IND vs ENG: 'Gautam Gambhir, not Shubman Gill, will be in the spotlight' - Ex-England spinner
Mumbai: India's Test cricket team captain Shubman Gill and head coach Gautam Gambhir during the pre-departure press conference ahead of the five-match Test cricket series against England, in Mumbai. (PTI Photo/Shashank Parade)(PTI06_05_2025_000351A) NEW DELHI: Former England spinner Monty Panesar believes that the upcoming five-match Test series in England will be a major test of Gautam Gambhir's credentials as a red-ball coach. According to Panesar, more than the new Test captain Shubman Gill , it is Gambhir who will be in the spotlight when the high-stakes series gets underway. The first Test begins on June 20 at Headingley Stadium in Leeds. Excerpts... India's Test squad appears relatively inexperienced on paper. Do you think this young Shubman Gill-led side has what it takes to script history in England? This Indian team has a few youngsters who've had the opportunity to play county cricket. Because of that, they need to utilise that experience when facing England and really back themselves to believe they can take on England. Hopefully, England will produce pitches that are relatively flat. If that's the case, I think it'll be an even contest. But even if the pitches have grass, I believe India still have the bowling attack to exploit those conditions. The key, though, will lie with both the batters and bowlers. Can they translate their county cricket experience into performances at the Test level? English conditions are known to Test players in unique ways. What challenges do you foresee for this Indian team in the upcoming series? For the Indian batters, the big challenge will come when it's overcast. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Our one of a kind Patented Cold Water Extraction Process Superior Ginseng Undo In those conditions, the air cools down, the ball starts to swing more and seams a bit extra off the surface. There's more zip off the pitch in those moments, and India must avoid losing wickets in clusters. They'll need to hang in there, focus on survival, and once they weather the storm and tire out a couple of bowlers, it will get easier. One bad session could take them out of the game. Which Indian players do you think have the potential to be game-changers in this five-match series? I think Sai Sudharsan is one of those players who could become the breakout star of this tour. He's done well for Surrey and has the temperament to challenge England's bowlers. So for me, Sai Sudharsan could become the next superstar of Indian cricket. Also, I think it's a big tour for Shardul Thakur . Overseas, he gives India an option as a second-change bowler who can take wickets and be economical. He naturally pitches it up, so I see this being an important tour for him as well. Kuldeep Yadav hints at spin-friendly wicket ahead of England Test series How big of a role do you see Kuldeep Yadav playing in the series? Can he feature in all five Tests given the English conditions? I think they'll stick with Ravindra Jadeja , relying on his experience. England's batters may prefer to face the relatively inexperienced Kuldeep Yadav. But if India stack their XI with all-rounders, Kuldeep could slot in as the second spinner and provide that X-factor. So yes, they could go with Jadeja at six, Shardul or Nitish Reddy at seven, and that would open a spot for Kuldeep. With Shubman Gill stepping into the role of Test captain after Rohit Sharma's retirement, all eyes will also be on coach Gautam Gambhir. Do you feel this series might end up being more about Gambhir's impact than Gill's leadership? Gautam Gambhir clearly wants to build a young team that follows his methods. He's a hard taskmaster and disciplinarian. This is a tour where Gambhir can shape these players without the influence or resistance of senior stars. If India win, it'll be largely seen as the beginning of a new era under Gambhir. If Gambhir leads this young Indian side to a series win in England, we'll begin mentioning him alongside the best coaches—like Andy Flower, Ricky Ponting, and Stephen Fleming. Gautam Gambhir sends stern message after Bengaluru tragedy What's your assessment of England's 'Bazball' approach going into this series? Do you think it will work against this Indian side? As for Bazball, I think it could be a dangerous strategy. Indian bowlers have too much experience and would love for England batters to come hard, score at six or seven an over, and get bowled out for 200–220 in 40–50 overs. That would put India in control. So I expect England to be a bit more cautious. If they go all guns blazing from the start, it could backfire. England are backing young spinner Shoaib Bashir in this series. But do you think his inconsistency and tendency to leak runs could end up hurting their chances? Regarding Shoaib Bashir, his natural delivery drifts in because of his high-arm action. His challenge will be to bowl from wider of the crease and target off stump. If he sticks to middle-and-leg lines, Indian batters will play him comfortably. If he bowls outside off and threatens both edges, then he becomes a threat. If he attacks only the inside edge, Indian batters will take him apart. Do you think England's current pace attack lacks the edge and aura that James Anderson and Stuart Broad once brought to the team? I do feel England are missing an X-factor. Gus Atkinson is out injured. Mark Wood isn't available either — he was their go-to match-winner. Jamie Overton hasn't played since 2022. Chris Woakes is returning from injury. Josh Tongue and Brydon Carse are promising bowlers but are inexperienced. KL Rahul will be the most experienced batter in this Indian side, while Karun Nair is making a comeback after eight years. How crucial will their contributions be in shaping India's performance? It's a big tour for Karun Nair. He needs to nail down that No. 3 or No. 4 slot and make it his own. If he has a good tour, he could cement his place for the next five years. He has the talent, temperament, and technique. It's about belief now. I hope he doesn't go into a shell because it's a Test arena. He needs to express himself, enjoy the stage, and show what he's capable of. KL Rahul, on the other hand, will be the anchor. He's the one who steadies the ship when India are in trouble. He can bat long hours and allows others to play their natural aggressive game. He's a bit like Pujara in that sense. What would be your pick for India's top five in the first Test at Headingley? My top five for the first Test would be: Yashasvi Jaiswal, KL Rahul, Shubman Gill, Karun Nair, and Sai Sudharsan. What's your overall prediction for the series? If it's green pitches, England might have a slight advantage. If the surfaces are flat, I think India have a great chance to win. And I suspect the ECB would want the matches to stretch into Day 4 and 5—for the spectacle of the Tendulkar-Anderson Trophy. That could work in India's favour.

