TNPL 2025: Angry Ravi Ashwin Argues With Female Umpire Over LBW Decision, Video Goes Viral
TNPL 2025 | iDream Tiruppur Tamizhans vs Dindigul Dragons | Star Sports #TNPLOnJioStar #TNPL #TNPL2025 pic.twitter.com/Csc2ldnRS3 — Star Sports Tamil (@StarSportsTamil) June 8, 2025
Tiruppur Bowlers Dominate
Tiruppur's bowling unit was on fire, bundling out Dindigul for just 93 runs in 16.2 overs. Only three Dindigul batters managed to reach double figures. Shivam top-scored with 30 runs. Right-arm pacer Esakkimuthu starred with four wickets, while Sai Kishore picked up two important scalps.
Raheja Seals It with a Stylish Knock
Chasing the low total, Tiruppur had no trouble. Wicketkeeper-batter Tushar Raheja led the charge with a brilliant unbeaten 65. Tiruppur won the match by 9 wickets with 49 balls to spare, showing complete control throughout the chase.
Ashwin's Tough Phase Continues
Ashwin's poor run with the bat and ball is continuing. After a forgettable IPL 2025 season with Chennai Super Kings, where he took only 7 wickets and scored 33 runs in 9 matches, the veteran may be released by the franchise next year. He was also dropped from the playing XI in a few games this season.
Surprise Retirement Last Year
In December last year, Ashwin shocked everyone by announcing his retirement from international cricket in the middle of a Test series against Australia. He ended his Test career as India's second-highest wicket-taker with 537 wickets in 106 matches, just behind Anil Kumble's 619.

'If Shreyas Iyer Was Pakistani Then...': Ex-Batter Makes Bold Statement
Last Updated: Iyer last played a T20I match for India on December 3, 2023, in Bengaluru and scored 53 runs from 37 balls in that fixture. Middle-order batter Shreyas Iyer made a strong case for selection in India's T20I squad for the 2025 Asia Cup by scoring 604 runs in 17 matches of IPL 2025 for Punjab Kings with a strike rate of 175.07, but despite that, the 30-year-old Mumbai cricketer was ignored by the Ajit Agarkar-led senior India men's selection committee on Tuesday (August 19) for a place in India's 15-member squad. Iyer's snub from the Asia Cup squad, along with the likes of Yashasvi Jaiswal, surprised fans as well as India greats like Ravichandran Ashwin and Abhishek Nayar. Iyer's exclusion from the Suryakumar Yadav-led side has also surprised former Pakistani batter Basit Ali. According to him, Iyer should have been in the Indian team. While speaking with former Pakistani wicketkeeper-batter Kamran Akmal on a YouTube show 'Game Time', Basit said, 'Shreyas Iyer, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Mohammed Siraj and Mohammed Shami agar Pakistan mein hote na, ye log A category mey hote (These would have been in Pakistan's A category)." ' Iyer ke saath jyadati ho gayi hai. Unko team mey hona chahiye (It was unfortunate that Shreyas Iyer has not been picked)," he added. Iyer last played a T20I match for India on December 3, 2023, against Australia in Bengaluru, and in that contest, he scored 53 runs from 37 balls as a No. 3 batter. In the 15-member Indian team picked for the premier continental event set to be played from September 9 to 28 in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, Shubman Gill returns as vice-captain. The 25-year-old right-handed batter from Punjab, who is the captain of the Indian men's Test cricket team, last played a 20-over match for India on July 30, 2024, against Sri Lanka in Pallekele. He was preferred over Yashasvi Jaiswal. Jaiswal, who has 723 runs to his name in 23 T20Is played so far, has scored more runs, sixes, and fours than Gill and even has a better batting average and strike rate than him. In the 2025 edition of the Indian Premier League, Jaiswal played all 14 league matches for Rajasthan Royals and scored 559 runs with a strike rate of 159.71. view comments Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Watch: Hardik Pandya Shreds Jasprit Bumrah In Unseen Video, Pacer Gives Apt Reply
