Heinrich Klaasen Praises Ishan Kishans Captaincy as SRH Eye Momentum in IPL 2026
Sunrisers Hyderabad big-hitting batter Heinrich Klaasen has lavished praise on skipper Ishan Kishan, calling him a superb captain and adding the way the side responds to the young wicketkeeper-batter has been just phenomenal, apart from his calmness in decision making and willingness to lean on experienced players in the set-up. Kishan was named as SRHs interim captain due to regular skipper Pat Cummins being unavailable for the initial part owing to his recovery from a lumbar stress issue. Under him, SRH have won one match while losing two games and are at fifth place on the points table. Look, I think he's been superb so far. He's a guy who does ask for advice. Like I said, we've got a lot of experience in the change room. So he leans on that as well. But his decision-making, the way he changes the bowlers, the way the team listens to him is just phenomenal so far. So like I said, we're in superb hands, and he's luckily not an arrogant guy at all, which makes it a lot easier. He's a really enjoyable captain to play under. So there's a lot of jokes in between to make it not so serious, because I think this environment can really be a tough environment to play under. I think he's been superb, and he had some success in the domestic scene as well. I think his domestic team won a competition (Jharkhand won Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy under his captaincy). So there's a lot of experience in that aspect. But so far, I really do enjoy his captaincy, and he's been incredible so far, said Klaasen, while replying to a query from IANS in the JioStar Press Room ahead of IPL 2026 Rivalry Week. Despite SRH losing two games this season, Klaasen said his own form 145 runs in three games, including two half-centuries - have given him personal satisfaction, particularly given his limited game time after retiring from international cricket and playing only franchise T20 leagues. Unfortunately, we've lost two games. But on a personal note, it's been a good start, especially because one of my biggest concerns is not playing as much cricket as I used to. Also, it's to see if I can still keep up with the standard that I set myself with. So, pretty good start for me, and hopefully this form will continue, he said. After playing against Punjab Kings in New Chandigarh, 2016 IPL champions SRH will play three games on the trot at their home venue against Rajasthan Royals, Chennai Super Kings and Delhi Capitals. The clash against CSK, the five-time champions who are yet to get off the mark in the points table, will be of huge interest and Klaasen acknowledged the fixture carries added significance. Look, it's always fun playing against them, and knowing that our owners are also coming from Chennai, they do put an emphasis on that we need to win over them or beat them. So there will always be added pressure on that game, but it's still a good game. All the teams that you have to play in the IPL, you have to be at your best and put your best performance in the game. So hopefully we can get that little bit of momentum going into the next game and then face Chennai back home. The wicket hopefully will be a little bit better, and then if we can get one over them going into their home ground, I think we should be in a good position to take them down this season, he elaborated. Klaasen also talked about the tactical challenge of facing spinners from opposition teams who have clearly studied his game closely. The boundaries are not the biggest in the world. We're used to some big boundaries as well. But the wickets are fantastic. So, it's a nice place to come back in. But it's still a big challenge. I know they're coming for me and they know I'm coming for them. I see this season they've got a couple of game plans. So, I need to get back on to doing some good homework against them and finding new ways of scoring against them, he said. On the toughest spinner hes faced in his IPL career, Klaasen named senior leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal without any hesitation. It's an easy answer Yuzi Chahal. We've come a long way. We've had some great battles over the last couple of years, especially in my career. He's a quality bowler, a very clever bowler. I think we're about 50-50 on winning those battles. He's a good mate of mine as well, so it makes it even better just to fight against him on the pitch, he said. The hard-hitting batter signed off by calling the IPL the pinnacle competition in franchise T20 cricket. It's by far the toughest franchise cricket competition that there is. I feel sometimes it's tougher than international cricket. It also depends on who you play. But the standard of cricket and obviously the conditions play a big part of it. Every year you just see a new Indian player coming out that you never know about, and you just keep on producing the goods. So the talent that they've got, it just sets the standard so high. The hard-hitting batter signed off by calling the IPL the pinnacle competition in franchise T20 cricket. It's by far the toughest franchise cricket competition that there is.

