IPL 2026: Very Happy To Get The Momentum, Says Gill After GT Secure Top Two Finish
Chennai Super Kings: Gujarat Titans skipper Shubman Gill said he was delighted to see his side regain momentum at the right time, after sealing a toptwo finish in IPL 2026 with a thumping 89-run win over Chennai Super Kings at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Thursday. GTs huge win was set up by Gill, B Sai Sudharsan, and Jos Buttler hitting fifties, while Mohammed Siraj, Kagiso Rabada, and Rashid Khan picked three wickets each. Very important going into the playoffs. Very happy to get the momentum. If I look at the games, even the first couple of games, we were getting close, and it was about adding that extra 5 percent, which we got in the Delhi game. Very happy with the way I am batting. Whenever you get out, you feel you could do more. Yes, the fielding was better than in the last game. When you are playing such an intense game, the emotions come out. Neck is fine. It is about keeping up with the good things we are doing, and that is the key thing for us. After 12 games, we were at number one but lost the last two games and could not finish in the top two. Very grateful for the fans that turn up and support us, said Gill at the conclusion of the game. Player of the Match Siraj said he had worked hard to rediscover his rhythm with the new ball. The ball is coming out nicely. I was sitting out for most games in the World Cup, and I was working hard in the nets. I wasn't bowling well in the first few games, but I have gotten my rhythm back. I work on everything from my rhythm, yorkers, and bowling at different phases. On a red soil pitch, I would always try to get Sanju (Samson) driving. I don't try much and keep things simple, even if I can keep the pressure, then Rabada can pick the wickets.

IPL 2026: Not Many People Buy The Fact That We Are A Young Team In Transition, Says Gaikwad
Chennai Super Kings: Chennai Super Kings (CSK) skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad admitted the franchise is in a phase of transition with several inexperienced players, even as he expressed pride in the units effort despite missing out on the playoffs in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 in Ahmedabad on Thursday. CSKs chances of entering the playoffs ended with them suffering their heaviest defeat in the IPL by 89 runs against Gujarat Titans at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Thursday. Not many people buy the fact that we are a young team in transition, with a lot of inexperienced players. More than 8-10 players have played less than 20 games; they've gotten exposure, and we've found out what areas we're lacking. We still have six away wins, and I'm proud of the unit. We missed out on chasing in Hyderabad and couldn't restrict them in Chennai. Not able to do that, but still proud. Moving on from Rahane, Rayudu, etc., the experience we had is tough... Karthik, Urvil, and Brevis, who missed out initially, are there. Karthik has potential and has areas to improve. Urvil's playing a full season for the first time, that comes with expectations, said Gaikwad at the conclusion of the game. Reflecting on the season, Gaikwad said injuries to Nathan Ellis, Khaleel Ahmed, Ayush Mhatre, Ramakrishna Ghosh, and Jamie Overton unsettled the side at various stages, while admitting the bowlers werent great in Ahmedabad. We wanted to chase whatever the total is asap. When you're chasing 230, it's not easy against that bowling attack. I thought, why don't we give it a shot and express ourselves, credit to them. The wicket was spongy to start, and they started well. Our bowling wasn't good in the Power-play. Hard to stop their openers. We had our chance to restrict them to under 200, but failed to do so. Reflecting on the season, Gaikwad said injuries to Nathan Ellis, Khaleel Ahmed, Ayush Mhatre, Ramakrishna Ghosh, and Jamie Overton unsettled the side at various stages, while admitting the bowlers werent great in Ahmedabad.

