Team News: Fantasy Cricket Team Dream 11 Prediction

IPL Fantasy League Team News: KKR

In the last match against, KKR nearly ticked off all of their boxes. Rana and Gill form a solid opening partnership. Rahul Tripathi's quickfire knock will give them some confidence too.

Dinesh Karthik finshed well at the end. However, it's the form of captain Morgan which will be worrying the KKR team management. Morgan has been out of touch since the India-England series. Shakib might be sent up the order if the wicket falls quickly. In that case, Tripathi can be a flyer in the lineup.

Coming to the bowling, middle overs looked flat. Maybe an inform Kuldeep would have been a great choice. KKR would like to stick with Shakib and Varun with the spin options. Even Rana can roll his arm over if needed. Prasidh Krishna found some extra bounce, though he leaked runs. However, Russell in that sixth bowling option for KKR is a big plus. Moreover, the big West Indian looked fit clocking over 140kmph while bowling.

Overall, we don't expect any changes form the KKR team management, unless they are forced to.

IPL Fantasy League Team News: Mumbai Indians

Though Mumbai lost their first match against the RCB, there were few positives as well. Mumbai is not a team to chop and change too quickly.

Though the bowling might have some changes if Rohit needs it. MI was not able to stop the flow of runs when ABD was stroking it hard. Boult with the new ball and Bumrah with the older ball is a winning combination for them.

Krunal and Hardik hold the key. Though, Hardik has not bowled yet in the IPL. Big man Kieron Pollard will be looking to contribute to the team this time. Spin wizard, Rahul Chahar was found confused when tough questions were asked by RCB batters.

Rohit Sharma stats against KKR in IPL- SportzPoint

If Rohit Sharma needs any team to score big and come back to from, it is the Kolkata Knight Riders. No one has scored more than Rohit against KKR in the IPL. Rohit has scored 939 runs at an average of 46.95 and a strike rate of 133 against the Knights. He will need 61 more runs to become the only batsman to hit 1000 runs against any team.

6 crickters who announced their retirements since last month | sportzpoint.com

The cricket world, known for its constant evolution, has seen a drastic shift in a month. Over the past month, six notable players have chosen to conclude their careers on the global stage.

From legendary batsmen to powerful all-rounders, these departures mark a significant moment in the history of cricket. These aren't just names; they are players who have shaped matches and won the hearts of millions.

Explore the list of 6 cricketers who announced their retirements since last month.

1. Rohit Sharma (Test retirement) | May 7, 2025

On May 7, 2025, Rohit Sharma announced his retirement from Test cricket, marking the end of his remarkable journey as a batsman, as well as India's captain in tests. His test career lasted for 12 years since his debut in 2013.

Sharma transformed himself into a brilliant test opener in the latter half of his career. One of his defining moments in Test cricket arrived in 2019 against South Africa, where he hammered a majestic 212 runs as an opener, showcasing his ability to wear down opposition attacks.

He is the fifth-most successful Test captain for India, leading to 12 Test victories.

Rohit Sharma's stats in tests:

Span Innings Runs Avg SR HS 50 100
2013-2024 116 4302 40.6 57.1 212 18 12

2. Virat Kohli (Test retirement) | May 12, 2025

Following Rohit's retirement, India lost the era's most dominant force in test cricket. The announcement of Virat Kohli's test retirement on May 12, 2025, resonated globally, leaving everyone shocked and upset. 

Kohli approached the test format with a fierce competitive spirit and hunger for runs. His dedication and skill set in this format saw him notch 7 double centuries in his test career. He also became the most successful test captain of India during the 8 years (Dec 2014-Jan 2022) of his captaincy tenure, leading to 40 wins.

This decision of Kohli to step away from tests also brought the interests of Indian fans in tests in question. This retirement indeed marked the end of an era.

Virat Kohli's stats in tests:

Span Innings Runs Avg SR HS 50 100
2011-2025 210 9230 46.85 55.57 254* 3 30

3. Angelo Mathews (Test retirement) | May 23, 2025

Sri Lanka's enduring test pillar, Angelo Mathews, concluded his test career on May 23, 2025. He left behind a legacy of resilience and crucial performances as an all-rounder. 

Mathews possessed the ability to adapt his game and accelerate when required. His unbeaten 200 runs against Zimbabwe in 2020 stand out as one of his vital contributions. He also took a total of 33 wickets in tests.

He led Sri Lanka in 34 matches as a captain and won 13 among them.

Angelo Mathews' stats in tests:

Span Innings Runs Avg SR HS 50 100
2009-2025 210 8167 44.62 48.45 200* 45 16

4. Glenn Maxwell (ODIs Retirement) | June 2, 2025

Australia's one of the most captivating hitters and match-winners, Glenn Maxwell, announced retirement from ODIs on June 2, 2025. Known for his explosive strokeplay and ability to turn the game around, he had an amazing ODI career.

Maxwell's career has many moments to highlight, but nothing can match his astonishing 201* runs against Afghanistan in the 2023 Cricket World Cup. Coming back with a back injury, this innings was a masterclass in aggressive and controlled batting.

He snatched victory from the jaws of defeat, which goes down in the history of ODI cricket.

Glenn Maxwell's stats in ODIs:

Span Innings Runs Wickets Avg SR HS 50 100
2012-2025 136 3990

77

(in 119 innings)

33.81 126.70 201* 23 4

5. Heinrich Klaasen (International retirement) | June 2, 2025

On June 2, 2025, Heinrich Klaasen announced his international retirement, which marked the end of a relatively short yet impactful career as a destructive batsman in white-ball cricket. 

Since his international debut for South Africa in 2018, he has been a hard-hitter of the ball and has become one of the most feared finishers in limited-overs formats. His phenomenal 174 runs off just 83 balls against Australia in an ODI in 2023 stands as a testament to his raw hitting power and ability.

Heinrich Klaasen's international stats (2018-2025)

Format Innings Runs Avg SR HS 50 100
T20Is 53 1000 23.25 141.84 81 5 0
ODIs 56 2141 43.69 117.05 174 11 4
Tests 8 104 13.00 45.21 35 0 0

6. Nicholas Pooran (International retirement) | June 10, 2025

The West Indies batter, Nicholas Pooran, announced his international retirement on June 10, 2025, at the age of just 29. This marked one of the earliest retirements for a high-profile West Indies player.

As a left-hander wicket-keeper batsman, Pooran quickly established himself as an electrifying hitter in white-ball cricket. He brought an aggressive approach to the crease, with the potential to turn the game in his favour.

He has done exceptionally well in his short-lived international career. His 98 runs off 53 balls against Afghanistan in the 2024 T20 World Cup perfectly tell the story of his talent.

Nicholas Pooran's international stats (2016-2025):

Format Innings Runs Avg SR HS 50 100
T20Is 97 2275 26.14 136.39 98 13 0
ODIs 58 1983 39.66 99.15 118 11 3
