India have won three consecutive matches after the first defeat and have sealed the series 3-1. Zimbabwe presented a bitter welcome to Team India but the guests have shocked the homies in each and every contest after that.

Losing the first match, India were on the backfoot with a young team taking all the load of expectations on their back. Sikander Raza and his boys were all over the Indian Team in the first T20I but just until the second T20I when the World saw the Abhishekb Sharma Show.



India won the second, third, and fourth T20I in a row, and all three with true domination. The fourth T20I, where India won by 10 wickets marked the series to the Indian Team.

IND vs ZIM 3rd T20I: With the series in the balance after two T20Is, India are all set to lock horns against the host Zimbabwe in the third T20I at the Harare Sports Club, Harare. With Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shivam Dube back in the contingent, here is the prediction of the Strongest India Playing 11 for IND vs ZIM 3rd T20I.



<div class="wp-block-rank-math-toc-block" id="rank-math-toc"><nav><ul><li class=""><a href="#ind-vs-zim-3rd-t-20-i-strongest-india-playing-11-prediction">IND vs ZIM 3rd T20I: Strongest India Playing 11 Prediction</a><ul><li class=""><a href="#probable-india-playing-11">Probable India Playing 11</a></li></ul></li></ul></nav></div>



India faced a humiliating defeat in the very first encounter against the home team Zimbabwe. A number of players failed in that match and the team, which was also referred to as the future of Indian Cricket got bundled out for just 102 runs and lost the match by 13 runs.



It just took the next 20 hours to turn the table completely. The duck debutant Abhishek Sharma in the 1st T20I scored a ton with a strike rate of over 200 and India smashed a total of 234 runs in 20 overs.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/07/gill-bowled-jpg.webp" alt="Raza Stars as Zimbabwe Upset India In 1st T20I by 13 Runs | IND vs ZIM 1st T20I" class="wp-image-142604" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Raza Bamboozled Gill (Associate Press)</figcaption></figure>



The chase was never going to be easy for Zimbabwe and in the end, they were trailing behind with 100 runs. This was an ideal team game and skipper Shubman Gill was happy with the performances. 



Now, the third T20I is just on the doorstep and the good news for India is that Shivam Dube and Yashasvi Jaiswal are back in the squad and set to get their names in the starting 11. Below is the prediction of the Strongest India Playing 11 for IND vs ZIM 3rd T20I:



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="ind-vs-zim-3rd-t-20-i-strongest-india-playing-11-prediction">IND vs ZIM 3rd T20I: Strongest India Playing 11 Prediction</h2>



Abhishek Sharma got a 100 in just his second international game and he is really in a good knick. Meanwhile, with Yashasvi Jaiswal back in the squad, he also put up his name for that spot. It now depends on the selection committee and skipper, whom they are looking to invest in more for the bigger tournaments coming forward. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/07/3-Opening-Combinations-India-can-try-in-Zimbabwe-T20Is-1024x532.webp" alt="3 Opening Combinations India can try in Zimbabwe T20Is" class="wp-image-142218" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal to open in IND vs ZIM 3rd T20I?</figcaption></figure>



Shubman Gill has been holding on the second end and it seems like he is going to be there to control the pace of the innings. India cricket team is looking at Ruturaj Gaikwad to fill the KOHLI SHOES in the shortest format and he is most likely to get a pass on the test. 



Shivam Dube may get his name in at number four. He is most likely going to replace Sai Sudharsan in the playing 11. He will be followed by Riyan Parag at number 5. Parag has really impressed the Indian cricket board members and his ability to bowl and bat might be really helpful now in the turning-slow pitches.

Rinku Singh shall continue at number 6 and Dhruv Jurel to bat at number 7. These two men can hit the ball out of the park and their finishing abilities are the reason they are batting late in the order.



The spin duo of Washington Sunder and Ravi Bishnoi is doing a great job in the middle overs and their presence also gives the batting depth to the side. 



