  • Bangladeshi legend played his last test match on Indian soil, Virat Kohli gave this special gift

    Virat Kohli gives special gift to Shakib: The Indian team captained by Rohit Sharma defeated Bangladesh by seven wickets in the second Test match and with this won the two-match Test series 2-0. After winning the match, Team India’s star batsman Virat Kohli gifted a bat with his signature to the visiting team’s soon-to-retire all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan, which is being discussed a lot.

    Let us tell you that after India won by seven wickets, Kohli moved towards the Bangladesh team and presented his bat to the greatest cricketer of Bangladesh. The two were seen greeting each other and laughing, while Shakib did ‘shadow driving’ with the bat.

    Shakib is accused of murder

    Shakib, who is playing his last Test on Indian soil, has already made it clear that he will not play in the home series against South Africa unless the current caretaker government of Bangladesh gives him assurance of no hindrance in leaving the country. Doesn’t give. Actually, he said this because Shakib is accused of murder in Bangladesh, which was imposed at a time when there was civil unrest in the country and former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina had to step down. After this a new government was formed in Bangladesh.

    The current government of Bangladesh is not keen on giving Shakib a farewell match, and the current president of the Bangladesh Cricket Board, Farooq Ahmed, says that his organization is not a security agency. In such a situation, Kanpur Test could be Shakib’s 71st and last Test match.

    Shakib has played 71 matches in IPL

    Shakib Al Hasan is a popular cricketer in India, who has played 71 IPL matches. He mainly played for Kolkata Knight Riders and some matches for Sunrisers Hyderabad. So far, he has scored 793 runs in 71 IPL matches and taken 63 wickets. Let us tell you that Shakib currently lives in America.

  • Will Focus On Safety Rather Than Thinking About Winning: Bangladesh’s Miraz Ahead Of Day 5 Test Vs India | cricket news

    Bangladesh spinner Mehidy Hasan Miraz on Monday indicated that his side will not play aggressive cricket like India, and rather adopt a safety-first approach on the fifth and final day of the second Test.

    Bangladesh are trailing India by 26 runs and have eight wickets in hand, going into the final day on Tuesday.

    India batters went hammer and tongs to polish off Bangladesh’s first innings total and even took a handy 52-run lead.

    “Given the current situation, we will prioritize our safety first. We will try to bat as long as possible, which will be good for us and the team,” Miraz said at the post-day media interaction.

    “Playing to win requires a lot of time. If we bat and set a target, we then have to take 10 wickets again. For now, it’s essential to focus on our safety rather than just thinking about winning,” he added.

    Miraz, who took four wickets in India’s first innings, said they were a bit rattled by the way Rohit Sharma and other batters came out all guns blazing.

    “The wicket was a bit slow; the ball was keeping low. At times, there was extra bounce. They came with an aggressive mentality, which made it a bit difficult for us. In ODIs and T20s, there’s a set time frame. We have tried to get them out, and we’ll see what happens tomorrow.”

    He lamented that Bangladeshi batters did not support Mominul Haque, who scored an unbeaten century, but was left stranded at one end.

    “The first innings is very important in Test cricket. Mominul bhai played really well, but we couldn’t provide him the support he needed from our side.

    “If we had been able to support him better, the game might have turned out differently.”

    Miraz was hopeful that they would save the game on the final day.

    “In Test cricket, anything is possible. We haven’t completely lost yet. We’ve won many matches under similar circumstances before and have done well. There’s still an opportunity for us. The wicket is good.

    “It will be challenging, but I believe if we can form a solid partnership and bat responsibly for a session, it will be a positive outcome for us. We still have tomorrow. Let’s not think negatively just yet.”

    He admitted that it was a unique experience for him where so much time was lost in a Test and still a decisive result was possible.

    “There are many situations in Test cricket. It hasn’t rained for two days before this match. For me, this situation has definitely never happened before. There’s certainly a lot to learn from this match, and we have learned.”

  • BCCI Secretary Jay Shah Announces Additional Rs 7.5 Lakh Match Fee For Players Ahead Of IPL 2025 | cricket news

    On September 28, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced that players participating in the Indian Premier League (IPL) will now earn a match fee of Rs 7.5 lakhs per game. BCCI Secretary Jay Shah shared the update on X, stating that each IPL franchise will set aside Rs 12.60 crore as match fees for the entire season. This will be in addition to the compensation players receive under their individual contracts.

