‘How did Harshit Rana get selected directly’: Sadagoppan Ramesh

2 min readJul 10, 2026 05:01 PM IST Former Indian cricketer Sadagoppan Ramesh slammed the Indian team for selecting Harshit Rana. He asked how the side picked up Rana without him proving his fitness? and added, “There are different yardsticks for different players.” “How did Harshit Rana get selected directly to the Indian team without proving his fitness anywhere after surgery? If you haven’t fully recovered from a knee surgery, then it leads to a hamstring or quad injury next, as has happened with him. It’s clear he didn’t return to the Indian team at 100% fitness. It’s just an evidence on how there are different yardsticks for different players. India will produce results again only if they correct this issue,” Ramesh said on his YouTube channel. “The fact they rested him for the Zimbabwe tour and the squad was announced before this injury made it clear that they rested him knowing that he won’t be able to play back-to-back series. This is not about Harshit Rana’s ability,” he said. Varun Chakarvarthy’s injury meant that …

Harshit Rana was sent ahead of Shivam Dube, really?: Dinesh Karthik

Harshit Rana was sent ahead of Shivam Dube, really?: Dinesh Karthik

2 min readJul 9, 2026 02:26 PM IST India lost five wickets in the power play against England in the third T20I. Jofra Archer and Josh Tongue picked up five wickets in a fiery spell. However, to everyone’s surprise, after Axar Patel’s wicket, Harshit Rana walked in; he is a bowling all-rounder, not the designated batter, Shivam Dube. Former Indian cricketer Dinesh Karthik slammed the management for promoting Rana. “For a start, it feels like India’s middle order looks rather unsettled for a world champion side. Why is there a collapse happening way too often? Harshit Rana was sent ahead of Shivam Dube, really? You’re telling me in a chase of 200, there is a better chance that Harshit Rana could come and bat in the powerplay and take you over the line ahead of a Shivam Dube? I understand a left-right combination, but will this lack of confidence in Shivam Dube batting against high pace or powerplay make him doubt himself?” Dinesh Karthik said on Cricbuzz. “Take the case of Sanju Samson, three matches …

3 min readJun 20, 2026 12:13 AM IST Upon becoming the world junior champion in men’s 25m rapid fire pistol on Friday, Sameer Gulia’s first thoughts were about his gun’s grip. A couple of years ago, Jaspal Rana had advised the Haryana shooter to get his grip changed from Germany. Last week, Rana breathed his last and the 19-year-old chose to dedicate his maiden world title to the legendary coach. “Jaspal Rana sir was the guiding force for all juniors in the Indian team in recent years and earlier too. Every time I shot with this gun, his motivating words, ‘Aur mehnat kar Sameer beta aur dhyan na bhatkana’ (Work harder and don’t let your focus waver) would ring in my ears,” Gulia tells The Indian Express after triumphing at the ISSF World Junior Championships in Suhl, Germany. An only child, Gulia grew up in Purkhas village near Sonepat, eyeing his mother Anita Devi’s medals at home. Devi, who became the 25m pistol national champion in 2013, quit shooting to concentrate on making her son …
