The 5th &amp; Final Test-Match in Sydney between Fierce-Rivals Australia and India ended today and the home team secured an easy six-wicket win and this win allowed them to secure the series by 3-1.This win of the Aussies has also made some significant changes in the overall standings of the 2023-25 World Test Championship (WTC) cycle. 
Talking about the contest, the Jasprit Bumrah-led team were at 124-4 in their 2nd inning and they were looking set to set a big target for the Pat Cummins-led team. However, the Australian bowlers were in deadly mood as their perfect bowling display led to Team India suffering a batting collapse and they lost wickets in quick succession and eventually got bundled out for a mere score of 157 runs. 
Wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant fought the lone warrior's battle as he played an impressive inning of 61 runs in just 33 deliveries but he didn't get any kind of support from his fellow batters at the other end and the Kangaroos took full advantage of this and eventually the game turned in the favour of the Defending Champions. 
For the Australian team, Scott Boland took 6 wickets while giving away 45 runs while skipper Pat Cummins also played a good hand with figures of 3-44 next to his name. 
The Aussies were given a target of 162 runs to win the Sydney Test-Match but they lost wickets unnecessarily as Sam Konstas (22 runs in 17 deliveries), Marnus Labuschagne (6 runs in 20 deliveries), and Steve Smith (4 runs in 9 balls) went back to the pavilion cheaply, leaving the Australian team suddenly in a dire position of 58/3.
Next, opening batter Usman Khawaja played a good knock of 41 runs in 45 deliveries which allowed his team to initiate a comeback in the contest. If Bumrah wouldn't have got injured, then Khawaja wouldn't even get the chance to go past the 10 runs mark. 
Without the availability of Bumrah, the Aussie batters started to play their shots freely and theu began creating a lot of pressure on the Indian bowling unit. While Prasidh Krishna did his best to help his team stay alive in the contest, he began to falter and this worked in the favour of the Australians. 
As a result, the duo of Beau Webster &amp; Travis Head got involved in a strong partnership for thethe fifth wicket and added 58 runs in just 53 balls and this turned out to be winning factor. They helped their team reach a score of 162-4 and the Kangaroos won the encounter by a margin of six wickets.
<h2>WTC Final Chance:</h2>
Pat Cummins-led Aussies have successfully qualified for the 2023-25 World Test Championship (WTC) Final after securing the BGT series 3-1. Temba Bavuma-led South Africa have already secured their tickets for the Final after defeating Pakistan in the first Test-Match. 
Keeping the statistics in mind, Team India have failed to qualify for the WTC Final for the first time since 2021. They are ranked third in the overall Standings with a PCT of 50. South Africa are the table toppers with a PCT of 66.67 while the Kangaroos are ranked 2nd with 63.73 PCT next to their name. They are followed by the likes of New Zealand (48.21) and Sri Lanka (45.45) respectively.

The attention has solely turned towards the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 after the bizarre outing for India in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. The ICC event will be played from 19th February to 9th March in a hybrid model, where India will be playing games in Dubai. 
The India squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 has been the major talking point as the tournament will be extremely crucial for the team. As per several media reports, it is learned that the BCCI will be naming the team next week as the deadline for squad announcement is on 12th January. 
With the deadline for squad announcement around the corner, the reports in RevSportz claimed that the India squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 will see young opener Yashasvi Jaiswal making a cut into the team. It is learned that he will be there as the third opener in the team in what will be a huge tournament. 
Yashasvi Jaiswal will serve as a cover for Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill, who will be the two front-line openers in the team. This no doubt indicates that with both the openers being under pressure and not scoring runs, there are chances that the left-hander might take their place. 
<h2>Yashasvi Jaiswal has been a regular member for India in the Tests as well as the T20Is</h2>
Yashasvi Jaiswal has been a regular member for India in the Tests as well as the T20Is. The opening batter, however, is yet to make his debut in the ODIs. The left-hander has a great FC record, and it won't be a surprise if he finds success in ODIs as well as he has done in the other two formats of the game. 
Rohit Sharma has been under the pump for his poor outings of late. He failed badly in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 as he scored just 31 runs around an average of just 6. The upcoming ICC Champions Trophy 2025 will be a great opportunity for him to turn around things and make a return to form. 
Rohit Sharma will be leading the team in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. It was under his leadership that India won the T20 World Cup 2024 and ended their ICC title drought. He would be hoping to emulate something similar in the Champions Trophy and reply to all his critics in style.

