning.

Riyan Parag must play in 2027 50 over world cup for his dream to come true to play in the prestigious world cup

He can always move to the USA with Gaikwad if it doesn't work out
