ICC Hall of Fame 2025: Full list of inducted cricketers
MS Dhoni (AFP Photo) The ICC announced seven new additions to the ICC Hall of Fame on Monday, inducting a notable group of former greats at a gala event held at Abbey Road Studios in London. ICC Chair Jay Shah welcomed the new inductees, saying: "Through the ICC Hall of Fame, we pay tribute to the finest players the game has seen, individuals whose remarkable careers have shaped cricket's legacy and inspired generations," Shah said. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! 'This year, we are privileged to induct seven truly outstanding individuals into this prestigious group. On behalf of the ICC, I extend my heartfelt congratulations to each of them and hope they cherish this well-deserved recognition as a defining moment in their cricketing journey.' THE SEVEN INDUCTEES: MATTHEW HAYDEN Tests: 103 – 8,625 runs @ 50.73 ODIs: 161 – 6,133 runs @ 43.80 T20Is: 9 – 308 runs @ 51.33 A powerful opening batter who dominated even the fiercest fast bowlers, Matthew Hayden becomes part of the ICC Hall of Fame's exclusive club. With 30 Test centuries and an average over 50, his numbers in the longest format speak volumes. He was equally effective in ODIs, scoring three centuries in the 2007 ICC Men's Cricket World Cup, finishing as the tournament's top run-scorer. Hayden was part of two World Cup-winning squads and has since become a respected cricket commentator. "The ICC Hall of Fame includes many of my heroes of yesteryear as well as contemporaries whom I admired and enjoyed competing against," Hayden said. "Each of these players gave something to the game in their own way. It is incredible to be recognised along with them." HASHIM AMLA Tests: 124 – 9,282 runs @ 46.64 ODIs: 181 – 8,113 runs @ 49.46 T20Is: 44 – 1,277 runs @ 33.60 A calm and composed top-order batter, Hashim Amla was South Africa's anchor and a pillar of consistency. While his Test numbers were exceptional, his ODI performances were even more prolific. Amla's elegant stroke play and mental strength helped him notch 55 international centuries and become the first South African to score a Test triple century – 311* vs England in 2012. "It is an honour to be inducted into the ICC Hall of Fame, especially alongside Graeme," Amla said. "The Hall of Fame includes some of the most celebrated players in the history of cricket... such recognition feels surreal, and I am really thankful." Bombay Sport Exchange Ep. 6: Harish Thawani on cricket's TV market and the watershed moments MS DHONI Tests: 90 – 4,876 runs @ 38.08, 294 dismissals ODIs: 350 – 10,773 runs @ 50.57, 444 dismissals T20Is: 98 – 1,617 runs @ 37.60, 91 dismissals MS Dhoni, one of India's most successful captains and finishers, is a popular inclusion. His most iconic moment remains the six that clinched the 2011 World Cup. Dhoni revolutionised wicketkeeping and set the benchmark for finishing games in limited-overs formats. He remains the only captain to win all three major ICC white-ball titles — 2007 T20 World Cup, 2011 ODI World Cup, and 2013 Champions Trophy. "It is an honour to be named in the ICC Hall of Fame, which recognises the contributions of cricketers across generations and from all over the world," Dhoni said. "To have your name remembered alongside such all-time greats is a wonderful feeling. It is something that I will cherish forever." GRAEME SMITH Tests: 117 – 9,265 runs @ 48.25, 8 wickets ODIs: 197 – 6,989 runs @ 37.98, 18 wickets T20Is: 33 – 982 runs @ 31.67 One of the most successful Test captains in history, Graeme Smith led from the front as a gritty opening batter. Thrust into leadership at age 22, Smith flourished in the role and became a key figure in South Africa's rise to the No. 1 Test ranking. 'It feels amazing to be inducted into the ICC Hall of Fame alongside some legendary cricketers, all of whom have made significant contributions to the game in their own way," he said. "This is also a proud moment for South Africa, as two of us have got recognition this year.' DANIEL VETTORI Tests: 113 – 4,531 runs @ 30.00, 362 wickets ODIs: 295 – 2,253 runs @ 17.33, 305 wickets T20Is: 34 – 205 runs @ 12.81, 38 wickets A world-class left-arm spinner and handy lower-order batter, Daniel Vettori had an illustrious career. He was one of just three players to score 4,000+ Test runs and take 300+ wickets. Vettori captained New Zealand and now serves as Australia's assistant coach. 'Looking at the past inductees... one can see the outstanding talent and contribution they made to the game,' he said. "To gain recognition alongside them is simply overwhelming and I can't find words to describe the feeling.' SANA MIR ODIs: 120 – 1,630 runs @ 17.91, 151 wickets T20Is: 106 – 802 runs @ 14.07, 89 wickets A trailblazer for Pakistan women's cricket, Sana Mir becomes the first woman from her country to join the Hall of Fame. Beyond her on-field achievements, she's known for advocating body positivity, mental health, and pandemic relief work. 'From dreaming as a little girl that one day there would even be a women's team in our country to now standing here... this is a moment I couldn't have dared to imagine,' she said. 'I am incredibly grateful for this honour... and thank my teammates, coaches and family for all their support over the years.' SARAH TAYLOR Tests: 10 – 300 runs @ 18.75, 20 dismissals ODIs: 126 – 4,056 runs @ 38.26, 138 dismissals T20Is: 90 – 2,177 runs @ 29.02, 74 dismissals Widely considered one of the most gifted wicketkeepers in the women's game, Sarah Taylor's 14-year international career was filled with excellence behind the stumps and reliability with the bat. Taylor played a pivotal role in England's World Cup wins in 2009 and 2017, delivering when it mattered most. "Being inducted into the ICC Hall of Fame is one of the best moments of my life and truly feels like a dream come true," Taylor said. "Women's cricket has been thriving in recent years, and receiving this award during such a significant time makes it even more special."

