'Dhoni Wont Risk Disrupting CSKs Winning Combination Against LSG': Kumble
Chennai Super Kings: Former India captain Anil Kumble believes veteran wicketkeeper-batter MS Dhoni may not feature for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) despite working hard to regain full match fitness, as the five-time champions would not want to disturb a successful combination. Speaking ahead of the IPL clash, Kumble said CSK is a side that strongly believes in continuity and rarely changes a winning XI. CSK are the kind of side that dont like their winning streak to end. They dont tinker much with their winning combination, and they believe in backing their players, Kumble told Jio Hotstar. The former India spinner revealed that Dhoni has been putting in extra effort behind the scenes, including spending significant time batting and wicketkeeping during practice sessions. Now, MS Dhoni has been batting a lot in the nets. He has even been practicing wicketkeeping in net sessions, which is very surprising because he is someone who never keeps wickets in the nets. He is doing that and trying his best to return to full match fitness, he added. However, Kumble feels the five-time IPL-winning captain may still choose not to return immediately if it risks affectin the balance and rhythm of the side. But even if he manages to regain the required fitness levels, I feel he will not want to come into the playing XI because CSK are doing well. He will not take the chance of disrupting the teams momentum and the player combination that has helped them win, Kumble said. However, Kumble feels the five-time IPL-winning captain may still choose not to return immediately if it risks affectin the balance and rhythm of the side.

Chennai Super Kings: Chennai Super Kings assistant bowling coach Sridharan Sriram has lauded spin duo of Akeal Hosein and Noor Ahmad for their preparation and tactical awareness, saying the duos clarity of plans has been central to the sides recent success in IPL 2026. Noor (11 scalps) and Hosein (seven scalps) have steadily formed a good spin bowling pair for CSK, who are at ten points from as many games and a win over Lucknow Super Giants at Chepauk on Sunday afternoon will brighten their chances in a tight race to the playoffs.

They're well-prepared in terms of being tactically aware of what to plan against different oppositions, said Sriram in the pre-match press conference on Saturday.

IPL 2026: Skipper Parag Out, Hetmyer In As Jaiswal-led RR Opt To Bowl Against GT
Indian Premier League: Rajasthan Royals won the toss and elected to bowl against Gujarat Titans in their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 encounter here at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium on Saturday. Yashasvi Jaiswal is leading the home team in the absence of regular skipper Riyan Parag, who has been sidelined after pulling his hamstring during the teams previous outing. Rajasthan Royals head into the clash looking to bounce back after a seven-wicket loss to Delhi Capitals. After winning four of their opening five matches, RRs campaign has slowed, with three defeats in their last five outings. Led by Riyan Parag, the Royals currently sit fourth on the points table with 12 points from 10 games. Meanwhile, Gujarat Titans arrive in strong form after registering three successive wins over Chennai Super Kings, Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Punjab Kings, respectively. The Titans are fifth with 12 points and can break into the top four with a victory. Historically, Gujarat Titans have enjoyed the upper hand in this rivalry, winning six of the nine meetings between the two sides. However, Rajasthan Royals claimed victory in their most recent encounter on April 4. Winning the toss, RRs stand-in skipper Jaiswal said, We are going to bowl first. I think the wicket is pretty good and we want to chase it. Riyan pulled his hamstring last game, so I feel he'll be coming back soon. Shimron Hetmyer comes in and Yash Raj Punja comes in. That's the two guys who have been coming in. I'm really excited, looking forward to the game. Meanwhile, GT captain Shubman Gill said, We would have bowled first as well honestly. We have got one change. Prasid comes back in place of Manav Suthar. I think it's important to look back at your strengths as a batting group or as a bowling group. What are the things that has got us so much success as a team. So, there were some areas that, you know, we went back and we reflected. Most of the games that we have played there have been pretty close. So, it's all about doing that extra effort, putting that, you know, if something is going well for you, having the belief to be able to have that execution. Yeah, I mean, we're going to see how the first couple of overs, 2-3 overs go. There's obviously a par score and then you want to get 10-15 extra on top of the pass score to give that extra cushion to the bowlers.
