How Hardik Pandya twist corrected India’s selection glitch

The injury to Hardik Pandya during the game against Bangladesh prompted the Indian think-tank to reassess their team selection. Mohammed Shami was initially overlooked for Shardul Thakur. However, Pandya's absence exposed the bowling weakness, leading to Thakur being dropped. The team management's cautious mindset of picking Thakur as an insurance player compromised the quality of the bowling attack. The injury forced the team to make necessary changes, avoiding the tricky task of altering a winning combination. Shami's impressive performance after being given a chance highlights the importance of his skills. from Sports News: Latest Cricket News, Live Match Scores & Sports News Headlines, Results & more https://ift.tt/Tka6EtY

ODI World Cup: Dominance of the bat

The ongoing ODI World Cup in India has seen a high number of runs due to several factors. The pitches have been placid, offering no turn, swing, or seam, making it difficult for bowlers. Batsmen have been playing in T20 mode, taking risks from the start and scoring centuries off 70-80 balls. Batsmen are also inventing new strokes and adding them to their repertoire. Additionally, there is a lack of skillful death bowlers in world cricket, with only a few like Jasprit Bumrah able to consistently bowl accurate yorkers. from Sports News: Latest Cricket News, Live Match Scores & Sports News Headlines, Results & more https://ift.tt/dZwgA9C
