Pakistan Volleyball Federation on Sunday said India have withdrawn their contingent from the next month's Central Asian Volleyball in Islamabad. PVF official Abdul Ahad said India had confirmed sending a 30-member squad, including 22 players for the championship starting May 28 at the Jinnah complex.
Undeterred by a third home defeat, spin all-rounder Vipraj Nigam said Delhi Capitals are determined to bounce back, not just to reach the playoffs but to secure a top-two finish in the IPL standings. DC suffered a 14-run loss to Kolkata Knight Riders after falling short in their chase of 205, and Nigam admitted a few shot selection errors cost them the match on Tuesday. "There are some decisions that we take at the last moment, because of which the game gets messed up sometimes here and there. But we are still in the top four, and we have five more games left, in which we will try to come back and finish in the top two," Nigam told reporters.
India's 'Hitman' Rohit Sharma, a modern-day white-ball legend, turned 38 on Wednesday. Since making his debut for the Indian team in Belfast on June 23, 2007, he has toppled several records across formats, establishing his legacy and serving as a beacon of inspiration for the next generation. Relaxed and easy on the eye, that's how Rohit has owned all the shots from the cricket book and made some of his own by adding his twist to them. Rohit laboured enough and exuded patience and persistence to become a colossus in the white-ball format.
Amid a tense standoff between India and Pakistan after the Pahalgam terror attack, a war of words has erupted on social media between retired cricketers Shikhar Dhawan and Shahid Afridi. The former Pakistan captain's controversial comments over the Pahalgam attack prompted a sharp reply from Dhawan. As the former India opener reminded Shahid Afridi of the past India-Pakistan confrontations, including the Kargil war, the ex-cricketer from across the border gave a bizarre response. Even former Pakistan spinner Danish Kaneria doubled down on Afridi, calling him a 'hypocrite'.
England are reportedly considering former New Zealand pacer Tim Southee as their fast-bowling consultant ahead of a home summer season that includes a marquee five-Test series against India. The 36-year-old is one of the contenders to replace veteran pacer James Anderson, who took up the role after retiring from Test cricket last year but is unavailable this summer due to playing commitments with county side Lancashire. Southee had called time on his red-ball career in December, finishing with 391 Test wickets, second only to Sir Richard Hadlee on 431.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru star Phil Salt claimed that he is not friends with Virat Kohli before making a hilarious U-turn. Salt, who was bought for Rs 11.5 crore in the mega auction, was asked by Mr Nags about his dynamic with Virat in the team and he replied that they are just colleagues. However, later in the interview posted by RCB on their official social media handles, Salt said that he and Virat are friends. The England international went on to say that everyone he plays cricket with is his friend.
Yuzvendra Chahal was trolled brutally by his Punjab Kings teammates after showing off the bat that he got from MS Dhoni ahead of their match against Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2025. Chahal, who made his ODI debut under Dhoni's captaincy, approached the CSK captain ahead of the match and was gifted one of his bats. Chahal showed off the bat to Glenn Maxwell in the PBKS dressing room who was quickly commented that he has no use for the bat as he is subbed out in every game for the Impact Player to come in. "What are you going to do with it? You get subbed out in every game". PBKS youngster Priyansh Arya also joined in on the trolling and said that some kid in Haryana will surely take it away from Chahal. "Some kid in Haryana is going to take this bat for sure," joked Priyansh.
The Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) secured a morale-boosting victory against the Delhi Capitals (DC) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 campaign on Tuesday. Delhi, one of the most consistent sides this season, has now lost three of their last five matches, showing signs of nerves in the decisive stage of the campaign. DC's defeat against KKR creates a lot of room for permutations and combinations to decide which four teams will seal a spot in the playoffs. Had the result gone the other way, the teams in the bottom half of the points table would've received a significant blow.
