The BCCI has also been approached by Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH). The Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) are expected to top the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 points table. And lastly, Sunil Gavaskar wants a major role change in IPL going forward.
India Test squad for England to be announced soon
India’s squad for the England Test series will be out in the next two weeks, by May 20. The information comes from BCCI Secretary Devajit Saikia. Although he didn’t provide names of players in contention, he confirmed a month before the tour starts, June 20, that the squad will be out.
SRH complain about HCA to BCCI
SRH has written to the BCCI again complaining about the Hyderabad Cricket Association (HCA). They aren’t satisfied with how the match against Delhi Capitals couldn’t be completed. They blame the HCA for not covering the entire ground with covers and an inadequate drainage system, which prevented the game from resuming and knocked them out of IPL 2025.
Someone wants Rohit Sharma gone as captain
A senior player in Team India’s Test side wants to usurp Rohit Sharma as captain. Before the India vs England Test series, a player part of the current red-ball setup has expressed his desire to lead the team. However, the BCCI has denied them this opportunity, as they are already grooming someone else as Rohit’s successor.
