IPL 2025 Highlights
The IPL 2025 season has already delivered some jaw‑dropping moments. Delhi Capitals chased a massive 210 runs against Lucknow Super Giants in Visakhapatnam, winning by just one wicket. Axar Patel’s first full‑time captaincy debut ended in triumph, and Ashutosh Sharma’s unbeaten 66 sealed the win. That game set the bar for high‑octane cricket this year.
Another headline‑grabbing spell came from Jofra Archer. In the opening match against Sunrisers Hyderabad, Archer gave away 76 runs in four overs – the most expensive spell in IPL history. Sunrisers turned it into a massive 286/6 total, showing how quickly fortunes can change.
Travis Head made fans gasp when he launched a 105‑meter six off Archer’s bowling, helping SRH dominate Rajasthan Royals in the powerplay. Meanwhile, the partnership of Rohit Sharma and Ryan Rickelton gave Mumbai Indians a solid start, though inconsistencies later raised questions about their playoff chances.
Off‑field Stories & Player News
Beyond the boundary, players are dealing with legal and personal challenges. Gujarat CID is probing a ₹450 crore chit‑fund case that links four Gujarat Titans, including Shubman Gill, as investors. The investigation is still unfolding, and the players are expected to give statements as victims.
On the policy front, Mohit Sharma teamed up with Virat Kohli to criticize BCCI’s new family‑travel restrictions for overseas tours. Their stance sparked a debate about player welfare versus national duty, especially after India’s recent series loss in Australia.
Injuries also shuffled team line‑ups. Lucknow Super Giants had to replace the promising fast bowler Mayank Yadav with New Zealand pacer Will O’Rourke after Yadav’s back issues resurfaced. Shardul Thakur stepped into LSG’s squad after Mohsin Khan’s knee injury, adding experience to their pace attack.
Stories of rising stars add a hopeful note. Shubham Dubey’s journey from a modest pan‑stall in Nagpur to a big IPL auction win for Rajasthan Royals shows that talent can break through any background.
