Did KL Rahul confirm his interest in returning to the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB)?
KL Rahul to RCB?
KL Rahul, a former RCB player, has been linked with a return to the franchise ahead of IPL 2025. Rumors suggest he may leave Lucknow Super Giants to rejoin his old team. In a recent viral video, a fan asked KL Rahul about a potential move to RCB, and the current LSG skipper responded with a hopeful “Let’s hope so.” Rahul’s past association with RCB and his positive response to the fan’s question have fueled speculation about his possible return.
Sanju Samson disappoints!
Very few batters look as pleasing as Sanju Samson when the Kerala batter is in full flow. Although he is a match-winner in white-ball cricket, his exploits in red-ball are nothing that major. In the 63 FC games, he has made 3,668 runs at an average of 38.20, which is not ideal by his standards. In the recent Duleep Trophy game, he once again failed to impress, getting out for 4 and 40 across both the innings.
Headache for Agarkar-Gambhir
The BCCI is set for hectic weeks ahead, with multiple team announcements looming. The selection committee will announce squads for the upcoming IND vs BAN (2nd) Test and T20I series, and the Irani Cup. With time constraints, the Rest of India (ROI) squad for the Irani Cup might also be announced simultaneously. As new head coach Gautam Gambhir looks to build bench strength, we can expect some fresh faces in the Test squad.
Shubman Gill to get rested
Shubman Gill, the current Team India vice-captain in ODIs and T20Is, is set to be rested for the upcoming T20I series against Bangladesh. The BCCI aims to manage his workload and keep him fresh for the crucial IND vs NZ Test series. With just three days between the final T20I and the first Test, a break for Gill is deemed essential.
Hats off to you, Neeraj Chopra
Indian javelin sensation Neeraj Chopra defied a fractured hand to secure a remarkable second-place finish in the Diamond League Final on September 14. Despite the injury, Chopra’s best throw of 87.86 meters was just one centimeter short of the title, won by Grenada’s Anderson Peters. Quite phenomenally, Neeraj Chopra revealed his wrist injury a day after his Diamond League Silver medal.
Yashasvi Jaiswal & Shubman Gill era!
Indian openers Jaiswal and Gill are the talk of the town, even among Aussie cricketers. These two young guns are not just India’s next big thing but are also a joy to watch even for cricket’s purists. The Aussies are so impressed, they’ve been buzzing about them! Eight out of six Aussies picked Jaiswal as their top pick, but Gill also got a few votes. These guys are the present and future of Indian cricket, absolutely no question about that!
