Pakistan Minister Establishes 'Suryakumar Yadav Condition' for Asia Cup Trophy Transfer to India
In light of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) rejecting requests for a trophy handover ceremony, Asian Cricket Council (ACC) leader Mohsin Naqvi has reportedly introduced a new condition to break the deadlock regarding the Asia Cup 2025. During an ACC meeting on Tuesday, BCCI officials Rajeev Shukla and Ashish Shelar put Naqvi on the defensive by requesting that the trophy be stored in the Asian body's Dubai office for shipping to India.Naqvi, however, demonstrated little to no willingness to comply with the requests from the Indian board. A report by the Pakistani media outlet Geo Super states that Naqvi even opposed the mention of the trophy handover in the meeting, as it was not included in the original agenda. During a virtual meeting, Naqvi informed Rajeev Shukla, "This item was not included in the agenda for the ACC meeting." Naqvi, in response to the BCCI's insistence on the trophy's return, stated: "If the Indian team wants the trophy, the captain can come to the ACC office and collect it from me. "Witnessing Naqvi's lack of cooperation, the BCCI warned the heads of the ACC and PCB that if the trophy is not transferred to the Indian team within a specified timeframe, they will lodge a complaint with the ICC concerning this issue. As PTI reported, a source stated, “It was clarified that the BCCI would lodge a complaint with the ICC, and Shelar made a brief exit from the meeting.” During the tournament, the two teams faced off three times, with India emerging victorious on each occasion, including in the final. During the event, India upheld a 'no-handshake policy' with Pakistani players, which angered the PCB.Following the Pahalgam terror attack, where Pakistan-backed terrorists killed 26 Indian tourists, tensions between the two neighbors have reached unprecedented levels.

PCB Chief Mohsin Naqvi Complains in Social Media Post Following His Asia Cup Final Trophy Incident
The Chief of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) and Interior Minister of the country, Mohsin Naqvi, who embarrassed himself internationally by taking the Asia Cup trophy after India declined to accept it from him, is now asserting that India has dishonored the spirit of the game. After suffering a crushing defeat to India, PCB Chief Mohsin Naqvi—whose X account is withheld in India—reacted on the microblogging platform to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's congratulatory message following the match.“If war was how you gauged your pride, your shameful defeats against Pakistan are already chronicled in history. No cricket match can change that reality. Naqvi stated, "Dragging war into sport merely showcases desperation and dishonors the true spirit of the game. "PM Modi commended India’s renowned victory earlier, stating, “Operation Sindoor on the games field.” The result is identical: India wins! Congratulations to our cricketers.Naqvi's misunderstanding of historical events and facts is evident, and he requires a serious reminder of how often Pakistan has had to submit to Indian superiority in conflicts. Beginning with the signing of the Instrument of Surrender by Lieutenant General A.A.K. Niazi, head of Pakistani forces, to the Indian Army in 1971, which ended the war, and continuing through to the Kargil Conflict, where former PM Nawaz Sharif acknowledged their mistake in breaching the Lahore declaration.

Magnus Carlsen was challenged with the question of ‘if he would be able to dominate,’ while D Gukesh's ‘insane run’ served as a reminder
Magnus Carlsen will not take part in the forthcoming 2026 Candidates Tournament, nor will he challenge D Gukesh for the World Championship title.Even though Magnus Carlsen gave up his title as World Chess Champion in 2022, he continues to hold the No. 1 position in the FIDE classical rankings. The five-time World Chess Champion remains the top classical chess player globally. He shares the title of reigning eight-time World Blitz Champion with Ian Nepomniachtchi, and he is also a five-time World Rapid Champion.Carlsen is not involved in the current FIDE cycle. He will not take part in the forthcoming 2026 Candidates Tournament, nor will he challenge D Gukesh for the World Championship title or compete in the upcoming 2025 Chess World Cup.He did not participate in the recent FIDE Grand Swiss held in Samarkand, where Anish Giri emerged victorious and Matthias Blubaum was the runner-up. The duo also secured qualification for the Candidates' Tournament. In a conversation with FIDE, Giri addressed the competitive nature of elite chess tournaments, noting that nearly all participants are on equal footing. „Ich denke, das Spielfeld ist derzeit sehr eben“, sagte er.In the interview I gave, people misunderstood it. I mentioned that a few players would exit, cited some names, and indeed, some of those players have fallen out of the top ten. I merely mentioned a lot of names. It was not focused on specific players, but rather in general terms. The Dutch GM went on, "I was referring to a concept that somehow all the top players at this moment don’t seem to have anyone who stands out, with all due respect."

