  • India Vs South Africa Test: What Virat Kohli Must Answer
    3/20/2018 India vs South Africa Test: What Virat Kohli must answer India vs South Africa Test: What Virat Kohli must answer In the era of fake news, the fakest news may be that India is the best Test team in the world. SPORTS | Long-form | 12-01-2018 Print | Close RAHUL JAYARAM @rajayaram In the Newlands Test that ended on Monday (January 8), India were, despite their first innings batting collapse, in a good position to scare South Africa. In the second half of the Test, India’s bowlers get them back into a fighting position, and their vaunted batting line-up was to face a bowling line-up on testing conditions. Without Dale Steyn. India responded by invoking the history of Indian batting in overseas conditions: Triggering the psychic memory and muscle memory of collapse. Only a couple of batsmen showed the technique and temperament to face genuine pace bowling on a wicket where getting onto the front foot was far from easy. The familiarity of the Indian response must be a matter of disgrace for Indian cricket authorities, managers and the selection board. This tour was long scheduled and it wasn’t unimaginable to expect bouncy wickets. In the fourth innings, India did not even put a fight. So, in one game, and in a mini- innings, the “form” that Murali Vijay, and in particular Shikhar Dhawan and Rohit https://www.dailyo.in/single-story.php?id=MjE2OTc= 1/8 3/20/2018 India vs South Africa Test: What Virat Kohli must answer Sharma had come with to South African shores on the back of performances against a bottom-scraping Sri Lanka, had been busted.

  • Afghanistan Vs. India 2018
    SOURAV GANGULY Published on 14.6.18 Opportunity for Afghanistan to test themselves The Afghan cricketers have already played a few formats of the game but they will realize that this is the best and the biggest, the one that separates the men from the boys. There is talent in Afghanistan cricket, with the exploits of Rashid Khan already being a big talking point, and I am sure that all of them are looking forward to making a mark in Test cricket. This is a historic moment for their country, and they should feel happy that they are starting off against one of the top teams of the game, because it is always best to test oneself against the best in the business. Besides, it will also help Afghanistan learn exactly where they stand in terms of this format. India will be without Virat Kohli but, even then, India are a strong side and the Afghan players will have an opportunity to check out their own skills. If I were an Afghan cricketer, I would like to see this as an opportunity. There is a very fine line between pressure and opportunity and the Afghan boys should tread the path of opportunity to test themselves out on the big stage. Without any doubt India will be the favourites in this one-off Test but the Afghans will be looking for some turn in the pitch to control the hosts because the biggest strength of this team is spin and, that too, accurate spin. India has at the helm Ajinkya Rahane who led exceptionally well in Dharamsala against Australia some time ago.