Golf Betting Markets Winner - A simple bet on the outright winner of a golf tournament. Simply pick the player you think will win. If your player succeeds, you'll get a payout from the bookie. Advertisement Each way - One of the best aspects of betting on golf is the each way market, much like you'll find on horse racing betting sites. One portion of your bet will be on your selected player to win and another for them to place within the parameters set by your chosen golf betting site at a fraction of the outright odds. Top 5/10/20 finish - This is a popular market given the unpredictable nature of golf. Instead of picking an outright winner, you can select a player to finish in the top 5/10/15/20 places in a tournament. First round leader - Another simple option where you pick the player that will be leading after the first round of action. Other bets are available for the day two and day three leader depending on the bookie. Make the cut - Tournament fields narrow after the first two days of the competition. Bettors can wager on which players will make the grade or not to reach the latter stages of the event.

Head to head - Golf betting sites offer the chance to put top players head to head in tournaments. Markets can either be among players competing in the same group on a round or bespoke options. Golf Betting Site Features In-play betting - Live betting sites give users the chance to bet on events as they happen on the course. Live betting lends itself perfectly for golf betting where there are so many elements at play from shot to shot on a round. Advertisement Cash-out - Cash out betting sites provide users with the chance to remove funds from their bet before it settles. The best golf betting sites offer cash outs on a range of bets and fair values on cash outs. Automated and partial cash outs have enhanced the experience by allowing the bettor to control their prospective payout. Statistics - Golf is a game that relies heavily on statistics, so offering various statistics to customers can be extremely useful for bets on golf.

Advertisement The apps is easy to navigate and you'll have no problem finding the golf section of the site with available markets, odds and offers. Other options such as live streaming are evident on the tournament tab, and we found that it was a seamless to use as was the entire product. BetMGM BetMGM have a slick-looking app, which is essentially an extension of their clean, crisp and easy-to-navigate website and that is a common description on the App Store and Google Play store. It has a 4.4 rating on the App Store that highlights how well the app works on the Apple Platform. There have been noted issues on the Google Play Store, scoring two out of five. But, on the whole BetMGM's reputation and strength of the Apple product makes it stand out from the crowd. Bonuses and Promotions For Golf Betting Welcome bonus - New customers should be rewarded for signing up for betting sites online. Offers should include free bets and deposit matches.

Free bets - Free bets are offered sporadically for regular use of the betting site or around major events such as the Masters or US Open. These promotions will usually come in the form of bet and get offers, where a customer has to wager a certain amount to unlock a free bet. Acca boosts - Acca boosts are common across golf betting sites. The price of your acca will be boosted depending on the number of legs your acca contains. Acca insurance - If one leg of your acca fails this promotion kicks in and offers you a free bet for the value of your stake if you have met the terms and conditions of the offer. Advertisement Loyalty clubs - Loyalty clubs are available to reward existing customers who place regular bets on golf online with the chance to earn free bets and other prizes. Golf Betting Odds Here are the latest golf betting odds for the next major of the season, the PGA Championship, which takes place at the Quail Hollow Golf and Country Club between May 15th-18th 2025.

Work to start on £42 million expansion of Scottish port
Construction work will start next week on a £42.2 million expansion project at Kishorn Port in Wester Ross. Once complete, the expanded facilities, on the north-west coast of the Scottish Highlands, are forecast to attract projects with the potential to support up to 1,500 jobs. Investment of up to £24m in the project by regional development agency Highlands and Islands Enterprise was announced by Kate Forbes, Scotland's Deputy First Minister, last week. Alasdair Ferguson, Kishorn Port Limited director, said: 'With a quarry on-site, Kishorn Port is ideally suited for manufacturing of concrete floating offshore wind sub-structures. This Phase 1a expansion project will enable us to provide full integration, with laydown, marshalling and assembly in the long term. 'The development opens Kishorn to new market opportunities and we are receiving strong expressions of interest to utilise the enlarged dry dock area, along with the additional laydown space, for floating offshore and decommissioning projects. As well as Scotland, our key target markets are the Celtic Sea and the Irish Sea.' Mr Ferguson continued: 'Importantly, this project will provide the catalyst for the support and creation of jobs within Wester Ross and the wider Highlands, benefiting communities across the area. 'This is another very significant milestone in the continuing development of Kishorn Port and we are grateful to Highlands and Islands Enterprise and Scottish Government for their support.' Construction work on this phase will create 84 jobs for up to 18 months. The principal contractor for the project is RJ McLeod, based in Scotland, with offices in Dingwall and a long-established track record in the Highlands. Supporting services are also being delivered by Scottish firms including marine consulting civil engineers, Wallace Stone, environmental consultants, Affric, and project management consultants, Leapmoor. £8.4 million upgrade of ageing substation completed after two years A substation in Kilmarnock has been given an £8.4 million upgrade in a bid to provide more locally generated power to the area.
