With the deadline to finalise the ICC Champions Trophy squad coming, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is in a race against time to finalise their plans for Bumrah.

'Felt Like Pakistan Was Away Team': Ex-PCB Chairman's Worrying Statement Ahead Of Champions Trophy

Former PCB chairman Ramiz Raja launched a scathing tirade on Pakistan pacers for their woeful display in the ODI tri-nation opener against New Zealand in Lahore which the 'Men in Green' lost by 78 runs. On Saturday, Pakistan and New Zealand had the opportunity to decode each other's tactics and depth before squaring off in the Champions Trophy opener on February 19. Batting first New Zealand posted a mammoth 330/6 and then sealed a comfortable 78-run victory against Pakistan. After an imposing start in the powerplay, Pakistan's star pace duo Shaheen Afridi and Naseem Shah were pummelled towards the end. Shaheen picked three wickets but leaked 88 runs in his 10-over spell. On the other hand, Naseem went wicketless and spilt 70 runs in 10 overs.

Trouble In Pakistan? PCB Chief Contradicts Captain Mohammad Rizwan Over Contentious Champions Trophy Selections

Pakistan Cricket Board chairman Mohsin Naqvi said that the selection committee "will review" the national squad picked for the Champions Trophy even as he defended the controversial selections of batter Khushdil Shah and all-rounder Faheem Ashraf. The PCB top boss statement was in complete contradiction to skipper Mohammed Rizwan's assertion that no change is warranted in the 15-member squad. Every cricket board has time till February 12 to make any changes to their provisional squads picked for the ICC event which will be held in Pakistan and United Arab Emirates. “The selectors have the right to review any squad they announce. Khushdil Shah and Faheem Ashraf have been included in the squad with the right intentions,” he replied to a question.

Kapil Dev's Blunt Message To Rohit Sharma Ahead Of Champions Trophy: "If Captain's Form Is Poor, Team Will..."

Rohit Sharma's last 10 innings in international cricket (across formats) read - 2, 3, 9, 10, 3, 6, 18, 11, 0, 8. Merely by looking at the scores one can deduce that something is not right with the Indian cricket team captain, once one of the most prolific batters in the world. Forget a century, the last time Rohit was able to cross the 50-run mark was in October 2024. While on-field performance has been poor, Rohit has been reportedly battling off-fiield issues too. There have been reports of rift in the Indian dressing room with multiple reports claiming that we might be seeing the last few months of Rohit Sharma in international cricket if things don't improve drastically.

"India, Pakistan And...": Shoaib Akhtar Does Not Name Australia, Throws In Wildcard For Champions Trophy Semis

The Champions Trophy 2025 will be a tightly-fought tournament, with only eight sides in the whole competition and groups of four teams each.

Ahead of the tournament, former Pakistan pacer Shoaib Akhtar has named the sides that he believes could very well make the semi-finals. However, Akhtar surprisingly did not specifically mention current world champions Australia.
