Shreyas Iyer's 3-Word Post After Nearly Being Benched For 1st ODI Against England

Shreyas Iyer truly made his intent clear as he smashed a quick-fire fifty in India's 4-wicket victory against England during the 1st ODI on Thursday. The batter, who came out to play at the No. 4 slot, was nearly benched for the series opener but an injury to Virat Kohli paved the way for his place in the team. After the end of the match, Iyer shared a fiery post on social media, speaking his mind as he made a memorable return to the national team.

Rohit Sharma, Gautam Gambhir Blasted As Shreyas Iyer Says He Only Played As Virat Kohli Was Injured

India's nearly comfortable 4-wicket victory against England in the first ODI of the 3-match series saw some proven performers rise to the occasion. Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer were the top-scoring batters for India on Thursday, scoring 87 and 59 respectively while skipper Rohit Sharma flopped yet again. However, the team also missed the ever-reliant No. 3 Virat Kohli in the game due to an injury, while Yashasvi Jaiswal made his ODI debut. However, a rather shocking development took place after the conclusion of the match as Shreyas Iyer revealed that he wasn't originally supposed to play the match.

Rohit Sharma Reveals Masterplan Behind Axar Patel's Promotion, Ahead of KL Rahul And Hardik Pandya

Skipper Rohit Sharma on Thursday said there isn't anything specific which the Indian team wants to try and achieve ahead of the Champions Trophy but would look to keep ticking all the boxes like they did against England in the first ODI in Nagpur. Barring a minor hiccup towards the end of a modest 249-run chase when they slipped from 221/3 to 235/6, India produced a near-perfect show to take a 1-0 lead with a four-wicket win. "Nothing specific. Overall as a team, I just want us to keep making sure that we keep doing the right things as often as possible. There is nothing specific that we want to try and achieve," Rohit told the broadcaster after the match.

"Knee Swelled Once We...": Virat Kohli Injury Update Increases Rohit Sharma's Headache

It isn't often that Virat Kohli goes on to miss a match due to an injury but the talismanic batter had no option but to sit out of the first ODI against England due to a knee trouble. Kohli's knee was heavily strapped when during practice sessions ahead of the series opener but some swelling was witnessed once the players returned to the hotel. The situation prompted the team management - including skipper Rohit Sharma and head coach Gautam Gambhir - to have a Plan B ready, which was Shreyas Iyer. After Virat went on to miss the first ODI, a big update has emerged for the second match.

The injury suffered by senior batter Virat Kohli ahead of Thursday's first ODI against England in Nagpur may turn out to be a minor setback for India as the issue does not look serious and the former India captain is likely to be back in the next match. India captain Rohit Sharma informed at the toss that Kohli had injured his right knee during practice on Wednesday evening and therefore was withdrawn from the first ODI. Though both the Indian team management and Kohli himself would feel disappointed in losing the opportunity to play the match, the injury seems minor.

Champions Trophy: ECB Confirms England Will Play Match Against Afghanistan Amid Calls For Boycott

The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has confirmed that England's men's team will play their scheduled ICC Men's Champions Trophy 2025 fixture against Afghanistan, scheduled on February 26 in Lahore, despite growing calls for a boycott due to the severe oppression of women's rights in Afghanistan under the Taliban regime. ECB Chair Richard Thompson acknowledged the widespread concerns over gender discrimination in Afghanistan and emphasised the importance of a coordinated international response rather than unilateral action.

1st ODI: Disappointed Not To Win The Game Against India, Says Jos Buttler

England's current tour of India is turning out to be a story of missed chances as Jos Buttler's team once again failed to exploit the slight edge they got both with the bat and ball to end up on the losing side in the first ODI against India at the Vidarbha Cricket Association (VCA) Stadium in Nagpur on Thursday. England had similarly failed to come on top of the situation in the preceding T20I series and lost it 4-1 after winning the third match to reduce the margin. In the first ODI on Thursday, England made a good start by reaching 70-odd runs without loss in the power-play before they made a hash of things and lost wickets in a cluster to be bowled out for 248.

1st ODI: Shubman Gill Anchors India To 4-Wicket Win Over England, Harshit Rana Impresses On Debut

Vice-captain Shubman Gill orchestrated India's chase with grace, while debutant Harshit Rana dazzled with the ball as the hosts registered a four-wicket win against England in the series opener in Nagpur on Thursday. Gill (87), Shreyas Iyer (59), and Axar Patel (52) rose to the occasion, guiding India to a commanding chase after Rana (3/53 from 7 overs) and the seasoned left-arm spinner Ravindra Jadeja (3/26 from 9) shared six wickets between them, dismantling England for a below-par 248. Rana's fourth over, which claimed the twin wickets of Ben Duckett and Harry Brook, decisively stifled the England innings, putting India firmly in control as the visitors never managed to rebuild despite fifties by skipper Jos Buttler (52) and Jack Bethell (51).
