<p>On the day the selectors were anticipated to announce the squad for the forthcoming white-ball home series against Sri Lanka, Tuesday, Yash Dhull, however, became trending on Twitter. According to several media sources, Dhull might be contending for a spot on the ODI squad.?</p>



<h2><strong>Who is Yash Dhul?</strong></h2>



<p>The Delhi-born Yash Dhull, a lanky middle-order batsman, rose to fame earlier this year when the Indian U-19 side won the World Cup by defeating England in the title game in February 2022. Dhull, the team's captain, received immediate praise for a few outstanding knocks that contributed to India winning the title. After that victory, the Delhi kid addressed the media and made it clear that he wanted to play for the senior national team as soon as possible.</p>



<p>Since then, he has collected 939 runs in 10 first-class games, smashing 4 hundred and 2 half-centuries at an average of over 67. He has one half-century under his belt and has scored 191 runs in six games in List A (domestic one-day matches), which are modest statistics in contrast.</p>



<p>The performances are excellent, but given the pool of quality that Indian cricket now possesses, one would surmise that the 20-year-old is still a long way from fulfilling his dream of representing Team India.</p>

<p>Dhull may be gunning for a spot in the ODI team, according to some media sources, including one from Cricbuzz. When this fact was brought up, Twitter went into overdrive, and the youngster quickly became popular. We'll look at some of the responses. Some tweets expressed support, while others questioned whether Dhull deserved to be considered or if there were other candidates who were more deserving.</p>

Yash Dhul trends on Twitter ahead of the Indian team announcement for the Sri Lanka series

yash-dhul-trends-on-twitter-ahead-of-the-indian-team-announcement-for-the-sri-lanka-series

<p>Delhi Capitals (DC) had a poor start to their <a href="https://www.iplt20.com/auction" data-type="URL" data-id="https://www.iplt20.com/auction">Indian Premier League </a>(IPL) 2023 campaign. They suffered a massive 50-run loss at the hands of Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) and it?s fair to say that the loss in the opening game would?ve hampered their confidence. But it?s still early in the tournament as they still have 13 games left and with the kind of talent they have, they can stage a dominating comeback.?</p>



<p>In their first match against LSG, they bowled, batted and fielded poorly. Opting for the ball, they conceded many runs and also dropped catches as well. Based on poor fielding and bowling, they conceded 193 runs. But they looked clueless against the pace of Mark Wood. Skipper David Warner scored a half-century but wasn?t at his fluent best. They struggled to get going and managed only 143 runs, losing the game by 50 runs.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Two changes that Delhi Capitals (DC) might make for their second game against Gujarat Titans (GT)</strong></h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="http://www.icccricketschedule.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/delhi_capitals_squad_1652346520806_1652346526085-1024x576.webp" alt="Delhi Capitals" class="wp-image-90931" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Delhi Capitals</figcaption></figure>



<p>Delhi Capitals would want to forget their opening game as it was a really poor performance from their end. They are next slated to face Gujarat Titans at home on 4th April. As their second game is around the corner, let?s take a look at two changes that Delhi Capitals (DC) might make for their second game against Gujarat Titans (GT).?</p>

</div></figure>



<p><strong>1. Phil Salt in place of Rovman Powell&nbsp;</strong></p>



<p>One change that Delhi Capitals might look to do for their second game against Gujarat Titans is they can bring Phil Slat in place of Rovman Powell. It?s fair to say that the David Warner-led side lacked a quality keeper in the team, which cost them a few runs. Therefore the West Indies batter might have to sacrifice his place in the side for a specialist keeper in Salt. Also, Powell didn?t make most of the opportunity he got and didn?t look settled with the bat. He managed just 1 run. On the other hand, Salt has been in staggering form and can strengthen the team?s batting lineup.?</p>

<p><strong>2. Yash Dhull in place of Sarfaraz Khan&nbsp;</strong></p>



<p>Another change that Delhi Capitals would be looking to make in their second game is that they could bring in young Yash Dhull in place of Sarfaraz Khan, who had a poor outing with both bat and gloves in the game. The batter scored just 4 runs in 9 balls and looked unsettled at the crease. On the other hand, Dhull has been in fine form in the domestic circuit and his ability to hit the bowlers right from the ball 1 could come in handy for the team in the middle overs.?</p>

<p>Apart from these two changes, Delhi Capitals are unlikely to make a change to their XI. Here?s the probable DC playing XI for their second game against GT:?</p>



<p><strong>David Warner (c)?<br>Prithvi Shaw?<br>Mitchell Marsh?<br>Phil Slat (wk)<br>Rilee Roussouw<br>Yash Dhull?<br>Axar Patel?<br>Kuldeep Yadav?<br>Chetan Sakariya?<br>Khaleel Ahmed?<br>Mukesh Kumar?</strong></p>

Two changes that Delhi Capitals (DC) might make for their second game against Gujarat Titans (GT)

two-changes-that-delhi-capitals-dc-might-make-for-their-second-game-against-gujarat-titans-gt