    “In a historic move to celebrate consistency and champion outstanding performances in the #IPL, we are thrilled to introduce a match fee of INR 7.5 lakhs per game for our cricketers! A cricketer playing all league matches in a season will get Rs. 1.05 crores in addition to his contracted amount. Each franchise will allocate INR 12.60 crores as match fees for the season! This is a new era for the #IPL and our players!” Shah posted on

    The upcoming IPL 2025 auction is set to allow each of the ten franchises to retain five players, along with the option to use one Right-to-Match (RTM) card, as reported by ESPNcricinfo. The IPL governing council is expected to finalize these retention rules soon, ahead of the much-anticipated mega auction. (‘To All CSK Fans…’: Dwayne Bravo’s Special Message As He Joins KKR As Mentor Ahead Of IPL 2025)

    While the specifics regarding the number of Indian players that can be retained or any caps on overseas players have yet to be confirmed, discussions suggest that the overall player retention purse will be in the range of INR 120 crore. If approved, this 5+1 retention model would mark a historic high for the tournament, surpassing previous retention limits.

    During the 2017 mega auction for IPL 2018, teams were allowed five retentions but could use a combination of direct retentions and RTM cards, capped at three Indian players. The RTM card, which enables franchises to retain a player by matching the highest bid from another team during the auction, was removed prior to the 2022 mega auction.

    At that time, the eight existing franchises were permitted to retain a maximum of four players each, while the new franchises, Gujarat Titans and Lucknow Super Giants, could select three players from the remaining pool before the auction.

    The auction purse for 2022 was set at INR 90 crore, an increase from the previous season. As discussions continue, the IPL is reportedly considering holding the player auction in late November, but the retention rules have not yet been finalized.

    Earlier this year, during a meeting with team owners in Mumbai, the IPL had indicated that the rules would be shared by the end of August, but delays have occurred. The RTM card was a significant topic of discussion in the July meeting, with some franchises advocating for as many as eight RTMs. (IPL 2025: BCCI To Allow 5 Retentions Ahead Of Mega Auction – Report)

    However, there were opposing views, including from Sunrisers Hyderabad, whose owner, Kavya Maran, suggested a preference for seven RTMs while arguing against restrictions on player retention. Additionally, Delhi Capitals co-owner Parth Jindal expressed his opposition to retaining the Impact Player rule, which has allowed teams to field an extra batter or bowler and has contributed to record scoring in recent seasons.

    One noteworthy point discussed was the potential reintroduction of a rule categorizing capped Indian players who have retired from international cricket or have not played for five years as uncapped. If reinstated, this rule could enable Chennai Super Kings to retain their iconic former captain MS Dhoni as an uncapped player, thus strengthening their auction purse. Previously, uncapped player retention was priced at INR 3 crore in 2017 and increased to INR 4 crore in 2021. (With ANI Inputs)

  • India’s Pace Puzzle Against Bangladesh: Ex-India Star Wants THIS Pacer To Replace Jasprit Bumrah or Mohammed Siraj | cricket news

    Former India player Parthiv Patel thinks that the Indian team can try Yash Dayal in place of Jasprit Bumrah or Mohammed Siraj for the second Test against Bangladesh in Kanpur which is set to be played from Friday. Just before the Test series started, Indian skipper Rohit Sharma said that the workload management of their pacers will be supervised in between the packed schedule.

    Earlier, the Indian team won the first Test match against Bangladesh in Chennai by a huge margin of 280 runs.

    “This will be a great chance to see a left-armer. It has been a while since India had a left-arm seamer, so I feel if he gets the chance, it will be good. We will know. Yash Dayal has tremendous potential. So I don’t think there is harm in trying,” Parthiv Patel, who is an expert on JioCinema and Sports18 told ANI.

    Parthiv also talked about the two youngsters, Sarfaraz Khan and Dhruv Jurel. He feels that since Rishabh Pant and KL Rahul have returned to the Playing XI, it is difficult for the youngsters to seal their places.

    “I don’t think Sarfaraz and Dhruv will make a comeback to the side. Rishabh has just made a comeback. Both of them are very very talented players and very much ready for Test cricket. But they will have to wait for their chances, Parthiv added.

    Talking about the Indian team, they have already reached Kanpur to take part in the second Test against Bangladesh, starting from Friday, September 27.

