Yash Dhull Sets Himself 18-month Target To Play For Team India

Yash Dhull has lost count of the number of flights he has taken in the past 48 hours. He had spent the previous day in Ahmedabad where the entire team was felicitated a following tiring journey in which the squad had to take as many as four flights to reach India from the Caribbean. Having lived out of suitcase for the past two months, which could potentially be life-changing, when Dhull finally met his parents, it was just a mere 30 minutes of reunion for the sleep-deprived captain of the World Cup winning India U-19 team.

Someone Else Took Credit For Decisions I Took In Australia: Ajinkya Rahane

He was a central figure in India's epic turnaround during the 2020-21 tour of Australia but stand-in captain of that series Ajinkya Rahane says "someone else took the credit" for decisions he made to resurrect the team after the nightmarish 36 all out in the Adelaide Test. As regular captain Virat Kohli flew out of Australia, leaving in his wake the disappointment of the humiliating loss in the opener at Adelaide, Rahane took over the reins in the most difficult of circumstances.

Shikhar Dhawan will add more firepower to a ruthless India, who are faced with the problem of plenty, as they eye a clean sweep of West Indies in an inconsequential third ODI here on Friday. Hosts India head into the final match of the series after having ticked almost all the boxes in the first two games, which they won comfortably.

Dream Was To Get Debut Cap From Either MS Dhoni Or Virat Kohli: Deepak Hooda

Trying To "Boss The Opposition": Ex-India Cricketers On Virat Kohli's Dismissal In 2nd ODI vs West Indies

Former India cricketers Laxman Sivaramakrishnan and Murali Kartik analysed Virat Kohli's dismissal in the 2nd ODI against West Indies at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Wednesday. Kohli, who hasn't been at his best of late, was once again out flashing outside the off-stump to a medium pacer. Odean Smith, who came into the West Indies XI after regular captain Kieron Pollard was unavailable due to a niggle, gave India a body blow by picking the wickets of Rishabh Pant and Virat Kohli in the same over. While Pant was out trying heave a delivery from way outside the off stump, Kohli edged a wide one to the keeper in the last ball of the 12th over. Edging the ball to the slip cordon while chasing fuller length deliveries outside the off stump, has been one of the most common modes of dismissals for the former India captain.

"I made my debut in the first ODI, it was an amazing feeling. You always work hard for that, before the match I spoke to you (Suryakumar Yadav). I feel blessed to be a part of the side. It was my childhood dream to get cap from either MS Dhoni or Virat Kohli. Getting the cap from Kohli was an amazing feeling. I worked on sidelining the distraction and work on my process," Hooda told teammate Suryakumar Yadav in a video posted on BCCI.TV.
