<h2>South Africa's inning:</h2>



The hosts did not have a good start as Temba Bavuma departed in the first over itself. Skipper, Quinton de Kock, and experienced Faf du Plessis didn?t let the English bowlers took control of the innings. Both the batsmen sewed a good 80 runs stand before the second wicket.&nbsp;



De Kock (30 from 23) went to the hut off Chris Jordan However, du Plessis remained in the middle to set a good total.



Sam Curran got du Plessis out when the protea just crossed his fifty.



In the quota of full 20 overs, South Africa managed a good total on the board, 179-6 (20 overs). Faf du Plessis (58 from 40), Quinton de Kock (30 from 23), van der Dussen (37 off 28) and Klaasen (20 off 12) contributed to the 179 runs total.



Sam Curran picked 3 scalps while Jofra Archer, Tom Curran, and Chris Joran got one each.



<h2>England's Inning:</h2>



England skipper, Eoin Morgan made a drastic change by promoting Jos Buttler to the opening slot while Jhonny Bairstow came at 4.



The chase was not going to be easy for the Englishmen, their openers departed inside 5 overs putting the lineup on the back foot.



The T20I sensation Dawid Malan could not stay in the crease for a long as he went to the hut after scoring 19 runs. Johnny Bairstow from one end took complete charge, getting close to the target.



The turning point in the chase came when Beuran Hendricks came to bowl the 17th overs. Skipper Eoin Morgan and Jhonny Bairstow smashed the protea bowler to 28 runs all over the park, including 3 wides.



The chase was now completely under England?s control. Johnny Bairstow finished the innings with back to back boundaries with a four and a maximum. With these boundaries, England wins the game by 5 wickets and with four balls to spare.

Australia vs India: Match Preview, Prediction, Playing 11, Dream11 Fantasy Tips Aus vs Ind 2nd T20I

India is currently taking on Sri Lanka at Dharamshala?s Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in the third and last T20I of the ongoing series between the two sides. The Blues have won the first two matches of the series and if they win tonight as well, it would be an absolute whitewash. Indian captain Rohit Sharma gave a tremendous performance both in captaincy and with the bat. But more important than that, he broke an untouchable record and thus made history.&nbsp;



Rohit Sharma has been one of the most important players in the Indian Senior team for quite some time now across all formats. He is one of the best not only in India but in the whole world. According to ICC rankings, he is currently 6th in Test Cricket, 3rd in ODI and 11th in T20I which speaks loads about his current form.&nbsp;



But what Rohit Sharma is mostly known for is his brilliant captaincy abilities. Rohit made his captaincy debut with IPL franchise Mumbai Indians back in 2013 and won the title with them in his maiden captaincy season. The rest is, as they say, history.&nbsp;



He went on to win 5 IPL trophies with Mumbai Indians, the highest ever in IPL history, and seems to have no plans to stop yet. The closest to him is Mahendra Singh Dhoni with 4 IPL trophies. But given their age difference, Rohit will play for many more years while Dhoni?s days as captain are numbered.&nbsp;



Well, the Indian captain has proved his consistency once again at the International level as he became the most capped player in T20I history. He has now played 125 International T20 Matches which is the highest ever. Previously the record was held by Pakistan?s Shoaib Malik.&nbsp;



<h2>Here?s a list of the most capped players in T20I:-</h2>



<ol><li>Rohit Sharma (India) - 125 matches</li><li>Shoaib Malik (Pakistan) - 124 matches</li><li>Mohammad Hafeez (Pakistan) - 119 matches</li><li>Eoin Morgan (England) - 115 matches</li><li>Mahmudullah (Bangladesh) - 113 matches</li></ol>



Seeing the other players on this list, it can be estimated that Rohit will be holding this record for a pretty long time until some other players emerge. But that will take a lot of time.&nbsp;



Rohit Sharma made his T20I debut for India back in 2007 and it has now been over 15 years that he has been at the top consistently. He deserves a great deal of respect and appreciation for that.&nbsp;

Rohit Sharma becomes the most capped player ever in T20I - Creates History

Sixes have always been an important aspect of a T20I match. No matter what the situation of the innings is, or what phase the game is in, a big hit over the fence is all a team needs to gain the upper hand. Several batsmen all across the globe have been seen helping their team get over the line courtesy of some wonderful big hitting.&nbsp;



The six-hitting ability is what makes a batsman useful to the side during a steep run chase, or even post a big total by spring quick runs in the middle and death overs. Over the years, the shortest format of cricket has seen several such batsmen mastering the art of hitting the ball into the stands at will.&nbsp;



It's time for us to take a look at the top three batsmen with the most sixes in T20 internationals so far.&nbsp;



<h2>3. Chris Gayle (124 sixes)</h2>

At no.3 in the list of top 6 hitters in T20Is is none other than the universe boss Chris Gayle. The left-handed hard-hitting opening batsman has smashed a total of 124 sixes in the 75 innings that he's featured in T20Is.&nbsp;



His strike rate has been that of 137.89 along with an average of around 28. The West Indian was also the first man to hit a century in the history of T20Is.



