Darren Gough thinks that the India ODI series against the West Indies, which began yesterday night, offers a chance for several young people to shine, including 27-year-old batsman Shreyas Iyer, who is currently facing criticism.
Except for captain Shikhar Dhawan and Bhuvneshwar Kumar, most of the key players and seniors are rested, giving the current Indian team a youthful and fresh appearance. In the upcoming three ODIs, the new and emerging talents would be anxious to make an impact in the absence of the top stars.
The Indian youthful players, including Deepak Hooda, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Arshdeep Singh, and Avesh Khan, hope to make an impression on head coach Rahul Dravid. Shreyas Iyer, in particular, has the chance to demonstrate that he deserves to be at the top owing to the series.
Iyer has struggled in his most recent appearances for India, scoring 36, 40, 14, 4, 0*, 15, 19, and 28 in his most recent innings. The 27-year-old would like to make a huge score, especially as he has struggled recently.
“I am a huge Shreyas Iyer admirer. I have already said that. I consider him to be a fantastic talent. The question of whether he can surpass KL Rahul, though, has been another “stated Darren Gough on Cricket.com.
‘Rahul is a fantastic player for India’: Darren Gough
Rahul, who was expected to return to action for India vs. West Indies T20Is after suffering a groin injury in June, had nothing but praise from Gough. Rahul, a prominent Indian batsman, tested positive for Covid-19 and may not make the tour, prolonging his wait for a comeback. Rahul may lead India in an ODI series against Zimbabwe in August before the Asia Cup, according to rumors.
“Rahul the King Legend I am aware that he underwent surgery. He is a tremendous player, a huge batsman, and has a very high one-day cricket average. If you want to pursue that, he is a high performer, “stated Darren Gough on Cricket.com
On July 24 at Trinidad’s Port of Spain, Team India will now play the West Indies in the second one-day international of the series.
