<p><em>Australia vs India: Australian skipper names three replacements for David Warner. Aaron Finch on Tuesday opened up about Warner?s replacement. Australia vs India: Australian skipper names three replacements for David Warner.</em></p>



<p>The Australian skipper Aaron Finch on Tuesday in conversation with cricket.com.au opened up about opener David Warner?s replacements in the limited over series. Mathew Wade, Marnus Labuschagne, and Alex Carey are probable players who can come up and bat at Warner's position for the team in remaining white-ball fixtures.</p>



<p>Australian opener David Warner who scored two back-to-back half-centuries in the first two-game got injured while fielding in the second ODI on Sunday. He quickly went for the scan and found out groin injury. Cricket Australia has already ruled out the opener batsman from the remaining white-ball fixtures against India. However, Cricket Australia prioritize the test side and wants Warner to be ready before the test series against India.</p>

<h2><strong>Aaron Finch on Warner's replacement:</strong></h2>



<p>?<em>We haven't selected our team yet, but we have got a few options on our side. We have some options, Wadey in the side can be up for the side or Marnus comes up and opens the inning, Alex Carey has done a lot of it in the past,</em>? cricket.com.au quoted Finch as saying.</p>



<p>?<em>But our middle order has been playing really well over the last little while. That is what reflected in the scoreboard of being two-nil up in the series. You can look to experiment if you want to do that or you can play safe</em>,? he added.</p>



<p>Finch praised Warner for his batting over the white ball format and reckons him as one of the best in the business of all time.</p>



<p>"<em>He is an all-time great in one-day and T20 cricket. I do not think there are many better players to have played the game</em>," said Finch.</p>



<p>?<em>Any side he is not part of is definitely going to be slightly weaker without his presence but we have few options available and we will look forward to use them</em>.?</p>



<p>The home side has already won the series with 2-0 lead in the second game itslef while they will be exciented to clean sweep the visitors.</p>

<p><em>IPL 2021: Aaron Finch reacts after going unsold in the IPL 2021 Auction.</em></p>



<p><strong>IPL 2021: </strong>The Australian limited over skipper and former RCB player, Aaron Finch is not surprised with the IPL 2021 Auction and said going unsold in the IPL auction was not unexpected for him. Aaron Finch in IPL 2020 played for Virat Kohli led RCB where he scored 268 runs in 12 games. Finch was released by RCB last month when the franchises had to provide the list of retained players and he went unsold in the recent IPL 2021 Auction.</p>



<p>?It would be good to keep playing the game. IPL is a great tournament with the world-class competition but going unsold was not unexpected for me. I?d prefer to be playing cricket, but a little bit of time at home won?t be the worst thing,? Cricket.com.au quoted Finch as saying.</p>



<p>No franchise was interested in the services of the Australian opening batsman in the Auction on 18th February at Chennai.</p>



<p>Australia will be taking on New Zealand in the five games T20I series starting on Monday. The opener of the series will be played at Hagley Oval in Christchurch. Finch said he is working on his technical part.</p>



<p>"I've been working a few technical things; trying to get a little bit less weight on my front foot. At times I can get a little bit flat-footed and my feet get planted then I struggle to move again - I have my initial movement then I get a little bit stuck," he said.</p>



<p>?I have talked a lot and worked quite a bit with Andrew McDonald, who has been my problem solver. Whenever I had some sort of issues or things doesn?t go right, I talk with him and he comes out with the solution pretty quick. It is really good to work on your body and investing in you.?</p>

IPL 2021: Aaron Finch reacts after going unsold in the IPL 2021 Auction

<p><em>IPL 2021: 3 Unsold players who can be picked later in the IPL 2021 tournaments.</em></p>



<p><strong>IPL 2021:</strong> The much-awaited auction of the Indian Premier League was held last week and the franchises did everything to bolster their squads. While most of the franchises were happy with the purchases they did in the event although there were restrictions.</p>



<p>South Africa?s all-rounder Chris Morris shattered all the past records as he became the most expensive buy of IPL history. The mega event started silently with some of the big names going sold but it picked the pace with all the teams fighting hard to get the desired players.</p>



<p>Out of 292 players, 62 players got the bids in the IPL 2021 Auction, while there were some names that went unsold despite having tremendous records in the other leagues or for their respective national side.</p>



<p>In this article, we will look at the 3 most prominent cricketers who can be drafted in the IPL 2021 tournament midway.</p>



<h2><strong>3 Unsold players who can be picked later in the IPL 2021 tournaments</strong></h2>



<h3><strong><span class="has-inline-color has-luminous-vivid-orange-color">Aaron Finch:&nbsp;</span></strong></h3>



<p>The Aussie limited over skipper, Aaron Finch somehow failed to impress the single IPL franchises think-tank and he went unsold in the recent IPL auctions. Finch who is a regular name in the Indian T20 tournament has failed to find a permanent franchise.</p>



