<p><strong>IND vs ENG Live:</strong> The last match of the ongoing five-match Test series against India and England is being played at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamshala. English captain Ben Stokes won the toss and decided to bat first. But Indian bowler Kuldeep Yadav ruined this plan for England. Kuldeep is currently in great form and has made a record in his name that no one has achieved till now in the history of cricket.</p>



<p>By taking five wickets in the Dharamsala Test against England, Kuldeep Yadav has become the first bowler to take the fastest 50 wickets in the fewest number of balls. He has completed 50 wickets by throwing 1871 balls. At the time of writing this article, he had become the first bowler to take 51 wickets in 21 innings. Kuldeep has also achieved the feat of taking five or more wickets 4 times in Tests.</p>



<p>If we look at the list of Indian Test bowlers with the most wickets, Kuldeep is ranked 43rd. Anil Kumble is on top in this regard. Kumble took 619 wickets across 132 test matches. Ravichandran Ashwin is at number two. Ashwin has taken 507 wickets in 100 matches thus far. Kapil Dev, the Indian World Cup-winning captain, is ranked third. He has 434 wickets from 131 matches.</p>

<p>The Indian team's dominance continues in the Dharamsala Test as well. Till the tea break, a total of 55 overs have been played, in which England has scored 194 runs at the loss of eight wickets. At the crease, wicketkeeper bowler Ben Foakes is batting after scoring eight runs in 33 balls, while Shoaib Bashir is batting after scoring five runs in 16 balls.</p>



<p>Ravichandran Ashwin, playing his 100th Test match, has taken two wickets for 39 runs in 10 overs, while Ravindra Jadeja has also taken one wicket for 17 runs in 10 overs. Now it will be interesting to see how quickly the Indian team comes to bat after all-out England.</p>

<p>Everyone is waiting for the announcement of the Indian squad for the upcoming ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The last date to announce the provisional squad is January 12, and we might see some surprise calls for the Indian team.</p>
<p>There is an uncertainty about the fitness of Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami, and the form of some key players is also in question. That might make the Ajit Agarkar-led selection committee bring in some new faces to the squad. India played the last ODI in August 2024, which was six months back. Then, we will have an ODI series coming up against England.</p>
<p>However, there are chances that, on the basis of performances in Tests and T20Is, some players might get an ODI cap. Hence, we might see some playing their first ODI in the coming event itself. Below, we will talk about three such Indian stars who can make their ODI debut in the <a href="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/admin/edit-post/ICC%20Champions%20Trophy%202025%20to%20shift%20from%20Pakistan%20to%20UAE%20completely?%20Here's%20why">ICC Champions Trophy 2025</a>.</p>
<h2>Three Indian Stars who can to make their ODI debut in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025</h2>
<p><strong>3. Varun Chakravarthy</strong></p>
<p>After not getting a chance for almost three years, Varun Chakravarthy made his comeback in the Indian team in the T20Is. He did pretty well and took 17 wickets in seven matches since his return. He brings his mystery spin to the table, which can be vital on the pitches in Dubai. Some media reports indicate that he can be part of the Indian squad because there is not clarity over Kuldeep Yadav's fitness. Notably, Varun has not played ODIs for India, and if selected, he can make his ODI debut in the <a href="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/admin/edit-post/3%20Indian%20Stars%20who%20might%20be%20dropped%20from%20India's%20squad%20for%20the%20ICC%20Champions%20Trophy%202025">ICC Champions Trophy 2025.</a></p>
<p><strong>2. Nitish Kumar Reddy</strong></p>
<p>The last six months have been career-changing for the 22-year-old all-rounder. Nitish Kumar Reddy made his T20I and Test debuts for India and impressed everyone in both formats. His all-round skills can be vital for India if he plays alongside Hardik Pandya. That opens many options for the team. He is likely to be in the upcoming ICC Champions Trophy 2025 squad, and there are huge chances that he will be playing his first ODI for India during the mega event.</p>
<p><strong>1. Yashasvi Jaiswal</strong></p>
<p>The Indian management is keen to bring Yashavi Jaiswal to the squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. He has been a prolific scorer for Idnai in 2024. But he has yet to make his debut for ODI because of the packed top order. Jasiwal has already shown that he has the game to achieve success at this level. Already, there have been talks about his inclusion as a backup opener. Hence, we might see him soon donning an Indian ODI jersey.</p>

<p></p>

India might pick a few players for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 who have not played ODIs until now.

Nitish Kumar Reddy is among the front-runners to get a place in the Indian squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. He had good performances for India in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25.

