"No Member Of Team Can Say He's A Certainty...": Sunil Gavaskar On India's Bench Strength In White-Ball Cricket

With 10 wins on the bounce in T20Is, India are currently flexing their muscle for the ICC T20 World Cup slated to take place in Australia later this year. Under new skipper Rohit Sharma, India have whitewashed New Zealand, West Indies and have already taken a 1-0 lead in the ongoing T20I series against Sri Lanka. The fact that India have displayed such dominating performance in the shortest format of the game despite missing some of their first-XI players due to various reasons, speaks volumes about the depth in their side. Stressing on that fact, the legendary Sunil Gavaskar said “no member” of this Indian side can claim to be a certainty as there are multiple youngsters breathing down their neck.

Ravindra Jadeja was not amused when an online poll conducted by his IPL franchise Chennai Super Kings suggested his best batting position was No. 8. "No. 8 too early for me! Put me at 11," was Jadeja's peeved reply. Over the years, the southpaw has been assigned the role of a designated finisher. But the Rajkot allrounder's batting has improved by leaps and bounds in the past 12 months, something which could have tempted India skipper Rohit Sharma to promote the left-hander to No. 4 in the first T20I against Sri Lanka.

"It'll Take Time To Explain": Pakistan Pacer Recalls Words From MS Dhoni During "Dream" Meeting

Young Pakistan pacer Shahnawaz Dahani was yet to make his international debut when he bumped into former India captain MS Dhoni during the T20 World Cup in the UAE last year. Pakistan, who were on top form during the tournament before a heartbreaking semi-final loss to eventual champions Australia in the semi-finals, had defeated arch-rivals India in their opening match of the tournament during the group match. It was the first time that Pakistan defeated India in an ICC World Cup match across both 50-over and 20-over formats.
