IPL 2025 stats: RCB wins elusive title, Suryakumar Yadav shows his class
16 Consecutive scores of 25-plus for Suryakumar Yadav in the IPL 2025, the longest such streak for any batter in men's T20 cricket. Suryakumar passed Temba Bavuma's record on 26 May 2025 in MI's game against PBKSin Jaipur and extended his tally to two more. The South African had 13 successive scores of 25-plus runs between 2019 and 2020. Suryakumar, meanwhile, already holds the equivalent IPL record, having bettered Robin Uthappa's tally of 10 such consecutive scores made in 2014.

60 The number of balls to spare in Royal Challengers Bangalore's (RCB) victory over Punjab Kings (PK) in the first Qualifier in Mullanpur on 29 May 2025. This is the biggest such win in an IPL playoff/knockout game. After dismissing Punjab for a paltry 101, RCB reached its target in 10 overs. In doing so, RCB became the 10th side in IPL history to successfully chase a target in 10 or fewer overs. However, it was the first to do so in a playoff match.

This strike-rate is now the second-highest achieved by any IPL batter during the innings in which the player reached 1000 IPL runs. However, in terms of actual balls faced while reaching the respective 1000th run in IPL, Russell is by far the quickest with 545 balls, followed by Travis Head (575 balls) and Salt one more at 576 balls.

8-second rule at FIFA Club World Cup 2025, Explained: Why was Ulsan awarded a corner against Mamelodi Sundowns?
South Africa's Mamelodi Sundowns opened its FIFA Club World Cup 2025 campaign with a 1-0 win over South Korea's Ulsan FC on Tuesday. Iqraam Rayners scored in the 36th minute which was enough for the South African side to clinch all three points in the Group F match. During the match, the new eight-second rule for goalkeepers was seen being implemented. In the 83rd minute, the Sundowns 'keeper Ronwen Williams was deemed to have held the ball for longer than the prescribed eight seconds. ¡LA REGLA DE LOS 8 SEGUNDOS SE APLICA POR PRIMERA VEZ EN EL MUNDIAL DE CLUBES! ⏱️ El portero tardó en sacar y Turpin, siguiendo el reglamento, lo sancionó con córner en contra 👀@FIFACWC | Todos los partidos gratis en — DAZN Fútbol (@DAZNFutbol) June 18, 2025 This saw the on-field referee, Clement Turpin, award a corner to Ulsan. What is the new 8-second rule for goalkeepers? In a move to prevent time wasting, the International Football Association Board (IFAB) announced a new rule which would see goalkeepers who hold onto the ball for longer than eight seconds concede a corner. On-field referees will be aided in their decision-making by a visual five-second countdown. What was the previous law? Law 12.2 states that a goalkeeper has six seconds to release the ball before the opposing team is awarded an indirect free-kick but this has now been amended and the change will come into force next season. The new rule is said to implemented worldwide from July 1 onwards but the same is being applied to the revamped FIFA Club World Cup being held in the United States of America.

England Announces Playing XI For First Test Against India, Batter with 52 Average Dropped
England announced their Playing XI for first Test against India on Wednesday. The first Test will be played at Headingley, Leeds from June 20. Ben Stokes and Co. have retained Ollie Pope at number three for the first Test, dropping Jacob Bethell who did incredibly well for them in the previous tour. Pope Retained, Bethell Misses Out The decision to stick with vice-captain Ollie Pope comes amid questions about his spot in the top order. While Pope showed glimpses of brilliance with a 171 against Zimbabwe, his record against top-tier teams like India and Australia remains concerning. In 18 combined Tests against the two, Pope averages just 22.05, well below his career average of 35.49. Jacob Bethell, 21, was in contention for a place after impressing with three half-centuries in as many Tests against New Zealand last year. He also recently scored 82 in an ODI against West Indies and boasts a healthy average of 52 from his limited Test appearances. However, despite the buzz, he's yet to notch a professional century. Bethell missed the Zimbabwe Test due to IPL duties with Royal Challengers Bengaluru, and while Stokes initially hinted at Bethell's immediate return, he later clarified his comments were about the squad selection being misunderstood. According to Alastair Cook, Bethell opting to play IPL has not went in his favour. Bowling Changes and Stability Elsewhere England have made two changes from the side that played against Zimbabwe. Chris Woakes and Brydon Carse come in for Sam Cook and Gus Atkinson, strengthening the pace attack. The rest of the lineup remains unchanged, with familiar faces like Joe Root, Ben Stokes, Harry Brook, and debutant keeper-batter Jamie Smith all holding their spots. England's XI for the First Test vs India: Zak Crawley, Ben Duckett, Ollie Pope, Joe Root, Harry Brook, Ben Stokes, Jamie Smith, Chris Woakes, Brydon Carse, Josh Tongue, Shoaib Bashir. India Squad for England Test Series: Shubman Gill (captain), Rishabh Pant (wk) (vice-captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, KL Rahul, Sai Sudharsan, Abhimanyu Easwaran, Karun Nair, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Ravindra Jadeja, Dhruv Jurel (wk), Washington Sundar, Shardul Thakur, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, Prasidh Krishna, Akash Deep, Arshdeep Singh, Harshit Rana, Kuldeep Yadav

