"Even If You Are Test Captain...": Ex-India Star's Big Verdict On Shubman Gill
Former India cricketer Aakash Chopra believes that the upcoming Asia Cup 2025 selection will be one of the toughest in recent times, given the depth of talent at the Indian cricket circuit. "The depth of talent is so immense that even if you are a Test captain (Shubman Gill) and have shattered a lot of records, you are not a certainty in a different format. This is going to be a tough selection. We have won 17 out of the last 20 T20 matches we played," Chopra told ANI. When asked about pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah, Chopra praised him. "He is a generational talent and one of the best that the world has ever seen. If he is available for the Asia Cup and he plays the games that matter, he should be there," Chopra noted. The former opener, who has transitioned into commentary and analysis, also reflected on 'The Great Indian Cricket Show'. "I have played this sport a little bit, I claim to follow the sport religiously, even for me it is a bit of an eye-opener from time to time when you hear it from someone like Anil Kumble's mouth. I have shared the dressing room with him, the commentary box with him now, there are certain stories, and you say 'oh wow, this also happened, and I was there and I did not know.' So, the attempt is to go in that direction, talk about stories that have inspired a generation, but now go a little deeper, delve a little deeper," Chopra said. He added, "That is the idea which should cover all aspects, all spheres, whether it's the anecdotal part, whether that's the individual part, whether that's the event-specific part, whether we go into controversies. Indian cricket may have gone into turbulent times, but the attempt is to cover everything that is under the sun as far as Indian cricket is concerned."

‘We've got to think about Jasprit Bumrah for the next 2-3 years, not next series': Former Team India physio
India's Jasprit Bumrah celebrates with teammate Washington Sundar (PTI Photo/R Senthilkumar) Mumbai: At a time when there's a raging debate amongst former cricketers and journalists around India's ace pacer Jasprit Bumrah 's workload, following his appearance in just three out of five Tests in the recently held series in England to manage his workload, former Team India physio John Gloster has offered an interesting perspective. Replying to a question on whether Bumrah should be given leeway in choosing which games he would play in a series/tournament, Glosters said, 'Look, I know that's a very controversial topic at the moment, and I'll happily tackle most controversial topics. I think that the athlete at the end of the day knows themselves better than anybody.' Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! Speaking at a book launch at the Cricket Club of India on Monday, Gloster said, 'Most athletes these days who have good sports teams around them are taking advice from those people. But intuitively, most athletes know what's right and what's wrong. And he is a mature athlete. He's a smart individual who knows exactly what he's doing.' The 31-year-old Bumrah took 14 wickets in three Tests at 26.00 in the Tendulkar-Anderson Trophy, and was under fire for missing the crucial third and fifth Tests of the series due to workload management. Overall, Bumrah has taken 219 wickets in 48 Tests at 19.82, with 15 five-wicket hauls, and is set to feature in the Asia Cup , which Gloster felt 'should not be a problem, since the tournament will be played in a T20 format and Bumrah has to bowl only four overs in a match.' Making a pertinent point about the need to manage Bumrah's workload to ensure that he lasts for more years rather than just focusing on how he could play more and more matches in a series, which could put him at risk of burnout or injury, Gloster said, 'And I think nine times out of ten, mature athletes who have good support are going to make the right decisions. And what we need to think about is not Bumrah for the next series or the series after that. We've got to think about Bumrah for the next two to three years.' Poll How important is workload management for professional athletes? Very important Somewhat important Not important Unsure 'In Jasprit's case, he had significant success when he came back. With the type of injury that he had, or has, he always knew that there were going to be times when it would need to be managed differently in order for him to continue to have success and stay playing at the highest level. And it is through good counsel that he comes to terms with that.' Gloster pointed out that it was crucial in Bumrah's case that he received the right guidance in terms of his workload and injury management, which meant that a lot of times, there could be 'others taking decisions for him,' in order for him to have a long and successful career in international cricket. 'He knows that his career and the length of his career, his sporting longevity, is going to be through sound counsel and sound advice. This is what it's going to be like. And he knows that there are going to be situations where others are going to have to make decisions for him in order for him to have the best and longest career that he's going to have,' Gloster said.

Confident India won't play Pakistan in Asia Cup 2025: Kedar Jadhav
Former India cricketer Kedar Jadhav has urged the national team to boycott their matches against Pakistan in the Asia Cup 2025, set to begin on 9 September in the UAE. The former Maharashtra and Chennai Super Kings batter added that he was confident the high-profile clash would not take place as Indian cricketers, including Harbhajan Singh, have called on the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) to boycott fixtures against Pakistan in response to the terror attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, and the cross-border tensions that there had been speculation that India might withdraw from the Asia Cup, the team decided to participate, albeit at a neutral venue — the UAE. India and Pakistan are scheduled to face off in the group stage on 14 August, with the possibility of meeting as many as three times in the tournament if both sides reach the final. 'I don't think the Indian team should play. I also believe India won't play. Wherever India face them (Pakistan), they will win anyway. But this match should definitely not go ahead. I can say with confidence that it won't happen,' Jadhav told July-August, India boycotted matches against Pakistan, including a semi-final, during the World Championship of Legends — a T20 competition featuring retired cricketers in the United India captain Sourav Ganguly, however, maintained that the Asia Cup fixture would go ahead if the government granted permission.'India-Pakistan cricket has always depended on government approval. If the government allows the match, it will be played. I have said before that terrorism must stop. But if the government gives the go-ahead, the game should go on,' Ganguly had said last 22 April terrorist attack in Pahalgam claimed the lives of 26 civilians, mostly tourists, after gunmen opened fire, allegedly targeting victims based on their religious identity. The Resistance Front (TRF), also known as Kashmir Resistance, initially claimed responsibility but later denied involvement as tensions between India and Pakistan escalated. The National Investigation Agency (NIA) identified TRF chief Sheikh Sajjad Gul as the mastermind behind the retaliation, India launched Operation Sindoor on 7 May, striking nine terrorist infrastructure sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. The operation marked a sharp military escalation, including cross-border attacks on Pakistani bases, before hostilities were scaled back under a bilateral ceasefire agreement. Later in May, India sent seven multi-party delegations to 33 global capitals, including Washington, to highlight Pakistan's links to terrorism and gather international and Pakistan have not played a bilateral cricket series since 2012-13. However, the two sides have continued to meet in tournaments organised by the International Cricket Council (ICC) and the Asian Cricket Council (ACC). After India refused to travel to Pakistan for the Champions Trophy, the ICC ensured that tournaments hosted by either nation would follow a hybrid model to accommodate political sensitivities.- EndsTune InTrending Reel
