Dual commitments and potential return

Both Yash Dayal and Dhruv Jurel have been named in the Rest of India squad but may miss the Irani Cup clash if they are selected for India’s second Test against Bangladesh, which overl??aps with the Irani Cup.

Sarfaraz Khan, part of the Indian Test squad, is set to represent Mumbai if he is not included in India’s playing XI for the second Test. His inclusion in the Mumbai squad, led by Ajinkya Rahane, will strength??en the team as they prepare to face RoI in the Irani Cup. Sarfaraz has consistently been among the top performers in domestic cricket, and his form will be crucial for Mumbai.

“Dhruv Jurel and Yash Dayal have been selected in the Rest of India squad and their participation is subject to them not being involved in the second Test match against Bangladesh in Kanpur. The 2nd Test will begin from 27th September. Sarfaraz Khan who has been retained in the Team India squad for the 2nd Test, will be released to represent the Mumbai team subject to him not being involved in the second Test match against Bangladesh in Kanpur,” the BCCI said in a statement.

Emerging stars and performers from Duleep Trophy

Several players who shone in the Duleep Trophy 2024 have been rewarded with places in the Rest of India squad. Sai Sudharsan, a standout performer with the bat, and left-arm spinner Manav Suthar are among the new faces in the team. However, senior batter Mayank Agarwal, w??ho captained India A to a Du??leep Trophy win, was surprisingly left out of the squad.

Rest of India squad for the Irani Cup against Mumbai:

Ruturaj Gaikwad (c), Abhimanyu Easwaran (vc), Sai Sudharsan, Devdutt Padikkal, Dhruv Jurel (wk)*, Isha?n Kishan (wk), Manav Suthar, Saransh Jain, Prasidh Krishna, Mukesh Kumar, Yash Dayal*, Ricky Bhui, Shashwat Rawat, Khaleel Ahmed, Rahul Chahar.

The Duleep Trophy 2024 is currently set for a thriller between India A and India B, but it’s been a one-sided affair so far. India A’s bowling unit has dominated proceedings, leaving India B’s batters struggling to find their rhythm.

Yashasvi Jaiswal’s lone resistance

Amidst the carnage, Yashasvi Jaiswal stood out as the?? lone warrior for India B. His elegant strokes and positive intent provided a glimmer of hope for his team. However, once he departed for a well-made 30, the batting order collapsed like a house of cards.

Akash Deep’s stellar performance in India A’s onslaught

One of the standout performers for India A has been Akash Deep. The pacer in the first and second session was consistently accurate, bowling at perfect lines and lengths, and has picked up crucial wickets. Hi??s ability to extract movement fr??om the pitch has made him a nightmare for the India B batters.

Nitish Kumar Reddy falls victim to Deep’s masterclass

Deep’s highlight of the match was a sensational delivery that dismissed Nitish Kumar Reddy. The pacer b??owled a length ball on the middle stump, which nipped away after pitching, and beat the outside edge to castle the top of off stump. It was a classic example of precision and skill, leaving the batter st??unned and the bowler jubilant.

India B batters exposed on a green top

The Duleep Trophy pitch has been prepared with an eye on the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Series in Australia. The green top has certainly exposed the technical deficiencies of some of the Indian batters. India B’s captain, Abhimanyu Easwaran, was dismissed for just 13, and even Yashasvi Jaiswal, despite his earl??y promise, strug??gled to control his aggression and was sent packing for 30.

Middle order collapse

The middle order of India B has been particularly vulnerable. Sarfaraz Khan, Nitish Kumar Reddy, and star batter Rishabh Pant have all failed to ma??ke a significant contribution. With India B struggling at 124/7 till the tea break, it seems highly unlikely that they can recover from this precarious po?sition.

As the Duleep Trophy progresses, it will be interesting to see if India B can find a way to bounce back. However, given the dominance of India A’s bowling attack, it appears that they will have their work cut out.

India B under the captaincy of Abhimanyu Easwaran, India B has a strong blend of youth and experience. The team will rely heavily on the batting prowess of Yashasvi Jaiswal and Sarfaraz Khan.

Key players to watch

Chinnaswamy Stadium is expected to offer a good balance between bat and ball, making it a challenging venue for both teams.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) will be reexamining the two-bouncer and impact player rule before the upcoming Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy (SMAT) 2025, potentially impacting the Indian Premier League (IPL). Originally introduced on a trial basis during India’s domestic T20 competitions, the rule was also implemented in the 2024 edition of the IPL. It was particularly advantageous for bowlers on flat pitches with short boundaries, especially with the introductio?n of the impact player rule. Notably, international cricket limits bowlers to just one bouncer per over.

