Gill made an unbeaten hundred and Shami walked away with a five-wicket haul as India registered a six-wicket win over Bangladesh at the DICS.

I would rather focus on my rhythm and execution than speed: Nahid Rana

Eager to test his skills against the best in the game, young Bangladesh pace sensation Nahid Rana said his focus would be on rhythm and execution of his plans rather than speed as he prepares for the Champions Trophy, the first ICC event of his international career. The 22-year-old Rana, who holds the record for the fastest delivery (152 kph) bowled by a Bangladesh cricketer, faces his first major challenge when his team takes on India in its campaign opener here on Thursday. He will be up against the likes of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. "I would rather concentrate on getting into the right rhythm and my release, he told the ICC. "I have learnt that looking after your body and staying fit is the key to bowling quick. If I feel good, then I know that the pace would be right. "But then again, when you see or hear that the pace is around 150kph, that's a nice feeling, added the talented pacer, who averages 145kph for most of his spells. Bangladesh will play Pakistan and New Zealan

CT 2025, IND vs BAN preview: India look to rise above selection challenges

A turbulent recent cricketing past has made a resonant effort mandatory for India in the Champions Trophy, and their opening match against a tricky Bangladesh here on Thursday will be the first point in assuaging a set of existential questions surrounding this team. They are vexing even for a pre-tournament favourite like India. Can this Indian bowling unit tide over the absence of injured pace talisman Jasprit Bumrah? Can Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma summon their glory days back? Can young names like Shubman Gill ace the pressure of a multi-nation competition to deliver consistently? In that context, the ICC showpiece is a godsend because ODI is the comfort zone of those icons and young tyros in this Indian line-up, and they will be genuinely eyeing a strong outing here. It's imperative that they do so -- from a team and individual perspective. It would not be an exaggeration to say that Kohli, Rohit and even head coach Gautam Gambhir, although only six months into his tenure, are
