IPL 2026: Toss Was Crucial, MI Were 10-15 Runs Short With The Bat, Says Deepak Chahar
Indian Premier League: Mumbai Indians (MI) pacer Deepak Chahar admitted the toss played a decisive role after suffering a six-wicket loss to Delhi Capitals (DC) in IPL 2026, saying the side ended up 10-15 runs short with the bat on a slow black soil pitch which later became better to bat under lights at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi. Suryakumar Yadav captained MI in place of an unwell Hardik Pandya and top-scored with 51 off 36 balls. But barring him, most of the other MI struggled to play their shots as they posted 162/6. Chahar himself found help from the pitch in power-play and even took out KL Rahul, but Sameer Rizvis 90 took DC over the line with 11 balls to spare. I think the pitch was really slow and the toss was crucial. I think there was a bit of moisture there. They were slow to start, and you could feel the moisture. The toss was very crucial at that time, and thats why we were 10-15 runs short, Chahar said in the post-match press conference. He explained how conditions improved for batting in the second innings. The pitch got a bit better. When the pitch is dry, it's more difficult to bat in the second innings. When the pitch has moisture, it becomes better to bat in the second innings I think it had a bit of moisture, and when it was sunny, and there was a bit of rolling at innings break, it got better to bat on. On skipper Hardik Pandyas absence, Chahar said: I think he (Hardik Pandya) was sick. That's why he couldn't play. Probably and hopefully, he'll play in the next game (against Rajasthan Royals in Guwahati on Tuesday). Chahar credited Sameer Rizvis knock for tilting the contest. Yes, we gave it a good shot because defending 160 in an afternoon game is really difficult. Rizvi played really well. If we had got him out early around the ten-over phase, the match would have been very interesting. He elaborated on the challenge of defending a modest total. In T20, the wicket-taking deliveries in any format are risk-taking deliveries But when you're defending 160, you can't bowl such a wicket-taking ball. Chahar credited Sameer Rizvis knock for tilting the contest. Yes, we gave it a good shot because defending 160 in an afternoon game is really difficult. Rizvi played really well. If we had got him out early around the ten-over phase, the match would have been very interesting. Also Read: Live Cricket Score Chahar maintained MI executed their strategies, but were undone by a few overs, where they conceded big runs. So we executed most of the plans. I think we played some good shots. When the score is 160, and if one or two big overs come in, the other team moves forward. Article Source: IANS
IPL 2026: MI Were 15-20 Runs Short From A Batting Point Of View, Admits Suryakumar Yadav
Indian Premier League: Mumbai Indians (MI) stand-in skipper Suryakumar Yadav conceded his side were 15-20 runs short with the bat, which led to them losing to Delhi Capitals (DC) by six wickets at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Saturday. On a slow pitch where shot-making was tough, Suryakumar top-scored with 51 as MI made 162/6. But DC chased down the target as the pitch got better to bat under lights, with Sameer Rizvi making a swashbuckling 90. I think it was a decent wicket. We expected it to be a little on the slower side, but still, from a batting point of view, we were a little short, 15-20 runs, but I don't want to take any credit away from their bowlers, and also they batted really well in the second innings, Suryakumar said after the game ended. On Rizvis second consecutive fifty of the competition, Suryakumar said, Absolutely, I mean, at 7 for 2, someone coming in like that and batting the way he batted, I think a lot of credit goes to him. He never let us come into the game. Suryakumar felt the pitch remained largely the same across both innings but credited the opposition for reading the conditions better. I think it was quite similar. It didn't change too much, but the way they batted, I think they batted very beautifully. They understood the conditions really well in the second innings and batted beautifully, he said. On Rizvis second consecutive fifty of the competition, Suryakumar said, Absolutely, I mean, at 7 for 2, someone coming in like that and batting the way he batted, I think a lot of credit goes to him. He never let us come into the game. Also Read: Live Cricket Score Despite the setback, the skipper remained optimistic, as MI now travel to Guwahati to take on the Rajasthan Royals on Tuesday. There'll be days like this when you try, and it won't work, but we will go back to the drawing board, work hard, and come back in the next game, he said. Article Source: IANS

IPL 2026: Rashid Leads GT In Gills Absence, Kushagra Earns Debut As RR Opt To Bat
Indian Premier League: Rashid Khan will be leading the Gujarat Titans in the absence of regular skipper Shubman Gill, who has been rested owing to a muscle spasm, as the Rajasthan Royals won the toss and elected to bat in the ninth match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Saturday. GT will be desperate to open their account this season after falling just short in their opening outing against the Punjab Kings. Despite putting up a respectable 162/6 with the bat, they were unable to defend it, as the bowlers failed to hold their nerves in the closing stages, allowing Punjab to chase down the target with five deliveries to spare. RR, meanwhile, come into the contest brimming with confidence following a commanding victory over Chennai Super Kings in Guwahati. Delivering a complete performance, they bundled out CSK for just 127 before wrapping up the chase with ease inside 13 overs. Jofra Archer and Nandre Burger led the charge with the ball, while young Vaibhav Suryavanshi caught the eye with an explosive fifty. Looking at past encounters, GT have generally enjoyed the upper hand in this rivalry, winning six of the eight matches played between the two teams. RR have managed two victories, including their most recent meeting in April 2025. Notably, the Titans also came out on top when the two sides first faced off in April 2022, making this an interesting contest to watch. Winning the toss, RR skipper Riyan Parag said, We are going to be batting first. We have to assess and adapt to different conditions. Hopefully, we will put up a good score around 210 and defend it later on. We want to be a team that can play in all conditions. I want it to be a team that is flexible. We don't want to play one brand of cricket. We don't want to be a team that only scores or bowls for 200 runs or 250 runs. I think, like I said, I want us to assess the pitch, play through all conditions that the IPL offers to us, and be good at it. So I think that's the message. Two changes. Tushar Deshpande comes in for Brijesh, and Shubham Dubey comes in for Bishnoi. Meanwhile, GTs stand-in captain Rashid Khan said, We wanted to bowl first as well. Fresh wicket and I feel like there will be some help for the bowlers initially, but we are quite happy with the toss so far. Gill has got a bit of a muscle spasm, hopefully he will be back soon. KK (Kumar Kushagra) is playing his first game and look forward to seeing him play. I think we played good cricket (in the last game). I feel that in the last game as well, it was a very close game, but there were some areas we need to improve our bowling, and also with the batting. And we spoke a lot about that in the meetings, and we just need to bring our A-game here and give our 100%. So I feel like we did really well in the last game as well, but we take the positive things from that and we keep improving our skills in our game.

