Pakistan Face Brutal Criticism, Asked To Leave Champions Trophy And Join Series With Zimbabwe

Pakistan got off to a forgettable start in their Champions Trophy 2025 campaign as they lost against New Zealand by 60 runs. Opting to bowl first, Pakistan gave away 320 runs after Will Young and Tom Latham smashed centuries. Later, the hosts got bundled out for 260 as their batters completely failed to put up a strong fight against the Kiwis. For New Zealand, skipper Mitchell Santner and William O'Rourke scalped three wickets each. After this loss, former Pakistan wicketkeeper Kamran Akmal slammed Mohammad Rizwan and co for their poor performance.

Watch: Rohit Sharma's Cheeky Reaction After Ban Star, Whom He Dropped, Misses KL Rahul's Catch

The India vs Bangladesh Champions Trophy 2025 clash had one moment which will be talked about for a long time. It was not the eighth ODI ton by Shubman Gill or the five-wicket haul by Mohammed Shami that helped India defeat Bangladesh by six wickets, it was a dropped catch by Rohit Sharma. Axar Patel was on a hat-trick in the ninth over of the Bangladesh innings, when Rohit dropped Jaker Ali. Rohit was angry with himself and the whole side was stunned. However, later, Rohit had a redemption of sorts when Jaker Ali dropped KL Rahul at a crucial juncture with Bangladesh bowlers choking Indie for runs.

"Coach Has To...": Anil Kumble's Blunt Message To Gautam Gambhir Over 'Legacy Players'

The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 began on a promising note for the Indian team, with a comprehensive victory against Bangladesh in the opener on Thursday. Skipper Rohit Sharma and opening batter Shubman Gill got the team off to a flying start at the top but No. 3 batter Virat Kohli didn't look his usual self. Kohli and Rohit's form has been a concern for the team management for a long time. While the skipper scored a 36-ball 41, Virat could only contribute 22 runs off 38 balls. Though India won the match, the team's former coach Anil Kumble sent a straightforward message to Gautam Gambhir, the current head coach, about the transition from 'legacy players'.

"I Was Joking": Wasim Akram Takes Back Advice, Mocks Babar Azam's Slow Knock With Hilarious Joke

Babar Azam drew a lot of criticism for the pace of his innings as Pakistan slumped to a 60-run defeat against New Zealand in their opening game of Champions Trophy 2025.

Babar - who ultimately made 64 off 90 balls - was heavily criticised by experts and fans alike for his slow knock. Legendary former Pakistan cricketer Wasim Akram made a hilarious joke to mock Babar's innings.

Asked About Being Trolled Over His Religion, Mohammed Shami Gives Brilliant Reply

India's pace spearhead Mohammed Shami on Thursday said he came into the Champions Trophy with an eye on taking regular wickets after he returned to international cricket from a career-threatening injury. Shami claimed impressive figures of 5-53 to set up India's six-wicket win over Bangladesh in their opening match of the 50-over tournament in Dubai. The 34-year-old stepped up in the absence of fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah, who was forced to miss the event due to a back injury. Shami himself only returned to competitive cricket late last year after a string of injuries including ankle, heel and knee which delayed his recovery since his last match in the 2023 ODI World Cup final.

"No Intention To Improve": Shoaib Akhtar Blasts Babar Azam For Sluggish Knock In Champions Trophy Opener

Former Pakistan cricketer Shoaib Akhtar criticised star batter Babar Azam for his slow and conservative knock against New Zealand in the ICC Champions Trophy opener, saying that the batter has "no intention to improve". Babar's sluggish approach in ODIs made headlines as he made a 90-ball 64 against NZ while chasing 321 in the Champions Trophy opener. His strike rate was extremely underwhelming at 71.11, leaving Pakistan 60 runs short of a win and their net run rate slipped to -1.20. Their next match against arch-rivals India on Sunday has become a virtual knockout.
