IPL 2026: Fielding Gives You Confidence To Perform In Both Batting And Bowling, Says Anukul
Kolkata Knight Riders: Kolkata Knight Riders spin-bowling allrounder Anukul Roy has said the role of fielding in boosting confidence across both batting and bowling has been huge, as the three-time champions aim to keep themselves alive in the race to playoffs in IPL 2026.

Fielding gives you confidence to perform, both in batting and bowling. If the fielding is good, you get a different kind of confidence from within while bowling. So for me, it is extremely important and really helps my performance, Roy said in a pre-game chat with the broadcasters, ahead of their clash against Royal Challengers Bengaluru. On sharing the spin bowling unit with Sunil Narine and Varun Chakaravarthy, Roy added, I get to learn a lot, things like what field positions to take in the Powerplay, how to bowl, how much variation to use, what kind of seam ball to bowl. I keep discussing all these things with Sunil Narine and Varun bhai. We also talk about how to bowl between the (715 overs) and how to use fielders, what kind of deliveries to bowl.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Royal Challengers Bengaluru wicketkeeperbatter Jitesh Sharma has said he is staying positive despite a lean run with the bat this season by focusing on his wicketkeeping, team feedback and intent, rather than overthinking what is not going his way.

Bhuvneshwar is the seasons leading wicket-taker with 21 scalps in 11 games. Its very necessary when you do well in the previous matches for your confidence, and when you have confidence, I think I said it before as well, it always helps you to execute better. But of course, (bowling) is always there.

I havent done many practice sessions since the tournament started. So I think thats one of the ways to keep myself fresh. And of course, there are physios and trainers who have their own ways of recovering and giving their plan. Asked about his approach as a bowler, especially when batters are making big runs, Bhuvneshwar said, Mix, I would say. Its the first experience and instinct. And of course, there are a few things that I would say are trends from the data. You dont have to really necessarily follow that. But when you know that theres something like that and that comes into the match, you can prepare for that as well. I havent done many practice sessions since the tournament started.

Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh Stadium: The toss in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 clash between defending champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and three-time winners Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) has been delayed due to persistent rain and a wet outfield at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh Stadium in Raipur on Wednesday. At 4:30 pm, the entire ground was covered due to rain for about 30 minutes. A brief drizzle made an appearance around 6:15 pm. The square was uncovered for a while, but the ground was fully covered now, with super soppers moving around on the covers. But again at 6:35 pm, the rain became heavier, and was accompanied by thunder and lightning. Though rain stopped five minutes before the scheduled toss time, on-field umpires Rohan Pandit and Nitin Menon, along with fourth umpire Kaushik Gandhi, inspected conditions as ground staff members carefully peeled away covers with water collected on them.

'We Need To Forget This Game As Quickly As We Can': Vettori After Loss Against GT
Chennai Super Kings: Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) head coach Daniel Vettori urged his players to quickly move on from their crushing 82-run defeat to the Gujarat Titans and focus on bringing fresh energy into their remaining IPL 2026 fixtures against the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB). SRH were bowled out for just 86 in 14.5 overs while chasing 168 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Tuesday, as Kagiso Rabada and Jason Holder shared six wickets between them. Addressing the team in the dressing room after the defeat, Vettori said the immediate priority was to leave the performance behind and focus on preparation for the remaining league games. I think we've got two challenges moving forward. The first challenge is to forget this game as quickly as we can because it actually holds no relevance for the next two fixtures that we have on surfaces that we're very acclimated to, Vettori said in a video released by SRH on X. So, this performance happened today, and obviously there'll be some disappointment, but there's not much we can take out of it that actually propels us forward to the next game, he added. The former New Zealand captain also highlighted the difficulty of maintaining intensity during the latter stages of a long tournament and admitted the team looked mentally and physically drained in the field. And at the back end of these very long tournaments, we're not a roller coaster, but we've been on top a lot. We've had a couple of blips. It's hard to actually push yourself, Vettori observed. And I think today in the field, I saw a group that looked maybe a little tired, maybe a little bit off the ball, and whether that translated into our batting, who knows? he said. Vettori stressed that SRHs preparation and energy levels before the upcoming clash against CSK would be crucial. The only thing that I want or the coaches want or Paddy wants is that when we hit training, you're ready to go and you have an understanding of how you want to prepare, he stated. Because I think that will be a difference maker for us going into that game against Chennai, and then if we get it going there, we can take it on to the game against RCB as well, he added. The SRH coach also encouraged players to take responsibility for their preparation and mindset ahead of the decisive matches. So the ball's in everyone's court now to relax, rest up, and then when we turn up together in Chennai, what sort of energy can you bring? Vettori said. The SRH coach also encouraged players to take responsibility for their preparation and mindset ahead of the decisive matches. Also Read: Live Cricket Score Meanwhile, after this defeat, SRH have moved down to the third position in the points table with 14 points in 12 matches.

