India Star, Who Has 170 Test Wickets, Opens Up About IPL 2025 Snub : “Shocking…”

India Star, Who Has 170 Test Wickets, Opens Up About IPL 2025 Snub : “Shocking…”

IPL 2025 mega auctions took place in November last year and all the ten franchises built their respective teams for the upcoming edition. With a number of changes in the retention rules, many shocking buys were made and whopping amount of money was spent by all the teams. On one hand, India wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant, who was sold to Lucknow Super Giants for Rs 27 crore, bagged the highest amount in the history of IPL auctions, many big names remained unsold. One such name was of veteran India pacer Umesh Yadav, who surprisingly went unsold in the auctions. Umesh, who has played for four teams – Delhi Capitals, Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Kolkata Knight Riders, and Gujarat Titans, failed to attract any buyers for the upcoming seasons. The 37-year-old pacer recently opened up about his snub and called it “shocking” and “disturbing”. “Everyone knows that I wasn’t selected for the IPL this year. I have been playing for 15 years. It (unsold at IPL 2025) is very shocking for me. Why should I lie? …

LSG’s Latest Pace Sensation Yash Thakur Names His Bowling Idol. Not Jasprit Bumrah

After producing a match-winning performance for Lucknow Super Giants against Gujarat Titans in the ongoing Indian Premier League, Yash Thakur named Umesh Yadav and MS Dhoni as his idols. In the absence of Mayank Yadav, Thakur starred with a sensational spell as he dismantled GT’s batting set-up and guided LSG to a 33-run win. After GT got off to a brisk start in the powerplay, Thakur castled skipper Shubman Gill which opened the floodgates and allowed LSG to mount a comeback. After the game, Thakur disclosed the names of two Indian stars who he considers his idols. GT’s veteran pacer Umesh was the first name he mentioned and revealed that he started practising fast bowling because of him. “My idol is Umesh Yadav, from my city. I started to practice fast bowling because of him. When I got to play against him, I got to learn a lot. He is very humble. Even if I call him at 12 at night, he will help me,” Thakur said in a video posted by IPL. He went …

Shreyas Iyer’s Dismal Ranji Trophy Form Continues, Loses Wicket To Ex-KKR Teammate For…

Shreyas Iyer‘s dismal form in domestic cricket continued as he was dismissed after scoring just seven runs for Mumbai in the Ranji Trophy final against Vidarbha on Sunday. Iyer has struggled against the short ball in the past and that was exactly the strategy that his former Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) teammate Umesh Yadav employed to end his innings. Umesh bowled four short deliveries in a row to the right-hander before an outswinger that struck Iyer’s inside edge. The ball flew to Karun Nair in the first slip and the fielder made no mistake in completing the catch and piled on Iyer’s misery. The India batter has not performed well in the two Ranji matches since BCCI’s central contract snub. Earlier. India head coach Rahul Dravid shared a message for out-of-favour batters Shreyas Iyer and Ishan Kishan that they need to get fit, play and force selectors to ‘pick them again’. Last month, Iyer and Jaiswal were “not considered” for the BCCI annual contracts in this round of recommendations. After both players were snubbed from the contracts, BCCI Secretary Jay …

Ignored For England Test Series, India Star’s Cryptic ‘Story Not Over’ Post Goes Viral

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) named the squad for the remaining three Tests of the five-match series against England on Saturday. After the team announcement, India’s out-of-favour pacer Umesh Yadav put a cryptic post on his Instagram story and fans wasted no time in relating it to the bowler being overlooked for England Tests. In the changes in the fast bowling line-up, India roped in Akash Deep, giving a maiden Test call-up to the pacer. Meanwhile, Umesh stayed out of consideration. He last played for India in June 2023, which happened to be a Test match vs Australia at The Oval. “Kitaabon par dhool jamne se, kahaaniyan khatm nahi hoti (Stories don’t get over with dust accumulating on books,” read the Instagram story of Umesh.