BCCI Responds to Shreyas Iyer’s Sudden Exit from India A Squad
Shreyas Iyer’s unexpected withdrawal from the India A team raised several questions, especially with no official explanation at the time. The BCCI has now addressed the situation, stating that Iyer had informed team management about discomfort and was advised rest by medical staff. His exit, however, sparked speculation given his recent exclusion from the central contract list. A report suggests Iyer may have been unhappy with the way his situation was handled by selectors, though there’s no confirmation from the player himself. For now, the BCCI maintains that his health was the only reason behind the decision. As the conversation continues, fans await clarity on Iyer’s future with the national setup.

Rashid Khan was excluded from the India T20Is.
On the eve of the opening game in Mohali, captain Ibrahim Zadra announced that Rashid Khan would miss the three-match Twenty20 International series against India. The 25-year-old recently had back surgery, and while he is still recovering, he is traveling with the squad."He is traveling with us despite not being fully fit. We're hopeful that as soon as he finishes his therapy, he'll be back to normal. In this series, we shall miss him," Zadran remarked during the Wednesday, January 10 news conference. We will struggle without Rashid because of his vital expertise, but even without him, we have excellent spinners in Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Muhammad Nabi, Noor Ahmad, and Qais Ahmad. We trust them since they have all played a lot of cricket."Zadran said that if his team wants to have a chance at home against India, they would have to strengthen their batting. The likes of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, who will be keen to establish their worth to the team in the run-up to the T20 World Cup, have been called back by the hosts. "We have quality spinners and seamers, but we need to improve our batting skills; we will try to be more aggressive in that area," he stated. "We have performed brilliantly in the World Cup of cricket. The Afghan people throughout the world are counting on us to succeed.The teams will play each other in the second Twenty20 International in Indore following the first Twenty20 International in Mohali, and the third and final Twenty20 International in Bengaluru.
No disciplinary issue for Ishan; competing to be the England Tests specialty keeper
For the Test series against England, the Indian squad may decide to go with a specialist wicketkeeper, and Ishan Kishan may be one option.Ishan might indicate that he is available for the next Test series after becoming entangled in a controversy regarding his exclusion from the T20I series against Afghanistan. Currently on a cricket break, the 25-year-old wicketkeeper-batsman is targeting a return for the five-Test series that kicks off in Hyderabad on January 25. Following the team management's strategy, spearheaded by Rahul Dravid, which mandates a domestic match prior to an international comeback after an extended layoff, Ishan can declare himself fit for Jharkhand's next match against Services in Delhi starting on January 19 in order to demonstrate his fitness. Nov. 28 was Ishan's last India match.Dravid denied rumors that Ishan was left out because of his lack of discipline, saying that Ishan had asked for the voluntary vacation. The coach denied rumors of disciplinary problems, stating that Ishan has not yet made himself available for selection. Cricbuzz had previously drawn attention to the mystery surrounding Ishan's non-selection. There isn't a single disciplinary concern. There was not a choice for Ishan Kishan. We decided to take a break in South Africa after Ishan made this request. We were in favor of it. He has not yet offered himself for use. On the eve of India's maiden Twenty20 international match in Mohali, Dravid stated, "When he is available, he will play domestic cricket and make himself available for selection."To prepare him for the wicketkeeping duty, KS Bharat has been invited to participate in the A series against the England Lions in Ahmedabad, in keeping with the specialist keeper method. Ishan Kishan is still a viable contender for this particular specialized role. On January 25, the five-Test series will begin.To concentrate on batting, KL Rahul However, considering the difficulties of keeping wickets on Indian pitches that are turning, the team management wants to release KL Rahul from his dual duties of wicket-keeping and batting. With his recent back surgery, the management wants Rahul to concentrate on his batting and not put himself under unnecessary strain. In the two Test matches that India just played in South Africa, Rahul retained wickets.
Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma are back in the T20 team for the Afghanistan series.
Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma made a well-publicized return to the Indian T20 team on Sunday for the three-match series against Afghanistan at home, with the former being chosen captain starting on January 11 in Mohali. When India faced England in the World Cup quarterfinal in November, Rohit and Kohli made their last appearance in a Twenty20 match.The squad needed to abandon its powerplay strategy, as the two veterans and KL Rahul were observed to be playing antiquated cricket, and Hardik Pandya was set to take over as the club's new T20 captain. The squad needed to abandon its powerplay strategy, as the two veterans and KL Rahul were observed to be playing antiquated cricket, and Hardik Pandya was set to take over as the club's new T20 captain. But there was a lot of inexperience at the top of the order as a result of Pandya's injury during the ODI World Cup and, more recently, Suryakumar Yadav's ligament damage.The renowned pair would be chosen for the Afghanistan series by the Ajit Agarkar-led selection panel, according to a PTI story from last week. "The selection committee is not the only body that can make decisions about Rohit and Virat. Broadcasters and sponsors have a lot on the line, and you can't choose to ignore the other. Under the condition of anonymity, a former India selector told PTI that Ajit and his staff needed to keep things as they were.
Examining the Newlands pitch in detail
Is the Newlands pitch's "unsatisfactory" rating fair or too lenient? While the jury is currently considering the case, recent modifications to the International Cricket Council's (ICC) rules may have limited the match referee's ability to impose harsher penalties. The ICC has simplified the ratings into only four categories: very good, satisfactory, unsatisfactory, and unfit. This is in contrast to the old six-grade rating system, which included very good, good, average, below average, poor, and unfit.This narrowed spectrum left match referee Chris Broad with less options. Broad has not always been favored by Indian teams. If there hadn't been a real risk, the pitch wouldn't have been classified as "unfit," which would have resulted in three demerit points. Broad chose to give the Newlands pitch a "unsatisfactory" grade with one demerit point because he did not believe it to be dangerous. With only 642 deliveries, the contest ended in less than five sessions, making it the shortest Test match in nearly 150 years of cricket history. India leveled the two-Test series at 1-1 after winning the Test by seven wickets."Batting on the pitch at Newlands was quite challenging. Throughout the game, the ball bounced swiftly and occasionally frighteningly, making it challenging to play shots. In elucidating the rating, Broad noted, "Several batters were hit on the gloves, and many wickets also fell due to the awkward bounce." He refrained from using the term "dangerous," which would have resulted in an unsuitable rating. What the ICC looks for in a pitch is described in its ICC Pitch and Outfield Monitoring Process. It is acknowledged that early in the game, a small amount of seam movement is permissible and that as the match goes on, a pitch may acquire some uneven bounce for seam bowlers. This is fine, but it shouldn't progress to the extent that they may be regarded asMost people believe that member boards file appeals rather than making necessary corrections. The Western Province Cricket Association (WPCA) and the CSA have intimated that they might not file an appeal in this matter, but they still have 14 days to do so. "Under the ICC Pitch and Outfield Monitoring Process, the WPCA accepts the International Cricket Council's determination that the pitch at Newlands Cricket Ground for the second Test between South Africa and India was 'unsatisfactory.'" The WPCA is dedicated to maintaining the greatest standards in cricket and making sure that the playing fields at Newlands are of the greatest caliber. We take seriously the input provided by Mr. Chris Broad, the ICC Match Referee, and we appreciate his concerns. In my capacity as an accountable
