Umran Malik roped in by Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) as Natarajan?s replacement.



Vivo IPL 2021: The Sun group owned Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) has roped in Umran Malik as a replacement for pacer T Natarajan. The franchise on Friday announced the development and Malik will remain with the team as a short term replacement of the pacer.?



SRH speedster T Natarajan was, earlier, tested covid positive before its opening match against Delhi Capitals (DC).



?Sunrisers Hyderabad have brought in medium-pacer Umran Malik as a short-term COVID-19 replacement for T Natarajan for their VIVO Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 campaign," an IPL release stated.



Malik, who hails from Jammu and Kashmir, has featured in one T20 and a List A match and has scalped four wickets. The pacer is already in SRH set up as a net bowler.

</div></figure>



"Under the Regulation 6.1 (c), franchises are allowed to sign short-term replacement players during the absence of a regular squad member, so Malik will "only be a part of the Sunrisers side until Natarajan recovers and is allowed to join the team", an IPL statement confirmed.



Natarajan played a crucial role in the little success SRH got last year in the UAE. The pacer was brilliant with his execution of the slower bowls along with the stock deliveries. The franchise finished third in the points table last year.



The franchise is having a hard time this year where they found it hard to cross the winning line. SRH is ranked last in the team rankings of IPL 2021 with just a solitary win and seven losses from eight matches.



SRH will lock horns with Punjab Kings (PBKS) in its next match which is scheduled to be played out on 25th September.

Vivo IPL 2021: Praise from all around the cricket fraternity heaps over India?s young pace sensation Umran Malik as he delivers the fastest delivery of the Vivo IPL 2021 (153 Kmph). The speedster from Kashmir has been bowling with raw pace in the Vivo IPL 2021?s recent fixtures for SRH.



Malik, who played his first IPL match against KKR bowled with sheer pace and clocked over 150 Kmph. Shattering his own record, Malik in his second game went on to bowl a 153 Kmph speedy delivery in the match against Royal Challengers Bangalore.

</div></figure>



It is noteworthy that Umran Malik was drafted into the SRH squad as a replacement for pacer T Natarajan, who contracted the covid virus.&nbsp;



Senior all-rounder Jason Holder has opened that the young pacer has shown hard times in the nets to the SRH batters with his pace deliveries.



?I think the first thing to mention is his pace. That?s his biggest asset. He?s just been consistent in training and he?s been giving us quite a hard time in training. He has been very hard to get hold of. As you have seen in the games, he is obviously deceiving a lot of batters for pace. That extra pace always adds a boost to any bowling attack,? the former West Indian captain said at a post-match conference.

The Caribbean cricketer further said that Malik?s control is even while bowling in excess of 150 Kmph makes him much more effective.



?It?s good to see his control as well. A lot of guys who have bowled quick over the years, sometimes, may seem erratic. But he has been pretty consistent and he has grouped really good deliveries together.?



Malik has played two matches in the IPL 2021 in which he has just managed to pick one wicket. Despite picking a solitary wicket in his two outings, the 21-years old pacer has been economical. He remained under 6 in both the games and deceived several batters with his raw pace.



A number of commentators along with former cricketers have praised the young gun for his phenomenal performance. The Indian skipper Virat Kohli, during the post-match presentation after the RCB vs SRH match, reckons that India needs to groom such exciting talents.

Vivo IPL 2021: He has been giving us hard times in the nets, says Jason Holder on Umran Malik

he-has-been-giving-us-hard-times-in-nets-jason-holder-on-umran-malik

The Indian Cricket Team for the T20 World Cup 2021 is the current talk of the town. From the surprise?selection?of experienced campaigner Ravichandran Ashwin to the exclusion of Shreyas Iyer, several things raised the eyebrows. The latest development to this team is the addition of net bowlers. The team?requires?good net bowlers. There is a possibility that Umran Malik from the Sunrisers Hyderabad and Harshal Patel, the current purple cap holder from Royal Challengers?Bangalore?will be added.?Also,?there are a few concerns on Varun Chakravarthy?s fitness: -?



<h2>Umran Malik and Harshal Patel To Be Added As Net Bowlers: -?</h2>



Being a net bowler in the Indian Cricket Team is one thing that can?change?the dynamics of a player?s career. Be it, Natarajan, on the Australia Tour in 2020-21, who later debuted in all three formats in absence of key players, or Sandeep Warrier on the Sri Lanka Tour in 2021. The latest possible addition to the Indian net bowlers for the T20 World Cup 2021 is Umran Malik and Harshal Patel.?



