Sodhi suggests Hardik Pandya as India captain against Sri Lanka

Former India cricketer Reetinder Singh Sodhi has suggested Hardik Pandya as India’s limited-overs captain in absence of regular captain Virat Kohli in the Sri Lanka tour which is scheduled to start from July 13.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-165182 size-full" src="https://www.bdcrictime.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/hardik-pandya-.jpg" alt="Sodhi suggests Hardik Pandya as India captain against Sri Lanka" width="741" height="441" />

Earlier this week, The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) president Sourav Ganguly announced that India would go to Sri Lanka to play limited-overs series. He also confirmed that they will send completely a different team there as compared to the one which will travel for England for five-match Test series against the hosts and ICC World Test Championship final against New Zealand.

So, there will be much young players, uncapped players and some of experienced players also in the team undoubtedly. In Sri Lanka, India will play three-match ODI series and three-match T20I series.

Speaking to India News, Sodhi said Hardik could lead India in the series as he’s enough experiences in international cricket.

"Who will captain - Hardik Pandya? I feel he can be given experience at the helm because he has played very good cricket. The best thing is we have so many options that we can put together a second Indian team," said Sodhi.

"One team will be playing Test cricket, Virat Kohli and his boys. And the other team will have the likes of Hardik Pandya and Chahal [Yuzvendra], and aspirants like Devdutt Padikkal and Ravi Bishnoi can get chances. So, it is a very good move by Sourav Ganguly and the BCCI. This tour can prove to be the ace in the pack before the T20 World Cup," added Reetinder Sodhi.

He also added that the tour will be for youngsters as they can get the chance to fulfill their dreams. Also Kohli will keep his eye on the series from England for T20 World Cup selection. "This tour will be a blessing for all these youngsters. It is possible selectors might be eyeing guys like Harpreet Brar. So, Virat Kohli will be putting in the hard yards in England but his eyes will also be in Sri Lanka because he will definitely want to judge which other players can be considered for the T20 World Cup," concluded Reetinder Sodhi.

IPL 2021: Kumble reveals why Bishnoi didn't play the first 4 games

Ravi Bishnoi was a valuable bowling weapon for Kings XI Punjab (now Punjab Kings) in the 2020 edition of the Indian Premier League, hosted in the United Arab Emirates. The young right-arm leg-spinner represented the franchise in all 14 games of the league stage. The youngster played a pivotal role throughout the tournament as he bagged as many as 12 wickets.

<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-164061" src="https://www.bdcrictime.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Screenshot_10-3.jpg" alt="IPL 2021: Kumble reveals why Bishnoi didn't play the first 4 games" width="932" height="627" />

He was praised for his impeccable bowling performance in the tournament. The young prospect also maintained a pretty decent economy rate of 7.37 and a bowling average of 31.33. Nonetheless, the youngster was taken from the team's playing XI in their first 4 fixtures of the ongoing season.

Bishnoi warmed the bench as he didn't feature against the likes of Rajasthan Royals, Delhi Capitals, Chennai Super Kings, and Sunrisers Hyderabad respectively. Meanwhile, his absence was clearly felt as Punjab lost 3 out of their 4 games. Hence, questions were raised over the exclusion of Ravi Bishnoi from the side.

The leg-spinner made a mark for himself in the game against Mumbai Indians. The youngster showcased his mettle against the defending champions at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai, Ravi picked two crucial wickets of Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav. He also conceded just 21 runs in his four overs at an economy rate of 5.2.

Meanwhile, PBKS head coach Anil Kumble spoke about Ravi Bishnoi's absence in the first four games adding that he was not at his best when he joined the camp. The former Indian chief coach also revealed that in the past days he was working on technical aspects with the leg-spinner.
<h3>Anil Kumble heaps praise on Ravi Bishnoi</h3>
“Bish (Bishnoi) played all the matches in the last season… when he came here, I thought he was not the same bowler we had seen last year. I worked on his run-up and a few other things because he was drifting down the leg side even in practice games. That’s why he didn’t start the tournament earlier,” the leg-spinner Kumble said after Punjab’s 9-wicket win in Chennai.