    Squads:

    India: Rohit Sharma (C), Jasprit Bumrah, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Ravindra Jadeja, Rishabh Pant (WK), Akash Deep, Yash Dayal, Kuldeep Yadav, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Dhruv Jurel (WK), Sarfaraz Khan, Mohammed Siraj, Axar Patel, Ravichandran Ashwin, Shubman Gill.

    Bangladesh: Najmul Hossain Shanto (C), Shakib Al Hasan, Nahid Rana, Mominul Haque, Litton Kumer Das, Syed Khaled Ahmed, Mahmudul Hasan Joy, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Nayeem Hasan, Zakir Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim, Taskin Ahmed, Hasan Mahmud, Jaker Ali Anik, Taijul Islam, Shadman Islam.

  • Ind vs Ban Test Series: Can Kanpur test be cancelled? Before the second test, UP government declared it a ‘big threat’

    India vs Bangladesh 2nd Test: The upcoming Test match between India and Bangladesh at the Green Park Stadium in Kanpur could be in jeopardy due to security concerns. The Uttar Pradesh Public Works Department (PWD) has raised concerns over the structure of one of the stands in the stadium, due to which the Uttar Pradesh Cricket Association (UPCA) has restricted the sale of tickets.

    India and Bangladesh will play the second Test of their two-match series in Kanpur from September 27 to October 1. The match will be played at the city’s Green Park Stadium. The Indian cricket team has already arrived and will begin their practice soon.

    India lead the tournament 1-0 after their emphatic 280-run win in the first Test in Chennai last week. The Rohit Sharma-led side once again prevented Bangladesh from achieving their first Test win against India.

    According to the information, only 1,700 tickets will be sold for the 4,800-capacity stand as a precautionary measure. UPCA CEO Ankit Chatterjee confirmed that the PWD has identified some problems, and repair work will continue for the next few days. This decision prioritizes the safety of the fans.

    However, the stadium’s infrastructure and maintenance are being investigated following the latest reports on the dangerous stands. The stadium is owned by the Sports Department of the Uttar Pradesh government, and is not directly under the UPCA or BCCI.

    Floodlight concerns

    Another concern is the floodlights in the stadium, which can cause problems if poor lighting affects the game. India last played against New Zealand at the Green Park Stadium in November 2021, and poor visibility affected the final session of Day 5.

  • WATCH: Virat Kohli, Gautam Gambhir, Rishabh Pant Reach Kanpur Ahead Of IND Vs BAN 2nd Test | cricket news

    India’s head coach Gautam Gambhir, wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant, and star batter Virat Kohli arrived at the team hotel in Kanpur ahead of the team’s second Test against Bangladesh, beginning on Friday at the Green Park. On Tuesday, Pant, Kohli, and Gambhir were spotted outside the team hotel.

    Gambhir’s stint as the head coach in the Test format began on a triumphant note. In his first Test match as India’s head coach, the hosts cruised to a momentous 280-run victory at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.

    Pant announced his return to Test cricket with a stupendous 109-run knock in the second innings. His aggressive strokes combined with defensive display that made things difficult for Bangladesh bowlers, evoked a wave of nostalgia among the Indian fans. He made a promising start on his return in the first innings with 39 off 52 deliveries. He lost his wicket to in-form Hasan Mahmud.

    Kohli had a lean run with the bat in Chennai, hitting 6 and 17 in the two innings. He lost his wicket to Bangladesh pacer Hasan Mahmud and then to spinner Mehidy Hasan Miraz in the second innings.

    Ashwin was named the ‘Player of the Match’ in the first Test against Bangladesh. He played a crucial 113-run knock from 133 balls in the first inning.

    The 38-year-old bagged a six-wicket haul in the second inning, which helped India clinch a 280-run win on day four of the Chennai Test. Ashwin’s spell in the second inning marked his 37th five-wicket haul in Test cricket, tying him with legendary Australian spinner Shane Warne for the second-most five-wicket hauls in Test history. The only player ahead of Ashwin is Sri Lankan legend Muttiah Muralitharan, who has 67.

