"More Prodigious Than His Waistline": Sunil Gavaskar's 'Slim' Take On Sarfaraz Khan

Legendary India batter Sunil Gavaskar lauded Sarfaraz Khan for his attacking 150 in the recent first Test against New Zealand, adding that his batting returns were even more remarkable than his waistline. After bagging a duck in the first innings, where India were bowled out for 46, Sarfaraz was at the forefront of India's second innings total of 462 through an attacking 150 – his maiden Test hundred - laced with 18 fours and three sixes. He wowed cricket fans at M Chinnaswamy Stadium through his cheeky and unorthodox shots, especially through the square region in the off-side. "Sarfaraz Khan has been denied a place in the Indian team for some years now, despite scoring runs by the hundreds in domestic cricket."

BCCI Sent 'Injustice For Sarfaraz Khan' Warning By Ex-Pakistan Star: "Once Shubman Gill Is..."

Former Pakistan cricketer Basit Ali wants Team India to drop star batter KL Rahul from the Test side once Shubman Gill is fit enough to play again. Gill missed the first Test against New Zealand in Bengaluru, which India lost by 8 wickets on Sunday, due to a stiff neck. India roped Sarfaraz Khan to replace Gill in the XI, and the Mumbai batter hit his maiden Test century, slamming 150 in the second innings to make the most of the opportunity.

"Bit Surprised": Sanjay Manjrekar Questions Rohit Sharma's Tactics After India's Test Defeat To New Zealand

Former Indian cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar has criticized skipper Rohit Sharma's tactical decisions following India's first Test defeat to New Zealand in Bengaluru. Rohit faced significant backlash for his captaincy, particularly after New Zealand managed to add 137 crucial runs for the eighth wicket in their first innings. The criticism continued on Day 5 of the match. With New Zealand needing 107 runs to win, Rohit opted to bring on Ravichandran Ashwin, India's most successful bowler at home, only after 10 runs had been scored. Instead, he utilized Mohammed Siraj, who remained wicketless across two spells totalling seven overs, yielding no results.

"Don't Play Like Westerners": Rachin Ravindra Talks About 'Indian Heritage' In Batting Approach

New Zealand all-rounder Rachin Ravindra said that his Indian heritage helped him tackle spin better during Kiwis' win over India in the first Test. Rachin, born to Bengaluru parents in New Zealand, starred in NZ's first Test win in India after 36 years, smashing a fine 134 in the first innings to help Kiwis take a massive lead of 356 runs, something from which India could not fully recover despite a fine show with the bat in the second innings. Later during the run chase of 107 runs, Rachin played a calm and composed knock of 39*, guiding his side to a monumental win.

"100 Per Cent Pain-Free": Mohammed Shami Sends Massive Message Amid Injury Concerns

His fitness becoming a topic of swirling speculation, seasoned India pacer Mohammed Shami said on Monday that he is completely pain-free and is still not out of reckoning for the marquee Test tour of Australia starting next month. Shami bowled full tilt in the nets after India's opening Test against New Zealand in Bengaluru on Sunday. This was a few days after skipper Rohit Sharma revealed that he had swelling in his knees which has affected his rehabilitation from an ankle injury sustained last year. "I am very happy with how I bowled yesterday. I was bowling from half run-up before that because I didn't want to take too much load. But yesterday, I decided to go full tilt, and I bowled at a 100 per cent," the 34-year-old told reporters on the sidelines of an event by Eugenix Hair Sciences where he spoke about his cricketing journey.
