India, who have won three straight series under Suryakumar, beat England 1-0 in the Eden Gardens to take a 1-0 lead. First, Varun Chakravarthy showed off his skills with the ball once more by capturing 3/23 as the bowlers held the visitors to a below-average score of just 132. Arshdeep, Hardik, and Axar each claimed two wickets. While no other English batsman scored more than 17, Buttler led England in a lone battle with 68. Abhishek Sharma, the youthful opener, hammered 79 runs off 34 balls with five fours and eight sixes, making the chase easy.

South Africa defeated Australia by five wickets in the first semi-final and secured their spot in the Women's Under-19 T20 World Cup final for the first time thanks to a four-wicket haul from Ashleigh van Wyk and a blistering 24-ball 37 from opener Jemma Botha. Australia chose to play in sunny Kuala Lumpur, and they were immediately at a disadvantage when quick bowler Nthabiseng Nini trapped Ines McKeon leg before wicket on the opening delivery. At the bowler's end, skipper Lucy Hamilton's punch bounced off Nini's fingers onto the non-striker's stumps, and Grace Lyons, who had been promoted up the order, was run out after backing up too far. The South African bowlers, Hamilton and Caoimhe Bray, were cautious and stuck to a wicket-to-wicket line. Only halfway through the fifth over did Australia score their first boundary, but Hamilton soon added a couple more off Nini. Then South Africa's skipper, Kayla Reyneke, missed a sweep and hit in her opening over, putting her opposite number in front of the stumps. Australia failed to score a boundary in 7.3 overs while South Africa put on a spin strangle. In 47 balls, Bray and Eleanor Larosa combined for 27 runs for the fourth wicket. After Larosa was dismissed by a spectacular return catch by Seshnie Naidu, van Wyk took charge and destroyed the Australia lower middle order, taking four wickets in three overs. For Australia to reach 105 for 8 on a strong batting strip, Ella Briscoe's undefeated 17-ball 27 was essential. It wasn't anticipated that South Africa's pursuit would be easy against an Australian attack that hadn't given up more than 100 points during the tournament. But Botha wasted little time. Botha started out by hitting back-to-back fours against Larosa in the opening over, batting far down the track to nullify any movement. A Chloe Ainsworth in-ducker quickly defeated Simone Lorens, who also began with a four. However, Botha was unstoppable. South Africa quickly reached 50 for 2 in six overs thanks to he

The Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have appointed former Indian All-rounder S Sriram as their assistant bowling coach in anticipation of the 2025 Indian Premier League. At CSK, Sriram becomes part of a coaching staff that includes bowling consultant Eric Simons, batting coach Mike Hussey, and head coach Stephen Fleming. Sriram provides a plethora of coaching knowledge from a variety of coaching levels. He essentially takes Dwayne Bravo's place at CSK, since the former joined the reigning champion Kolkata Knight Riders as a mentor. In order to concentrate on his job with Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), he gave up his position as Australia's assistant coach in 2016 and departed it in 2022. Prior to the Asia Cup and T20 World Cup, Sriram was also named Bangladesh's T20 consultant in August 2022. He returned to Bangladesh, this time as a technical consultant, prior to the ODI World Cup, and joined the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in September 2023 as assistant coach for the 2024 Indian Premier League. R Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, Shreyas Gopal, and Noor Ahmad are the front-line spinners in CSK's IPL 2025 lineup, while Deepak Hooda and Rachin Ravindra are all-around spin bowlers. Last year, CSK finished fifth with seven wins and as many losses in the 14 group games, missing out on playoff qualification. Despite being tied with fourth-place RCB on 14 points, CSK just missed qualifying for the final four due to their lower net run rate. The IPL 2025 season starts on March 22, with the defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) playing RCB in Kolkata. The next evening, CSK plays their opening match at home against the Mumbai Indians (MI).

Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) will play the Mumbai Indians (MI) in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 match number 41 at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. In their most recent game, Sunrisers Hyderabad lost by four wickets to the Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium. As of right now, they have won two and lost five of their seven games. The Mumbai Indians beat the Chennai Super Kings by nine wickets in their most recent game. In their eight games thus far, they have won four and lost four. Match Details: Match: Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Mumbai Indians Event: 41st Match, IPL 2025 Date: Wednesday, April 23 Time: 7:30PM IST Venue: Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium Pitch Report: The batting pitch at Hyderabad's Rajiv Gandhi Stadium is decent. Teams may score large runs on it because it is flat. Here in the IPL 2025, the average score in the first innings is more than 200. Sunrisers Hyderabad's 286/6 record is the highest to date. Particularly on the powerplay, batters do well in the early overs. Bowlers who bowl fast and spin begin to receive some help as the game advances. SRH vs MI Head-to-Head Record: Total Matches: 24 MI Wins: 14 SRH Wins: 10 1 match went to Super Over SRH vs. MI Match Prediction: In this match, the Mumbai Indians seem to be in the stronger position given their current form and team qualities. With important players returning to form and their recent winning streak, they are in a strong position to defeat SRH. SRH has the home field advantage and a strong batting order, but MI may take advantage of their inconsistent play, especially when it comes to bowling. Thus, so long as they keep up their current pace and take advantage of SRH's weaknesses, the Mumbai Indians are well-positioned to win this game. SRH vs MI Predicted Playing 11 Sunrisers Hyderabad: Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma, Ishan Kishan, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Heinrich Klaasen (wk), Aniket Verma, Pat Cummins (c), Harshal P

