"What Suryakumar Yadav Can Do, Even Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma Can't": Harbhajan Singh

As the India squad for the ODI World Cup 2023 was announced, Suryakumar Yadav's inclusion in the team did raise a few eyebrows considering the poor form the batter has shown since making his debut in the 50-over format for India. Some even felt that Sanju Samson should've been given the nod over Surya, owing to an exemplary record in the 50-over format. But, Harbhajan Singh isn't in agreement. In fact, Bhajji feels what Suryakumar can do at the No. 5 or No. 6 position, no other batter in the Indian team can.

Indian leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal's wife Dhanashree Verma has boosted the confidence of the player ahead of his debut for English county side Kent.

You are our legend," wrote Dhanashree on her Instagram story, adding, "Let's show some more magic."

Playing against Bangladesh in the Super 4 match at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore, Babar scored 17 runs off 22 balls before becoming a victim of Bangladesh pacer Taskin Ahmed.

India Have 'Lost In Big Match Situations', Sourav Ganguly's Concerns Ahead Of World Cup 2023

The Indian cricket team squad for the Cricket World Cup 2023 has been mostly on the expected lines. The BCCI selectors went with proven performers and did not go for massive experimentations. KL Rahul and Shreyas Iyer got the nod despite coming back from lengthy injury breaks. The Indian cricket team also went with three left-arm spinners and three specialist pacers. Hardik Pandya and Shardul Thakur are the two fast-bowling allrounders. The team has clearly gone for batting depth. All eyes will be on the Rohit Sharma-led side when it starts its Cricket World Cup 2023 campaign with a match against Australia on October 8.

This Is Not Rohit Sharma, It's His "Stunt Double": Pakistan Great On India Captain's Struggles vs Shaheen Afridi

Former Pakistan pacer Shoaib Akhtar feels that Shaheen Shah Afridi has conquered the mind of India batter Rohit Sharma. When India and Pakistan faced each other in an Asia Cup 2023 game last week, Shaheen cleaned up Rohit with a ripper. It was a fuller delivery from the left-arm pacer that swung into the India captain and went through the defence to rattle his stumps at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium. Rohit was dismissed for 11 runs off 22 balls.

Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma Skip Optional Practice, KL Rahul Sweats It Out

The Indian Team has started to prepare for their second match with Pakistan in the Asia Cup in the Super Four stage which will be played on Sunday in Colombo. India had an intense practice session ahead of their clash with arch-rival Pakistan on Thursday. KL Rahul who had missed the first match against Pakistan in the Asia Cup after he picked up a niggle, also joined the nets. He practised for both left-arm pacers and right-arm pacers, keeping in mind the quality bowling attack of the Pakistan side. He spent the longest time in the nets to be fully prepared for his comeback match.

"India Will Make Huge Blunder If...": Gautam Gambhir Fires Team Selection Warning

The Indian cricket team is set to battle a huge dilemma over which player to pick for the No. 5 spot in the team. While KL Rahul has been playing the role for a while in India's ODI team, the manner which Ishan Kishan fulfilled the responsibility at the position impressed everyone. In fact, there are many who feel Ishan should continue to play at the No. 5 spot for India, even at the cost of Rahul sitting on the bench. There are however, those too, who think otherwise.
