Mohammed Shami Or Deepak Chahar? Ex-India Star Picks Jasprit Bumrah's Replacement In T20 World Cup 2022

Finding Jasprit Bumrah's replacement isn't the easiest of tasks. The marquee Indian pacer is out of the T20 World Cup 2022 with a back injury and will probably be out of action for months. There isn't a like-for-like replacement for Bumrah in the Indian team considering the qualities he brings, but there remain a couple of options for the selectors to choose from for the showpiece event in Australia. Among the top candidates, the choice is most likely to be made between Mohammed Shami and Deepak Chahar. Former India cricketer Parthiv Patel has given his opinion on the subject, suggesting which player among Chahar and Shami would he want to get the nod.

Australia vs England, 1st T20I Live Updates: Australia Win Toss, Opt To Field

Australia vs England, 1st T20I, Live Score Updates: Australia captain Aaron Finch won the toss and opted to field first against England in the first T20I of the three-match series. Jos Buttler marks his return to the England team after missing the entire 7-match series against Pakistan. Australia and England are in the last leg of their preparation for the upcoming T20 World Cup and these two sides would face one another in a three-match T20I series, beginning Sunday in Perth. England have Ben Stokes back in their ranks and skipper Jos Buttler who did not feature in T20I series against Pakistan, is also fit and raring to go for the series against Australia. On the other hand, hosts Australia have rested Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood, Mitchell Starc and Glenn Maxwell for the first T20I so it is fair to say that England enter the contest as the clear favourites.

"Needs To Rekindle The Magic": Ex-Australia Captain On Virat Kohli

Virat Kohli, Steve Smith, Kane Williamson, Joe Root, Marnus Labuschagne and Babar Azam. These modern-day greats make the experience of watching cricket wholesome and the fans keep on debating on who is the best batter among this lot. Kohli, who was a runaway favourite for being the best batter, suffered a blip in form after November 2019 and he failed to register a single century since then. He finally broke the dry spell in the Asia Cup which was held earlier this year, and that was also his first T20I century.

T20 World Cup: Need to follow process and routine for success, says Suryakumar Yadav after first net session in Australia

Suryakumar Yadav believes following his process and routine will be key to a good campaign in his maiden T20 World Cup outing in Australia. Since making his T20I debut in March last year, Suryakumar has evolved as one of the most destructive batters in the format and has risen to the No.2 spot in the ICC T20I rankings. "I was really looking forward to come here and attend the first practice session, go on the field, have a run, have a feel how its like here. The first net session was also really amazing, just wanted to see how the pace of the wicket is, how the bounce is," the 32-year-old said in a video posted by the BCCI.

"Don't See X-Factor In These 2 That Rishabh Pant Has": Ex Selector On India Stars

Former chief selector Saba Karim feels Rishabh Pant remains India's first choice wicketkeeper, despite the presence of Sanju Samson and youngster Ishan Kishan. While suggesting that Samson can play in the team as a pure batter, Karim believes that Kishan hasn't made the most of the opportunities given to him by the management. Karim further pointed out that Pant has the X-factor, which gives him an edge over Samson and Kishan. He also backed Pant to retain his place in the team in both red and white-ball cricket.