Then the two bowlers in the form of Mukesh Kumar and Avesh Khan and this makes the Indian side look more dangerous than it was in the second T20I. The pitches are getting slow match by match so two pacers with Shivam Dube in the backup are more than enough for the matches.

Under the leadership of Babar Azam, the team fell short of expectations at the 2024 T20 World Cup, hosted in the West Indies and the United States of America (USA). The Men in Green were eliminated during the group stage of the ICC tournament, with a significant early defeat to the USA in their opening match.

Now, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) have announced the white ball schedule of the Pakistan tour of Zimbabwe which was pre-scheduled before the T20 World Cup 2024. The bilateral series between the two nations is set to commence on 24 November with an ODI game.



Pakistan team is set to play a three-match ODI series first and then followed by a three-match T20I series and all the matches of the tour are scheduled to be played at the Queens Sports Club stadium in Bulawayo in Zimbabwe.

PCB chairman Mohsin Naqvi said on AIR that this series is going to be vital for their strategy in future course of action. He said "These series are a vital part of our strategy to strengthen Pakistan?s position in international cricket and ensure long-term sustainability for the sport in our country. We deeply value the participation of these teams and players, who will bring immense talent and competitive spirit to our fields."

IND vs ZIM 2nd T20I: India have lost the first T20I of the five-match series and Zimbabwe has pushed back the World Champions 1-down in the opening match of the series. Here are the 2 possible changes that India might make for IND vs ZIM 2nd T20I.



<div class="wp-block-rank-math-toc-block" id="rank-math-toc"><nav><ul><li class=""><a href="#2-changes-india-might-make-for-ind-vs-zim-2nd-t-20-i">2 Changes INDIA Might Make for IND vs ZIM 2nd T20I</a></li><li class=""><a href="#indi-as-likely-playing-11-for-ind-vs-zim-2nd-t-20-i">INDIA's likely Playing 11 for IND vs ZIM 2nd T20I</a></li></ul></nav></div>



India posted a mediocre batting display on 6th July at Harare Sports Club, Harare. They would have been happy to see just 116 on the board but Zimbabwe assured that it was enough for them to seal the deal.



Three players got to wear the Indian cap for the first time in the opening match of the series- IPL star Abhishek Sharma, Riyan Parag and Dhruv Jurel. All three had a debut not to remember. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/07/raza-jpg.webp" alt="Raza Stars as Zimbabwe Upset India In 1st T20I by 13 Runs | IND vs ZIM 1st T20I" class="wp-image-142605" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Raza celebrating Gill's wicket (Associate Press)</figcaption></figure>



India bowled first and apart from Khaleel Ahmed who went expensive and wicketless, all the bowlers were up to the mark. Bishnoi took 4 men down, Washington was economical and got 2 wickets and other bowlers contributed too to restrict the home team under 115. 



The chase started horribly as India lost their four wickets inside the batting powerplay with just 22 runs on the board. Shubman Gill(31), Washington Sunder (27) and Avesh Khan (16) were the only three batters to cross the 10-run mark.



Bowling was up to the mark but it was batting that let the Indian team down. There is a window for a couple of changes that can bring up the balance in the playing 11 of India.



Let's have a look at the 2 possible changes that India might make for IND vs ZIM 2nd T20I:



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="2-changes-india-might-make-for-ind-vs-zim-2nd-t-20-i">2 Changes INDIA Might Make for IND vs ZIM 2nd T20I</h2>



1- Sai Sudharsan IN, Abhishek Sharma OUT



Abhishek Sharma is, no doubt, an excellent player top of the order and he is one of the best aggressive batters at the opening spot but the Indian team has an experienced option against him and that is Sai Sudharsan. 



Sai has played for India in a 50-over game and he has delivered some great performances. Abhishek Sharma is, nevertheless, more lethal than Sai but the pitches there in Harare are a bit tacky and tricky so Sai would be a better option to bat.



