David Warner Out Of Last Two Tests Against India In Australia's Deepening Injury Crisis

Australia batter David Warner is out of the remaining two Tests of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy due to a hairline fracture on their left elbow, Cricket Australia has confirmed. Warner was substituted out of the second Test in New Delhi after sustaining a concussion last week. That blow came not long after the opening batter had been struck on the arm by another rising delivery. Later x-rays revealed that the left-hander had sustained a hairline fracture of the elbow which will keep him out of the remaining two matches of the Test series. However, the southpaw is expected to return for the ODI series later.

"Tables Have Turned": Ramiz Raja's 'Tailor-Made' Dig At Australia As India Retain Border-Gavaskar Trophy

Former Pakistan Cricket Board chairman and captain Ramiz Raja has claimed that it is impossible to beat the Indian team on their own soil. If it wasn't for Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja on Day 3 of the second Test at Delhi's Arun Jaitley Stadium, Australia could have entertained hopes of squaring the series and reclaiming the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. However, the spin twins managed to turn the tide in favour of the hosts as they cast a web around the Aussie batters, triggering a collapse. With the Aussies losing the plot and their wickets in a heap, the hosts were left to chase a paltry target to take an assailable lead in the series.

After Venkatesh Prasad's Dig At KL Rahul's Overseas Record, Ex-India Batter's Counter

India's opening batter KL Rahul continues to remain an intense topic of chatter among fans and experts of the game. His poor run with the bat has seen him become critics' favourite target, with former India pacer Venkatesh Prasad firing shots at him, as well as the team management's backing of him. Prasad even questioned the 'overseas performance' perception of Rahul on Monday, suggesting that the batter only averages 30 in 56 innings outside India. However, another former India batter Aakash Chopra, has now countered Prasad's claims.

Former India spinner Harbhajan Singh has joined the engrossing debate over KL Rahul's place in the Indian team.

Rahul, who failed to fire in the first two Tests against Australia, however, isn't expected to open alongside Rohit Sharma in the next two matches, as per Harbhajan Singh.

Ravindra Jadeja's comeback after a long injury layoff is getting better by the day. The left-arm spinner returned with career-best figures of 7/42 in the second Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy to lead Australia's hammering by six wickets inside three days on Sunday to bring the hosts to a 2-0 Test series lead. Jadeja teamed up with fellow spinner Ravichandran Ashwin to dismiss Australia for 113 in a morning session when the tourists' batting imploded, thanks to an overused sweep shot on a tricky New Delhi pitch.