ICC Champions Trophy 2025: Rohit Sharma's career under danger! BCCI wants Yashasvi Jaiswal in the squad

The crowd at the Sydney Cricket Ground has always been under the scanner, especially when the Indian team plays. During the last Border-Gavaskar Trophy, the fans in Sydney didn't go easy on the Indian players as they made life tough for them. 
During the last Test between India and Australia, Indian players in Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj were at the receiving end of racial slurs. The players of the team were abused by the fans, and it turned out to be a big controversy, with Sydney Cricket management banning the particular section of the ground. 
A similar kind of thing unfolded on Day 1 of the ongoing match between India and Australia. Again, a particular section of the crowd came under the radar. The fans were abusing Indian fans in the stadium as they were seen chanting, "Where is your visa?". The video went viral on the internet with many lashing out at fans. 
The people at the Sydney Cricket Ground were also seen booing Indian players as well. They had a go at Virat Kohli and then later Jasprit Bumrah, who was involved in a massive fight with Sam Konstas during the last over of Day 1 of the ongoing Test match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. 
Coming to the match, Australia started the last day of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 on a dominating note. The visitors carried their good form and put India under massive pressure at the Sydney Cricket Ground in Sydney. The start with the bat didn't go the way India would've wanted as both the openers, KL Rahul and Yashasvi Jaiswal, were back early. Shubman Gill, who replaced Rohit Sharma, played a decent hand of 20 runs off 64 balls with two boundaries. 
He, along with Virat Kohli (17), added 40 runs for the third wicket. But both the batters couldn't bat for long as India was left tottering at 72 for four. Rishabh Pant (40) batted with great grit and looked solid before he yet again perished to a wild shot. Ravindra Jadeja (26), too, had a start, but he too couldn't get going for long as India was reduced to 148/8. Captain Jasprit Bumrah (22) hit some shots in the end and took the team to a total of 185. 
Australia, in response, lost Usman Khawaja as Jasprit Bumrah bagged his 31st wicket of the series. At stumps, Australia was 9 for one with 176 runs behind.

India fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah's fitness is one of the trending topics in Indian cricket. The speedster experienced back spasms during the last Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25, which took place at the Sydney Cricket Ground in Sydney. 
After bowling just 10 overs in the first innings in Sydney, Jasprit Bumrah walked off the field and underwent scans. He didn't take the field again as India was without their captain in the last innings of the match. This no doubt cost India but also sent a sense of scare among the Indian fans. 
Jasprit Bumrah didn't look in great shape either, and now his fitness has raised massive concerns over his availability for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. This is because there is no clarity over the seriousness of the injury that the premier fast bowler has faced in his back during the match. 
As per the reports in Sports Tak, it is learned that Jasprit Bumrah will be consulting a personal doctor as well along with the BCCI medical team. The fast bowler will be having a chat with the doctor in New Zealand who operated on him during the back surgery he faced in 2022. 
It is learned once Jasprit Bumrah meets that doctor, there will be a lot of clarity over his injury. It will be the doctor only who will be deciding what the fast bowler has to do to return to action. This raises a lot of concern over his fitness, especially with big events like the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. 
<h2>Jasprit Bumrah is all set to be rested for the three-match ODI series against England.</h2>
Bumrah is all set to be rested for the three-match ODI series against England. This is because BCCI wanted the fast bowler to be fit and be at 100% for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. If the pacer remains unfit for the tournament, it will turn out to be a big blow for the team. 
The pain in the back for Jasprit Bumrah arises due to his workload in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. The fast bowler bowled 151 overs in the five games and picked 32 wickets. He gave his best for the side but ended up on the wrong side of the result. However, more than that his fitness was the main concern. 
Bumrah is very unlikely to play any T20I game this year, meaning that he won't be part of the T20I series against England. Another section of the reports added that he might play one ODI against Three Lions to get into the rhythm for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.

India spinner Varun Chakravarthy is in contention to be picked in the Indian squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. As per the reports in RevSportz, it is learned that the BCCI has asked the selectors to keep an eye on the Kolkata Knight Riders spinner. 
Varun Chakravarthy has impressed the selectors and the BCCI with the way he made his comeback in the Indian setup after the IPL 2024. The mystery spinner set the stage on fire with the ball in the T20Is against Bangladesh as well as South Africa. 
In both series, Varun Chakravarthy turned out to be the game-changer for India. The mystery spinner helped India win both the series and was the key performer for the team. He was applauded a lot by fans and pundits for the way he made a comeback to India. 
The BCCI reportedly has told one of the selectors to watch the fitness, moments and progress of Varun Chakravarthy, who is playing in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024-25. The India spinner has been shining with the ball in the domestic tournament, making his case strong for the team. 
Varun Chakravarthy is making strong performances for Tamil Nadu in the ongoing Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024-25. The spinner has taken 13 wickets at an average of 13.62 in the tournament so far, and with the way he is going strong, he surely would've taken the interest of selectors. 
<h2>The Indian team for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is all set to be announced next week</h2>
The Indian team for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is all set to be announced next week. Before the tournament, India will be taking on England in the three-match ODI series. There are chances that Varun might be picked for that series. 
The mystery spinner is yet to make his debut for India in the ODIs. But with the kind of form he is going through, there are high chances that he might be picked in the England series and might even play in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.

