India vs Sri Lanka: Suranga Lakmal, a Sri Lankan fast bowler, has retired from international cricket. Following India’s tour of Sri Lanka, Lakmal will retire. Suranga Lakmal has decided to retire from international cricket after the upcoming tour to India, according to Sri Lanka Cricket. Lakmal, however, decided to play in the county league soon after his retirement announcement. Derbyshire has signed him for two years.

He will work with ex-Sri Lankan coach Mickey Arthur. Derbyshire Director of Cricket Arthur called Lakmal one of Sri Lanka’s all-time greats at the cricket ball. During this month’s cricket season, Sri Lanka will play two Test matches and three T20 international matches in India. On February 25, these teams will face off.

He made his international debut against India

168 wickets have been taken by Lakmal over 119 innings in 68 Tests so far for Sri Lanka. During the longest format of the game, he took 7 wickets 4 times and 5 wickets 4 times.

The all-rounder took 109 wickets at 32.4 in 86 ODIs, while he took 8 wickets in 11 T20 matches. A marked feature of Lakmal’s international career was his ODI debut against India in Nagpur in 2009. A year after his debut, he will also make his last appearance on Indian soil against the West Indies.

Ravi Shastri’s name missing from commentary panel for series, will have to wait for his return

Former Team India head coach Ravi Shastri will have to wait until IPL 2022 to make his commentary debut. For the West Indies home series against the ODIs and T20Is next month, Shastri was not named to the commentary panel.

BCCI will field seven commentators in February to cover three One Day Internationals and as many Twenty20 Internationals against West Indies. Shastri is not present. In addition to Gavaskar, Agarkar, Bhogle, Murali, Dasgupta, and Sivaramakrishnan, the panel includes Ganesh Gupta and Ajit Agarkar. The list includes former West Indies fast bowler Ian Bishop as well. Shastri will not comment on the series with Sri Lanka.

Ravi Shastri has decided to refrain from commentating until at least IPL 2022, says a source close to him. During the past two months, he has been working on different projects. Then he will consider commentary. During his almost 7-year tenure as Team India’s coach, Shastri coached the team twice. It’s a big name in commentary. After the World T20, he ended his role as coach. There has been speculation since then that he would immediately grab the microphone and begin commentating. However, they didn’t.

Shastri is associated with the Legends League Cricket

Shastri is currently serving as the commissioner of Legends League Cricket in Muscat. It’s been a while since he started commenting. Moreover, he made comments about the final of the T20 World Cup in South Africa in 2007. Additionally, he handled the microphone at the 2011 ODI World Cup final. But after becoming the full-time coach of Team India in 2017, he had to give up commentary. However, his time as coach is now over. Since this is the case, fans are hoping for an early return to the commentary box.

The India-West Indies series begins on February 6

India and West Indies will play three ODIs and as many T20Is starting on 6 February. T20 matches will be played in Kolkata, while one-day internationals will be played in Ahmedabad.

In Siliguri, the subdivisional sports governing body, the Mahakuma Krira Parishad, claims that Richa was well deserved for his selection. “Since she began playing cricket two years ago, she has consistently performed well in all forms. “It is indeed a matter of pride for Siliguri that she has been selected for the world cup team,” he said.

In recent months, Sourav Ganguly has made headlines a lot. Indian cricket was rocked by Ganguly’s remarks on Virat Kohli’s captaincy before India’s tour of South Africa. The India ODI team has been reorganized under Rohit Sharma following Virat Kohli’s removal as captain following the T20 World Cup. Sourav Ganguly later revealed he requested Kohli not to resign as T20 captain. But Virat Kohli rebutted Ganguly’s claim in a press conference.

Virat Kohli said he had not been asked to remain as captain. His removal as captain was announced one and a half hours before the selection of the team for the South Africa tour. As part of the Ganguly-Kohli controversy, many former players blamed the attitude of the BCCI president.

Sourav Ganguly told Virat he was forbidden to leave the T20 captaincy, but he still refused. In order to avoid having two captains in limited-overs cricket, Rohit was named both captain and vice-captain for the T20s and ODIs.

There is Wankhede and Mumbai Special, where I scored a century the last time I played test here. My team benefited from the 5 wicket hall, but I missed it. My experience with Ashwin was rewarding. He thinks differently, choosing good things from such a great mind, and I use it in the game. I learned a great deal from the experience.
