'Thankful To Experience This Before I Stopped Playing': Kohli On RCB Winning IPL
Indian Premier League: India's charismatic batter Virat Kohli believes that finally winning the Indian Premier League (IPL) title with Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) before the end of his career was one of the most emotional and fulfilling moments of his cricketing journey. Reflecting on the franchise's historic triumph in the RCB podcast, Kohli admitted the overwhelming emotions were impossible to describe after the franchise ended its 18-year-long wait to hold the iconic trophy. All those emotions, all those feelings came out in a form of just being on my knees and just holding my hands and saying, thank you. That I could experience this before I stopped playing, Kohli said. Former RCB captain was visibly emotional after the team won their maiden title by beating Punjab Kings at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on June 3. Kohli, who is representing the franchise since 2008 and also captained the side, said that the journey of near misses and heartbreaks has made the victory more meaningful. I still say it's very difficult to explain to people in words how I felt in the last four balls of the last over. When you see from the outside what has happened to the franchise, how RCB has been looked at for so many years... as a big team, big franchise that's never won - the almost champions, the ones that have come close but never really won the trophy. And for that pressure to build over so many years, like season after season. There's one thing to observe it, and there's one thing to live it. And I have lived through all of those seasons, he added. Kohli, however, acknowledged that he would not have lived with regret if RCB failed to clinch the trophy, but there would always be a thought of missing the experience of a lifetime. Although I wouldn't have carried on regretting it. But there would have been a part of me that would have wondered, you know, what it would have felt like to experience that moment, he said. The 37-year-old also believes that the prolonged wait to lift the trophy with the franchise he has given everything amplified the joy of being the champions. Although I wouldn't have carried on regretting it. But there would have been a part of me that would have wondered, you know, what it would have felt like to experience that moment, he said.

Indian Premier League: Virat Kohli believes Bhuvneshwar Kumars remarkable Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 season is proof that consistency, belief, and technical mastery can still dominate modern T20 cricket. According to Kohli, Bhuvneshwars success is not built on magic deliveries or extravagant swing, but on repeatedly executing one difficult length and daring batters to challenge him. What is Bhuvi doing? He is not bowling banana inswingers, banana outswingers. He is bowling at a length that tells the guys that I am good enough to hit the length every time. It is the most difficult length to hit, and I am just gonna keep hitting those lengths. Are you good enough to take me on or not? Kohli said on RCBs podcast. At 36, Bhuvneshwar has turned back the clock in spectacular fashion. With 22 wickets already this season, the RCB pacer currently leads the wicket-taking charts and has become one of the biggest reasons behind Bengalurus rise to the top of the IPL 2026 points table. Kohli explained that Bhuvneshwars performances are a result of repetition, execution, and unwavering consistency rather than flashy variations. According to the former RCB captain, the veteran pacer has mastered the art of bowling difficult Test-match lengths in T20 cricket, something that continues to trouble even the most aggressive batters. Its simple stuff. Its repetition, its execution, uncomplicated consistency backed with tremendous belief. Thats all he is doing. Look at the results. He has six three-wicket hauls in 11 matches. Thats crazy, Kohli added. The batting great also stressed the importance of a technical foundation in helping players survive difficult phases in their careers. Kohli said players with strong basics always find ways to adapt and bounce back, and Bhuvneshwar is a perfect example of that. Its simple stuff. Its repetition, its execution, uncomplicated consistency backed with tremendous belief. Thats all he is doing. Look at the results. He has six three-wicket hauls in 11 matches. Thats crazy, Kohli added. Also Read: Live Cricket Score Bhuvneshwars outstanding form has played a major role in RCBs impressive IPL 2026 campaign.

