    Sarfaraz Khan Returns, IPL Or India & VVS Laxman's Next Move | Cricket Unfiltered | EP 9

    India are heading into the first Test against Sri Lanka in Galle with plenty of questions surrounding the team — from selection and injuries to the future structure of Indian cricket. On this episode of Cricket Unfiltered, Nikhil Naz and Rajdeep Sardesai discuss Sarfaraz Khan's return to the Test squad and debate whether he should walk straight into India's XI or whether Dhruv Jurel deserves to retain his place. With Sai Sudharsan unavailable and Devdutt Padikkal making a strong case, the selection puzzle has become even more intriguing ahead of the Sri Lanka series beginning on August 15. The conversation then turns to India's growing injury concerns. Why has the BCCI struggled to find a top sports medicine expert for the Centre of Excellence? Are players being rushed back before they are fully fit? And why does India continue to see key players pick up injuries despite the resources available to the world's richest cricket board? Rajdeep and Nikhil also discuss the growing buzz around VVS Laxman's future and reports that he could be handed a major new assignment in September. Could Laxman become chairman of selectors or take charge of India's Test team? And could Indian cricket eventually move towards separate red-ball and white-ball coaches? Finally, they tackle one of the biggest questions in Indian cricket: is the IPL being prioritised over international cricket? The duo debate player workloads, franchise pressure, the BCCI's relationship with the IPL and whether the entire system needs to become more professional. Tune In!

    Rohit Sharma's 2027 World Cup Dream: Reality Or Wishful Thinking? | Cricket Unfiltered | EP 8

    Will Rohit Sharma still be wearing India's blue jersey at the 2027 ODI World Cup, or is Indian cricket preparing for life after its T20 World Cup-winning captain? That's the big question on this episode of Cricket Unfiltered, where Nikhil Naz and Rajdeep Sardesai take a deep dive into one of the biggest debates in Indian cricket. The hosts examine the reports surrounding Rohit Sharma's ODI future, discuss whether the selectors are already planning a transition, and analyse if his brilliant century at Lord's has changed the conversation. Is Rohit still among India's most valuable ODI players, or should the team start investing in younger talent with the next World Cup just over a year away? The discussion also explores the role of the selectors, Gautam Gambhir's vision for the ODI side, the balance between experience and youth, and whether India's management has communicated a clear roadmap to its senior stars. With the 2027 World Cup approaching, every ODI innings from Rohit Sharma could shape one of the biggest selection decisions in recent Indian cricket. Tune In!
