Matthew Kuhnemann Returns Home With 'Some Awesome Tips' From Ravindra Jadeja

Rookie Australian left-arm spinner Matthew Kuhnemann, who made an impressive debut in the Test series against India, said he has received "some awesome tips" about his craft from star all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja. Kuhnemann said Jadeja stuck to his "promise and spent about 15 minutes talking about everything" after India clinched the series 2-1 following the drawn fourth and final Test in Ahmedabad on Sunday. "It was probably about 15 minutes, he (Jadeja) was just giving me some awesome tips; we talked about everything," Kuhnemann was quoted as saying by Fox Cricket.

"Don't Think He Is At His Pure Best": Australia Great's Unique Take On Virat Kohli

Virat Kohli struck his 28th century in the longest format during the fourth Test between India and Australia on Sunday. This ton was a special one as it came after a long wait of 3.5 years and was Kohli's 75th international century. He had last touched the triple figures in Tests in November 2019 against Bangladesh. Kohli's fiery hundred guided Team India to a total of 571 on Day 4 of the fourth Test, which eventually ended in a draw on Monday. The right-handed batter has been receiving a lot of praise from fans as well as former cricketers.

"Rahul Dravid Literally Spoke About Him..." Dinesh Karthik Reveals How Head Coach Praised India Pacer

Pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar is arguably one of the finest pacers India ever produced. Making his fiery debut in a T20I against Pakistan in 2012, the Meerut-born cricketer has scalped 90 wickets in the shortest format, with two five-wicket hauls. Over the years, he took Team India across the line on numerous occasions, with his blistering pace. However, Bhuvneshwar faced a lot of flak after he failed to leave a mark in the 2022 T20 World Cup. The 33-year-old pacer could only scalp four wickets in the entire tournament and leaked a lot of runs in the death overs. He played his last match for India against New Zealand in November 2022 and has been out of favor since then.

India will play in the World Test Championship (WTC) final for the second time in as many seasons when they take on Australia in the summit clash, slated to be played at the Oval in London from June 7-11. India defeated Australia 2-1 in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy after the fourth and final Test ended in a stalemate on Monday. While India might have clinched a fourth straight Test series win over Australia, there were plenty of issues which are needed to be addressed by the team management before the WTC final.

"You Made Me Wait For...": Rahul Dravid Pokes Fun At Virat Kohli After 28th Test Century

Star India batter Virat Kohli hit his first Test century in over three years on Day 4 of the fourth Test against Australia. Kohli had a tough 2021 and 2022, failing to reach three figures in over 1,200 days. However, since scoring his first T20I century during the Asia Cup last year, Kohli hasn't looked back. The 34-year-old finished the T20 World Cup in Australia last year as the leading run-scorer and then hit three ODI centuries including two -- 113 and 166 not out -- against Sri Lanka in January, earlier this year.

"Don't Know If I Will Be Around": Rohit Sharma's Honest Admission On Next Border-Gavaskar Trophy At Home

Leading the Indian team in his first Border-Gavaskar Trophy as skipper, Rohit Sharma got the desired results as the hosts defeated the tourists 2-1 in the 4-match series. While this was Rohit's first Border-Gavaskar Trophy home as skipper, the Hitman was asked about the next one, which will be held in years' time. In an honest take, Rohit admitted that he isn't aware if he would be around in that series, as well as other veterans like Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja.

Former India captain Sunil Gavaskar reckons Hardik Pandya can stake claim for leadership role in one-dayers too after the World Cup this year, provided his side emerges victorious against Australia in the first ODI here on Friday. With regular skipper Rohit Sharma set to miss the first ODI at the Wankhede Stadium due to family commitments, Pandya has been named the stand-in captain for the contest. The 29-year-old all-rounder, who captained Gujarat Titans to title win in their maiden appearance in the Indian Premier League 2022 season, is already the incumbent leader for India in the shortest format.
