Ex-India Star, Who Suggested Ranji Trophy To Be 'Scrapped', Now Says This

A day after his retirement from cricket, Bengal star Manoj Tiwary raised concerns over the IPL-centric approach of young cricketers and strongly advocated for greater emphasis on Ranji Trophy. The 38-year-old Tiwary, who served Bengal for about two decades and represented India in 12 ODIs and three T20Is, had recently posted on X that Ranji Trophy should be "scrapped" but did not elaborate on the subject as he was an active BCCI cricketer.

Many cricketers have shown promise, yet their international career fizzled out after some time. Manoj Tiwary, who served Bengal for about two decades and represented India in 12 ODIs and three T20Is, is part of that list. The player retired a day after Bengal's final match in the Ranji Trophy this season.

"Don't Have Concerns Over Him": Brendon McCullum Backs Star Batter Amid Rough Patch

England Test coach Brendon McCullum backed Jonny Bairstow as the wicketkeeper-batter seeks to rediscover his lost form after registering scores of 0 and 4 in the team's 434-run defeat in the third Test against India. Bairstow's performances in the Test series have been underwhelming and he has an average of 17.00 from six innings. Before the beginning of the series, England skipper Ben Stokes had backed Bairstow to do wonders as he only had to focus on his batting with wicketkeeper Ben Foakes taking the responsibility behind the stumps.
