English batter James Vince has expressed his displeasure over the No-Objection-Certificate (NOC) of the England Cricket Board (ECB). He believes that the ECB is giving preference to the Indian Premier League (IPL) over the Pakistan Super League (PSL) in it's NOC policy. 
Recently, the 33-year-old batter thought that it will be better to leave Domestic Cricket in order to play in the PSL, but now he said that the NOC policy of the ECB is not right. He also went on to make a massive statement that how PSL is better than the IPL.
<h2>'Giving preference to Pakistan Super League (PSL)is a better decision...'</h2>
In a conversation with ESPNCricinfo, James Vince said that apart from me, many other players have failed to understand the NOC policy of the England and Wales Cricket Board. We weren't able to understand why the IPL is getting preference over the Pakistan Super League in the policy of the England Cricket Board? He said that the entire matter is decided by the relationship of the BCCI and the Pakistan Cricket Board with the England Cricket Board, but I believe that giving preference to the Pakistan Super League over the IPL would have been a better decision, but it is not so.
<h3>In what way is the PSL better than the IPL? </h3>
The experienced English batter believes that the PSL is better because it last for less days in comparison to the cash-rich Indian T20 league. In such a situation, if the English players play in the Pakistani Super League, then their chances of missing International Cricket will be less too. 
Let us tell you that recently the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) released it's new NOC policy and in accordance to that policy, if the Three Lions are scheduled to play any international game, then an English player won't be allowed to participate in any t20 league, but if the IPL is taking place, then they can definitely continue to take part in the Indian T20 league.

SA20 2025: Sunrisers Eastern Cape finally found their footing in SA20 after three consecutive losses, claiming a commanding 58-run victory over Durban Super Giants at Kingsmead, Durban, on Friday, January 17.
The Sunrisers showcased a well-rounded performance with bat and ball to register their first win of the season. A solid batting effort, led by Tom Abell’s half-century and Marco Jansen’s late fireworks, set the foundation for a convincing result.
<h2>Sunrisers Eastern Cape vs Durban Super Giants Highlights</h2>
Electing to bat first on a slightly sluggish pitch, Sunrisers lost opener David Bedingham early to a sharp delivery from Naveen Ul Haq. However, Zak Crawley and Abell steadied the innings, crafting an important partnership. Crawley’s 38 off 29 balls provided momentum, while Abell anchored the innings with a composed 57 off 39 balls.
<img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_678b1dd2380e4.jpg" alt="">
Just as Sunrisers seemed to take control, spinner Noor Ahmad dismantled their middle order, claiming four crucial wickets, including the dangerous Crawley and Aiden Markram. However, Marco Jansen’s unbeaten 36 off 26 balls in the final overs propelled the Sunrisers to a competitive total of 165/5.
The Durban Super Giants, chasing 166, stumbled early in their innings. Bryce Parsons was run out after a brilliant direct hit from Markram, and Kane Williamson, who had looked promising in earlier matches, fell cheaply to Liam Dawson. Dawson’s tight spell of 2-18 kept the pressure on, as Durban reached only 54/3 at the halfway mark. The early wickets derailed their chase, leaving them needing a monumental effort to recover.
<img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_678b1dd51f862.jpg" alt="">
Despite efforts from Quinton de Kock and Wiaan Mulder to rebuild, the increasing required run rate proved too much to handle. Richard Gleeson and Ottneil Baartman cleaned up the middle and lower order, ensuring Durban’s batters couldn’t find the late surge they needed.
Gleeson’s double strike in the 17th over and Baartman’s tidy finish in the 19th wrapped up the innings at just 107, handing Sunrisers a much-needed win.
This victory not only ended the Sunrisers’ losing streak but also showcased their ability to perform under pressure. With their batting and bowling units clicking together, they’ll look to build on this performance and regain momentum in the tournament.
<h2>SA20 Points Table 2025</h2>
The SA20 points table is heating up as teams battle for dominance. Joburg Super Kings lead the pack with two wins from three matches and an impressive Net Run Rate (NRR) of +1.079, giving them 10 points. 
Despite two losses in four games, MI Cape Town holds second place with 9 points, courtesy of a stellar NRR of +1.630. Pretoria Capitals share the same points tally (9) but have played one game more, with two no-results slightly dampening their momentum. Paarl Royals sit in fourth with 8 points from three games, maintaining a steady start despite a negative NRR of -0.197.
In the lower half, Durban Super Giants and Sunrisers Eastern Cape are struggling to find consistency. Durban, with just one win in four matches and an NRR of -1.400, hold fifth place. 
Sunrisers finally broke their losing streak with a strong win, but they remain at the bottom of the table with 5 points and an NRR of -1.036 after four games. Both teams will need to improve their performances quickly to stay in playoff contention.

