MS Dhoni's Big Revelation On Texting Virat Kohli After 2022 Captaincy Row: "Not Great..."

Former India captain MS Dhoni has opened up on his equation with star batter Virat Kohli. While their on-the-field camaraderie is a secret to none, Dhoni isn't great in staying touch with people off the field. While his current and former teammates have complained about not being able to contact Dhoni when he is not playing cricket. However, with Kohli, Dhoni seems to share a special bond. For the unversed, Dhoni texted Kohli after the latter decided to step down as captain of the Indian test team in January 2022, just after the tour of South Africa.

"Cheap Mentality": Shaheen Afridi Accused Of Deliberately Bowling Wides To Deny Virat Kohli Century

The India vs Pakistan, Champions Trophy 2025 clash was a dream game for star batter Virat Kohli. He was going through a lean patch with the bat, but rose to the occasion in style as India outplayed arch-rivals Pakistan by 6 wickets at Dubai International Cricket Stadium. Kohli slammed a 100 not out as the Rohit Sharma-led side chased down a paltry target of 242 runs against Pakistan in 42.3 overs. It was Kohli's 51st century in ODI cricket, but that came after giving the fans some really tense moments. As Kohli was nearing his ton, India were also close to the victory line. At one point it even looked like the win will prevent Kohli's century as the required runs towards the end were quite few.

England Star Trolled Brutally For Old "India" Comment After Champions Trophy 2025 Exit

England batter Ben Duckett was trolled brutally on social media for his old comment on the Indian cricket team after his side's elimination from the ongoing Champions Trophy 2025. Afghanistan registered a sensational victory over England on Wednesday as the Jos Buttler-led side was knocked out of the semi-final race. Following the defeat, social media users were quick to remind Duckett about his old comment where he said that he did not care about the 3-0 ODI series loss against India if England can beat the Rohit Sharma-led side in the Champions Trophy final. However, while India won both of their matches in the tournament, England were eliminated with one match in hand.

Jos Buttler Provides Big England Captaincy Update After Champions Trophy Exit

England skipper Jos Buttler said he wouldn't like to make any "emotional statements" on his captaincy but "all possibilities" are on the table after his side was shockingly eliminated from the Champions Trophy by Afghanistan on Wednesday. A listless England, barring Joe Root who smashed a century, suffered an eight-run defeat against the Afghans, and it pushed them out of the marquee event prematurely. Chasing 326 for victory, England were bundled out for 317 with Afghanistan batter Ibrahim Zadran smashing a superb 177 and pacer Azmatullah Omarzai grabbing a five-wicket haul. "I don't want to say any emotional statements right now. But I think for myself and the other guys at the top, we should consider all possibilities," said Buttler in the post match presentation on his future as the England white-ball skipper.
