'Sooryavanshi Will Have To Wait': Nayar Backs Samson, Explains Indias Selection Dilemma
New Delhi: Former India assistant coach Abhishek Nayar believes Sanju Samsons ability to produce decisive innings after a lean run could keep young batter Vaibhav Sooryavanshi waiting for his opportunity in the upcoming T20I series against New Zealand. Nayar also explained why Indias team combination, particularly the need for a left-right batting pair, could influence the selection call, while backing Finn Allen to potentially challenge Abhishek Sharmas record for the fastest T20I century by an Indian. Samsons inconsistent returns have often triggered debate over his place in Indias T20I setup, with Sooryavanshi emerging as a possible alternative. However, Nayar believes the wicketkeeper-batters capacity to turn the conversation around with one substantial innings makes his selection a more complicated decision. Sanju plays with everyones emotions because he wont score runs for two matches, and everyone starts raising questions, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi should play, Sanju Samson isnt capitalising on his chances, how long will we wait? And at that very moment, he will score an 80 in no time. Sanju is that kind of player who will repeatedly give you opportunities to raise questions about him and then will play a big knock, making the most of his chances. So, there will be moments when there will be talks about his place, but Vaibhav Sooryavanshi will have to wait, Nayar told JioStar. Nayar said the decision would extend beyond individual performances, with team balance and the precedent set by the management also important considerations. He pointed to the potential consequences of frequent changes in selection, arguing that India must protect its team culture while ensuring younger players receive opportunities at the right time. Often, for a teams culture, if you are a coach or a captain, it is crucial to make the right decisions. If you make haphazard decisions, the impact on Vaibhav Sooryavanshis career is one thing, but the impact on team culture will be far greater. So, according to me, the decision will be, Vaibhav, wait for your time; you will also get opportunities. Maybe in a series where Sanju isnt there or is rested, he will play. But as long as there is a left-hander at number three and at the top, you will always think that a right-hander in between is necessary. So, its not so much about Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and Sanju Samson; its about having that left-right combination so that a bowler like Bracewell doesnt come and bowl out his overs in the powerplay, Nayar added. Meanwhile, Nayar identified New Zealand opener Finn Allen as a potential threat in the upcoming series, citing the conditions that favour his aggressive style of batting. Allens power-hitting could prove particularly effective on smaller grounds, where clearing the boundary can be easier. Maybe in a series where Sanju isnt there or is rested, he will play. But as long as there is a left-hander at number three and at the top, you will always think that a right-hander in between is necessary. So, its not so much about Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and Sanju Samson; its about having that left-right combination so that a bowler like Bracewell doesnt come and bowl out his overs in the powerplay, Nayar added.

Congress leaders confident of massive turnout at INDIA bloc's November 1 rally
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 18 (IANS) The INDIA bloc's proposed protest march on November 1, against the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls and demands for removal of Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Gyanesh Kumar, will see a massive turnout of people, a section of Congress leaders said on Sunday. Congress leader Hussain Dalwai said public anger has grown against the government because of its 'arrogance and stubborness' despite the Opposition flagging serious lapses in the SIR exercise and demands for necessary regulations including scrapping of the exercise. Right now, there is so much anger in people's minds because this government does not listen to anything at all. Despite repeatedly bringing it up and protesting in various ways, including protests led by the INDI Alliance, where a massive crowd gathered in Delhi on the 12th to raise their voice, the government is still not taking any action regarding the SIR, nor are they removing him (Chief Election Commissioner, Gyanesh Kumar), he said. Dalwai said the INDIA bloc would organise a major rally on November 1, bringing together political representatives and organisations from different parts of the country. It is essential to remove Gyanesh Kumar, but they refuse to do so. Because of this, a major gathering will be held on November 1st on behalf of the INDI Alliance, where people from all states across India, as well as various organisations, will unite and participate in large numbers, he added. Congress leader Atul Londhe Patil claimed that people would turn up in large numbers without needing an appeal from political leaders, citing concerns over alleged electoral irregularities and the state of democracy. There is no need to make an appeal to gather people. Given the way votes have been stolen, democracy has been stolen, democracy is in danger, and the Constitution is in danger, people are naturally ready to come there on their own, he said. Predicting a massive turnout, Londhe Patil said the gathering could exceed 10 lakh people. You speak of 500,000 people, but there won't even be space to stand. Not just 500,000, but over 10-15 lakhs of people from across the entire country are going to gather there on a massive scale; this is the information we have, he added. The remarks came after the Delhi Police on Saturday granted permission to the Congress to hold a mega rally at Ramlila Maidan on November 1 to protest against alleged irregularities in the Election Commission of India's SIR of voter rolls. The Congress, led by Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi and other Opposition leaders, has been mobilising support against the revision exercise and demanding the resignation of CEC Gyanesh Kumar.

His speech followed chants of Inquilab Zindabad (Long live the revolution) and Vande Mataram (I bow to thee, Mother), and a reading of the preamble to Indias Constitution.