SA20 2025: Two Times Champions Sunrisers are having Problematic Season, Check Full SA20 Points Table

Fierce-Rivals India (IND) and England (ENG) are set to take on each other in a five-match T20 International series which will begin from the 22nd of January. The opening match of this series will be played at Kolkata's iconic Eden Gardens Cricket Stadium. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has already announced Team India's squad for the series and majority of the key players have picked in the team. 
Ahead of Champions Trophy 2025, the Indian team selectors will be keeping an eye on the performance of certain players, one of whom is Fast Bowling All-Rounder Hardik Pandya, who performed exceptionally well in the shortest format of the game in 2024. The 31-year-old has a phenomenal record versus England in T20 Internationals with both bat &amp; ball and he will get a big opportunity to create a massive record in the forthcoming five-match T20 International series.
<h2>Junior Pandya needs to take just three more wickets to break this record</h2>
At present, the record for the highest number of wickets taken by an Indian in T20 Internationals versus England is held by leg spinner Yuzvendra Chahal. He has dismissed 16 batters in 11 T20 matches versus the Three Lions at an average of 21.12. While Yuzi is not a part of the squad for the forthcoming series, Hardik is going to play and he has a chance to script history. 
In 15 T20i matches versus the Englishmen, the 31-year-old has 14 scalps next to his name with an average of 25.42. In such a situation, if Pandya manages to dismiss three more English batters in the upcoming five-match series, then he will become the highest wicket-taker for Team India in the shortest format of the game versus England.
<h2>Hardik Pandya's performance has been really good in T20 International matches</h2>
<img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_6783b2ad34cc4.jpg" alt="" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;">
Hardik is currently regarded as one of the best fast-bowling All Rounders in T20 Cricket. He has taken part in 109 T20i encounters so far and has amassed 1,700 runs at a decent average of 27.87, in which he has also hit four fifties at a really good strike-rate of 141.90.
With the ball, the Mumbai Indians skipper has dismissed a total of 89 batters with an economy rate of 8.17 and an average of 26.62. His best-figures with the ball currently stand at 4/16. 
The BCCI recently unveiled the Men in Blue's squad for the T20 International serias versus England and while Pandya is a part of the squad, he's no longer the vice-captain of the team and that responsibility has been handed over to Axar Patel.

Mumbai Indians and Royal Challengers Bengaluru, both with four slots to fill, took calculated approaches. With a purse of ₹2.65 crore, Mumbai focused on balancing experience and youth, while Bengaluru, with ₹3.25 crore, roped in all uncapped in their squad. Both teams seemed content with their picks, keeping a keen eye on value-for-money additions.
UP Warriorz and Delhi Capitals faced tighter budgets but navigated the auction smartly. UP Warriorz, with ₹3.9 crore and three slots, focused on securing impact players, ensuring quality over quantity. Delhi Capitals, starting with ₹2.5 crore for four slots, had to be highly selective, yet their strategy reflected a long-term vision. Each team now looks ahead to a competitive season, armed with refreshed squads.

