Axar Patel: From Journeyman To India's Man Friday In White-Ball Formats

Kane Williamson stood between India and an all-win record in the Champions Trophy group stage, keeping New Zealand's chase of 250 flickering with a polished 81. Till then batting judiciously, Williamson gave a full-hearted charge against Axar Patel and the slightly slanted delivery evaded his downcoming bat for KL Rahul to complete the stumping. It was the last ball of Axar's spell that read 10-0-32-1, and stood out for its accuracy and the cunningness to maximise his ability in favourable conditions. But the effort understandably went unnoticed in the din surrounding fellow spinner Varun Chakravarthy's five-wicket haul.

Gautam Gambhir Issues Clear Statement On Virat Kohli's Future After Champions Trophy

Indian head coach Gautam Gambhir was all praise for star batter Virat Kohli following his match-winning chase masterclass against Australia in the ICC Champions Trophy semifinal, saying that he knows how to plan his runs and adapt to conditions really quickly. Virat's masterclass knock of 84 during a run-chase of 265 in tricky conditions pushed India from 43/2 to a memorable four-wicket win, taking India to the final of the Champions Trophy, where they will be playing either New Zealand or South Africa.

"After Opening In Australia...": KL Rahul Gives Honest Thoughts On Demotion To No. 6

Since becoming a full-time number 5 in ODIs, KL Rahul has expanded his range as a middle-order batter. Since 2020, he has averaged 61.52 in that position--higher than anyone else with a minimum of 20 innings, including Heinrich Klaasen, whose average is nearly seven points lower. However, leading up to the Champions Trophy, India wanted to introduce variety in their right-hand-heavy lineup and decided to promote Axar Patel to No. 5. As a result, Rahul shifted down to No. 6 but has quickly adapted, working extensively on his power-hitting.

Virat Kohli Shatters Sachin Tendulkar's Record, Achieves Huge Milestone Against Australia

Indian cricket team star batter Virat Kohli shattered Sachin Tendulkar's record during the Champions Trophy 2025 encounter against Australia in Dubai on Tuesday. Kohli looked comfortable against the Australia bowlers and was able to score a gritty half-century. Thanks to this knock, he has the most 50-plus scores in ICC ODI tournaments (24) as he went past Sachin's record of 23. India captain Rohit Sharma is currently third with 18 while Sri Lanka legend Kumar Sangakkara has 17. Former Australia skipper Ricky Ponting holds the fifth position in the illustrious list with 16 50-plus scores.

India's Unwanted Record Sparks Meme Fest. Internet Says "Rohit Sharma..."

Australia captain Steve Smith won the toss and elected to bat first in the first semi-final of the ongoing Champions Trophy, in Dubai. While India are unchanged from their last match, Australia made two changes as Cooper Connolly comes in for Matt Short and spinner Tanveer Sangha replaced pacer Spencer Johnson. India have now lost 14 consecutive tosses in a row, the longest such streak in ODIs - one that started with the CWC 2023 final between these two sides in Ahmedabad. Meanwhile, Rohit has now lost 11 consecutive tosses in ODIs, the joint second-highest in ODIs.
