Rohit Sharma, Gautam Gambhir’s Unmissable Act As Virat Kohli Takes India Home vs Pakistan

Screengrab of Rohit Sharma and Gautam Gambhir applauding.© X (Twitter) Virat Kohli returned to his masterful best, completing his 51st ODI century and leading India home against Pakistan in the high voltage Champions Trophy 2025 clash. Chasing 242, Kohli took control after the departure of Shubman Gill, and paced his innings brilliantly. Kohli brought up his century – and the winning runs – with a superb cover drive, as India broke into celebrations. Leading the applause were India captain Rohit Sharma and India head coach Gautam Gambhir, who gave a standing ovation. Given the tensions that were anticipated between Kohli and Gambhir ahead of the latter’s appointment as head coach, and the reports of dressing room rifts that followed during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, the atmosphere appears to be reaching a point of harmony at the right time. A target of 242 was never going to be particularly daunting for Team India given the form that they’re in. However, Virat Kohli ensured that no fan needed to break even a drop of sweat. Kohli …

Shoulder-Barging Saga Returns, This India Star Clashes With Pakistan Captain Mohammad Rizwan. Watch

During the high voltage clash between India and Pakistan in Champions Trophy 2025, an unwanted incident occurred. Shoulder-barging, which grabbed several headlines during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, reared its ugly head once again. This time, the two players involved were India pacer Harshit Rana and Pakistan captain Mohammad Rizwan. The incident took place when Rizwan was attempting to take a run. Harshit seemed to give a shrug of shock following the incident. However, it did not seem like any malice was involved. After Rizwan and Harshit clashed shoulders, Harshit seemed to spread his hands out in a reaction of surprise. Rizwan, on the other hand, only looked back for a few seconds before turning around and completing his run. Rizwan ultimately a 77-ball 46, while Harshit ended with figures of 1/30 in 7.4 overs.

India vs Pakistan: Mohammed Shami Achieves Big Unwanted Record, Surpasses Jasprit Bumrah

India vs Pakistan: Mohammed Shami Achieves Big Unwanted Record, Surpasses Jasprit Bumrah

The match between archrivals India and Pakistan in the Champions Trophy saw an erratic start for the Rohit Sharma-led side as pacer Mohammed Shami bowled five wides in the opening over of the high-stakes encounter and registered an unwanted record to his name. Shami took 11 balls to complete his six-ball over, surpassing Jasprit Bumrah’s nine-ball over to bowl the longest over by an Indian in the Champions Trophy. Coincidentally, Bumrah’s nine-ball over also came against Pakistan in the 2017 Champions Trophy final at the Oval, which India lost by 180 runs to miss out on their second tournament title. Shami’s five wides was also the most by any bowler in the opening over of the Champions Trophy. However, Tinashe Panyangara of Zimbabwe holds the record of bowling most wides (seven) in an over in the tournament. The Indian pacer was not looking at his best and was attended by team physio on the ground during his third over, after which he went off the field for a brief period before returning later. …

“Pakistan Have No Chance Of Beating India”: Ex-Pakistan Spinner Has No Hope Ahead Of Mega Clash

Former Pakistan spinner Danish Kaneria opined that the Mohammad Rizwan-led side has no chance of winning against India in their Champions Trophy spectacle at Dubai International Stadium on Sunday. Kaneria backed his statement by highlighting Pakistan’s dismal run in the recent series including the loss in the Tri-Nation Series and 1-1 draw against West Indies in the Test series on home soil. On the other hand, the veteran spinner cited India’s example of how they crushed England in the white-ball series after the debacle in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia. “After the debacle in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia, India defeated England in the white-ball series at home. They got their confidence back as Rohit, Virat scored runs while Shami also returned to the team and silenced critics with his bowling and bags fifer against Bangladesh,” Kaneria told IANS. He added that India’s spinners will pose difficulty to Babar Azam due to the presence of left-arm bowlers – Ravindra Jadeja and Axar Patel. “India have better spinners and Babar Azam struggles against left-arm …

Pakistan face arch-rivals India in a Champions Trophy blockbuster on Sunday in front of a sell-out Dubai crowd knowing that another defeat will virtually end their title defence.

Mohammad Rizwan’s side were well beaten by New Zealand by 60 runs in the opening game of the ODI competition in Karachi and realistically need to beat favourites India to stay in the hunt for a semi-final spot in the eight-nation tournament. New Zealand top Group A ahead of India — who beat Bangladesh on Thursday by six wickets — on a better run-rate. Pakistan are fourth and bottom of the group. The top two teams from each of the two groups make the semi-finals. …