WPL 2025 Auction: The conclusion of the WPL 2025 Auction, held in Bengaluru, has left us with complete information about the full squads of all five franchises. In this mini-auction, we saw an intense bidding war between the five teams for certain players, and we present you with the full squads of all the franchises after the Auction. 
A total of 19 slots were available, and the teams showed a clear focus on scouting fresh, uncapped Indian talent. This trend highlighted their forward-thinking approach, prioritizing long-term growth and development over immediate results. It wasn’t just about filling gaps; it was about building a future, investing in raw potential, and nurturing the stars of tomorrow.
Simran Shaikh, an uncapped player from Mumbai, stole the spotlight at the auction, becoming the most expensive player of the day. The Gujarat Giants went all out to secure her, showing their confidence in her potential. Meanwhile, West Indian all-rounder Deandra Dottin became the costliest overseas pick, with the Gujarat Giants signing her for a whopping ₹1.70 crore. Both moves underscored the team's bold strategy to blend emerging talent with proven international stars.
There were well-known capped names, that went unsold in the Auction, which we will cover in another post. Heather Knight, Lauren Bell, Sneh Rana, and Kim Garth are some names who went unsold.

Twenty20 (T20) Cricket

The India and Pakistan rivalry has been a great contest on the cricket field, as well as the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, marked by intense competition between the neighbouring nations and passionate fan engagement. It has often been seen that ever since the two teams have stopped playing bilaterals against eachother, these two are featured in every ICC tournament, which draw millions of spectators.  
The rivalry only intensifies, every time the two nations play against eachother, be it the Cricket World Cup or the ICC Champions Trophy. Such has been India’s domination in the ICC events, that they claimed successive wins in both the One-Day as well as the T20 World Cup. However, the Champions Trophy results have been contrasting with Pakistan’s infamous victory in the CT 2017 final against India, as well as their memorable 10-wickets win against India in the T20 World Cup of 2021.    
Clearly, the India vs Pakistan games are celebration of cricket to its peak, where every ball, every run, and every wicket carries the weightage of national pride.
<h2 dir="ltr">Here’s the strongest combined playing XI from the current squads of India and Pakistan for ICC Champions Trophy 2025:</h2>

<h3 dir="ltr">4: Shreyas Iyer</h3>
Indian middle-order batter <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shreyas_Iyer">Shreyas Iyer </a>has been a consistent player for the men in blue in the ODI format for a long time. Iyer has been a crucial asset to the India middle-order while delivering match-winning performances in the CWC 2023 as well as the Asia Cup. This is the reason he finds himself in place of Indian star wicket-keeper batter Rishabh Pant.  
As of now, Shreyas Iyer has put on a total of 2,421 runs with an average of 47.47, including 5 centuries and 18 fifties.

As of now, Hardik Pandya has scored 1769 runs and has taken 84 wickets for the Indian side in the 50-over format.
<h3 dir="ltr">7: Shadab Khan</h3>

As of now, Shaheen Shah Afridi has picked 119 wickets for the Pakistan Cricket Team with an economy of 5.49.
<h3 dir="ltr">10: Jasprit Bumrah</h3>
India’s most deadliest fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah is one of the most feared bowlers in the world currently. Bumrah is an exceptional pacer in all phases of the game, and he can deliver the maximum impact with the new ball as well as in the death overs. Bumrah has not played many ODIs owing to his frequent injuries and still remains doubtful for the Champions Trophy 2025. 
As of now, Jasprit Bumrah has taken a total of 149 wickets with an economy of 4.59 for the Indian side.
<h3 dir="ltr">11: Mohammed Shami</h3>

