"Don't Think He Can Survive As Test Opening Batsman": Ricky Ponting's Shocking Take On Sam Konstas

Former Australia captain and the ICC Hall of Famer, Ricky Ponting doesn't think the young prodigy can survive as an opening batter in the Test format if he continues to bat like he did at MCG. The world wasn't ready to witness Konstas going all guns blazing on his debut when he stepped in front of a sold-out crowd in the Boxing Day Test. With a ramp shot for a towering six over the head of Rishabh Pant, Konstas tonked the first maximum off the world's current best pacer, Jasprit Bumrah.

Ravichandran Ashwin "Was Insulted": On India Star's Abrupt Retirement, Ex-India Star Drops Bombshell

Former India batter Manoj Tiwary on Thursday said current national team head coach Gautam Gambhir is "not the right choice" for the top job and he is only adept in mentoring IPL franchises, citing the side's recent struggles to support his remarks. Under Gambhir, India lost an ODI series in Sri Lanka for the first time in 27 years, and they hit a new low when they were whitewashed 0-3 by New Zealand at home, unprecedented in the country's cricket history. Recently, India lost the Border-Gavaskar Trophy for the first time in a decade, and Tiwary, who has had a dressing room altercation with Gambhir during their playing days in the IPL, took note of these reversals since his appointment as the coach.

KL Rahul has been the established wicket-keeper batter in ODIs for quite some time, while Rishabh Pant and Sanju Samson are also very much in the mix. Now, Former India cricketers Sanjay Manjrekar and Sanjay Bangar have stirred debate by leaving out Pant from their 15-man squad for the Champions Trophy.

"Gautam Gambhir Is A Hypocrite": Ex-India Star Drops Bombshell After Border-Gavaskar Trophy Disaster

Former Indian cricket team star Manoj Tiwary launched a scathing attack on coach Gautam Gambhir as he called him a 'hypocrite' following the Test series loss against Australia.

The Border-Gavaskar Trophy loss led to more criticism for Gambhir with Tiwary saying that he has not shown the kind of coaching that was expected. He also went on to criticise the appointments of bowling coach Morne Morkel and assistant coach Abhishek Nayar.

Massive Changes In Australia Squad After BGT Win, No Pat Cummins For Sri Lanka Test Series

Australia recalled opener Nathan McSweeney and called up all-rounder Cooper Connolly on Thursday for the first time in a spin-heavy Test squad for the tour of Sri Lanka, with Steve Smith captain. Regular skipper Pat Cummins stays home for the birth of his second child while fellow fast bowler Josh Hazlewood is rested after picking up a calf injury. There is no place for the dropped Mitch Marsh in the 16-man squad. McSweeney was axed after just three matches for the fourth India Test after failing to justify his inclusion at the top of the order and replaced by fearless 19-year-old Sam Konstas.

India's Champions Trophy Squad: Rohit Sharma To Lead, Three Big Exclusions?

Out-of-form veterans Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will continue to form the batting core of India's ODI squad but there are at least three senior players whose future in the 50-over format could be debated when the selectors gather this weekend to pick the squad for the Champions Trophy. KL Rahul, Mohammed Shami and Ravindra Jadeja's presence in the side is not a surety for the event starting February 19 even though they were a part of last year's World Cup. Since the final, India have played six ODIs and while Shami and Jadeja were rested, Rahul was included for both the away bilateral engagements against South Africa and Sri Lanka. Against Sri Lanka, however, he was dropped in the middle of the series after failing to get going in the middle overs. The world is also yet to forget how his sedate half century after using up 100-plus deliveries became a prime reason for India's loss on November 19, 2023 against Australia.

Poor performances from the veteran stars have left their Test futures in jeopardy, with several fans and experts questioning why they don't play domestic cricket regularly either. In light of this scenario, a former BCCI official has reportedly requested that a "strict message" be sent to those who have failed to perform for Team India.
