Jonatan Christie bakal menjadi ujung tombak tunggal putra Indonesia di Piala Sudirman 2025. Begini cara pelatih mempersiapkan Jojo, sapaan akrabnya.
India captain Rohit Sharma has recalled his decision to opt out of the decisive Sydney Test of the Border Gavaskar Trophy against Australia, saying that he took the call for the betterment of the team. Speaking to former Australia captain Michael Clarke on Beyond23 Cricket Podcast, Rohit recalled his chat with head coach Gautam Gambhir and the chairman of selectors Ajit Agarkar before the game, adding that the two had contrasting views after informing them that he won't play in Sydney. Rohit scored just 164 runs in 15 innings, at an average of 10.83, as India lost the Border Gavaskar Trophy for the first time in a decade.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru's designated finisher Jitesh Sharma said batting down the order has redesigned the value of his knocks, and he is now treating scores of 30s or 40s as equivalent to a fifty. Jitesh has often strode out to bat at No 6 in IPL 2025 and his most significant contribution thus far has been a 40 off 19 balls in RCB's 12-run win over Mumbai Indians a few days back. “Now everyone seems to be a finisher. But it's a difficult job to bat at No 6, No 7 because ever since I started finishing, I haven't scored a fifty. I was an opener. Earlier I used to score fifties and centuries,” Jitesh said in the latest episode of RCB Bold Diaries.
Punjab Kings (PBKS) spinner Yuzvendra Chahal tied with Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) legend Sunil Narine for most four-wicket hauls in the history of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Chahal achieved this milestone during his side's match against KKR at Mullanpur on Tuesday. During the match, Chahal delivered a game-changing spell of 4/28 in four overs, getting wickets of Ajinkya Rahane, Angkrish Raghuvanshi, Rinku Singh and Ramandeep Singh that made KKR collapse from 62/2 to 95 all out while chasing 112 runs.
Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) received a major boost as the fast bowler Mayank Yadav has joined the squad. The 22-year-old pacer is likely to be available for LSG's next game against the Rajasthan Royals on Saturday. LSG announced Mayank's return with a special video on their social media, accompanied by the caption, "Mayank Yadav is back". Mayank has been sidelined with a back injury and was close to returning earlier this season before a freak toe injury — sustained after stubbing it against his bed — caused an infection that further delayed his comeback.
Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) all-rounder Sunil Narine has a world-renowned reputation of being an explosive hitter of the cricket ball. However, the West Indian had to face embarrassment during the match against Punjab Kings (PBKS) on Tuesday when he failed the customary bat check. The Indian Premier League (IPL) Governing Council has introduced random bat checks during games to prevent players from gaining an unfair advantage in games. When Narine's bat was checked as he was preparing to walk out, it was found to be breaching the acceptable limit.
As Rishabh Pant showed signs of a return to form with his 49-ball 63 against Chennai Super Kings, former Indian cricketer Wasim Jaffer said that the Lucknow Super Giants captain should also focus on improving strike rotation. Jaffer highlighted Pant's tendency to get stuck and then resort to big shots. He suggested that Pant needs to improve his strike rotation skills while emphasising Kohli's mastery in this area.
An inconsistent Mumbai Indians will hope that ace pacer Jasprit Bumrah returns to his menacing best, which is essential for them to stop an explosive Sunrisers Hyderabad batting unit in its tracks in a potentially high-scoring IPL match in Mumbai on Thursday. Coming off a three-month long injury layoff, Bumrah is yet to find the accuracy which makes him a tough customer to deal with. After a rather tidy outing against Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Bumrah struggled to nail his yorkers and was taken apart by Delhi Capitals' Karun Nair as he leaked 44 runs in that game.