“But, I think, over the last week or so, his commitment, his focus is now sorted; he’s back. It’s wonderful to see him (bowl so well). He’s always a competitor; you can see that. And to pick up a couple of wickets in an important game like this is great,” he added.

“Yes, it will give a lot of confidence to all of us (defeating Mumbai); Mayank (Agarwal) and (KL) Rahul putting up that 40-plus partnership and then the Universe Boss (Chris Gayle) and Rahul finishing things off. Overall, really happy that things went well and now we’re looking forward to the next leg in Ahmedabad,” he added.

IPL 2021: KL Rahul reveals Bishnoi did not play the first few games

Punjab Kings captain KL Rahul is a happy man in the wake of his team's overall performance against the defending champions in Chennai. PBKS bowlers hit the right line and length and maintained their subtle bowling variations throughout the game. As a result, they were able to keep the MI batsmen silent most of the time.

<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-163974" src="https://www.bdcrictime.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Screenshot_3-6.jpg" alt="IPL 2021: KL Rahul reveals Bishnoi did not play the first few games" width="870" height="568" />

The left-handed opening batsman scored 473 runs in the 15 games he played with an average of 31.5 and a strike rate of 124.8.

Ruturaj Gaikwad also emerged as another promising opening batsman. The right-handed opening batsman started the season on a very much negative note as he was tested positive with coronavirus. Earlier he got a couple of chances in the team and failed to deliver. Later after a terrible performance by CSK in the season, Gaikwad was given the chance to open the innings. There he turned around his fortunes and scored hattrick half-centuries. On the whole, he scored 204 runs with an average of 51 and a strike rate of 120.71.

The wicket-keeper batsman announced his arrival to the season with a 99 against Royal Challengers Bangalore. Overall he scored 516 runs with an average of 57.33 and a strike rate of 145.76. With his performance, Ishan Kishan is also started to knock on the doors of BCCI.

Kolkata Knight Riders left-handed batsman Nitish Rana had a decent season this year. The team management was continuously shuffling the batting order and he was made as an opener at one point. Despite these challenges, he managed to score 352 runs with an average of 28.17 and a strike rate of 135.56.

<h3>3. Spinners - Rahul Tewatia, Ravi Bishnoi, Varun Chakravarthy</h3>

Rajasthan Royals' all-rounder Rahul Tewatia has emerged as a sensational player in the season. He started off the season well with three wickets against Chennai Super Kings. But he emerged as a hero with his brilliant finish with the bat against Kings XI Punjab. He scored a decent 255 runs with an average of 42.50 and a strike rate of 139.34.

Right from the start of the tournament, he challenged batsmen and scalped big wickets like MS Dhoni, Virat Kohli. He came into the limelight with his five-wicket haul against Delhi Capitals. Overall he picked 17 wickets with an economy of 7.10

<h3>4.Fast bowlers - Shivam Mavi, Kartik Tyagi, T Natarajan</h3>
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-151708" src="https://www.bdcrictime.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/T_Natarajan_SRH_ipl2020_ipl_website.jpg" alt="" width="800" height="400" />

Kolkata Knight Riders fast bowler Shivam Mavi had a quiet offseason. But managed to deliver some spells to watch for. He scalped only 9 wickets in the eight games he played with a pretty decent economy of 8.15. He is been good compared to some other fast bowling options.

He showed some good fast bowling exhibition and turned people towards him. He picked up nine wickets in the ten games he played and made a promising start to his IPL career.

T Natarajan is yet another find of the season without any doubt. He became into the limelight with his accurate yorkers right from the start of the tournament.

IPL 2020: Best uncapped XI of the season

IPL 2020: An appeal to 'How’s That?' covers all ways of being out

An appeal by the fielding side covers all types of dismissals, according to Fraser Stewart, the Lord’s Indoor Cricket Centre Manager.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-151976" src="https://www.bdcrictime.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/rahul-bishnoi-300x199.jpg" alt="IPL 2020: An appeal to 'How’s That?' covers all ways of being out " width="686" height="455" />

The situation arose on Thursday when an appeal for LBW and a run out occured at the same time during an IPL match between the Sunrisers Hyderabad and the Kings XI Punjab in Dubai.

