India’s star batter Shubman Gill retained the top spot in the latest update of the ICC rankings for men’s ODI batters. In addition, Afghanistan’s rising all-rounder Azmatullah Omarzai rose to the top of the all-rounder’s rankings after his phenomenal display at the ongoing ICC Champions Trophy 2025.
Star batter Virat Kohli once again displayed why he is rated so highly in white-ball cricket, more so in big-ticket tournaments, and as the master of run-chases, with his gritty half century helping India beat Australia by four wickets in the high-pressure semifinal of the ICC Champions Trophy in Dubai on Tuesday.
Riding on Virat Kohli's 84, KL Rahul (42 not out) and Hardik Pandya (28 off 24 balls) gave the finishing touches to India's chase of 265 to progress to the final of the eight-team competition.
With the Indian top order of Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, and Shreyas Iyer firing on all cylinders heading into their semifinal clash against Australia on Tuesday, Aussie skipper Steve Smith hailed his opponent batters’ ability to change gears.
While Kohli backed Smith when he made a return to the game, Smith has time and again spoken about how Kohli is a machine when it comes to scoring runs.
Nasser Hussain was also all praise for current Indian and England captains Virat Kohli and Eoin Morgan respectively.
India is one of the few teams that have the same skipper in Test Cricket, ODIs as well as T20Is.
About Dhoni, Ashwin said that he always maintained that the off-spinner is very skillful. Kohli, on the other hand, always put absolute belief in him.
Ben Stokes, who is vice-captain of the Test team, will be taking over the reins during their first Test against West Indies with Joe Root sitting out.
