IWL: Late Comeback Against Sribhumi Gives Kickstart Maiden Win

Loveth Njideka Edeh: Kickstart FC finally opened their account in the Indian Womens League 2025-26 in dramatic fashion, coming from behind to defeat Sribhumi FC 2-1 with two late goals at the Kalyani Stadium on Friday. Babysana Devi scored the winner from the penalty spot in the 85th minute after Loveth Njideka Edeh (81) cancelled out Yumnam Kamala Devis (12) first-half spot kick for Sribhumi. The victory, Kickstarts first of the campaign after a difficult run of results, lifted them to three points from five matches, while Sribhumi were left to rue missed opportunities as they stayed on six points from four games. Sribhumi began the contest on the front foot, dictating the tempo with confident passing and sustained possession. Facing a Kickstart side short on confidence after four consecutive defeats, they pressed high and forced errors in the opening exchanges. Sribhumis pressure paid off in the 12th minute, when a corner floated into the box led to a foul, prompting the referee to award a penalty. Yumnam Kamala Devi stepped up and calmly converted from the spot despite Kickstart goalkeeper Maibam Linthoingambi Devi guessing the right way. Buoyed by the early lead, Sribhumi continued to create chances. Kayenpaibam Anju Chanu tested the goalkeeper with a driven effort, while Kamala nearly turned provider with a perfectly weighted through ball for Rimpa Haldar, who lifted her shot over the bar in a one-on-one situation with Linthoingambi. Despite their dominance, Sribhumi failed to add to their lead before the interval. Kickstart absorbed the pressure and regrouped during the break, emerging with greater composure and defensive discipline in the second half. They limited Sribhumis space in midfield and gradually began to look for openings on the counter, aware that one goal could shift the momentum. That breakthrough arrived in the 81st minute following a moment of hesitation at the back. A routine pass was allowed to roll inside the Sribhumi penalty area, with defender Poonam Sharma expecting goalkeeper Moirangthem Monalisha Devi to collect. Rafiyat Titilayo Aweda reacted sharply, intercepting the ball and laying it off for Loveth Njideka Edeh, who finished clinically to restore parity.

Punes MCA Stadium Likely To Host Rajasthan Royals Home Games In IPL 2026

The Maharashtra Cricket Association: The Maharashtra Cricket Association (MCA) Stadium in Pune is likely to host a few Rajasthan Royals (RR) home games in the 2026 Indian Premier League (IPL), sources familiar with the matter told IANS on Friday. IANS had previously reported in November that RR and defending champion Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) were in the reckoning to get the venue in Gahunje as their home venue ahead of IPL 2026. RR had even done an inspection of the stadium and an initial recce of the nearby facilities. Sources have said RR is more likely to get Pune as their home venue, which in turn will replace Jaipur, which has been their base since the inception of IPL in 2008. Things are going very close for both MCA and RR to close the deal. Many discussions are going on, so this is likely to be a reality, further said sources. RR's decision to move some of their home matches away from their primary venue at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium arises from ongoing disagreements with the Rajasthan Cricket Association (RCA). Tensions escalated in IPL 2025 when an RCA official levelled match-fixing allegations against the franchise, something which they categorically denied while calling for strict action against the individual concerned. As of now, RCA is run by an adhoc committee headed by Deen Dayal Kumawat, and it is understood that not having the house in order will also be a major factor in RR playing its home games in Pune. RR, the IPL 2008 winners, also have another home ground at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati. It's like a matter of time now for this announcement to come anytime soon from the BCCI, said another source tracking the development to IANS. As of now, RCA is run by an adhoc committee headed by Deen Dayal Kumawat, and it is understood that not having the house in order will also be a major factor in RR playing its home games in Pune.
