Jasprit Bumrah will be rested for two matches during the 5-match Test series against England, starting on June 20. During the absence of Bumrah, someone needs to take a step forward to take the leadership of India's pace bowling attack. The main squad of India and India A team is in the UK with a bunch of fresh talents in the Whites. Ahead of the series, the Indian camp will play an intrasquad match, where players from both setups will get the stage to show their talents face-to-face with their teammates. 

Bowlers with qualities to find a place in first XI against England

Arshdeep Singh 

Apart from Bumrah, Arshdeep Singh has been a fan favorite for a long time. If he proves himself in the nets, then probably he could get his Test cap in the series against England. Singh has played in England before in Kent, so he has a brief experience playing in English conditions.

Anshul Kamboj 

From the India A team, another bowler who has impressed pretty much is Anshul Kamboj. This right-handed bowler from Haryana proved more effective in longer formats than in shorter format matches. The all-rounder has played both multi-day matches against England Lions and pocketed a total of 5 games. In the second unofficial test, Kamboj grabbed 4 scalps. His bowling looked more controlled and right on the spot. The bowler, who stands over 6 ft 2 inches, is now considered one of the future prospects for Indian cricket. 

Prasidh Krishna 

Another tall seamer in the mix, he polished his skills over the years a lot. Prasidh Krishna can be a contender to sneak into the playing eleven against England. In his last Test match against Australia in Sydney, he took 6 wickets. For Gujarat Titans in IPL 2025, Krishna showed his brilliance by snatching 25 wickets in 15 matches. 2025 can be the year for the Karnataka-born to redefine himself. 

The 2025 edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) came to a thrilling close as Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) finally broke their title drought, lifting their maiden IPL trophy in a gripping final against Punjab Kings (PBKS). The match epitomized the IPL tournament in the best way possible, which had plenty of nail-biting moments throughout the matches, high-scoring games, amazing comebacks, and the rise of new cricketing talent. RCB’s triumph marked the culmination of years of near misses, with their balanced squad and clutch performances guiding them to glory.

IPL 2025 was more than just about the final—it was a season that showcased some of the most consistent and explosive individual performances in the league’s history. Young talents like B. Sai Sudharsan are proving to be incredible assets, and seasoned players like Suryakumar Yadav and Prasidh Krishna are demonstrating their class. From breathtaking knocks to game-changing bowling spells, this season delivered on every front, making it one of the most entertaining editions to date.

The IPL 2025 awards showcased the unusual and unique nature of IPL as newcomers came into the limelight and left an impeccable mark. The individual and team achievements, such as B Sai Sudharsan topping everything with the bat and on fantasy points leaderboards and RCB rewriting their own history, were a testament to the raw talent, rich strategy, and iron will. As franchises regroup and fans relive the highlights, IPL 2025 stands tall as a benchmark for competitiveness and entertainment in the world of T20 cricket.

In Match no 67 of IPL 2025, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) won against Gujarat Titans (GT) by a big margin of 83 runs. CSK Batted first, they scored a massive score of 230 runs, and in reply, GT failed to chase the target.

CSK’s batters went all guns blazing right from the start. Young Ayush Mhatre lit up the stadium with a quickfire 34 off just 17 balls, which included a standout over that went 2, 6, 6, 4, 4, 6. Dewald Brevis smashed a brilliant 57 off 23 balls, while Devon Conway played a steady hand with 52 from 35 deliveries. Urvil Patel also scored quick runs 37 off 19 balls, helping CSK reach one of the highest total runs of the season.

Despite the big score, a few GT bowlers showed some fight. Prasidh Krishna was the best of the lot, picking up 2 wickets for just 22 runs in his 4 overs. Shahrukh Khan bowled only one over but got a wicket while giving away 13 runs. Sai Kishore also took a wicket, but was expensive, conceding 23 runs in 2 overs. 

Chasing a huge total of 231, GT never really got going. Sai Sudharsan tried to hold things together with a solid 41 off 28 balls. Arshad Khan (20 off 14) and Shahrukh Khan (19 off 15) made small contributions, but the rest of the batting fell apart.CSK’s bowlers made sure there was no way back for GT. Anshul Kamboj was an outstanding performer, taking 3 wickets for just 13 runs in 2.3 overs. Noor Ahmad also took 3 wickets, giving away only 21 runs in 4 overs. Ravindra Jadeja kept things tight and picked up 2 wickets for 17 runs in 3 overs.

1 Prasidh Krishna (Gujarat Titans)

Prasidh Krishna's deceptive speed and his ability to surprise the batters with his bounce have been his main strengths so far this season. The 29-year-old pacer can fox the batters with his clever seam movement and late swing.

Krishna has claimed 19 wickets in 10 IPL games so far this season with best bowling figures of 4/41. Krishna has bowled well on flat batting wickets, and his ability to change his length depending on the wickets has been his biggest strength this season. 

2. Josh Hazlewood (Royal Challengers Bangalore)

Hazlewood has had this knack of taking wickets with his seam-up deliveries, and the experienced pro has been consistent in this in the entire season. His ability to take wickets with the new ball has been beneficial for Royal Challengers Bangalore. The 35-year-old has claimed 18 wickets in 10 IPL games so far with best bowling figures of 4/33.

The Australian pacer has the knack of outsmarting the batters with his late swing and leg cutters. Hazlewood possesses the knack of taking wickets during the run of play and getting wickets during regular intervals, which makes him a penetrative option at the death. The pacer's deceptive length has troubled the best batters in world cricket.