Deepti Sharma and Shubman Gill triumph greatly at the BCCI awards
For the finest men's and women's international cricket players of 2022–2023, Shubman Gill and Deepti Sharma have been named winners by the BCCI. While Deepti won the women's award for the second time, having previously won it for the 2019–20 season, Gill won the men's award, named after the former India captain Polly Umrigar, for the first time in his career. Since declaring Jasprit Bumrah and Poonam Yadav the 2018–19 international cricket players, the BCCI has not yet revealed their prizes. They have now finished clearing out their backlog and have named the champions of the last four seasons all at once. Mohammed Shami and Deepti have received the honours for 2019-20, R Ashwin and Smriti Mandhana for 2020-21, and Bumrah and Mandhana for 2021-22. In a year full with Twenty20 international matches, Deepti, on the other hand, was an integral part of an Indian team that won the Women's Asia Cup and the gold medal at the Asian Games. The offspinner amassed 38 wickets in T20Is at an average of 14.81 and an economy rate of 5.71, which was the most by a bowler from a Full Member nation during the award period. He also amassed 313 runs at bat, including two half-centuries, at an average of 28.45.
Recapping a summer in Australia: Shan Masood's Pakistan had no shame in losing 3-0
MI Due to his ongoing recuperation from back surgery, Cape Town captain Rashid Khan will not play in the 2018 SA20 season. According to a statement from his cricket board (ACB), the outstanding legspinner was included in the Afghanistan squad on January 6 for the three-match T20I series in India, but it is unlikely that he would play. Rashid has also skipped Afghanistan's most recent Big Bash League (BBL) and T20I series in the United Arab Emirates. Making his SA20 debut, Kieron Pollard will captain MI Cape Town in Rashid's injury-plagued absence. Because the ILT20 in 2024 conflicts with the SA20, Pollard was also signed by MI Emirates to play in that tournament. However, Nicholas Pooran will captain MI Emirates instead of Pollard.Pollard was playing in the Abu Dhabi T10 league for the New York Strikers, where his team was defeated by Deccan Gladiators in the championship game. As a free agent in December 2023, Pooran—Pollard's CPL teammate at Trinbago Knight Riders—refused to accept his West Indies central contract. In September 2023, Pooran was revealed as the wildcard selection of Durban's Super Giants. Before joining MI Emirates for the second ILT20 season, Pooran is probably going to play three games in the SA20.Additionally, MI Cape Town confirmed the signing of Nuwan Thushara, a fast bowler from Sri Lanka, who will replace Jofra Archer in the forthcoming campaign. January 10–February 10 is when the SA20 and January 19–February 17 is when the ILT20 will take place. The Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) and New Zealand's Super Smash will also be competing against the two leagues.
Pujara flattens Jharkhand with his 17th double-hundred.
In the first round of the 2023–24 Ranji Trophy season, Cheteshwar Pujara achieved his 17th double-century in first-class cricket against Jharkhand. After batting on 157 overnight, Pujara advanced past 200 in the opening session of the third day and was undefeated on 243 following lunch, when Saurashtra declared on 578 for 4, commanding a commanding 436-run lead. With 17 first-class doubles, Pujara is currently tied with Herbert Sutcliffe and Mark Ramprakash, but he is still behind Patsy Hendren (22) and Wally Hammond (36), as well as Don Bradman (37). In the Ranji Trophy, Pujara achieved his eighth double-hundred, placing him second on the list only to Paras Dogra's nine.In addition, Pujara owns three first-class triple hundreds; the most recent came in October 2013 against West Indies.
Herath is probably going to rejoin Bangladesh, but not as a spin bowling coach.