<p>The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is the next designation of all top teams and their fans. The tournament is all set to kick off in Pakistan on February 19. India are part of Group A, which also has Pakistan, New Zealand, and Bangladesh. Team India will play their first match on February 20 against Bangladesh in Dubai.</p>
<p>The provisional squad for the ICC event is likely to be announced on or before January 12. There are a number of names that have been considered, and some players might get a nod in the squad. However, there will be some unlucky players who will not be able to make the cut. In this article, we will talk about three big names who might not be picked for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.</p>
<h2>Three big stars who might be dropped from rh ICC Champions Trophy 2025 squad </h2>
<p><strong>3. Arshdeep Singh</strong> </p>
<p>Indian fans can't forget the performance that Arshdeep Singh delivered in the T20 World Cup 2024. He finished the tournament as the leading wicket-taker and helped India win the long-awaited ICC title. Though Arshdeep has only played 8 ODIs so far. But with his ability to swing the new ball and then contain batters in the end, it makes him a complete white-ball bowler. However, India will already have the option of Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, Mohammed Shami, and Hardik Pandya in a 15-member squad.</p>
<p><strong>2. Sanju Samson</strong> </p>
<p>Sanju Samson finished 2024 as India's top scorer in T20Is. He slammed three centuries in just 12 innings and is someone who can bat anywhere and also is a keeper. But despite his batting form, Samson might not be able to make the cut. India will go with Rishabh Pant and KL Rahul as wicketkeepers, and the top order is already packed. Hence, Samson might not be able to make it into the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 squad.</p>
<p><strong>1. Suryakumar Yadav</strong> </p>
<p>India's T20I captain and one of the key members of the team in the shortest format has been in and out of the ODI squad. He played an important role in India winning the T20 World Cup 2024. He is also in good form as compared to some other Indian seniors. But he won't get a chance as India might back Rahul, Pant, and Shreyas Iyer in the middle order.</p>

3 Indian Stars who might be dropped from India's squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025

3-indian-stars-who-might-be-dropped-from-india-s-squad-for-the-icc-champions-trophy-2025

<p><strong>ICC Champions Trophy 2025: </strong>As the days go by, the buzz around speculations and predictions continues to intensify. For Team India, squad predictions have become a hot topic of discussion, sparking debates everywhere—from cricket fanatics on social media to casual conversations on the streets. Amid this growing excitement, one key question stands out: who will don the wicketkeeping gloves for India in the highly anticipated ICC Champions Trophy 2025?</p>
<p>With numerous cricket experts and pundits making bold predictions about India's squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, a common thread runs through most discussions: the inclusion of KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant, and Sanju Samson.</p>
<p>However, opinions are far from unanimous. While some former cricketers have opted to leave Rishabh Pant out of their squads, others argue for his inclusion at the expense of Sanju Samson, fueling a heated debate among fans and analysts alike. Let's discuss all three options one by one:</p>
<h2><strong>KL Rahul Frontrunner to Keep Wickets?</strong></h2>
<p><strong><img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_677fef7181149.jpg" alt=""></strong></p>
<p><strong>KL Rahul </strong>has made a compelling case to be India’s primary wicketkeeping option in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. Former India batting coach Sanjay Bangar praised Rahul’s ability to deliver consistently under pressure, highlighting his crucial contributions at No. 5 and his knack for scoring vital runs when the team needed them most.</p>
<p>Rahul’s reliability behind the stumps was further cemented by his record-breaking performance in the 2023 ODI World Cup. With 17 dismissals, including 16 catches and one stumping, he surpassed Rahul Dravid’s 2003 record for the most dismissals by an Indian wicketkeeper in a single World Cup edition.</p>
<p>These achievements underscore his dual efficiency with both the gloves and the bat, solidifying his place as a frontrunner for the role in high-stakes tournaments like the Champions Trophy.</p>
<h2><strong>Is Rishabh Pant Ready for ODI Format?</strong></h2>
<p><strong><img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_677ff4b385bc4.jpg" alt=""></strong></p>
<p><strong>Rishabh Pant </strong>has proven his mettle in the Test format, but his performances in white-ball cricket have been inconsistent, as highlighted by his ODI stats: 871 runs in 31 matches at an average of 33.50 and a strike rate of 106.21. Despite his potential, these numbers suggest he lacks the maturity required for high-pressure limited-overs cricket.</p>
<p>However, Pant’s wicketkeeping skills set him apart. Among the three contenders, he is the most agile and reliable behind the stumps, with quick reflexes, sharp accuracy, and adaptability to various conditions. While his batting in ODIs needs improvement, his exceptional glove work makes him a strong contender for a spot in the squad.</p>
<h2><strong>Can Sanju's Form Secure Him a Spot?</strong></h2>
<p><strong><img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_677ff4b73d5fc.jpg" alt=""></strong></p>
<p>Sanju Samson’s impressive ODI stats—510 runs in 16 matches at an average of 56.66 and a strike rate of 99.60—underscore his potential as a reliable wicketkeeper-batter. His ability to capitalize on limited opportunities, including a century and three fifties, makes him a strong contender for the squad.</p>
<p>Sanjay Bangar also stated, “You have to give a place to Sanju Samson because he averages above 50 in ODI cricket. Add to that, he is a man in form as well.”</p>
<p>When compared to Rishabh Pant, Samson’s batting stats are significantly better, highlighting his consistency in white-ball cricket. Moreover, Samson’s wicketkeeping skills are nearly on par with Pant’s, making him a well-rounded option. His current form further solidifies his chances of overtaking Pant in the race for the role.</p>
<h2><strong> Who Will Keep Wickets?</strong></h2>
<p>KL Rahul, with his record-breaking wicketkeeping performance in the 2023 ODI World Cup and consistent contributions as a batter, emerges as the frontrunner for India’s primary wicketkeeper role. Sanju Samson, backed by Sanjay Bangar for his stellar ODI average of 56.66 and solid form, is a strong contender for the backup spot.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, Rishabh Pant’s exceptional wicketkeeping skills and proven Test success make him a valuable asset, though his inconsistent white-ball batting leaves room for improvement. Together, these options reflect India’s enviable depth in the wicketkeeping department heading into the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.<strong><br></strong></p>
<p>The weight is on KL Rahul to be the first-choice wicketkeeper. Shreyas Iyer is fit and actively playing cricket to provide a good balance in the team and in his presence, KL Rahul would be the best option. Sanju Samson would be a better batter and wicketkeeper in the backup if we take Stats into account. Rishabh Pant might have to wait for a while in the white ball cricket.</p>