Harshal Patel is the current purple cap holder in the IPL. He has picked 30 wickets in the IPL 2021. He has been the best death bowler with a mix of smart slower ones and cutters. Harshal Patel and his hattrick against the Mumbai Indians is one that a cricket fan can never forget. According to several cricket analysts, he has been the best bowler in the league.??



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2021/10/cricket-br2.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-76281" /><figcaption>Gautam Gambhir has regarded Harshal Patel as the best bowler of the season.</figcaption></figure>



Umran Malik is having a dream year this season. He was initially the net bowler for Sunrisers Hyderabad and after the failure of all the Indian options for SRH, he was finally drafted to the main squad. And Umran made sure he makes a mark. He is the bowler to ball the quickest delivery this season clocking 153 kmph! A duplicate of the prime Waqar Younis, Umran can be a strike force if he is groomed well and has his head on the shoulders.&nbsp;



<h2>Concern Over Varun?Chakravathy?s?Fitness: -?</h2>



Varun?Chakravarthy?is another name that asks the fans to give a second thought. Varun if picked in the final 15 which is supposed to be announced today (10th?October), he finds a direct place in the 11. One cannot ignore the fact that Varun has been in star-studded form lately and he is an asset to the team. The concern is over his knee injuries. Varun has been taking a lot of pressure on his knees from the start of the season. His mystery spinning abilities are second to none.??



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2021/10/cricket-br3.png" alt="" class="wp-image-76282" /><figcaption>Varun Chakravarthy, if fit, will turn the tide in favor of Indians.</figcaption></figure>



If Varun misses out (which seems a rare scenario now) Yuzi Chahal is the best option to replace him. The team has chosen the lesser-known Rahul Chahar over the experienced and better-known Yuzi Chahal.&nbsp;Yuzvendra&nbsp;Chahal has made the most of the dry UAE pitches and has done well with RCB. On the other&nbsp;hand,&nbsp;Rahul Chahar was unfortunately dropped from the Mumbai Indians squad as well. Now it is up to the selectors on which of the 3 spinners will be finalized.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Umran Malik asked to stay back in the UAE by the BCCI for T20 World Cup 2021.



ICC T20 World Cup 2021: India?s new pace sensation, Umran Malik has been asked to stay back in the UAE by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) for the upcoming ICC T20 World Cup 2021.?



The speedster put everyone on their toes with his tearaway express deliveries in the Vivo IPL 2021 playing for Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH). It is noteworthy that Malik was drafted into the SRH squad as a replacement for T Natarajan, who was ruled out after contracting covid.



The pacer has just featured in one List A match and one T20 match for Jammu and Kashmir prior to featuring in the Vivo IPL 2021. SRH picked the pacer as a net bowler in the UAE.



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
https://twitter.com/cricbuzz/status/1446881965102145538
</div></figure>



In his very first game for SRH, Malik clocked 150 Kmph and in the second match against RCB, he broke his own record and clocked 153 Kmph to make it the fastest delivery of the Vivo IPL 2021.?



<h2>Virat Kohli heaps praise on Umran Malik:</h2>



The Indian skipper Virat Kohli was left dazzled with the raw pace of Malik and said that the bowlers like him should be looked after to ensure their progress.



"This tournament throws up talent every year," Kohli had said at the presentation. "It's good to see a guy bowling at 150 clicks. It's important to understand the progress of individuals from here on, how to maintain your body and how you can get the best out of them. The pool of fast bowlers being strong is always going to be a good thing for Indian cricket. Whenever you see talent like this, obviously you're going to have your eyes on them and make sure that you maximise their potential."

Malik?s raw pace deceived several top-class batters in his small outing. He ended his short Vivo IPL 2021 campaign after a defeat against Mumbai Indians. Though he went for a few runs in the match, he managed to deceive flamboyant Ishan Kishan (84 off 32) and disturbed the concentration of dangerous Suryakumar Yadav (82 off 40) to rescue his side from an extremely mammoth target.



The young pacer?s presence for India in the upcoming ICC T20 World Cup 2021, as a net bowler, will assist the India batsman to prepare well against the fast deliveries. It is noteworthy that Pakistan, South Africa and New Zealand have pacers who can clock around and over 150 KMPH on a consistent basis and Malik?s presence will aid India to tackle such bowlers in the World Cup.