In the 16th over (bowled by Kings XI Punjab's Ravi Bishnoi) of Sunrisers Hyderabad batting (Bairstow and Abdul Samad), the appeal was sent upstairs and though Samad was apparently run out, umpire ruled Bairstow LBW.

Obviously at the fall of wicket, the ball became dead and Samad survived.

31.4 Appeal “How’s That?”

"An appeal to “How’s That?” covers all ways of being out. So, an appeal by the fielding is for all methods of dismissal – they do not have to appeal twice if there are two possible forms of dismissal,” Fraser Stewart, speaking exclusively over telephone from the Lord's explained.

"As for the DRS protocols, that is for the Governing Body to answer, as DRS is not part of MCC’s Laws of Cricket,” he further clarified.

Kings XI Punjab's youngster Ravi Bishnoi has expressed his desire to get the wicket of Rajasthan Royals skipper Steve Smith's wicket as the dream wicket. He has set all his abilities and tactics to get the big fish revealing that he desperately wants to dismiss Smith in this year's Indian Premier League (IPL).

<blockquote>"Steve Smith because he plays well against spin and he is also number 1 Test batsman," Bishnoi told Mayank Agarwal, in a video shared on IPL's official website.</blockquote>
The king's XI Punjab spinner will face Smith in their next match so the youngster will have the opportunity to make his dream come true in the next match itself as KXIP will now take on Rajasthan Royals on September 27. Although , Smith is having an tremendous form as he scored 69 runs in his first match against Chennai Super kings so it will be some sort of difficult goal for the youngster.

The Rahul-led side has played two matches so far and lost the first match against Delhi Capitals in a Super Over but made a scintillating comeback in the league with a massive 97-run win against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) on Thursday.

The youngster got chance to feature in the biggest cash rich league from a very congenial scope. Therefore, Bishnoi expressed elation over being a part of IPL and said: "I am feeling very good as it is a very big stage for a youngster like me. I used to watch it on the TV and playing in it is every player's dream."

Ravi Bishnoi misconducts

Ravi Bishnoi was one of the biggest takeaways for India from their Under-19 World Cup campaign this year, but the way he reacted in the final against Bangladesh is inviting criticism.<img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-139540" src="https://www.bdcrictime.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/135890-ggblrobmha-1580810704-1024x538.jpg" alt="Ravi Bishnoi misconducts" width="640" height="336" />

The spinner ended the age-level competition being the highest wicket-taker, claiming 17 wickets, but what everyone is talking about now is the unruly scenes he presented in the Potchefstroom final against Bangladesh.

Because of his misbehaviour during and after the game on Sunday, he was charged besides four other players by the International Cricket Council (ICC). While the others were charged with violating Article 2.21 of ICC's Code of Conduct only, Bishnoi was slapped with a further charge of breaching Article 2.5.

The second charge is because of a separate incident during the match, where he used language, actions or gestures which disparage or which could provoke an aggressive reaction from a batter following the dismissal of Avishek Das in the 23rd over.

Even the young cricketer's father is shocked seeing the misconducts of his son. He also told mid-day.com that Bishnoi's mother has not been eating anything since getting to know about all this.

"I wonder what happened to my son, because he is one of my calmest children," said Bishnoi's father Mangilal Bishnoi, who has two sons and two daughters.

"He [Bishnoi] explained the sequence of events and the circumstances when he lost his cool while trying to save his teammate, who was being attacked by the Bangladeshi players," he said before adding, "My wife has not eaten anything since yesterday."

