Mohammad Hafeez, a former batter for Pakistan, has criticized the bowlers’ choice, made when he was team director, to put workload control first. Hafeez’s job was terminated, as announced by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), a mere three months following his hiring. He voiced contempt for the idea of workload management, which has gained traction in cricket as a result of the hard international schedule and involvement in numerous T20 leagues across the globe. He claimed that these kinds of factors were uncommon when he was a player.
The players in issue are thought to have been bowlers like Shaheen Afridi and Haris Rauf, even though he did not mention any names. Afridi was rested for the last Test match of the series, while Rauf pulled out of the most recent Australia Tests due to workload concerns. The disheartening 0-3 rout that concluded Pakistan’s series against Australia had many questioning the team’s tactics and player management.

Subject: Former South Africa all-rounder Mike Procter’s passing is regretted by the ICC.
Procter was one of the original full-time members of the Emirates ICC Elite Panel of Match Referees and a brilliant player, according to a statement from ICC Chief Executive Geoff Allardice.
Mike Procter’s wife and two daughters survive him; he passed away in a Durban hospital on February 17.
The news of Mike Procter’s passing is depressing. In his day, he was one of the most feared opponents and one of the most admired cricket players. He was an excellent offensive hitter and quick bowler who outperformed any opposition. Graeme Pollock and Barry Richards were among the other notable players on Mike’s excellent South African team. In a number of significant series, he also served as an ICC Match Referee. Allardice stated, “His passing will leave the cricket world a poorer place.

Subject: IND vs. ENG 2024: Shubman Gill lost his cool after a miscommunication with Kuldeep Yadav resulted in a 91-run out.
Shubman Gill, who began the third Test between India and England in Rajkot on Day 4 at 65 off 120 balls, teamed up with nightwatcher Kuldeep Yadav to steady the batting after two early wickets, helping the team reach 196. But in the 64th over, Kuldeep’s bold move backfired when he misplayed a shot to mid-on, forcing Gill to take a chance on a single.
Ben Stokes collected the ball quickly and sent it to Tom Hartley with accuracy. After realizing his error, Gill desperately dove, but he was caught at 91 runs. He was obviously frustrated that his chance to make a century had eluded him. Gill’s excellent performance so far was overshadowed by the needless run-out, which represented a wasted opportunity.

Subject: Due to injuries, Tim Seifert and Matt Henry will not play in the Australia T20Is.
With Matt Henry and Tim Seifert out of the three-match T20I series against Australia, New Zealand’s already injury-ravaged team has suffered even more blows. Henry has to take a little break and strengthen his hips in order to prepare for the upcoming Test series against Australia. Henry experienced hip soreness following the South Africa series.
In the meantime, Tim Seifert is sidelined due to his torn abductor during training with the Northern Districts.
Ben Sears of Wellington, a pace bowler, and Will Young of Central Districts, a batsman, have been recruited to fill the vacancy. Sears and Young are competent fill-ins, according to Black Caps coach Gary Stead, who expressed optimism about Henry and Seifert’s quick recuperation. In order to assure the team’s depth and resiliency ahead of difficult games, Stead emphasized his faith in the replacements.

Subject: IND vs. ENG 2024: Yashasvi Jaiswal destroys James Anderson in Rajkot with three straight sixes.
Since making his debut in the Caribbean last year, Yashasvi Jaiswal has been playing Test cricket with great consistency. In the 85th over of India’s second innings in the third Test match between India and England in Rajkot on Sunday, February 18, the gifted young player smacked the illustrious James Anderson for three straight sixes.
After scoring his third century in a Test match on Day 3, Yashasvi Jaiswal had to be sidelined with a back spasm.
When he made the decision to leave the field to take care of his back problems, he was batting 104 in the second inning for India. Despite the fact that he appeared to be in good health, many were worried when he came out to bat during Shubman Gill’s wicket fall in the opening session on Day 4.

Subject: Ravi Shastri takes a cheeky dig at Joe Root for his poor batting display, saying, “More than the runs he scored.”
In Rajkot, the third Test of the current five-match series pitted Team India against England. Both teams have everything to play for in the next few games since the series is tied, and even though both sides are playing well, the exploits of ace England batter Joe Root have gone unnoticed.
Throughout the current series, the 33-year-old has not been at his best, and the Rajkot Test was no exception. Root has only scored 70 runs in five innings, with his highest scoring total for the series being 29 runs.
On the third day of the third Test, Root tried to play a reverse scoop to Jasprit Bumrah but was caught in slips by the fielder, adding insult to injury.
Taking seven wickets in the series so far, Root has proven to be an even more potent weapon for England with the ball than he has been at the bat. Former Indian cricketer Ravi Shastri brought up the same topic during his commentary, making a lighthearted jab at Root.

Subject: “His career might have ended if he had made that shot at the domestic level,” RP Singh said of Joe Root’s poor shot choice.
One of the best batters in contemporary cricket is Joe Root. His accomplishments amply demonstrate his caliber and reliability. He is, however, experiencing a rare period of poor form during the current five-match Test series between England and India.
Joe Root was removed for eighteen in the opening innings of England’s third Test match in Rajkot by Jasprit Bumrah, who has recently shown more aggression than the previous England captain. But many were taken aback by the way the skilled batsman handed away his wicket.
Midway through a probing period, Bumrah bowled a full delivery outside off-stump. Root took the reverse-lap, a move that has yielded significant results for him in the past twelve months. But this time, he was unable to make a good connection, and Yashasvi Jaiswal caught the ball at second slip after it had left the bat.
