India A vs Pakistan A LIVE Telecast: India A will kickstart the ACC Emerging Teams Asia Cup with a blockbuster clash against Pakistan A. India's squad for the tournament is filled with several young stars who have shone in the IPL before. Led by Tilak Varma, the likes of Abhishek Sharma, Ayush Badoni and Rahul Chahar are also in the squad. India will also face Oman and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in Group B. Prabhsimran Singh or Anuj Rawat are expected to keep wickets.
Former India cricketer-turned-pundit Sanjay Manjrekar singled out India batter Sarfaraz Khan for special praise, following Day 3 of the first Test between India and New Zealand. Sarfaraz scored his half-century in more than a run-a-ball and then ended the day unbeaten on 70 off 78 balls. Manjrekar reserved high praise for him, comparing him to legendary Pakistani batter Javed Miandad. Manjrekar hailed Sarfaraz's approach in batting, be it to play offensively or defensively, and likened him to a '2024 version of Javed Miandad'.
Pakistan won a Test on home soil after a gap of more three years on Friday, beating England by 152 runs in the second match in Multan to level the three-game series 1-1. Pakistan's new selection committee made some unexpected changes to the squad for the last two Tests, dropping the likes of star batter Babar Azam and pacer Shaheen Afridi. The decision received mixed response from fans of Pakistan cricket. While some suggested that dropping out-of-form batter Babar was a mistake, others hailed the new selection committee for making the right call.
Seasoned wicketkeeper-batter Mohammad Rizwan has emerged as a front runner to become Pakistan team's captain in the white-ball formats when the PCB announces the touring squad for series in Australia, Zimbabwe and South Africa. The Pakistani selectors have held meetings with the PCB Chairman Mohsin Naqvi and also consulted white-ball head coach, Gary Kirsten in the last two days.
There has been a lot of chatter surrounding India's participation in the Champions Trophy 2025 which is scheduled to take place in Pakistan. India and Pakistan have not played a bilateral series in over a decade due to political tensions and the Indian government has maintained a hard stance that the cricket team will not travel to Pakistan. However, according to a Cricbuzz report, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has come up with a somewhat strange solution to the problem. The report claimed that PCB have written to BCCI "offering assistance should the Indian team prefer to return to India - either to Chandigarh or New Delhi - after each game to avoid staying in Pakistan due to security concerns".
England suffered defeat to Pakistan by a mammoth 152 runs in the second Test in Multan, failing to chase down a target of 297. But despite the middle order failing, England's captain Ben Stokes -- returning from injury -- held strong with 37 at one end, at a rate of more than run-a-ball. However, his knock came to a rather hilarious end, as not only did he lose his wicket, but also flung his bat out of control into the air as he attempted the shot.
Pakistan Test captain Shan Masood praised Kamran Ghulam for rising to the challenge of replacing Babar Azam amid the backlash from fans. Ghulam was one of the names that popped up when Pakistan's historic victory was discussed across the globe. He certainly had his say in ending Pakistan's first Test win at home since February 2021. But the journey wasn't easy for him.
