Mohammad Yusuf advised Babar Azam to work on his batting technique in Australia or South Africa

The popularity of the English star batsman Harry Brook in international cricket has been very high recently. In recent months, Harry Brook has demonstrated impressive T20 play, consistently scoring many runs.

English media praises Brook's performance, calling him the best T20 batsman in the world. However, when it comes to comparing him with Abhishek Sharma, a former player for the Indian team Chennai Super Kings (CSK), S. Badri Nat believes that Abhishek Sharma significantly surpasses him and is the best batsman in the world.

Discussing this on his YouTube channel, S. Badri Nat highly praised Abhishek Sharma. He noted that despite his modest appearance, Abhishek is capable of intimidating bowlers during the powerplay. Badri Nat categorically stated that although English-speaking media might claim Harry Brook is the best right now, there is no such chance; in T20, only Abhishek Sharma is the best, and his statistics confirm this.

It is worth noting that recently, in the third T20 match against New Zealand, Abhishek scored a devastating blow against a target of 199 runs by hitting a sensational century. After this impressive game, Abhishek once again took the first place in the ICC T20 batsman rankings. Furthermore, he surpassed Virat Kohli and became the Indian batsman to score the most centuries in the T20I format.

In addition to praising Abhishek, Badri Nat raised questions regarding the composition of the Indian team. He expressed surprise that Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who joined the team after the tour of Ireland following the IPL, is playing alongside Abhishek. Badri Nat questioned who should actually be fielded at the start for the Indian team—Vaibhav or Sanju Samson. He also noted that fielding Sanju at the third position is incorrect, and the management needs to abandon its 'musical chair' policy and stick to one plan.

A tense verbal altercation occurred on the cricket field again between players. A dispute arose between Pakistani fast bowler Haris Rauf and English all-rounder Will Jacks. During the incident, Rauf also expressed disagreement with the umpire's decision.

The incident unfolded during an exciting One Day International Three Series match between Pakistan and England, which took place on October 25th in Lahore. During the game, Englishman Sam Curran bowled a bouncer at Pakistani batsman Shadab Khan. Haris Rauf appealed for a wide, but the umpire rejected his appeal.

At this moment, Will Jacks said something that displeased Haris Rauf. Following this, Rauf began shouting at the English bowler Jacks and started arguing with the umpire. The umpires had to intervene to prevent the conflict from escalating on the field.

Video of this situation is quickly spreading across social media. However, the exact details of what Will Jacks said that angered Haris Rauf remain unknown. Despite the drama, Pakistan won this intense confrontation by one wicket.

The Pakistani team, which needed to chase a target of 242 runs, found itself in a very vulnerable position. However, the partnership between Haris Rauf and Shadab Khan, which yielded 89* runs after the score was 154/9, allowed Pakistan to almost win the match. Shadab Khan scored 113* not out, and Haris Rauf remained on the field until the end, scoring 7 runs. For his outstanding performance, Shadab Khan received the 'Player of the Match' award.

Following the Australian team's defeat to South Africa in the second Test match of the series, losing by one innings and 31 runs, questions have arisen regarding the team's composition. Captain Pat Cummins admitted that the team management now needs to conduct a new analysis of the players' squad.

The availability of Cameron Green and Josh Inglis may also influence player selection ahead of the decisive Test starting in Cape Town on October 27. In the second match, where the Australian team played a follow-on, they managed to score only 295 runs in the second innings. Marnus Labuschagne was dropped after scoring 39 runs, while Nick Maddinson and Beau Webster were unable to play a major innings; Maddinson scored zero in the first match and eight in the second, and Webster scored 13 and 8 runs respectively.

The Australian team management must decide whether to give another chance to players who are consistently performing poorly or replace them with new players. Cummins noted: 'There is always the task of deciding whether to give a player another match or if now is the right time for changes. This will be discussed in the coming days.'

He also stated that Cameron Green and Josh Inglis might be available for the third Test. According to Pat Cummins, both players will be considered when forming the squad.

Previously, the 'Kangaroo' team had won the first Test by a score of 214 runs. In that match, Matt Renshaw achieved his first Test century in ten years, but Pat Cummins admitted that the team's batting performance did not meet expectations at that time. He emphasized: 'Renshaw performed brilliantly in Durban, but I believe that especially in batting, we were not at our best. Considering the potential of our batsmen and their own standards, we are scoring less than expected.'

Pat Cummins added that the Australian team has several days to prepare and analyze its mistakes before the Cape Town Test. The Australian side is now aiming to show better batting performance in the decisive confrontation to win the series.