2- Jitesh Sharma IN, Dhruv Jurel OUT



With almost a similar sort of skill set, the two wicketkeeper-batters Jitesh Sharma and Dhruv Jurel are having a bout for the wicketkeeping spot. Dhruv Jurel is a batter with better techniques but Jitesh Sharma's game is by power. 



At the number where these players are going to get chance to bat, most of the time, you need a power hitter and in that case, <a href="https://www.espncricinfo.com/cricketers/jitesh-sharma-721867">Jitesh</a> is a better option than Dhruv.

IND vs ZIM: A win to remember for Zimbabwe. The hosts Zimbabwe have defeated India in the first T20I by 13 runs at the Harare Sports Club. 



Sikandar Raza and the entire Zimbabwe were absolutely ecstatic with the last wicket fall. It felt like it was India's game after the first innings but what Zimbabwe bowlers did in the second innings was simply exceptional.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">IND vs ZIM Match Summary</h2>



Batting first, Zimbabwe got an early setback as Mukesh Kumar dismissed in-form Innocent Kaia in the first ball of the second over. Brian Bennett and Wessly Madhevere gave a good start to the team. 



Ravi Bishnoi then came to bowl the last over of the Powerplay and bowled out Brian and Madhevere in his second over. Wicketkeeper-batter Clive Madande played an important knockdown the order of 29 runs and his valiant efforts put Zimbabwe to 115 mark.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/07/jurel-jpg.webp" alt="Raza Stars as Zimbabwe Upset India In 1st T20I by 13 Runs | IND vs ZIM 1st T20I" class="wp-image-142603" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">IND vs ZIM: Dion Myers Cuts the Length Ball (Associate Press)</figcaption></figure>



Ravi Bishnoi was brilliant with the ball and so was Washington Sunder. Bishnoi picked up 4 wickets and Sunder took 2 at an economy of 2.80. It was all now on the batting and surely their eyes would have lit up as they have just 116 to chase in 120 balls.



Abhishek Sharma received his maiden call to the playing 11 and his debut was something he won't be too happy with. He got out in the first fourth ball of the innings without scoring. 



Shubman Gill held one end and wickets kept falling from the other end. India lost four wickets within the powerplay for just 28 runs. Skipper Gill played a 31-run knock he too got out after 10 overs when India were just 47 in total. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/07/gill-bowled-jpg.webp" alt="Raza Stars as Zimbabwe Upset India In 1st T20I by 13 Runs | IND vs ZIM 1st T20I" class="wp-image-142604" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">IND vs ZIM: Raza Bamboozled Gill (Associate Press)</figcaption></figure>



Avesh Khan played a cameo and pulled the lever towards India. He smoked 16 runs in 12 runs but Raza's excellence and <a href="https://www.espncricinfo.com/cricketers/tendai-chatara-425639">Chatara</a> picked up wickets in line again and left India hung on a thin wire. Washington Sunder was the last hope standing for India and he tried hard in the end but Zimbabwe were too good in the last overs and bundled out India under 102 runs. 



This IND vs ZIM game marked some shake in the record book. Let's take a look at the records and stats:

ZIM vs IND 1st T20I Dream11 Prediction: India tour of Zimbabwe 2024 is all set to kick start today with India Taking on the hosts in the first T20I at Harare Sports Club. With a young squad on both sides, it is quite hard to pick up the best fantasy 11 but here we are with the ZIM vs IND Dream11 Prediction, Small League and Grand League, Top Fantasy Picks, and Probable Playing 11s.

This is the time when T20 world champion India are on a big change. This phase is a bridge-like instance as a couple of experienced players have announced their retirement and the remaining players will have to pass the legacy to the young ones.



The Indian squad has Shubman Gill as their most experienced player and Washington Sunder as their most experience all-rounder. The top three will be a tricky decision for Shubman as the shoes of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are too big to fill up.

