4th T20I: Injured Rana, Chakaravarthy Ruled Out Of Remaining Games Against England

The BCCI Medical Team: In a major blow to the Indian team, seam-bowling all-rounder Harshit Rana and wrist-spinner Varun Chakaravarthy have been ruled out of the remainder of the ongoing T20I series against England due to hamstring injuries. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) confirmed the development shortly after the toss for the crucial fourth T20I at the County Ground, with India electing to bat first in a must-win clash. Harshit Rana and Varun Chakaravarthy sustained hamstring injuries in the third T20I against England at Trent Bridge. The BCCI Medical Team has assessed them and ruled them out of the 4th and 5th T20Is, said the BCCI in an official statement. Rana recently returned to the setup after a knee injury requiring surgery kept him out of the victorious T20 World Cup campaign and IPL 2026. Chakaravarthy, meanwhile, had missed the 2-0 T20I series defeat in Ireland due to foot injury rehab at the BCCI Centre of Excellence (CoE) in Bengaluru. In the duos absence, pacer Prasidh Krishna and off-spin bowling all-rounder Washington Sundar have found their way back into the playing eleven for the fourth game. The injury setback also means that Rana is likely to be out of the subsequent three-match ODI series against England, starting on July 14. Rana recently returned to the setup after a knee injury requiring surgery kept him out of the victorious T20 World Cup campaign and IPL 2026. Chakaravarthy, meanwhile, had missed the 2-0 T20I series defeat in Ireland due to foot injury rehab at the BCCI Centre of Excellence (CoE) in Bengaluru.

On Thursday, the four franchises spent heavily to get their desired players and complete their teams for the upcoming tournament. The marquee tournament is scheduled to be played at the iconic M. Chinnaswamy Stadium from July 22 to August 2 and will be contested between four teams -- Mysore Warriors, Gulbarga Mystics, Kalyani Bengaluru Blasters, and Hubli Tigers. The Blasters, Mysuru Warriors, and Hubli Tigers were not too far behind in the bidding war.

They also added Pooja Kumari (Rs 1.1 lakh) and Pushpa Kiresur (Rs 1 lakh) to their roster. The Gulbarga Mystics focused heavily on experienced heads, snapping up veteran Indian left-arm spinner Rajeshwari Gayakwad for a modest Rs 3.3 lakh. They also bagged wicketkeeper-batter Shreya Chavan for Rs 3.2 lakh, alongside useful reinforcements in Prerana GR (Rs 2.6 lakh), Soumya Verma (Rs 2.4 lakh), Roshini Kiran (Rs 1 lakh), and Aditi R (Rs 90,000).

Maharaja Trophy KSCA T20: Nair Powers Coastal Kings Mangaluru To Thrilling Win Over Gulbarga Mystics

Maharaja Trophy KSCA T20: Captain Karun Nair produced another match-winning innings as Coastal Kings Mangaluru edged Gulbarga Mystics by three runs in the final league match of the Maharaja Trophy KSCA T20 tournament at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on Wednesday. With the playoff spots already decided before the match, there was little at stake except final standings. But the contest delivered an exciting finish, with the Mystics falling just short in their chase of 170. The Coastal Kings posted 169-9 before restricting the Mystics to 166/7, sealing their fifth win in 10 matches to finish second in the standings with 11 points. Bengaluru Blasters topped the table with 18 points, followed by Shivamogga Yodhas (10) and Mysore Warriors (9). Gulbarga Mystics finished fifth on six points, ahead of Hubli Tigers on net run rate. The play-offs begin on Friday, with the Shivamogga Yodhas taking on the Mysore Warriors in the Eliminator before the Bengaluru Blasters face the Coastal Kings Mangaluru in Qualifier 1. Nair once again anchored the Coastal Kings' innings with a superb 65 off 37 balls, striking eight fours and two sixes. Walking in after the early loss of two wickets with the score at 30-2, the experienced Karnataka batter steadied the innings through partnerships of 59 with Prajwal Pavan (35) and 50 with Suraj Ahuja. His dismissal for 149-5 in the 18th over sparked a late collapse as the Kings lost four wickets for just 20 runs. Kranthi Kumar (3-38) and Suhas Purushotham (2-27) bowled impressive closing spells to restrict the total to 169. Nair's third half-century of the tournament, and his highest score this season, took his tally to 294 runs from nine innings. The Mystics made an aggressive start through openers Macneil Noronha and Aarav Mahesh. Noronha plundered 17 runs from the opening over as the pair raced to 58 without loss in the Powerplay before adding 70 for the first wicket. Noronha top-scored with 44, while Aarav made 27. Dhruv Prabhakar (28) and Manish Pandey (23) revived the chase with a brisk 40-run stand for the fourth wicket, but their dismissals in quick succession shifted the momentum back in the Kings' favour. Despite a late flourish from Kranthi Kumar (30), the Mystics were left needing seven off the final over and eventually finished three runs short. The Mystics impressed in the field, with Noronha claiming three catches in addition to a wicket, while Thippa Reddy produced one of the catches of the tournament with a superb running effort.

Maharaja Trophy KSCA T20: Vyshak, Rai Fire Mysuru Warriors Into Knockouts

Maharaja Trophy KSCA T20: Captain Vyshak Vijaykumar produced a sensational spell of fast bowling as Mysuru Warriors stormed into the knockout stage of the Maharaja Trophy KSCA T20 tournament with a commanding six-wicket victory over Shivamogga Yodhas at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on Wednesday. After electing to bowl, the Warriors dismantled the Yodhas for just 66 in 10.5 overs before chasing down the target in only 10 overs to seal their place in the last four. The result ensured Mysuru Warriors finished with nine points from 10 matches to claim the fourth and final knockout berth. Shivamogga Yodhas, despite the defeat, qualified in second place with 10 points, while Bengaluru Blasters topped the table with 18 points. With the final playoff spot up for grabs before the match, the Warriors knew that a victory by any margin would eliminate Gulbarga Mystics from contention. They responded in emphatic fashion with one of the most dominant bowling performances of the season. The foundation was laid by Arbind Kumar Rai, whose disciplined swing bowling accounted for the key wickets of Luvnith Sisodia (12), Harshil Dharmani (8), and Sujay Sateri (0). His figures of 3-28 reduced the Yodhas to 57 for five in the seventh over. Vyshak then delivered a spell to remember. Introduced after Rai's opening burst, the Warriors skipper conceded just one run in 1.5 overs while claiming three wickets. After giving away a single off his first ball, Vyshak bowled 10 consecutive dot deliveries, striking with his sixth, ninth, and 11th balls to finish with extraordinary figures of 3 for 1. Left-arm spinner Madhav Bajaj played an equally significant role, returning 3 for 9 in three overs to tighten the screws through the middle, while Ritesh Bhatkal provided the early breakthrough by dismissing opener M.G. Naveen. It was a dramatic batting collapse for the Yodhas, who entered the contest on the back of three successive victories. Only four batters reached double figures, while five were dismissed without scoring as the innings folded for the tournament's lowest total. The chase was straightforward despite the Warriors losing four wickets along the way. L.R. Chethan top-scored with 26 as Mysuru reached the target comfortably with 60 balls to spare.
