Kolkata Knight Riders: Mumbai Indians captain Hardik Pandya won the toss and elected to bowl first against Kolkata Knight Riders in their opening match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Sunday.

'Rusty, But Not Far Off': Vettori Backs SRH To Bounce Back After RCB Loss
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Head coach Daniel Vettori motivated the players after Sunrisers Hyderabads (SRH) six wicket defeat to Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 opener played at the M.Chinnaswamy Stadium on Saturday calling the performance 'rusty but far from alarming. Reflecting on the outcome, Vettori admitted it was one of those days you want to avoid, but stressed the importance of focusing on positives rather than dwelling on the result. I think today is one of those days you want to avoid because it symbolizes a little bit of rust, he said. But you also look at the things that went reasonably well and the things that went against us, he said in a dressing room video released by SRH on X. The former New Zealand captain was particularly impressed with SRHs batting effort, highlighting the teams recovery from the powerplay where they lost three wickets to post a competitive total of 201 under challenging circumstances. From a batting display, to get from that powerplay to a very good score shows the quality of that top seven, The way you guys came together in the first game, even in challenging circumstances, was really impressive, he noted Ishan and Klaasen managing that phase, and then the work at the back end to put us in a good position, was very impressive, he added. However, the coach was candid about the shortcomings with the ball, pointing out that execution of plans was well below expectations. The challenge for us is to understand what we did poorly with the ball, he said. We spoke about finding the right length and sticking to our strengths, but today we were quite a long way off it. He revealed that conceding too many hittable deliveries proved costly. Ten full balls went for six. When that happens, youre always up against the game, he explained. Despite the bowling struggles, Vettori refrained from singling out individuals, instead framing it as a collective learning opportunity I dont want to make this about bowlers not doing their job. Its a challenge for all of us heading into the next game, he said. Looking ahead to their next fixture against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at Eden Gardens, Vettori emphasized the importance of preparation and adaptability. Weve got two training days in Kolkata to rectify things, understand that wicket and plan how were going to bowl to those batsmen, he said. He also highlighted lapses in the field, attributing them to early-season rustiness. Today felt tentative. Guys were in the wrong positions at times. But when we bowl well, the fielding will come along as well, he observed. Vettori urged players to view the loss as a stepping stone rather than a setback and look to improve the fault lines. We understand it was a rusty performance and we werent at our best, but it starts now, Tidy up two balls, and suddenly things look very different. These are small margins. Vettori urged players to view the loss as a stepping stone rather than a setback and look to improve the fault lines. Also Read: Live Cricket Score Despite posting a competitive 201/9, powered by a blistering 80 from Ishan Kishan and a late surge from Aniket Verma, SRH were outplayed by a dominant RCB batting unit led by Virat Kohli and Devdutt Padikkal as they chased down the target in just 15.4 overs against a sloppy bowling effort from the visitors.

Mumbai Indians Set to Play 300th T20 Match in IPL 2026 Opener vs KKR
A historic landmark awaits the Mumbai Indians as they gear up for their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 opener against Kolkata Knight Riders at the iconic Wankhede Stadium on Sunday. Beyond the immediate goal of ending a five-year title drought, the five-time champions will mark another feather in their cap, becoming the first IPL franchise to play 300 T20 matches. MI will be only the third team to reach 300 or more T20 matches, after Pakistan and Somerset, each with 303. Among IPL teams, MI is second to Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) with 287 matches, followed by Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) with 281. Mumbai have played 277 IPL matches over 18 seasons and 22 Champions League T20 matches across five seasons.

IPL 2026: 'They Didn't Show Enough Responsibility After Early Wickets,' Says Pathan On SRH Batting
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan believes Sunrisers Hyderabads (SRH) struggles in the powerplay with the bat and ineffective bowling led to their six-wicket loss against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in the IPL 2026 opener played at the M.Chinnaswamy Stadium on Saturday. Reflecting on the defeat, Pathan pointed out that SRH failed to capitalise on the powerplay after losing early wickets, which hampered their ability to post a truly imposing total. Ishan Kishan mentioned after the game that they would have to look at their approach, especially at the start. If you lose regular wickets, you have to play with more responsibility, which didnt happen, Pathan told Jio Hotstar. SRH found themselves in early trouble after losing three wickets inside the Powerplay, forcing the middle order to consolidate rather than accelerate. While they eventually reached the 200-run mark, Pathan felt the total was below par given the nature of the pitch. They lost three early wickets, and once that happens, it becomes very difficult to push beyond 200. They eventually scored 200, but it wasnt enough on this pitch, he added. Pathan also highlighted SRHs lack of bowling resources as a major concern, especially in the absence of control during crucial phases of the game. It was a mix of not getting a good start and the bowling not being up to the mark. Kishan was under pressure, and its never easy when you are leading a side in the IPL for the first time, he noted. The former cricketer emphasised that managing the Powerplay, both with bat and ball, will be key for SRH moving forward in the tournament. It was a mix of not getting a good start and the bowling not being up to the mark. Kishan was under pressure, and its never easy when you are leading a side in the IPL for the first time, he noted.

