With overs ticking away, Pakistan's Mohammad Rizwan and Saud Shakeel finally shifted gears. After enduring nearly 50 deliveries without a boundary, the duo broke the shackles, smashing four boundaries in three overs to build momentum in their 50-plus partnership.

Mohammad Rizwan snailed his innings after Pakistan lost both of their openers - Babar Azam and Imam-ul-Haq - inside the powerplay. Rizwan had a shoulder barge with Indian speedster Harshit Rana in the 21st over of Pakistan's innings at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium,

Shikhar Dhawan believes Harshit Rana could have a cracking ICC Men's Champions Trophy 2025. He picked the fast bowler to have a breakout tournament.

India dropped Arshdeep Singh and picked Harshit Rana in their XI for their first match in Dubai on Thursday. Mohammed Shami returned to the XI along with Ravindra Jadeja.

Former India cricketer Atul Wassan was shocked to see Indian team management playing Harshit Rana over Arshdeep Singh. The Punjab-based bowler has the ability to swing the ball and Arshdeep was the leading wicket-taker with 20 wickets in the Vijay Hazare Trophy.

Harshit Rana is in the Champions Trophy squad as Jasprit Bumrah's replacement but Ricky Ponting feels Arshdeep Singh should get the nod for the matches.