Former Bangladeshi spin bowling coach Rangana Herath wants to guide the nation's spinners instead of concentrating on the national cricket squad.Recently, the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) released job openings for a number of coaching roles that were unfilled when current contracts expired. As previously reported by Cricbuzz, the BCB's coaching staff is about to undergo significant changes. On January 3, they posted job openings for the national cricket team, which included assistant coach for the following two years, strength and conditioning coach, batting coach, pace bowling coach, and analyst.Unexpectedly, no job posting was made for the spin bowling coach post, which remained unfilled following Herath's exit. Similar to this, Shane McDermott's departure left the position of fielding coach unfilled. In the upcoming days, Nic Pothas, the assistant coach already in place, will take on the role of managing the fielding department. As far as Cricbuzz is aware, the BCB has offered Herath a new position that is more like to that of a mentor for spin, where he will work with slow bowlers of all ages instead of coaching spin for the national side. In contrast to his annual role as the spin coach of the national team, Herath is now required to spend 200 days coaching spinners around Bangladesh, according to the revised offer letter. BCB officials stressed that, given the small number of spinners on the national team (one or two), there are situations in which a spin coach may not be needed. Rather, they want to use Herath to train spinners for the High Performance Unit and age group. The offer letter was acknowledged, and Herath responded, "I will speak with my lawyer and need to go through that, and I will respond as soon as possible." Herath was enthusiastic when discussing the suggested 200-day work year arrangement, saying, "I am pretty keen on working."
Shorts whole performance snaps the Strikers losing run.
Adelaide Strikers ended a four-match losing streak with a nine-wicket victory over Perth Scorchers, whom they had suffered a heavy defeat to just a few days prior, thanks to an all-around performance by Matthew Short. For the Scorchers, this was their first defeat of the year.Matthew Short opened the innings at the top of the order with a 51-ball 76*, his sixth fifty of the season that was full of seven fours and four sixes, as he pursued a modest target of 154 on a fine Adelaide Oval pitch. After Chris Lynn (50* off 33) and Short (who was dropped by Jhye Richardson off the first ball he faced) combined for 98 runs for the second wicket, the team won victorious with 23 balls remaining. The Strikers' bowling laid the groundwork for their success, even as their batting helped to cement a significant win. Sam Whiteman, the opener, was removed by Matthew Short, who also bowled his three overs for just 11 runs. The Scorchers were unable to gain any momentum in their innings and continued to lose wickets despite the third wicket partnership of Aaron Hardie and Josh Inglis scoring sixty runs. David Payne and Lloyd Pope each returned two wickets when Lloyd Pope was selected for his match.
Bumrah bags fifer as the Proteas fall down 7–0; Kohli teases 50-up Markram
South Africa has taken the lead in the second Test match between India and South Africa, but the hosts still have a few wickets to gain on Day 2.South Africa vs. India: Live Score Day 2 of the Second Test: Day 2 of the 2nd Test in Cape Town has put Team India, led by Rohit Sharma, in command after top bowler Jasprit Bumrah claimed a match-changing five wicket haul in the opening session. Aiden Markram of South Africa is spearheading the Proteas' batting attack on the second day of the series finale at Newlands. On an exciting opening day of the New Year's Test match between South Africa and India in Cape Town, as many as 23 wickets fell. The pacer Mohammed Siraj took his first six wickets in the opening session of the series decider at Newlands, dismantling the Proteas lineup and setting off an astonishing batting collapse by the hosts in the first innings. JasmineNandre Burger had earlier helped Ngidi and Rabada, taking three wickets before the tea break to keep the Proteas in the game. On the first day of the Cape Town final, Rohit and Co. recovered from the massive Indian collapse and held South Africa to 62-3 in 17 overs. On the first day of the Test match, Elgar, the acting captain of South Africa, was removed twice, making him the second batter to do so. In South Africa's second innings, pacers Jasprit Bumrah and Mukesh Kumar have shared seven wickets between them for India. Everything you require to know regarding the second Test between South Africa and India in Cape Town is as follows: -On an insane first day of the series decider at Newlands, as many as 23.