<p>Things are not going right for Delhi Capitals in the <a href="https://www.iplt20.com" data-type="URL" data-id="https://www.iplt20.com">Indian Premier League</a> (IPL) 2023. They are yet to open their account in the league as they have suffered two-disappointing losses in their first two games. In the first game against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), they suffered a massive 50-run loss. It was expected that they would turn things around at their home game against Gujarat Titans. But this wasn?t the case as they bagged a 6-wicket loss in their second game. However, it still baby steps in the tournament and they need to look at the areas in which they are struggling before it?s too late. With the kind of talent and experience they have in the team, they can make a dominating comeback but they need to rejuvenate themselves and every player needs to take responsibility.?</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Two changes that Delhi Capitals (DC) might make for their next game after suffering two consecutive losses in IPL 2023&nbsp;</strong></h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="http://www.icccricketschedule.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/delhi_capitals_squad_1652346520806_1652346526085-1024x576.webp" alt="Delhi Capitals" class="wp-image-90931" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Delhi Capitals</figcaption></figure>



<p>The two games so far have been horrendous for the Delhi Capitals. It has been a poor performance from their end as they have struggled to score runs with the bat. They are next slated to face Rajasthan Royals on 8th April. As their third game is around the corner, let?s take a look at two changes that Delhi Capitals (DC) might make for their second game against Rajasthan Royals.?</p>



<p><strong>1. Yash Dhull in place of Sarfaraz Khan?</strong></p>



<p>One of the prime changes that Delhi Capitals might be looking to do in their third game is that they can bring young Yash Dhull in place of Sarfaraz Khan. The Mumbai batter has been struggling to get going and didn?t look settled in the two games he played. The batter scored just 4 runs in 9 balls in the first game and then scored 30 runs in 34 balls in the second game. He had a torrid time in the field against GT as he failed to time the ball. On the other hand, Dhull has been in fine form in the domestic circuit and could play a vital role team in the middle. His ability to hit the bowlers right from the ball 1 could come in handy for the team as DC is lacking a quality Indian batter in the middle.?</p>

<p><strong>2. Lalit Yadav in place of Aman Khan&nbsp;</strong></p>



<p>Delhi Capitals? batting has let them down so far in the tournament. They are struggling to get going and also lacking a great start at the top and finishing as well. Aman Khan, who played the second game as an all-rounder, in the team failed drastically with both bat and ball and therefore the team can look to replace him in the team. They could bring in Lalit Yadav in his place. The all-rounder was one of the emerging performers for DC last year. His ability to bat and bowl leg spin could be vital for DC. This will not only strengthen their batting lineup but will also give a leg-spinner who can support Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel.&nbsp;</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">India-A vs Pakistan-A Pitch Report</h2>



<p>Since the pitch at R. Premadasa Stadium has frequently been flat, the batsmen have had good bounce and pace for their shots. Making strokes is made possible by the true bounce, which encourages high-scoring games. The outfield of the stadium is usually fast, which aids the batsmen in accumulating runs more quickly. When boundaries are relatively close together, batsmen may target the fence more frequently.</p>

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

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

<p><strong>ICC Champions Trophy 2025: </strong>As the days go by, the buzz around speculations and predictions continues to intensify. For Team India, squad predictions have become a hot topic of discussion, sparking debates everywhere—from cricket fanatics on social media to casual conversations on the streets. Amid this growing excitement, one key question stands out: who will don the wicketkeeping gloves for India in the highly anticipated ICC Champions Trophy 2025?</p>
<p>With numerous cricket experts and pundits making bold predictions about India's squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, a common thread runs through most discussions: the inclusion of KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant, and Sanju Samson.</p>
<p>However, opinions are far from unanimous. While some former cricketers have opted to leave Rishabh Pant out of their squads, others argue for his inclusion at the expense of Sanju Samson, fueling a heated debate among fans and analysts alike. Let's discuss all three options one by one:</p>
<h2><strong>KL Rahul Frontrunner to Keep Wickets?</strong></h2>
<p><strong><img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_677fef7181149.jpg" alt=""></strong></p>
<p><strong>KL Rahul </strong>has made a compelling case to be India’s primary wicketkeeping option in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. Former India batting coach Sanjay Bangar praised Rahul’s ability to deliver consistently under pressure, highlighting his crucial contributions at No. 5 and his knack for scoring vital runs when the team needed them most.</p>
<p>Rahul’s reliability behind the stumps was further cemented by his record-breaking performance in the 2023 ODI World Cup. With 17 dismissals, including 16 catches and one stumping, he surpassed Rahul Dravid’s 2003 record for the most dismissals by an Indian wicketkeeper in a single World Cup edition.</p>
<p>These achievements underscore his dual efficiency with both the gloves and the bat, solidifying his place as a frontrunner for the role in high-stakes tournaments like the Champions Trophy.</p>
<h2><strong>Is Rishabh Pant Ready for ODI Format?</strong></h2>

