BCCI Asked To Name New Coach For T20Is, Ex Star Wants Gautam Gambhir Relieved
Former India spinner Harbhajan Singh has urged the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) to look at the possibility of having different coaches for Test and limited overs cricket. Currently, Gautam Gambhir is the all-format head coach of the team, having replaced Rahul Dravid at the helm last year. Harbhajan feels that having different coaches will allow both individuals to prepare for an assignment in a better way. He also suggested that having a single coach can lead to mental and physical fatigue since the individual is constantly travelling with the team. "Because your coach also needs time to prepare for a series. Like five Tests against Australia, then in England, then elsewhere. So the coach can prepare and set out what his team should be. The same goes for a white-ball coach. He will need time to prepare as well. If you overwork one coach for the whole year, he, too has a family and responsibilities. Traveling constantly with family isn't easy. So yes, if you ask me, splitting red-ball and white-ball coaching is a good move," Harbhajan told India Today. Harbhajan also suggested that if India can have different teams for different formats, they should also explore the idea of a coach each for Test cricket and limited-overs format. "I feel if it can be implemented, there is nothing wrong in it. You have different teams and different players for formats. If we can do it, it's a good option. It will reduce workload for everyone, including the coaches. So if it can happen, it isn't a bad option. The coach knows that focus is on T20 cricket," he added. Harbhajan said that someone like Ashish Nehra could be looked upon as a potential candidate to coach the T20I team. "Say if Ashish Nehra is the T20 coach, then he knows that his job is to make the Indian team champions in the T20 format, and Rahul Dravid knows he has to work on how the Indian team can be No.1 in Tests and ODIs," said Harbhajan.

"Karun Nair At No.3 I Didn't Agree With": Ex-India Star's Blunt View. Names Replacement
Former Indian cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar suggested that Sai Sudharsan should have been given more chances to play at number 3 in the Indian batting order, especially considering the favourable conditions of flat pitches and a weak English bowling attack. He expresses disagreement with the team management's decision to go with Karun Nair at number 3 after giving Sudharsan one chance in the first of five Test match series against England last month. In a video posted by ESPNcricinfo on X, Sanjay Manjrekar said, "Sai Sudharsan was always my number 3 after the first Test match, there was promise shown with 30 runs. And when you have flat pitches and one of England's weakest bowling attacks, you want to play a young player so Karun Nair at number 3 three I didn't agree with, maybe the team management might just want to prove a point that we were backing the right horse and give him one more match that's something happening with team management but I would like to see Sai sudharsan at number 3." Sai Sudharsan made his Test debut in the series opener against England, where he played at no. 3 as Indian skipper Shubman Gill batted at no. 4 after the veteran batter Virat Kohli announced his retirement from Test cricket earlier this year, who batted at that position for a decade. Sudharsan was dismissed for 0 in the first innings followed by a decent 30 runs in the second, he was dropped from the playing 11 in the second fixture and Karun Nair who batted at no.6 was promoted to no.3. Nair failed to perform in the ongoing England series, making only 131 runs in six innings at an average of 21.83 and a best score of 40. India will clash against England in the fourth Test starting from 23 July. The Men in Blue are currently 1-2 down in the five-match series after losing the third Test at Lord's by just 22 runs, despite a fighting effort by the tailenders and Ravindra Jadeja while chasing 193.

Best hits of a teen
Cricket eventually ended up becoming his thing. Growing up in Melbourne, the city of Brett Lee, James Pattinson, Scott Boland and the likes, he wanted to become a fast bowler. However, soon Vishwa realised spin would be a better option for him, and invariably in the land of Shane Warne, he opted for leg-spin. He made a steady rise up the ranks and even toured India as part of the Australia U19 side, playing a Youth Test against India U19 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai, in front of his family. India U19 won the first game, but Vishwa impressed with a four-fer and a three-fer in that match. In the lead-up to the 2024 Indian Premier League, Vishwa was also a net bowler for Chennai Super Kings. For someone whose first memory of watching Test cricket was the India-Australia 2011 Boxing Day Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, both the MCG and Chepauk remain special. The teenager, who plays for Dandenong Cricket Club in the Victorian Premier Cricket Competition, spends most of the Australian summer in cricket grounds, honing his skills and taking wickets. During the off-season, he frequently visits Chennai for training and upskilling himself. 'I think from 11 or 12, I have been training here. I first went to the Cricket Drome academy, and I worked with Sridharan Sriram, who used to work with the Australian team. Afterwards, I also worked with a few spin coaches like Siva Prakasam,' he shares.
