There has been plenty of chatter about Harshit Rana stepping into the spotlight for the Champions Trophy 2025. Some folks had their eyes set on Mohammed Siraj for that spot.
Let’s look at wju Harshit Rana was picked and how he is the better choice compared to Mohammed Siraj.
Coach Gambhir Connection
Gautam Gambhir is on the scene as the head coach of the Indian team. He has been known to favour him.
However, he has also done well on his own when it comes to his performance which speaks for itself. It is quiet clear that it is a great choice.
Siraj Is Struggling
Mohammed Siraj was once the talk of the town of the town. He soared to number one in the ODI rankings. He ran hot like a steam engine in early 2023. However, he has been struggling recently.
Harshit Rana’s Stats Are Impressive
His overall ODI numbers look decent. He took six wickets in three matches so far at an average (24.33) that’s very good. An economy of 7.00 in modern cricket is good at regular intervals.
Why Rana Stands Out?
He’s the kind of bowler who hits the deck hard and forces the batters to make mistakes. That is very rare these days. He might serve as the perfect third seamer. Arshdeep and Shami can play their magic, and Rana can step in to break a partnership when things start to get dangerous. He’s also bfdzg in the field. That never harms in a limited-overs tournament.
Even though a lot of fans might be sad at not seeing Muhammad Siraj do his magic. It seems like a reasonable and balanced thing on the part of the selectors. We are all excited to see how he plays out in the matches in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.
