In the build-up to the Champions Trophy, Australia will play a couple of…
Going into the Champions Trophy, the decision on the keeper-batter slot rests firmly between Rishabh Pant’s audacious game-changing ability and KL Rahul’s quiet agency. This selection, of enormous consequence for head coach Gautam Gambhir and captain Rohit Sharma, comes at the head of the ODI-series against England that is about to kick off. Tuesday’s first practice session offered some very interesting hints as to select one of them in the final XI. While both have practiced batting a lot, it was Rahul who had a long session involving batting and wicketkeeping, while Pant was really looking into only batting: one-handed…
The Indian selectors announced an updated ODI squad for the three-match series against England starting Thursday in Nagpur. Mystery spinner Varun Chakaravarthy, who has made life hard for the England batters in the T20 series recently, was a late addition, having already begun training with the ODI squad at the Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium.

A member of the support staff for the Indian men’s cricket team was reportedly prevented by cops in Nagpur from entering the team hotel before the first ODI against England, as they mistook him for a fan. In a viral video circulating on social media, Raghavendra, known to one and all as Raghu, a beleaguered throwdown specialist, unsuccessfully tried for a pretty long time to reach his teammates at the other end of the team bus when two policemen, in full uniform, stopped him. Bystanders who had recognized him made attempts to convince the policemen that he was a part…
Kevin Pietersen, the former captain, was vehement in the defense of both out-of-form Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, saying they don’t even ‘deserve’ questions about their retirement yet. For him, one poor tour of Australia in the 2024-25 Border-Gavaskar Trophy does not make them ‘bad cricketers’ or ‘bad people’ for Pietersen. He believes that people who are ‘questioning’ them should stop looking at ‘statistics’ and consider how Kohli and Rohit have ‘made them feel. Kohli and Rohit have had a very average last six months in international cricket after the T20 World Cup 2024. Kohli scored one century in the…
India triumphed three years ago on February 5, yet another occasion when it can claim supremacy in Under-19 cricket.

They had come into this event as the finalists of the 2020 edition, where they lost to Bangladesh by three wickets. With an imposing English side awaiting in the final, India, as they were called, appeared unaffected. They displayed skill and character in the holding…