<p><strong>Rishabh Pant </strong>has proven his mettle in the Test format, but his performances in white-ball cricket have been inconsistent, as highlighted by his ODI stats: 871 runs in 31 matches at an average of 33.50 and a strike rate of 106.21. Despite his potential, these numbers suggest he lacks the maturity required for high-pressure limited-overs cricket.</p>
<p>However, Pant’s wicketkeeping skills set him apart. Among the three contenders, he is the most agile and reliable behind the stumps, with quick reflexes, sharp accuracy, and adaptability to various conditions. While his batting in ODIs needs improvement, his exceptional glove work makes him a strong contender for a spot in the squad.</p>
<h2><strong>Can Sanju's Form Secure Him a Spot?</strong></h2>
<p><strong><img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_677ff4b73d5fc.jpg" alt=""></strong></p>
<p>Sanju Samson’s impressive ODI stats—510 runs in 16 matches at an average of 56.66 and a strike rate of 99.60—underscore his potential as a reliable wicketkeeper-batter. His ability to capitalize on limited opportunities, including a century and three fifties, makes him a strong contender for the squad.</p>
<p>Sanjay Bangar also stated, “You have to give a place to Sanju Samson because he averages above 50 in ODI cricket. Add to that, he is a man in form as well.”</p>
<p>When compared to Rishabh Pant, Samson’s batting stats are significantly better, highlighting his consistency in white-ball cricket. Moreover, Samson’s wicketkeeping skills are nearly on par with Pant’s, making him a well-rounded option. His current form further solidifies his chances of overtaking Pant in the race for the role.</p>
<h2><strong> Who Will Keep Wickets?</strong></h2>
<p>KL Rahul, with his record-breaking wicketkeeping performance in the 2023 ODI World Cup and consistent contributions as a batter, emerges as the frontrunner for India’s primary wicketkeeper role. Sanju Samson, backed by Sanjay Bangar for his stellar ODI average of 56.66 and solid form, is a strong contender for the backup spot.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, Rishabh Pant’s exceptional wicketkeeping skills and proven Test success make him a valuable asset, though his inconsistent white-ball batting leaves room for improvement. Together, these options reflect India’s enviable depth in the wicketkeeping department heading into the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.<strong><br></strong></p>
<p>The weight is on KL Rahul to be the first-choice wicketkeeper. Shreyas Iyer is fit and actively playing cricket to provide a good balance in the team and in his presence, KL Rahul would be the best option. Sanju Samson would be a better batter and wicketkeeper in the backup if we take Stats into account. Rishabh Pant might have to wait for a while in the white ball cricket.</p>

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

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

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

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

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

India to miss Jasprit Bumrah in ICC Champions Trophy 2025? Ace pacer to travel to New Zealand to undergo scans - Reports

<p>The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is just a month away, and the two-time champion, Australia, have been hit with a couple of massive injury-related blows. Star pacer Josh Hazlewood, who was ruled out of the recently concluded Border-Gavaskar Trophy, might not take part in the upcoming mega event, and now, there is another massive injury concern.</p>
<p>ODI captain Pat Cummins is likely to miss the coming event. This news has certainly hit the team and Australian fans, as the captain is a key member of the squad and has been nursing an ankle injury. His participation in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is hanging by a thin thread.</p>
<p>Notably, Australia are scheduled to tour Sri Lanka for two test matches ahead of the coming ICC event. Cummins has been rested, and Steve Smith has been given the captaincy duties for the upcoming series. Australia have already qualified for the World Test Championship final, which is why the coming tests don't hold much value and their result won't affect anything. Hence, Cricket Australia decided to give Cummins a rest.</p>
<h2>Pat Cummins might miss the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 due to an ankle injury</h2>
<p>The captain, Pat Cummins, played a crucial role in helping Australia win the much-awaited Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. He finished with the second-most wickets in the series after Jasprit Bumrah (32). Cummins took 25 wickets at an average of 21.36. He also scored 159 runs with the bat in this low-scoring series.</p>
<p>However, playing all five tests on the trot has seemed to have affected him, and the captain has sustained an ankle soreness. Meanwhile, the captain is on leave because of the birth of his second child, which was also one key reason for him missing the Sri Lanka tour. That's what George Bailey, the chief selector of Australia, also confirmed in one of his statements.</p>
<p>But the recent news has not just raised questions about his availablity but also his participation in the upcoming ICC Champions Trophy. He is set to undergo scans for his sore ankle. Bailey said, "<strong>We’ll have to wait and see when the scan comes back and see how it's tracking. There’s a little bit of work to do.”</strong></p>
<p>That indicates that the two-time Champions Trophy winner are in jeopardy. If Cummins couldn't make it in time, then Mitchell Marsh is likely to lead Australia in the mega event, which will begin on February 19. Australia are placed in Group B, and they will begin their campaign on February 22 against England.</p>