3. Arshdeep Singh (Punjab Kings)

Arshdeep Singh has worked well on yorker length deliveries, combined with his ability to bowl quick full-length deliveries consistently. The 26-year-old has generated pace and bounce on bouncy wickets. The Punjab-born cricketer has his the deck hard to surprise the batters and has looked impressive with his reverse swing.

The left-arm pacer has claimed 16 wickets in 11 IPL games so far, with best bowling figures of 3/16. He has altered his line cleverly while delivering the ball in front of the popping crease, causing problems for the batters. Arshdeep's performance has helped Punjab Kings to contain the big hitters. 

A bouncer followed by an aggressive throw towards the Mumbai Indians batter. The highly intense Mumbai Indians (MI) vs. Gujarat Titans (GT) match has all the elements to pump up a player and cricket fan. Prasidh Krishna, Gujarat Titans bowler, threw a ball intentionally after his delivery to Corbin Bosch. 

The crucial MI vs. GT match of the IPL 2025 has started in a controversial manner, as there was no DRS available at the initial stage of the match, which denied a possible LBW of Rohit Sharma. Though Sharma did not harm GT too much, as he went back to the dugout early after making only 7 runs off 8 balls.

Apart from the ball-tracking system controversy, Gujarat Titans' fielding disappointed their captain, Shubman Gill, so much that he was forced to cover his face with his hand; his teammates dropped three easy catches. After all the hurdles, GT made a solid comeback in the first innings of the match at Wankhede Stadium.

Prasidh Krishna added more spice in the 15th over of the game with his extra aggressive approach. The Indian pacer started the over with a bouncer, on which Corbin Bosch did not show any intention to make a shot. In the very next delivery, the ball returned straight to Krishna after the right-handed MI batter defended the delivery. The GT bowlers picked the ball up and threw it straight to the batter's pad, though Krishna made an apology to Bosch after the incident.

In the first innings, Gujarat Titans managed to restrict Mumbai Indians to 155 in 20 overs after all the drama. Bosch scored 27 for 22 deliveries, and Krishna, in his 4-over spell, got the wicket of Naman Dhir and spent 37 runs. 

The IPL 2025 Match 51 between Gujarat Titans (GT) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH). GT scored 224/6 in 20 overs, while SRH managed 186/6 in their 20 overs, resulting in a 38-run victory for GT.

Gujarat Titans innings

Gujarat Titans blitzed to a score of 224/6 all within their allotted 20 overs due to a dominant top order. Opening batsman Shubham Gill led the way with a quickfire 76 runs off 38 deliveries, showing everyone what class looks like with some aesthetically pleasing shots. Jos Buttler assisted Gill nicely with 64 runs off 37 balls, keeping the run rate under control during the middle overs. Sai Sudharsan exploded with a 48-run innings off just 23 deliveries, which helped maintain momentum for GT. Although there was a solid base to work with, GT lost a couple of wickets late to finish at a solid total. Jaydev Unadkat was the pick of Sunrisers bowlers, grabbing 3 wickets for 35 runs, while Pat Cummins and Zeeshan Ansari also chimed in with a wicket each, albeit going at a much higher economy.

Sunrisers Hyderabad innings

Sunrisers Hyderabad, on the flip side of the scoreboard, were only able to muster a score of 186 runs for 6 wickets in their 20 overs, falling short by 38 runs. Abhishek Sharma played a brilliant innings of 74 runs off 41 balls, keeping Sunrisers in touch with the fast run chase, especially when he started to play aggressively. The biggest issue with the chase was there were no middle-order contributions for SRH. Some resistance was shown by Heinrich Klaasen (23 runs off 18 balls) and Nitish Kumar Reddy (21 runs off 10), but it was not enough as the target continued to look further away. Gujarat bowled sharply, with Prasid Krishna chipping in with the most economical bowling performance of all with figures of 2/19 off his 4 overs. Mohammed Siraj and Ishant Sharma also contributed crucial wickets, maintaining pressure throughout.

GT vs SRH: Post Match Reactions

In preparation for the England tour, he copped to practicing on his own in his room with a red ball.

Shubman Gill (Gujarat Titans Captain): Gill complimented his top order and fielding unit. "We did not plan for 22 dot balls; we played positive cricket. But nobody saw the difficult conditions of black soil to bat on." He praised the bowlers for making the right adjustments.

Jos Buttler (Gujarat Titans): Butler said the team displayed their best fielding effort of the season: "Rashid's catch set the tone." He praised Sudharsan's consistency and Krishna's disciplined bowling. "Prasidh is smart about using his variations and mixing lengths."

Pat Cummins (Sunrisers Hyderabad Captain): Cummins said SRH conceded probably too many runs (20-30) during the powerplay and dropped catches. But he praised Abhishek Sharma's knock, and he was looking ahead with optimism: "There is a good young core within the SRH team, and the atmosphere is electric with a crowd of 90,000."

Gujarat Titans clinched their first victory in IPL 2025 by overcoming the Mumbai Indians (MI) by 36 runs at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad.

Batting Wins the Game for GT

GT faced no trouble, as they comfortably managed 196 runs with 8 wickets taken in the 20 overs. Sai Sudharsan managed the innings, while both Shubman Gill (38) and Jos Buttler (39) played their parts. Rashid Khan and Rahul Tewatia’s cameos played a major impact as wickets fell regularly.

A Slow But Steady Chase by MI

MI’s chase began on a rough note as they lost Rohit Sharma early to Mohammed Siraj. Suryakumar Yadav struggled but managed a strong 48 runs off 28 balls. With Siraj and Prasidh Krishna’s amazing bowling skills, the rest of MI struggled as well. Hardik Pandya’s poor performance during the middle overs did not help MI's cause either, and at the end they fell short, scoring 160 with 8 wickets taken.