LSG vs. DC: The IPL 2025's high-stakes drama continues as the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) get ready to host the Delhi Capitals (DC) in Match 40 on Tuesday, April 22, at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow. This matchup confirms fireworks as both teams compete for playoff spots. Even though they recently defeated the first IPL champions, Captain Rishabh Pant's performance has been a big worry. Even though he only scored fifty runs in this edition at the Ekana Ground, the Indian dasher has only amassed 106 runs in eight games. The left-handed batter's ability to duplicate that performance in this game is therefore still up in the air. In contrast, the Delhi Capitals won four straight games to start the season. But in their last three games, the team has dropped two of them. They will have to work hard against the hosts this time, after Axar Patel and his team battled against the Gujarat Titans in Ahmedabad in their previous match. In the background of all of this, the cricket community will never forget how the Delhi Capitals defeated LSG by one wicket when they played each other earlier in the league in Vizag, owing to the heroics of Ashutosh Sharma. LSG vs DC Match Details Match: Lucknow Super Giants vs Delhi Capitals, Indian Premier League 2025, Match 40 Venue: Ekana Cricket Stadium B Ground, Lucknow Date and Time: 22 April 2025, 7:30 PM Live Coverage Details: Star Sports (TV), Jio Hotstar LSG vs. DC-Head-to-Head: The Delhi Capitals and Lucknow Super Giants have already faced one another six times in IPL history. With no games concluding in a draw, both sides have won three games apiece. The Delhi Capitals won their most recent match on March 24, 2025, by a thrilling one-wicket margin. Ashutosh Sharma led the Capitals to a decisive victory in Visakhapatnam with a brilliant knock under pressure. LSG vs DC Predicted XI Lucknow Super Giants: Aiden Markram, Mitchell Marsh, Nicholas Pooran, Rishabh Pant (c & wk), David M

KKR vs. LSG Match Details: Match: Kolkata Knight Riders vs Lucknow Super Giants, Match 21, IPL 2025 Venue: Eden Gardens, Kolkata Date & Time: Tuesday, April 8, 2025, 3:30 PM (IST) Live Broadcast and Streaming Details: JioHotstar Eden Gardens Pitch Report: The Eden Gardens pitch has been the subject of much criticism. Two types of surfaces are said to be available at the beautiful stadium. High-scoring pitches are one type that has been more prevalent at the historic site in recent years. The second surface, however, will help the spinners more. The Sunrisers were dismissed for 120 after KKR scored 200/6 in the previous game. Up front, the pacers had a fair amount of swing. Although it was not a rank-turner, the spinners were receiving support. It would be crucial for the captains to accurately assess the pitch prior to the game and adjust their strategies accordingly. Weather Report: It will be overcast in Kolkata, IN, throughout the game. On match day, the weather is predicted to be around 27°C with 72% humidity and a wind speed of 22.7 km/h.

The Indian cricket squad, led by Rohit Sharma, left Mumbai on February 15, 2025, to play in the ICC Champions Trophy in Dubai. All of the team's games will be played in Dubai, while the remaining tournament matches will take place in Pakistan. It has been eight years since the last Champions Trophy event, which took place in 2017. The Dubai International Cricket Stadium will host India's opening match against Bangladesh on February 20. On February 23, there will be a much-anticipated encounter against Pakistan. Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant, Hardik Pandya, Rohit Sharma, and Shubman Gill are among the team's members. Eight players from the team's successful T20 World Cup 2024 campaign are joining the competition. They have experienced a setback, though, as Varun Chakaravarthy replaces Yashasvi Jaiswal and Harshit Rana replaces Jasprit Bumrah, who was sidelined by injury. The head coach, Gautam Gambhir, and several support personnel traveled with the team. All of India's matches will be held in Dubai as part of the hybrid format of the event. The eight participating teams are split up into two groups; India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and New Zealand are in Group A. In Dubai, former UAE coach Robin Singh expects the Indian team to play on spin-friendly surfaces.