IPL 2026: Really Happy With Five Fifties In A Row, But A Lot Of Work To Do, Says Sudharsan
Chennai Super Kings: Gujarat Titans batter B. Sai Sudharsan said he was delighted to notch up five consecutive fifties in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 and be in an exclusive club that has Virender Sehwag, David Warner, and Jos Buttler, but stressed that the teams focus remained firmly on the bigger challenge ahead. Sudharsan, now the leading run-getter in IPL 2026, top-scored with a sparkling 84 as GT posted a mammoth 229/4 in their 20 overs against Chennai Super Kings at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Thursday. I think it feels really awesome to be in that list, but I think there's still a job to do. We have to win this game, and we have to build through the playoffs as well. So my eyes are on that. I'm very happy and grateful for the God to give this opportunity for me to be there, 5 games for the team. Really happy for that, said Sudharsan in a mid-innings chat with the broadcasters. Asked about his approach in tight situations, Sudharsan highlighted the importance of partnerships over personal milestones, as he stitched stands of 125 and 82 with Shubman Gill and Buttler, who hit 64 and 57 not out, respectively. I think the way Shubhi played today was just unbelievable. And even when Jos came in and gave that start, it was tremendous. Maybe I could have been at my best; I probably could have scored 1015 more runs. I think that's in my mind. No, I think we don't see our score and play accordingly.

IPL 2026: Sudharsan, Gill, Buttler Smash Fifties, Power GT To 229/4 Against CSK
Chennai Super Kings: Gujarat Titans rode on fluent fifties from B. Sai Sudharsan, Shubman Gill, and Jos Buttler to post a daunting 229/4 against Chennai Super Kings in their final league stage clash of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Thursday. It was an innings that was straight out of GTs successful template -- the top three batters once again did the bulk of the scoring and laid the foundation for posting a massive total. While Sudharsan top-scored with 84 off 53 balls, Gill smashed 64 off 37 balls, and Buttler applied finishing touches to hit an unbeaten 57 off 27 balls as the trio piled misery on a hapless CSK bowling line-up. Right from the word go, Gill and Sudharsan set the tone for GTs mammoth total on a red soil pitch. Gill came out with all the guys blazing to give GT a flying start, while Sudharsan initially played the supporting role. But once the powerplay ended, both batters shifted their gears beautifully, as boundaries came thick and fast from both ends. Gill raced to a 23ball fifty with a brace of sixes off Noor Ahmad, while also crossing 6000 T20 runs. Sudharsan followed him by getting his fifth consecutive IPL fifty off 35 balls, placing him in a club that already has Virender Sehwag, David Warner, and Buttler. Their 125-run stand also meant Gill and Sudharsan joined Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers to equal the record for most 100run partnerships in IPL-10. Sudharsan has also put together a seventh stand of 100 runs or more with Gill, which has set a new IPL record. CSK finally broke through in the 13th over when Gill miscued off Johnson to mid-wicket. Buttler walked in and immediately lifted Noor for two sixes to keep the tempo high. Sudharsan, meanwhile, continued to strike clean sixes and fours to move into the 80s. The 18th over swung momentum further GTs way. Sudharsan lofted Kamboj for six but perished on the next ball by holing out to long-off. Rahul Tewatia was run out without scoring, but Buttler responded with backtoback boundaries to reach his fifty off 23 balls. Washington Sundar joined Buttler and immediately carved Mukesh Choudhary for a six over third man. Though Sundar gave a catch behind to Urvil Patel on the final ball, GT had crossed 220 by then. Now facing an uphill chase, CSK will hope Sanju Samson, its most effective batter this season, will be fit enough to come out to bat in the second innings after a finger injury saw him get off the field in the second over. The 18th over swung momentum further GTs way. Sudharsan lofted Kamboj for six but perished on the next ball by holing out to long-off. Rahul Tewatia was run out without scoring, but Buttler responded with backtoback boundaries to reach his fifty off 23 balls. Also Read: Live Cricket Score Gujarat Titans 229/4 in 20 overs (B.

