He is not a child… Shastri cursed the Indian all-rounder after the humiliating defeat

New Delhi. After the crushing defeat of the Indian cricket team in the Centurion Test, veteran cricketers are cosing the players of Team India. South Africa beat India by an innings and 32 runs in three days, ending South Africa’s dream of winning a Test series for the first time. Shardul Thakur was selected as an all-rounder in this Test match. But Shardul disappointed with both bat and ball. He could neither score runs nor take wickets in time. He took only 1 wicket (Dean Elgar) in the Centurion Test for 101 runs. His bowling economy during this period was 5.3. He was the most expensive among the 5 Indian bowlers. He was able to score 24 and 2 runs with the bat. Ravi Shastri got angry after seeing this poor performance of Team India’s former head coach Shardul. Shastri even said that Shardul is not a child, but a fourth fast bowler.

The Indian team entered the Centurion Test match with 4 fast bowlers including Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammad Siraj, Ishtan Krishna and Mohammad Siraj. On the pitch where the South African fast bowlers troubled the Indian batsmen with their brilliant bowling, the Indian fast bowlers were seen sweating for wickets. Commenting on this match, Ravi Shastri said, ‘India lacked experience in the bowling department. Out of which only two were experienced Bumrah and Siraj. Team India lost Shami here. Shardul Thakur is not a child. He is the fourth seamer. You need a specialist third fast bowler overseas who can make a big difference.

Elgar will lead the team in the farewell Test, a shock to the South African cricket team that beat India.

Shastri advised Arshdeep Singh to play Ranji matches
India’s first innings ended in 245 runs. In reply, South Africa scored 408 for 9 in the first innings on the back of Dean Elgar’s 185. South Africa had a first innings lead of 163 runs. Team India was bundled out for 131 runs in the second innings. South Africa’s fast bowlers took all the wickets in both India’s innings. Shastri advised left-arm fast bowler Arshdeep Singh to play the Ranji Trophy match. During the commentary, fellow commentator Mark Nicholls suggested Arshdeep Singh’s name to Shastri to be picked up in the Test. On this, Shastri asked if Arshdeep Singh could bowl long spells. Has he played enough Ranji matches? I want him to play as many Ranji matches and first class matches as possible.

Second Test between India and South Africa from January 3
The second and last Test match of the series will be played between India and South Africa in the new year. The two teams will face each other from January 3 at the Newlands ground in Cape Town. The Indian team will look to win the second Test to level the series while the hosts will try to sweep the visitors in the series. South Africa will be eyeing a win in Dean Elgar’s farewell Test, while India will be looking to end the tour with a win.