IPL 2026: Two Innings Don't Define An Area Of Concern, CSK Head Coach Fleming Backs Samson
Chennai Super Kings: There may have been some doubts about Sanju Samson's start with the Chennai Super Kings (CSK), but head coach Stephen Fleming is sure that the star batter will soon get back into the swing of things. Samson's form has come under fire after he scored 6 and 7 in his first two games of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026. This is especially true after his high-profile move from the Rajasthan Royals and his recent success in India's T20 World Cup win. Fleming, on the other hand, dismissed the worries and supported the experienced batter's ability to bounce back strongly. He is not going to score every time. It's T20 cricket and he just nicked one today. But, he is in good form. He is training well. And when he gets going, he is often a match-winner. So, two innings don't define an area of concern, Fleming said after CSKs loss to Punjab Kings. Samson's first two dismissals, first to Nandre Burger in Guwahati and then to Xavier Bartlett at Chepauk, show that he had a rough start with only 13 runs in two innings. But there isn't much panic in the CSK camp because the team trusts his ability to turn things around after slow starts. Samson has gotten a lot of attention, but CSK's biggest worry is their bowling. Even though they scored a strong 209/5, they couldn't protect the total after Punjab Kings chased it down easily, thanks to Priyansh Arya's explosive start and Shreyas Iyer's calm half-century. Fleming said that the team could have done better with the ball, but when asked about their auction strategy, especially why they didn't spend a lot of money on experienced pacers, he was careful not to say too much. Im trying to think back to the auction process around all those names that you talked about were mentioned. I dont, I cant remember the dynamics. There was a large list of bowlers that we looked at and missed out on that might have been out of form at the time but are in form now. Trust me, we went over everything. I cant remember those dynamics, he said. CSKs squad overhaul has also raised questions about balance, particularly the lack of specialist finishers. But Fleming believes the modern T20 game has evolved beyond traditional roles. Im trying to think back to the auction process around all those names that you talked about were mentioned. I dont, I cant remember the dynamics. There was a large list of bowlers that we looked at and missed out on that might have been out of form at the time but are in form now.

So you actually have to have players all the way through that are going to be aggressive and thats certainly the team that weve got. Keep in mind weve got (Dewald) Brevis on the sideline and youve got one of the best finishers in the MS (Dhoni) and theres some power there but Brevis is in the middle. Im really content with the pace that we can go, Fleming added. Article Source: IANS

IPL 2026: Young CSK Batters Will Improve With More Game Time, Says Gaikwad
Young Chennai Super Kings: Chennai Super Kings captain (CSK) Ruturaj Gaikwad backed his young batting line-up to improve as the season progresses after his side faltered against Rajasthan Royals in their opening match of the 2026 IPL, adding that they will see them become better with more game time. CSK were bowled out for 127 by Rajasthan Royals in Guwahati, as they slumped to an eight-wicket loss. The wicket was slightly tougher, and we had to bat first, put up a score, and they had two really good new-ball bowlers. So that really put us on the back foot. In T20 games, we are not really used to playing on such pitches. So maybe we dont actually have that experience where players will adapt and play accordingly. But its a new group, a new batch, so you know they will learn slowly. The more games they get, they will get better and better, said Gaikwad in the pre-match press conference. Gaikwad also felt conditions at Chepauk could vary depending on the weather, with dew and moisture likely to affect the pitch at night, especially after pitches during the 2026 Mens T20 World Cup turned out to be batting-friendly. Regarding pitches, a lot depends here on the weather. And whatever World Cup games happened, they happened in February. So not much of dew. With the best weather and best conditions, usually the Chennai wicket plays really well. But, at night, sometimes, if there is excessive dew and a bit more moisture in the wicket, it tends to change a bit, especially the second half of the innings. So, not really sure about how it will go this year. We have to adapt accordingly and take the experience. We have seven games, and hopefully, whatever the pitch, we will try to make use of however much ever we can, he said. If the pitch is indeed on the flatter side, Gaikwad stated that young batter Kartik Sharma, who scored 18 from 15 balls on his IPL debut, can come good. Well, really confident with what skill set we have. Kartik is someone who has a really good six-hitting ability. I have not seen many right-handers who have that six-hitting ability. So he is one of the greatest additions to our squad. But, at night, sometimes, if there is excessive dew and a bit more moisture in the wicket, it tends to change a bit, especially the second half of the innings. So, not really sure about how it will go this year. We have to adapt accordingly and take the experience. We have seven games, and hopefully, whatever the pitch, we will try to make use of however much ever we can, he said. Also Read: Live Cricket Score In IPL, there is a lot of pressure from families, media, team members, everyone. So, to cope with that and to just get into that IPL performance mode, it takes time. It is about giving them time. When this batting lineup starts clicking, I think that is the one to look up, he concluded. Article Source: IANS