Sikandar Raza has got the leadership of the Zimbabwe T20I team against the T20 World Champion nation and it is going to be a good stage for them to put up their show against a less-experienced Indian side.

The wickets at Harare Sports Club offer a balanced playing field, providing opportunities for both batters and bowlers. While scoring runs may be relatively straightforward, early in the game, fast bowlers can find some assistance, with spinners becoming more effective as the match progresses. However, in T20 Internationals (T20Is), the wicket tends to remain consistent throughout the game.



The average first-innings score at this venue is 156, though, in the most recent T20I, Ireland comfortably chased down a target of 140. Historically, teams batting first have had greater success at this ground, winning 23 T20Is compared to 18 victories for teams batting second.

IND vs ZIM 1st T20I: Shubman Gill-led India have landed on the land of Zimbabwe for a five-match T20I series against the hosts Zimbabwe. With a new squad and youngster taking on the responsibilities, here we are to predict the strongest India Playing 11 for the IND vs ZIM 1st T20I of India Tour of Zimbabwe 2024.



<div class="wp-block-rank-math-toc-block" id="rank-math-toc"><nav><ul><li class=""><a href="#india-playing-11-for-the-ind-vs-zim-1st-t-20-i-prediction"> India Playing 11 for the IND vs ZIM 1st T20I Prediction</a><ul><li class=""><a href="#india-squad-vs-zimbabwe">INDIA Squad vs Zimbabwe</a></li><li class=""><a href="#indias-expected-playing-11">India's Expected Playing 11</a></li></ul></li></ul></nav></div>



The Zimbabwe tour of the team India was scheduled just after the conclusion of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. The retirement of big names including the skipper Rohit Sharma pressed the button for the reboot of the T20I regime. 



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="india-playing-11-for-the-ind-vs-zim-1st-t-20-i-prediction"> India Playing 11 for the IND vs ZIM 1st T20I Prediction</h2>



The BCCI selection committee has done wonderful work with the selection of the squad where they picked up a young and balanced squad with a little of experience too. 



<h4 class="wp-block-heading has-text-align-center" id="india-squad-vs-zimbabwe">INDIA Squad vs Zimbabwe</h4>



Shubman Gill (C), Ruturaj Gaikwad, Abhishek Sharma, Rinku Singh, Dhruv Jurel (WK), Riyan Parag, Washington Sundar, Ravi Bishnoi, Avesh Khan, Khaleel Ahmed, Mukesh Kumar, Tushar Deshpande, Sai Sudharsan, Jitesh Sharma (WK), Harshit Rana



Shubman Gill has been assigned the captaincy duties and he will have a tough call right at the top with the opening combinations. Yashasvi Jaiswal has raised his name on the international stage loudly so one end is cemented for him for the instance.



For the second end in the opening, he has four names- Ruturaj Gaikwad, Abhishek Sharma, Sai Sudharsan, and he himself. However, Gill would be the ideal one in the squad to fill in Kohli's spot as number 3 in the T20I so Ruturaj has more weight for the opening spot.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/04/Shubman-Gill-Yashasvi-Jaiswal-1-1024x576.jpg" alt="No Rinku Singh, Sanju Samson, Shubman Gill as Mohammad Kaif picks T20 World Cup squad for Team India" class="wp-image-132564" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Image: Chandan Khanna / AFP</figcaption></figure>



Riyan Parag should be the next in number four. His ability to hit the spin and slog the pace is excellent and he can finish innings with power. This lineup would be weak if Rinku Singh wasn't there. His appearance down the order makes a huge impact and can run down the morale of any opponent. He will be there at number five. 



There will be a toss-up between wicketkeeper-batters <a href="https://www.espncricinfo.com/cricketers/dhruv-jurel-1175488">Dhruv Jurel</a> and Jitesh Sharma. They both possess a similar sort of biodata so any of them would be the perfect one to enter at number six and his six-hitting abilities down the order would be very useful for the team.



