Forget Amir, it’s Bumrah time
"Just leave him (Amir)... He's just come (after the ban) and we should go gaga about him. let him perform for one more year and we will see.... let him achieve some bit. He has talent but aisa kuch nahin ki aake woh sabko uda hi deta hai (it's not that he rips apart all line-ups). He's just a normal bowler who was good on that day. Instead of talking about Amir you should talk about Bumrah. He’s a rare talent.... The way he has started he will do something special. He's an exception. He comes with a surprise, even the captain does not know. He's got a good yorker, bouncer — all what a modern day bowler needs.

I want to be Kallis: Pandya
Yuvraj Singh recently compared India's newest cricketing sensation Hardik Pandya to West Indians for his on-field flair but the Baroda youngster dreams of emulating legendary South African Jacques Kallis with his all-round abilities. "Big things start with the dream only. This was the dream. Yes, it's fulfilling. I want to be like Jacques Kallis. What he has done for Proteas in batting and bowling. I want to do the same thing for India." Pandya said.
According to skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Pandya has brought stability with his skills but he reveals that there is no particular brief given to him.
"The best part is I'm not told anything. I've not given been any instruction. That's something good for me. I can now read situations as I have got used to international pressure," the 23-year-old added.
