Indian Premier League

A controversy erupted earlier this week when the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) initially decided not to fly the Indian flag at Karachi's National Stadium for the Champions Trophy. However, after a video of the incident went viral on social media, the International Cricket Council (ICC) stepped in. Following discussions between officials from the two boards, the Indian flag has now been hoisted at the stadium ahead of the tournament's opening match between Pakistan and New Zealand. source https://www.indiatvnews.com/sports/cricket/champions-trophy-2025-pcb-takes-u-turn-as-indian-flag-flies-high-in-karachi-2025-02-19-976951

South Africa have got some momentum going into the Champions Trophy with a narrow win against the Pakistan Shaheens in the informal warm-up fixture in Karachi on Monday, February 17. Wiaan Mulder is really pushing for that No 7 spot to be his own and might have just confirmed his place with an all-round show with both bat and ball as the Proteas chased down 322 runs with an over left and contributions through the order, starting from the openers to the middle and the lower order. source https://www.indiatvnews.com/sports/cricket/south-africa-win-their-champions-trophy-warm-up-match-bangladesh-lose-in-dubai-ahead-of-india-clash-2025-02-18-976745

West Indies all-rounder Deandra Dottin has taken to the Women's Premier League (WPL) like fish to water. Dottin, who lit up the last year's Women's T20 World Cup in the UAE has brought destruction and power to the WPL with that Caribbean flavour and was the first one to admit herself that she was the missing piece for the WPL. In the two games so far in the 2025 edition of the WPL, Dottin scored a 13-ball 25 in the first match against RCB before making a telling contribution with both bat and ball in the Gujarat Giants' first win on Sunday, February 16. source https://www.indiatvnews.com/sports/cricket/i-was-a-missing-piece-for-the-wpl-deandra-dottin-leaves-commentators-in-splits-with-her-response-after-good-start-for-gg-gujarat-giants-2025-02-17-976555
