<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Dream11 Must Pick Players</h3>



<ol>
<li>Jason Roy: The English opener began his PSL campaign with a powerful innings of 75 runs in 48 balls, featuring four fours and two sixes, against Peshawar Zalmi at the Gaddafi Stadium, the same venue for the Qalandars vs. Gladiators match. He is an essential player to consider, particularly when he is in aggressive form. </li>



<li>Saud Shakeel: Jason Roy's opening partner, showcased his excellent form by scoring 74 runs off 47 balls, including six fours and four sixes, with a strike rate of 157.45 against the Peshawar-based team, which makes him an automatic choice for your Dream 11 team. </li>



<li>Rassie Van Der Dussen: South Africa batter Rassie Van Der Dussen was Lahore?s lone warrior against Islamabad United with his knock of 71 runs in 41 balls. Even though he wasn?t able to make his team win, his knock was a pretty crucial one, and he has an excellent record on the Pakistani flat pitches, which makes the 35-year-old a good batting choice for your Dream 11 team. </li>
</ol>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Players to avoid</h3>



<ol>
<li>Mohammad Wasim Jr: The All - Rounder failed to contribute with the bat against Peshawar, and with the ball, he gave away 49 runs in four overs and picked up just a single wicket. He is not in good form, and your Dream 11 team would be better off without him. </li>



<li>David Wiese: Wiese gave away 24 runs in two overs in the match between Lahore Qalandars and Islamabad United, and he wasn?t able to do anything special with the bat. So you can avoid picking him and go for other players. </li>
</ol>

Reigning champions Lahore Qalandars and Quetta Gladiators are all set to lock horns against each other in the fourth game of PSL 2024. The match will be played today at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore, and the match between the two teams will start at 19:30 pm IST.



The Shaheen Shah Afridi-led Qalandars suffered a defeat in their opening encounter against Islamabad United, while the Gladiators will be looking to win their second game after a comfortable victory against Babar Azam?s Peshawar Zalmi by a margin of 16 runs. The odds favour the Quetta Gladiators, but the squad of Lahore Qalandars has a formidable track record and momentum, reminiscent of champions, creating an atmosphere of uncertainty.



Shaheen Shah Afridi, who recently replaced Babar Azam as the skipper of the Pakistani Cricket Team during the tour of New Zealand, performed poorly against Islamabad United with the ball as he went wicketless in his four overs and gave away 31 runs. Zaman Khan (1-33) and Salman Fayyaz (1-23) were the only wicket takers for the Qalandars against Islamabad, as Haris Rauf (0-38), Jahandad Khan (0-39), and David Wiese (0-24) failed to get their names among the wickets. The batting unit of the Shaheen Shah Afridi-led team struggled as well, with Rassie Van Der Dussen (71 runs in 41 balls) and Sahibzada Farhan (57 runs in 36 balls) being the exceptions.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/02/Quetta-Gladiators-1-1.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-126763" /></figure>



Talking about the Quetta Gladiators, the opening duo of Saud Shakeen (74 runs in 47 balls) and Jason Roy (75 runs in 48 balls) were the best performers for the Quetta based team with the bat, as the duo helped their team post a huge total of 206 runs on the board. In reply, Babar Azam (68 runs in 42 balls) and Saim Ayub (42 runs in 26 balls) showed some retaliation with their fighting knocks, but following their dismissals, no other Peshawar Zalmi batter was able to capitalize on the start given by the openers, and eventually, Peshawar fell short by 16 runs.

The fixture began with a blitz opening knock of Sahibzada Farhan, who scored 62 runs in just 43 deliveries for Lahore Qalandars.

Later in the innings, Farhan was complemented by Jahandad Khan, who blew Quetta with his fiery knock. Jahandad played a tormenting knock of 45 runs in a mere 17 deliveries with the help of four sixes and three fours.



The total batting efforts of Lahore Qalandars aided the side post 187 runs total in the loss of 7 wickets against Quetta Gladiators. Meanwhile, Akeal Hosein and Mohammed Hasnain remained the pick of the bowlers as they scalped two wickets each in the first innings.



Opener Jason Roy and Saud Shakeel started off the proceedings quite nicely and to some extent, they decided the fate of the fixture in the first six overs. The two openers added runs with a run-rate of over 10 runs per over before the dismissal of Saud Shakeel, who scored 40 runs in just 23 deliveries. 



While the openers were thought to be the biggest threat for Lahore Qalandars, young Khawaja Nafay came in as a surprise for them. Nafay tore apart the opposition bowling unit as he played a match-winning knock of 60 runs in 31 deliveries. The batter remained unbeaten throughout the innings and took his side home, despite a few hiccups.



Rilee Rossouw-led Quetta Gladiators managed to chase the 187 runs total with 5 balls to spare and won their second game of the ongoing PSL 2024.