Delhi Capitals IPL 2025: The Delhi Capitals (DC) find themselves in a fascinating position ahead of the IPL 2025 season. The team is primed for success with a revamped squad and a renewed focus. However, one crucial question looms large: who should lead the team? The experienced KL Rahul, or the dependable all-rounder Axar Patel? Let’s break down the dynamics and possibilities that each captaincy option offers.
<h2>KL Rahul: The Veteran Leader</h2>
KL Rahul comes to Delhi with a rich IPL pedigree. Over the years, he has proven himself as a prolific run-scorer, amassing over 4,600 runs at a phenomenal average of 45-plus. His experience as captain of the Punjab Kings and Lucknow Super Giants has shown his ability to guide a team to playoff stages, which he achieved twice with LSG. Rahul’s batting consistency and calm demeanor make him an attractive choice to lead DC.
However, Rahul’s captaincy style has been criticized for being conservative, particularly regarding his strike rate and decision-making in crunch moments. This could be a concern for a team like the Delhi Capitals, which boasts explosive batting talent and needs a captain capable of effectively utilizing this firepower.
<h2>Axar Patel: The Fresh Perspective</h2>
On the other hand, Axar Patel represents a new-age leader with a wealth of experience in high-pressure situations. Axar has been DC's vice-captain and even stepped in as captain for a game in IPL 2024. His ability to contribute with both bat and ball makes him a key player, and his recent appointment as India’s T20 vice-captain adds to his leadership credentials.
<img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_679063ce6ad86.jpg" alt="">
Axar’s performances last season were nothing short of stellar, with 235 runs at a healthy strike rate and 11 wickets at an economy of 7.66. His all-around prowess, coupled with his understanding of the DC squad, makes him a strong contender for the captaincy.
Choosing between Rahul and Axar is essentially a choice between two distinct leadership styles. Rahul brings stability and experience, having captained for multiple IPL seasons. His presence can calm nerves during tense moments, which is invaluable for a team aiming for the playoffs. Axar, however, offers a dynamic and aggressive approach, potentially aligning better with DC’s young and energetic squad.
<h2>Delhi Capitals, the Squad</h2>
Delhi’s 2025 squad is packed with talent across the board. In the batting department, players like Harry Brook, Tristan Stubbs, and Jake Fraser-McGurk add explosive options, while KL Rahul himself remains a cornerstone at number three. The pace unit, led by Mitchell Starc and supported by T Natarajan and Mukesh Kumar, is formidable. However, the reliance on Axar and Kuldeep Yadav in the spin department highlights a potential area of concern.
<img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_679063cab56d5.jpg" alt="">
Delhi Capitals Squad: Harry Brook, Jake Fraser-McGurk, KL Rahul, Mitchell Starc, T Natarajan, Ashutosh Sharma, Mohit Sharma, Sameer Rizvi, Karun Nair, Faf du Plessis, Mukesh Kumar, Darshan Nalkande, Dushmantha Chameera, Vipraj Nigam, Ajay Mandal, Manwanth Kumar, Trupurana Vijay, Madhav Tiwari. DC retentions: Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Tristan Stubbs, Abishek Porel.
<h2>The Strategic Impact of Captaincy</h2>
Under Rahul, DC might adopt a more methodical approach, relying on his ability to anchor innings and guide young players like Abishek Porel and Fraser-McGurk. Axar’s leadership could inject a more fearless and intuitive style, encouraging aggressive cricket and leveraging DC’s bench strength, including veterans like Faf du Plessis.
One key consideration is how the captaincy might affect their individual performances. While Rahul’s form as an opener has been a consistent asset, Axar’s ability to contribute with both bat and ball is crucial to DC’s balance. Assigning the captaincy to Axar could be a gamble, but it might pay off if it inspires the team to rally around a fresh vision.
Ultimately, the choice of captain will reflect DC’s strategic priorities. If the franchise prioritizes experience and a steady hand, KL Rahul is the natural choice. However, if they aim for a bold and innovative approach, Axar Patel might be the leader to take them to new heights.
Either way, the Delhi Capitals possess the ingredients for a successful campaign, and the captaincy debate only adds to the intrigue surrounding their 2025 IPL journey. They are one of the strong contenders for the trophy this year.

KL Rahul or Axar Patel, who could be the Next Leader of Capitals?

Delhi Capitals faces a tough captaincy choice for IPL 2025: experienced KL Rahul or dynamic Axar Patel. Both offer distinct leadership styles, which will shape DC's approach with their star-studded squad and bold ambitions.

Delhi Capitals must choose between KL Rahul’s steady leadership or Axar Patel’s dynamic approach to maximize their IPL 2025 potential.

Can Delhi Capitals win IPL 2025? KL Rahul or Axar Patel, who could be the Next Leader of Capitals?
