‘Pandya is a bit like Kohli’: Ex-Australia spinner makes tall claim
Since the Ahmedabad Indian Premier League (IPL) team announced their selection of Hardik Pandya as captain for the upcoming IPL 2022 season, the cricket fraternity has been busy and understands the decision. The latest to join the discussion is former Australian spinner Brad Hogg.
The new team selected generalist Pandya as their first-round pick, followed by Rashid Khan and Shubman Gill. Additionally, they hired former Indian striker Ashsh Nehra as their head coach.
Hogg, speaking about Pandya’s captain in a video on his YouTube channel, quipped that he is very similar to former India captain Virat Kohli and can be a good captain.
“Pandya can be a really good captain because he’s a bit like Kohli. He wants to go there and dominate. His body language says, ‘I’m here to beat you,’” he said.
Talking about Nehra and Pandya’s partnership, Hogg believes that while he’s happy to see the two work together, he’d like to see the former curb a habit of his.
“Hardik Pandya and Ashish Nehra are both exciting figures in Ahmedabad. When they have a team together, they have to understand and also have different personalities. Don’t give 100 pieces of advice to the highest scoring bowler, ‘ Hogg explained.
“Trust the players. When Nehra was an assistant coach at RCB, he was always on the edge of the ropes giving advice and I didn’t like what I saw there. He liked
“I think they will do well. Both are fairly inexperienced in their roles, which could be a problem for Ahmedabad. Pandya under Flower and Rahul under Neh Captaining under Ra’s leadership will be the balance of experience there.”

Mumbai defeats Vidarbha by 169 runs to win the 42nd Ranji Trophy, capping an eight-year reign.
Mumbai overcame Vidarbha by 169 runs in the Wankhede Stadium final on Thursday to end an eight-year drought for a record-tying 42nd Ranji Trophy victory. Vidarbha put up a valiant fight in the second inning to chase a massive 538 runs, but on Day 5, they were eventually bowled out for 368.
Vidarbha put up a valiant battle on Day 5 of the final, with captain Akshay Wadkar and Harsh Dubey leading the team’s struggle against Ajinkya Rahane’s troops. Vidarbha scored 81 runs in the opening session without losing a wicket thanks to the two’s resolute stance at the crease, which frustrated the home team.
Mumbai defeated Vidarbha by a commanding 169 runs in the Ranji Trophy final, putting on an outstanding display.
Following lunch, Wadkar gave Vidarbha’s innings a boost with a magnificent century, showcasing his batting prowess. But when it was time to step it up, Tanush Kotian got his wicket by lbw-ing Wadkar.
Following the captain’s exit, Vidarbha’s batting lineup came under increasing pressure. Even Dubey, who showed fortitude by hitting a steely 65 off 128 deliveries, gave in to the pressure of the scoreboard.
Mumbai’s bowlers strengthened their hold on the game as the innings went on. Vidarbha’s bottom order offered little resistance as Mumbai quickly completed the innings in just the next 25 deliveries.
Ajinkya Rahane gave the ball to Dhawal Kulkarni in a crucial moment following the loss of the ninth wicket in his final domestic encounter. With just his third ball of the spell, Kulkarni quickly secured the vital wicket of Umesh Yadav, securing Mumbai’s 42nd championship.
Mumbai won their first Ranji Trophy since 2016. The domestic powerhouses increased their lead over other teams in the standings for the most trophies won in the first-class competition. With Karnataka coming in a distant second, no other team has won the Ranji Trophy more times than this one.