Umpires will no longer examine stumping appeals while looking for caught behind.
The playing conditions have been modified by the ICC, so when the on-field umpires refer a stumping appeal, the TV umpire will no longer look for a caught behind. The change went into effect on December 12, 2023. As a result, a team will need to use the DRS independently to examine a caught behind once the keeper has also removed the bails.Australian wicketkeeper Alex Carey repeatedly called for a stumping in the series against India early in the previous year. The TV umpire would also look for an edge during the referral without using a DRS review. Umpires will no longer look for nicks when stumping referrals are made; instead, images from the side-on camera will be displayed. "The change confines a stumping review to only check for stumped, therefore preventing the fielding team a free review for other modes of dismissal (i.e, caught behind) without choosing a player review," according to the revised amendment. Additionally, the ICC has improved the concussion substitution rule's clarity. Hence, if the player who was substituted was suspended from.The amendment states that when the TV umpire is looking for stumping, he will no longer look for caught behind. The ICC has now tightened its hold on such occurrences because before the loophole permitted the fielding side to evaluate the incident without the use of a Decision evaluate System (DRS).
Watch: Virat Kohli Is Scared by a South Africa Pacer. Sunil Gavaskars Response Is Magnificent
It's going to be a day that Indian cricket history will never forget. On the opening day of the second Test against South Africa, India decisively dismissed a side for a double digit score, which is a significant accomplishment. Mohammed Siraj took a career-high six wickets to help India eliminate South Africa for a meager 55 runs before the visitors were out for 153.Despite losing the top order, India defeated the Proteas by 56 runs at Tea. The match could finish in three days, if not less, because the pitch was not the best for batting. The South African batsmen ran back to the dug-out in dismay at the unsettling bounce and movement, both inward and outward, that Siraj exploited from the pitch. In a span of nine overs, he picked six for 15.The Day also witnessed an incident in which Nadre Burger, a South African pacer, attempted to threaten Virat Kohli by hurling the ball in his direction. In return, Virat Kohli grinned. During the commentary, Sunil Gavaskar stated, "Virat Kohli is the wrong man to do your aggression."
Second Test between India and South Africa: Indias batting collapses after Mohammed Sirajs
After capturing six wickets in an incredibly dangerous morning spell, Mohammed Siraj was horrified to discover that India had lost six wickets in the evening session in only eleven balls. This was before India regained the upper hand against South Africa on an exciting opening day of the second Test in Cape Town. India were 153 for 4 after Siraj's career-best 6/15 destroyed South Africa for their lowest post-apartheid score of 55. However, in the next 11 deliveries, India lost six wickets without scoring a single run, giving them a 98-run lead.It was a statistician's nightmare: six Indian hitters did not open their accounts, and one who did not worry the scorer by staying out. While 23 wickets fell on the first day, Lungi Ngidi (3/30) and Kagiso Rabada (3/38) claimed five of those six wickets, keeping the lead below 100 and obtaining the required psychological advantage.Despite being aggressive, South Africa was more circumspect, scoring 62 for three at stumps in their second innings to reduce the gap to 36 runs. In the middle, Aiden Markram (32 at bat) appeared reliable. The greatest number of wickets lost on the first day of a test is 25, which occurred in an Ashes test in 1902. In his final Test match, Dean Elgar would want to forget that he was dismissed twice in a single day while Mukesh Kumar (2/0 and 2/25) was rewarded for his steady ability to pitch the ball in the proper places and generate enough movement to get away from southpaws.It is unlikely that the contest will continue into the third day. The crimson Kookaburra ball went off like a jumbo jet from the length on a Newlands track that generated high bounce and would definitely escape the notice of ICC match referee Chris Broad, making it impossible for batsmen to survive. By the end of the day, the bounce became inconsistent and batters were hit all over the place, from the lower abdomen to the shoulder blades. Despite living dangerously and hitting seven tasty fours, Rohit Sharma (39 off 50 balls) knew that survival would not get him far. The same is true for Shubman Gill (36 off 55 balls) and Virat Kohli (46 off 59 balls), who both demonstrated good intent. Yashasvi Jaiswal (0) and Shreyas Iyer (0).