<p>Last year, Finch played for Virat Kohli led RCB and he was preferred for the opening spot. Although there were flashes of his good innings throughout the tournament, however, lack of consistency cost him the place as he was released from the squad one month back.</p>



<p>But the Australian skipper is capable of turning the table at any moment. Finch who has huge experience can be drafted in later in the tournament as franchises might need him.</p>



<h3><strong><span class="has-inline-color has-luminous-vivid-orange-color">Jason Roy:</span></strong></h3>



<p>The English opener was also not picked by the franchises in the recent IPL auction. Last time, the opener represented Delhi Daredevils in IPL and since then he has not featured in the cash-rich league.</p>



<p>While set in the crease he can smash the bowlers for fun and he has shown us that in the past, But his fluency against the spin might be the concern for the management. Roy is not a comfortable batsman against Spin that too in the subcontinent.</p>



<p>The English opener can be a choice for the franchises and can be brought midway through the tournament.</p>



<h3><strong><span class="has-inline-color has-luminous-vivid-orange-color">Alex Hales:</span></strong></h3>



<p>The star of the recent tenth season of the Big Bash League (BBL), Alex Hales was also not picked in the auctions. The right-handed batsman is in supreme form and has the ability to smack the bowlers around the park easily. Despite his runs, he also won the Golden Bat award in the BBL season 10.</p>



<p>The English batsman going unsold was not expected by the cricket pundits. He plays at number 3 for England national team in the ODIs. Hales can be a perfect choice of young flexible talent.</p>



<p>The franchises might opt for him leaving the above two batsmen if they required a solid opener and middle-order batsman.</p>

<p><strong>HUR</strong> <strong>vs</strong> <strong>THU</strong> <strong>BBL</strong> <strong>2024</strong>-<strong>25</strong> <strong>Final</strong> <strong>Dream11</strong> <strong>Prediction</strong>: The wait is finally over, and we will have the champion for the 14th edition of the Big Bash League (BBL 2024-25). Two teams have qualified for the final, and we will have a new champion this season. The reigning champion Brisbane Heat have been knocked out, and the final will be played between Hobart Hurricanes and Sydney Thunder.</p>
<p>This clash will be held at 1:45 PM on Monday at Bellerive Oval in Hobart. The Hurricanes finished the group stage at the top and beat the Sixers in the Qualifier to reach this stage. Meanwhile, the Thunder beat Melbourne Stars and Sydney Sixers in Knockout and Challenger matches to make it to the final.</p>
<p>But now, everything depends on this clash, as the team that wins here will lift the trophy. The Hurricanes have never won the BBL title, while the Thunder have won it once in 2015.

<p>The marquee event of this year, ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is approaching quickly and Pakistan are busy finalizing preparations to compete as the hosts. They will be competing in a Tri-Series versus South Africa and New Zealand before the Champions Trophy and this bilateral event will act as a preparatory ground for the Mohammad Rizwan-led team. </p>
<p>They have momentum on their side as they will be entering the tournament on the back of historic series wins in South Africa and Australia and also a good performance in the Tri Series will definitely increase their confidence and morale. </p>
<p>Interestingly, the hosts are the only team who haven't unveiled their squad yet for the meha event of this year and questions about their unannounced squad have already started to raise and discussions have sparked. </p>
<p>With explosive opener Saim Ayub struggling with an ankle fracture, several news reports have claimed that the Pakistani selectors might consider bringing in the likes of Shan Masood back into the One-Day International setup. Apart from the Test Captain, the National Team selectors might also consider bringing in some forgotten players and let's take a look at three such forgotten players who might get a chance to make their comebacks into the team in the forthcoming Champions Trophy 2025.</p>
<h2 style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Usama Mir  </strong></h2>
<p>29-year-old spinner Usama Mir might find himself back in the squad for Champions Trophy 2025. With 15 scalps to his name in 12 One-Day Internationals, Usama has demonstrated his ability to outfox opposition batters with his unpredictable variations. While the duo of Sufiyan Muqeem and Abrar Ahmed have shown promise, their lack of experience in 50 over Cricket could lead the selectors to pick Usama Mir over the two above mentioned players. In List-A Cricket, the 29-year-old has dismissed 86 batters in 58 contests, which further strengthens his case. </p>
<h2><strong>Shadab Khan</strong></h2>
<p>Once considered as the backbone of Pakistan's spin bowling unit, Shadab Khan has been away from One-Day Cricket due to a prolonged rough patch with the ball. The leg spin bowling All-rounder, with 85 scalps and 855 runs to his name in 70 One-Day Internationals, still remains a valuable asset for the Green Shirts. </p>
<p>Keeping in mind the middle order struggles of the defending champions, Khan's ability to contribute with both ball &amp; bat could help him in securing a spot in Pakistan's Champions Trophy 2025 squad. His experience and a knack of performing in high-pressure situations makes him a strong contender for making a comeback to the National Team.</p>
<h2 style="text-align: left;"><strong>Imam-ul-Haq</strong></h2>
<p>29-year-old Imam-ul-Haq, a reliable opening batter with a total of 3,138 One-Day International runs to his name at a good average of 48.27, last participated in an ODI match during the 2023 ODI World Cup in India. With Saim Ayub missing out due to an ankle injury and Abdullah Shafique struggling for form with the bat, the Pakistani selectors might turn to Imam in order to provide stability to the top-order. His proven track-record in ODI's make him a perfect option for the forthcoming Champions Trophy 2025.</p>
<p>The selection committee of Pakistan's Men's National Cricket Team faces some tough decisions ahead of 2025 Champions Trophy. While the trio of Imam, Shadab and Usama may seem like surprising picks, their skill sets and experience could prove to be very crucial on home soil. Pakistani fans eagerly await the squad announcement of the National Team and they are hoping to see a balanced team capable of defending the Champions Trophy. </p>

