Bangladesh vs New Zealand: Bangladesh and New Zealand will play a pivotal Group A meet at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium on February 24 as the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 heats up. After defeating India, Bangladesh needs a win to remain in the running, while New Zealand, having just defeated Pakistan, will try to continue their dominance. BAN vs NZ 6th Match Details Match: Bangladesh vs New Zealand, ICC Champions Trophy 2025 Date: Monday, February 26, 2025 Time: 3:30 PM IST | 10:00 AM GMT | 3:00 PM Local Time Venue: Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, Rawalpindi Bangladesh vs New Zealand Predicted Playing XI Bangladesh: Tanzid Hasan, Soumya Sarkar, Najmul Hossain Shanto (c), Jaker Ali (wk), Towhid Hridoy, Mushfiqur Rahim, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Taskin Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman, Rishad Hossain, and Nahid Rana New Zealand: Mitchell Santner (c), Tom Latham (wk), Will Young, Devon Conway, Kane Williamson, Glenn Phillips, Daryl Mitchell, Michael Bracewell, Matt Henry, Nathan Smith, and William O'Rourke Bangladesh vs New Zealand Prediction: Who will Win CT 2025 Match? New Zealand's recent performance puts them as the match's favorites. In addition to their bowling attack, which includes Matt Henry and spinners Santner and Sodhi, being efficient in subcontinental conditions, their top order, which is supported by Latham and Young, is in superb form. Though it might help seamers early on, the Rawalpindi pitch is anticipated to be batting-friendly. The outcome of the match and team play may be impacted by cloudy situations with chances for rain. Bangladesh needs to win this match, while Pakistan also needs to win. Both of them will be disqualified from the 2025 Champions Trophy if the Blackcaps win. Despite their ability to outperform their opponents, Najmul Shanto and his squad have struggled recently. The Asian team will need to perform at their highest level to win because of New Zealand's squad's adaptability. Bangladesh could pose a threat, but New Zealand is the cle

MI New York had one of the most amazing comebacks in franchise T20 history. After losing six of their first seven games this season. They won the 2025 Major League Cricket (MLC) title with a five-run win over reigning champions Washington Freedom at the Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas. Freedom was chasing 181 and required 12 runs from the last over. Which was bowled by Rushil Ugarkar, 22, with captain Glenn Maxwell and a composed Glenn Phillips at the crease. After Maxwell hit a single off the first ball, Phillips hit another one. Then Maxwell missed the third ball with a strong swipe. Maxwell tried to slog over midwicket with 10 needed off 3. But mistimed the ball high over long-on, where Michael Bracewell caught it. Freedom needed 10 runs off the last ball as new hitter Obus Pienaar swung and did not work at the fifth delivery, finally capping MINY's incredible comeback. Freedom's run-chase got off to a terrible start. When they lost Mitchell Owen and Andries Gous to Trent Boult in the first over and were struggling at 0 for 2 before Rachin Ravindra and Jack Edwards' 84-run partnership steadied the innings. With 70 off 41 balls, including 8 fours and 2 sixes, Ravindra led the way, while Edwards added 33 off 22. In the ninth over, Edwards was caught at long-on by Nosthush Kenjige, ending the partnership. MI New York Ravindra and Glenn Phillips (48 not out) added 46 more runs. But MINY took back control as Ravindra was dismissed by Rushil Ugarkar in the 16th over. After slicing a wide slower ball to extra cover. Boult let up just 12 runs in the 19th over. Leaving 12 needed from the final over, in which a composed Ugarkar easily defended the runs. Phillips kept Washington in the chase with two sixes off Tristan Luus in the 18th over. Earlier in the day, Quinton de Kock formed a 72-run opening partnership with Monank Patel, who hit 28 off 22 balls before mistiming a Lockie Ferguson delivery to cover. Kock top-scored with a fluid 46-ball 77 that included six four
