Sunil Gavaskar Delivers Clear Verdict On Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma: "Even Best Of Players..."

Legendary Indian cricket team batter Sunil Gavaskar believes that Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are going through a bad patch of form but added that people should not "read too much into it". Both Rohit and Virat had horrible outings as India slumped to a humiliating 0-3 series loss against New Zealand in Mumbai on Sunday. Chasing 147 on Day 3, Rohit and Virat were dismissed cheaply as the hosts were bundled out for just 121. Gavaskar said that the duo has not enjoyed any luck in the three-match Test series against New Zealand and that has made the situation worse for them.

Virat Kohli-Rohit Sharma's Poor Form A Big Concern For India? Report Reveals Damning Statistics

India's grueling home Test season finally ended with some worrying signs that are straightaway linked to the future of Gautam Gambhir's shaky start to his reign as head coach. The phase of transition which supposedly began when Ajinkya Rahane and Cheteshwar Pujara were slowly sidelined from the Test setup, had started to show its effect as young blood continues to infuse itself in the team. Even though the bowlers had their woes but still managed to thrive in patches throughout the home season, India's lackluster batting department was left exposed by some of the most inexperienced overseas spinners. India's historic series whitewash against New Zealand on a Sunday was a stark reminder of the slowly depleting art of playing against spinners.

Well-known Australian batting coach Neil D'Costa has cited Prithvi Shaw's decline in international cricket as a cautionary example, urging Australian selectors not to "rush" 19-year-old sensation Sam Konstas into Test cricket for the blockbuster series against India.

Najmul Hossain Shanto To Continue As Bangladesh Captain For ODI Series vs Afghanistan

The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has named Najmul Hossain Shanto as captain for the upcoming three-match ODI series against Afghanistan in Sharjah next week, in a shakeup following Shanto's request to step down from all-format captaincy. The decision came after a discussion between Shanto and BCB president Faruque Ahmed on Thursday following Bangladesh's recent Test in Chattogram. Though Shanto will lead the squad against Afghanistan, the BCB has yet to announce a long-term decision on his captaincy or the squad for the West Indies tour later in November, where Bangladesh will play two Tests, three ODIs, and three T20Is.

East Bengal Beat Nejmeh 3-2 To Enter AFC Challenge League Quarter-Finals

Dimitrios Diamantakos' brace fired East Bengal FC into the knockout stage of the AFC Challenge League 2024-25 as the ISL side edged past Nejmeh SC of Lebanon 3-2 in their final Group A match at Thimphu, Bhutan Friday. East Bengal finished as the Group A winners on seven points to seal progression.

East Bengal, who trailed Nejmeh by two points heading into this encounter, took the lead in the eighth minute when Madih Talal's corner kick was inadvertently headed into his own net by Baba Musah at the Changlimithang Stadium in Thimphu.

"Many Infamous Records Have Already Been Created In Gautam Gambhir's Tenure": Ex-India Star

Gautam Gambhir's tenure as India head coach so far has not been a memorable one for sure. It all started with India's tour of Sri Lanka. While the visitors won the T20I series 3-0, they lost the three-match ODI series 2-0. India then thoroughly outplayed Bangladesh in a two-match Test series and a similar performance was expected from them during their three-match series against New Zealand that followed. However, what happened was the exact opposite of the expectations as the Blackcaps outplayed India in the first two Tests to take an unassailable lead of 2-0 with a match to go.
