ICC T20 World Cup: Suryakumar Yadav and Ishan Kishan equipped enough to play T20 World Cup: Sachin Tendulkar.



ICC T20 World Cup 2021: Legendary Cricketer Sachin Tendulkar feels Suryakumar Yadav and Ishan Kishan are good enough to play the forthcoming ICC T20 World Cup later this year in India.



Both Mumbai Indian cricketers have made their T20I debut in ongoing India vs England T20I series. Yadav and Kishan both debuted on the same game but the former had to wait for one more game to get his chance and showcase his skills.



Wicketkeeper-batsman Ishan Kishan smacked a blistering half-century on his debut and won the ?Man of the Match? award and so is the case with Suryakumar Yadav.



Sachin Tendulkar has seen both the players grow in Mumbai Indians and they have shown what they are capable of.



?There is no question how talented both the players are,? Tendulkar told Reuters in a telephone interview.



?It eventually boils down to selection and the selection committee. But I can say that having played in IPL against all the leading foreign players, they are ready to play (in the Twenty20 World Cup).?



Tendulkar is the mentor of five times IPL winners and has watched both the players closely. He was not surprised to watch their performances against the top England T20I side.



?I have spent time with both of them and they are talented cricketers.?



?Before the start of IPL 2020, Ishan was practising in the nets, he was trying to get a balanced and perfect bat swing and to be mentally stable throughout and the results can be seen now.?



Ishan Kishan and Surya both have seen Jofra Archer and Ben Stokes in IPL games before and know what they exactly do. IPL has given a great exposure to young guns.



Suryakumar started his international journey with a six in the very first ball of Jofra Archer over fine leg. He looked fearless and stable in the crease right through his innings.



?What IPL has done is it has given exposure to players to play against the leading players in the world,? Tendulkar said.



?Now before you play against any international side you get to play against them or with them in the IPL. So, you know the dynamics and reality of international cricket early on. When we used to play we had to face the international players right away,? Sachin Tendulkar said.

It is noteworthy that Virat Kohli has also won the World Cup 2011 and has amassed over 11,000 runs in the last 10 years with an average of over 60 and smacking 42 tons.

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. 
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. 
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. 
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.
<h2 style="text-align: justify;">Usama Mir  </h2>
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. 
<h2>Shadab Khan</h2>
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. 
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.
<h2 style="text-align: left;">Imam-ul-Haq</h2>
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.
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.

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. 
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. 
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:
<h2>Waving Team India's shirt on the Lord's balcony</h2>
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.
<h2>Differences with Rahul Dravid</h2>
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.
<h3>Greg Chappell Controversy</h3>
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.
<h2>Differences with Ravi Shastri</h2>
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. 
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.
<h3>Rumours of an affair with actress Nagma</h3>
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.

He has been out of Team India for a long time, finds himself out of the Ranji Team as well</a>

The life of former Indian cricket team captain Sourav Ganguly will soon be shown on the big screen in his biopic and preparations are underway to bring 'Dada's' story to Bollywood.

India head coach was mighty impress with the way young batter Tilak Varma played in the second T20I against England. The second match of the five-match series between the two heavyweights took place at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Saturday (25th January). 
Tilak Varma played one of his best innings in his career as he almost single-handedly won the game for India. The left-hander played a magnificent innings for his team and helped India win the game by the margin of just two wickets and took a 2-0 lead in the series.
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. 
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. 
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. A decent support from Ravi Bishnoi in the end allowed him to win the match for his team as India won the game by two wickets. 
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. 
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.
