IPL 2026: PBKS Unbeaten Run A Product Of Culture Built Last Year, Says Spin Bowling Coach Bahutule
Arun Jaitley Stadium: Punjab Kings spin bowling coach Sairaj Bahutule has attributed the franchise's unbeaten run in IPL 2026 to the culture and values instilled by head coach Ricky Ponting and captain Shreyas Iyer from last year. PBKS head into Saturday's afternoon fixture against Delhi Capitals at the Arun Jaitley Stadium as the only unbeaten side in the tournament, and Bahutule was emphatic in saying that the groundwork was laid well before this season began. See, I think it started from last year and the way they have played and operated on the field from last year. I think the culture which has been built by Ricky, the values which have been built by him from last year itself, have been taken forward this year. So the success of last year, whatever, yes, we didn't go further and win the finals. But I think that culture which was created, the same sort of values have been taken forward. Each one is understanding their responsibilities. With Shreyas being the captain and Ricky being the head coach, the collaboration is so good that we are very clear in terms of how we want to approach each game. I think all of us know that this tournament is quite a high-risk, high-pressure tournament. Yes, we started really well. We have been playing really well in terms of batting, bowling and fielding. But I think as a group we know that we have to take one game at a time and not go too ahead of ourselves and be as much in the present as possible and that's what we have been doing each game. One is understanding who we play against, what the opposition is, where we are playing. So all these points we just consider and move slowly and steadily in terms of each game. So now we look forward for the game tomorrow. It's an afternoon game. Things change in terms of adaptation. So small steps will take us to where we want to go, Bahutule said, while replying to a query from IANS in the pre-match press conference. Punjab Kings' bowling attack, particularly in the death overs, has been brilliant in applying the squeeze on opposition batters in the death overs. Bahutule credited fast bowling coach James Hopes for the sharpness of the pace bowling unit, which includes Arshdeep Singh, Vijaykumar Vyshak, Xavier Bartlett and Marco Jansen. I think with our Indian bowlers, with Vyshak, Arshdeep and obviously Bartlett, it makes a huge difference in terms of understanding how and what is needed for them in the different phases. In the second phase, obviously a lot of execution is important. I think in all the games till now, they have executed according to the plans. We try and keep it very simple. We don't complicate things and whatever the bowlers, all these bowlers who are bowling really well. Marco also can be used in any phase. We try and see how they can be used to their optimal in different phases and they have been responding really well. I think James Hopes, who is our fast bowling coach, he has done a wonderful job with all these bowlers. I think the clarity is so good that it helps them to perform better, he added. Bahutule, who has watched Iyer develop closely over the years due to both of them hailing from Mumbai, described him as a natural leader whose composure under pressure sets him apart. I think he has been a Mumbai boy and I have seen his growth over a period of time. His leadership qualities are something which are special in the way that he is not only responsible towards himself but also to the 10 guys who are playing on the field as well as his collaboration with all the support staff as well as guys who are not playing is phenomenal. I think the rapport he has with each player and he understands them, he knows how to get the best out of a player on the field. He is somebody who is very calm and composed in terms of his understanding towards the situation. Once you are calm and composed, you obviously have clarity in your thought process and I think that is what he does. In a pressure situation, he knows exactly how to handle that. If any of the players by chance don't play to their potential that particular time, he will still make sure that he believes in them and calms them off and gets the best out of them. So I think he is very special. I think in the coming time, he will have some future as a captain as well, he elaborated. Asked whether sustaining the winning momentum would bring added pressure, Bahutule, the former India spinner acknowledged that challenging situations lie ahead but backed the squad's depth to weather any storm. In a pressure situation, he knows exactly how to handle that. If any of the players by chance don't play to their potential that particular time, he will still make sure that he believes in them and calms them off and gets the best out of them. So I think he is very special. I think in the coming time, he will have some future as a captain as well, he elaborated. Also Read: Live Cricket Score But I think we are so well equipped in our batting order that there is a depth in it. When it comes to bowling, again, new ball bowling is something which, again, it's good. But we need to improve on that. But otherwise, again, the mid and the death overs have been fabulous for us. So I think each department has its own understanding, he signed off. Article Source: IANS

