The score of 250 has been breached as many as eight times this season of the IPL with shorter boundaries, flat pitches and impact player rule aiding the batting side

Anil Kumble recommends maximising boundary size, more pronounced seam to save bowlers' future | IPL 2024

If the game of cricket remains tilted heavily in the favour of batters, not many youngsters would be lining up to start bowling in a couple of years, fears spin great Anil Kumble. 

<h2>The score of 250 has been breached as many as eight times this season of the IPL with shorter boundaries, flat pitches and impact player rule aiding the batting side</h2>

If the game of cricket remains tilted heavily in the favour of batters, not many youngsters would be lining up to start bowling in a couple of years, fears spin great Anil Kumble, who advocated the need to keep biggest possible boundaries at IPL venues and use of more pronounced seam to restore the balance between bat and ball.
The score of 250 has been breached as many as eight times this season with shorter boundaries, flat pitches and impact player rule aiding the batting side.
Like the great Sunil Gavaskar, Kumble also feels that keeping the maximum possible boundaries length is need of the hour.
"It's been really hard on the bowlers, especially the first half of the tournament. I certainly believe that you need to maximize the boundaries at every venue. Try and keep the biggest boundary possible in that venue," India's leading wicket taker across formats told select media in an interaction arranged by JioCinema.
"For a start, you could move the dugout into the stands. I know you'll lose a few seats but so be it. Then the other aspect is to perhaps look at white ball to have slightly more pronounced seam so that there's a bit more movement.
"We have seen that the ball stops swinging after maybe just the one over or even less than that sometimes. You need a balance between bat and ball. You can't be running in and just going through the motions where in a couple of years you won't have too many youngsters lining up to start bowling.
"Everybody wants to be a batter. You need the bowlers also to be a part of this game and the balance is very important. I expect that will also get addressed," he said.
As per the playing conditions of the IPL, "The playing area shall be a minimum of 150 yards (137.16 metres) from boundary to boundary square of the pitch, with the shorter of the two square boundaries being a minimum 65 yards (59.43 metres).
"The straight boundary at both ends of the pitch shall be a minimum of 70 yards (64.00 metres). Distances shall be measured from the centre of the pitch to be used. In all cases the aim shall be to provide the largest playing area, subject to no boundary exceeding 85 yards (77.71 metres) from the centre of the pitch to be used." Decision to replace Rohit as MI captain was sudden
The call to replace Rohit Sharma with Hardik Pandya has not worked for Mumbai Indians. Kumble feels that transition could have been completed next season when the mega auctions are due.
"The change that happened was a bit sudden. Obviously Rohit Sharma was a part of Mumbai Indians for the last 10 years and then led the team for five titles. Maybe in hindsight, maybe he could have sort of looked at Rohit to manage this year and then maybe Hardik coming in next year but the leadership obviously took that decision. But having said that, I don't think they played good cricket," said Kumble.
Hardik's former team Gujarat Titans also could not make the play-offs but Kumble praised his successor Shubman Gill for his leadership in first year as captain.
"You can't really judge (in one season), I thought he was pretty aggressive in his approach when it came to captaincy. He was always looking to take wickets and again for GT unfortunately a couple of injuries didn't help. Shami was a big miss," said the former India captain.
India have picked four spinners in the T20 World Cup squad with Yuzvendra Chahal making a comeback to be the second wrist spin option alongside Kuldeep Yadav. All-rounder Axar Patel and Ravindra Jadeja also provide spin options.
"I don't know who will be starting in the first game against Ireland. Kuldeep for sure. I don't know what the pitch conditions are. I don't think any Indian team has played in the US other than in Fort Lauderdale. So it all depends on the pitch conditions.
"I guess Kuldeep probably will be the number one spinner in that sense because he's your wrist spinner. I'm sure there'll be one wrist spinner who will play," said Kumble who expects spinners to play a major role in the tournament.

Anil Kumble explains how players should deal with pressure of India-Pakistan matches | IND vs PAK

Former Indian skipper Anil Kumble has suggested a way to combat India-Pakistan pressure. 

Tap to know more. 

India are set to play Pakistan in the Asia Cup and the World Cup in the coming two months, and legendary leg-spinner Anil Kumble said that the key will be to take it as just another game of cricket.

The pressure of an India-Pakistan game is unmatched, both on and off the field and as India inch closer to facing their archrivals, former Indian captain Anil Kumble has suggested a way to deal with this high-octane clash. On August 8, during an event in Bengaluru, he said that the key is to take it as just another game of cricket. 'In our times, the word was 'lose even to Kenya but not to Pakistan'. There was pressure and expectation on the players,' he revealed. 'That's how the matches between India and Pakistan are being played and the key is to treat it as just another match,' the 52-year-old concluded. Beginning with the Asia Cup, India will face Pakistan on September 2. In the ODI World Cup 2023, the two adversaries will clash on October 14.

