Going on from July 18 to August 2 across Birmingham, Northampton, Leicester and Leeds, the WCL 2025 brings together the heroes of yesteryears in a grand summer spectacle sanctioned by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB).<\/p>\r\n\r\n
India Champions remained winless in the tournament after falling 23 runs short against England Champions in a high-scoring contest at Leeds. Chasing a stiff target of 224, India managed 200\/6 in their 20 overs despite a valiant 52 off 29 balls from Yusuf Pathan.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The rest of the batting line-up - including Shikhar Dhawan (17), Ambati Rayudu (28), Yuvraj Singh (38) and Stuart Binny (35) - got starts but couldn\u2019t convert like England\u2019s Ravi Bopara, who earlier smashed an unbeaten 110 off 55 balls.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Bopara, along with Ian Bell (54) and Moeen Ali (33 off 13), helped England post a daunting total after being put in to bat by Yuvraj. India Champions, who also lost to Australia Champions on Saturday, now find themselves at the bottom of the standings.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
With South Africa, Pakistan, and Australia already through to the semifinals, India\u2019s last hope hinges on a must-win clash against the West Indies Champions on Tuesday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Apart from Yuvraj Singh, the India Champions featured an all-star line-up, including Harbhajan Singh, Shikhar Dhawan, Irfan Pathan and Suresh Raina, among others.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
