"Nothing To Do With Me": Gautam Gambhir's Blunt Reply To Reporter On Sanju Samson Query

India head coach Gautam Gambhir might be preparing to help the Rohit Sharma-led Indian team in Australia but he also has one eye on what is happening in South Africa where the Suryakumar Yadav-led Indian team is engaged in a 3-match T20I series. Speaking to the media ahead of his flight to Australia, Gambhir encountered a rather unrelated question when the topic of Sanju Samson's performances in South Africa came up. Though Gambhir is the head coach of India's T20I team too, VVS Laxman has been given the boys' charge in the Rainbow Nation at the moment.

"Underutilised...": Ex-India Star Points Out Suryakumar Yadav's 'Obvious Mistake' Against South Africa

Former Indian cricket team batter Sanjay Manjrekar believes that all-rounder Axar Patel was 'underutilised' in the first two T20I encounters against South Africa. Following India's loss in the second game of the four-match series on Sunday, Manjrekar said that although India are playing Axar as the third spinner with Varun Chakravarthy and Ravi Bishnoi, the team management has failed to use him properly. While the track did provide some help to the spinners, Axar bowled just one over in the match. Manjrekar was not pleased with the decision and called it an "obvious mistake" by captain Suryakumar Yadav.

Varun Chakaravarthy Explains 'Gautam Gambhir Factor' Behind Roaring Form

Mystery spinner Varun Chakaravarthy has described the three-year gap from international cricket as "tough," but credited the intense domestic grind and the role clarity provided by new head coach Gautam Gambhir for helping him to regain his lost form. The 33-year-old spinner recorded his career-best figures of 5 for 17 in Sunday's second T20I against South Africa, though his efforts could not prevent India from losing by three wickets. Reflecting on his return to the national side, Chakaravarthy said that Gambhir's guidance had been pivotal.

From Local Leagues To IPL To Team India: Varun Chakravarthy's Remarkable Rise

Varun Chakaravarthy, after being dropped from the Indian cricket team, went back to the basics and made significant changes to his bowling technique. Reflecting on his learnings from his first stint with the team, Chakaravarthy shared the details of his journey. "I had to go to the drawing board and check out all my videos," Chakaravarthy said. "I figured out that I was bowling side spin, and it was not working out in the higher levels. So, I had to change everything about my bowling, and it took me two years and I started bowling in the local leagues and IPL also. So, it worked there, and I have started bowling it on the international stage and it's working out for me," he said exclusively on JioCinema after India's three-wicket loss to South Africa in the second T20I.

"Bad Captaincy By Suryakumar Yadav": Ex-Pakistan Star's Brutal Verdict On India's Loss Against South Africa

Indian cricket team captain Suryakumar Yadav faced a lot of criticism following his side's loss to South Africa in the second T20I encounter on Sunday. India looked on course to victory thanks to a brilliant five-wicket haul by Varun Chakaravarthy but South Africa mounted a late comeback to clinch the win. Former Pakistan cricket team star Basit Ali was extremely critical of Suryakumar's captaincy and said that it ultimately led to the defeat. He pointed out the fact that using Axar Patel would have been the right course of action but Suryakumar ended up giving just one over to the all-rounder.

Hardik Pandya Faces Huge Trolling For "Enjoy From Other End" Message To Arshdeep Singh

Indian cricket team all-rounder Hardik Pandya faced massive trolling on social media for his message to Arshdeep Singh during the second T20I encounter against South Africa on Sunday. India suffered a massive batting collapse but Hardik played a rather slow knock of 39 from 45 deliveries to steady the innings. During his stay at the innings, he ended up batting with Arshdeep who played 6 balls and scored 7 runs. In the 19th over of the innings, Arshdeep took a single and the stump-mic caught Hardik saying "Enjoy from the other end now". That is exactly what happened as Hardik played the remaining 10 balls of the innings.

Sanju Samson Registers Embarrassing Record After Two Consecutive T20I Tons

Sanju Samson registered an embarrassing record after the Indian cricket team opener was dismissed for a three-ball duck during the second T20I encounter against South Africa in Gqeberha on Sunday. Samson was high on confidence ahead of the match as he became the first Indian ever to score two consecutive centuries in T20Is. However, his stay at the crease was quite short on Sunday as he was clean-bowled by Marco Jansen. This was Samson's fourth duck in T20Is in 2024 - the most by any Indian batter in a calendar year. Yusuf Pathan, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli all had 3 in a single year.

"IPL Bully": Fans Slam Abhishek Sharma After Yet Another Failure vs South Africa In 2nd T20I

India T20I opener Abhishek Sharma received a significant amount of criticism on social media as he was dismissed for just 4 runs in the second T20I against South Africa in Gqeberha. Apart from one century against Zimbabwe on his second-ever T20I, Abhishek has failed to get going. In fact, the 24-year-old has not crossed the 20-run mark in eight of his nine T20I innings. Fans on social media pointed out Abhishek's inconsistency, and went on to question whether he deserved his spot in the India XI over other players like Ruturaj Gaikwad.