IPL 2026: Kohli's Six-hitting Ability Has Increased In The Last Two Seasons, Believes Steyn
Former South Africa: Former South Africa fast bowler Dale Steyn has hailed Virat Kohlis evolution as a batter in the Indian Premier League (IPL), pointing out that his enhanced six-hitting ability over the last two seasons of the competition has been a standout factor. At the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, Kohli left everyone spellbound by hitting an unbeaten 69 and helping RCB begin their title defence by chasing down a target of 202 in 15.4 overs. Kohli entered IPL 2026 after a ten-month break from T20s and making 93, 23 and 124 in three ODIs against New Zealand in January. A lot of players, when they reach the level Virat Kohli is at right now, look to change their game by a couple of percentages. That is what Virat has been doing every IPL season. He looks for ways to improve himself and the new improvement which he has made in his game is his six-hitting ability, which has increased over the last two seasons. As a batter, its about recognising a ball that you want to hit for a six. In the past, Virat had a set mindset of playing a particular shot. But now, his mentality has changed a lot after retiring from Test cricket. Virat is so good and backs himself so much that he is able to execute the aerial shots time and again. This just shows the class of the man, said Steyn on JioStar. Numbers from CricViz also show how Kohli has upped his attacking intent in the powerplay in the IPL. In 2020, Kohlis attacking shot percentage in the first six overs stood at 31.5 per cent. The following year saw a rise to 37.8 per cent, before climbing further to 45.5 per cent in 2022. The upward curve continued in 2023, when his attacking intent touched 54.6 per cent. By 2024, the figure had surged to 60.6 per cent, while, in 2025, Kohlis attacking shot percentage in the powerplay rose to 66.3 per cent. RCBs top-order batter Devdutt Padikkal credited Kohlis presence for helping the side complete the chase with 26 balls to spare. It feels good to start off the new season with a win, especially at Bengaluru. The Chinnaswamy Stadium holds a special place in our hearts, and we wanted to give back to our fans who helped us win the trophy last year. When I came out to bat, Virat bhais only instruction was to keep the run-rate up and put pressure on the bowlers. My job was to take risks while he anchored the chase. His presence took the pressure off me and let me play freely. We knew SRHs bowling is not very strong, so we believed we could chase down the target in a smooth manner. We lost Phil Salt early, but it was important to keep the pressure on, so SRH wouldnt get the chance to come back into the game. We did that well and secured the win, he said. Padikkal also acknowledged the role of RCB head coach Andy Flower and batting coach Dinesh Karthik in shaping his aggressive batting style in T20s. The credit for the evolution and improvement of my game goes to our head coach Andy Flower and our batting coach Dinesh Karthik, bhai. They really worked hard on me. We knew SRHs bowling is not very strong, so we believed we could chase down the target in a smooth manner. We lost Phil Salt early, but it was important to keep the pressure on, so SRH wouldnt get the chance to come back into the game. We did that well and secured the win, he said. Also Read: Live Cricket Score When I first came into the IPL in 2020, the cricket we played was very different from what is being played now. So, it was important that I believe in myself that I can do it. I feel Andy and DK helped me get there, he concluded. Article Source: IANS

