Safety measures are being taken for IPL 2025 Qualifier 1 and Eliminator in Mullanpur. In the aftermath of the tensions between India and Pakistan, security has been tightened for the two matches in New Chandigarh. One mustn’t forget that Mullanpur Stadium is just 250 kilometres away from the Pakistan border.
T Dilip back due to Rohit Sharma?
On May 27, BCCI brought T Dilip back as India’s fielding coach. Just two months back, Dilip’s contract had ended, and the board didn’t renew it. Without a coach since then, the BCCI brought him back for the England tour. It turns out that ODI captain Rohit Sharma had requested head coach Gautam Gambhir to bring Dilip back and he obliged.
Bumrah should’ve been India Test captain
Former England spinner Monty Panesar thinks that the BCCI should have gone with Jasprit Bumrah as India’s Test captain. He thinks that Shubman Gill hasn’t yet proved himself as a batter in red-ball cricket and picking him over India’s best player in Bumrah doesn’t seem like the right choice.

Ashwin questions Pant as LSG captain
Ravichandran Ashwin doesn’t think that Rishabh Pant did the right thing by withdrawing Digvesh Rathi’s Mankad appeal against Jitesh Sharma. He thinks as LSG’s captain, Pant should have backed Rathi. RCB fans and spirit-of-the-game believers would have gone against Rathi due to his actions and Ashwin thinks Pant should have had his bowler’s back.
