PCB gave a big tension to ICC, this trick was used to call India to Pakistan for Champions Trophy
The Champions Trophy will be played under the hosting of Pakistan in 2025. Champions trophy 2025 (Image Credit- Twitter The ICC Champions Trophy will be played in 2025 under the hosting of Pakistan. A total of 8 teams will participate in this tournament. There is no clarity on whether the Indian team will go to Pakistan for this Champions Trophy or not. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has made it clear that the government will decide on playing in Pakistan. The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has been trying to convince the BCCI for a long time. However, PCB has now given up this tension and has adopted a new strategy. PCB has handed over the task of convincing India to come to Pakistan for the Champions Trophy to the International Cricket Council (ICC). Let us tell you that in the Asia Cup held last year under the hosting of PCB, India played all its matches in Sri Lanka on the basis of ‘hybrid model’. However, there is no clarity on whether the ‘hybrid model’ will be adopted in the Champions Trophy or not. Although the Champions Trophy budget was approved at the recent ICC meeting in Colombo, the schedule and format were not discussed. The ICC has kept supplementary expenses in its tournament budget to deal with any situation, including the possibility of the Indian team playing its matches outside Pakistan. This report came out regarding Champions Trophy According to media reports, a PCB source said, “The PCB has now done what was expected of it as the host of the Champions Trophy. It has submitted the draft schedule and format of the competition and has also submitted the budget for the competition.” He said, “Now it is up to the ICC how quickly they circulate, discuss and finalise the schedule of the Champions Trophy. The PCB has suggested in the draft schedule to host all the matches of India in Lahore including the semi-finals (if India qualifies) and the final.”
“I am not surprised…”- Ashish Nehra said on Hardik Pandya not getting the captaincy

(Photo Source: Getty Images) Former India fast bowler and Gujarat Titans head coach Ashish Nehra said that he is not surprised by the Indian team management’s decision not to appoint Hardik Pandya as the new T20 captain. Nehra said that he understands the thinking of chief selector Ajit Agarkar and newly appointed coach Gautam Gambhir in choosing Suryakumar Yadav as the new T20 captain. Hardik Pandya, who will lead India in T20 in 2023, was Rohit Sharma’s deputy in the victorious World Cup campaign in the USA and West Indies in June. While Hardik was expected to replace Rohit as T20 captain, later after Rohit’s retirement from T20, the BCCI announced Suryakumar as the new T20 captain for the upcoming three-match series in Sri Lanka. Ashish Nehra is not surprised by Hardik Pandya not being made captain Regarding Hardik not being made the captain, Ashish Nehra said, “No, I am not surprised. When it comes to cricket, such things keep happening. Yes, Hardik Pandya was the vice-captain in the World Cup, but at the same time, a new coach has also come. Every coach and every captain has different ideas. At this time, his (Gambhir’s) ideas are in the same direction.” The former Indian fast bowler further said, “I think Ajit Agarkar and Gautam Gambhir have made it clear, it is good. He is a format game There have been fewer ODIs game Hardik Pandya will continue to be a very important player for Indian cricket in white-ball cricket. When you have him, you can have 4 fast bowlers. He brings a different balance to the team and keep in mind, there is no more dominant player in international cricket. Not just Hardik Pandya, but when you have so many matches, there are changes. Even Rishabh Pant has captained, KL Rahul has also captained.

“It is good that he retired…” Who is Yogesh Patel who gave this statement about Rohit Sharma?
Rohit Sharma has joined MS Dhoni, Sourav Ganguly and Kapil Dev as one of the few Indian captains to win an ICC trophy. (Source X) Rohit Sharma couldn’t have ended his T20 career better than this. At the age of 37, Rohit gave himself two chances to win the ICC trophy last year, but he finished second both times. India finished runners-up in the ODI World Cup and the ICC World Test Championship. He could have ended his career without an ICC trophy. However, luck favoured him and Rohit led India to victory in the 2024 T20 World Cup and ended his trophy drought. In many knockout matches in the last 11 years, the team was knocked out of the knockout stage under extreme pressure, but this time Team India crossed the finish line. Rohit has become one of the Indian captains to win the ICC trophy along with MS Dhoni, Sourav Ganguly and Kapil Dev. Who is Yogesh Patel? 25 years ago, Rohit took admission in Swami Vivekananda International School. The school’s director Yogesh Patel gave Rohit a freeship so that he could study in his school. Patel has given some statements in an exclusive interview to India Today. A memorable ending for Rohit Sharma Needless to say, Rohit was nearing the end of his career. But his decision to retire from T20 came as a surprise to many. He had scored 257 runs in eight innings at an average of 36.71. His 92-run innings against Australia was specialespecially when he hit fours off Mitchell Starc. According to Patel, Rohit made the right decision to say goodbye to his T20 career. He said that instead of retiring under pressure due to other reasons, he made the right decision to retire in a grand manner. ‘Rohit knows what he has to do’ – Patel “It was a surprise and shock for us and the whole country because everyone wanted to see Rohit as captain; if not captain, then as a player. But when he announced his retirement, I felt it was a good decision because he was at the top. He is very smart, and he is also mature and talented. So, he knows what he has to do.” Will return in ODI format After winning the T20 World Cup, Rohit will be back to play for India in the ODI series against Sri Lanka in July. If Rohit is to win another ICC trophy, he will have to wait for about 12 more months, provided India reach the WTC final. The ODI World Cup seems a bit far-fetched as Rohit will be past 40 by then. But regardless of the results, Rohit will go down as one of India’s greatest captains.
Ajit Agarkar doubts Hardik Pandya’s captaincy ability, this is why he was stripped of the captaincy
According to a Hindustan Times report, BCCI chief selector, Ajit Agarkar was unsure about Pandya’s ability as a captain as he noted flaws in his captaincy with GT and MI in the IPL. Notably, the all-rounder was also named as India’s vice-captain for the World Cup 2023 and had to leave the tournament midway after getting injured in a match against Bangladesh. Gautam Gambhir is not sure about Hardik Pandya’s bowling in ODI format However, he has captained India in 16 T20Is and three ODIs when permanent skipper Rohit Sharma was not available. The 30-year-old sought a break from the upcoming white-ball tour after a tough T20 World Cup campaign but the management turned down the request. He has been included in the T20I squad and earlier, head coach, Gautam Gambhir reportedly expected the cricketer to prove his bowling fitness to stay in the ODI format. Gambhir had expressed uncertainty about Pandya’s fitness to bowl 10 overs in ODIs and asked the right-arm pacer to play in the Vijay Hazare Trophy. Mumbai Indians’ new captain Hardik Pandya has not played any ODIs since the World Cup 2023 and has also not been included in the 50-over squad for the Sri Lanka tour. India will play three ODIs and as many T20Is against Sri Lanka, with the first T20I starting on July 27. To everyone’s surprise, BCCI has dropped Ruturaj Gaikwad and Abhishek Sharma from any format for the Sri Lanka tour and Riyan Parag is part of both squads.
