Indian cricket fans ke liye ek thodi pareshan karne wali khabar samne aa rahi hai. Rishabh Pant ki fitness ko lekar sawal khade ho gaye hain. Side strain ki wajah se hamara star wicketkeeper-batsman ab India A ke teesre fixture se bahar ho gaya hai. Lekin fikr ki baat nahi hai doston, kyunki jab tak Jasprit Bumrah aur Ravindra Jadeja jaise match-winners squad mein hain, tab tak hum kisi bhi team ko unke ghar mein dher karne ka dum rakhte hain.
The Guru Story
Darasal, Rishabh Pant abhi bhi side strain se recover kar rahe hain aur filhal Bengaluru ke Centre of Excellence mein apna rehab poora kar rahe hain. Iska matlab ye hai ki 19 November se shuru hone wali India vs New Zealand Test series ke liye unki availability par thode baadal mandra rahe hain. Unki jagah India A squad mein T20I vice-captain Tilak Varma ko shamil kiya gaya hai, jo Lincoln mein team ke saath jud chuke hain.
Lekin asli maza toh tab aayega jab Jasprit Bumrah apni deadly yorkers aur Ravindra Jadeja apni firki se New Zealand A ke batters ko nachayenge. Ye dono legends Saturday se shuru hone wale fixture mein nazar aayenge. Jadeja toh form mein bhi hain, hal hi mein Ranji Trophy mein unhone Saurashtra ke liye khelte hue 7 wickets jhatke aur ek shandaar century bhi lagayi. Wahi doosri taraf, Dhruv Jurel team ki kaptani jari rakhenge aur agar Rishabh Pant fit nahi hote, toh Jurel hi main Test series mein wicketkeeping gloves pehne nazar aa sakte hain.
Tez gendbaazi mein Prasidh Krishna bhi wapsi kar rahe hain, jo hamstring strain ke baad apni match fitness prove karne ke liye utrenge. Humne dekha hai ki kaise Pakistan ke bowlers thodi si injury par dher ho jate hain, lekin hamare sher hamesha ladne ke liye taiyaar rehte hain. Mohammed Siraj ne bhi India ki ODI squad join kar li hai Wellington mein, jo ki India ke bowling attack ko aur bhi khatarnak banata hai.
Analysis & Numbers
- World Test Championship points table par India ko har haal mein ye dono Tests jitne honge agar unhe June 2027 ke final mein apni jagah pakki karni hai.
- Ravindra Jadeja ne Ranji Trophy ke do matches mein 1 century aur 7 wickets lekar apni match readiness prove kar di hai.
- 2020 mein pichli baar jab India vs New Zealand Test series hui thi, tab India ko 2-0 se haar jhelna padi thi. Is baar badla lene ka sahi mauka hai.
- Mohammed Siraj ne unofficial Test mein 35 overs fenke aur 4 wickets liye, jo dikhata hai ki unka workload management on-point hai.
The Guru Gyan Verdict:
Dekhiye, Rishabh Pant ka na hona ek bada jhatka hai, but Team India is not a one-man show. Humare paas Dhruv Jurel jaisa talent hai jo kisi bhi din game badal sakta hai. Aur jab Bumrah aur Jadeja field par honge, toh New Zealand ko unke home conditions mein bhi nani yaad dila denge. Humein Pakistan ki tarah excuse dena nahi aata, hum seedha ground par performance se jawab dete hain. WTC Final ka raasta Wellington aur Hamilton se hokar gujarta hai, aur Bharat is dominance ke liye puri tarah taiyaar hai.
