IPL 2025 begins with KKR vs RCB, while Harbhajan predicts India`s dominance over Pakistan in the Champions Trophy.

The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 is set to commence on March 22, with the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) facing off against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RC in the opening match at Eden Gardens. The full schedule for the tournament will be announced today at 5:30 PM IST, with live updates provided by JioHotstar and Star Sports.

In a significant roster change, the Mumbai Indians have signed Afghanistan off-spinner Mujeeb Ur Rahman as a replacement for the injured Allah Ghazanfar, who will miss the entire IPL season due to a fracture in the L4 vertebra. This move highlights the strategic adjustments teams are making ahead of the tournament.

Looking ahead to the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, former Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh has made bold predictions regarding the upcoming match between India and Pakistan. He anticipates a one-sided affair, pointing to the quality gap between the teams and Pakistan`s recent struggles, including their inability to chase down 120 runs in the 2024 T20 World Cup. Harbhajan`s analysis underscores India`s current dominance, especially following their strong performances against England.

Aakash Chopra also weighed in, emphasizing Pakistan`s historical tendency to crumble under pressure in major tournaments. Their inconsistent track record, including failures to progress beyond the group stages in the 2023 ODI World Cup and the 2024 T20 World Cup, raises concerns ahead of their high-stakes clash against India on February 23 in Dubai.
