The TATA IPL 2023 season will be underway in just a few weeks. The Kolkata Knight Riders are one team that was at its peak initially but whose performance has gone down a downward spiral in recent times. They have roped in Chandrakant Pandit as their head coach to replace Bazz McCullum. It will be great to see how this works. Also, the KKR management was the one to let go of the fewest players and make the most trades in the transfer market. The auction cost them only 8 crores of Indian rupees. Here is a quick preview of this squad:&nbsp;



<h2>Strengths of the Kolkata Knight Riders:&nbsp;</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="http://www.icccricketschedule.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Shreyas-Iyer-min-1024x640.jpg" alt="TATA IPL 2023" class="wp-image-91896"/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Shreyas with the other Indian batters will have to do the bulk of the scoring. IMG SRC: BCCI.</figcaption></figure>



The Indian batters are their strength. They have some of the top names in the business. Iyer, Rana, Venky, and Mandeep Singh too. These are all floaters and can bat anywhere in the batting order. Their next strengths are their spin bowling and their finisher. There is a better finisher in the world at the moment than Dre Russ. When he is on the song, he derails the opposition very easily. Their spin bowling department has the mysteries of Sunil Narine, Varun Chakravarthy, and Shakib Al Hasan with this experience. &nbsp;



<h2>Weakness of the Kolkata Knight Riders:&nbsp;</h2>



There is an evident weakness that they do not have an established foreign batter. The other teams have the likes of David Miller, Jos Butler, Moeen Ali, etc but the KKR management lacks it. They will have to rely on David Wiese and Rahmatullah Gurbaz to fire which is a very big flaw. These names aren?t established at this grand stage. The Indian pace battery is a point of concern too. &nbsp;



<h2>Opportunities for the Kolkata Knight Riders in TATA IPL 2023:&nbsp;</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="http://www.icccricketschedule.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Shardul-Thakur-India.jpg" alt="TATA IPL 2023" class="wp-image-78658"/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">He will have to spearhead the Indian bowling for KKR.

There are many opportunities in a team that relies on lesser-known names. The biggest opportunity is for Nitish Rana and Mandeep Singh to come back to the reckoning. The Indian cricket team is always looking for middle-order batters. A good season here or there can get them national call-ups. Another opportunity is for Shardul Thakur to be the spearhead of the pace bowling attack and make an impact in a team with not many superstars.&nbsp;



<h2>Threats for the Kolkata Knight Riders in TATA IPL 2023:&nbsp;</h2>



The major threat is the availability of Dre Russ during TATA IPL 2023 as he is a fragile commodity and is subject to injury. Due to his range-hitting abilities, he often gets his wrist injured. The other void is the death bowling. The possible death bowlers are Thakur, Russell, Lockie Ferguson, and Umesh Yadav. All of the above-mentioned names are not having a good time in the death overs. Lockie Ferguson leaked 50+ runs in the 3rd T20I against India.&nbsp;



<h2>Squad of the Kolkata Knight Riders:&nbsp;</h2>



Shreyas Iyer (c), Nitish Rana, Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Venkatesh Iyer, Andre Russell, Sunil Narine, Shardul Thakur, Lockie Ferguson, Umesh Yadav, Tim Southee, Harshit Rana, Varun Chakravarthy, Anukul Roy, Rinku Singh, N. Jagadeesan, Vaibhav Arora, Suyash Sharma, David Wiese, Kulwant Khejroliya, Litton Das, Mandeep Singh, Shakib Al Hasan.&nbsp;



Expected Playing XI:&nbsp;



Venkatesh Iyer, Litton Das, Shreyas Iyer, Nitish Rana, Shakib Al Hasan, Andre Russell, Rinku Singh, Sunil Narine, Shardul Thakur, Vaibhav Arora, Varun Chakravarthy. &nbsp;



<h2>Schedule of the Kolkata Knight Riders in TATA IPL 2023:&nbsp;</h2>



The schedule of the TATA IPL 2023 season is yet to be announced and hence the schedule of the KKR team is also to be announced. &nbsp;



