New Zealand Star Names Two Indians Who Pose Maximum Threat In Test Series. Not Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma Or Jasprit Bumrah

Top-order batter Rachin Ravindra said on Monday that nullifying the twin threat posed by senior spinners Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja will be crucial to New Zealand's success in the three-match series against India. Ashwin and Jadeja together have grabbed over 800 Test wickets, and are among the most experienced bowling pairs in world cricket at present. "They've got consistent bowlers who bowl in an area for a long period of time. I mean, you see the two spinners who play consistently, Ashwin and Jadeja, they're two very accomplished bowlers. You know, they can bat too, which makes it a little bit hard,” Ravindra told reporters on Monday.

"0 Experience": India Star's Cryptic Taunt After Harmanpreet Kaur-led Team's Loss vs Australia In T20 World Cup

Harmanpreet Kaur-led Indian cricket team's dreams of entering the Women's T20 World Cup semi-finals suffered a major blow when it lost to Australia in its final Grup A match. The loss means that India's fortunes are not in their own hands. Though India are sitting at the second spot in Group A behind Australia, with the top two teams advancing to the last four stage, third-placed New Zealand are firm favourites to beat Pakistan on Monday to enter the semi-finals. For India to qualify for semi-finals, Pakistan must beat New Zealand but not by a big margin as that would see the Fatima Sana-led side leap both teams to enter the next stage.

Injured Kelleher adds to Irish headache at hooker

Gautam Gambhir Silences Talks Around Virat Kohli's "Hunger" Ahead Of New Zealand Tests

India head coach Gautam Gambhir is not too concerned about the recent lukewarm form of Virat Kohli, insisting that the star batter remains as hungry as he was when he made his debut and should not be judged after every match. Kohli has made only one fifty, a 76 against South Africa at Centurion in December 2023, in his last eight innings, and him regaining his touch is crucial for India against New Zealand in a three-Test rubber starting on Wednesday and during the five-match series against Australia next month.
