BCCI News / Tantrums will not work... everyone will have to play Ranji Trophy Jay Shahs big announcements

BCCI News: The third test match of the series between India and England is to be played in Rajkot, a day before this match a big event took place on the ground. There was discussion about what would be India's playing-11 in Rajkot, but what made headlines were the important points of BCCI Secretary Jai Shah. Jai Shah talked about many issues in the program held at this ground, which is currently a topic of discussion in Indian cricket.

First of all, let's talk about T20 World Cup, here Jay Shah made it clear that Rohit Sharma will be the captain of India in T20 World Cup. That is, he put an end to the speculations that Hardik Pandya is not being promoted yet, although Hardik Pandya will be the vice-captain of the team in the T20 World Cup. In such a situation, after the World Cup or after the departure of Rohit Sharma, only Hardik Pandya can be made the captain of the team.

Another important thing is that it is not certain that Virat Kohli will play the T20 World Cup right now. According to Jay Shah, a decision is yet to be taken on what will be the role of Virat Kohli in the T-20 World Cup. Perhaps Virat Kohli's performance in this year's IPL will largely depend on whether he gets a place in the T20 World Cup or not.

Jay Shah also expressed his feelings regarding Virat Kohli's exclusion from the England Test series.

Jay Shah has called it an important issue and said that he will write a letter to the players to participate in Ranji Trophy. Jai Shah said that this is an important issue. All the central contract players have been informed over phone and I will also write to them. If your captain and coach instructs you to play, you have to follow it and participate in red-ball cricket. Tantrums will not work. This instruction applies to all young and fit players.

Said this on Ishaan Kishan

Ishan Kishan is away from the Indian team after withdrawing from the South Africa tour. He was not part of the Afghanistan series and was not selected for the England Test, with head coach Rahul Dravid saying that Kishan needed to play some cricket to get back into the team. Jay Shah said about Ishan Kishan that he is a young player... I am not saying about him specifically playing in Ranji Trophy because it will apply equally to all players.

This statement was given on Virat not playing in England series

Jay Shah said it is important to support players when they need leave for personal reasons, as is the case with Virat Kohli, who has decided to skip the ongoing five-match Test series against England. Is. He said that if someone is asking for personal leave after 15 years, then it is his right to ask for it. Virat is not that kind of player who will ask for leave without any reason. We must support our players and trust them.