<h2>2. Rohit Sharma (164)</h2>

At no.2 in the list is the Indian skipper Rohit Sharma. Sharma who is widely known for his effortless sixes and destructive batting style has smashed a total of 164 sixes in the 124 innings of T20Is for his team.&nbsp;



The right-hander has had a strike rate of 140.26 with an average of 32.28. He is the player with the most centuries in the history of T20I cricket so far.

The player with the most sixes in the history of T20I cricket so far is kiwi opener Martin Guptill. The right-handed tall batsman has smashed a total of 170 sixes in the 114 T20I innings that he's played so far.&nbsp;



The hard-hitting opener had a strike rate of close to 136 along with an average of 32. He has scored two centuries in his T20I career too.

<a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/?s=Pakistan+National+Cricket+Team" rel="nofollow">Pakistan National Cricket Team</a> Schedule 2024, Upcoming T20Is, ODIs and Test Matches | Pakistan Cricket Schedule, Fixtures:?Pakistan National Cricket Team will be playing a couple of bilateral series especially T20I and Test cricket in the year 2024. Pakistan started the year with a three-match test series against Australia but they failed to win the series as their key players didn't perform well against Australian Pacers on the fast and bounce wicket in <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/?s=Australia" rel="nofollow">Australia</a>.



However, As the <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/category/t20/t20-world-cup/icc-mens-t20-world-cup-2024/" rel="nofollow">ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024 </a>is scheduled to start on June 01, 2024, in the West Indies and USA, Pakistan will be playing some bilateral T20I series before the tournament to test their bench strength. Pakistan Cricket Team will be looking to improve their weak areas before the important tournament.



Recently, the Pakistan National Cricket Team played a five-match T20I series against New Zealand but they again performed poorly in this and lost the crucial series by 4-1. Former Skipper Babar Azam and Mohd. Rizwan played good cricket but other batters and bowlers didn't perform well in the series which led them to defeat.



Pakistan Super League 2024 is going to start from February 17, 2024, to March 18, 2024 therefore Pakistan National Cricket Team will not play any bilateral series between these months. However, After the PSL 2024 Pakistan will be playing the five-match T20I series against New Zealand on their home.



The T20I series against New Zealand will be the second T20I bilateral series of the Pakistan National Cricket Team against New Zealand in the year 2024. Before the ICC T20I World Cup 2024, Pakistan will be playing a crucial four-match T20I series against England which is scheduled to start from May 22, 2024.

With the change in colours of the ball and clothing, India, mostly with a different set of personnel, will be keen to live up to its World champion’s tag in the five-match T20I series against England, dubbed as ‘SKYball’ vs ‘Bazball,’ and redeem some pride following its Test series debacle in home and away against New Zealand and Australia respectively.


India’s winning streak in the shortest format of the game has seen them wrap up every bilateral T20 series since August 2023 and captain Suryakumar Yadav will look to build on his new-look team’s success before their co-hosted T20 World Cup in February 2026.

The focus will also be on coach Gautam Gambhir, who has faced some criticism after the two Test series defeats. The doughty Delhiite, who coached India to T20 series wins over Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh, has captained and mentored Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) to title wins in the Indian Premier League (IPL) and will look forward to his familiar turf and format to guide India to some positive results and revive his credibility.

The contests between both sides have been closely matched, with India winning 13 of their 24 matches in the shortest format, including the last one at the semifinals of the T20 World Cup 2024 in Guyana.
England have beaten India in the remaining 11 T20 games.

Although the records says that both team have almost equal chances for being winner 
But if we see slightly deep the chances for Indian team will be more to win series because of their previous few series records state that Indian have more chances of being sealing this series.

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>
<img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_679065b3730c0.jpg" alt="" width="792" height="493">

<h3 dir="ltr">2: Babar Azam</h3>

<h3 dir="ltr">3: Virat Kohli</h3>

<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.
<h3 dir="ltr">5: Mohammad Rizwan</h3>

<h3 dir="ltr">6: Hardik Pandya</h3>
Indian all-rounder <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardik_Pandya">Hardik Pandya</a> has been the asset for the Indian side, winning matches on several occasions. Pandya has been a responsible batsman down the order with an exemplary record against Pakistan. He on several occasions has won matches for India single-handedly, be it with the bat or with the ball. 
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, Shadab Khan has 855 runs and 85 wickets for the Pakistan side to his name.
<h3 dir="ltr">8: Kuldeep Yadav</h3>
<img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_6790665563c6d.jpg" alt="" width="741" height="461">
Kuldeep Yadav: The wizard for India in the sub-continent (Image Credit: X)
Kuldeep Yadav, the left-arm Chinaman bowler, has had an immense impact on India’s performances under sub-continent conditions. He is known for his standout services in the ODI format and hence features as the only main spin bowling option in the 11.

<h3 dir="ltr">9: Shaheen Shah Afridi</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?