IPL 2026: Unbeaten PBKS Aim To Extend Perfect Run Against Inconsistent DC (Preview)
Indian Premier League: An unbeaten Punjab Kings will look to maintain a perfect run in the 2026 Indian Premier League (IPL) season when they face an inconsistent Delhi Capitals at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Saturday afternoon. The contrast between the two teams is pretty evident PBKS have won five of their six games, with one ending in no-result, and sit at the top of the table. DC, meanwhile, have three wins and as many losses, to be at sixth position in the points tally. What makes Punjab so formidable is the stability in their line-up. Shreyas Iyer's side has used only 12 players all season - the fewest personnel used by any team - and that stability in selection has translated directly into role clarity. Their batting unit has been the finest in the ten-team competition - their overall run-rate chart is at 11.3, they are the joint-best scoring team in the powerplay (11.3) and best in scoring runs in the middle overs (11 runs per over). They have hit 69 sixes - the second best for a team in the tournament - and have simply not allowed opposition bowlers to settle. Their openers, Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran Singh, have been the foundation of this dominance. Delhi-based Arya has 211 runs at a strike rate of 248 and his powerplay numbers are equally surreal: 152 runs at a strike rate of 258. Prabhsimran has matched him almost exactly - 211 runs at an average of 52.8, with a strike rate of 187 against pace. As an opening pair, Arya and Prabhsimran have carried on the good work done in IPL 2025 they have put on 197 runs in five innings at a strike rate of 221. Behind them, Cooper Connolly has emerged as one of the finds of the season. The Australian batting all-rounder has scored 223 runs at 55.8 and, crucially, he has shown the temperament to absorb an early wobble before accelerating. Skipper Shreyas Iyer has been in fine nick by scoring three fifties and returns to a venue familiar to him owing to being previously the captain of Delhi Capitals, including being runners-up in the 2020 season. Iyer is all set to play an IPL game in New Delhi for the first time since 2019 and he will be keen to treat the crowd to a great show from his willow. PBKS bowling has been about them performing as a collective rather than being a one-man effort. Arshdeep Singh, wicketless in his first three outings, has found his rhythm and confidence and picked six wickets in the last three games. Marco Jansen, Xavier Bartlett and Vyshak Vijaykumar have done their jobs well, while leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal remains their main threat in the middle overs. In short, PBKS are firing on all cylinders and to derail their winning juggernaut, DC must find a way to bridge the gap between flashes of individual brilliance and collective execution. If Arya and Prabhsimran get going at their usual clip, DC will need their bowlers to take wickets quickly - something that has not happened consistently. DCs run-rate of 8.7 in the first six overs with the bat is the third-lowest in the competition, and onus will be on openers Pathum Nissanka and KL Rahul to match that intent, especially if they are to successfully chase down anything above 200. Beyond them, DC have shuffled their batting order in almost every game and constantly changing their impact player choice has meant they havent zeroed on a settled combination. While David Miller has been excellent in the death overs, despite falling for a duck in the last game, Tristan Stubbs, despite adapting his game very well as per the situations, needs to overcome his slow starts. With the ball, Axar and Kuldeep Yadav need to produce their best performances simultaneously - something that has not happened enough. Against SRH, they curiously bowled only two overs each, even as part-time off-spinner Nitish Rana bowled four overs and leaked 55 runs. Lungi Ngidi and T Natarajan are among the most economical bowlers in overs 17-20 this season and are DCs best hope of inflicting a late-innings squeeze on a formidable PBKS batting line-up. For now, another win for PBKS would see them maintain their best start in an IPL season, while a defeat for DC will put them at the risk of falling further behind in a tightening race to the playoffs.