The Australian Cricket Team, under the leadership of Pat Cummins successfully defeated Team India in the Sydney Test-Match by a margin of six wickets and this wicket helped them to seal the 2024-25 Border-Gavaskar Trophy series by 3-1.
While the Aussie players are going to be really happy with this series win, the Indians on the other hand, are facing a lot of criticism following the series defeat especially the Indian batters. Senior players like Virat Kohli are the main targets of the critics. 
In the 2024-25 Border-Gavaskar Trophy series, Kohli got dismissed on the outside off-stump line eight times and versus the Aussie bowlers, the former Indian skipper looked helpless &amp; cluseless versus the them. Now, AB De Villiers, the South African legend has made a huge revelation regarding how the former Indian and RCB skipper can tackle the outside off-stump deliveries.
<h2>'Every Batsman in the world struggles with some weakness'</h2>
AB De Villiers said, "He (Virat) can definitely find a solution to the the outside off-stump deliveries. Every batsman out there has a weakness and if I talk about myself, then the deliveries which used to come towards the pads in a straight line used to trouble me a lot. But I learnt from it and scored a lot of runs in the remainder of my career. 
I still remember the Test-Series versus England (ENG). The series kicked off on a positive note and I scored good amount of runs in the Durban Test-Match and everything was going smoothly. But, then the duo of Stuart Broad and James Anderson started dismissing me on a successive note and especially, with the new ball, I got out constantly".
<h2>What's the solution to the problem of Virat Kohli? </h2>
AB de Villiers believes that old balls keep running in the mind of the 36-year-old, which automatically affects the next forthcoming delivery. What happened before on the previous ball doesn't matter... He (Virat) should play every ball like a new and fresh one, he should just forget thinking about the previous deliveries. If finds success in doing this properly, then he can play the outside off-stump deliveries in a much better way.

India batter Virat Kohli has been at the receiving end of heavy criticism after his failures in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. The batter looked torrid with the bat in the majority of the series and there have been calls related to his retirement as well. 
Virat Kohli, who hit a century in the first Test, looked absolutely torrid with the bat in the rest of the games of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. The premier batter was troubled by the balls outside off stump as it brought his downfall in almost every match of the five-match Test series. 
When Virat Kohli hit a century in Perth, it was expected that he would have a breakthrough series and would be setting the stage on fire. But that wasn't the case, as, after the ton in the opening match, he failed in the entire series and ended up getting just around 90 runs in the rest of the games. 
Since 2020, Virat Kohli has looked extremely torrid with the bat and has been averaging just in the 20s. This has seen him getting a lot of criticism for his poor outings. Many fans and experts have lashed out at him for his poor performances and hence they want him to make way for youngster. 
One of the heavy criticism came from Irfan Pathan, who pointed out the batter's poor average, saying that Virat Kohli averaged just 15 in the first innings of the Test. He said that the players with these low averages don't deserve a place in the Indian Team. 
<h2>He has made a lot of runs, but in 2024, batting in the first innings where you set up the match, Kohli averages just 15 - Irfan Pathan</h2>
Irfan Pathan added that it's time for Virat Kohli to make way for youngsters and that even young players will maintain a batting average of 25-30. Speaking to Star Sports, he explained: 
"He has made a lot of runs, but in 2024, batting in the first innings where you set up the match, Kohli averages just 15. If we take out his stats for the last five years, he barely averages 30. Does the Indian team deserve that from its senior player? It's better to give a youngster a long run, tell him to get ready; even that guy will maintain a batting average of 25-30." 
India's next Test series will be against England. It remains to be seen if he will be part of the series or not.

