The "composed" set of newcomers in the Indian team don't need frequent advice, they need just a supportive environment to excel, said skipper Rohit Sharma after the young guns played a major part in the hosts' series-sealing win over England in the fourth Test here on Monday. Playing his second Test, wicketkeeper-batter Dhruv Jurel produced a player of the match performance with the bat in both the innings. His 90 in the first innings allowed India to get close to England's 353 while his 72-run stand with Shubman Gill in the second innings helped the hosts tide past tense moments in the run chase. Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sarfaraz Khan and Akash Deep were also among the fresh blood who made an impact in the series.

World Cup-winning India all-rounder Yuvraj Singh sees nothing wrong in Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli returning to T20 fold after a 14-month hiatus with an eye on the upcoming World Cup. The duo was named in the ongoing three-match T20 series against Afghanistan, India's last international assignment before the World Cup in the USA and the Caribbean. Their inclusion began a debate if it was a progressive step. Yuvraj was not impressed with the hullabaloo around the move and dismissed it by uttering the lyrics of famous Kishore Kumar-song: "Kuchh toh log kahenge, logon ka kaam hai kehna." His response thus underscored the importance of disregarding critics and staying focused on the task at hand. "It's because they play all the three formats, they are back after 14 months. You have to manage your workload if you play the three formats. It's a question for the selectors." Rohit is a great captain =============== Yuvraj hailed Rohit as the leader of the Indian team.

When you have a squad that offers flexibility, we can take a call that is in the best interest of the team," Dravid said on the eve of the match. "We are certainly happy with what Jaiswal has done for us as an opener. It also gives us the left-right combination at the top," added Dravid. However, that will leave the question on how to find a place f