England Recall Robinson, Hand Gay, Rew And Baker Maiden Callups For First Test Against NZ
Australian Marcus North: England have recalled seamer Ollie Robinson after a twoyear absence and named uncapped trio Emilio Gay, James Rew and Sonny Baker in the squad for the first Test against New Zealand, starting at Lords on June 4. The match will also mark Englands first outing since their dismal Ashes campaign. Robinson, 32, returns as England seek an attack leader following the retirements of Stuart Broad, James Anderson and Chris Woakes. He has 76 wickets from 20 Tests, but was dropped after the 2024 tour of India due to fitness concerns. Zak Crawley has been left out after a poor Ashes tour, opening the door for Durhams Gay, who previously refused approaches to play from West Indies and Italy, to open alongside Ben Duckett. Rew, meanwhile, has already struck 12 firstclass hundreds but is more likely to be the reserve middle order batter. Baker, 23, joins the pace group of Robinson, Josh Tongue, Gus Atkinson, and Matthew Fisher after having a difficult start to his international career. Shoaib Bashir, ignored during the Ashes, is included and will contest for the spinners slot with leg-spinner Rehan Ahmed, who could play a home Test for the first time. England also confirmed Australian Marcus North as their new national selector, replacing Luke Wright. The squad will assemble at Loughborough on May 22 ahead of the Lords Test. Rehan Ahmed and Jacob Bethell, who are currently playing in IPL 2026, will return to England once their commitments with Delhi Capitals and Royal Challengers Bengaluru are over. Weve selected a squad that we believe has a really exciting blend of proven international quality, strong county form and players with huge potential to develop at Test level. Emilio, James and Sonny have all earned their opportunities through consistent performances and have impressed us not only with their talent, but with the way theyve gone about their cricket in high-pressure situations. Its also great to welcome back players like Rehan, Matt and Ollie, who all bring different qualities and experience to the group. Competition for places remains incredibly strong and thats exactly where we want to be as a Test team. Emilio, James and Sonny have all earned their opportunities through consistent performances and have impressed us not only with their talent, but with the way theyve gone about their cricket in high-pressure situations.

Indian Premier League: Former India bowling all-rounder Irfan Pathan has lauded veteran pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumars masterful control of his wrist position and epeatable action for maintaining his technical standards over an Indian Premier League (IPL) career spanning 16 years. Bhuvneshwar has been a standout performer for Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB). The swing king is currently leading the purple cap chart with 21 scalps in 11 games in the 2026 edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Bhuvneshwar has an amazing and highly repeatable action. He has had a 16-year-long IPL career and hasn't changed his action one bit. When you have the same action for such a long period, you can hit the areas you want to target. At the same time, his wrist position and the way he manoeuvres it is masterful, with very little change in seam position, whether he is bowling the inswinger or moving it away, and all of it with so much control, Pathan said on JioStar. He produced a match-winning all-round display in Raipur, finishing with exceptional figures of 4-23 before later smashing a crucial six in the final over to help RCB complete a tense chase on the last ball. When a bowler is running in at a certain speed, you only get a fraction of a second to react, and he has the ability to land the ball exactly where he wants to with the right fields. Thats where experience comes into play, he added. Bhuvneshwar has taken 219 wickets in 201 IPL matches at an average of 26.17 and an economy rate of 7.67, including two five-wicket hauls and two four-wicket hauls, with his best bowling figures standing at 5/19.
