DESIRE OF REPRESENTING INDIA

News & Events

Harbhajan Singh has shown a desire to represent the Men in Blue once again in the upcoming T20 World Cup. Talking to ESPNCricinfo, Singh said that at the time he is in good shape, and if he has a good IPL, then he can become part of the team. “I’m ready. If I can bowl well in IPL, which is a very difficult tournament for bowlers because the grounds are smaller, and all the top players in world cricket play in the IPL… it is very challenging to bowl against them and if you can do well against them in IPL, you can do well in international cricket. I have bowled predominantly in the powerplay and middle overs and got wickets,” he told ESPNcricinfo.

Pink ball battle

Indian team is scheduled to tour Australia for a four-match Test series later this year and Australian pacer, Mitchell Starc believes that a solitary Pink Ball Test would do a lot of favor to both the sides and the game as well. Start feels that Pink Ball has hit a chord with the audiences. Negating the idea of a full Pink Ball summer, Starc said that a single match would, however, be more profitable. “I don’t think ... they should all of a sudden have a pink-ball summer, that’s something I’d be heavily against,” he told reporters on a video call. “[But] I think absolutely a pink-ball Test in this series against India is a great thing.”
