On TSB, Neeil and Pranav look back at this week's top cricket story, with India announcing its test squad for the tour of West Indies.

The selection has left many confused, including the legend Sunil Gavaskar who said: "Stop playing Ranji Trophy. Say, it's of no use, you just play IPL and think you are good enough for the red-ball game as well."

On the back of Sarfaraz Khan not being picked, Gavaskar questioned the logic behind having the Ranji Trophy if performance in the country's premier domestic tournament is not looked into while picking the Indian red-ball teams instead of taking the players IPL.

Khan amassed 556 runs in six games at an average of 92.66 in the 2022–23 Ranji Trophy.

Further, with Pujara being dropped but Kohli and Rohit Sharma being picked, Gavaskar asked the question: “What is Indian cricket going to learn by picking the same seniors for the two Test matches who have now failed to deliver in two World Test Championship finals?"

Australian cricketing legend Steve Waugh, and India's Chess Grandmaster were among the guests to welcome chess's latest and revolutionary tournament to Dubai.

In conversation with TSB, Steve Waugh discussed how chess is at the core of strategising for a cricket match, relating it to England's shock declaration in the first test of the 2023 Ashes.

Titled as the 'Global Chess League', it is the world’s first chess team franchise, marking new territory for the sport, as the league aims to revolutionize the game and expand its reach globally.

The tournament will feature a new competition concept and scoring system akin to football or cricket.

The league will include world champions (active and former) in all three chess categories – classical, rapid and blitz.

This is the second most important chess event held in Dubai, following the match for the title of World Chess Champion in 2021.
