            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="https://media.cricketwinner.com/media/2025/06/Aakash_Chopra_on_team_Ind.original.format-webp-lossless.webp" width="1200" height="720" alt="Aakash Chopra"/><p>The 2025 <a href="https://www.iplt20.com/">Indian Premier League</a> (IPL) season ended with Royal Challengers Bengaluru, under Rajat Patidar's leadership, breaking their 18-year wait to claim their first IPL trophy. Not only did the season see impressive team efforts, but it also saw a whole new set of fresh faces showcasing some of the most thrilling young talent to leave an indelible mark on the biggest platform.</p><p>Amongst the ones who were impressed was ex-India opener and cricket commentator <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aakash_Chopra">Aakash Chopra</a>, who posted his uncapped XI of IPL 2025 after the completion of the tournament. Showcasing the emergence of young players, Chopra's selections featured some shining stars — top among them being 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi and 17-year-old Ayush Mhatre, who demonstrated that talent is ageless when it comes to top-level cricket.</p><p>Chopra began his XI with Prabhsimran Singh and Priyansh Arya, showing respect for their work of leading their team to the IPL final. "Prabhsimran scored more than 500 runs — to put things into perspective, even Rohit Sharma has done that just once," Chopra added. He placed Vaibhav Suryavanshi at No. 3, even before CSK's promising kid Ayush Mhatre, highlighting the youngster's contribution during the season.</p><h3>Vipraj Nigam Dubbed the "Find of the Tournament,"</h3><p>Chopra went on to select Delhi Capitals' Vipraj Nigam as his top all-rounder in his XI. Praises his versatility, Chopra stated, "He bowls leg-spin, bowls fast, turns the ball, and scores runs in both the powerplay and middle overs. He might be the first amongst these names who plays for India."</p><p><strong>Also Read: </strong><a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/watch-sharayu-kulkarni-imitates-rishabh-pant-s-celebration-after-smriti-mandhana-dismissal-in-wmpl/">WATCH: Sharayu Kulkarni imitates Rishabh Pant's celebration after Smriti Mandhana dismissal in WMPL</a></p><p>Chopra's uncapped IPL 2025 XI are Prabhsimran Singh, Priyansh Arya, Vaibhav Suryavanshi, Nehal Wadhera, Shashank Singh, Naman Dhir, Vipraj Nigam, Harpreet Brar, Yash Dayal, Vijaykumar Vyshak, and Anshul Kamboj — an exciting bunch full of youthful spark and future Indian talent.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p>]]></content:encoded>

            <description><![CDATA[Umpire errors in the MI vs DC IPL 2025 match on May 63, 2025, sparked the viral "Umpire Indians at their best" trend as fans criticized decisions involving Vipraj and Abhishek Porel.]]></description>
            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="https://media.cricketwinner.com/media/2025/05/WhatsApp-Image 2025-05-22 at 01.10.05_67456c3b.webp" width="1152" height="720" alt="MI vs DC"/><p>In the wake of Match 63 between <a href="https://www.mumbaiindians.com/">Mumbai Indians </a>(MI) and Delhi Capitals (DC) in IPL 2025, the phrase “Umpire Indians” began trending on social media, as frustrated fans and analysts blamed a series of poor umpiring decisions for being a huge factor in the game. Although MI secured a great victory by 59 runs at Wankhede Stadium, the focus was more on the poor decisions that haunted the match. Among the discussion circulating among fans was the main sentiment that Delhi Capitals were victims of poor officiating. </p><p>Two specific decisions stood out among many that night. The first was in the 13th over of DC's chase when Vipraj lofted a shot that clearly sailed over the boundary ropes yet was signaled a four by the on-field umpire. Frustrated players and fans of DC were bewildered that no TV umpire review was called. Television replays, which suggested that the ball comfortably cleared the boundary, killed DC’s momentum just when they needed a boost. </p><p>The second questionable decision happened when Vipraj was dismissed off a delivery from Mitchell Santner that appeared to be a clear no-ball for overstepping. While Santner's foot was clearly over the line from the original camera angles shown to broadcasters, the on-field umpires chose not to refer to it as a no-ball. All this was further compounded by the fashionable disbelief of the commentators and the crowd. As if that weren’t enough, Abhishek Porel’s LBW dismissal sparked further outrage, with UltraEdge indicating a possible inside edge that wasn’t considered in the final call.</p><h3>Social Media Uproar: “Umpire Indians” Becomes a Hashtag of Frustration</h3><p>As soon as the game ended, fans took to Twitter and Instagram to share screenshots and clips of the poor decisions, calling them “game-defining errors.” The hashtag #UmpireIndians became a trending topic in a number of regions, with fans accusing the officiating crew of inconsistency and bias. Some fans wanted the BCCI to investigate umpiring standards and put in more strict DRS protocols.</p><p><strong>Also Read: </strong><a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/virat-kohli-s-fitness-routine-after-retirement-includes-pickleball/">Virat Kohli’s Fitness Routine After Retirement Includes Pickleball?</a></p><p>While Mumbai stepped away with a must-have win to keep them alive in the playoff hunt, the post-match discussion has mostly centered around the umpiring controversies, not Suryakumar Yadav's brilliance or Bumrah's fiery spells. For a tournament that prides itself on excellence, the integrity of umpiring might now be the biggest talking point of the IPL.</p>]]></content:encoded>