<h2>Predictions for the Kolkata Knight Riders in TATA IPL 2023:&nbsp;</h2>



The KKR Team is expected to have a bad season. The season can be as bad as them finishing last or second last. They do not have the best teams and are relying on the promise of a few players. They could have improved their squad in the TATA IPL 2023 auction if they had a decent strategy in place. Shreyas Iyer is expected to be their highest run scorer. And Sunil Narine will be the highest wicket-taker. &nbsp;



<h2>X-Factor Players:&nbsp;</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="http://www.icccricketschedule.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/andrerussell-trivia-bday_d-1-1024x576.jpeg" alt="TATA IPL 2023" class="wp-image-86306"/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">IMG SRC: KKR</figcaption></figure>



Nitish Rana has had a good domestic season. He has not been picked by the BCCI selection panel but a good TATA IPL 2023 season can do wonders for him. He has always shown promise and has scored at regular intervals. But this could be the season of Nitish Rana. The other X-Factor has to be Dre Russ. One cannot easily forget his exploits against RCB in the TATA IPL 2019 season. He was hitting sixes for fun! &nbsp;

IPL 2023: Expected Playing XI &amp; Squad List of all 10 teams

ipl-2023-expected-playing-xi-squad-list-of-all-10-teams

The Kolkata Knight Riders are one such team that has been trying to get back on track. The KKR team has always had a line-up of star players. They were once home to Brendon McCullum, Chris Gayle, Dada Ganguly, and Ricky Ponting. In the prime of their performances, they had the likes of Yusuf Pathan and Sunil Narine. Similarly, they have three other key players in the TATA IPL 2023. These key players are the ones who have a lot of responsibility, but they also have the potential to deliver. Here is a look:&nbsp;



<h2>Shardul Thakur will be a Key Player for the Kolkata Knight Riders in TATA IPL 2023:&nbsp;</h2>



Shardul Thakur will be the spearhead of this pace attack. He will also have Lockie Ferguson to his aid. But this will be a season where Shardul will be expected to play as a bowling all-rounder. He will have a well-defined role with the bat as well. And considering his skill, he can easily bat at number 7 or number 8. He can be used as a pinch hitter too because he has a good range-hitting ability. &nbsp;



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img src="http://www.icccricketschedule.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Shardul-Thakur-1-1-1.jpg" alt="Kolkata Knight Riders" class="wp-image-97392" width="930" height="620"/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Shardul will have to deliver when it matters the most. IMG SRC: Delhi Capitals</figcaption></figure>



He might be given the role of death bowling. In that case, Thakur will have to bring up many of his tools from the arsenal. He will have to use the slower one and the cutters. His cutters are difficult to pick. And most importantly, Thakur has a knack for picking wickets. He may concede 40 runs in his 10 overs but he will also give you 3 wickets.&nbsp;



<h2>Andre Russell will be a Key Player for the Kolkata Knight Riders in TATA IPL 2023:&nbsp;</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="http://www.icccricketschedule.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Andre-Russell.jpg" alt="Andre Russell sustained shoulder injury during KKR vs RCB match, last night" class="wp-image-87869"/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Image: BCCI/IPL</figcaption></figure>



Its big shoulders of Andre need to cater to the requirements of the Kolkata Knight Riders. He is the best finisher cum all-rounder in business and KKR will be looking to make the optimum use of him. He is injured prone so his workload also needs to be managed. But on the days that Dre Russ starts middling the ball, the opposition can only pray. His strong zone is to hit the ball straight down the ground. The wide yorker is one way to deal with him. Another effective way is to bowl yorkers between his legs, something that KG Rabada and Mohammed Shami used in the season of 2019. Here is a look at the stats of Andre Russell:&nbsp;



<h2>Nitish Rana will be a Key Player:&nbsp;</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="http://www.icccricketschedule.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Nitish-Rana-min.jpg" alt="Kolkata Knight Riders" class="wp-image-96796"/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">IMG SRC: BCCI</figcaption></figure>



