That makes a lot of sense. Thanks for clarifying that. I believe Ishan Kishan was one of them who was neglecting domestic stuff for the IPL.

Chahar and Bishnoi also pulled the same stunt.

Updates

BCCI is not holding back anymore and walking the talk by making an example of players like Ishan Kishan or to some extent Shreyas Iyer. For now no annual contract for Either of them

There were signs of many young players taking everything casual in domestic cricket because of their IPL contracts. This Ishan Kishan's drama Opened the Pandora Box, now players will think twice about skipping Ranji etc.

Another update...

BCCI is on the roll and trying to make test cricket more lucrative for Indian players. These new incentives are for the national team and from now on, test specialists (or test regulars) players will earn more.

I am sure, they are working on something for Ranji Players as well. Very pleasing to see BCCI making an effort for test cricket in the IPL era and much needed initiative.

Australian batting is consistently falling down which is surely concern for them now after third day of second test match we have Australia out of the game because they still needed 202 runs and their all top order back to pavilion thanks to Matt Henry who took 9 wickets in this match and still can bring more damage to them in second inning we have good batting from the New Zealand four batsmen able to score 50+ and Scott Kuggeleijn able to score 44 runs which helps them for having 372 runs and lead of 279 runs which is good enough on this pitch and then bowlers also done good job 4 early wickets on just 34 runs make them in pool position hopefully they will be won and square the series which could be big success for them.

I think it is a problem that Australia batters didn't do well in the second test match against New Zealand. They need to score 202 runs but many of their best players are already out. And you can see Matt Henry did really well by getting 9 wickets which is making things hard for Australia. It may get even worse for them in the next innings.
If we talk about New Zealand so New Zealand did well in batting. Four players scored more than 50 runs and Scott got 44 runs. This helped them get a big lead of 279 runs. By the way Mitchell and Travis are on the pitch so they can change the position of the match at any time.

The New Zealand team has performed well in the second innings, and the Australian team has a lead of 253 runs so far. And two wickets have already fallen, so if the Australian team can't save the wickets, they are more likely to lose in the second innings. Labuschagne in the first innings he performed well in the first innings and collected 90 runs from his bat. He was dismissed for just six runs in the opening moments of the match, so the Australian team is now under a lot of pressure in terms of reliable batting. Green and Khawaja will be the current batsmen if these two batsmen can build a partnership for a long time then there is definitely a possibility of victory in the end.

New Zealand made a brilliant comeback in the second innings. Glenn Phillips and Kuggeleijn's 53-run partnership was instrumental in giving Australia a target of 279 runs. Australia came under pressure early on when they came to bat to win. Australia scored 34 runs with the loss of four wickets, Ben Sears & Matt Henry destroyed Australia's top order batsmen. For now, the match is in favor of New Zealand. Australia will start batting tomorrow from a score line of 77/4, the fifth wicket partnership between Head & Mitchell Marsh will be crucial. Tomorrow's fifth wicket partnership will depend on which way the match will go. If New Zealand can break this wicket early tomorrow, the match will go in New Zealand's favour.

The New Zealand team in the second test match of Australia vs New Zealand was bowled out for just 162 runs due to batting failure in the second test match. However, the New Zealand batsmen turned around brilliantly and batted brilliantly in the second innings. In the second innings, Australia was put under more pressure by the New Zealand bowlers. The current score of the Australian team is 77 runs for 4 wickets in 24 overs. Mitchell Marsh and Travis Head if these two batsmen can bat well then it will be very dangerous for New Zealand so New Zealand bowlers should get the player out very quickly then the Australian team will be under a lot of pressure.

After a bad batting in the first innings, the New Zealand team made a great comeback in the second innings. The team collected only 162 runs in the first innings. I thought it was not possible for New Zealand to win this match. But in the second innings every player of New Zealand is batting brilliantly. The New Zealand team has already managed to collect 345 runs by losing 6 wickets.

Tom Latham (73)
Kane Williamson (51)
Rachin Ravindra (82)
Daryl Mitchell (58)

Scott Kuggeleijn was also unbeaten on 38 off 36 balls, and Phillips scored 16 off 45 balls.

