IPL 2026: 'We Gave Away Too Many Runs,' Says Gill After Gujarat Titans 'heavy Defeat' To MI

Indian Premier League: Skipper Shubman Gill admitted that the Gujarat Titans (GT) conceded too many runs in the middle overs as they slumped to a heavy 99-run defeat against the Mumbai Indians (MI) in Match 30 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Monday. Honestly, I think we gave away too many runs in the middle overs. On a wicket like that, I think 160-170 was a par score, Gill said after the match. Mumbai Indians had posted a commanding 199/5, riding on a sensational unbeaten 101 off just 45 balls from Tilak Varma, who also equalled the franchise record for the fastest century. Naman Dhir provided solid support with a 45-run knock, while Kagiso Rabada was the pick of the GT bowlers with three wickets. Chasing a big target, the Gujarat Titans never really got going. Jasprit Bumrah struck on the very first ball, while Hardik Pandya removed Jos Buttler early to put MI firmly in control. Despite a brief fightback, GT kept losing wickets at regular intervals. I think there are a lot of lessons for us from this game. A small hiccup, but now weve got a couple of games on the road, so hopefully we will come back on the winning side again, Gill said. Mumbai Indians bowlers dominated the chase, with Ashwani Kumar starring with a superb four-wicket haul, while Mitchell Santner and Allah Ghazanfar chipped in with two wickets each to bundle out GT well short of the target. Reflecting on what could have been done differently, Gill said his bowlers failed to adapt to the conditions. I think the wicket was a little bit on the slower side. I dont think we hit the right areas. The length ball wasnt coming on as well, some balls were coming, some werent, and some were keeping low, he said. I think we could have hit that length in the middle overs a bit more consistently, which we were not able to, he added.

IPL 2026: When And Where To Watch SRH Vs DC, Know All Details

Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium: The 2016 champions Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) will take on Delhi Capitals (DC) in match 31 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 to be played at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium on Tuesday. Hyderabad have had a mixed season so far and are currently placed fourth on the points table with six points. They started their campaign with a loss against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru but quickly recovered with a win over the Kolkata Knight Riders. However, their form dipped again as they suffered a close defeat to Lucknow Super Giants and then lost to Punjab Kings. Recently, though, the team has found some rhythm, registering back-to-back victories against the Rajasthan Royals and the Chennai Super Kings. With momentum on their side, they will be aiming to secure another win. On the other hand, Delhi had a promising start to their season, winning their first two matches. But they then faced a setback with consecutive losses. They managed to turn things around in their most recent game against Royal Challengers Bengaluru, where David Miller played a crucial role by finishing the match in the final over. With confidence restored after that win, Delhi will look to continue their positive run in this contest. The head-to-head record between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Delhi Capitals in T20 cricket has been fairly competitive over the years. Out of the 26 matches played between the two sides, Sunrisers Hyderabad have won 13 games, while Delhi Capitals have secured 11 victories. One match ended in a tie, and one produced no result. Their first-ever meeting on April 12, 2013, was won by Sunrisers Hyderabad, while their most recent encounter on May 5, 2025, ended in a tie.

VinFast's Free Charging Program Could Slash Fuel Costs by More Than Half

Indias EV transition is accelerating, but for many drivers the decision still comes down to a practical question: will it actually save money over time? VinFast recently extended free charging at V-Green stations until March 31, 2029, allowing customers to charge their vehicles at no cost for several years VinFast believes the answer becomes clearer with its latest ownership program. The company recently extended free charging at V-Green stations until March 31, 2029, allowing customers to charge their vehicles at no cost for several years. This charging program is supported by V-Green, a global EV charging infrastructure company focused on building and operating charging networks for VinFast vehicles. In India, V-Green has been steadily expanding its presence, including a recent partnership with Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL) to deploy EV chargers across HPCLs fuel station network nationwide, helping bring charging access to major cities, highways and key transport corridors as the countrys EV market grows. Free charging reshapes the cost of driving To really see the benefits of VinFasts latest free charging program, one only needs to make one simple comparison. In early March 2026, petrol in New Delhi was priced around Rs. 94.77 per litre, with similar levels across many major cities. Assuming a typical and balanced real-world estimate of 15.5 km per litre for mid-size SUVs, a driver covering about 1,350 km per month would consume roughly 87 litres of petrol monthly. At Rs. 94.77 per litre, that equals about Rs. 8,200 per month in fuel spending. Over three years, that reaches roughly Rs. 3 lakh. Now, take the VinFast VF 7 as an example. The vehicle carries a 75.3 kWh battery and offers a driving range of about 450 km. That works out to an energy consumption of roughly 16.7 kWh per 100 km. For someone driving around 1,350 km per month, the car would need about 225 kWh of electricity. Public EV charging in India typically costs Rs. 10-Rs. 17 per kWh, depending on the charging network and location. Using the midpoint of that range, about Rs. 13.5 per kWh, charging the VF 7 would normally cost around Rs. 3,000 per month for someone driving 1,350 km. Even at that rate, electricity remains significantly cheaper than petrol. Under the same driving assumptions, a typical petrol SUV would spend roughly Rs. 8,200 per month on fuel. And with VinFasts extended free charging program, because owners can charge at V-Green stations without paying until March 2029, the electricity cost during the first years effectively drops to zero. For a driver travelling 1,350 km each month, that removes about Rs. 8,200 in fuel expenses every month. Over a year, the savings add up to roughly Rs. 98,000, and over three years to about Rs. 2.9 lakh. When people actually sit down and run the numbers, they start seeing EVs as a truly cost-effective alternative, not just an experiment , said Arjun Mehta , a veteran sales advisor in Bengaluru. EV economics go beyond charging But the charging program is only part of the picture. A conventional engine has many mechanical parts that wear over time, which is why regular servicing typically involves oil changes, spark plugs, filters and other components. Meanwhile, electric drivetrains are mechanically simpler, so maintenance tends to be lighter. In this respect, VinFast adds another layer of cost savings by offering free maintenance for three years or up to 36,000 km, whichever comes first. Most recently, Vingroup, the parent company of VinFast, launched a special Trade Gas for Electric program running from March 11 to April 30, 2026, offering an additional 3 percent discount on VinFast electric cars for customers trading in a petrol vehicle. The program is being rolled out simultaneously across several markets, including India, and applies on top of existing incentives. In addition, the company already provides financial support for drivers switching from petrol or diesel vehicles. Buyers who sell their existing internal combustion vehicle and purchase a VinFast EV receive a direct cash discount on the purchase price. Taken together, these factors gradually tilt the ownership math toward electric vehicles. Fuel savings play the biggest role, but lower servicing costs and purchase incentives also contribute. For many buyers evaluating EVs today, the question is becoming less about technology and more about everyday expenses.

IPL 2026: 'Rahul's Technique Helped Him Counter Hazlewood,' Says Finch After DC Beat RCB

Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium: Former Australian cricketer Aaron Finch feels that Delhi Capitals (DC) wicketkeeper batter KL Rahul's technique helped him conquer Josh Hazlewood's challenge in the 26th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 clash against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) at M.Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on Saturday.

'We Made 175 Feel Like 190': Karthik Praises RCB's Fightback Despite Loss To DC

Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) batting coach Dinesh Karthik believes his side punched above their weight with the ball and made 175-run total feel like 190 despite ending up on the losing side against Delhi Capitals (DC) in a last-over thriller. RCB posted 175/8 after being put in to bat, with Phil Salt leading the charge with a brisk 63.