Umesh Yadav Duped Of Rs 44 Lakh By Ex-Manager Under Pretext Of Buying Land

Umesh Yadav was cheated by his friend-turned-manager© BCCI Ace Indian pacer Umesh Yadav has been allegedly cheated of Rs 44 lakh by his friend-turned-manager under the pretext of purchasing a plot in the former’s name in Nagpur city of Maharashtra, police said on Saturday. A police official said a case was registered against Shailesh Thakre for cheating on a complaint lodged by Yadav, a resident of Nagpur. Thakre (37) is a resident of Koradi and a friend of Yadav. No arrest is made yet.  After Yadav was selected as a member of the Indian cricket team, he appointed his friend Thakre as his manager on July 15, 2014, as the latter was unemployed, the official said quoting the First Information Report (FIR).  “Thakre gained the trust of Yadav over time. He started handling all the financial affairs of Umesh Yadav. He used to handle Yadav’s bank account, income tax and other financial tasks,” he said.  The official said Yadav was looking for land for buying in Nagpur and asked Thakre. “Thakre located a plot in a …

“It Happened To Me Also”: India Star On Kuldeep Yadav’s Surprise Exclusion From 2nd Test

Last match hero Kuldeep Yadav’s exclusion from the Indian playing eleven for the ongoing second Test against Bangladesh may have surprised many, but senior pacer Umesh Yadav on Thursday said it’s a “management call”, something every cricketer has to deal with. Kuldeep was the player of the match in India’s 188-run win against Bangladesh in the first Test with the left-arm wrist spinner returning with a match haul of eight wickets, besides scoring a useful 40 runs in the visiting team’s first innings. But to everyone’s shock, Kuldeep was left out for the second and final Test here as the Rahul Dravid-coached side opted for an extra pacer in Jaydev Unadkat. “It’s part of your journey. It happened to me also. Sometimes you are out of the team because of performance and sometimes it’s a management’s call. You have to go with the team’s requirements,” Umesh told reporters after the end of first day’s play. “It’s good for him (Kuldeep) that he came back and performed well (in the first Test in Chattogram).” Spearheading the …

India Steady After Umesh Yadav, Ravichandran Ashwin Take Four Each To Bowl Out Bangladesh For 227

Umesh Yadav and Ravichandran Ashwin claimed four wickets apiece Thursday as India bowled out Bangladesh for 227 runs in their first innings of the second Test in Dhaka. Mominul Haque top-scored with 84 but Bangladesh lost wickets at regular intervals to end their innings about an hour before stumps after electing to bat first. India reached 19-0 before bad light forced an early end to the opening day, with six overs still to be played. Stand-in India skipper KL Rahul was batting on three with Shubman Gill 14 not out at stumps. Rahul was given out leg-before on three off Shakib in the final over of the day, but the decision was reversed after review. Umesh earlier picked up 4-25 and Ashwin grabbed 4-71 as India stopped the hosts from building a significant partnership, despite several batsmen getting decent starts. Mushfiqur Rahim (26), Liton Das (25) and Najmul Hossain (24) were all unable to lend Mominul an extended spell of support. Mominul, playing his first match in the series, departed as the ninth wicket when …

“Environment In Indian Cricket At Moment Is…”: Ex-India Player Backs KL Rahul Amidst Criticism

Team India registered a 188-run victory over Bangladesh in the first Test of the two-match series in Chattogram. Shubman Gill smashed his maiden Test ton while Cheteshwar Pujara brought up his century after a hiatus of three years, as India posted a target of 513 runs. In return, Bangladesh were bundled out at 324, with Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav scalping four and three wickets respectively. In the absence of their regular skipper Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul led Team India in the match but failed to shine with the bat. In the two innings, the opening batter scored only 22 and 23 runs. Rahul, who has been facing harsh criticism for his lean patch, was backed by former India batter Aakash Chopra, who stated that people are “fickle minded” as they want the Karnataka batter to get dropped just because some other player is doing well. “There is nothing much to see from India’s viewpoint. You want KL Rahul to score runs because he is an amazing player. It is not that he has become …

Rishabh Pant Takes Relay Catch After Virat Kohli’s Error. Do Not Miss KL Rahul’s Reaction – Watch

Bangladesh openers, Zakir Hasan and Najmul Hossain Shanto, frustrated the India bowlers on the fourth day of the first Test in Chattogram. Chasing a mammoth target of 513, Zakir, playing his first Test, slammed a century while Shanto also scored a well-crafted 67. The pair added 124 runs for the opening wicket, before Umesh Yadav finally got the breakthrough India had been craving for at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium on Saturday. The incident took place in the 47th over of the Bangladesh innings when Shanto edged Umesh’s delivery to first slip. While Virat Kohli, who has one of safest pair of hands in world cricket, spilled it, Rishabh Pant showed quick reflexes to complete the relay catch. After the cherry popped out of Kohli’s hand, Pant dived to his left and juggled the ball once before grabbing it with both hands. India stand-in captain KL Rahul was a relieved man as he joined hands and bowed in front of Pant to acknowledge his catch. Brilliant Catch From Rishabh Pant!
