India vs Australia: Four reasons why India have 5 left-handed batsmen in the top 7

Why are India packing their T20 batting line-up with left-handed batsmen? Since the tour of Ireland in mid-August, India’s top seven consists of at least five left-handers. The Indian Express understands that after the last edition of the IPL, the selection committee dwelled extensively on the winning formula adopted by recent winners and also on successful T20 teams worldwide.Two coaches Bharat Arun and Sridharan Sriram, who have mentored bowling units of India and Australia, point out the reasons for this leftward tilt. Some key personnel including the likes of Shubman Gill, Shreyas Iyer and Hardik Pandya have been missing in the ranks, but there is more to why the likes of Sanju Samson, Rahul Tripathi, Rajat Patidar have been overlooked for Yashasvi Jaiswal, Tilak Varma, Ishan Kishan...

‘Calculative’ Rinku Singh can do well in ODIs too: Chandrakant Pandit | Cricket News – Times of India

MUMBAI: So far in his nascent career, Rinku Singh has taken to international cricket like duck to water. In the ongoing T20Is series against Australia at home, the 26-year-old has chipped in vital camos-22 not out off 14 balls at Vizag, and 9-ball 31 not out at Thiruvananthapuram to provide more evidence of how dangerous he can be in T20 cricket. Can the man who till now has a strike rate of 216.94 and average of 128.00 in seven T20Is, do well in ODIs too? “Yes, he’s a very sensible cricketer.What I liked about him is that he’s a very calculative cricketer. If you talk to him, and if you watch his batting, you can see that he always plays with a calculative approach. He doesn’t just go (for his shots), but he has the belief that he can finish the game in the past one or two overs. And h...

Having gained a 2-0 lead with wins in Vishakhapatnam and Thiruvananthapuram, India will be looking to sweep the five-match T20I series against Australia in Guwahati.

How India had perfect T20 game with bat, with three quick-fire fifties and a blitz of a cameo

Batsmen in the T20 format look to be out in the middle for a good time, not necessarily a long time. It was what the Indians managed in the second game of the five-match series against Australia, a 44-run win giving them a 2-0 lead.Yashasvi Jaiswal (53 off 25 balls), Ishan Kishan (52 off 32) and Ruturaj Gaikwad (58 off 43) set up the innings before Rinku Singh (31 not out off 9), Suryakumar Yadav (19 off 10) and Tilak Varma (7 not out off 2) put the finishing touches for a mammoth score of 235/4. During the chase, the Indian bowlers didn’t need to do anything special, other than targeting the stumps and not giving the batsmen room to free their arms. The visitors had a promising start and then a threatening partnership between Marcus Stoinis (45 off 25 balls) and Tim David (37 off 22), ...

Learning how to finish games from Rinku Singh, says Tilak Varma

Tilak Varma made his India debut back in August, ahead of Rinku Singh’s maiden appearance for the national team. During the five-match T20I series against the West Indies, Tilak was India’s leading run scorer. But when it comes to finishing matches for his team, the southpaw suggests he is learning the art from Rinku. “I am learning how to finish games from Rinku as he is doing it consistently for India. I also want to do and hopefully in coming matches I will be doing that,” Tilak said ahead of India’s second T20I match against Australia in Thiruvananthapuram. It was Rinku who had seen the first T20I through for India earlier this week in Vishakhapatnam – wrapping up the highest ever T20I chase for India.

No open bus parade, no trophy reunion or public celebrations: Why Australia’s World Cup winners are yet to receive their champions’ welcome back home

Sunday marks a week since Pat Cummins and Co registered a glorious and heartbreaking – depending on which side of the grass you sit – win against India in the 2023 ODI World Cup final to win the title for an elusive sixth time. However, the winning side is due their share of celebrations back home. While some of the team members including skipper Pat Cummins arrived in Australia earlier this week, many including the final’s player of the match, Travis Head are still in India – playing a five-match T20I series. So is the World Cup trophy. Per The Sydney Morning Herald, Cricket Australia plans to bring the original piece of silverware in Sydney next week. However, that would mean the absence of Head, Glenn Maxwell, Steve Smith, Josh Inglis, and Adam Zampa from the celebrations. The planni...

Does India have bowlers who can finish games with the bat and where does Steve Smith fit for Australia?

The format may change, but some things in Indian cricket appear to remain the same. One of them is lack of batting depth; one can’t expect too many runs after No.7. This is what held Virat Kohli and KL Rahul back in the middle overs of last Sunday’s World Cup final, and it almost turned the tables on them in the first T20I against Australia in Vizag on Thursday. They needed 15 runs in 14 balls with five wickets in hand when skipper Suryakumar Yadav got out after a 42-ball 80, but the team almost managed to fluff its lines; had it not been for Rinku Singh’s presence in the middle, they probably would have lost, even against an Australian side missing its whole first-choice bowling attack. Surya, Rinku and Ishan Kishan ensured that India chased down their highest-ever successful chase in ...

Mukesh Kumar will be next Mohammad Shami – ‘junior Lalettan,’ says R Ashwin

India vs Australia tip-off XI: Tilak Varma to keep his place, Avesh Khan makes it to the XI and Kane Richardson into the mix

For the most part, the chase in the first T20I against Australia looked like a cakewalk for the Indian side until it wasn’t in the final moments of the game when they lost a few quick wickets. They eventually snatched the game by a whisker. Though Suryakumar Yadav’s side succeeded in chasing down the highest total for India in the format going into the second T20I at the Greenfield International Stadium in Thiruvananthapuram the hosts would be hoping to improve in both departments of the game. Though one might argue they have chased a massive total and the batting looks fine, it has come on the back of the side’s T20 talisman Suryakumar’s sublime knock yet again. Ishan Kishan chipped in with a mature knock along with Rinku Singh’s finishing touch but the remaining batters struggled. Th...
