ICC Champions Trophy 2025 | India VS Australia Match Highlights | Semifinal l Cricket

Virat Kohli executed a perfect batting display in a stiff 265-run chase as India beat Australia by 4 wickets in the ICC Champions Trophy semifinal. Kohli emphasised more on strike rotation in a slow Dubai track and scored 84 off 98 balls, an innings laced with just five 4s. He was involved in a crucial 91-run stand with Shreyas Iyer after India lost Shubman Gill and Rohit Sharma inside the first powerplay. Apart from Kohli, no other batters could reach their half-century but a calculated innings by Iyer and later KL Rahul certainly helped India's cause. Iyer scored 45 off 62 balls, while Rahul returned unbeaten on 42 off 34 balls. Hardik Pandya too made massive contribution as he banged three 6s and one 4 in his 24-ball 28, easing some pressure when Australia were sniffing a late comeback. Earlier, the Indian bowlers did an excellent job and folded Australia for 264 in 49.3 overs after they won the toss and opted to bat. Steve Smith dug deep and scored 73 off 96 balls, which was the highest from the Australian camp. Alex Carey also made a significant contribution and knocked 61 off 57 balls. Meanwhile, India's biggest nemesis Travis Head managed 39 off 33 after being dropped by Mohammed Shami in the first over. The Indian quick was the leading wicket-taker from the Indian camp as he returned with three scalps and gave 48 runs in 10 overs.

IND vs NZ highlights, Day 3, 1st Test India 231 3, trails by 125 runs

India vs New Zealand 1st Test, Day 3 Highlights: The last thing India would have wanted was Virat Kohli getting out on the final delivery of Day 3 in the ongoing Test against New Zealand at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. Kohli and Sarfaraz Khan were going strong in the middle and had added 136 runs for the third wicket before Glenn Phillips provided New Zealand with a much needed breakthrough. Phillips removed Kohli for 70 as India finished the day at 231/3, still trailing by 125 runs. Sarfaraz is present in the middle and is batting at 70. He will lead India's fight on Day 4. Earlier, Rohit Sharma and Yashasvi Jaiswal gave India a decent start in the second innings after New Zealand piled a massive 402 on the board, taking a lead of 356 runs. The pair added a 50-plus stand but India lost both openers post Tea. Ajaz Patel injected both blows as Yashasvi was stumped for 35, while Rohit got out at 52. Kohli and Sarfaraz then shouldered the responsibility and completed their respective half-centuries. Meanwhile, Rachin Ravindra scored a sensational ton to put New Zealand in the driver seat. Ravindra was the last Kiwi batter to be dismissed for 134(157). He stitched a century-plus stand with Tim Southee for the 8th wicket, taking the match away from India's grip. This was Ravindra's second Test ton. Mohammed Siraj ended Southee's stay in the middle for 65. India had resumed Day 3 on a strong note with Siraj and Jasprit Bumrah striking early. Siraj removed Daryl Mitchell for 18, who was caught by Yashasvi Jaiswal at gully. Bumrah then got rid of Tom Blundell. Ravindra Jadeja then made two inroads. The pair of Ravindra and Mitchell had started the day from the overnight score of 180/3, when the lead was 134 runs. Day 2 had witnessed an epic collapse as India were skittled for 46, which is the country's third lowest total in Tests. Five Indian batters (Virat Kohli, Sarfaraz Khan, KL Rahul, Ravindra Jadeja, and R Ashwin) got out for ducks. The opening day of the match was washed out entirely due to rain.

Team India register humiliating record, score 46 all out against New Zealand in Bengaluru

ndia's promising campaign in the ICC World Test Championship (WTC) took a devastating turn on Thursday (October 17) when they were dismissed for just 46 runs in their first innings of the opening Test in Bengaluru. This total marks the lowest score ever recorded by a team in a Test innings in India. India has surpassed New Zealand's previous record of 62 runs, set against India in December 2021, for the lowest Test score in the country. Kiwi bowlers wreaked havoc on the Rohit Sharma-led team, with Matt Henry emerging as the standout performer. He took five wickets, effectively dismantling India's batting lineup, and reached a milestone of 100 Test wickets, becoming the joint-second fastest Kiwi to achieve this feat, following Sir Richard Hadlee and Neil Wagner, in just 26 Tests. Henry was well-supported by fellow pacer Will O'Rourke, who took four wickets, finishing with figures of 4/22. India might regret their decision to bat first, as the pitch proved highly advantageous for seam bowlers. Skipper Rohit Sharma was the first wicket to fall on day two, after the entire first day was lost to rain. Once he was out, India's batting collapsed dramatically.