In what has been the latest development as per the reports in RevSportz, it is learned that BCCI is all set to take a meeting on the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The officials of the governing body will be meeting on Monday (6th January) to discuss crucial things. 
The reports claimed that there is no doubt that Rohit Sharma will be captaining the Indian team in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. Of late, some reports claimed that Rohit's captaincy has come under scanner after the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25, and there are chances that Hardik Pandya might lead the team in the tournament. 
The reports also added that Rishabh Pant will be a sure-shot pick in the Indian team for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The keeper-batter has often come under the scanner for his poor performances with the bat in ODIs, and there also have been a lot of concerns about his place in the team for the 50-over format. 
<h2>BCCI officials will be having discussions over the place of Arshdeep Singh in the team</h2>
The reports also added that BCCI officials will be having discussions over the place of Arshdeep Singh in the team. The left-arm pacer played a massive role in India winning the ICC T20 World Cup 2024, as he was the leading wicket-taker for the team in the tournament. 
The BCCI also has done a few short meetings to see the combination, and the final decision will be taken tomorrow. The Indian squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is all set to be announced on 11th January as ICC has kept the deadline for 12th January. 
The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 will be the first tournament for India after they won the ICC T20 World 2024. The tournament is all set to be played from 19th February, with India playing all their games in Dubai while the rest of the matches will be played across three venues in Pakistan. 
India will play their first game against Bangladesh on 20th February and will be against Pakistan on 23rd February. Their last league game will be against New Zealand, and if they manage to win two games, they might play the semi-final as well. 
With India losing the Border-Gavaskar Trophy badly, they will be under massive radar to win the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. It will be a crucial tournament for Rohit Sharma as it might decide his future.

ICC Champions Trophy 2025: Rohit Sharma, Rishabh Pant future's in jeopardy? BCCI all set to meet on 6th January

icc-champions-trophy-2025-rohit-sharma-rishabh-pant-future-s-in-jeopardy-bcci-all-set-to-meet-on-6th-january-

India head coach Gautam Gambhir talked about the future of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli in Test cricket after their poor performances in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. He said that he could mirror comments on the future of the players, and it would be their call. 
The future of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli in the Tests has become a hot topic in Indian cricket, especially after the team's loss in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. The Rohit Sharma-led side was at the receiving end of a 3-1 thrashing at the hands of the Pat Cummins-led side in the five-match series. 
One of the major reasons behind the loss of the India team was the poor form of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. Both the stalwarts of the Indian team looked torrid with the bat in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 as they bagged low scores. 
Virat Kohli started the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 on a high as he slammed a solid century. It was expected that he would go on to have a big series but that wasn't the case. After that ton, he struggled badly and could manage just around 190 runs. 
On the other hand, Rohit Sharma arguably had the worst Test series of his career. The captain scored just 31 runs in the series and even was below par with his leadership. This also saw him dropping himself for the last match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 in Sydney owing to the poor form.
With the series loss, India also were eliminated from the race to reach the final of the ICC World Test Championship. Also, with the new cycle around the corner, there are massive questions about the future of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli in the longest format of the game. 
<h2>I can't comment on the future of any Players; It is up to them - Gautam Gambhir on future of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli</h2>
Head coach Gautam Gambhir was asked about the future of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, saying that he could not comment on the future of both players. He added that although both the players still have hunger and commitment, they have no immediate plan for the transition. Speaking to reporters, he said: 
"I can't comment on the future of any Players; It is up to them. They have the hunger and commitment - hopefully, they can do everything they can to take Indian cricket forward. Too early to talk about transition, don't know where we will be after five months." 
The next Tes series for India will be in England in June. It remains to be seen what will be the future of the Team in the Tests going forward.

ENGLAND Tour of India 2025: After the conclusion of the iconic Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024/25, Team India is set to host England for a white-ball series. The first home assignment of 2025 for India will feature five T20Is and three ODIs. 
India’s cricketing fortunes took a tumble in the recently concluded Border-Gavaskar Trophy, with a 3-1 series defeat to Australia. After four years of Indian dominance, the Aussies finally broke through, reclaiming the trophy in emphatic style.
A lackluster performance from India’s batting lineup, coupled with a struggling skipper Rohit Sharma, left much to be desired. Jasprit Bumrah stood tall as the lone warrior in the bowling department, but it wasn’t enough to turn the tide.
Now, as 2025 kicks off, India has a golden opportunity to turn things around. The upcoming home series against England in January couldn’t have come at a better time. With the ICC Champions Trophy also on the horizon later this year, it’s crucial for India’s star players to regain their form and confidence. This England tour isn’t just another bilateral series; it’s a stepping stone to redemption and preparation for the global stage.
Looking back at the history between these two sides in the white-ball format, India holds a slight edge. Out of 107 ODIs, India has emerged victorious 58 times, while England has won 44. In T20Is, the battle is even closer, with India winning 13 of the 24 matches and England taking 11. With such a competitive rivalry, fans can expect fireworks as India aims to make a strong statement ahead of the Champions Trophy.
For the 2025 series, England have announced the Squad for their India tour while India were waiting for the BGT to be over. Let's take a look at the ENGLAND tour of INDIA 2025 Schedule, Full Squads, TIming, Venues and All You Need To Know!
<h2>ENGLAND Tour of INDIA 2025 Schedule</h2>
England and India are scheduled to play a five-match T20I series starting on 22 January at Eden Gardens. The two teams will then head to Chennai, Rajkot, Pune, and at last Mumbai for the last match of the series.
