Consecutive setbacks in big tournaments and series

During the tenure of Gautam Gambhir, the Indian team could not perform as per expectations in many important matches and series. Many old records of the team were broken in all three formats, Test, ODI and T20 and after many years such a defeat was seen, which disappointed Indian cricket.

In the Indian cricket team, Virat Kohli is often known for his aggressive style and enthusiasm on the field. However, he also has a completely different look inside the dressing room. There Virat is not only a senior player but also a funny person. Team India’s young fast bowler Harshit Rana has recently shared such a funny incident related to Virat, which is much discussed.

Funny incident after Champions Trophy win

This incident happened immediately after the 2025 Champions Trophy win. Celebration was going on in the dressing room after India’s historic victory. During this time, Harshit Rana met Virat Kohli’s wife and Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma for the first time. Since it was their first meeting, Harshit addressed Anushka as “Madam” with full respect.

‘Madam why, sister-in-law tell?’

This statement of Harshit reached the ears of Virat Kohli. What happened next, Virat immediately took advantage of the opportunity and started teasing him. Harshit told in an interview that Virat laughingly told him, “Why are you speaking madam? Speak sister-in-law!”

Not only this, Virat did not stop here. He also jokingly told Anushka that this is the same boy who had showered champagne on me while celebrating the victory some time ago and now suddenly he is being so straightforward and saying “Madam”.

The biggest entertainer in the dressing room

Recalling this entire incident, Harshit Rana said that Virat Kohli likes to joke as he is sometimes seen having fun on the field too. Even though he looks very serious and aggressive on the field, he is one of the most cheerful players in the team. He believes that Virat knows how much pressure is on the players after a big tournament or between important matches, and in such a situation, light joking makes the atmosphere of the team better.

Despite being a senior, he behaved like an elder brother.

This incident clearly shows that Virat Kohli is not just a run machine or an aggressive leader, but he is also like an elder brother to the junior players. He leaves no stone unturned in making the new players feel comfortable. This is the reason why many young players of Team India consider Virat not only as their idol but also as their guide.

The year 2025 turned out to be such a chapter in Rohit Sharma’s career, which Indian cricket fans will remember for a long time. At the beginning of the year, when Rohit said goodbye to Test cricket, it seemed that perhaps now the impact of Hitman will be less. However, what happened after this proved that Rohit Sharma is still the biggest player in big matches.

The decision to retire from Test cricket was not easy, but Rohit himself made it clear that he now wants to focus completely on limited overs cricket. This decision also proved to be right, because his bat kept on fire throughout the year in ODI cricket. Big bowlers looked helpless in front of him and records kept breaking one after the other.

Captain Rohit shines in ICC Trophy

In the 2025 Champions Trophy, Rohit Sharma once again proved that he is not only a great batsman but also an excellent captain. His strategy and experience were clearly visible in helping India win the trophy. His captaincy innings of 76 runs in the final match put the team in a strong position and India won the ICC title. With this victory, Rohit’s name became one of the few captains after Dhoni who have won more than one ICC trophy.

Rain of records in ODI cricket

Rohit Sharma’s focus was clearly visible throughout the year, big runs and big innings. He scored centuries against strong teams like Australia and South Africa. Completing 50 centuries in international cricket is like a dream. Rohit also achieved this feat as an Indian batsman after Sachin and Virat. Not only this, Rohit Sharma also became the batsman who scored the most ODI centuries on Australian soil. By scoring 6 centuries, Rohit went ahead of even the greats like Kohli and Sangakkara.

In the matter of sixes also, he created a new history and left Pakistan’s Shahid Afridi behind. He has a record of hitting 355 sixes in international cricket.

Dominance remained in IPL 2025 also

Along with international cricket, Rohit Sharma’s name remained in discussion in IPL 2025 also. By crossing the 7,000 run mark, he included himself among the most successful batsmen of the league after Virat Kohli. Apart from this, by completing 300 sixes, he also made his special place in IPL history.

Gave a befitting reply to critics

At the beginning of the year, questions were raised regarding age and form, but by the end of 2025, Rohit Sharma answered every question with his performance. Even after his departure from Test, he showed that the era of Hitman is not over yet. Overall, 2025 was a year in Rohit Sharma’s career, where he proved that class and experience never get old.

Year Ender 2025: The year 2025 was full of emotions, ups and downs and historic achievements for Indian cricket. At some places the defeat disappointed and at some places the victory gave full opportunity to the fans to celebrate. The special thing was that both men and women teams gave such moments which cricket lovers will remember for a long time. Let’s take a look at those five big cricketing moments of 2025, which made this year special.

Women’s team became world champion for the first time

The biggest and emotional moment of 2025 was the Indian women’s cricket team winning the World Cup. Under the captaincy of Harmanpreet Kaur, India won the Women’s World Cup title for the first time. The start of the tournament was not easy. After the initial win, the team had to face defeat in three consecutive matches, but India made a comeback by defeating New Zealand in a ‘do or die’ match. After achieving the historic target of 339 runs against Australia in the semi-finals, the team reached the finals and created history by defeating South Africa there.

India’s dominance by winning the Champions Trophy

Along with the women’s team, the men’s team also gave the fans a chance to celebrate. Champions Trophy 2025 was very special for India. India defeated Bangladesh, Pakistan and New Zealand in the group stage. The 2023 World Cup final defeat against Australia was avenged in the semi-finals. India won its second ICC trophy in 12 months by defeating New Zealand in the final.

Domination over Pakistan in Asia Cup

Asia Cup 2025 was also emotionally special. Amidst the atmosphere of tension on the border, India performed brilliantly on the field. From the group stage to the Super-4 and then to the finals, India gave a tough fight to Pakistan and defeated them every time. In the final, India won the title on the basis of the strong batting of Tilak Verma and Shivam Dubey.

Historic test series draw in England

The Indian team’s tour of England was not easy without Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. India was lagging behind in the series, but in the last test, Mohammed Siraj and Prasidh Krishna did wonders. India leveled the series 2-2 by defeating England by six runs on the last day. This victory became an example of passion and struggle.

Rohit Sharma has now been removed from the captaincy of the ODI team, instead the board has chosen Shubman Gill as captain. Under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma, the Indian cricket team won 2 trophy within 8 months. Rahul Dravid was a coach during the 2024 T20 World Cup and the team won the Champions Trophy title this year as Gautam Gambhir. Rohit gave a big statement on Tuesday, saying that following the processes launched during Dravid’s tenure, Team India got help in winning the Champions Trophy.

What did Rohit Sharma say?

In the CAET Cricket Rating Award Ceremony, Rohit Sharma said, “I like that team and also like to play with them. We were all in this journey for many years. All this was not 1 or 2 years of work, work was going on for a long time. We had come close to winning the trophy many times but were not able to win. Then we all decided that something different has to be done and 2 ways to see it, this is what we had. 2 can not be with the players. We needed all this idea and was good from everyone. “

Rohit Sharma further said, “All the players playing in that tournament (Champions Trophy 2025) thought how to win the match and challenge themselves. Do not be complacent and did not take anything lightly. When we were preparing for T20 World Cup 2024, Rahul Bhai (Dravid) and I continued to help me with this process too.” Please tell that during the Champions Trophy, the head coach of the Indian team was Gautam Gambhir.

Today is a special day in the history of Indian cricket, under the captaincy of MS Dhoni, Team India won the title of Champions Trophy (Champions Trophy 2013). Fans on social media are celebrating its 12 years. Meanwhile, a video of Dhoni is also becoming very viral on social media, in which he is celebrating his birthday with his friend.
