India Receive Massive Boost Ahead Of Champions Trophy 2025 Semifinals

India's bowling coach Morne Morkel has rejoined the team after attending to a personal emergency back home and was part of the squad's training session on Wednesday. Morkel had to leave the Indian camp a couple of days before the team's Champions Trophy opener against Bangladesh on February 20. The former South Africa pacer was seen having a long chat with head coach Gautam Gambhir as the players did their warm-up drills at the ICC Academy here. Shubman Gill, who has been India's stand out batter in the tournament, was the only one who did not turn up for practice.

Virat Kohli Spends Extra Time With Spinners Ahead Of Champions Trophy Semi-Finals

The Indian cricket team had a strenuous training session on Wednesday with talismanic batter Virat Kohli spending a lot of time facing spinners even as bowling coach Morne Morkel rejoined the side after attending to a personal emergency back home. Virat not only faced the likes of Kuldeep Yadav, Axar Patel and Ravindra Jadeja during the training session but also spent more than half an hour plying the net bowlers ahead of the clash against New Zealand on Sunday. Pace bowling stalwart Mohammed Shami too was seen bowling at full tilt, swinging the ball both ways and rapping Kohli twice on his pads, while Harshit Rana and Arshdeep Singh too looked determined to give their best during the session.

"Virat Kohli Got A 100, Now Up To...": Rohit Sharma Thrown Major Champions Trophy 2025 Challenge

For Lalchand Rajput, it was a plunge into an unknown territory when he was appointed manager of a young Indian team for the inaugural T20 World Cup in 2007. No one gave them a chance, but they still triumphed. Nearly 18 years later, the 63-year-old former player is backing an Indian team full of world beaters to not just win another prestigious ICC event, but do so convincingly. "This Indian team looks ruthless. They try to dominate and win every game. They don't want to give the opponents a chance to come back into the game. That is the attitude. And the way they are playing, I think they should win the Champions Trophy convincingly," Rajput told PTI on Tuesday. Rajput is currently the head coach of UAE cricket team, and watched Virat Kohli score his 51st ODI century in the six-wicket win over Pakistan in Dubai on Sunday, and he now expects skipper Rohit Sharma to smash his way to a big hundred.

"No Truth...": Pakistan Star's Blunt Take On Retirement Rumours After Champions Trophy 2025 Exit

Injured Pakistan batter Fakhar Zaman has rubbished rumours about his retirement, saying he wants to continue playing all forms of cricket and should be fit for national duty in a month's time. Zaman got hurt during Pakistan's opening match in the Champions Trophy against New Zealand in Karachi, and was later ruled out of the marquee tournament owing to a recurring knee injury. He was replaced in the squad by Imam-ul-Haq. Following the injury, the social media was abuzz with rumours that the 34-year-old top-order batter was planning to end his cricketing career. "Well, I've also heard a lot about this and my friends have also sent messages. There is no truth in this. One-day is my favourite format and, yes, because of my thyroid (problem) I was thinking of taking some time off from cricket.

Ibrahim Zadran Surpasses Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly To Become First Player Ever To...

Opener Ibrahim Zadran struck a Champions Trophy record of 177 to lift Afghanistan from an early wobble to 325-7 against England in a group match in Lahore on Wednesday. The Group B clash at the Gaddafi Stadium is effectively a knockout with the losing team out of the semi-final race of the 50-over tournament. Playing under the cloud of boycott calls from some British politicians over the plight of women in the Taliban-ruled nation, Afghanistan elected to bat in a bid to bounce back from their opening loss. But they soon slipped to 37-3 inside nine overs before Zadran pulled the innings together with a fourth-wicket partnership of 103 with skipper Hashmatullah Shahidi, who made 40. Zadran later added 111 for the sixth wicket with Mohammad Nabi, who hit 40 in 24 balls.

"Can't Replace Entire Team With U-19 Squad...": Pakistan Coach Drops Big Bombshell

Pakistan's interim head coach, Aaqib Javed, assured that the management will take steps in the best interest of the national team following their surprise early exit from the ongoing Champions Trophy. Backed as one of the hot favourites, the defending champions, Pakistan, crashed out of the Champions Trophy after surrendering two defeats on the trot. Pakistan's dreadful run started with an imposing six-wicket defeat against New Zealand in the tournament opener. It continued with a six-wicket hammering at the hands of arch-rival India in Dubai. A major cricket tournament returned to Pakistan for the first time in 29 years, but the hosts' journey will end on Thursday against Bangladesh in the group stage.

Champions Trophy: Jos Buttler's Subtle "Unique Tournament" Dig At Team India Over Dubai Advantage

Does playing at a single venue give Team India an advantage over 7 other teams in the ICC Champions Trophy? Many former cricketers and pundits have spoken of the 'undeniable advantage' that Rohit Sharma's side has enjoyed since the start of the tournament, thanks to a unique setup that sees them play all of their matches in Dubai. Other teams, in comparison, have had to travel to different venues, and adapt to different types of wickets. When England captain Jos Buttler was asked about the 'advantage' Team India has and his view on it, he gave a subtle response.
