Virat Kohli is not in form at the moment, and is playing at number 3 in difficult conditions. After stumps on the second day, New Zealand took a lead of 134 runs over India. On the other hand, if we tell you the condition of this match, after bowling out Team India for 46 runs, New Zealand has scored 180 runs at the loss of 3 wickets after 50 overs at the time of stumps on the second day in the first innings.

Sanjay Manjrekar wants to see Mohammed Shami playing in the Indian team as soon as possible, gives important advice to the selectors

However, before the start of this series, there was a possibility that Shami would make a comeback to cricket through this series, because he was last seen playing against Australia in the World Cup last year. He had become fit before the series against the Kiwi team, but at the last moment due to swelling in his knee, he was ruled out of this tour. Captain Rohit Sharma has also given a statement regarding this recently. On the other hand, Shami is going to be an important bowler during India’s Border-Gavaskar Trophy (BGT) Test series on Australia tour. But now former Indian player and well-known cricket commentator Sanjay Manjrekar has given a big statement regarding Shami’s return to Team India. Sanjay Manjrekar gave a big statement Let us tell you that recently in a special interview with Crictracker, Manjrekar said about Shami – I would say that you should only pay attention to his physical fitness. There is no need to focus on match fitness. If he is physically fit and if he feels he can bowl 30 overs per innings, then go with Shami straight away. Manjrekar further said- If you see his performance, he does not work hard physically. His magic lies in his final bowling action, he has very good wrists. Therefore, there are very few bowlers like him. Bowlers like Shami, even with a body of 70% fitness, trouble the top class batsmen. He is exactly like that. If he doesn’t bowl at home, and passes the fitness test, he should be in the team. And not just in the team, but also in the playing eleven.

See this post of Sanjay Manjrekar So, in the post match presentation with ESPN Cricinfo after the stumps of the second day of the Kanpur Test match, Manjrekar said – Every captain has a vision keeping in mind the bowlers he has. There is nothing wrong in this, because captains trust some bowlers more. I have noticed, especially not in this series, when it comes to spin, Rohit likes Ashwin a bit more. On the other hand, if we give information about the ongoing second Test match at Green Park Stadium, today on 28th September, due to rain, the second day’s play could not even start. At stumps on the first day, after 35 overs, Bangladesh have scored 107 runs in the first innings.

But one thing that came out today was that he is a bowler who has no weaknesses – whatever the opposition, the condition of the pitch, and that is really the best way to test his greatness.” Let us tell you that Bumrah completed his 400th wicket by dismissing Mushfiqur Rahim in the first innings.

Former player Sanjay Manjrekar has given his opinion on his form. According to Sanjay Manjrekar, KL Rahul has a bit of difficulty in batting even when the match is in his favor. Sanjay Manjrekar told ESPNcricinfo, ‘This has been the story of KL Rahul. It is a good thing that he has always played very good innings at the Test level, but this has not been seen in the last few matches. His innings was also very bad in the match being played against Bangladesh. This was seen with me too in the second phase of my career when everything was going well. KL Rahul has scored many great centuries but at an average of 34. He has scored not one or two but many centuries and that too in difficult situations but the average of 34 describes his game and the same has been seen today as well. Ravichandran Ashwin scored a more important century for the Indian team Ravichandran Ashwin batted brilliantly for India and scored 113 runs in the first innings.

“How easily India leave Kuldeep Yadav out” : Sanjay Manjrekar

Former Indian batsman Sanjay Manjrekar is surprised by Rohit Sharma’s decision to leave out spinner Kuldeep Yadav for the first Test against Bangladesh at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Sanjay Manjrekar and Kuldeep Yadav. (Image Source: Twitter/Getty Images) The first match of the 2-match Test series between India and Bangladesh has started on September 19. Former Indian batsman Sanjay Manjrekar is surprised by Rohit Sharma’s decision to leave out spinner Kuldeep Yadav for the first Test against Bangladesh at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Let us tell you that the Indian team has opted for a combination of three fast bowlers and two spinners for the first Test match in which Kuldeep is not there. The pitch and conditions usually demand three spinners. Always two experienced spinners – Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja retain their place, while either Kuldeep Yadav or Axar Patel plays as the third spinner. However, this time Team India did not prefer any secondary spinner as right-arm fast bowler Akash Deep has found a place in the team. Sanjay Manjrekar expressed his displeasure “It’s amazing how easily India leave Kuldeep Yadav out,” wrote Sanjay Manjrekar. Find it amazing how easily India drops a Kuldeep Yadav.#INDvBAN — Sanjay Manjrekar (@sanjaymanjrekar) September 19, 2024 Kuldeep Yadav has been in and out of the Test team since his debut in 2017. After being dropped from the playing XI despite taking eight wickets in the series opener against Bangladesh in 2022, the spinner returned to the team for the home series against England in early 2024. He played four consecutive matches and took 19 wickets in the series and also gave some useful performances in the lower order, due to which he can be considered a favorite over Axar Patel in terms of selection. “If Bangladesh bowls good spin, it will be a little difficult for India to beat them” – Sanjay Manjrekar “In Indian conditions you can’t make a green pitch that is seam friendly. Indian batting has also had a bit of trouble on turning pitches and with three spinners, if Bangladesh bowl well India might find it a bit difficult to beat them,” Manjrekar told ESPNcricinfo ahead of the first Test.

However, Rohit, Kohli and Bumrah have played only 59%, 61% and 34% of these matches respectively. Manjrekar believes that all three players have got enough rest. In such a situation, all three should have been selected for the Duleep Trophy. India has played 249 international matches in the last 5 years. Rohit has played only 59% of them. Virat has played 61% and Bumrah has played 34%. I see them as India players who have been rested, they could have been selected for the Duleep Trophy. India has played 249 international matches in the last 5 years. Rohit has played only 59% of those. Virat 61% & Bumrah 34%. I see them as well rested India players.
