    PSW vs BHW Pitch Report

    The pitch at the WACA is generally a very balanced surface. The pace and bounce on this wicket allow the batters to play their strokes freely once they are set. Besides, the pacers who can hit the hard length will also find success on this track.

    WPL, Hundred, WBBL Find New Windows in Women’s FTP

    The WPL, Hundred and WBBL have been allotted new windows in the women’s FTP for 2025-29.

    BCCI moving WPL has forced Cricket Australia to move women’s marquee summer fixtures from mid-January to February-March to avoid a clash with the most lucrative women’s franchise league.

    The 2024-25 Ashes which begins on January 12 will be the last international matches Australia will host until January 2029.

    Australia’s marquee home series in their new window is a tour of India for one test, three ODIs and three T20Is after the WPL in January-February 2026.

    The ICC Women’s ODI Championship has been extended to 11 teams in the New FTP with the addition of Zimbabwe. This follows the addition of Bangladesh and Ireland to the ongoing cycle which will culminate with the 2025 ODI World Cup in India.

    With the expansion of the women’s championship, all countries will play four teams at home and four away over a three-year cycle. In their maiden appearance in the upcoming cycle, Zimbabwe will be hosting South Africa, West Indies, Ireland and Sri Lanka and will be touring India, New Zealand, Bangladesh and Pakistan.

    However, India and Pakistan will only play each other in world tournaments in the new FTP and not in a bilateral series.

    The ICC has introduced a T20 champions trophy to be held in Sri Lanka in 2027, which brings in a plan of playing at least one women’s global tournament each year.

    The tournament will feature six teams playing in 16 matches. The addition of this tournament to the women’s category means that three global events – the LA Olympics, the T20 World Cup and the Champions Trophy will be played in 12 months.

    Hence, there will be a total of five ICC events, two T20 World Cups, two ODI World Cups and a T20 Champions Trophy in 2027.

    The ODI World Cup will have 10 teams playing 48 matches from 2029 while the T20 World Cup will be expanded to 12 teams playing 33 matches from 2026.

    West Indies women will be playing test cricket after more than 20 years in the new Future tour programme. They will be hosting one test as part of a multi-format series in March 2026, play England at home in 2027 and will play a test match against South Africa in 2028.

    West Indies last played a test against Pakistan in 2003-24, against Pakistan and have only played 12 tests. Meanwhile, they will also play against Australia and South Africa in away tests in 2026, while hosting Australia and England later in the cycle.

    Bengal Cricket Team released their Ranji Trophy Squad for next two matchees against Karnataka and Madhya Pradesh. Here the Indian Fast Bowler Mohammed Shami’s name wasn’t listed on the Squad.

    It appears to be a huge setback for the Fast Bowler who is looking forward to make his come back to the Indian team for the Border Gavaskar Trophy.

    Mohammed Shami’s last appearance for Team India was in the Men’s ODI World Cup 2023 Final against Australia in Ahmedabad last year. After the World Cup he faced an injury on his left Achilles heel and later during the recovery in the rehab he suffered from the swelling on this Knee.

    Last Month, Shami reported that he is 100% Pain Free and he would like to start playing the matches once the doctor confirms. But here as he wasn’t included to the squad list, it would be a big blow for this come back.

    Abhimanyu Easwaran, Mukesh Kumar and Abhishek Porel misses out as they are in Australia Tour to represent India A Team. Also, Akash Deep Singh was named in Indian Test Team and he will be missing out as well.

    Still it didn’t get Shami to the squad list and it should be huge disappointment for the Fast Bowler.

    Ranji Trophy Bengal Team Wicket Keeper Batsmen Wriddhiman Saha recently annouced about his retirement.

    Delhi Cricket Board chief Rohan Jaitley is likely to become the new BCCI secretary and will be replacing outgoing Jay Shah who will be taking over the ICC chairman role on December 01.

    Shah has been unanimously elected as the next chairman of the International Cricket Council (ICC) in August and will be taking over on December 01.

    Rohan Jaitley who is the current president of the Delhi Cricket Association, and Anil Patel, the secretary of the Gujarat Cricket Association will compete for the posts. Shah has been the secretary of the BCCI since 2019, after entering the cricket administration through the Gujarat Cricket Association in 2009.

    Shah has been instrumental in the BCCI’s functioning, notably during the Covid 19 pandemic.

