Babar Azam's father got into huge fight on social media with Kamran Akmal. "This child (Babar) never played under your captaincy, but you did play under his captaincy and got out for zero while he scored a century that day. Talking behind the backs of successful people is a compulsion of those who have failed," Babar Azam's father Siddique wrote on Instagram. Image credit: X (Formerly Twitter)
Kamran Akmal had said that Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan should be only selected for Test cricket. "In my opinion, they (Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan) should now be kept only for Test matches. Maybe after another six months, they should be considered only for Test cricket," Akmal said. Image credit: X (Formerly Twitter)
Babar Azam was not picked for three-match T20I series against Bangladesh. Pakistan cricket team won the series 3-0.

Ee Sala Cup Namdu! AB de Villiers joins crowd in Ahmedabad as Virat Kohli's RCB lift their first-ever IPL trophy after 17 years
The 18th season for Jersey No. 18 has finally come true! After a 17-year-long wait, Virat Kohli has finally laid his hands on the one trophy that always seemed just out of reach. In 2025, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) skipper Rajat Patidar made millions of dreams come true as RCB defeated Punjab Kings (PBKS) by 6 runs in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 final at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. There were tears in everyone's eyes at the venue as former RCB stars AB de Villiers and Chris Gayle joined the crowd to witness their beloved team lift the trophy at last. AB de Villiers was even seen getting emotional. Now, fans can proudly say, "Ee Sala Cup Namdu!" Ab de villiers and Virat Kohli are celebrating together 😭😭❤️❤️ 1st IPL trophy under new captain Rajat Patidar RCB became IPL champions for the first time, and it took 18 long years to achieve this historic feat. Under their new captain Rajat Patidar, RCB played some outstanding cricket — finishing second on the points table, winning Qualifier 1 against PBKS, and defeating the Punjab franchise once again in the final. Interestingly, after posting just 190 runs, many fans were skeptical. But as the saying goes, Josh Hazlewood has never lost a final — and RCB's bowling unit stepped up. Krunal Pandya was the pick of the bowlers, taking 2 wickets while conceding just 17 runs. Fans congratulate RCB Many took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to cheer for RCB and share emotional moments, with some mentioning how they saw grown men cry.

Who will win RCB vs PBKS final? Fans claim this photo has revealed winner of IPL 2025
Fans aren't just looking at stats or player performance and analysing photoshoots ahead of the much-awaited IPL 2025 final between Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Punjab Kings (PBKS). Fans have flooded Twitter and Instagram with wild theories based on the official pre-final photoshoots of both teams. A few IPL fans claimed that the photo shoot of the two team captains who reach the final has a hidden message that helps predict who will win. "Captain posing on the left has been winning the IPL Final since 2019," claimed one fan. He shared pictures of the pre-final photoshoots from the last seven IPL tournaments, claiming that the team whose captain stood on the left side in the photo won the final. Another fan shared the same theory and shared data for the last 18 years, showing every IPL winner corresponding to the position they took in the pre-final photoshoot. "Okay, I've data about photoshoot before final captain (standing on Left or Right) winner of IPL from 2015-2024," he wrote. Seasoned fans know that the IPL final often laughs in the face of predictions, but that hasn't stopped social media from playing detective. Whether or not these theories hold water, they've added to the pre-match buzz, with fans doing everything from photoshoot forensics to astrology-based predictions. Fans are leaving no stone unturned to help their favourite team lift the cup, as neither team has won an IPL final to date. RCB fans shared pictures of nazar tikas on the team's players, while Punjab Kings fans arranged for digital snaans for the team's photos. One fan even decorated his car in nimbu and mirchi garlands to ward off bad luck for RCB. The clash between RCB and PBKS will begin shortly. PBKS won the toss and has chosen to bowl first.