Allu Arjun Arrives in Mumbai, Gears Up for Atlee-Deepika Padukone Film
Although early rumours suggested the film might have a two-hero storyline, Allu Arjun's team has confirmed that the actor will portray dual roles, adding an extra layer of intrigue to the narrative. The filming is set to begin in mid-2025, with a grand release planned for 2026. Meanwhile, Allu Arjun was also in the spotlight, after fans trended his name on X (formerly Twitter) following a tragic stampede that broke out outside Bengaluru's Chinnaswamy Stadium after Royal Challengers Bengaluru's (RCB) IPL victory on June 4. RCB captain Virat Kohli's name trended on X (formerly Twitter), after a section of the Internet felt he should be arrested too. The conversation erupted after Allu Arjun's arrested on December 13, 2024, by the Chikkadpally police in Hyderabad in connection with a similar tragic stampede at the premiere of Pushpa 2. As 'Arrest Virat Kohli' trend continued to soar on X, so did Allu Arjun. The South megastar was in the spotlight after fans rallied for fair treatment for both him and Kohli in connection with similar stampede incidents – just six months apart.

Wasim Akram's Life-Size Statue In Pakistan's Hyderabad Triggers Memes, Jokes On Social Media
The state of Pakistan cricket is in a complete mess as their team filed to live up to the expectations. From the league stage elimination in the ODI World Cup 2023 to the group stage exit in the T20 World Cup in 2024, Pakistan men's cricket team hit new lows in every tournament. Apart from the failure of the players, another aspect which marred the Pakistan cricket are the constant changes in their board. As a result of this downfall, cricket fans around the world are slowly forgetting the contributions made by the greats like Shoaib Akhtar, Wasim Akram, Imran Khan and others. Recently, former Pakistan skipper Wasim Akram was honoured with a life-size statue at Niaz Stadium in Hyderabad, Pakistan. However, this honour turned out to be a laughing stock for the viewers due to its bizarre appearance. The statute showed Akram doing his legendary bowling action and sported Pakistan's 1992 World Cup jersey. However, the face of the statue had some resemblance with famous Hollywood actor Sylvester Stallone and the fans showed no mercy. Wasim Akram looking at this statue — Asad 🇵🇸 (@A_sadkermit) June 5, 2025 Wasim Akram as modelled by Sylvester Stallone — AmerCric (@Amermalik12) June 5, 2025 Wasim Akram's statue at Hyderabad stadium @wasimakramlive fainted after watching this — Raza Hashmey (@papabureau87) June 5, 2025 Talking about Akram, the legendary pacer played 104 Tests and 256 ODIs for Pakistan between 1984 and 2003. In Tests, he took a whopping total of 414 wickets while in ODIs, he took 502 wickets. He announced his retirement from international cricket after Pakistan's elimination from the 2003 World Cup. After calling time on his playing career, Akram took up coaching jobs and even coached the IPL franchise Kolkata Knight Riders between 2010 to 2016. Earlier, during an interaction with VU Sports, Akram narrated an incident from IPL 2012, when SRK arranged a Boeing for the entire team, in order to give the players some rest before the knockout match. "I think this happened during the 2012 IPL season. Our knockout match was in Kolkata, and I remember we were going to arrive via, via some place. Shah Rukh Khan was there, so I asked him, 'Khan saab, ek request hai (Mr Khan, I have a request)'. I said, 'Ladke bade thak jayenge, hum kal pahunchenge, parso match hai. Toh agar ek private plane (The team will get extremely tired. We'll reach tomorrow, and the match is the day after. If a private plane could be arranged)...'" said Akram. "He said, 'Thak jayenge ladke? Koi problem nahi (They'll get tired you say, no problem)'. Within one hour, pura Boeing jahaaz khada tha for the whole team," Akram added.