Chennai Super Kings: Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have handed opportunities to Gurjapneet Singh and Matthew Short as captain Ruturaj Gaikwad won the toss and elected to bowl first against Gujarat Titans (GT) in Match 66 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Thursday. CSK head into their final league game knowing that a defeat will shut the door on their playoff hopes. Injuries have plagued their campaign, leaving them clinging to slim mathematical chances of entering the last four stage. Though a victory here will not guarantee them a topfour berth, as CSK have to be dependent on other results to go in their favour. After winning the toss, Gaikwad said Gurjapneet and Short are included in place of Akeal Hosein and Prashant Veer. There will be some pace and bounce, and we want to explore it early on. It is about trusting the process, and we didn't get the results our way. We want to keep it simple and turn it around, he said. GT, meanwhile, will be keen to arrest any slide in momentum ahead of the playoffs, and a win over CSK would also strengthen their push for a toptwo finish. Skipper Shubman Gill said pacer Prasidh Krishna replaces R Sai Kishore in their playing eleven when the GT bowling innings comes. We'd have bowled first. Doesn't make a difference as there's not much dew. It's all about keeping the intensity up. Our fielding hasn't been on par in the last couple of seasons. Our bowling has been right up there, and batting has been good too. All three departments need to come together. Just because we have a Q, doesn't mean the job is done. Hope for three more good games, he said. The pitch report by Graeme Swann and Aaron Finch said Thursdays game will be played on a red soil pitch, with square boundaries at 62 and 70 metres respectively, while the ground boundary is at 72 metres. Both opined that the pitch having green grass just tells them that it will hold enough pace in what is expected to be a good batting wicket.

'Hallmark Of A Master': Aakash Chopra Lauds Sunil Narine After KKR Keep Playoff Hopes Alive
Kolkata Knight Riders: Former India cricketer Aakash Chopra heaped praise on veteran all-rounder Sunil Narine after the spinner once again delivered a match-defining spell in Kolkata Knight Riders crucial four-wicket win over Mumbai Indians in IPL 2026. With their playoff hopes hanging by a thread, KKR produced a disciplined all-round performance at Eden Gardens to stay alive in the race. Narine played a central role in restricting Mumbai to 147/8 on a difficult two-paced surface, finishing with miserly figures of 4-1-13-1 and removing MI skipper Hardik Pandya at a key stage of the innings. Speaking about Narines continued dominance in the IPL, Chopra highlighted the spinners remarkable control over length and trajectory, qualities that have troubled batters for years across conditions and venues. He's brilliant. These are the conditions he relishes, but he's equally effective everywhere he's played this season and in seasons gone by. His length is impeccable. You can't hit him off the back foot. He's flat and slightly quicker through the air, where you can't really step down. You won't see him getting clobbered by people stepping down or hitting off the back foot. He bowls in that five-to-seven-metre mark every time, a very difficult trajectory to pick, Chopra told JioStar. Narine's spell proved especially important after rain interrupted Mumbais innings at 57/4 in eight overs. Following the restart, KKR tightened their grip through spin, with Narine and Varun Chakravarthy squeezing the middle overs and denying Mumbai any momentum. Chopra also praised Narines ability to bounce back immediately even after conceding boundaries, calling it one of the defining traits of elite bowlers. Then he's got the variations and the accuracy. One thing that stands out is that when you hit him for a four or a six, he comes back with an equally effective delivery to follow up. And that's the hallmark of a master, he stated. KKR eventually chased down the target with four wickets in hand, thanks largely to a composed 45 from Manish Pandey and a counterattacking 40 from Rovman Powell. The result kept Kolkata mathematically alive in the playoff race heading into their final league-stage fixture. Chopra also reflected on the wider playoff picture and the pressure on teams still battling for qualification spots. Discussing Punjab Kings and their final league game against Lucknow Super Giants, he said PBKS would continue pushing aggressively despite the odds stacked against them. It's not going to be easy, but they would want to fight and come back into the tournament. You get to 15 points, you improve your net run rate, even if it's ever so slightly. And they play that aggressive brand of cricket, Chopra said. Punjabs qualification chances remain dependent not only on their own result, but also on other outcomes, particularly involving Rajasthan Royals. Chopra pointed out that teams like Punjab, Kolkata and even Chennai Super Kings would all be watching Rajasthans final fixture closely. It's not going to be easy, but they would want to fight and come back into the tournament. You get to 15 points, you improve your net run rate, even if it's ever so slightly. And they play that aggressive brand of cricket, Chopra said. Also Read: Live Cricket Score Of course, they'll also have to hope that Rajasthan lose.
