Less than two years ago, India’s next generation of players was led by Suresh Raina and Rohit Sharma. At present, though, Virat Kohli has overtaken them as front runner, while Raina and Rohit are still striving to cement permanent spots in the Indian team, writes Aditya Iyer in the Indian Express. No-one but Rohit and Raina can be blamed for how the present has panned out. The reasons are simple: they haven’t made the most of their chances, something that has been illustrated in this ongoing tri-series in Australia. Despite…

MS Dhoni recently said India’s three senior batsmen could not play in the same XI because they concede an extra 20 runs in the field. The Indian Express’ Sandeep Dwivedi says Dhoni is justified in saying that because runs have become easier to score in ODI cricket than stop. Indian batsmen have had a lethargic attitude since the days of Dilip Vengsarkar, he says, and just scoring centuries without contributing in the field may not be enough anymore. The modest coach tried his best to dissuade the young cricketers from…

“Six successive defeats abroad, the imminent departure of three giants, the crumbling of the Test team: Indian cricket faces its most existential interrogation since the match-fixing scandal. But all it seems to bother with is Sachin Tendulkar’s 100th international century. Strange priority,” writes Ashok Malik in the Pioneer. Ever in denial, there are those in India who say MS Dhoni’s team is paying for the pressure of awaiting Tendulkar’s 100th. The pressure, if any, should be on him. Why should it bother the rest of the team, all 10 of…