Washington Sunder and Ravi Bishnoi would be the two spinners at number seven or eight and with the batting skills of Washington Sunder, India do have a long batting up to number 7.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2023/12/Ravi-Bishnoi.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-123430" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Ravi Bishnoi </figcaption></figure>



Three spots for pacers and Mukesh Kumar is almost certain to be there. He will be leading the pace bowling attack and the other two might be Khaleel and Avesh Khan or Harshit Rana. 



Khaleel gives an option of a left-arm bowler with his incredible swinging abilities with the new ball and we have seen in the T20 World Cup, what a left-armer did for India. Avesh has played for India in the past and him being included in the playing 11 won't be surprising. 



Below is the India's playing 11 for IND vs ZIM 1st T20I:

India Expected playing 11 against Zimbabwe in 1st T20I

india-expected-playing-11-against-zimbabwe-in-1st-t20i

The Zimbabwe national cricket team represents Zimbabwe in men's international cricket and is administered by Zimbabwe Cricket. Zimbabwe has been a Full Member of the International Cricket Council since 1992.

Zimbabwe

The 5th &amp; Final Test-Match in Sydney between Fierce-Rivals Australia and India ended today and the home team secured an easy six-wicket win and this win allowed them to secure the series by 3-1.This win of the Aussies has also made some significant changes in the overall standings of the 2023-25 World Test Championship (WTC) cycle. 
Talking about the contest, the Jasprit Bumrah-led team were at 124-4 in their 2nd inning and they were looking set to set a big target for the Pat Cummins-led team. However, the Australian bowlers were in deadly mood as their perfect bowling display led to Team India suffering a batting collapse and they lost wickets in quick succession and eventually got bundled out for a mere score of 157 runs. 
Wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant fought the lone warrior's battle as he played an impressive inning of 61 runs in just 33 deliveries but he didn't get any kind of support from his fellow batters at the other end and the Kangaroos took full advantage of this and eventually the game turned in the favour of the Defending Champions. 
For the Australian team, Scott Boland took 6 wickets while giving away 45 runs while skipper Pat Cummins also played a good hand with figures of 3-44 next to his name. 
The Aussies were given a target of 162 runs to win the Sydney Test-Match but they lost wickets unnecessarily as Sam Konstas (22 runs in 17 deliveries), Marnus Labuschagne (6 runs in 20 deliveries), and Steve Smith (4 runs in 9 balls) went back to the pavilion cheaply, leaving the Australian team suddenly in a dire position of 58/3.
Next, opening batter Usman Khawaja played a good knock of 41 runs in 45 deliveries which allowed his team to initiate a comeback in the contest. If Bumrah wouldn't have got injured, then Khawaja wouldn't even get the chance to go past the 10 runs mark. 
Without the availability of Bumrah, the Aussie batters started to play their shots freely and theu began creating a lot of pressure on the Indian bowling unit. While Prasidh Krishna did his best to help his team stay alive in the contest, he began to falter and this worked in the favour of the Australians. 
As a result, the duo of Beau Webster &amp; Travis Head got involved in a strong partnership for thethe fifth wicket and added 58 runs in just 53 balls and this turned out to be winning factor. They helped their team reach a score of 162-4 and the Kangaroos won the encounter by a margin of six wickets.
<h2>WTC Final Chance:</h2>
Pat Cummins-led Aussies have successfully qualified for the 2023-25 World Test Championship (WTC) Final after securing the BGT series 3-1. Temba Bavuma-led South Africa have already secured their tickets for the Final after defeating Pakistan in the first Test-Match. 
Keeping the statistics in mind, Team India have failed to qualify for the WTC Final for the first time since 2021. They are ranked third in the overall Standings with a PCT of 50. South Africa are the table toppers with a PCT of 66.67 while the Kangaroos are ranked 2nd with 63.73 PCT next to their name. They are followed by the likes of New Zealand (48.21) and Sri Lanka (45.45) respectively.

