Today is March 28, and once again big news has come out regarding IPL 2025. In this blog, we are going to give you eight important updates, which are related to all the IPL teams and the cricket world. Let’s discuss these news in detail one by one.
1. Big news for Chennai Super Kings – Pati Rana’s return
There is a relief news for Chennai Super Kings (CSK). The team’s leading fast bowler Pati Rana is recovering rapidly from injury. CSK head coach Stephen Fleming has confirmed that his recovery process is going faster than expected and he can join the team soon. Earlier it was speculated that Pati Rana might be out for the entire season, but now it is clear that he will return to the field soon. This will strengthen the bowling attack of CSK.
However, on the other hand, the CSK team management had also started looking for a possible replacement. The team had kept some Indian bowlers on standby so that they could be included if needed. But now it is clear from Fleming’s statement that Pati Rana will soon be seen playing for CSK. Now it remains to be seen how soon he returns to his form after his return and strengthens the team. This is a great news for CSK fans, as the team needs his experience and fast bowling.
2. New all-rounder joins RCB – Krish Bhagat
Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) have included Punjab all-rounder Krish Bhagat in the team as their reserve player. There can be many reasons behind this decision, such as potential injured players or strengthening the team’s bench strength. Krish Bhagat has performed brilliantly in domestic cricket and is considered an effective all-rounder. He also performed brilliantly during net practice recently, which impressed the team management.
The coach and captain of RCB have said that they may consider giving Bhagat an opportunity soon. If any main player of the team gets injured or a change is needed due to poor form, then Krish Bhagat can get a chance. Now it remains to be seen whether RCB will include him in the playing XI or he will remain with the team as a reserve player.
3. Chennai vs RCB match – Historical record
Today a big match will be played between Chennai Super Kings and Royal Challengers Bangalore in IPL 2025. This match will be held at Chennai’s home ground Chepauk Stadium. The matter of concern for RCB is that they last won at Chepauk in 2008. That is, RCB has not won on this ground for the last 17 years. This is a big record which the team will have to put all its strength to break.
On the other hand, CSK would like to strengthen their excellent home record by winning this match. This match is going to be very exciting, as both the teams have started this season with a win and they would like to maintain their momentum.
4. Shardul Thakur’s great comeback
Lucknow Super Giants star bowler Shardul Thakur has made a tremendous comeback in this IPL season. He was included in the team in place of Moin Khan, and he performed brilliantly in just two matches to become the Purple Cap holder. Shardul has taken a total of six wickets in the last two matches, out of which he took four wickets in the last match. During his brilliant spell, he was also close to taking a hat-trick.
His comeback has made the bowling attack of Lucknow Super Giants even stronger. Now it remains to be seen whether he is able to maintain this momentum till the end of the tournament or not.
5. Big change in Lucknow’s dressing room
After the last match of Lucknow Super Giants, team owner Sanjeev Goenka openly praised captain Rishabh Pant. He also gave Pant a special cap as a mark of respect. This change is also important because after the defeat in the last match, questions were being raised on Pant’s captaincy. But now the team owner has supported him.
6. Bad news for Delhi Capitals – T Natarajan’s injury
Delhi Capitals bought T Natarajan at a high price in this season’s mega auction. But so far he has not been able to play a single match for the team. According to reports, Natarajan is not fully fit yet and is recovering from injury. The team management hopes that he will return soon, but there is no official confirmation of this.
If Natarajan is unable to return soon, Delhi Capitals may have to include another bowler in the team in his place.
7. Rohit Sharma may withdraw from England Test series?
According to reports, Indian captain Rohit Sharma may be out of the upcoming Test tour of England. It is being told that he will not join this tour due to personal reasons.
If Rohit Sharma withdraws from this tour, then the command of Team India can be handed over to Jasprit Bumrah.
8. Dinesh Karthik invited RCB team to his home