Australia has suffered a massive blow ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. As per the reports in ESPNCricinfo, it is learned that captain Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood are all set to be ruled out of the tournament, which will begin on 19th February. 
Pat Cummins suffered an ankle injury during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 and missed the ongoing Test tour to injury due to the same and also the birth of his second child. The fast bowler since then has been out of action and hasn't resumed any kind of bowling. 
Pat Cummins hasn't gained his full fitness and it is highly likely that he will be missing the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. This will be a massive blow as not only will they miss the quality bowler but also the captain, who took them to win the ICC World Cup 2023. 
In the absence of Pat Cummins, Australia is likely to give the leadership role to either Travis Head or Steve Smith. The latter has been leading the team in the ongoing Test series against Sri Lanka, and under his leadership, Australia won the first game of the series by a massive margin. 
The development was confirmed by Australia head coach Andrew McDonald, saying that Pat Cummins is highly likely to be unavailable. He also talked about giving leadership roles to Steve Smith and Travis Head. Speaking to SEN, he said:
"Pat Cummins hasn't been able to resume any type of bowling so he's heavily unlikely, so that would mean that we do need a captain. Steve Smith and Travis Head are the two that we've been having conversations with while we've been building out that Champions Trophy team along with Pat back home. They'll be the two that we look at for that leadership post." 
<h2>Josh Hazlewood is expected to be ruled out of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025</h2>
Apart from Pat Cummins, star pacer Josh Hazlewood also is expected to be ruled out of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The fast bowler is battling with a hip issue, which he faced in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. He, too, hasn't bowled since then and is against time to recover. 
His absence could be a big blow as well as he has been one of the consistent players for the team. Pat Cummins, along with Hazlewood, are now among the three Australia players to be ruled out of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. Earlier, Mitchell Marsh was ruled out of the tournament.

IND vs ENG 1st ODI: The ODI series between India and England, the two powerhouse teams, will commence on February 6 with the first ODI at Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium in Nagpur. As the two big guns prepare to take on each other, all eyes will be on the thrilling individual battle that can shape the series. 
This high-stakes encounter promises some intense face-offs between world-class players. With the likes of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma at the top order of India and Jos Buttler and Joe Root for England, the series is going to be tough for bowlers and the stakes are high for the contest. Let's take a closer look at the key player battles to watch out for in IND vs ENG 1st ODI:
<h2>Key Player Battles to Watch Out For in IND vs ENG 1st ODI</h2>
<h3>1- Rohit Sharma vs Jofra Archer</h3>
Indian skipper Rohit Sharma has been struggling with form in recent times, particularly against pace. His vulnerability around the off-stump was exposed during the Test series against Australia, where he repeatedly fell to deliveries in that channel. The trend continued in his only Ranji Trophy appearance, where he failed in both innings against similar deliveries. Additionally, short-pitched bowling is emerging as another concern, making him a prime target for England’s pace spearhead, Jofra Archer.
Archer has already enjoyed success against Rohit in the T20 format, dismissing him three times in just 29 deliveries while conceding only 23 runs. This translates to an impressive strike rate of under 10 balls per wicket against the Indian captain. However, Rohit is known for his ability to adapt quickly to different conditions, and he has proven his resilience time and again. If he can counter Archer’s pace and movement, this battle could be a defining one in the first ODI.
<h3>2- Virat Kohli vs Brydon Carse/Gus Atkinson</h3>
<img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202502/image_430x256_67a2cfa1cda02.jpg" alt="">
With only one of Brydon Carse or Gus Atkinson likely to feature in England’s playing XI, whoever gets the nod will have a crucial role to play against Virat Kohli. Both pacers possess the skill set needed to challenge the modern master of white-ball cricket, especially around his well-documented weakness outside the off-stump. During the Test series against Australia, Kohli repeatedly fell to deliveries in the fifth-stump channel, edging behind—a vulnerability that Atkinson and Carse have the accuracy to exploit.
Unlike express pacers like Jofra Archer and Mark Wood, who rely on raw speed, Atkinson and Carse focus more on control and precision. This makes them an even bigger threat to Kohli early in his innings, as they can keep him guessing with disciplined lines. While there aren’t many head-to-head statistics available for this contest, the impact of this battle could be significant in shaping the match’s outcome.
<h3>3- Jos Buttler vs Mohammed Shami</h3>
<img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202502/image_430x256_67a2cfa7148b9.jpg" alt="">
Jos Buttler, one of England’s most recognized cricketers in India, has been in fine form recently. A well-rounded and technically sound batter, he has very few weaknesses that bowlers have successfully exploited. However, if there is one bowler who could trouble him, it is India’s seasoned pacer, Mohammed Shami.
Shami holds a statistical edge over Buttler in ODIs, having dismissed him five times in just 67 deliveries. While Buttler has managed to score 57 runs off those balls, Shami’s ability to generate movement and maintain a probing line makes him a serious threat. With his knack for producing sharp seam movement and late swing, Shami will look to unsettle Buttler early and continue his dominance in this intriguing contest.
4- Joe Root vs Axar Patel/Ravindra Jadeja
<img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202502/image_430x256_67a2cfa35fdae.jpg" alt="">
England’s right-handed batting maestro, Joe Root, has historically struggled against Jasprit Bumrah, particularly in Indian conditions. However, with Bumrah unavailable for this series, India may turn to spin as their primary weapon against him.
Despite being an exceptional player of spin, Root has shown vulnerability against left-arm off-spinners in the past. With no Bumrah to trouble him with pace and movement, India could look to exploit this weakness by deploying their spinners strategically. In the absence of their pace spearhead, setting a spin trap for Root might be India’s best bet to keep him in check.

