IPL 2026: Injured Rohit Progressing Well, Call On Playing Against CSK On Match Day, Says Jayawardene
Injured Rohit Sharma: Mumbai Indians head coach Mahela Jayawardene said injured opener Rohit Sharma is making steady progress from a hamstring injury, adding that the franchises medical team will decide on his inclusion for Saturdays clash against Chennai Super Kings at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Rohit, who has featured in only four matches this season, batted at the nets in Chennai on Friday after missing the last four games due to a hamstring injury. Its progressed well. Hes working really hard to get back at it. For us, with the medical team, its on a daily basis. We see how he feels, how he pulls up the next day. So well make a decision. Well see him practising today as well. So lets see how he feels tomorrow and what the medical team will tell us, Jayawardene said in the pre-match press conference. Mumbai Indians campaign hasnt been a rip-roaring one, with just two wins from eight matches, leaving the five-time champions ninth on the points table. Every game from here is effectively a must-win for MI to stay in contention for the playoffs. Its not the time for us to experiment. Weve had issues with our injuries, and the availability of players and all that. Weve already played, I think, 20 players in the season. So weve not done that for many years. Our maximum has been 16, even with the impact, where weve had 16 or 17 was our maximum. So due to those circumstances, weve gone deeper into the bench. These are quality players as well, especially our foreigners, who have been good quality options. So we kept on changing combinations to suit that as well. But for us, its about trusting that process of correcting and playing good cricket, elaborated Jayawardene. Despite posting big totals, MI have failed to close out games with the ball, with Jayawardene pointing out that inconsistency has been their biggest issue. I think its just that we havent been consistent enough in phases where we must be competitive in those phases, and weve lost our way. So thats something that we keep saying, lets get this done.. Sometimes you get that done, and then theres some other phase that fails us. So its a catch-22 for everyone, and you just keep fighting and trusting the processes, skill, and players who've given us success, and then keep fighting. I mean, thats what we need to do, and thats what we will do, he said. On Suryakumar Yadavs poor form, who has amassed 162 runs in eight matches, Jayawardene said the right-hander is doing everything he can to rediscover his scoring ways. We've had this conversation. Like, if you look at him batting in the middle, there are two things. Practice, he's batting as well as anybody. I'm sure he was like that. Even when you go into the matches as well, he's hitting the ball well. But the way he's gotten off a few times, it's unfortunate. Like, he hits a shot, gets caught in the boundary line. A couple of times, okay, he had some good balls that came his way, got out. On Suryakumar Yadavs poor form, who has amassed 162 runs in eight matches, Jayawardene said the right-hander is doing everything he can to rediscover his scoring ways. We've had this conversation.

Also Read: Live Cricket Score How he sees, how he plays, we keep encouraging him. Sometimes, I mean, if you look at Surya for us, he had three to four brilliant years, and not just last year. So, sometimes people are human. They will have a little run that doesn't go his way. But he knows that, and he'll come up with a smile and play the same way he knows how to play, he concluded.

Chennai Super Kings: Chennai Super Kings batting coach Michael Hussey said former skipper MS Dhonis recovery from a calf injury has been progressing well and he will be seen back in action soon, while adding that the whole of Chennai is waiting for him to play in IPL 2026. Dhoni, 42, has been sidelined for three weeks due to the calf injury sustained ahead of the season and in his recovery, a lot of work has been put in on his speed while running between the wickets. Hopefully hell be back as soon as possible. I dont know if its tomorrow or its maybe the next match after that, but hes progressing really well. I know hes been upping his running speeds and that was probably the sticking point. I think were very confident from a skill perspective with his batting and his wicketkeeping. But it was just making sure that he could maintain good running power, particularly towards the back end of an inning where hes going to have to scan for those ones and twos. So as soon as hes got the confidence in his calf, then Im sure hell give it the tick to ready to go, Hussey said in the pre-match press conference, ahead of their clash against Mumbai Indians at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on Saturday. The final decision to play, Hussey stressed, rests with Dhoni himself. Once he feels confident in his calf, Im sure hell give the signal that hes ready to go. At the moment, were guided by him. Were waiting. I think all of Chennai is waiting.