Nitish Rana?s name was supposed to be on the list. He will have to do most of the scoring. The top-order batting consists of Iyer, Rana, and the two openers. Nitish Rana may have to open in the absence of a strong opener. The KKR management does have Gurbaz and Venkatesh Iyer but does Gurbaz give you the required assurance? &nbsp;



He is coming out after a good domestic season. He was too good in the Vijay Hazare Trophy and was even expected to get a national call-up. But he got snubbed. This has a lot to do with luck but one good season of the TATA IPL can flip things in his favor. Also, he will be playing in the top order as the KKR management will be looking to utilize him to the fullest.&nbsp;

Kolkata Knight Riders, the two-time IPL champion team, has not been performing well in the last few years, and the team seems to be struggling continuously.

KKR had the lowest purse balance in the mini-auction, due to which the team could not bid for more players.



Kolkata's first match is with Punjab Kings in Mohali on 1st April from 3:30 PM.

IND vs ENG: Former Indian cricketer Ravichandran Ashwin has announced his playing XI for the first T20I against England. The match between the two teams is all set to take place on Wednesday (22nd January) at the iconic Eden Gardens in Kolkata.
India and England will be locking horns with each other in the five-match T20I series. Both teams have a mixed combination of seniors and youngsters in the team, and with the way they have played of late, it's fair to say that it will be an exciting series to watch. 
Coming to the first T20I, Ravichandran Ashwin backed Sanju Samson and Abhishek Sharma to open the innings for the team. The duo has been doing a decent job together as an opener and would be hoping to carry on the same form in the upcoming first match. 
Sanju Samson was at his exceptional best in the T20Is last year as he slammed three tons. While on the other hand, Abhishek Sharma hasn't been able to maintain consistency. Hence the series will be extremely important for him with the bat. 
At No.3, Ravichandran Ashwin picked Tilak Varma. The left-hander oozed his class with the bat in the last series against South Africa. He batted at No.3 and slammed two back-to-back centuries. Skipper Suryakumar Yadav, as per Ashwin, will bat at No.4.
Hardik Pandya, Nitish Kumar Reddy and Axar Patel are the three all-rounders picked by Ravichandran Ashwin in his Indian XI for the first IND vs ENG T20I. They are expected to play a major role with the bat and ball. 
Rinku Singh also has been picked by Ravichandran Ashwin in his Indian XI for the first IND vs ENG team. He will be taking the role of finisher while there was no place for Ravi Bishnoi, who hard has put a foot wrong in his T20I career. Varun Chakravarthy will be there as per Ashwin. 
Mohammed Shami and Arshdeep Singh are the two fast bowlers picked by Ravichandran Ashwin for the first IND vs ENG XI. Shami will be making his comeback to the team after a year, while Arshdeep will be keen to make an impact.

Former Pakistan cricketer Basit Ali talked about the delay in the squad of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 for the Pakistan team. He said that it might look like they are scared of announcing the team, but it seems that they don't know what to do. 
The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is around the corner and all the teams have named their squad for the tournament except the hosts Pakistan. The Men in Green are yet to announce the team even though the deadline of 12th January has already been surpassed by a long margin. 
India, Australia, England, South Africa, New Zealand, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan have all revealed their squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. This has made many speculate about why Pakistan isn't announcing their squad for the tournament, which is less than one month away. 
There have been several reports that Pakistan will be announcing their squad for the tournament soon. They are awaiting the fitness of a few players, and hence, they will soon be naming the team. Some reports also have revealed the players who will be playing, but an official announcement is yet to come. 
<h2>Pakistan kya darr gaya jo abhi tak team announce nahi ki? Nahi dara nahi hai. Samajh nahi aa rahi hai - Basit Ali </h2>
Amid all this, former Pakistan cricketer Basit Ali commented on the same, saying that no one knows what is happening. He speculated that they might be waiting for the fitness report on Saim Ayub. Speaking in a video posted on his YouTube channel, he explained: 
"Pakistan kya darr gaya jo abhi tak team announce nahi ki? Nahi dara nahi hai. Samajh nahi aa rahi hai -- karein to kya karein? (Is Pakistan scared to announce their squad? No, it isn't, just unsure what to do and what not). The biggest issue is whether Saim Ayub can return fit or not. It's still not clear." 
It remains to be seen when will Pakistan announce the squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The tournament is all set to take place from 19th February, with the final all set to be played on 9th March.

