Prashant-Kartik and $3 million: CSK's switch from 'Dad's Army' to 'Gen Z'

Mahendra Singh Dhoni was an established India star even before Prashant Veer and Kartik Sharma were born. They were literally in their nappies when the legend of 'Captain Cool' was taking shape during those formative years of the Indian Premier League. But if they put hands on their hearts, neither the 19-year-old keeper-batter Kartik nor the 20-year-old left-arm spin bowling all-rounder Veer would have thought that by Tuesday evening, they would jointly walk into the record books with bank-breaking deals of Rs 14.20 crore from Chennai Super Kings. More enticing than that is the opportunity of a lifetime to share the dressing room with none other than Dhoni, already 44 and still going strong. Whether keeper Kartik will get a look-in when Sanju Samson and Dhoni can don the big gloves or if Veer can be groomed as a long-term replacement of Ravindra Jadeja is a matter of debate. But Chennai Super Kings have displayed a clever switch in philosophy looking at the future when Ruturaj ...

I am not out of form, just out of runs for now, says Suryakumar Yadav

Suryakumar Yadav on Sunday acknowledged the shortage of runs from him but India's T20I skipper did not count it as lack of form, saying that runs will come sooner than later. Suryakumar made an 11-ball 12 in India's seven-wicket win over South Africa in the third T20I here before getting out to Lungi Ngidi. It extended his run of low scores to 21 innings, with the exceptions being his 75 against Bangladesh in Hyderabad on October 24, and an unbeaten 47 against Pakistan during September's Asia Cup. I've been batting beautifully in the nets. When the runs have to come, they'll come. Not out of form, definitely out of runs, said Suryakumar in the post-match presentation. The outing also reduced Suryakumar's average in T20Is in 2025 to a paltry 14.20 with two matches against South Africa remaining. But he was happy with the way India bounced back from the defeat in the second T20I. I think this sport teaches you a lot of things. How you come back into the series is more important. An