You Need Two Players To Replace Hardik, He's A Perfect All-rounder: Kumble
Indian Premier League: Former India captain Anil Kumble stressed Hardik Pandyas irreplaceable value ahead of Mumbai Indians Indian Premier League (IPL) clash against Rajasthan Royals, stating that his absence could disrupt MIs team balance and the team would require two players to fill in his shoes. Pandya, who was unable to play in Mumbais last away game against Delhi Capitals because of illness, returned to training in Guwahati on Sunday. With Pandya out, Suryakumar Yadav took charge of the team, which underwent several changes. These included adding Deepak Chahar and Corbin Bosch to the XI, while Trent Boult was sidelined to keep the overseas player balance. Kumble underlined just how crucial Pandya is to the side, placing him alongside Jasprit Bumrah as one of the two players Mumbai can least afford to lose. I think Mumbai Indians, the two players you don't want to be missing out in the playing XI, one is of course just with Bumrah and the other is Hardik Pandya. Because Hardik Pandya, you need two players to replace him. We saw that balance sort of getting a bit upset in the last game, Kumble said in a video shared by Star Sports on X. He further elaborated on Pandyas multidimensional impact, pointing out that his contribution goes far beyond just runs with the bat, saying, So hopefully for Mumbai Indians, Hardik will play. If he plays, it's not just the batting, it's also the way he bats. The way he bats situations and his four overs. With the new ball, he's able to bowl. He comes and bowls in the death as well. So he's a perfect all-rounder. Kumble emphasised that players of Pandyas calibre are rare in modern cricket, highlighting his consistency across formats and situations.

IPL 2026: Top Order In Focus As DC Eye Hat-trick Of Victories Over Winless GT (Preview)
Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy: Delhi Capitals will hope their misfiring top order finally fires as they chase their third straight win of IPL 2026 against a winless Gujarat Titans at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Wednesday. GT leads the head-to-head record 4-3 and have won two out of three matches in New Delhi, including chasing down 200 last year. DC have been clinical in both wins - chasing targets with 17 and 11 balls to spare. But those margins have papered over a persistent crack at the top. KL Rahul, Pathum Nissanka and Nitish Rana have averaged a combined 10.2, leaving the heavy lifting to a middle order that has, so far, answered every call. Against a GT bowling attack desperate to find rhythm, DC's top three cannot afford another meltdown. Rahul has been dismissed in the first over in both outings this season, though memories of his magnificent 112 against GT at this venue last year should help him negotiate the new ball more confidently. Nissanka showed promise with 44 against MI, while Rana needs to break free from his modest returns. Amid the top order's struggles, Sameer Rizvi has been DC's standout performer, single-handedly changing the complexion of both chases via 90 against MI and an unbeaten 70 against Lucknow Super Giants. What makes him particularly dangerous is his ability to shift gears - against LSG he made 12 runs from his first 15 balls before exploding to hit 58 runs off the next 32 deliveries. Against MI, Rizvi was at nine runs from 15 balls before blasting 81 runs off his next 36 deliveries. He leads the tournaments six-hitting charts with 11 maximums and strikes at 207 against spin. His duel with Rashid Khan, whos shown glimpses of returning to his best, will be one of the match's key subplots. DC's bowling has been equally disciplined. Pacers have set the tone in the powerplay before spinners applied the squeeze in middle overs, while Lungi Ngidi and T Natarajan have been effective at the back end with slower ball variations. GT arrive on the back of consecutive defeats and remain heavily reliant on their top three - captain Shubman Gill, B Sai Sudharsan and Jos Buttler. That dependence is stark: since IPL 2025, GT have won eight of 12 matches when one of the top-order bats beyond 15 overs, but just one of five when all three fall early. Gill's availability is uncertain after he missed the last game with a muscle spasm, increasing the load on Sudharsan and Buttler. Sudharsan, the tournament's leading run-scorer since 2025, has thrived at this venue with scores of 108 not out, 65 and 62 not out. Buttler has found starts but not converted into a big score and his vulnerability against left-arm spin sets up a telling face-off with DC skipper Axar Patel. GT's middle order of Glenn Phillips, Washington Sundar, Shahrukh Khan and Rahul Tewatia will need to step up with a big performance if the top three fall early. GT's bowling has its own concerns. They conceded 69 runs in the powerplay against Rajasthan Royals, and they cannot afford a repeat against a DC top-order, despite their frailties, has the firepower to punish wayward bowling. Mohammed Siraj has managed just one wicket this season and needs to rediscover his sharpness alongside Kagiso Rabada. Prasidh Krishna, IPL 2025's leading wicket-taker, has carried his form forward with four wickets already. Young pacer Ashok Sharma has been expensive but brings genuine variety, having clocked the fastest delivery in IPL 2026 so far. The decision to not use Washington Sundar's off-spin against RR puzzled observers. Washington, capable of bowling with the new ball, has bowled just 19 overs since IPL 2024 - picking four wickets at 11.1 per over - and his underuse remains an unexplained puzzle. Left-arm spinner R Sai Kishore is an option, though a poor Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy campaign doesn't strengthen his case. Chasing teams have won six of seven T20s at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in 2026, making the toss potentially significant, with a yellow alert for rain adding another variable. For DC, the objective is clear - get the top order firing, and complete a hat-trick of wins by outclassing GT, whose margins for making errors are running thin.