    Meanwhile, Rohan Jaitley’s journey in cricket administration began about four years ago when he was elected as the president of the Delhi and District Cricket Association, a position his father held for 14 years.

    He was re-elected unopposed for a second term, underscoring his acceptance and effectiveness in the role.

    Under his leadership, the DDCA has seen several reforms and improvements. Jaitley has been successful in hosting five ODI World Cup matches at the Arun Jaitley Stadium and initiated the inaugural edition of the Delhi Premier League, which has featured notable cricketers like Rishabh Pant and Ishant Sharma.

    Roger Binny is set to continue as the president of the BCCI and oversee the operation of the board while working closely with the newly elected secretary.

    Rohit Sharma & Virat Kohli’s Test Match Performance in 2024 – Complete Details

    The India star batters Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli had some serious blowback in the test format ahead of the highly anticipated Border Gavaskar Trophy which is set to begin on 22nd November 2024.

    During the third and final tests of the New Zealand tour of India 2024, Virat and Rohit were dismissed for low scores. Rohit Sharma scored 18 and 11 runs in the Mumbai test while Virat Kohli had scores of 4 and 1 in the match. His woes against spinners continued as he handed a catch to Daryl Mitchell at slips.

    The underwhelming performance of the star batters in the home tests against Bangladesh and Kiwis has raised concerns ahead of the high-profile BGT series. Only a massive win in the series would help India’s WTC final spot without depending on other teams’ match results.

    Rohit Sharma had the best form in T20 cricket this year with an average of 36.13 and a strike rate of 154.66. In the ongoing WTC 2023-25 cycle, Rohit scored 833 runs in 14 tests with an average of 33.32 including three centuries and four fifties.

    In the year 2024, Rohit opened and scored 588 runs in 11 tests with an average of 29.40 including two centuries and two fifties. This average has been the lowest for him in a calendar year since he emerged as an opener in the format in 2019.

    After the series defeat, India moved to the second spot while Australia moved to the top spot in the WTC points table. The result of the Australia tests will have a huge impact on India’s third straight qualification for the WTC finals.

    With the retained players list announced on October 31, the focus has shifted to the updates for the date and venue for the IPL 2025 mega auction.

    According to some reports, the event is scheduled for November 24 and 25 in Riyadh, though an official confirmation from BCCI is yet to be revealed.

    Sources indicate that the final arrangements are in progress and an announcement is anticipated very soon.

    However, scheduling complications would arise as the auction dates coincide with India’s first test match against Australia in Perth, starting on November 22 at Perth.

    Kolkata Knight Riders

    Disney Star, who holds the broadcast rights for both the IPL and the Australia-India tests, is keen to avoid a direct overlap between the events. But the due to time difference with Australia, the auction, if held in the afternoon would likely avoid clashes with the match broadcast.

    With the IPL 2025 mega auction around the corner, anticipation is high as franchises prepare to make pivotal bids on high-profile players. Players like Rishabh Pant, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul, Ishan Kishan and Arshdeep Singh will enter into the auction pool, each renowned for their impact in the T20 format.

    These players have been invaluable assets for any franchise aiming for a strong 2025 season. Several franchises have already declared their retention, these five players will undoubtedly be at the centre of intense bidding wars.

    Pant’s explosive batting skills with a dynamic leadership potential and KL Rahul’s consistency with the bat are especially appealing attributes in a fast-paced tournament in the IPL.

    Reports suggest that BCCI officials have already conducted preliminary visits to Saudi Arabia to assess potential venues.

    A second delegation is expected to travel to the Gulf nation on Monday to finalize details. While Jeddah was initially considered, Riyadh the capital has emerged as the most likely host city for the two-day auction.

    Given this move outside India, IPL franchises are urging BCCI to finalize the venues and dates promptly to allow enough time for travel and logistical arrangements. With a retention deadline of October 31, teams are working to finalize their player lists shifting focus to the upcoming auction.

    Lloyd Pope took South Australia to their first Sheffield Shield victory over Victoria in nine years claiming six wickets in the match. In a thrilling clash at Adelaide Oval, Pope picked 74/6 to restrict for 207 of an unlikely target of 346.

    Victoria is likely to claim a draw with four wickets in hand and 30 minutes left before stumps. On a dry four pitch and with SA having driven the game since being sent into bat on the first morning.

    With regular front-end bowlers Brendon Doggett, Nathan McAndrew and Jordan Buckingham on Australia A duty and Wes Agar and Spencer Johnson unavailable after injuries, spin heavy attack against their nemesis.