Can Team India still qualify for the WTC Final after suffering an embarrassing defeat in the Sydney Test-Match Or have they been eliminated completely?

Team India lost the Sydney Test Match, do they have any chances of qualifying for the WTC Final? Explained!

Day 3 of the fifth and final test between India and Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground ended India's one-and-a-half-month-long tour of Australia. With that, Australia also ended their long wait to clinch the Border-Gavaskar Trophy and won it with a margin of 3-1.
Apart from the first test, Australia dominated India throughout the series, including the third day at SCG. As a result, the Australian crowd was also animated and tried to put pressure on Team India. But Virat Kohli, who is known for his passionate persona, came up with his own way to answer.
<h2>IND vs AUS: Virat Kohli mocks Australian crowd with "Sandpapar" gesture on Day 3</h2>
The Australian crowd has a history of involvement with visiting teams time and time again, and this BGT 2024-25 was not new. There were many instances during the series when they targeted Indian players. Especially when it comes to Virat Kohli, the Australian crowd often welcomes him or reacts to his actions with boos. But Virat has always been the approach of giving it back.
Something similar happened on Sunday as well. Notably, Virat was the stand-in captain in the absence of Jasprit Bumrah. Responding to Australian crowds, Virat gestures with his "empty pocket." This incident happened just when Steve Smith got out on Day 3. Smith was part of the infamous "Sandpapergate" incident during a Cape Town test against South Africa in 2018.
Australia used sandpaper in order to tamper with the cricket ball to get more reverse swing from the ball. Unfortunately for them, it was caught on camera, and players involved in it, Smith, along with David Warner and Cameron Bancroft, faced bans. As a result, Virat was seen doing the "sandpapar" gesture after Smith's wickets to provoke the Australian fans.
As soon as it happened, the video of the incident went viral, and everyone was talking about it on social media. Speaking of the game, India started Day 3 at 142/6 and were bowled out for 157 runs, setting a target of 161 to win. Australia reached the target with six wickets in hand and registered the 3-1 series win. It was their first BGT win since 2014-15. With this, they also qualified for the final of the World Test Championship 2023-25.

The Australian Cricket Team, under the leadership of Pat Cummins successfully defeated Team India in the Sydney Test-Match by a margin of six wickets and this wicket helped them to seal the 2024-25 Border-Gavaskar Trophy series by 3-1.
While the Aussie players are going to be really happy with this series win, the Indians on the other hand, are facing a lot of criticism following the series defeat especially the Indian batters. Senior players like Virat Kohli are the main targets of the critics. 
In the 2024-25 Border-Gavaskar Trophy series, Kohli got dismissed on the outside off-stump line eight times and versus the Aussie bowlers, the former Indian skipper looked helpless &amp; cluseless versus the them. Now, AB De Villiers, the South African legend has made a huge revelation regarding how the former Indian and RCB skipper can tackle the outside off-stump deliveries.
<h2>'Every Batsman in the world struggles with some weakness'</h2>
AB De Villiers said, "He (Virat) can definitely find a solution to the the outside off-stump deliveries. Every batsman out there has a weakness and if I talk about myself, then the deliveries which used to come towards the pads in a straight line used to trouble me a lot. But I learnt from it and scored a lot of runs in the remainder of my career. 
I still remember the Test-Series versus England (ENG). The series kicked off on a positive note and I scored good amount of runs in the Durban Test-Match and everything was going smoothly. But, then the duo of Stuart Broad and James Anderson started dismissing me on a successive note and especially, with the new ball, I got out constantly".
<h2>What's the solution to the problem of Virat Kohli? </h2>
AB de Villiers believes that old balls keep running in the mind of the 36-year-old, which automatically affects the next forthcoming delivery. What happened before on the previous ball doesn't matter... He (Virat) should play every ball like a new and fresh one, he should just forget thinking about the previous deliveries. If finds success in doing this properly, then he can play the outside off-stump deliveries in a much better way.

