00:39Mr. Venkatesh, IPL is a national sport.
00:42It is true that there is a lot of new talent coming in.
00:46But the T20 has a big impact on Indian cricket.
00:50What is the future like in the other formats?
00:52Yes, exactly.
00:56IPL is a commercial based sport.
01:00BCCI is also focusing on IPL.
01:06Players are coming from there.
01:10For example, RS Veen.
01:12He came in the test match.
01:14His base is IPL.
01:16He was the highest wicket taker.
01:19IPL is benefitting us.
01:21The search for talent is 100%.
01:23Let's take Nitish Kumar Reddy.
01:27He came in the test match on the IPL base.
01:30It is not a joke to hit 100 in Melbourne cricket.
01:33Let's take Panth.
01:36Let's take Abhishek Sharma.
01:38Let's take Padikkal.
01:39All of them are coming from IPL.
01:41Talent will come.
01:42After they come,
01:43not in the same format,
01:45the test match is important.
01:48Test match is the base for cricket.
01:50We have to increase the importance of the test match.
01:54In the national matches,
01:56when Ranji Trophy was vacant,
01:58when there were no matches,
02:00in 2012, Kohli played Ranji Trophy.
02:04Rohit Sharma also played for 9 years.
02:08We have to play for the test match.
02:11But the format is different.
02:13It is easy to play the test match.
02:16Because of IPL,
02:18there is a lot of talent.
02:20A lot of talent is coming out.
02:22Because of that, India is in a position.
02:24India won the T20 World Cup,
02:26won the World Test Championship.
02:29We are in a position in 1 or 2.
02:33The duty is based on IPL.
02:35Not based on IPL.
02:37How do you see the future in other formats?
02:39Will we be able to accommodate the right players?
02:44We can do it.
02:46Like I said,
02:48T20, 1 day, test,
02:503 formats and 1 cricket.
02:52All the state associations
02:54are playing in 3 formats.
02:56They are producing everyone.
02:58For example, Nitish Kumar Reddy.
03:00Andhra Cricket Association is working hard.
03:03Academies, infrastructure,
03:05all the state associations are doing it.
03:07All the state associations are producing everyone.
03:10This is the base.
03:12Take T20, 1 day, test format.
03:15They won't go anywhere.
03:17They won't go anywhere.
03:19Test cricket is the base.
03:21If you select a beautiful cricketer,
03:23it's because of test cricket.
03:25Even if you hit 100 in T20,
03:27you won't be a good cricketer.
03:29Only test cricket is the base.
03:3150 overs format is also a long format.
03:34All are equal formats.
03:36Karthik sir,
03:38we can see another note here.
03:40A lot of new batters are coming.
03:42We can see a lot of new all-rounders.
03:46How do you want to fill this gap?
03:50All-rounders mean
03:52we have 100% talent.
03:55We have people like Nitish Rawatam.
04:00He identified and brought him
04:02to the international circuit.
04:04We have people like that.
04:06Last time, Shardul Thakur was there.
04:09He played a key role.
04:11There are definitely people like that.
04:13But how does our board identify them
04:17and nurture them?
04:19How do we take them to the next level?
04:21What kind of output do we get from them?
04:24I think that is what they have to work on.
04:26What I think is,
04:29just like how we are discussing
04:31batters and bowlers,
04:33we should design a separate
04:35program for all-rounders.
04:37If we can put a focus on them,
04:42definitely a lot of people will come out.
04:44As far as I know,
04:46there are a lot of kids in India
04:48who do both batting and bowling.
04:50There are a lot of them.
04:52We have Akshar Patel.
04:54If you look at the international circuit,
04:56Ashwin has retired,
04:58but Ashwin can bat and bowl.