Our Destiny Is Still In Our Hands: Brad Haddin Stays Positive On PBKS Playoff Chances
After Punjab Kings: After Punjab Kings (PBKS) suffered their fifth consecutive loss after going down to Mumbai Indians, assistant coach Brad Haddin showed full faith in the squad and emphasised that the teams path to the playoffs remains within their control. After a strong start, and despite losing wickets in quick succession in the middle, the Kings staged a remarkable recovery to reach a total of 200/8. The lower order took the attack to the opposition, ensuring the side was right in the contest until the very last over. While Mumbai Indians managed to chase the target with just one ball to spare, the depth shown by the Kings' batting unit remains a key positive heading into the final two league games. Despite a narrow result that didn't go their waymarking the side's fifth consecutive lossthe team remains in a competitive position, currently sitting in fourth place with 13 points as the race for the playoffs intensifies. The one thing to come out of it is weve got two games of cricket left and our destiny is still in our hands. Now theres no tomorrow; theres no talking about anything else. We have to win our remaining games now, and thats as simple as it is. Well assess this quickly and get our heads around playing a day game here in a couple of days' time, Haddin said in a post-match presser. He also highlighted the teams ability to post a high total and credited the opposition for a standout individual performance. I thought we did really well to get to the total we did. Mumbai bowled well early, but we had some really good hitting in the back end of the game to get us to what we thought was a really good total. We felt like we were in control for a long time, but it took a pretty special knock from Tilak (Varma) to get Mumbai home. That was a special innings and you have to give credit to that. Haddin spoke candidly about the atmosphere in the camp and the pressure that comes with the business end of the tournament. The whole tournament is pressure the whole time, and especially at this stage, this is what IPL cricket is about. Youve got to be able to handle the big moments and handle the pressure. The result is hurting and the change room is hurting in there, but there are good signs out of tonights match. Its important now that we respond well. Discussing the tactical side of the game, Haddin expressed and noted how much the scoring standards have shifted this season. Weve got a lot of confidence in every player in our squad. What you do see in this tournament now is some unbelievable powerits different to what were used to.

IPL 2026: 'A Tough Pill To Swallow,' Says Shreyas Iyer After Punjab Kings Defeat To Mumbai Indians
Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium: Shreyas Iyer described Punjab Kings narrow defeat against the Mumbai Indians as a tough pill to swallow after his side failed to defend a 200-run total in a thrilling Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 contest at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamshala on Thursday. Punjab Kings looked in control after posting 200/8, with Prabhsimran Singh scoring a rapid 57 and Azmatullah Omarzai providing a crucial late push with 38 off just 17 balls. However, the Mumbai Indians chased down the target with one ball remaining, powered by Tilak Varmas unbeaten 75 and an explosive start from Ryan Rickelton. The defeat left Punjab disappointed, especially after recovering strongly in the final overs to cross the 200-run mark following a middle-order collapse. Well, absolutely a tough pill to swallow, but I don't want to pinpoint any situation over here because it was a great game of cricket. Well fought game, Shreyas said after the match. The Punjab skipper reserved special praise for Tilak Varma, whose calm and aggressive approach under pressure turned the chase in Mumbais favour. He played amazingly, he was selecting his shots pretty well, and he manoeuvred the field nicely, so credit to him, he added. Punjab were struggling at one stage and appeared set for a total around 170-180 before Omarzais late counterattack changed the momentum completely. The Afghan all-rounder smashed four sixes in his quick cameo to lift Punjab to 200. Certainly, at a point, we were looking at around 170 to 180, and from there on, he simply changed the momentum towards us. Getting those scoops of sixes, and from 16th or 17th over, from there on, we gained the momentum, and getting to 200 was a commendable performance for him, Shreyas said. Despite the loss, the Punjab captain remained optimistic about the teams chances in the remaining league matches, including the upcoming afternoon clash against Royal Challengers Bengaluru. Certainly, at a point, we were looking at around 170 to 180, and from there on, he simply changed the momentum towards us.

At the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Cricket Stadium, Kohli returned to form after bagging consecutive ducks as he steered his team home in a chase of 193 in Raipur with an excellent 60-ball knock, also his ninth IPL century, laced with 11 fours and three sixes. Kohli became the most capped player in tournament history with his 279th appearance, and crossed 14,000 runs in T20 cricket - the fastest batter to reach the milestone in just 409 innings. Its just a joy for all of us to watch. The way he chased it down when we only needed the two points. That was a great performance. It was hot out there, and he was running around everywhere and still batting through the innings. People dont appreciate how fit you have to be to finish the game off, said David in a release issued by the franchise. Kohli also crossed 400 runs in an IPL season for the 12th time and went past 6000 IPL runs as an opener. Mentor and batting coach Dinesh Karthik echoed the sentiment by stressing Kohlis clarity and confidence. Were all used to seeing it, sometimes you dont realise how special what he does actually is. He had complete confidence in himself during the innings. The strokes he played were very self-assured, and he knew exactly what he needed to do to get the team across the finish line. I wish people got more insight into how he speaks during the strategic timeout. Hes so clear and confident about what he needs to do, he added.

