IPL 2026: Aquib Nabi Misses Out As DC Elect To Bowl Against SRH

Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium: Playing his 100th game for the franchise, Delhi Capitals skipper Axar Patel won the toss and elected to bowl first against Sunrisers Hyderabad in the 31st match at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Uppal, Hyderabad on Tuesday. Sunrisers Hyderabad made a single change as Auqib Nabi made way for Nitish Rana, while Ishan Kishan noted that the pitch looks slower than in the previous games. The side has also brought in Harsh Dubey and Dilshan Madushanka, replacing Praful Hinge and possibly Liam Livingstone as they adjust their combination for the conditions. Delhi Capitals captain Axar Patel said, I am getting lucky in terms of the toss, but had we won all the games as well, then it would have been ideal. We are going to bowl first. On playing his 100th IPL match, Patel said, Thank you, thank you so much. I was not aware of this milestone. I never thought that I would play 100 games for Delhi. It's very nice to play your 100th match for a particular franchise and hope that we end the match on a winning note. See, obviously, in order to keep the team balanced, you need to have a set XI and pick your XI according to the wicket. You need to have a flexible squad, and I always tell the same in the team meeting that everyone should contribute to the team. We try to select the best XI for the team. Yes, we have made one change. Auqib Nabi makes way for Nitish Rana, he added. Sunrisers Hyderabad captain Ishan Kishan said, Yeah! I think it is hard to decide, but I don't think it is the same track we have played in the previous two matches. It all depends on how the wicket plays, and we play. We have a few changes. Madushanka comes in. Hinge might miss out. I am still not sure about it. Harsh Dubey comes in as well. We think the track might slow down a bit, and we need that wicket-taking option with the spin as well. They have been doing a very good job. It is all about execution. We will take one game at a time.

Juniper Green Energy Makes History as India's First FDRE Project Enters Commissioning Phase

India's energy transition reaches a defining milestone Juniper's integrated 259 MWp Solar, 280 MW Wind, and 200 MWh BESS project enters commissioning phase across Rajasthan and Gujarat Juniper races ahead of all industry peers to become the FIRST RE developer to begin commissioning under the SJVN FDRE scheme, delivering firm, clean power to Haryana just as summer demand peaks Having already pioneered India's first merchant BESS in Bikaner, Juniper Green Energy Limited now achieves another landmark beginning commissioning of India's first Firm and Dispatchable Renewable Energy (FDRE) project under Government of Indias Flagship FDRE Guidelines, marking yet another historic first for the Indian power sector. The integrated project combines 259 MWp Solar, 280 MW Wind, and 200 MWh BESS spanning Rajasthan and Gujarat, designed to deliver reliable, Firm and Dispatchable clean power aligned precisely to grid demand. Juniper Green Energy's FDRE power plant in Fatehgarh, Barmer, Rajasthan This marks the start of Indias first Firm and Dispatchable Renewable Energy project a defining milestone in our vision to deliver firm and dispatchable renewable power. It reflects Juniper Green Energys strong execution capabilities, technological depth, and commitment to shaping the future of sustainable energy. By seamlessly integrating solar, wind, and battery storage at utility scale, we are not only demonstrating Indias clean energy potential but also setting new benchmarks for reliability and innovation in the sector. FDRE is not just a project type it is our conviction about how India will power its future, said Ankush Malik, CEO, Juniper Green Energy Limited. The FDRE Framework: Powering India's Grid on Demand As India's renewable energy capacity grew rapidly, grid stability became a pressing concern solar stops generating at night and wind cannot be dispatched on demand. To bridge this gap, the Ministry of Power notified FDRE guidelines in June 2023, requiring developers to integrate solar, wind, and battery storage into a single project capable of delivering firm, scheduled power aligned precisely to Discom demand profiles. Unlike conventional renewables, FDRE is firm and dispatchable making it, for the first time, a clean and reliable alternative to coal-based thermal generation Key Project Milestones The 259 MWp solar capacity commenced commercial operations in March 2026, while the 200 MWh BESS capacity began commercial operations in April 2026. Delivering Clean Power When Haryana Needs It Most As temperatures soar across North India in the summer months ahead, electricity demand in Haryana is expected to touch record highs. By commissioning its FDRE project ahead of schedule, Juniper Green Energy is directly addressing this critical need delivering firm, renewable power that is both clean and dependable. The SJVN FDRE Tender Juniper Green Energy's FDRE project was awarded under a landmark tender floated by SJVN Limited under its SJVN FDRE Scheme, attracting India's leading renewable energy developers in a competitive reverse auction process. Juniper signed a 200 MW Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with SJVN, which has in turn executed a back-to-back Power Sale Agreement (PSA) with Haryana Power Purchase Centre (HPPC), ensuring firm, clean renewable power to the state of Haryana. Of all the developers who successfully bid under this tender, Juniper Green Energy is the FIRST to begin commissioning and supply power. FDRE: The Future of Indias Energy Transformation The transformative impact of FDRE on India's energy sector is multi-dimensional enabling distribution companies to procure clean power that truly mirrors their demand patterns, while driving large-scale investment in battery storage and accelerating India's domestic storage ecosystem. Since the Ministry of Power issued FDRE guidelines in 2023, over 10 tenders aggregating more than 14 GW of FDRE capacity have been launched by central and state agencies including SJVN, NHPC, SECI and NTPC, with approximately 10 GW already under construction representing one of the fastest-growing segments in India's utility-scale renewable energy market. For Juniper Green Energy, FDRE represents a core pillar of its long-term strategy. The company is at the forefront of India's transition to firm and dispatchable renewable energy, actively shaping the market through advanced integration of solar, wind, and energy storage, and by leading early execution under national FDRE programs. As new tender cycles emerge across central and state agencies, Juniper is well-positioned to continue leading from the front developing and commissioning large-scale FDRE projects, delivering reliable clean power, and setting new benchmarks in execution, innovation, and grid-ready renewable solutions in India. About Juniper Green Energy Juniper Green Energy is an independent renewable energy power producer in India, focused on the development, construction and operations of utility-scale solar, wind, and hybrid renewable energy projects. It is headquartered in Delhi NCR since October 2018; the company has grown its operational capacity to approximately 1.66 GWp (as of Jan 14 th , 2026).