Last Updated: Jasprit Bumrah showed Hardik Pandya who's the boss during a nets session for Mumbai Indians. IPL franchise Mumbai Indians have shared an unseen video of skipper Hardik Pandya and ace speedster Jasprit Bumrah engaging in a captivating duel during a center-wicket practice session at this year's Indian Premier League. Both MI stars showcased their competitive intensity, with neither willing to give up an inch. The duel between the two Indian aces started with Pandya hitting Bumrah for a six straight down the ground, having picked up the delivery early. The allrounder followed by sending a wayward fuller ball for what would have been an easy four through the fine-leg region. At this point, Pandya appeared to have the upper hand. Bumrah then responded with a characteristic inch-perfect yorker that even the powerful Pandya couldn't handle. Despite standing deep in the crease, Pandya couldn't get his bat down in time to fend off Bumrah's searing yorker, which shattered the base of the leg-stump. Pandya seemed impressed by the quality of the delivery, while Bumrah wore a wry smile as he turned and walked back to his mark. In the background, other Mumbai Indians players and support staff could be heard applauding Bumrah's yorker, shouting 'well bowled!!" in appreciation. The pinpoint yorker came shortly after Bumrah's return to competitive cricket following a grueling back injury rehab. The lethal pacer missed the first three games of MI's IPL 2025 campaign as he awaited fitness clearance from NCA physios and medical staff, sustained at the start of the second innings of the New Year's Test in Sydney. Bumrah developed excessive stress on his back after bowling 151.2 overs and taking 32 wickets in the series against Australia. Despite the injury, he emerged as one of MI's top performers of the season, claiming 18 wickets in 12 games with an impressive economy rate of 6.77. Meanwhile, Pandya inspired Mumbai's turnaround after a poor start, scoring runs at a strike rate of 163.50 and taking 14 wickets. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Ex-Selector Questions Harshit Rana's Selection: 'Clearly He Has Gambhir's...'
Last Updated: Jatin Paranjape questions Shreyas Iyer's Asia Cup 2025 snub and Harshit Rana's selection over Prasidh, noting Iyer's strong IPL 2025 performance and Gambhir's backing for Rana. Former India cricketer and selector Jatin Paranjape has questioned the fates of batter Shreyas Iyer and Harshit Rana for the country's Asia Cup 2025 squad selection. He said 'at least three or four players' could have made way for Iyer, who was snubbed, while Rana's inclusion over IPL 2025 Purple Cap winner Prasidh was a 'surprise' and a suggestion that he had the 'full backing' of coach Gautam Gambhir. Shreyas took Punjab Kings to the final of the league, apart from scoring 604 at a brilliant strike rate of 175. Chief selector Ajit Agarkar was asked the reason behind his snub, and he said that it wasn't the Mumbaikar's fault and there wasn't a space for him, asking in return who could have been dropped to make way. 'As always, it's a very strong Indian team that will take the field at the Asia Cup," Paranjape told IANS. 'T20 is a format where India has done really well, and being the current world champions only adds to the confidence. The competition for places is so intense that any squad selection is bound to invite debate." 'For me, Shreyas Iyer's exclusion stands out, I felt he should have been part of this squad, and there are at least three or four players who could have made way for him. I was also a bit surprised to see Harshit Rana in the mix. Clearly, he has the coach's full backing, but I thought someone like Prasidh Krishna might have been a better pick," he added. While Prasidh is part of the reserves in the squad, Shreyas isn't. India's Full Squad For Asia Cup 2025: Suryakumar Yadav (captain), Shubman Gill (vice-captain), Abhishek Sharma, Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya, Shivam Dube, Axar Patel, Jitesh Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, Varun Chakaravarthy, Arshdeep Singh, Kuldeep Yadav, Sanju Samson and Harshit Rana. Standbys: Prasidh Krishna, Washington Sundar, Riyan Parag, Dhruv Jurel and Yashasvi Jaiswal view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