The IND vs ENG 1st ODI will feature key battles, including Rohit vs Archer, Kohli vs Atkinson/Carse, Buttler vs Shami, and Root vs India’s spin trap. These matchups could shape the game’s outcome.

Crucial player battles—Rohit vs. Archer, Kohli vs. Atkinson/Carse, Buttler vs. Shami, and Root vs. spin—will define IND vs ENG 1st ODI.

IND vs ENG: After the T20 series concluded, as Mohammed Shami returned to the shortest format for India after a huge span of absence from the format, the World Cup 2023 hero is back playing a crucial hand in the ODI series against England, which will begin on the 6th of February. 
 
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohammed_Shami">Mohammed Shami </a>has had a decent T20 return with 3 wickets across 2 games played and is considered one of the greatest ODI bowlers for India of all time. Especially in the absence of legendary pacer Bumrah, Shami is the most experienced pacer to lead the Indian pace attack. 
 
Ever since the 2023 Cricket World Cup, Shami will play his first one-day international match, supposedly at the Vidarbha Stadium tomorrow. Ahead of the vital clash, Mohammed Shami will enter the field with 195 wickets to his name in the longest limited-overs format.

A peek into Mohammed Shami's stunning career despite injuries (Image Credit: X)
Shami, the Indian fast bowler, began his journey from the T20 Trophy starring for Bengal back in 2010, where he had one of the best debuts ever. Shami played for several franchises in the IPL the Delhi Daredevils, Punjab Kings, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kolkata_Knight_Riders">Kolkata Knight Riders</a>, and Gujarat Titans, where he picked 127 career wickets in the franchise-level cricket tournament. 
 
Shami has played over three World Cups for India ever since his debut in 2013, as he has been India’s highest wicket-taker in the history of the CWC, playing over three editions in 2015, 2019 and 2023. With 450+ career wickets in the Men in Blue’s jersey, Shami, despite participation in several WTC and CWC games, could never be seen on the podium, though he won several individual records, the last being named the Player of the Tournament in the 2023 World Cup.

In what promises to be an exciting and thrilling contest, Steve Smith-led Australia and Dhananjaya de Silva's Sri Lanka are set to lock horns versus each other in the second and the last match of the two-match Test-Series at the Galle International Stadium of Galle from the 6th of February onwards (Wednesday). 
In the opening encounter of the series, the Mighty Aussies secured a comfortable victory by an inning and 242 runs and this win helped them to take an unassailable lead of 1-0 in the two-match series. In such a situation, the Dhananjaya de Silva-led Sri Lanka would be looking to make a strong comeback by rectifying their mistakes in the second match. 
Ahead of this exciting contest, some thrilling player battles will be seen taking place between the star players of both teams which can go on to affect the outcome of the match. We will be taking a look at those player battles in this article
While the Kangaroos have already taken the lead in the series, the home side will have the chance to make a strong comeback by taking advantage of the home conditions on offer. It will be interesting to see which team finishes out on top in these player battles and which team succumbs to the pressure. 
<h2>Dinesh Chandimal versus Matthew Kuhnemann</h2>
Australia's left-arm orthodox spinner Matthew Kuhnemann failed to create an impact with the ball in the first ball, ending the match with 0 scalps to his name but he can trouble Sri Lankan batters on the spinning track of Galle. 
This will be especially very challenging for experienced wicketkeeper-batsman Dinesh Chandimal. He is a good player of spin, has a good record against them and also he knows the conditions of Galle quite well but the variations of Kuhnemann can trouble him in the second Test-Match.
<h2>Prabhat Jayasuriya versus Usman Khawaja</h2>
Australia's experienced opening batter Usman Khawaja is in great form with the bat and he also possesses' an excellent batting record on Subcontinental surfaces. While the Australian team management would be happy to see him performing, they might be a little worried in the 2nd match as experienced left-arm spinner Prabhat Jayasuriya can trouble him a lot. 
The 33-year-old has excellent variations up his sleeve and has knack of performing brilliantly in spin-friendly conditions and home conditions. He also got the better of the Southpaw in the opening encounter, dismissing him when he was batting on the score of 232 runs and Jayasuriya would be looking to get the better of Khawaja again in the final match of the series. 
<h2>Other notable player battles</h2>
Apart from the two above-mentioned player battles, the battle between elite Aussie off-spinner Nathan Lyon and promising Sri Lankan batter Kamindu Mendis will also be worth watching out for. 
Angelo Mathews will have to rely on his batting technique to tackle the speed and swing of Mitchell Starc and at the same time, Asitha Fernando has the ability to trouble the Australian duo of Josh Inglis and Marnus Labuschagne with his pace and bounce.