IPL 2026: Hardik, Suryakumar Out As Mumbai Indians Opt To Bowl Against Punjab Kings
Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association: Mumbai Indians won the toss and elected to bowl first against Punjab Kings in Match 58 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association (HPCA) Stadium in Dharamshala on Thursday. Captain Hardik Pandya has still not recovered fully, and Jasprit Bumrah is leading MI for the first time in his absence. While Suryakumar Yadav is also missing the match due to personal reasons. Punjab Kings have also made three changes as Harprit Brar, Xavier Bartlett, and Azmat Omarzai are included in the playing XI. After winning the toss, MI skipper Jasprit Bumrah said, We have decided to bowl first. We saw the last game and felt that maybe with the cold weather coming down, the wicket would settle down. I didn't think that I would be a Test captain before becoming MI captain (smiles). As much as we can, we can play three games left, and we want to enjoy and maybe ruffle a few teams. Surya is not here for personal reasons, and Allah is not there as well. While after losing the toss, Shreyas Iyer said, We would have bowled first as well. The wicket looks a bit drier. Still don't know how the pitch will play, so just being positive about it. We should stop thinking about what has gone wrong. We have to think about being in good shape and having a positive mindset. Harpreet Brar, Xavier Bartlett, and Azmatullah Omarzai come in. Punjab began their campaign in dominant fashion, winning six of their opening seven matches and emerging as one of the strongest sides in the tournament. However, their momentum has faded in recent weeks, with Shreyas Iyer's men suffering four consecutive defeats. As the playoff battle heats up, PBKS will be desperate to halt the slide and strengthen their chances of securing a top-four finish. PBKS are currently placed at fourth position in the points table with 13 points in 11 matches. On the other side, the Mumbai Indians were knocked out of the competition following their eighth defeat of the season against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru in Raipur on May 10. Despite boasting a star-studded lineup and showing early promise, they failed to convert their on-paper strength into consistent performances throughout the campaign. Their season has been marked by inconsistency, leaving them ninth on the points table with just six points from 11 matches.

Kolkata Knight Riders: Former India opener Aakash Chopra believes Manish Pandey produced one of the finest catches ever seen in the IPL after the veteran pulled off a breathtaking one-handed effort during Kolkata Knight Riders recently concluded clash against Royal Challengers Bengaluru in Raipur. Although KKR eventually went down by six wickets as Virat Kohli struck a match-winning unbeaten century, Pandeys stunning grab to dismiss Tim David became one of the defining visual moments of the contest. Reacting to the effort, Chopra said the catch stood out even more in a season where dropped chances have repeatedly dominated conversations around fielding standards. It was a stunning catch by Manish Pandey. We have seen nearly 175 drops already this season. But once in a while, we get a gem like this one. Manish dived full stretch to his left and pulled off a blinder. The umpire had to check two things. First, whether the ball had touched the ground. Second, whether it was Manish Pandey or Glenn Phillips. Because we are so used to seeing Phillips take these kinds of screamers. But this time, it was Manish Pandey. It left everyone stunned. Tim David stood there in disbelief and said it was not possible. This catch will go down as one of the best in IPL history. Manish Pandey has now played all 19 IPL seasons. Only Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma have done the same. MS Dhoni hasn't played a match this season yet, Chopra told while speaking on JioStar. The pivotal moment came during the final delivery of the 18th over in RCBs chase of 193. By then, Kohli had already established Bengalurus dominance with another calm, masterful chase, supported earlier by Devdutt Padikkal at the top. As RCB edged closer to victory, Tim David stepped in with the intention of finishing the game swiftly. Kartik Tyagi delivered a sharp, skiddy ball outside off stump, prompting David to swing hard, aiming to edge the ball behind point. The sequence of events that followed left almost everyone in the stadium momentarily stunned. Positioned at backward point, Pandey instinctively reacted as the ball sped low and fast toward his left. Stretching fully and diving, he managed to catch the ball just inches above the ground while still in midair. For a few moments, there was doubt about the catch. Tyagi raised his hands above his head, while David stood still and looked at the umpire, uncertain if the catch was clean. At the non-strikers end, Kohlis surprised reaction showed the disbelief felt by players from both teams.

