It was an optional practice day for the Indian cricket team in Adelaide. Although the India vs Australia 3rd Test is in Brisbane, Team India has chosen to stay back. Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant, and Shubman Gill hit the nets while fast bowlers Mohammed Siraj and Jasprit Bumrah skipped practice. Kohli also decided to bowl some of his ‘dangerous’ slow medium pace to Gill. Let’s move to franchise cricket. We have some Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Pakistan Super League (PSL) news. Lastly, a domestic development about the upcoming elections of the Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA).
Jasprit Bumrah injured?
Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj chose to skip practice before the India vs Australia 3rd Test. Both bowled over 20 overs each in Adelaide and decided to kick their feet up. However, this had led to talks of Bumrah being injured. Former Australian pacer Damien Fleming thinks the pacer wasn’t just cramping in Adelaide and also cited his oddly slow first over in the second innings.
Virat Kohli changes his technique
After his twin failures in Adelaide, Virat Kohli is changing a few things. Former Indian spinner Harbhajan Singh has revealed that Kohli was working on his backfoot play after looking indecisive in the 2nd Test. Kohli seemed to be adamant about playing everything on the front foot in Adelaide and wants to change things up in Brisbane.
RCB wanted Chahal & Shami
RCB wanted to get Yuzvendra Chahal, Arshdeep Singh/Mohammed Shami, Mitchell Starc, and Venkatesh Iyer, among other players, at the IPL 2025 auction. This is according to their pre-auction plans, which they revealed in a newly posted video. However, they managed to neither of them. The ones they aimed for and got were Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Liam Livingstone, Jitesh Sharma, and Josh Hazlewood.