Virat Kohli-led Team India will face Pakistan in its opening match at the ICC T20 World Cup 2021 on October 24 in Dubai International Stadium.

SRH Full Players List in IPL 2022: Sunrisers Hyderabad has been in the limelight ever since it took the harsh step to sack David Warner from the captaincy without any proper reasoning. The franchise was centred with several questions post-David Warner?s emotional post to part ways with the team. Apparently, David Warner was the one who took SRH to its first-ever IPL title in 2016 and he has been a phenomenal cricketer for them.&nbsp;



It can?t be justified why SRH took that harsh step to sideline David Warner altogether from the team. However, the debate seems to be settling down now with the IPL 2022 Player retentions being announced.



SRH has retained three cricketers and as expected David Warner is not on that list. This article will walk you through SRH Full Players List in IPL 2022 - Retained, Released, Updated Squad after Mega Auction.

The franchise wanted to retain Afghanistan spinner Rashid Khan during the player retention, however, a strong bargain between the cricketer and franchise went in vain. The reports indicated that Khan wanted to be the first choice retention of SRH, however, the franchise wanted Kane Williamson to be their top player for IPL 2022. The negotiation didn?t go well with both parties and Khan was eventually released to the auction.

Harbhajan Singh backs SRH pacer, Umran Malik, to play T20 World Cup 2022: Former Indian spinner Harbhajan Singh reckons Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) express pacer Umran Malik is just inches short to don a coveted blue Indian jersey in the upcoming ICC T20 World Cup 2022 in Australia.&nbsp;



Umran Malik has been turning the heat on with his sheer pace in the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). The Jammu pacer is consistently clocking 150 kmph in every game he plays for Sunrisers Hyderabad.



The speedster has already scalped nine wickets in six IPL 2022 games and is placed in the ninth position in the Purple Cap race.



Notably, the Indian Premier League (IPL) serves as a launchpad for young Indian players to showcase their talents and knock the selector's door for their maiden Indian call-up. With the T20 World Cup 2022 lined ahead, the selectors would be closely watching every action happening in the tournament.



Harbhajan Singh, following SRH?s win over Punjab last night, reckons that Umran Malik deserves to be in India's squad for the T20 World Cup 2022.

?This (Blue) is the only jersey missing and he should get it early. I feel he is the most deserving one who should be selected to play for India in that T20 World Cup in Australia. He could be your match-winner there,? said Harbhajan Singh in Star Sports.



In SRH?s last match against Punjab Kings, Umran Malik shocked the world by delivering a triple wicket maiden final over the match. The pacer picked up three wickets and a run-out in the final over of Punjab?s innings and turned the game on its toes.



Owing to his outstanding bowling efforts, Malik become the only fourth pacer to deliver a maiden 20th over in an IPL match. Earlier, legendary pacer Lasith Malinga along with left-arm pacers Irfan Pathan and Jaydev Unadkat achieved the feat.

Umran Malik likely to be named in India?s squad for South Africa and Ireland: Reports: Express pacer Umran Malik has taken the cricketing world by storm as he continues his purple patch in the ongoing IPL 2022. Malik, who hails from Kashmir, has exploited the opportunities for his good and has stolen all the limelights following his sensational display of raw pace.?



Owing to his rich IPL exploits, Umran Malik is highly likely to get team India?s maiden call-up for the limited-overs series against South Africa and Ireland, said a report.



Team India is set to host South Africa for a five-match T20I series after the conclusion of the Tata IPL 2022. Malik is highly likely to be named in the Indian squad. 



Malik has been clocking 150 kph consistently in all his IPL 2022 outings. The speedster bowls with an average speed of 146 kph and has the knack of troubling batters with his sheer pace.



?How often do you get a bowler in India bowling at 150kph+ consistently? He is a rare talent and is definitely on our radar. Of course, his name is being considered for India so that he can be groomed,? a member of the selection committee told.



While a few shades of Umran Malik were visible during the IPL 2021, under the guidance of Dale Steyn, Malik has transformed himself into a matured cricketer with better control.?



The 22-years old bowler recently bowled a deadly 152.8 kph yorker to clean up a well-settled Wriddhiman Saha during Gujarat Titans vs Sunrisers Hyderabad match. Though his team, SRH, remained on the losing side against GT, Malik impressed everyone with his bowling as he picked up his maiden five-for in the Indian Premier League.

