I am not going to joke or try and gloss over that fact and he is one of the best players in the world in three formats of the game."
The Australian legend further added that Pant is ranked in top 5 among Test batsmen in the world and that he is Delhi's leader and finisher, and replacing him is going to be pretty much impossible.

"India sometimes make the mistake of forgetting, but this one shouldn't be because in the World Cup, we may face Australia again" - Sunil Gavaskar

Indian legend Sunil Gavaskar has said that Team India shouldn't forget the ODI series loss amid the noise created by the IPL that begins on March 31.
Gavaskar said, "Now the IPL starts. This (series defeat) shouldn't be forgotten. India sometimes make the mistake of forgetting, but this one shouldn't be because in the World Cup, we may face Australia again."
Gavaskar further added that India lost the final ODI due to the pressure created by the Aussies. He said the boundaries had dried up and with the batters also struggling to rotate the strike, they played shots they weren't used to.

Jonny Bairstow to miss IPL 2023 after ECB deny NOC, Liam Livingstone cleared: Reports

While Jonny Bairstow will be absent from this year's IPL, Punjab Kings will still have the services of their big-hitting all-rounder Liam Livingstone.

#PunjabKings #IPL2023 #Bairstow #Livingstone

Bairstow, who underwent surgery on his broken leg and dislocated ankle last October, is yet to return to competitive cricket.

English batter Jonny Bairstow will most likely miss this year's IPL after the England &amp; Wales Cricket Board (ECB) refused to grant him a No Objection Certificate (NOC).
Bairstow, who underwent surgery on his broken leg and dislocated ankle after a freak slip at a golf course last September, is yet to return to competitive cricket. According to reports in the English media, the ECB isn't willing to risk his fitness ahead of the Ashes in June,&nbsp;
While Bairstow's unavailability is a blow for the Punjab Kings, they will be boosted by the return of Liam Livingstone, who has been given the all-clear to play in the T20 extravaganza.
Livingstone, who had a stop-start 2022 season due to multiple injuries last year, has been now declared fit. He was part of the Lancashire's off-season training sessions in Dubai recently.

"He only played three balls in three (games) this series. I don't know how much to look into it. He got three good balls, to be honest" - Rohit Sharma

"He only played three balls in three (games) this series. I don't know how much to look into it. He got three good balls, to be honest" - Rohit Sharma

Indian captain Rohit Sharma has put his weight behind the misfiring Suryakumar Yadav.
Suryakumar Yadav's place in the side has come into question after the batter recorded three consecutive golden ducks against Australia, with <a href="https://www.editorji.com/sports-news/ind-vs-aus-3rd-odi-australia-win-series-decider-by-21-runs-1679503152820">India losing the 3-match series 2-1</a>.
His golden duck in Chennai, where he was removed first ball by Ashton Agar, saw him become the 6th Indian batter to register three consecutive ducks in ODIs after Sachin Tendulkar, Anil Kumble, Zaheer Khan, Ishant Sharma &amp; Jasprit Bumrah.
And captain Rohit admitted his Mumbai Indians teammate is currently going through a bad phase but backed him to come good in the future.
Rohit said, "He only played 3 balls this series. I don't know how much to look into it. He got 3 good balls to be honest. Today, it wasn't that good a ball. He should have gone forward. He knows best. He plays spin so well. We have seen that over the last couple of years. That's why we held him back and give him that role for the last 15-20 overs where he can play his game, but it's really unfortunate he could only play 3 balls. That can happen to anyone. But the potential and ability are always there. He is just going through that phase right now."

IND vs AUS 3rd ODI: Australia expose India's batting, win series decider

Australia beat India by 21 runs in the IND vs AUS 3rd ODI in Chennai to win the 3-match series 2-1 and ended India's 7-ODI series winning streak on home soil.

Here is how Team India's batting was exposed

Despite a long batting line-up, the Men in Blue failed to chase down 270, which ended their 7-ODI series winning streak on home soil

India may be a force to reckon with at home but Australia proved yet again why they are the biggest threat to the Men in Blue in their own den.
The Aussies beat Team India by 21 runs in the 3rd ODI in Chennai to win the 3-match series 2-1.
Opting to bat first, the visitors were off to a good start before Hardik Pandya ran through their top order and reduced the Aussies to 138/5. However, a collective show with the bat helped the Kangaroos finish at 269.
Chasing which, openers Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill gave their side a good start but both fell in quick succession. Virat Kohli then dropped anchor and scored his 65th ODI fifty.
However, the game turned in just 2 deliveries when Ashton Agar first dismissed Virat for 54 and then cleaned up Suryakumar Yadav off the very next ball. An already bad series turned worse for Sky as it was his 3rd consecutive golden duck.
Shuffling the batting order didn't work out for India as the hosts were eventually bowled out for 248.
Despite a long batting line-up, the Men in Blue failed to chase down 270, which ended their 7-ODI series winning streak on home soil.