The International Cricket Council (ICC) has issued a warning to the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) over the jersey controversy ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. This comes after the Indian governing body refused to write 'Pakistan' on their kits for the tournament. 
The ICC Champions Trophy 2025, which is all set to be hosted by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), is scheduled to begin on 19th February. The preparations for the tournament are on, and the ICC and the PCB are taking every step possible to make sure that everything is right on track. 
However, a controversy recently erupted after BCCI refused to write Pakistan on their jersey for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. Notably, every participating nation, as per the ICC policy, has to write the name of the host nation below the logo of the tournament on their jersey. 
After BCCI refused to sport it, Pakistan Cricket Board officials made a strong statement, saying that BCCI is trying to use politics in every matter. He, however, mentioned that they are hopeful that ICC will support them and India will be asked to write the name of the jersey on their kits for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. 
<h2>It is the responsibility of every team to add the tournament logo to their jerseys - ICC official </h2>
Following this, BCCI also reacted, and the insider from the governing body said that since they are playing in Dubai, it isn't mandatory for them to wear the 'Pakistan written jersey'. The BCCI also stressed that they didn't write Pakistan's name on the podium of the Trophy tours as well. 
Amid all this, ICC has come up with a strong response for the BCCI. An ICC official mentioned that it is the responsibility of the host nation to add the tournament logo to their jersey. He stated: 
"It is the responsibility of every team to add the tournament logo to their jerseys. All teams are obligated to comply with this rule," an ICC official said as per A-Sports, as quoted by NDTV. 
Not only this, it is learned that the ICC also warned BCCI that they would be taking strict action if they didn't wear the Pakistan-written jersey during the tournament.

India fast bowler Arshdeep Singh is all set to achieve the most massive feat in the history of T20I cricket in the upcoming T20I series against England. The series between the teams will begin on 22nd January at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. 
Arshdeep Singh is just 5 wickets away from becoming the first Indian bowler to pick 100 wickets in the T20Is. With India set to play a five-match T20I series against England, it is expected that the pacer will be achieving the feat in the upcoming series. 
This comes as a remarkable feat because Arshdeep Singh made his debut during 2022, and to reach to 100 wickets within the span of around 2 years is staggering. The left-arm pacer has been nothing short of exceptional in the T20 format and is one of the most consistent performers with the ball for the team. 
Arshdeep Singh has been sensational with the new ball as well as in death. In the last few years, he has proved to be the biggest match-winner for India in T20Is. The pacer has won many games for the team on his own and will be keen to carry on the same form in the upcoming series. 
<h2>Arshdeep Singh was one of the major reasons behind India winning the T20 World Cup 2024</h2>
Arshdeep Singh was one of the major reasons behind India winning the T20 World Cup 2024.  He was the joint-highest wicket-taker in the series with 17 wickets to his name as he oozed his class with both new ball and old ball, helping India to end their title drought.
Arshdeep Singh will be extremely important for India in the upcoming T20I series against England. The pacer will be key for the team alongside Mohammed Shami, who will be making his comeback to the team after a long injury break. The duo will be leading the attack for the team. 
With the kind of performances that he has displayed, Arshdeep Singh is likely to play all five games in the series. It won't be a surprise if he gets to 100 wickets in the first two games of the series against England.

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">1: Rohit Sharma (C)</h3>

<h3 dir="ltr">4: Shreyas Iyer</h3>

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">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.