India batter Virat Kohli has been at the receiving end of heavy criticism after his failures in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. The batter looked torrid with the bat in the majority of the series and there have been calls related to his retirement as well. 
Virat Kohli, who hit a century in the first Test, looked absolutely torrid with the bat in the rest of the games of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. The premier batter was troubled by the balls outside off stump as it brought his downfall in almost every match of the five-match Test series. 
When Virat Kohli hit a century in Perth, it was expected that he would have a breakthrough series and would be setting the stage on fire. But that wasn't the case, as, after the ton in the opening match, he failed in the entire series and ended up getting just around 90 runs in the rest of the games. 
Since 2020, Virat Kohli has looked extremely torrid with the bat and has been averaging just in the 20s. This has seen him getting a lot of criticism for his poor outings. Many fans and experts have lashed out at him for his poor performances and hence they want him to make way for youngster. 
One of the heavy criticism came from Irfan Pathan, who pointed out the batter's poor average, saying that Virat Kohli averaged just 15 in the first innings of the Test. He said that the players with these low averages don't deserve a place in the Indian Team. 
<h2>He has made a lot of runs, but in 2024, batting in the first innings where you set up the match, Kohli averages just 15 - Irfan Pathan</h2>
Irfan Pathan added that it's time for Virat Kohli to make way for youngsters and that even young players will maintain a batting average of 25-30. Speaking to Star Sports, he explained: 
"He has made a lot of runs, but in 2024, batting in the first innings where you set up the match, Kohli averages just 15. If we take out his stats for the last five years, he barely averages 30. Does the Indian team deserve that from its senior player? It's better to give a youngster a long run, tell him to get ready; even that guy will maintain a batting average of 25-30." 
India's next Test series will be against England. It remains to be seen if he will be part of the series or not.

"Youngster will maintain a batting average of 25-30"- Virat Kohli asked to leave Team India

Day 3 of the fifth Test between India and Australia at SCG brought the end to a long one and a half months of your. Australia's one-decade-long wait to win the Border-Gavaskar Trophy has finally ended as they have beaten India in the final test by six wickets to clinch the BGT trophy 3-1. With this, they also qualified for the World Test Championship final.
On the other hand, India have been humiliated on Australian soil and also lost the chance to play the WTC final. The last couple of months have been horrible for Team India as they have lost a home test series against New Zealand, and now they have also lost the all-important BGT trophy. But there were few positives as well. Here we will talk about three positives for India from the BGT series defeat.
<h2>Three Positives for India to take forward after 1-3 Border-Gavaskar Trophy defeat</h2>
1. Yashasvi Jaiswal - The Trusted Opener
It was a tough series for all the batters because bowlers dominated these conditions throughout. But there were some good batting performances as well. Yashasvi Jaiswal was India's best batter in this series. It was his first time in Australia, and he showed that he has it all to perform in tough conditions.
Jaiswal finished with the second-most runs after Travis Head and scored 391 runs at an average of 43.44 with one hundred and two half-centuries. He has been in good form, and India can look to cash in on his form in the coming Champions Trophy 2025.
2. Evolution of Nitish Kumar Reddy 
Another man who impressed everyone was young all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy. Though his five wickets at an average of 38 don't do justice for him, it was his first tour, too, his debut series. He showed great maturity with his bat and scored 298 runs at an average of 37.25.
Nitish played some good innings under pressure. India can groom him to become a match-winning all-rounder, and in white-ball cricket, he can be very handy. Certainly, he has given selectors an option for the Champions Trophy 2025, along with Hardik Pandya.
3. Identification of Problem 
India's poor batting form became the reason of consecutive test series defeat. Especially, the form of Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Rishabh Pant and Shubman Gill became the taking points.
But in some ways it is good sign that the problems have been identify and now the management can work with these guys to regain their form. Because these are part of India's core batting unit for the Champions Trophy 2025.
