"When I See Jasprit Bumrah...": Sourav Ganguly Triggers Fresh Debate On Indian Pitches

Jasprit Bumrah's throbbing afternoon spell on the second day of the second Test against England in Vizag on Saturday made former Indian skipper Sourav Ganguly advocating for sporting pitches rather than preparing rank turners. Bumrah homed in on Ollie Pope's stumps with a laser-guided yorker to dismiss the England batter for 23 off 55 balls, earning it a separate fan base altogether. It wasn't entirely surprising then to see Ganguly, a lifelong supporter of pace bowling and sporting tracks, airing his views in favour of decks that keeps bowlers of all genres in the game, rather than just spinners.

"Shubman Gill Has Got Cushion That Even Cheteshwar Pujara Didn't": Anil Kumble Minces No Words

Former India captain Anil Kumble feels that the embattled Shubman Gill has been given the kind of "cushion" that veteran Cheteshwar Pujara never got and the young batter needs to make it count in the second Test against England or risk being under tremendous pressure. The 24-year-old Gill has not scored a half century in his last 11 Test innings. He scored a 128 in India's first innings against visiting Australian in Ahmedabad in March last year, but after that his highest score has been 36.

"I Couldn't Turn Down": Ben Stokes On Leading England In Tests

England Test skipper Ben Stokes opened up about leading the side in Tests and said that it was an opportunity that he couldn't turn down. After registering a 28-run victory against India in the first Test on the back of Ollie Pope's 196 and a seven-wicket haul from debutant Tom Hartley, England will look to lead the series 2-0 when they take on hosts in the second match on Friday at Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium. In the opening match, the southpaw played a knock of 70 runs in the first innings. The all-rounder asserted that he never aspired to lead the England side in the longest format of the game. He said that this is a role he has enjoyed.

'Rohit Sharma Past His Best, India Badly Miss...": England Great's Bombastic Verdict

Former England opener Geoffrey Boycott feels India skipper Rohit Sharma is "past his prime" and the hosts badly missed the peerless Virat Kohli in the series opener against England in Hyderabad Despite enjoying a strong position after the first innings, India lost by 28 runs against England in the first Test to trail 0-1 in the five-match series. In the absence of Kohli, the onus was on Rohit to shoulder the responsibility in the batting department but he could only manage 24 and 39 in two innings as the Indian batting crumbled big time while chasing 231 on a fourth day pitch. And Boycott believes it is a golden chance for England to beat India in their own backyard after 12 years.

"Fear Of Failure": India Star's Verdict On Rohit Sharma And Co After Loss Against England

Veteran Indian cricket team wicket-keeper batter Dinesh Karthik said that Rohit Sharma and Co lacked body language and pointed out 'fear of failure' as one of the main reasons behind the loss against England in the first Test match in Hyderabad on Sunday. India dominated major parts of the Test match but a brilliant knock from Ollie Pope and a seven-wicket haul from Tom Hartley clinched the game for the visitors. During the analysis of the match, Karthik said that there is a massive difference in culture between the two teams and it seemed like the Indian batters were not free in their minds to play shots.

Rahul Dravid Provides Update On Ravindra Jadeja's Injury Ahead Of 2nd Test vs England

India all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja remains a doubt for the second Test against England, starting Friday at the ACA-VDCA Stadium in Vizag. Jadeja appeared to have pulled his hamstring during Day 4 of the first Test as England took a 1-0 lead in the five-match series after beating India by 28 runs in Hyderabad. Chasing a target of 231, India were bowled out for 202. Jadeja was run out in the second innings courtesy of Ben Stokes' outrageous underarm flick at the non-striker's end.

"Given Them Something To Think About": Mark Wood On Team India After 1st Test Win

England getting bamboozled on turning tracks is no longer a "foregone conclusion" and the shock loss in the opening Test has given India a lot to think about ahead of the second game, says visiting team's pace ace Mark Wood. England rode on vice-captain Ollie Pope's epic 196 and debutant left-arm spinner Tom Hartley's seven-wicket haul in the fourth innings to fashion a memorable 28-run win in the opening Test in Hyderabad on Sunday. "I don't know what (pitch) they will produce (for the second Test). India have got the potential to produce any wicket here. I've played in World Cup games and IPL games where it's seamed, flat pitches, spinning wickets. They have the potential to do any wicket they want.
