Saurashtra vs Delhi, Ranji Trophy LIVE Streaming: Delhi take on Saurashtra in the Ranji Trophy 2024/25, in a game that sees the domestic cricket return of two India stalwarts, in the form of Rishabh Pant and Ravindra Jadeja. Pant returns to the Ranji circuit after a seven-year absence, but won't captain Delhi, choosing to play under soon-to-be Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) teammate Ayush Badoni. Jadeja last played Ranji Trophy in January 2023, and will turn out for Saurashtra, under the captaincy of veteran pacer Jaydev Unadkat. Delhi sit fourth in the Elite Group D table, while Saurashtra are sixth.
The jury is still out on his coaching methodology as far as traditional formats are concerned but India's young T20 stars, including opener Abhishek Sharma gave a thumbs up to embattled Gautam Gambhir after the hosts blitzed past England by seven wickets in the opening match here on Wednesday. The 24-year-old struck 79 off just 34 balls to help India chase down a small target of 133 in just 12.5 overs at the Eden Gardens. "I wanted to express myself but special mention to captain (Suryakumar Yadav) and coach (Gambhir), the freedom they have given us as youngsters is tremendous," Abhishek said at the post-match presentation ceremony.
BCCI's recent 10-point diktat on players, after Indian cricket team's disastrous performance in the Border Gavaskar Trophy against Australia, had the whole world talking. From making playing in domestic cricket mandatory to restricting number of days wives and families can stay with the team to limited endorsement shoots, the rules have come in place to set the house in order. Following the diktat, senior players like Rohit Sharma, Ravindra Jadeja, Rishabh Pant, Shubman Gill are playing Ranji Trophy after a long gap.
Mumbai vs Jammu and Kashmir, Ranji Trophy Day 1, Live Updates: The highly-anticipated Ranji Trophy fixture is here as Mumbai are all set to take on Jammu and Kashmir. India Test skipper Rohit Sharma will be featuring for Mumbai under the captaincy of Ajinkya Rahane and marking his return to Ranji Trophy after a hiatus of ten years. In all likelihood, Mumbai will pair him with Yashasvi Jaiswal at the top, replicating the India combination, when they will face a formidable Jammu and Kashmir, currently placed second in Elite Group A. The outing with Mumbai is expected to benefit India's out-of-sorts Test and ODI skipper Rohit, who has endured a horror run with the bat over the last three months.
Well past the deadline set by the International Cricket Council, the Pakistan Cricket Board is yet to announce its squad for the Champions Trophy. The unreasonable delay in announcing squad for the marquee event has left many baffled, including former Pakistan cricketer Basit Ali, who has repeatedly questioned the board's preparedness for the event. "Pakistan kya darr gaya jo abhi tak team announce nahi ki? Nahi dara nahi hai. Samajh nahi aa rahi hai -- karein to kya karein? (Is Pakistan scared to announce their squad? No, it isn't, just unsure what to do and what not)," said Basit in a video on his YouTube channel.
Indian cricket team star Sanju Samson's father Samson Viswanath has made some serious allegations against Kerala Cricket Association (KCA). Recently, reports came that Samson's absence from Kerala's Vijay Hazare Trophy campaign reportedly played a big role in his omission from the Champions Trophy. Samson wasn't part of Kerala's camp, which reportedly led to him not being picked for the Vijay Hazare Trophy campaign by the state team. While Samson claimed to have made his unavailability clear beforehand, KCA chief Jayesh Jeorge wasn't impressed by receiving only a 'one-line text' from the wicket-keeper batter.
Abhishek Sharma smashed a blistering 34-ball-79 in an exhibition of breathtaking power-hitting on the back of a disciplined bowling effort, as India outplayed England by seven wickets in the first T20I in Kolkata on Wednesday. India now lead the five-match series 1-0. On a day when Gautam Gambhir's coaching set-up made headlines by delaying Mohammed Shami's much-anticipated return to international cricket, India bundled out England for a paltry 132 at Eden Gardens, where the average first-innings score is around 195.