  • 6,6,6,6,6,6,6…Nicholas Pooran created a great record in T20 cricket, the first batsman in the world to do such a feat

    CPL 2024: The process of making and breaking records in cricket, the game of statistics, is going on continuously, but sometimes some such great records are also made, which are very difficult to break. In the Caribbean Premier League 2024, West Indies star batsman Nicholas Pooran has made such a great record in T20 cricket, which no batsman could do before in T20 cricket. Let us know about it in detail.

    Let us tell you that Nicholas Pooran’s bat is running very well in the Caribbean Premier League at this time. A match-winning innings was also seen from his bat in the match played against St. Kitts and Nevis Patriot. During this innings, Nicholas Pooran played a brilliant innings of 93 runs in 43 balls. During this innings, he hit 6 fours and 7 sixes. It is because of him that the Trinbago Knight Riders team was successful in winning the match. The special thing was that he did not get out till the end.

    Puran made this great record

    It is worth noting that before the year 2024, the world record for most T20 sixes in a calendar year was registered in the name of Caribbean batsman and Universe Boss, Chris Gayle. Gayle hit 135 sixes in 2015. Nicholas Pooran has broken this record of Gayle after nine years. In the match against St. Kitts and Nevis, he hit seven sixes and touched the magical figure of 150 sixes in a year in T20 cricket, which no one has ever been able to do before him. In such a situation, there is no doubt in saying that Pooran has become the new sixer king of the present time.

    Top 4 batsmen who hit the most sixes are from the Caribbean

    Talking about the batsmen who have hit the most sixes in the history of T20 cricket, Chris Gayle is at the top of this list. Chris Gayle has hit a total of 1056 sixes between 2005 and 2022. Kieron Pollard is at number two in this list, who has hit a total of 892 sixes so far. Andre Russell is at number three in this list, who has hit a total of 709 sixes. After this comes the name of Puran, who now has a total of 563 sixes in his account. The top-4 batsmen who have hit the most sixes in T20 cricket are Caribbean, and the biggest reason for this is that Caribbean players take the most part in different T20 leagues around the world.

  • Babar Azam, Shan Masood Among Senior Players To Attend PCB Workshop On Pakistan Cricket’s Future | cricket news

    Captains Babar Azam and Shan Masood, along with other senior players, will attend a day-long workshop on Monday, convened by the PCB to outline the future vision for Pakistan cricket. The Pakistan Cricket Board has named the day-long workshop the “Strategic Connection Camp,” to be held at a local hotel. Along with captains Babar Azam and Shan Masood, senior players Fakhar Zaman, Mohammad Rizwan, Saim Ayub, Salman Ali Agha, Saud Shakeel, Shadab Khan, and Shaheen Shah Afridi will be in attendance.

    The meeting will also be joined by national team head coaches Jason Gillespie and Gary Kirsten, assistant coach Azhar Mahmood, and High Performance specialist David Reid. (WTC Points Table 2023-25: India Tightens Grip On No. 1 Spot After 280 Run Victory, Bangladesh Slips To 6th Position)

    “We aim to identify key issues, foster open dialogue and collectively agree on a strategic path forward to successfully reshape Pakistan cricket.” PCB chief Mohsin Naqvi said in a statement.

    “The Connection Camp is a critical step toward unifying our approach to restore Pakistan cricket to its former glory. Our aim is to identify key issues, foster open dialogue and collectively agree on a strategic path forward. The PCB remains optimistic that this session, which builds on prior discussions with former cricketers, will lead to a results-driven strategy that improves both player management and team performance.”

    Pakistan Test captain Masood said the session will focus on setting performance benchmarks, developing player development programs, and formulating strategies to enhance grassroots cricket.

    Red-ball head coach Jason Gillespie and white-ball coach Gary Kirsten have also expressed optimism that the meeting will be beneficial.

    “We’re all striving toward the same goal – raising the standard of Pakistan cricket and creating a culture of winning.” Gillispie said. (‘Pakistan Samjhe The Kya,’ Fans Can’t Keep Calm After Team India Crushes Bangladesh In 1st Test)

    Kirsten said the focus is on refining the approach to white-ball cricket, building a team that can consistently perform at the highest level and bringing joy to the fans who support them. The PCB leadership group will also attend the meeting besides the national selectors.

    This is not the first time the PCB is hosting such a meeting/workshop as in the past also previous Chairmen have followed the same path in a bid to identify key issues in Pakistan cricket and to reach a consensus on a strategic path forward. Unfortunately the success rate and outcome of such meetings has not been high.