IPL 2026: Virat Kohli's aggressive powerplay approach from 31% to 66% shot percentage
Virat Kohli's batting approach in the IPL's initial overs has significantly evolved. His shot percentage has risen, reflecting greater intent and aggression during the powerplay. This tactical shift has helped him capitalize on fielding restrictions. Kohli recently guided Royal Challengers Bengaluru to a win, scoring 69 off 38 balls.
Batting With Virat Makes Your Job A Whole Lot Easier: Padikkal
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Batting alongside Virat Kohli in a run chase is less about pressure and more about clarity, a sentiment Devdutt Padikkal summed up after Royal Challengers Bengalurus commanding win to open their IPL 2026 campaign. For Padikkal, Kohlis presence at the other end influences how a chase develops, giving him the freedom to play more openly while feeling confident that the pace is managed. In a format where chasing 200-plus totals often demands both aggression and composure, Padikkals fluent 61 off 26 balls was perfectly complemented by Kohlis unbeaten 69, as RCB cruised past Sunrisers Hyderabad with ease. The left-hander pointed to Kohlis unmatched game awareness in such situations, explaining how it simplifies decision-making and allows his partners to slot naturally into the rhythm of the chase. It feels great, you know. We missed playing here. It's good to come back to the Chinnaswamy Stadium and as usual the fans were amazing and when you have that support behind you, it's always great to start with a win, Padikkal said in a video shared by IPL. While RCBs batting dominated headlines, Padikkal was quick to acknowledge the impact of debutant Jacob Duffy, whose 3-22 helped restrict SRH despite a strong total. It's not easy for someone to come in in their first game and really make an impact, especially in a stadium like Chinnaswamy, where you can go for runs and get flustered pretty quick, he said. Padikkal highlighted the importance of early wickets against a dangerous SRH top order, crediting Duffys discipline and courage under pressure, saying, So, for someone like him, the way he showed up and the courage he showed, the lengths he bowled, especially against their top three, they have a formidable top three, so it was really important that we started well and got a few wickets up front and he did that job for us. Padikkals innings was marked by fearless strokeplay, but he attributed his form to clarity in preparation and sticking to a consistent approach rather than chasing moments. I think I've been batting really well. So, when you have that confidence and the runs behind you, it always gets a little easier when you go out there. But at the same time, every game is a new game and you have to stick to your processes and stick to things that have been working for you over the last couple of years and that's what I look to do, he stated. Padikkals innings was marked by fearless strokeplay, but he attributed his form to clarity in preparation and sticking to a consistent approach rather than chasing moments. Also Read: Live Cricket Score Especially in chases, when you're batting alongside Virat, it makes your job a whole lot easier because he knows the tempo that's required to chase down totals and when you have that from one end, it makes your game a lot easier because you know the tempo that you need to go to at that point. So, just having him alongside me through all these chases so far in the last couple of years has been great, Padikkal mentioned. Article Source: IANS
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) skipper heaped praise on former captain Virat Kohli after his unbeaten 69-run knock helped the team register a dominant 6-wicket win against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in their opening match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) played at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium. Kohli smashed an unbeaten 69 off 38 balls, laced with five fours and five sixes, as he registered his 64th IPL fifty and became the first batter in IPL history to cross 4000 runs in chases. With the help of his innings, RCB chased down the target of 202 runs with 26 balls to spare. Virat Kohli is our number one chase master, as we know. I always admired his batting, and to watch his batting from the dugout, the way he played, the way he played his shots, the way he assessed the situation, I think that was really good to see always, Patidar said in the post-match press conference. 'I feel like he is at his peak, and I have no words to describe his innings. He is my idol, and the way I saw him in the nets - the same energy, the same eagerness to perform and dominate the game. I think that was beautiful, and I am learning a lot from watching him, he added. Patidar also described the thought behind giving Jacob Duffy, who was looking in great touch, a fourth consecutive over. It was not pre- decided, I decided after the third over. Klassen and Ishan Kishan were already there, and I thought if we get one more wicket here, we will destroy the whole batting line-up, so that's why I gave him the fourth over and he bowled beautifully, he said. Patidar also described the thought behind giving Jacob Duffy, who was looking in great touch, a fourth consecutive over.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Former Indian cricketer Ambati Rayudu has lauded Virat Kohli's consistency and suggested a red ball return for the 37-year-old after his unbeaten 69-run knock helped the defending champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) register a dominant 6 wickets win against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in their opening match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) played at the M. Chinnaswamy stadium on Saturday. Virat's innings included five fours and five sixes, as he registered his 64th IPL fifty and became the first batter in IPL history to cross 4000 runs in chases. With the help of this, RCB chased down the target of 202 runs with 26 balls to spare. Rayudu believes that the way Virat is batting in ODIs and continuing his form in the biggest T20 league is quite amazing. According to the former player, Virat still has five to six years of international cricket left in him. I feel his best is yet to come in the IPL. What we have seen is just a trailer. Fitness was never an issue with him. I don't think he would ever get into any trouble with his physical fitness, getting late on the ball, or slowing down on the field. The only thing that can make him take a step back is his mental state. I don't think he's anywhere closer to the end of his career. I still see quality five to six years in him, Rayudu said in a video released by ESPNcricinfo on X. I think he should make a comeback in Test cricket. Hopefully, as a captain. He's been the best red-ball captain that at least I have seen in Indian cricket. He should, the way he's batting, I think it's a loss for Indian cricket, he added.