IPL 2026: Kohli's Ability To Sum Up The Conditions Straight Away Is Second To None, Says Finch
Kolkata Knight Riders: Former Australia captain Aaron Finch believes Virat Kohlis ability to read match situations and adapt instantly to conditions is unmatched and credited that as a defining factor behind his unbeaten ton against Kolkata Knight Riders that helped Royal Challengers Bengaluru clinch a commanding six-wicket win. Kohli struck an unbeaten 105 off 60 balls to guide RCB to the top of the points table and reclaim the top spot on the IPL 2026 points table. The innings, decorated with 11 fours and three sixes, came at a strike-rate of 175 and marked Kohlis ninth IPL century. Finch said Kohlis early start in the innings was crucial, especially considering the pressure that comes with lean scores for a top-order batter. It would have been important for him just to get off the mark. Nobody wants to get three ducks in a row. Some of those shots were absolutely class. His ability to sum up the conditions straight away is second to none. The way he got into his work so quickly and was able to get his innings underway with no risk was great, Finch told JioStar. Kohli began aggressively after a cautious opening over, punishing loose deliveries from Vaibhav Arora and quickly settling into rhythm despite tricky conditions following a rain delay. Finch felt Kohlis ability to assess surfaces early remains one of the defining strengths of his batting. Thats the dream as a player at the top of the order. We always know that if you allow him to have a look at a wicket for some time, he will be successful. When hes playing at his absolute best, you feel as though hes swinging the bat at 50 per cent. He just finds the middle, and hes got that gift of timing, he said. The former Australian skipper also pointed to Kohlis effortless control during the chase, particularly his knack for finding boundaries whenever the asking rate threatened to rise, saying, It was a wonderful knock. Any time he needed to find the boundary, he did. Finch also turned his attention to Thursdays clash involving Punjab Kings and Mumbai Indians, warning the former against complacency despite MI being out of the qualification race. MI and RCB, two tough games for Punjab. Regardless of where Mumbai Indians are on the ladder, you know theyre coming hard at you. Theyve got nothing to lose. Theyve got everything to gain by contributing to knocking out a team, and thats what you play for when you get down to this part of the season, when you cant qualify yourself, Finch stated.

He knows when you have to put pressure on the opposition and when we have to take a step back and make sure that we build that partnership.

Kohli Proved That The Old Generation Is Still The Best: Gavaskar
Kolkata Knight Riders: India legend Sunil Gavaskar hailed Virat Kohli for producing yet another masterclass under pressure after the former India skipper struck an unbeaten 105 against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) to guide Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) to a six-wicket victory in their IPL 2026 clash in Raipur. Kohlis unbeaten 60-ball century, his ninth hundred in IPL history and 10th overall in T20 cricket, powered RCB to a successful chase of 193 with five balls to spare and lifted the side back to the top of the points table. Reflecting on Kohlis chase-defining knock, Gavaskar said the veteran batter once again showed why he remains among the games greatest performers despite the growing spotlight on younger stars this season. Virat Kohli was absolutely outstanding against KKR. He knows how to construct a chase better than most. When it comes to T20 centuries, he is third on the list with 10, behind Chris Gayle and Babar Azam. But he is the fastest to 14,000 T20 runs and has nine IPL hundreds. Records are there to be broken, but it will take a very long time for anyone to match what Kohli keeps delivering, game after game, season after season. While everyone was talking about this being the season of Gen Next, Kohli showed he is still around. He silenced the doubters with a century and moved to third in the Orange Cap race. He proved that the old generation is still the best. Even though the young stars are taking centre stage, the experienced greats are not done yet. This hundred from Virat Kohli was one of those special moments that remind us of his greatness, Gavaskar told JioStar. Kohlis innings was built with trademark control and precision. After Jacob Bethells early dismissal, the former RCB captain steadied the chase and gradually accelerated, stitching a crucial 92-run stand with Devdutt Padikkal. He reached his fifty in 32 deliveries before shifting gears in the latter half of the innings, eventually bringing up his century in the 19th over to a thunderous reception from the Raipur crowd. Gavaskar also pointed to a key turning point in the match, Rovman Powells dropped catch when Kohli was still settling into his innings. The missed opportunity proved costly as Kohli made KKR pay with a match-winning hundred. Kohlis innings was built with trademark control and precision.
