"Special Thing To Contribute In Both Departments": Shivam Dube After India's Win Over Zimbabwe In 5th T20I

Though Sanju Samson and Mukesh Kumar were the chief contributors in India's 42-run win over Zimbabwe in the fifth and final game to win series 4-1, Shivam Dube's contribution in all departments of the game got him the Player of the Match award. At the Harare Sports Club on Sunday, Dube played a handy cameo of 26 off 12 balls to take India's total to an above-par 167/6. He then took two wickets with his tight medium-pace bowling, and even manufactured an important direct hit to get Sikandar Raza out, to shut the door on Zimbabwe's chances of winning the game.

Hunger To Win, Adapting To Conditions Quickly Helped Us Bounce Back: Shubman Gill

The hunger to bounce back and adaptive skills helped Indian team pull itself up following the shocking loss in the series opener to win the remaining four matches against Zimbabwe, said skipper Shubman Gill in Harare on Sunday. India suffered an unexpected 13-run loss in the first game of the five-match series as the team fell short of chasing a modest 115-run total on July 6. But the visitors quickly put the disappointment on the back-burner to win the series 4-1.

PCB's Big Threat If Team India Refuses To Travel To Pakistan For Champions Trophy 2025: Report

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has taken a firm stance on hosting the Champions Trophy 2025 entirely within its territory, dismissing any considerations for a hybrid model. In a tit-for-tat move, the PCB has reportedly threatened to pull out of the 2026 T20 World Cup, set to be co-hosted by India and Sri Lanka, if the Indian team refuses to travel to Pakistan for the Champions Trophy. According to a Geo News report, the PCB is steadfast on hosting the entire tournament in Pakistan and will oppose any hybrid model proposals during the ICC's annual conference in Colombo from July 19-22.

India To Not Travel To Pakistan For Champions Trophy 2025? BCCI Vice-President Rajeev Shukla Breaks Silence

The Champions Trophy 2025 that is set to be hosted completely by Pakistan has become a hot topic. It is the uncertainty of India's participation at the event that has made the major ICC tournament a talking point. Given that the entire event is being hosted by Pakistan, India would be needing to visit the nation in case it takes part in the event. The Board of Control for Cricket (BCCI) reportedly requested the International Cricket Council (ICC) to get the tournament shifted out of Pakistan or schedule India's matches at a neutral venue, but no development has been made on those lines by the apex cricket board.

KKR Reunion? Shreyas Iyer Sweats It Out Ahead Of Gautam Gambhir's Debut Series As India Coach

Gautam Gambhir will make his highly-anticipated debut as head coach of the Indian team during the upcoming white-ball tour of Sri Lanka, starting July 26. Gambhir's appointment as head coach was made official earlier this week, after Rahul Dravid's tenure came to an end last month following the T20 World Cup triumph. Gambhir arrives at the helm with high expectations, especially after he masterminded Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) IPL-winning campaign earlier this year. The former India opener developed a great partnership with head coach Chandrakant Pandit and captain Shreyas Iyer as KKR ended a 10-year wait to lift the IPL title.

Arguably the greatest fast bowler to have ever played the game, England's James Anderson played his final Test on Friday as the hosts trounced West Indies by an innings and 114 runs at the Lord's. Anderson signed off on a high, claiming four wickets to retire with 704 wickets, which is the most by any pacer in the history of Test cricket. Anderson bows out as the third highest-wicket taker in the longest format of the game, only behind Sri Lanka's Muttiah Muralitharan (800) and Australia's late great Shane Warne (708).
