"Don't Want To Take Unnecessary Pressure": India Star On Rishabh Pant's Return

Indian cricket team wicket-keeper batter Dhruv Jurel had a good outing in the Test series against England earlier in 2024 with 190 runs in four innings across three Tests. However, with India taking on Bangladesh in a 2-match Test series, Jurel's position in the side remains uncertain. Rishabh Pant had a good showing in the T20 World Cup 2024 and with his inclusion for the Duleep Trophy, the selectors have shown great trust in him. KL Rahul and Ishan Kishan have also staked their claim for a spot in the India squad with Jurel finding himself in a tough fight. However, the youngster remains unfazed by the challenges and he said that he wants to take one day at a time without any kind of "unnecessary pressure".

Not Rohit Sharma Or Virat Kohli, This Indian Batter "Will Be A Massive Challenge" For Australian Bowlers, Feels Nathan Lyon

Ace off-spinner Nathan Lyon has already started his homework on rising batting sensation Yashasvi Jaiswal with England spinner Tom Hartley's inputs on the southpaw safely stored in his memory bank ahead of the five-Test Border-Gavaskar series between India and Australia starting from November 22.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) secretary Jay Shah said that the decision on pacer Mohammed Shami's participation in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy away from home later this year will be taken after the report from National Cricket Academy (NCA).

'Will Be Drawing On Cameron Green, Mitchell Marsh A Bit More': Pat Cummins Ahead Of Border-Gavaskar Trophy Against India

Australia Test captain Pat Cummins expects greater workload with the ball for all-rounders Cameron Green and Mitchell Marsh against India in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy this summer. Cummins wants both the all-rounders to share the workload with the team's frontline pace attack in the gruelling five-Test series starting November. "It's been huge (having the all-rounders). In some ways we haven't had to use them as much as we thought we would. Which is a great thing. The last couple of summers have been pretty light (with) quick Test matches," Cummins said at the launch of Play Cricket week.