'I Find Him Quite Bizarre At This Age': Ashwin's Special Praise For Virat's Enthusiasm For The Game
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Former India off-spin great Ravichandran Ashwin has reserved special praise for the energy Virat Kohli brought to his batting, saying he finds him quite bizarre at this age after the 37-year-old enthralled the home crowd with an unbeaten 69 balls in Royal Challengers Bengaluru's (RCB) win over Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the IPL 2026 opener at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium. Kohli, returning to playing T20 cricket after ten months, scored an unbeaten 69 off 38 balls, laced with five fours and five sixes as RCB launched their campaign in commanding fashion, chasing down a stiff target of 202 to defeat SRH by six wickets with 26 balls to spare. I find him quite bizarre at this age. I tell him this during our chats now and then. He was batting on 40-odd, there was a partnership going on, and RCB were coasting. He ran through for the first single, stopped there, and the other batter hadnt even reached halfway, but he was already looking for a second, Ashwins said on JioStar. Chasing 202, RCB approached the task with intent. While Phil Salt fell early, Devdutt Padikkal took control of the innings with a fearless approach. At the other end, Kohli played the perfect foil, allowing Padikkal to dictate terms as the duo added a blistering 101 runs in just 45 balls. I find him quite bizarre at this age. I tell him this during our chats now and then. He was batting on 40-odd, there was a partnership going on, and RCB were coasting.

Daniel Vettori Admits SRH Bowling Lapses After Loss to RCB in IPL 2026 Opener
Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) head coach Daniel Vettori did not shy away from calling out his sides bowling shortcomings after a heavy six-wicket loss to defending champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 opener at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium on Saturday. Despite posting a competitive 201/9, powered by a blistering 80 from Ishan Kishan and a late surge from Aniket Verma, SRH were outplayed by a dominant RCB batting unit led by Virat Kohli and Devdutt Padikkal. Vettori admitted his side failed to match RCBs execution with the ball. I think we understand where the game's gone and how destructive that RCB batting line-up is. You have to get a good start, which we did against Salt, but then I just think we weren't at our best with the ball, we weren't as disciplined as we needed to be, and we gave a lot of scoring opportunities to Virat and Padikkal, who played exceptionally well, he said during the post-match presentation. RCBs chase was defined by relentless aggression, particularly from Padikkal, whose rapid 61 off 26 balls tilted the contest decisively during the powerplay. Vettori highlighted how SRH failed to capitalise after an early breakthrough. I thought the way his (Padikkal's) intent, when he came out, put us right back under pressure, where we should have been able to maintain a little bit more after getting that important wicket of Salt. So it was a very good batting performance by RCB and one of our poorer bowling performances, he said. With regular captain Pat Cummins absent, SRHs bowling unit struggled for control on a surface that demanded precision. Vettori pointed to a failure in execution rather than planning. I think we learned a lot from how RCB bowled and what was effective and what wasn't, and obviously we discussed that, but we just weren't able to implement that. You don't want to have a rusty performance because of how important every game is in the IPL, particularly how to start. But today was one of our challenging bowling displays. We saw at the back end when we started to go back to our usual disciplines that we could actually be effective and take some wickets, but I think we just missed our lengths too much. Duffy, in particular, showed the length to bowl on that surface, the New Zealand veteran noted. SRH handed a late debut to David Payne, who replaced Brydon Carse just days before the opener. Though he conceded heavily early, Payne bounced back to pick up two key wickets. Vettori acknowledged the difficult circumstances but remained encouraged. We put him in a tough situation tonight to come in, but we just thought with the balance of the team, we needed that bowling. By the end of the day, his figures were pretty good, and he showed that he can be effective even in these conditions where the wickets are really good. I think with Pat coming back later in the tournament, Carse hopefully back soon, and Payne, that gives us some good options, Vettori added. Amid the defeat, Vettori singled out young spinner Harsh Dubey for his composure, especially after dismissing Padikkal at a crucial juncture. For this last year or so, he's been incredible in red- and white-ball cricket, Vettori said. We were fortunate that we picked him up [at] the back end of last year because he probably could have been one of the big buys of the auction this season, but he is a clever bowler, and bowling spin here is not easy. It's a small ground, and the surface is pretty challenging, and even for the likes of Krunal (Pandya), who is such an experienced campaigner. So to see him come in today, understand what he needs to do, take an important wicket, there will be a couple of things that he wants to improve on, but I think he's going to be a real asset for us this season, the Kiwi stated. Vettori also drew encouragement from SRHs batting depth, particularly the late assault from Aniket, which pushed the total past 200 after early setbacks. We've got a lot of trust in our batting unit. You see Aniket coming in at seven and being still able to be aggressive and put us in a position where we had a chance of a defendable total. We don't expect Abhi and Trav to do it every game - we expect them to win a couple of games a season, and we hand that off to all of the batting unit. So that top seven is incredibly impressive, and even after that tough start to get to 200 shows the calibre of that group, he said. We've got a lot of trust in our batting unit. You see Aniket coming in at seven and being still able to be aggressive and put us in a position where we had a chance of a defendable total.