Former Indian captain Anil Kumble voiced his concern over the treatment meted out to the protesting wrestlers on May 28.

Wrestlers' Protest: Anil Kumble expresses dismay over treatment of India's Olympians

<h2>Former Indian captain Anil Kumble voiced his concern over the treatment meted out to the protesting wrestlers on May 28.</h2>

Former Indian captain Anil Kumble has expressed his dismay over the treatment endured by protesting wrestlers at Jantar Mantar on May 28.
The wrestlers, including Olympic and world championships medallists such as Sakshi Malik, Vinesh Phogat, and Bajrang Punia, were detained by the police when they attempted to march towards the new Parliament building to hold a 'Mahila Mahapanchayat'.
The incident, which took place on Sunday, witnessed unprecedented scenes of police dragging the wrestlers and their supporters after breaching the security cordon.&nbsp;
Despite not having permission from the Delhi Police, the wrestlers tried to march towards the new Parliament building, coinciding with its inauguration by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, which led to their detention.
Kumble, the legendary Indian leg-spinner and the fourth-highest wicket-taker in Test cricket, expressed his belief that the issue could have been resolved through dialogue.
Taking to Twitter, he wrote, "Dismayed to hear about what transpired on the 28th of May with our wrestlers being manhandled. Anything can be resolved through proper dialogue. Hoping for a resolution at the earliest."
Renowned figures such as Olympic champion shooter Abhinav Bindra, Indian football captain Sunil Chhetri, and former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan have also expressed solidarity with the wrestlers.
On Tuesday, the wrestlers, accompanied by hundreds of supporters, <a href="Watch! Wrestlers protest - Grapplers break down as locals stop them from throwing medals in Ganga">reached Haridwar with the intention of immersing their medals won on the global stage</a>, including the Olympics, in the Ganga river. However, they were persuaded by Khaps (local self-governing bodies) and farmer leaders to delay the act for a few more days, in order to address their grievances effectively.

Can the Shikhar Dhawan-Trevor Bayliss duo lead Punjab Kings to their first-ever #IPL title?

Check out what co-owner Ness Wadia said about his team's chances after some big changes to their personnel. 

Punjab Kings have managed to reach the IPL final just once back in 2014 as inconsistency in their results has seen them often miss out on the playoff spots.&nbsp;

IPL team Punjab Kings co-owner Ness Wadia believes that the new Captain-Coach duo of Shikhar Dhawan and Trevor Bayliss can lead the team to their maiden IPL title.
Shikhar Dhawan has replaced Mayank Agarwal as the skipper while Aussie Trevor Bayliss has replaced Anil Kumble as the team coach. Bayliss coached England to their 2019 ODI World Cup title and has also won 2 IPL titles with the Kolkata Knight Riders.
"The expectation from them is to take us to the top four and then hopefully win the Cup. Dhawan and Trevor's rich experience and knowledge should help us," said Wadia
"It is a good combination. Trevor comes with a good track record with England and in the IPL. With all their experience combined, we are hoping it will culminate into results that Punjab need and deserve," he further added.

As England put up a fine all-round show in both the knock-out games in the recently concluded T20 World Cup, former Indian spinner Anil Kumble cited how teams like England and Australia have built depth in their squad across all formats

Anil Kumble suggests India should have separate teams for Tests and white-ball cricket 

Is it time for India to have separate teams and coaches for Tests and white-ball cricket? Anil Kumble certainly thinks so. 
Check out what he said.

Anil Kumble suggests India should have separate teams for Tests and white-ball cricket

England became the first team to hold both the ODI World Cup as well as the T20 World Cup at the same time.

Former Indian captain and coach Anil Kumble has suggested that every team should have separate teams for different formats, highlighting how specialists are required in the T20 format.
After England lifted the recently concluded T20 Cricket World Cup, Kumble weighed in on the need for investing in all-rounders.
He cited the example of England's Liam Livingstone and Australia's Marcus Stoinis, who have been an integral part of their respective team's success.
Stressing that the Indian team also needs to have specialists, he stated, "Definitely, you need separate teams. You need, certainly, T20 specialists. I think what this English team has shown and even the last (T20) World Cup champions Australia have shown is that you need to invest in a lot of all-rounders."
Former Australian all-rounder Tom Moody also added that all the teams should consider splitting their coaches for the Tests and white-ball formats like England have done. England have Brendon McCullum as their Test coach and Matthew Mott as their white-ball coach.

