“Yet To Learn…”: Wasim Jaffer Explains Why Young India Star Struggles In T20 Cricket | Cricket News

[ad_1] Former India batter Wasim Jaffer has backed veteran spinner Yuzvendra Chahal to retain his place in the playing for the third and final T20I against New Zealand. After registering a narrow win in the second T20I, the hosts now eye a series win, having already sweeped the ODIs 3-0 against the Kiwis. On being asked if young speedster Umran Malik should replace Chahal in the playing XI, Jaffer suggested that the pacer is yet to learn the traits in order to succeed in the format."It would be better to have Yuzvendra Chahal as New Zealand struggle against spinners and if there is a wrist-spinner, India must utilize it. As I mentioned previously, Umran Malik struggles in T20 cricket. He is yet to learn the variations needed to succeed in this format. So, in that way, Chahal is a better ...

India’s Predicted XI vs New Zealand, 3rd T20I: Will Shubman Gill Make Way For Prithvi Shaw? | Cricket News

[ad_1] Team India registered a six-wicket victory against New Zealand in the second T20I in Lucknow on Sunday to level the three-match series 1-1.

[ad_1] Prithvi Shaw had a blistering run in domestic cricket this year© TwitterAfter a crushing loss in the first T20I against New Zealand, India edged past the Mitchell Santner-led visitors in the second T20I to level the three-match series. The Hardik Pandya-led side will hope for the winning momentum to continue in the decider too, which will be in Ahmedabad on Wednesday. In both the T20Is, opener Shubman Gill failed to leave a mark, getting out for scores of 7 and 11. It is far cry from the terrific form that he displayed in the ODI format recently, where he scored a double ton and a ton against the Blackcaps.Former Pakistan spinnr Danish Kaneria believes that Indian management can give a chance to Prithvi Shaw, who is also part of the squad, in place of Gill."You've seen how Shubman...
