India vs Pakistan – “Form Is Brilliant”: Rohit Sharma On Virat Kohli | Cricket News

[ad_1] File photo of Virat Kohli© AFPIndia captain Rohit Sharma's biggest takeaway from his team's five-wicket loss against arch-rivals Pakistan in the Asia Cup Super 4 match is learning about the mindset required to defend tricky totals under pressure. Pakistan beat India by five wickets as they chased down the target of 182 with a ball to spare.The Indian captain said that a total of 181 was always a good one and he didn't think that they were 10-15 short. "It's a good learning for us. I thought it was a good score. Any pitch, any conditions when you get 180 it's a good score," Rohit said after the match."We got to learn a lot today - what sort of mindset we need to have when defending a score like that. Like I said you've got to give credit to Pakistan. They've played better than us,"...

“Can’t Continue”: Former Pacer Slams Indian Top 3’s “Lackadaisical Approach” In T20Is | Cricket News

[ad_1] File photo of KL Rahul© AFPThe Indian T20 team's top order has come under criticism recently as they have failed to really fire. The top order batters have either not been able to put on big scores or have scored too sedately, and they have in recent times been helped by the fireworks provided by the middle-order players like Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya. Former India pacer Dodda Ganesh took to Twitter to slam the top order for their approach and said it "simply can't continue"."Can't expect SKY and the other middle order batsmen to bail you out every time for the top three's lackadaisical approach," he tweeted."High time the elephant in the room is addressed. This simply can't continue," he added.Can't expect SKY and the other middle order batsmen to bail you out every time...

India vs Pakistan, Asia Cup: Focus On Top-Order Approach and Avesh Khan | Cricket News

[ad_1] The famed top-order would be desperate for a course correction while the bowling attack could be rejigged as India aim for a 'Sunday Encore' against Pakistan in an Asia Cup 'Super 4s' clash. If top-order's Powerplay philosophy is a problem, the inexperience of Avesh Khan at the death is no less a worry as the team management may need to revamp the bowling attack against a strong Pakistan side which is coming into the game after demolishing Hong Kong by more than 150 runs.With no Ravindra Jadeja available in this game, Axar Patel seems a straightaway replacement but the team combination does take a hit in the absence of Saurashtra all-rounder.In the last game against Pakistan, head coach Rahul Dravid promoted Jadeja to number four to keep the left-right combination going in the top...

“Virat Kohli Can Never Become Rohit Sharma Or Suryakumar Yadav”: Ex-Pakistan Captain | Cricket News

[ad_1] File photo of Virat Kohli© AFPThere has been a lot of talk regarding Virat Kohli's form this year, but so far, the right-handed batter has come up with good performances in the ongoing Asia Cup. He first scored 35 runs against Pakistan and then he backed it up with an unbeaten 59-run knock against Hong Kong. However, former Pakistan captain Rashid Latif has criticised Kohli, saying he is not a "great" T20 player, and he can never become Rohit Sharma or Suryakumar Yadav."Virat Kohli has never been a great T20 player. We compare him to the likes of Kane Williamson, Joe Root or Steve Smith but none of them have been match-winning players in T20s. These all take the game along, playing an anchor role. Virat Kohli is a great ODI player. He cannot become Rohit Sharma or Suryakumar Yadav...
