  IPL 2025 – Clash of Titans: Chennai Super Kings vs Delhi Capitals | Match  A Brief Spark Fizzles – Rachin Ravindra’s 3(6) Over 1.5 – A Twist of Fate! GOT HIM! Just as Rachin Ravindra looked to settle, destiny had other plans. Mukesh Kumar, with quiet precision, delivers a deceptive short-of-length ball on leg. The pitch slows it down—Ravindra, too early into his shot, is caught in two minds.

Ravindra c & b Mukesh Kumar 3(6) Over 1.4 – The Calm Before the Storm Outside off, harmless and wide. Ravindra lets it pass, eyes burning with determination. A duel was brewing—but it would never fully ignite. Over 1.1 – A Glimmer Short, rising toward the ribs. Ravindra responds with a sharp swivel, sending it to deep square for a single. A flash of control. Over 0.3 – Precision Stroke Back of a length, outsi...

India is gearing up for their first Test match against England at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad, scheduled to kick off on January 25. The home team, known for their dominance in local conditions, faces a challenge as Virat Kohli is absent for personal reasons in the initial two Tests, a situation the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has requested .    The replacement for Kohli is a crucial decision, with Shreyas Iyer being a strong contender due to his proficiency against spin bowling.