Noida Expressway becoming NCR's New Luxury Belt
For years, luxury living in NCR has been closely tied to familiar addresses; Golf Course Road and select pockets of South Delhi carried an unquestioned premium. What is unfolding now along the NoidaGreater Noida Expressway, however, feels less like an extension of that legacy and more like a realignment. The idea of luxury is no longer anchored to a postcode; it is increasingly shaped by infrastructure, accessibility, and future readiness. Luxury housing drives the bulk of residential sales across Indias top cities as the market's center of gravity shifts toward premium living The shift is being anchored by something far more enduring than sentimentinfrastructure. The recently inaugurated Noida International Airport has, in many ways, reset how the corridor is perceived, lending it both global relevance and long-term visibility. This is complemented by the ease of movement along the NoidaGreater Noida Expressway, offering seamless access into Delhi while strengthening regional connectivity across emerging nodes. What lends depth to this transformation is the quiet strengthening of an economic ecosystem that can sustain it. The steady expansion of IT and ITeS hubs, alongside a growing presence of corporate campuses along the NoidaGreater Noida Expressway, has created a well-defined employment spine. According to the Anarock report, average residential prices in Noida stood at approximately Rs 4,795 per sq. ft. in 2020. By Q1 2025, that figure had risen to Rs 9,200 per sq. ft, a growth of nearly 92%. Greater Noida performed even stronger at 98%, outpacing the broader NCR average of 81%. But more telling is the profile of the buyer this ecosystem is attracting: a younger, globally exposed professional cohort from technology, startups, and consulting. This is not legacy wealth repositioning itself; it is new wealth making conscious choices, prioritising environments that reflect how they live and work today. Within this larger narrative, certain micro-markets are beginning to define the character of the corridor more distinctly. Noida Sector 150, in particular, has emerged as a lifestyle anchor, marked by its low-density planning, expansive green cover, and a clear preference for larger, more thoughtfully designed residences. It offers a sense of openness that is increasingly difficult to find in older urban clusters. Around it, sectors such as 128 and 137 are steadily evolving as natural extensions of this luxury spine, adding depth and continuity to the belt. Together, these micro-markets are not just participating in the corridors growth; they are shaping what luxury along the expressway is beginning to stand for. Prateek Group s Prateek Canary in Sector 150 stands out as a reflection of how demand itself is evolving towards more low-density design-led homes, larger configurations, and amenities that go beyond the expected. Importantly, this is not supply trying to create aspiration; it is supply responding to a buyer who already knows what they want. Investors, too, are engaging with a longer horizon, viewing the expressway as a value corridor in the making rather than a quick-turn opportunity. In many ways, the buyer here is not upgrading within the same geography; they are upgrading their definition of living. Amit Modi, Director, County Group, says, The Noida Expressway belt today is seeing a very different kind of luxury buyer: one who is globally exposed yet deeply pragmatic. For many HNIs and NRIs, the decision is no longer driven by legacy pin codes, but by future potential and quality of life. What this corridor offers is scale, openness, and a level of planning that older markets simply cannot replicate anymore. We are seeing buyers who are comfortable entering early because they recognise the long-term value of infrastructure-led growth. In many ways, this is less about shifting locations and more about aligning with where the next decade of NCRs luxury housing story will unfold. Salil Kumar, Director-Marketing and Business Management, CRC Group, adds, What we are witnessing along the Noida Expressway belt is not a short-term demand cycle, but a direct outcome of sustained infrastructure investment. The recently inaugurated Noida International Airport has played a defining role in reshaping buyer perception; it has effectively put this corridor on a global map. Alongside this, improved connectivity and planned urban development have created the right ecosystem for luxury housing to thrive. Buyers today is far more informed; they are tracking infrastructure timelines and making decisions accordingly. This is why the demand here feels measured and confident, backed by visibility, not speculation. Thus, what is unfolding is a redefinition of where and how luxury chooses to exist within NCR. As infrastructure deepens and the ecosystem matures, the Noida Expressway is beginning to influence what the next chapter of luxury living in NCR will look like.
