After a ruling win over Australia, the Rohit Sharma-drove Indian cricket crew currently faces Afghanistan in New Delhi on Wednesday. The main match was played on a Chennai track which perpetual bob and stroke-production looked troublesome. Notwithstanding, the Arun Jaitley Arena in New Delhi created north of 700 runs in the main match that it has facilitated up to this point. South Africa scored 428/5 batting first. In answer, Sri Lanka oversaw 326 runs. Remembering that, previous India cricket crew star Sanjay Manjrekar feels that Ravichandran Ashwin may not track down a spot in the XI.
“Except if there is a convincing explanation, I don’t figure Hardik Pandya ought to be your third seamer. In the event that he’s the third seamer, I’m certain he feels the tension. In the event that the pitch looks like the one from the South Africa-Sri Lanka game, which was a batting heaven with no help for spinners, it’s suspicious that Ashwin will be remembered for the playing XI on such a surface,” Sanjay Manjrekar said on Star Sports.
“India will expand their batting profundity except if they accept they can beat Afghanistan with amazing speed on this level track. In any case, they have previously played their hand from the get-go On the planet Cup. They are not exactly anxious to lose one player. Assuming that is precisely the same surface we get in Delhi, the change I see is either Shardul Thakur or Mohammed Shami.”
Previous Indian cricketer Ajay Jadeja, filling in as the guide for the Afghanistan group in the ICC Cricket World Cup, remarked on the momentous headway Afghanistan has made in a moderately short range. He underscored the requirement for the group to acquire insight in batting for broadened periods, whether in Test matches or ODIs.
India will take on Afghanistan at Arun Jaitley Arena in Delhi on Wednesday.
Conversing with ANI, Jadeja said that Afghanistan has gained a fast headway in a brief timeframe and he feels honored to work with such “exceptional players”.
“My experience has been perfect. However it has been scarcely 4-5 days since I joined, yet it has been great. These are a few truly unique individuals. You can take a gander at excursion of other cricket crews and how much years they took to reach where they are today, yet this group has gained a ton of headway in a speedy time. I feel honored to have this open door,” said Jadeja.
Jadeja brought up that the Afghanistan group’s courageous way to deal with the game stands apart the most about them.
“The principal thing that strikes me is their methodology towards the game. Their valor sticks out. Their twist bowling (comprising of Rashid Khan, Noor Ahmed, Mujeeb ur Rahman), the whole world knows how great it is. Indeed, even our two seamers (counting Fazalhaq Farooqi) are noteworthy. They are all sought after overall in different associations. The experience expected to bat longer, be it in Tests or 50-over design is as yet something should have been dealt with in light of the fact that they don’t be able to make it happen so frequently,” said the previous Indian player.
On the impending match among India and Afghanistan, he said that the match is going to he exceptional.
“Each World Cup coordinate is energizing yet now that I am with Afghanistan, the coordinate with India will be extraordinary. It is an inclination I have never experienced. I can’t communicate it,” he said.