Ongoing debate on Impact player rule

According to the Cricbuzz report, The off-season has sparked extensive discussions about the impact player rule, with various opinions emerging from broadcasters, franchises, and players. The future of both the impact player and two-bouncer rules in the SMAT remains uncertain. Th?e outcomes of this tournament are expected to play a significant role in determining whether these rules will be retained for the IPL.

“We recognize the importance of the Impact Player and two-bouncer rules, but no final decision has been made.” A state cricket unit official remarked was quot??????????????????????????ed as saying by the Cricbuzz.

Understanding the Impact player rule

The BCCI introduced the impact player rule before the last season, requiring teams to announce a playing XI plus a 12th player after the toss. This 12th player could be substituted for any of the original XI during the match. Although the rule aimed to add a dynamic element to the game, many players expressed concerns that it diminished the role of all-rounders. While some cricket experts and support staff have voiced support for the rule, the majority of opinions have been critical.

Context of the two-bouncers rule

The two-bouncer rule permits bowlers to deliver two bouncers per over in limited-overs games, whereas the ICC allows only? one bouncer per over in these formats, with two permitt?ed in multi-day matches. The BCCI introduced this rule to strike a balance between bat and ball, but they are now reassessing its viability. The two-bouncer rule had a limited impact in its debut season, as it was overshadowed by other playing conditions and the aggressive strategies employed by batters, bolstered by the flexibility provided by the impact player rule. The season witnessed record-breaking scores, leading to criticism from various quarters, particularly regarding the impact player rule, which some believed undermined the role of all-rounders.

Upcoming decisions on key rules

The SMAT 2025 is slated to run from November 23 to December 15, and state associations are eagerly awaiting the BCCI’s decisions on the impact player and two-bouncer rules. Although the BCCI has already distributed the playing conditions and other documents for the domestic season, specific conditions for SMAT have not yet been provided. The report further stated that, the BCCI has assured state units that the “Men’s T20 Playing Conditions will be shared shortly.” The BCCI is expected to finalize its decisions regarding the playing conditions and retention? rules by early September.

Following in the footsteps of his illustrious fathe?r, Samit’s recent rise highli?ghts his potential as a promising young talent in the cricketing world.

Samit Dravid’s maiden India Under-19 call-up

The series will see the? young Indian cricketers play three white-ball matches in Puducherry followed by two red-ball games in Chennai. The series offers a key opportunity for Samit and his te?ammates to prove their mettle on an international stage.

Samit has shown promise with the bat, particularly in the ongoing Maharaja Trophy T20, where he is playing for the Mysore Warriors. Though still early in his career, he has delivered some steady performances, amassing 82 runs across seven innings.

On Tuesday, a significant milestone was achieved in the world of cricket as Jay Shah, the BCCI secretary, ascended to the position of ICC Chairman. Elected unopposed, Shah’s appointment marks a watershed moment for the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), solidify?ing its status as a cricketing superpower.

BCCI’s dominance reaches new heights in world cricket

The BCCI’s influence over the ICC has been steadily growing, but Shah’s appointment is poised to elevate it to unprecedented levels. While Cricket Australia and the England Cricket Board have traditionally held significant sway, the BCCI is now expected to shape the ICC’s administrative and financial decisions.

Implications for India-Pakistan cricket relations

The strained political relationship between India and Pakistan is likely to cast a long shadow over Shah’s tenure. The PCB’s aspirations to host the Champions Trophy entirely in Pakistan could face challenges due to Shah’s close ties to the Indian government. It’s conceivable that Shah might play a pivotal role in ensuring that some matches of the tournament are relocated outside of Pakistan.

Government influence on cricket diplomacy

Shah’s familial connection to India’s Home Minister, Amit Shah, underscores the deep intertwining of politics and cricket in the country. The Indian government’s stance on touring Pakistan is likely to remain firm, and it’s highly improbable that the Indian Men’s team will be allowed to visit the neighbouring country for the Champions Trophy.

A hybrid model for the Champions Trophy

Given the Indian government’s stance, the ICC may now be inclined to accommodate India’s request for a hybrid model. This could involve a portion of the Champions Trophy matches being held outside of Pakistan, potentially in neutral venues.

Champions Trophy 2025: The schedule takes shape

The PCB has unveiled the schedule for the Champions Trophy, which has received ICC approval. The tournament is set to kick off on February 19, 2025, with a clash between New Zealand and Pakistan.

As Shah assumes the reins of the ICC, the cricketing world eagerly awaits to see how his leadership will shape the future of the sport. His appointment marks a new era for t?he ICC, one that is likely to be dominated by the BCCI and influenced by the comp??lex geopolitical landscape of the subcontinent.