The New Zealand team has managed to take a big lead of 251 runs. Batting against such a big target on this pitch in the last innings is much more difficult to win. New Zealand will likely deliver 300+ targets today. At the moment England has more chances to win the match.

New Zealand could not give a target of more than 300 runs. New Zealand amassed 372 runs in the second innings and a descent of 279 runs provided a target. Australian bowlers did not bowl well. Pat Cummins took 4 wickets and Nathan Lyn 3 wickets. Hazlewood, who bowled brilliantly in the first innings, managed to pick up just one wicket in the second innings.

I agree with you that it becomes much more difficult for the batsmen to make big collections in the last innings on this pitch. Gradually the pitch became completely bowling friendly. Batting on a target of 279 runs, it is challenging for Australia to win. And Australia has already lost two wickets. Australia lost the two important wickets of Smith and Labuschagne to collect only 22 runs.

The Australian team is batting at a big target. But their top-order batsmen failed to get off to a good start. I would say that New Zealand have the highest chances of winning this match right now.

At the end of the third day, the Australian batsmen managed to collect only 77 runs and lost four wickets. Smith, Usman Khawaja, Green and Labuschagne have already returned to the dressing room. Australia need to collect 202 more runs to win. It is difficult to score 202 runs on the fourth day on this pitch. At the same time, Australia's top-order batsmen have failed to perform well.

After facing a batting defeat in the first innings, New Zealand made a great comeback in the second innings. It was unthinkable that New Zealand would score so many runs in the second innings. However, the New Zealand batsmen batted responsibly and managed to set up a big target. New Zealand can win the match only if the bowlers bowl some controlled bowling.

Anderson is a legend and gun bowler, but he's such a crybaby and grumpy. The worst part is that Anderson's drama involves 2 nicest and quiet guys (Bumrah and now Gill) in the Indian team.

This is the second instance in recent times where he sends someone else to fight his silly war. Bairstow just wanted to contribute something in this series but he failed with the bat so he tried to contribute with his mouth. Tbh there was no fun or any punch line when Gill and Bairstow started exchanging words, it was so boring. At least give something to laugh when you are near the stump mic.

Australia is now looking in danger here because Aus has already lost three crucial wickets. Steven Smith and Khawaja are two who mostly play long innings and both goes to pavilion. Look like Australia will loss this match. NZ is now on full charge, need some more quick wickets and then done the job.

Finally, Australia managed to stitch a partnership and kept the scoreboard moving. Only less than half an hour play remaining and hopefully Head and Mitch Marsh will keep on going.

The match is not over yet, and just 200 runs more to win with 6 wickets one big partnership will take the match away from kiwis and this match is kind of equally poised at the moment.

The second test match between Australia and New Zealand is looking interesting at the moment. Newzealand had a bad start in the first innings but now has made a good comeback with a lead of 278 runs. Australia would now need to get 279 runs to win the second test. They have won the first test match and if they win the second one then it will be another white wash. Earlier they had won the T20 series by 3-0 and this test series might be the next one.

NZ gave pretty good comeback which is unexpected based on the way they batted in their first innings but as far as I can read the pitch condition flattened out that made the scoring opportunity easier now and I was expecting one more session from NZ but their lower middle order and tail gave up early.

The target is quite achievable but 4th innings is always dicey still 20 overs left to play today and AUS already lost their first wicket so if Kiwis manage to get a couple more then they have a chance to win this match.

Hazelwood in the first inning put pressure upon Newzealand batsmens. NZ batsmens couldn't read Aussie pace bowling but in the second inning Latham and Williamson gives a very good start to the team and don't allow Aussie bowlers to build pressure.