While Prasidh Krishna's aggressive bowling was rewarded with a four-wicket haul, it was Buttler's brilliant catch behind the stumps to dismiss the young Delhi Capitals player <a href="https://www.delhicapitals.in/players/88677-vipraj-nigam-profile">Vipraj Nigam</a> that really highlighted the excitement of the match.</p><p>Nigam, an exciting young leg-spin all-rounder, had shown moments of brilliance so far this season, and came in to bat for Delhi Capitals in some pressure situation, trying to build a partnership. He was certainly looking the part; however, things changed in unfortunate circumstances again, with Buttler taking a brilliant low catch. It must be noted, Buttler was not the 'official' wicketkeeper in this game for the Gujarat Titans; however he still was able to take advantage of that, and the match was in Ahmedabad.</p><p><strong>watch video:</strong></p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">What a fantastic Grab by Jos butler 🔥<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/GTvsDC?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#GTvsDC</a> <a href="https://t.co/SBrZCwmK8M">pic.twitter.com/SBrZCwmK8M</a></p>— Aniket 𝕏 (@ImAniket264) <a href="https://twitter.com/ImAniket264/status/1913562863005802509?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 19, 2025</a></blockquote><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><strong>Also Read:-</strong><a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/ipl-2025-mi-vs-csk-match-38-who-will-be-impact-players-for-today-s-match/#google_vignette">IPL 2025: MI vs CSK Match 38- Who will be Impact Players for today's match?</a></blockquote><p><strong>Redemption Catch That Lit Up the Stadium</strong></p><p>Prasidh Krishna's delivery was sharp as it slightly nipped away outside off-stump. Nigam, looking to guide it through the slips, only managed a faint edge. The ball appeared to be off to the boundary just past Buttler's glove in a right-side dive. But Buttler's extraordinary agility and hand-eye coordination allowed him to launch himself sideways and take the catch; his right wing seconded his whole frame as he dove and made his glove a palming platform of support for the ball. </p>]]></content:encoded>

            <description><![CDATA[Virat Kohli’s struggles against leg-spinners continued in IPL 2025 after falling to Vipraj Nigam, raising questions about a recurring weakness. Despite his legendary status, his conservative approach against spin has made him more vulnerable in recent seasons.]]></description>
            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="https://media.cricketwinner.com/media/2025/04/WhatsApp-Image 2025-04-10 at 20.52.31.webp" width="719" height="412" alt="Virat Kohli"/><p>On April 10, 2025, <a href="https://royalchallengers.com/">Royal Challengers Bengaluru</a> (RCB) played<a href="https://www.delhicapitals.in/"> Delhi Capitals</a> (DC) in an intense IPL match. There was a turning point when <a href="https://www.iplt20.com/teams/royal-challengers-bengaluru/squad-details/164">Virat Kohli</a> was caught by leg-spinner <a href="https://www.delhicapitals.in/players/88677-vipraj-nigam-profile">Vipraj Nigam</a>, and there was a mixed bag of fan reactions on social media. A typical remark captured the mood: "Saare spinners ko wicket dega tera Kohli" (Your Kohli will get his wicket off all spinners). Even though Kohli is a game legend, the last few years have exposed an increasing battle with leg-spin, particularly in the IPL.<br><br>Nigam was mostly unheard of, but he had a clean dismissal of Kohli, which adds legitimacy to the fact that leg spinners have become Achilles' heels for him. Fans took to social media with sarcasm and concern, as they pointed out that this wasn't the first time Kohli had fallen to spin bowling. A single wicket does not define a career, but it does signal deeper analysis. </p><h3>Kohli IPL Record vs. Spinners</h3><p>After April 2025, Kohli has played 256 IPL matches and has scored a total of 8,168 runs at 38.90 and a strike rate of 131.9. He has been dismissed a total of 197 times, and spinners have determined a large portion of those dismissals. More specifically, he has been dismissed by</p><ul><li>Left-arm spinners: 57 dismissals</li><li>Right-arm spinners: 140 dismissals</li></ul><p><strong>Also Read: </strong><a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/ipl-2025-csk-vs-kkr-a-head-to-head-breakdown/">IPL 2025: CSK vs. KKR - A Head to Head breakdown</a></p><p>Kohli vs. Leg Spinners: Statistical Analysis: Leg spinners, because of their ability to turn the ball away from right-handers, have also given Kohli much grief. Some of the best leg-spinners who have gotten him out on more than one occasion are</p><ul><li>Yuzvendra Chahal: 3 times</li><li>Rashid Khan: 2 times</li><li>Amit Mishra: 2–3 times</li><li>Piyush Chawla: 2 times</li></ul><p>With Nigam’s 2025 dismissal, the trend continues. Up to 2024, Kohli was likely dismissed by leg-spinners 20–25 times. Nigam's wicket pushes that tally higher.</p><h3>Kohli’s Weakness Against Spin: Fact or Fiction?</h3><p>Once dominant against spin, Kohli’s post-2022 numbers reveal a more cautious game. Data shows he attempts aggressive (150+ strike rate) shots against spin just 14% of the time, well below the league average of 25%. This defensive approach has increased his vulnerability, especially against wrist spin.</p><p><strong>Also Read: </strong><a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/watch-virat-kohli-reacts-to-his-first-ipl-potm-interview/">Watch: Virat Kohli reacts to his first IPL POTM interview</a></p><p>At 37 years old, there are concerns about age or a change of strategy in his game. His strike rates against Kuldeep (115.09) and Chahal (120) are lower than his career average, indicating a pattern that rivals are keen to target.</p>]]></content:encoded>