?Look at those figures, 5-25, the best figures in this year?s IPL. You can bowl him for an over, bowl him for two overs, bowl him for three overs. Let him run in, bowl around him. Build your fast-bowling around him,? said Kevin Peterson after the match.



Cricket experts and pundits have heaped praises on the pacer for his bowling brilliance. In no time, Malik is now being seen as India?s future who can be a deadly weapon for India in the longest format of cricket.



?Just have a look at some of the great sides, some of the great Australian sides that we?ve played against, [they had] the Brett Lees, the Mitchell Johnsons. This guy is a Test bowler, no one likes to face this pace,? he added.

Umran Malik likely to be named in India?s squad for South Africa and Ireland: Reports

umran-malik-likely-to-be-named-in-indias-squad-for-south-africa-and-ireland-reports

The IPL Is a budding ground for the young Indian talent and this is exactly what was shown in IPL 2022.?This season saw many tear-away performers with the ball in their hands. There have been many bowlers who have impressed with sheer pace. With India looking to improve its fast bowling arsenal, fresher options are always welcome. Here is a look at the fast bowlers who have been mighty impressive:?



<h2>Mukesh Choudhary Plays for CSK in IPL 2022:&nbsp;</h2>



Mukesh Choudhary the left-arm pacer from Bhilwara has been an integral part of the<a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/ipl-2022-chennai-super-kings-csk-squad-2022-playing-11-schedule/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Chennai Super Kings</a> squad. The left-armer dismissed Ishan Kishan most lethally. He forced Ishan down to his knees! His yorkers are pinpoint. Mukesh does leak runs a few times but this is just the learning curve of his career. Making his list A debut in 2019, Mukesh has come a very long way. Under the leadership of MS Dhoni, Mukesh is expected to bloom and blossom into a Superstar. He bowls at a decent average of 28.8. ?



<h2>Kuldeep Sen Plays for Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2022:&nbsp;</h2>



Kuldeep Sen burst onto the scene after an elite last over to Marcus Stoinis in the rocking IPL 2022 game between <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/ipl-2022-rajasthan-royals-rr-squad-2022-playing-11-schedule/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Rajasthan Royals</a> and Lucknow Super Giants. Sen was so good that RR picked him ahead of the well-seasoned Navdeep Saini. Kuldeep at times can bowl up to 150 clicks. This speaks volumes of the raw talent that our amazing nation has. Kuldeep Sen debuted for Madhya Pradesh in 2018. Coming from a small village named Rewa, Kuldeep has a point to prove. He bowls at an excellent average of 20.8.?



<h2>Yash Dayal Plays for Gujarat Titans:&nbsp;</h2>



Yash Dayal, the local boy from Lucknow plays for the Gujarat Titans in IPL 2022. He gives hope for the Indian team to get a good left-arm pacer. Yash, if groomed well has the potential to be that left-arm bowler that the nation awaits after the retirement of Zak. He is a tall bloke and gets extra zip from the pitch. Yash bowls at 145 clicks and can intimidate the batsmen. He is bowling at an average of 20.2. ?



<h2>Jammu Express Umran Malik:?</h2>



Pace Sensation Umran Malik or Jammu Express! Whatever you call him, Umran has been super impressive this season. The move of the Sunrisers Hyderabad was heavily criticized when they decided to retain this bloke. Everyone believed that Umran was a one-season wonder. But his performance this season speaks a lot about his talent. His pace hasn?t dropped a bit! With Dale Steyn being his mentor, it is safe to say that the future of this youth sensation is in safe hands. The aggression that Umran has suited the new Indian team as well. Umran has picked 15 wickets in 9 games at an average of 19. ?

IPL 2022: Young Fast Bowlers Who Have Been Impressive.&nbsp;

ipl-2022-young-fast-bowlers-who-have-been-impressive

The Indian Cricket Team for any global event such as the ICC T20 World Cup, ICC Champions Trophy, and ODI World Cup is always the talk of the town. In the past few tournaments, we have seen some jaw-dropping choices made by the selection panel. Ambati Rayudu getting dropped just before the ICC ODI World Cup, Yuzi Chahal not getting picked for the ICC T20 World Cup, and many such decisions left the fans with a sour taste in their mouth. Here is an in-depth look at what influences the choices of the selectors:?