India vs England, 5th Test match is finished and India won by 64 runs along with an innings!!! And thus the test series has also ended where India leads 4-1 which indicates how strong India team is, when it comes to cricket. In 1st innings england made only 218 runs without any century. But when india started batting then cover up such runs with only losing 1 wickets. They did 275-2 runs when they lost 2nd wickets. India did total 477 runs with having 2 century by rohit and grill. And i wonder england all out in 2nd innings only within 195 runs. It indicates India bowlers and batsman both are best

India did a great comeback I must say. They lost the first match against England in the starting of the series. Now they just won back to back 4 matches. This proves the dedication of the Indian players to the game. Also we need to praise the Indian skipper Rohit Sharma for his amazing captaincy. The main task was done by the bowlers, especially the spinners in all of the 4 matches. Really team India deserved the win.

New Zealand changed the picture of the Test in the second innings. In the second Test between Australia and New Zealand, New Zealand batted badly in the first innings but turned around in the second innings. In the second innings, they have already taken 339 runs for 6 wickets, and are 245 runs ahead of Australia. Ravindra and Mitchell's 123-run partnership for the fourth wicket boosted the team's run. Daryl Mitchell scored 58 runs, Rachin Ravindra scored 82 runs. If New Zealand takes a lead of 280+ runs, it will be very difficult for Australia to chase down the runs.

Australia played very well in their first innings. Hazlewood and Starc bowled brilliantly. Hazlewood managed to pick up 5 important wickets. But the Australian bowlers are not able to do well in the second innings. If the Australian bowlers are not able to bowl well at the beginning of the next day, then there is a big chance of losing this match. If the target is 200+, it will be difficult for Australia to win.

All it takes just one bad session for the batting side to bundle up, looks good to see some fight back from the Kiwis at finally still anything is possible and tomorrow morning play will be crucial and Kiwis has to play as deep as they can to reduce the deficit to zero cause they are still trail by 40 even after this long fought battle.

Australia vs New Zealand
I thought Australia would take a 150+ lead in the Test match between Australia and New Zealand but Matt Henry bowled brilliantly and was trapped for 256 in Australia's first innings. Matt Henry took 7 first innings wickets against Australia. New Zealand are batting in the second innings, their score is 122/2. New Zealand still lead by 28 runs. Kane Williamson is out for 51 runs. Tom Latham is still unbeaten on 59 and is trying to pair with Rachin Ravindra. I think the third wicket pairing will depend on which way New Zealand match go on. Only nine overs left to bowl. I think tomorrow's first session is going to be very exciting.

Well it's completely bowling supportive track and that's why both side top player failed to score significant runs at crucial situation and we have low target in both innings, but it's true that Australian have dominance over NewZeland throughout the different series and for that reason we have a white wash results for NewZeland against Australia in T20 series and according to current performance now it's look like Aussies will whitewash them again because Now NewZeland just took 40 runs lead before stump but in my mind to be in the series driving seat they has to played brilliantly build partnership and took more than 300 lead and then through bowling tactics put them in trouble. Otherwise Australian are unstoppable under Cummins captaincy.

New Zealand batted very badly in the first innings, the New Zealand team lost all wickets for just 162 runs. But in the second innings, New Zealand's batsmen are batting very well. The pitch is bowling friendly but Tom Latham is batting very responsibly. Williamson also got out with 51 runs. New Zealand managed to collect 134 runs at the end of the second day after losing only 2 wickets.

Australia played very well in their first innings. Hazlewood and Starc bowled brilliantly. Hazlewood managed to pick up 5 important wickets. But the Australian bowlers are not able to do well in the second innings. If the Australian bowlers are not able to bowl well at the beginning of the next day, then there is a big chance of losing this match. If the target is 200+, it will be difficult for Australia to win.

In two days we have 22 wickets with good comeback by Kiwis in this game because currently they are having 40 runs lead and 8 wickets remaining Tom Latham on 65 and Ravindra on 11 if these two are able to stay on crease for long time then surely we can expect good game because Australia batting is also not performing good and anything over 250+ could be not easy to chase in fourth inning.
Matt Henry having career best figure of 7 for 67 and Labuschagne score 90 runs which are main features of the Australian inning now can Kiwis keep this momentum, and we will have good performance from their batting order which is having few exciting batsmen and things can take good change on third day of this test match Hazelwood could be key for the Australians in first session because if he is able to have few quick wickets then surely things will be on level for the Australia.
