After India's thumping six-wicket win over Pakistan in the Champions Trophy, BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia lauded the team for their effort and advised them to not be complacent and focus on the big matches ahead.

During the match, Kohli became the fastest batter to complete 14,000 ODI runs and also surpassed Mohammad Azharuddin's feat for most catches for India as a fielder in ODIs.

"Will Harm Jay Shah...": On Rohit Sharma, BCCI's 'Pakistan Stance' For Champions Trophy, Ex-Star's Warning

The Champions Trophy 2025 is less than a month away as top teams around the the world gear up for the marquee event. The tournament is being held following much dilly-dallying after the BCCI refused to send the Indian cricket team to Pakistan, the designated hosts of the Champions Trophy 2025. Ultimately, a middle ground was reached wherein India will play its matches in Dubai, while Pakistan will play at neutral venues during any ICC event held in India in the next couple of years. Just when things look settled, another confusion rose with no clarity over whether Rohit Sharma would travel to Pakistan for the Champions Trophy 2025 opening ceremony and customary captain's meet.

Indian cricket team skipper Rohit Sharma's disastrous form continued as he was dismissed for just 3 during the Ranji Trophy encounter between Mumbai and Jammu and Kashmir on Thursday. Rohit, who played his first Ranji match since 2015, looked quite uncomfortable against the bouncers from the Jammu and Kashmir bowlers. Rohit scored just 3 runs off 19 deliveries before he was dismissed by fast bowler Umar Nazir Mir. It was a short of length delivery from Mir and Rohit completely miscued his shot.  Yudhvir Singh was placed perfectly to complete the catch as Rohit's innings came to an end.