<p>An incredible Bollywood biopic is set to be made on the life of former legendary Indian Captain Sourav Ganguly also known by his famous nickname 'Dada'. Following the success of the biopics of Mohammad Azharuddin, Mithali Raj and Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Ganguly's story will also be seen on the big screens. It is reported that this incredible film be made with the help of a big financial budget and talks are ongoing of executing this film under a big production house. </p>
<p>Actor Rajkumar Rao's name has popped up to play the role of Dada in the film. Before, there were talks of Ranbir Kapoor and then Ayushmann Khurrana to play the role of the legendary Indian captain but there's no official confirmation regarding who will get the chance to play the role of Ganguly. </p>
<p>The information about the script and release date are yet to be revealed and many interesting stories of Ganguly's life will be shown in this upcoming movie. Let's take a look at five such incidents which can make this biopic even more special:</p>
<h2><strong>Waving Team India's shirt on the Lord's balcony</strong></h2>
<p>In the all-important final of the 2002 Natwest Trophy, Team India chased down the difficult target of 326 runs and defeated England and this victory proved to be a really historic one. After securing this victory, Dads took off his jersey and waved it on the famous Lord's balcony. This moment became a symbol of the new era of Indian Cricket and showing this moment can truly make the biopic of Ganguly special.</p>
<h2><strong>Differences with Rahul Dravid</strong></h2>
<p>The friendship between two legends of Indian Cricket, Sourav Ganguly and Rahul Dravid was quite famous in the world of Cricket. But when Greg Chappell became the head coach of the National Team, differences started arising between the two players. Ganguly didn't like Chappell's arbitrariness and he expressed his displeasure with Dravid that he was not saying anything to Chappell despite being the skipper. This is the main reason why there was a distance between the two.</p>
<h3><strong>Greg Chappell Controversy</strong></h3>
<p>In 2005, the controversy between coach Greg Chappell and Ganguly created a stir in the world of Cricket. The former Australian batter wrote an email to the BCCI and called Ganguly "physically &amp; mentally" unfit for handling the leadership duties of the Men in Blue. This entire controversy was leaked to the Indian media and it made a lot of headlines.</p>
<h2><strong>Differences with Ravi Shastri</strong></h2>
<p>During the selection of the head coach of the Indian Team in 2016, a dispute was created between Ravi Shastri and Sourav Ganguly. The former had given his interview through a video call and the latter didn't attend the interview through a video call. Apart from Ganguly, the likes of VVS Laxman and Sachin Tendulkar were also a part of the committee formed for the selection of the Head Coach. </p>
<p>As Dada didn't attend the video call, a rhetoric was created between him and Shastri. This dispute became the main talking point in Indian Media.</p>
<h3><strong>Rumours of an affair with actress Nagma</strong></h3>
<p>During the 1999 ODI World Cup, the news of an affair between actress Nagma and Cricketer Sourav Ganguly popped up in the headlines. Although the Cricketer always denied it, the actress later confirmed the relationship and said that they had ended it in the interest of the country. Ganguly was already married and was the father of a child too at that time so the affair rumours proved to be very significant.</p>

<p><span>Chasing the target of 166 runs, India struggled to have a good start as both the openers, Sanju Samson and Abhishek Sharma, got out early. Tilak Varma, who walked out to bat at number three played a stellar innings and held the one end despite the wickets falling at the other end.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>The Southpaw hardly got any support till Washington Sundar (26) played a key role down the order before India was left tottering at 126 for seven. But Varma showed great maturity and took the game deep even though England kept ticking with wickets at the other end.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span><span></span></p>
<p><span>Tilak Varma slammed a terrific half-century but made sure that he didn't lose his focus. He played the situation pretty well and took the game to the last over.

<p><span>Tilak Varma played a magnificent innings of unbeaten 72 runs off 55 balls. The left-hander batted with a strike rate of over 130 and also slammed 4 fours and 5 sixes in his innings. His knock helped India win the game and also earned him the Player of the Match award.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>As Tilak Varma won India the match, the entire Indian dressing room was chuffed to bits. The interesting reaction came from head coach Gautam Gambhir, who was seen kissing batter on the neck. This happened when the teams were shaking hands.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