<h2>Fast-Tracking Culture:&nbsp;</h2>



The Fast-Tracking Culture is very common in India. What does fast-tracking mean? It means that you promote a youth sensation straight away to the national team without any domestic grilling or with limited domestic of that individual. For example, Ravi Shastri debuted at the age of 19, Sachin Tendulkar debuted at 16, and Prithvi Shaw and <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/hardik-pandya-shubman-gill-and-ashish-nehra-reveal-the-logo-of-gujarat-titans-on-metaverse/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Shubman Gill </a>both played for the national team at age 18 and 20 respectively. This fast-tracking is done to make maximum use of the talent that such players have. ?



Whether it is right or wrong? Is a thing to ponder about! At times the fast-tracking culture results in some amazing batsmen never getting a proper chance. Like Badrinath wasn?t picked because Kohli was fast-tracked. Amol Mazumdar didn?t get a chance because Sachin was in his prime. The same?applies to<a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/umran-malik-likely-to-be-named-in-indias-squad-for-south-africa-and-ireland-reports/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Jammu Express Umran Malik. </a>There certainly is a vacancy in the Indian fast-bowling lineup in the T20Is and Umran does stand a good chance for selection. ?



<h2>Current Form of Players will be Considered for ICC T20 World Cup Team:&nbsp;</h2>



The current form of players is a crucial factor to be considered while selecting players. There was a big question of why Varun Chakravarthy was picked over Yuzi Chahal in the ICC T20 World Cup in 2021! The answer is because Varun had a phenomenal IPL 2021. Varun was on the list of top wicket-takers. His current form was preferred. Vijay Shankar and his current form were preferred and he was chosen over Ambati Rayudu in 2019. ?



<h2>Fitness of Players will be Considered for ICC T20 World Cup:&nbsp;</h2>



We saw Ravichandran Ashwin getting picked out of the blue for the T20 World Cup 2021. Why was Ashwin picked? Ashwin was picked because he was the only right-arm off-spinner who could trouble left-handers! Washington Sundar was out of contention due to fitness issues and hence he was picked. India also missed T Natarajan in the ICC T20 World Cup at the death. He was also out of the selection process as he was injured. ?

ICC T20 World Cup: Umran Malik for World Cup? Is it too early??

icc-t20-world-cup-umran-malik-for-world-cup-is-it-too-early

Umran Malik must be groomed through a systematic process, says MSK Prasad: Former Indian chief national selector, MSK Prasad expressed his views on the recent call for the inclusion of young Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) pacer, Umran Malik on the Indian national side following his success in the ongoing Tata Indian Premier League (IPL) season fifteen.?



MSK Prasad reckons Umran Malik should be given proper cricketing exposure before drafting him on the national side. A full domestic season coupled with a few A tours would help the pacer understand his game better.



It's important to note that, Umran Malik has been outstanding in the Tata IPL 2022. His impactful performances for Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) have received praise from cricket pundits. The 22-year old Kashmir pacer has the knack for consistently bowling 150 clicks, which has become his major strength.



The pacer recently bowled the fastest delivery of the Tata IPL 2022 clocking 157 KPH playing against Delhi Capitals, a few days ago.



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
https://twitter.com/mufaddal_vohra/status/1522243357086720000
</div></figure>



MSK Prasad in a conversation with The Federal said that the learning element in the journey of the pacer shouldn?t be omitted in order to fast-track his selection to the Indian national team.



?I feel Umran Malik should be groomed through a systematic process rather than fast-tracking into the Indian team,? MSK Prasad told The Federal.

He further cited that Mohammad Siraj went through a complete process of the domestic circuit and Malik should follow a similar trajectory.



?I know that clicking 150 kph-plus is never easy. But if you pick him for international duty and if he doesn?t do well, he will be dejected and will be nowhere. So, a full season of domestic cricket and a couple of India A tours will help him to develop into a good bowler similar to Mohammed Siraj,? he added.



?Siraj bowled very well in his first full Test tour to Australia. He could do that because he had gained the experience of red-ball cricket by picking close to 50 wickets for India A. I know that very few people have that ability (to bowl 150 kph-plus).?



The former selector explained how gaining experience in the domestic series will help the pacer in the longer run.&nbsp;



?By grooming him through a process, there are chances that he will serve Indian cricket for a longer period. At the moment, I am really enjoying watching him. Credit should be given to the Sunrisers Hyderabad team management because they backed him,? Prasad added.

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.

"Pakistan darr gaya"- PCB attacked as they are yet to announce ICC Champions Trophy 2025 squad

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.

Arshdeep Singh on the verge become the greatest Indian fast bowler in T20Is

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>
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>

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>