Ravi Bishnoi's childhood coach advises: "Play the game in right spirit"

BIPIN DANI

Ravi Bishnoi's parents (mother: Shivary Devi and father: Mangilal) have been crying since the time they heard about their son's name in media for the wrong reasons.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-139461" src="https://www.bdcrictime.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/ravi-bishnoi-300x172.jpg" alt="Ravi Bishnoi's childhood coach advises: &quot;Play the game in right spirit&quot;" width="759" height="435" />

The 19-year-old leg break googly bowler is one among the five (three from Bangladesh and India's Akash Singh) having been charged for the misbehavior during and after the Under-19 World Cup final.

"I wonder what and how did this happen with my son because he is one of my calmest children. (Ravi has two sisters and one brother, all elders to him). He (Ravi) explained to me the sequence of events and the circumstances when he lost his cool when he was trying to save his team mate, who was attacked by the Bangladeshi players,” Ravi's father, Mangilal Bishnoi, a head master in a government school, said exclusively over telephone.

"My wife has not even eaten food since yesterday.”

Ravi Bishnoi's one of the two childhood coaches Pradhyot Singh, (the other being Shahrukh Pathan) was equally surprised.
<blockquote>"My advice to him would be that cricket is a gentleman's game. It should not have happened,”</blockquote>
Singh, speaking exclusively, said.

"What I hear from the reports is that Bangladeshi bowlers started. They were using abusive language. Their one bowler also threw ball at our Divyansh Saxena. Their way of celebrating every India wicket was not acceptable..."

"Indian players were also charged up with all these...but I have been knowing Ravi since last ten years. He has always been calm and composed".

"He is a very obedient boy. Once he went with his friends playing dandiya and I had scolded him to not go for late-night dandiya and he has not been going anywhere without asking me".

"I spoke to him about the recent incident and he has promised to me that he would never ever do this...He loves to play for India and is proud to be a cricketer", the coach concluded.

Ravi Bishnoi showing unnecessary aggression

While three Bangladeshi and two Indian players have already been sanctioned by the International Cricket Council (ICC) for their delinquency during the final of the 2020 Under-19 World Cup, Indian greats say they are still quite shocked by the youngsters' conduct.<img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-139448" src="https://www.bdcrictime.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Capture-5-1024x574.png" alt="Ravi Bishnoi showing unnecessary aggression" width="640" height="359" />

Many believe sledging in cricket is like a "gift" by the Australians, but according to the Indian former cricketers, nobody can cross the limit even for the sake of competitiveness.

Giving the perfect example of West Indies who never had to sledge to show their aggression, but their game spoke for themselves, India's first World Cup winning captain admitted he was not prepared for what he saw by both Indian and Bangladeshi players in the Potchefstroom final on Sunday.

"That look, eyebrows raised, hands on hips, and a vicious bouncer past your nose would give the message," Kapil told The Hindu.

He also added that it is okay to be aggressive on the field, but it has to be measured.

"I welcome aggression. Nothing wrong in it. But it has to be controlled aggression. You can't cross the line of decency in the name of being competitive. Personally, I would say it was unacceptable that youngsters put up such obnoxious display on the cricket field," he noted.

Meanwhile the former India captain Mohammad Azharuddin also thought it was not the fault from one particular team, rather he was highly critical of both the teams.

"How can you do this? You just keep abusing the opponent, right through the game, in the name of playing hard. Australians played hard always but without getting personal. We had fast bowlers who did not believe in using cuss words to pump themselves up or upset the batsmen," he said.

Sunil Gavaskar, another all-time great of India, has also taken his stance against the poor behaviour on the field by modern cricketers.

While a total of five players were sanctioned, spinner Ravi Bishnoi was the most animated of the lot, and so he was handed two extra demerits points for the manner in which he celebrated the dismissal of Avishek Das in the 23rd over of the Bangladesh innings, which breached Article 2.5.

But Kapil thinks such gutso celebration is completely unnecessary. "When you have got the batsman out what is the need of cursing him. Haven't you won your battle by getting him out?"

Another former India captain Bishan Singh Bedi also slammed the Indian Under-19 team for their misconduct on the field. According to him, opposition's behaviour should never be an excuse for one's own action. "Look, what Bangladesh do is their problem, what our boys do is our problem. You could see that there was abusive language used."
