“Bazball is great, but…” Sourav Ganguly says he’s certain India can win the series

NEW DELHI: India’s dominance and self-assurance in the cricket game were evident as they easily defeated England in the third Test of the series, paving the way for an exciting encounter in Ranchi.
Sourav Ganguly, a former captain of India, praised the team’s aggressiveness and depth while underlining the outstanding efforts of young players in the absence of important stars.

Ganguly underlined the team’s togetherness and confidence, saying, “India were so confident that they allowed Ravichandran Ashwin to go back home in the middle of a Test.”
India shown their tenacity in the face of the absence of veterans like Virat Kohli and KL Rahul, with debutants Sarfaraz Khan and Dhurv Jurel receiving praise for their outstanding performances.

Ganguly was full of praise for Sarfaraz’s spectacular batting performance and Jurel’s reliable wicket-keeping, highlighting their vital contributions to India’s triumph.
“Jurel’s contribution behind the stumps helped Ravindra Jadeja finish the run-out dismissal of Tom Hartley,” Ganguly said.
Along with praising Yashasvi Jaiswal for his outstanding double century, the cricket veteran said, “Jaiswal is not only a good player, he’s capable of playing in all formats of the game.” Jaiswal’s potential as an Indian future star was emphasized by Ganguly.

“Bazball is nice, but…”
England was devastated by the loss in Rajkot, and their aggressive Bazball strategy came under fire when they suffered their worst run-loss since 1934.
“Indian circumstances are tough for England to succeed in, even if bazball is a fantastic game. If India loses the series, I’ll be shocked. Please keep in mind that Virat [Kohli] and KL [Rahul] are not playing for India. “England is having trouble despite having a young team with a lot of new players,” Ganguly said, expressing optimism that India will win the series.

Veteran spinner Ashwin’s remarkable 500 Test wicket haul contributed to India’s victory in Rajkot. But Ashwin’s unannounced withdrawal from the Test to care for his sick mother highlighted the team’s philosophy of putting home responsibilities ahead of on-field accomplishments.