When asked about playing under KL Rahul's captaincy again in the new IPL franchise Lucknow Super Giants, the 21-year-old leggie said that it would be easier for him to adjust since I have already played under him in Punjab.
Notably, Bishnoi was the third player picked by Lucknow Super Giants for Rs 4 crore ahead of the IPL 2022 mega auction scheduled to take place on February 12, 13.

An attempt was made to ensure I don't get the coaching job in 2017: Ravi Shastri

'There was a deliberate attempt to ensure that he did not get his job back in 2017', Ravi Shastri reveals in an interview

Ravi Shastri&nbsp;revealed that after 9 months of him being sacked, BCCI&nbsp;recalled him saying that there was some issue in the team.

Former Team India head coach Ravi&nbsp;Shastri&nbsp;in an interview with the Times of India revealed that there was a deliberate attempt to ensure that he did not get the coaching role back in 2017. Shastri&nbsp;who was appointed as the head coach in 2014, was sacked in 2016 as Sanjay Bangar&nbsp;took over as the interim coach. After Bangar, Kumble took over until 2017.&nbsp; However, Shastri&nbsp;was brought back again after Kumble&nbsp;stepped down post India's ICC Champions Trophy defeat in the final against Pakistan.

It was reported then that the then coach Kumble&nbsp;and skipper Kohli&nbsp;had hit an all-time low. Talking about the controversy due to which he came back, Shastri said, 'I am not pointing fingers at the BCCI, except some individuals. It was literally egg on the faces of those who wanted me out. They opted for someone and 9 months later they came back to the very guy they threw out.' India's World T20 outing was Shastri's&nbsp;last assignment&nbsp;as the head coach for the Team. He has now been replaced by&nbsp;Rahul&nbsp;Dravid.

Ashwin breaks another record, become second fastest bowler to claim 300 wickets in Tests

Ashwin is inching towards becoming India's greatest Test bowler. His numbers are astounding and suggest that the Chennai born spinner is on his way to greatness in Test cricket

Ashwin&nbsp;has been India's lead spinner since his debut in Test cricket and the 81-match veteran continued to fix batters with his flight and carrom&nbsp;ball.
In the recently-concluded Test series, Ashwin&nbsp;became the third-highest wicket-taker for India after he crossed Harbhajan's 417-wicket mark.
Overall, Ashwin&nbsp;has 427 scalps in 81 matches with 30 five-wicket and seven 10-wicket hauls.&nbsp;The off-spinner has an impressive record at home, having 300 wickets at an average of 21.70.
For many,&nbsp;Ashwin&nbsp;is a bowler who exploits home conditions but the Chennai-born spinner has played 32 away Tests and picked 127 wickets.
Ashwin&nbsp;has registered his name in the list of all-time greats such as&nbsp;Kapil Dev and Anil Kumble&nbsp;with his performances. He is just seven wickets away from Kapil&nbsp;Dev's&nbsp;434.&nbsp;

Ravi Shastri&nbsp;retires as Team India's head coach with his tenure coming to an end after a disastrous outing at World T20 in the UAE. Despite not winning a single ICC&nbsp;title with Virat&nbsp;Kohli as the captain, can the Ravi&nbsp;Shastri-era still be called the best for Team India?&nbsp;&nbsp;
Virat Kohli and Ravi Shastri's partnership might have ended without an ICC trophy but their stint has been an impressive one.&nbsp;
Enviable home record
Ever since Shastri was appointed as the full-time coach of the Indian team on July 13, 2017, India became a force to reckon with at home. They played 137 international games on home soil, out of which, they lost only 37.&nbsp;
2 big Test series wins in Australia
India hadn't won a Test series in Australia in their 71 years of Test cricket history but that changed under Shastri. Virat Kohli's men conquered The Aussies in their own backyard in 2018-19 and became the first Asian team to achieve that feat. Shastri had then termed this milestone as big as the 1983 World Cup victory. India proved that it wasn't a flash in the pan as they breached the Australian fortress once again with a 2-1 Test series win a couple of years later.&nbsp;
WTC final
Under Ravi Shastri and Virat Kohli, India emerged as a Test cricket powerhouse. With in-form batters, quality spinners and a lethal pace attack, India reached the final of the inaugural World Test Championship. Though they stumbled on the final hurdle against New Zealand&nbsp;1 match can't take away what they did in whites during the 2 years leading up to the WTC final.
Leading a Test series in England
Ravi Shastri had often termed the Indian team of the present as the best travelling side in the world and Kohli's men walked the talk under him. Team India proved their mettle&nbsp;in England too, as they led the 5-match Test series 2-1, before the final match in Manchester was postponed due to Covid-19 cases in the Indian camp. On the tour, India conquered The Oval in 4th Test, their 1st Test win at the venue since 1971.
