"Complete Cricketer Is...": Gautam Gambhir's Explosive 'Skill Against Spin' Verdict

Head coach Gautam Gambhir on Thursday refuted the claims that Indian batters' skill set against quality spin bowling has deteriorated over last few years but felt that the slam-bang nature of T20 cricket has affected players' defence. India were found wanting once again at Pune in the second Test as their 113-run loss on a spin-friendly pitch ended their 12-year unbeaten run on home soil. "I don't think so," Gambhir asserted when asked if Indian batters' spin negotiating skills have gone down. "Sometimes you have to give it to the opposition as well. Mitchell Santner was outstanding in the last game. But yes, we'll keep working hard, we'll keep getting better. Guys are putting in a lot of hard yards in the nets.

Felt As Long As I Am Playing, We Won't Lose Series In India: Ravindra Jadeja

The last time India lost a Test series at home dozen of years of back, Ravindra Jadeja had made his Test debut and perhaps in this journey of 77 long form games, he also felt a sense of invincibility whenever he donned the whites at home. After his 14th five-for in Tests, Jadeja admitted that his worst fear of losing a series at home has come true. "Firstly, I had this fear... personally I had thought that I won't lose a series in India as long as I am playing. But that too has happened," he said after opening day's play in the third Test.

"Our Batters Need To Perform": Ravindra Jadeja After 5-Wicket Haul In 3rd Test Against New Zealand

Ravindra Jadeja is happy with another five-wicket haul in Test cricket but conceded that in sultry conditions on a slow turner, bowling indeed was hardwork. Jadeja's 14th five-wicket haul came after a brief period of lull as he looked menacing while mixing deliveries, pitching it on good length spots and letting the variable bounce and abrasive surface work in his favour. However Jadeja's assessment of the track was also an indicator that possibly Ravichandran Ashwin has lost a bit of pace in his deliveries as it required more shoulder effort to get the zip off the surface.

India Hand New Zealand Control After Batting Flop Show On Day 1 In 3rd Test

India's batters lost the plot in a matter of 20 minutes, leaving the side at a jittery 86/4 after Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar gave the hosts the early bragging rights by dismissing New Zealand for 235 on an eventful day one of the third and final Test in Mumbai on Friday. Jadeja (5/65) and Sundar (4/81) did their job to perfection but India's batting continued to be a weak link as the side lost three wickets in the space of eight balls, starting with Yashasvi Jaiswal's (30) inexplicable reverse slog sweep. With his 14th five-for in Tests, Jadeja also moved ahead of former pace bowling teammates Zaheer Khan and Ishant Sharma to climb to the fifth spot in the list of highest wicket-takers for India in the format.

Watch - "Not What You Expect Of" Virat Kohli: Star's Last Over Run Out Called 'Disaster' As India Lose Momentum vs NZ

What was supposed to be a good day for India, has suddenly turned to be a tricky outing. Needing a win to avoid a series clean sweep, India dismissed New Zealand for 235 in the first innings. In reply, India were 78/1 at one stage, but from 17.2 overs to 18.3 overs, lost three wickets of Yashasvi Jaiswal, Mohammed Siraj and Virat Kohli. Kohli dismissal happened in the last over of the day. In a previous test of the three-match series, Kohli was out in the last over too.  Friday was the first time Virat Kohli got dismissed run out in a home Test.

Cut Down The Chatter: Rohit Sharma, Sarfaraz Khan Sent Strong Message By Umpire In 3rd Test vs NZ. Here's Why

Indian fielder Sarfaraz Khan was on Friday warned by the umpires in the presence of skipper Rohit Sharma for chirping even when the ball was in play, during New Zealand's first innings in the third and final Test of the 2024 series at the Wankhede Stadium. Umpire Richard Illingworth called up Sarfaraz and Rohit and the three had a long animated discussion before the 32nd over of the innings. The umpires were apparently unhappy as Sarfaraz, fielding close to the bat, was engaging in verbals even when the ball became alive.

Ravindra Jadeja Reveals He "Didn't Know" About Surpassing Ishant Sharma, Zaheer Khan In Elite List Of India Bowlers

Veteran all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja disclosed that he was unaware of surpassing renowned pacers Zaheer Khan and Ishant Sharma to become India's fifth-highest wicket-taker in Test cricket. On a sweltering day in Mumbai, the stars aligned perfectly for Jadeja, setting the stage for him to showcase his skill with the red ball. By claiming another five-wicket haul, Jadeja overtook Zaheer and Ishant, marking a significant achievement in his illustrious career. Reflecting on his performance for India, Jadeja candidly admitted he hadn't been aware of his milestone. "Taking a five-for for India in Tests is always special. I didn't know that. I usually check stats when I'm not playing. It's good to know I'm progressing and taking wickets," Jadeja remarked at the close of Day 1.