With KL Rahul’s consistency, Sanju Samson’s form, and Rishabh Pant’s agility, who should India trust as their wicketkeeper in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025? The race is closer than ever.

India’s wicketkeeping dilemma: Rahul’s reliability, Samson’s form, or Pant’s agility? A tough decision awaits ahead of the Champions Trophy.

Who Will Keep Wickets for India in ICC Champions Trophy 2025: Sanju Samson, Rishabh Pant, or KL Rahul?

<p>The last few months have been below par for Team India in terms of performances. They didn't enjoy much time on the field. But everything can change as the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is coming up, and India will be one of the favorites teams entering the tournament.</p>
<p>But can they do it without Jasprit Bumrah? Well, not many will give the Indian cricket team a chance if Bumrah doesn't take part in the upcoming event. That is the reason Rohit Sharma and his men are currently in big confusion over Bumrah's participation.</p>
<p>Notably, the pacer didn't bowl in the final innings of the fifth test at the SCG due to a fitness issue. Though it wasn't serious and we might see the name of Jasprit Bumrah in the Indian squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, it will come with one condition.</p>
<h2>Will Jasprit Bumrah be ready for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025?</h2>
<p>Notably, the last date to submit the provision squad for all teams is January 12. There is no doubt Bumrah will be part of the squad, but his participation in the tournament will be subject to his fitness. As reported by Hindustan Times, the pacer will only step on the field when he feels pain-free.</p>
<p>The report indicates that the pacer has reached New Zealand to consult Dr. Rowan Schouten, who is an orthopedic surgeon. He was the one that treated Bumrah back in 2023, when he suffered from a back injury. The report quoted, "<strong>The surgeon is in touch with BCCI’s medical team, and the selectors are expected to be informed.”</strong></p>
<p>India are all set to host England for five T20Is and three ODIs before the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The tour will begin on January 22 and will conclude on February 12, a week before India will play their first game of the Champions Trophy 2025. India will start their campaign with a game against Bangladesh on February 20 in Dubai.</p>
<p>India are already struggling with the bad form of the batters. Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma are going through rough patches. Adding to that, there is no clarity over Mohammed Shami's return. The pacer has been playing at the domestic level, but he is not getting clearance from the NCA to play for India. And if Bumrah doesn't play, India will be under immense pressure.</p>

Jasprit Bumrah didn't bowl in the second innings of the fifth test against Australia at the SCG. He will be rested for the England series ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.