    Before this season’s opening shield fixture, New South Wales at Cricket Central, Pope’s red ball appearance for SA in the past four years was against Victoria in 2021-22.

    “I hope I’ve improved over four years,” said Pope. “There’s been a few ups and downs in my career, and I feel like I’m bowling really well at the moment.

    “Ben (Manenti, fellow spinner) is also bowling really well and making runs, so the team hasn’t needed a leggie for a while.

    “Hopefully that will change for my favour but it’s just nice to see the team winning, as long as I can contribute whether playing two games or every game.”

    “This wicket was perfect for cricket in general, and then spun heaps right at the end, which was really nice, so the general chat was just keep the stumps in play, bowl good balls – pretty boring stuff,” Pope said.

    “And Kez (Carey) was saying that to me with one wicket left to go and I was getting a bit excited. He was just saying ‘process, process, process’.

    “He’s a Test keeper whose played 30-odd Tests and knows what he’s doing, probably a little bit more than I do.”

    He spoke about the enthusiasm for defeating someone else’s who they haven’t beaten in a while.

    “It’s nice to beat anyone, let alone someone you haven’t beaten for a while,” Pope said.

    “We believe that our cricket is just going up and up, so I think the squad mentality is really good.

    “Not just a first eleven, but hopefully a squad that can win a Shield and a one-day cup.”

    Both sides will be clashing once again on Australia one-day cup on November 06 at Karren Rolton Oval.

    Veteran Wk-batter Wriddhiman Saha has announced his retirement from all forms of cricket. He wrote on social media that his cricketing journey will come to an end by the end of the ongoing Ranji trophy campaign.

    “After a cherished journey in cricket, this season will be my last. I am honoured to represent Bengal one final time, playing only in the Ranji Trophy before I retire,” Saha wrote in a post on X (formerly Twitter).

    “Thank you to everyone who has been part of this incredible ride, your support has meant the world. Let’s make this season one to remember…”

    Saha made his last test appearance in 2021 against New Zealand. Despite playing a crucial knock in the series, the new team management under Rahul Dravid decided to phase out Saha from the team.

    He has played over 40 tests and scored 1353 runs in the format while, scored only 41 runs in 9 ODIs.

    Making his FC debut in 2007, Saha played for Bengal for over 15 years before being transferred to Tripura.

    The former Cricket Association of Bengal chief Avishek Salmiya attempted to persuade Saha to stay, but he indicated that he might not continue playing for Bengal.

    After a conversation with Sourav Ganguly, Saha returned to Bengal this season. So far, his return hasn’t been noted as he has zero runs and made three catches across two matches.

    One of the finest wicket-keepers of India reportedly doesn’t plan to feature in the India Premier League 2025 season.

    Saha was not retained by Gujarat Titans where he represented the side for three years. He is also one of the players who was part of every season of the IPL since its inception in 2008.

    He has also represented five franchises, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), Chennai Super Kings (CSK), Punjab Kings (PBKS), Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Gujarat Titans (GT).

    After the recent series loss to New Zealand in the home Test series, the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia is now the Indian cricket team’s only hope to stay eligible for the WTC.

    New Zealand recorded a historic Test series win in India with a whitewash. Meanwhile, the India A squad is in Australia, playing an unofficial Test match against Australia A.

    Ruturaj Gaikwad captained the India A squad, but Australia A won the first unofficial Test match by 7 wickets. The batting unit remains a major concern.

    Youngsters Devdutt Padikkal and Sai Sudharsan stood out, lifting the team with steady batting and emerging as the leading run-scorers for India A in the first unofficial Test match.

    As per the reports, BCCI is sending KL Rahul and Dhruv Jurel to join the India A team in Australia for the 2nd Unoffocial Test Match.

    Dhruv JurelDhruv Jurel is expected to replace Ishan Kishan in the second unofficial Test match, which is set to start on November 7.

    Dhruv Jurel was benched for the Test series against Bangladesh and New Zealand, with Rishabh Pant being India’s primary wicketkeeper. Additionally, KL Rahul was dropped after playing three games in the home season.

    Officials want both Jurel and Rahul to get some game time to maximize their potential.

    Rohit Sharma is likely to miss the series opener due to personal reasons. Jasprit Bumrah will lead the Indian National Cricket Team in the Perth Test match, starting November 22.