India vs England: Nitish, Shardul pace allrounder's call Gill must make
Kolkata: Leeds being the venue for the first Test between India and England, it won't be out of place to think that there is going to be a toss-up between Ravindra Jadeja and Kuldeep Yadav for the lone spinner's spot. Assuming three specialist pacers will be picked, it leaves one spot for the seaming allrounder if India want to assert themselves with five wicket-taking options. It also would require finding an option that adds depth to the batting as well. The Indian team management will have to choose between Shardul Thakur and Nitish Reddy for that allrounder's spot. A good headache to have, most would say, but a tricky selection nevertheless considering the small but key role allrounders tend to assume in England. You don't have to look beyond the drawn 1-1 tour of 2002 when Sanjay Bangar was used as a floating batting and bowling option to catch England off-guard. Achieving the same or more should be the idea here. Reddy's Test debut was in Australia where a hundred at Melbourne helped him average 37.25 across five Tests. But the ball doesn't seam as much in Australia as it does in England. That negates Reddy's recent form factor to a great degree. Fast bowling coach Morne Morkel has said he wants Reddy to bowl more, and find 'that magical ball'. Ravi Shastri weighed in on the issue, saying on ICC Review on Tuesday: 'I know it'll be a tough one between Shardul and Nitish, but you have to see who bowls how much. If Reddy is going to give you 12,14 overs, then he might get the nod because of his batting.' The thing is, Reddy hasn't bowled much in recent months. In fact, he bowled just five overs across 13 matches during this IPL, having just recovered from a side strain. Before that in Australia, he bowled just 44 overs in five Tests, meaning his contribution with the bat ended up being an inadvertent gain. India can't afford to go with four bowling options, especially when England know that Jasprit Bumrah could opt out of two Tests to keep himself viable for the entire series. Picking Reddy thus could entail the risk of conceding the bowling edge to England. Thakur, on the other hand, has taken 35 wickets bowling almost 235 overs in the last Ranji Trophy, and bowled 34 overs in 10 IPL matches. He has the knack of breaking partnerships, and can play a match-saving knock. Most importantly, he played four of his 11 Tests in England. His pace shouldn't bother batters, but Thakur's ability to get the ball to move is something England would be wary of. Batting experience in England too counts, unless you want to momentarily ignore the jittery note with which India's specialist batting would be approaching the first Test after the retirements of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. Rishabh Pant at 6, Jadeja at 7 and Thakur at 8 thus makes a lot of sense, especially in the wake of the hundred Thakur scored in the intra-squad warmup game the touring party played. 'It's always exciting to play in this part of the world,' Thakur said in an interview to on Tuesday after that game was wrapped up. 'The biggest challenge is the weather, sometimes it's cloudy, sometimes bright and sunny, and you need to adjust your game quickly, whether you're batting or bowling.' Something he achieved with distinction in 2021. Series tied 1-1 after three Tests, India were in trouble after being reduced to 127/7 in the first innings at the Oval. Thakur blasted 57 off 36 balls to take India to a respectable 191, before scoring another fifty — 60 off 72 balls — in the second innings to help set England a 368-run target. England's openers put on 100 but Thakur made the ball hold its line to Rory Burns, who edged it to Pant. Joe Root batted doggedly till he was dislodged by an innocuous delivery from Thakur that made him play on to his stumps. Safe to say India couldn't have won that Test, or wrested a number of highs throughout the series, without Thakur doing what he does best. To not seek the same comfort seems unwise, especially now that in Shubman Gill India have a learning captain. Defeats, if any, wouldn't be held against him keeping in mind the larger scheme of things. But it should also not be forgotten how in his brief career Gill must have picked up some of the virtues of Kohli as a bowlers' leader. Choosing the specialists is always easy, till the mind starts playing games when it comes to the key positions. Trickiest of them all is that of the allrounder, at a venue like Headingley that has been kind to seamers. History says that between scoring a 30-40 run innings and bowling a couple of game-changing overs, India captains have almost always flocked towards the comfort of the former. That this isn't that sort of a conundrum only adds to the unpredictable flavour of the series.