It’s all about David Warner in his farewell test at the Sydney Cricket Ground against Pakistan
When David Warner plays Pakistan in his final test at the Sydney Cricket Ground, everything revolves around him.Warner has contributed to the build-up to what is essentially a game in which Australia has already secured the three-test series with wins in Perth and Melbourne. At the SCG, the visitors still have something to aim for because Pakistan last defeated Australia in a test match back in 1985.At a press conference on New Year's Day, Warner declared that one-day internationals will now be included on his retirement list. However, in true Warner manner, he stated that if requested, he will return for the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy. With HT, close off the previous year and get ready for 2024! Go here to go there. Following Australia's recent World Cup victory in India, when he led the winning team in runs scored, he stated that the time had come to call it a day for his ODI career to end. At least until the Twenty20 World Cup in the United States and the Caribbean in June, Warner will keep playing Twenty20 cricket for Australia. "I was extremely at ease with the (ODI) decision," Warner, 37, stated to the Australian Associated Press. "To prevail in
IPL 2024: Will Suryakumar Yadav be absent?
The National Cricket Academy (NCA) has sources that indicate Mohammed Shami's health is not good, while Hardik Pandya is progressing well and could soon be fully recovered from his injury. "Shami needs to show his fitness at NCA; he hasn't even begun bowling yet. He appears questionable for the opening two Test matches against England, according to sources cited by news outlet The Indian Express on Monday.IPL 2024: Will Suryakumar Yadav be absent? During the T20 series, Suryakumar Yadav has demonstrated excellent leadership qualities against Australia and South Africa. The hitter, who is vital to the Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League, will probably miss a few games this season in the local league. After receiving a diagnosis of sports hernia, Suryakumar Yadav is scheduled to undergo surgery in Munich, Germany. "SKY was diagnosed with a sports hernia lately. At Bengaluru's National Cricket Academy, he is now recovering. He is scheduled to travel to Munich, Germany in two to three days for surgery. It implies that he most likely won't play for Mumbai in the Ranji Trophy this season and would miss the first few games forSurya has ample time to recuperate ahead of the T20 World Cup in June. According to the sources, "He is essential to India's chances in the T20 World Cup. Virat Kohli and captain Rohit Sharma will make their comebacks in the India versus Afghanistan series. Although the pair hasn't played Twenty20 cricket since the T20 World Cup 2022 semifinal, their involvement in the Afghanistan series gives their supporters hope until the T20 World Cup 2024.
Concern for Allan Donald while Pandya heals from his injuries
All-rounder Hardik Pandya of India hasn't played in a World Cup since he twisted his ankle against Bangladesh, which halted his progress nearly three years ago.However, each time it seems like he could be on the verge of recovering, something goes wrong again. He was supposed to be ready for the match against Sri Lanka in the first week of November 2023, but his injury prevented him from playing in the series between South Africa and Australia. In addition, he was not fully fit for the Afghanistan Twenty20 Internationals.It's possible that he won't play in the first half of the next Indian Premier League 2024 if things continue the way they are.Based on the available data, it appears like Hardik had his second major injury of his career in September 2020. He was forced to miss the tournaments for over a year after his prior injuries. However, upon his return, he had gained strength and vitality from a revitalized back. Allan Donald, a former South African pacer, is concerned about Hardik in the meantime. He says that no matter how much he works on it, Hardik's bowling movement doesn't make for the most pleasant load and release.It's significant because, as part of our early screening program, we screen young children by doing extensive video analyses upon their entry into the system to ensure that, biomechanically speaking, they are perfectly healthy and unlikely to suffer any major injuries. Thus, it is crucial to begin proper screening at an early age, as reported by Hindustan Times and Donald to Sportstar.
