Going forward Virat will score runs in this series: Arshdeep Singh

India seamer Arshdeep Singh says it is a "blessing" to share the dressing room with talismanic Virat Kohli and he won't read too much into the batting stalwart's eight-ball-duck in the first ODI that the visitors lost by seven wickets to Australia. Arshdeep feels that being a master of 50-over cricket, Kohli will score runs in the remaining two games of this series. "He has played more than 300 matches for India, so form is just a word for him," Arshdeep said at the post-match media conference. "He knows how to get going. It is always like a blessing to be in the same dressing room with him, and going forward I feel there'll be a lot of runs for him in this series as well." Asked how does Kohli feel about playing just one format, Arshdeep kept his guard up. "....talking about the format he is playing, he has mastered this one. So I don't know how he feels about it. I will ask him about his feelings, and maybe tell you in the next press conference." The left-arm seamer is still ve

Ajit Agarkar defends Rohit and Kohli from constant criticism after games

Senior Indian batting stars Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma will be "assessed" but it would be "silly" to put them on trial in each and every ODI that they play from hereon, chairman of selectors Ajit Agarkar said on Friday. On the eve of their return to international cricket against Australia after a seven-month gap, speculation is rife that the two former skippers will be judged on a series to series basis going into the 2027 ODI World Cup in South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia. "It will be silly to put them on trial for every game. Once they start playing they will be assessed but they are not on trial," Agarkar said at the 'NDTV World Summit'. Reiterating what he said in Ahmedabad after announcing Shubman Gill as new ODI skipper a couple of weeks back, Agarkar once again avoided committing on their selection for an event which is still two years away. "It doesn't mean if they don't get runs in Australia, they would be dropped and similarly if they score three tons in Australia, the