Some IPL teams do leave their players in the hotel, as rules allow for only 18-20 players to be present in the dressing room. Hes such a team-orientated guy, MS Dhoni. He always wants whats best for the team and he was worried that if he came, thered be a bit too much of a distraction. Obviously, the cameras would be on him a lot. The crowd would be cheering for him and things like that.

Selection Dilemmas Loom As India Set To Name Womens T20 WC Squad On Saturday
Inter Zonal Multi Day Trophy: Selection dilemmas will loom large as India prepares to unveil its squad for the 2026 Womens T20 World Cup at the BCCI HQ in Mumbai on Saturday evening The tenth edition of the mega event in the shortest format will be played in England from June 12 to July 5, where India will aim to win its first title and the squad for it will be announced in a press conference, after the selection committee is done with its meeting. Expectations from the Harmanpreet Kaur-led side will be high, especially after they won the 2025 Womens ODI World Cup on home soil. Though India ended a long wait for a global title in senior womens cricket, its T20I record still remains mixed. India swept Sri Lanka 5-0 at home in December last year, and even defeated England in their backyard. They went on to edge Australia 2-1 away, but stumbled to a 4-1 defeat in South Africa last month. That trip to South Africa saw the team management rotate the players heavily, rest vice-captain Smriti Mandhana and tested many players, though issues in bowling still remain a cause of concern. While a majority of the Indian squad is sorted, the Amita Sharma-led selection panel needs to decide on a couple of slots to complete the 15 member squad look. Batting all-rounder Anushka Sharma and left-arm spinner Vaishnavi Sharma were handed debut caps and fared decently, while big-hitting finisher Bharti Fulmali earned a recall after being out of the set-up for a long time. It would be interesting to see whether those experiments translate into T20 World Cup spots for the trio, especially with hosts England picking three left-arm spinners for the 12-team competition. Saturdays meeting will extend beyond the T20 World Cup squad selection too. Teams for a three-game T20I series against England, set to be held before the World Cup and the one-off Test, to be played at Lords from July 10-13, will be named as well. Theres also the matter of India A squads to be picked for three 50-over games and as many T20 matches against England A. Should India opt for an outandout pace option for the World Cup, Nandni Sharma, who impressed for Delhi Capitals in WPL 2026, could be drafted in. The selection of Nandni and Kashvee Gautam, who debuted in T20Is on tour of South Africa, will be interesting to see, particularly with Amanjot Kaur likely to be sidelined due to a back injury. Selectors may expand the squad to 17 or 18 for the T20I series against England, to be played from May 8 to June 2 and may open the door for Vaishnavi to be drafted in. But with competition being fierce, Radha Yadav, Sneh Rana and G Kamalini risk missing out on featuring in the World Cup. Radhas case is a curious one she took six wickets in India securing a T20I series win in England last year, and hasnt played in the format since then. Radha had a strong time in RCB winning WPL 2026 - scoring 114 runs in 9 matches, including a knock of 66, though she picked only two wickets. In captaining India A to the Womens Asia Cup Rising Stars title in Bangkok, Radha made 75 runs with the bat, and picked 10 wickets at five runs per over. In West Zone becoming runners-up in the Senior Womens Inter Zonal Multi Day Trophy, Radha made 224 runs in four innings, with a highest score of 108 and took 12 wickets with the ball to be at second place in both batting and bowling charts. Yastika Bhatia adds another intriguing layer - the left-handed wicketkeeper-batter has resumed training after undergoing an ACL surgery due to a knee injury suffered in the ODI World Cup preparatory camp in Visakhapatnam last year. In West Zone becoming runners-up in the Senior Womens Inter Zonal Multi Day Trophy, Radha made 224 runs in four innings, with a highest score of 108 and took 12 wickets with the ball to be at second place in both batting and bowling charts. Also Read: Live Cricket Score Harleen Deol and Pratika Rawal are among those tipped to travel with India A squad, and use the tour to adapt to English conditions in advance ahead of the oneoff Test. But with the T20 World Cup looming, the choices made on Saturday evening at the BCCI HQ in Mumbai will hugely shape Indias pursuit of winning their first-ever title in the shortest format.
