India's talismanic pacer Jasprit Bumrah reflected on his battle with Australian debutant Sam Konstas during the Melbourne Test, admitting that he felt he could have dismissed the young Aussie.

After months of anticipation and excitement, the International Cricket Council announced the dates for the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy on Tuesday.

Kapil Dev was seen at a private event, which was organised by the Adani Group in Ahmedabad, where he praised Adani Group chairman, Gautam Adani.

The swashbuckling left-hander made 446 runs at an average of 40.54 and a strike-rate of 155.40 while claiming a joint-high 16 dismissals with the gloves during the most recent India Premier League season.

Whilst picking an unchanged group for the playing squad from their preliminary list, Jake Fraser-McGurk and Matt Short will accompany the squad as reserves.

RCB is in fourth place with seven wins and seven losses, with 14 points. CSK is in the fifth spot with seven wins and seven losses, but they have slid down to fifth due to a lower net-run rate.

The hosts had a stupendous start while chasing a 215-run target but after the end of the fourth over, rain played a spoilsport for which the game was halted for a few minutes

Earlier in the first innings, the Men in Green skipper Babar Azam won the toss and put the hosts to bat first.

Rahul's decision to bowl after winning the toss backfired quickly as Sunil Narine went all guns blazing against the LSG bowling unit.

Orthodox spinner and skipper Saad will bring a wealth of experience to the squad, with batter Aaron Johnson and pacer Kaleem Sana also likely to take part in the side, where just four players are under the age of 30.
