Jacob Bethell: Can England’s New Star Secure Ashes Spot? | Ashes 2025 Betting & News

Jacob Bethell: Ashes Series (Ashes Series) ke liye aik naya umeed-war

England ka yeh naujawan sitara, Jacob Bethell, naye saal ke aghaz par ek nayi chamak aur naye iradon ke sath New Zealand pahunch chuka hai. Unka naya ‘blond’ hairstyle sirf ek fashion statement nahi, balki unke pur-azm honay ki nishani hai. Kya Bethell 2005 mein Kevin Pietersen ki tarah history dohra payenge aur Ashes mein apni jagah pakki karenge?

Potential vs Performance: Kya Bethell No. 3 ke liye tayyar hain?

Ollie Pope ke khilaf competition sakht hai. Jahan Pope ke paas 61 Test matches ka tajurba hai, wahin Bethell apni ‘potential’ (salahiyat) par kharay hain. Unhone abhi tak koi First-Class century nahi banayi, lekin England management unke khel mein chupi hui ‘upside’ se mutasir hai. Unka white-ball cricket mein upar ke order par khelna, khas tor par No. 3 aur No. 4 par, unhein apni kabliyat sabit karne ka behtareen mauqa deta hai.

Bethell ka apna mauqif

Toyota PCA Awards ke doran Bethell ne kaha, ‘Main sirf England ke liye matches jeetne ki koshish karunga. Agar is se mujhe Ashes ke 11 khilariyon mein jagah milti hai, to yeh mere liye khush-qismati hogi.’ Unka yehi jazba unhein selection race mein sabse aagay khara karta hai.

Australian conditions ka challenge

Australia mein Test cricket khelna koi mamooli baat nahi. Bethell pehle bhi Australia mein Under-19 team ki qayadat kar chuke hain aur Big Bash League mein Melbourne Renegades ke sath khel chuke hain. Unka kehna hai:

• Adaptability: Woh Australian pitches ki ‘bounce’ (uchhal) ko samajhte hain.
• Mental Toughness: Barbados mein waqt guzarne ke baad, woh apne purane season ki nakami ko peeche chor kar naye jazbe se khelne ke liye tayyar hain.

Conclusion: Kya Perth mein hoga badlao?

21 November ko Perth mein shuru hone wale Test match mein kya hum Jacob Bethell ko No. 3 par batting karte dekhenge? New Zealand ke khilaf ye teen T20Is aur teen ODIs ka series hi faisla karegi. Agar Bethell yahan pressure handle kar sake, to Ashes ka maqam unka muntazir hai. Cricket fans ke liye yeh series ek real test hogi!
