Shubman Gill To Miss Asia Cup Due To West Indies Test Commitments? Report Makes Big Claim
Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan are in the fray for selection in India's Asia Cup squad, which is expected to be picked in the third week of August. Jaiswal and Test captain Gill have not featured in the last few T20 assignments owing to a packed calendar but their one-month rest period post the five-Test series against England is expected to make them available for the continental tournament. As per sources in the BCCI, the national selectors are keeping options open even as the Test series against the West Indies at home starts in less than a week's time if India qualify for the final of the continental T20 event which is slated on September 28. The first Test against the West Indies at Ahmedabad starts on October 2. It must be mentioned that Jaiswal scored 559 runs at a strike-rate of 160 in the last edition of the IPL while Gill had 650 runs in 15 games at a healthy strike- rate of 155-plus. Gill's opening partner at Gujarat Titans, Sudharsan was the 'Orange Cap' winner with 759 runs at a SR of 156. "There is a five week break and with no cricket around, these three should walk into any T20 squad despite stupendous show by Sanju Samson and Abhishek Sharma. In 21 days in Asia Cup, if one plays till final, there are 6 T20 games and that's not much of a workload. But obviously with 17 member squads allowed for the Asia Cup, selectors will weigh options carefully," a BCCI source told PTI on conditions of anonymity. Keeping the tracks of UAE in mind and also the T20 World Cup in six months time, Jaiswal, Gill and Sudharsan should logically form the core of the top order. Sudharsan, who made his ODI debut in late 2023 has been in tremendous T20 form. Another important talking point is the availability of pace spearheads Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj. Both bowlers have been managed carefully after an extended workload across formats and are expected to undergo fitness assessment before the selection meeting.

Acrimonious series? India and England players meet and greet to celebrate an intense summer
Acrimony followed the sensationally concluded India-England Test series at every juncture, but the fellowship of cricket suffering never got eroded. Battered, bruised bodies and satisfied souls of fighting cricketers from both the Indian and England teams assembled on Monday, to end the series on a note of mutual respect and bonhomie. A memorable series where banter got bruising but not brutal, received a calm debriefing as war wounds were bandaged. The English team invited the Indians over for the customary end-of-series tradition of after the 2-2 parity was reached. They might have been involved in fierce fights, not ceding an inch but once The Oval emptied out, it was scenes of camaraderie and asking after the well-being of the wounded. A team official told The Indian Express that while every Indian walked up to Chris Woakes who came to bat with a hand in a brace, admiring him for his courage, several English cricketers asked after how Rishabh Pant had been doing, given his broken toe. Both sides had given the world iconic images of broken warriors walking out to play their designated role, something that was appreciated most by the opposition. The meet and greet also saw India's young batsmen queue up and listen with wide attention to Joe Root talk about how his batting keeps getting better by the day. 'He was asked how he has sustained top form for so long and many things about his batting,' the team official narrated. English cricket, even when clubs or counties play, wraps up proceedings with both dressing rooms converging for a common limbering down of emotional intensity. And after battling for 25 days, the two teams ensured that all Day 5 wrinkles were neatly ironed out exchanging warm respect. The day's hero, and a rather popular figure even amongst opponents, Mohammed Siraj was the life of the after-party, and all controversies and grudges got buried with the final meet-up before the Indians flew out on Tuesday. The rivalry – though incidents keep cropping up – isn't particularly bitter to start with, and through the series, even as the world thought controversies would brim over, both sets of cricketers have professionally left events on the field. So even as Ben Stokes said nobody from either side was losing sleep over what was said, Prasidh Krishna who had a go at Root, clarified that the batsman was an ultimate legend, and no one could really hold onto any ill-will towards him. Similarly though Siraj's fiery eyes would light up several times in follow up, Root had maintained that his 'fake angriness', as hard as he tried, was never viewed as anything but a passionate performance by the English. India's mild mannered captain Shubman Gill isn't prone to trash talking anyway, and those like Yashasvi Jaiswal have even spent days picking the brains of Joe Root during the IPL gig at Rajasthan Royals. Gautam Gambhir and Brendon McCullum have both been massive figures at Kolkata Knight Riders, and the two teams though hosting some fiery characters, ensured they ended the memorable series on a note of friendship with a higher echelon of respect for the show they put up for the world. It was the next best thing to fairytale endings – 2-2, and two sets of happy cricketers who left it all out there and then enjoyed each other's company.
