IPL 2026: David Fined 50% Match Fee, To Miss 2027 Season Opener After Collecting Two Demerit Points

Indian Premier League: Royal Challengers Bengaluru's (RCB) big-hitting batter Tim David has been fined 50 per cent of his match fee and will miss the opening game of the 2027 Indian Premier League (IPL) season after collecting two demerit points for a Level 1 Code of Conduct breach during the five-wicket win over Gujarat Titans in the 2026 final at the Narendra Modi Stadium. David, who hit 24 off 17 balls in the final, was found guilty of breaching Article 2.9 of the Code of Conduct, which relates to throwing a ball (or any other item of cricket equipment such as a water bottle) at or near a Player, Team Official, Umpire, Match Referee or any other third person in an inappropriate and/or dangerous manner during a Match. The incident occurred in the 10th over of the first innings when, following the fall of a wicket, David threw an ice bag aggressively in the direction of onfield umpire Nitin Menon. The Match Referee, former India pacer Javagal Srinath, imposed the sanction after David admitted to the offence and accepted the punishment. This was Davids third Level 1 offence of the season. He had earlier committed breaches in Match 20, for which he was docked one demerit point, and in Match 54, which resulted in two demerit points. With the latest sanction, David has now accumulated five demerit points in total. As per the IPLs Code of Conduct regulations, accumulation of five demerit points triggers a onematch suspension. Accordingly, David, who made 305 runs in 16 games this season, will miss RCBs opening fixture of the next IPL season or, if he represents another franchise in the first game of IPL 2027. RCB defeated Gujarat Titans by five wickets in the final to secure their second consecutive title, but Davids suspension means the franchise will begin their title defence next year without one of their experienced finishers. As per the IPLs Code of Conduct regulations, accumulation of five demerit points triggers a onematch suspension.

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi Sweeps IPL Awards -- But Is Too Young To Drive Prize

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi swept the end-of-season IPL awards and in doing so won an SUV -- but the 15-year-old cricket prodigy will have to wait three years to drive it.The Indian batting sensation plundered 776 runs at an average of 48.50 and a punishing strike-rate of 237.30 in 16 matches. On Sunday he was named most valuable player, despite his team Rajasthan Royals narrowly failing to reach the final, and he also scooped the Orange Cap for leading the batting charts. He was also named emerging player of the season, among other prizes. The boy wonder was gifted a car, a TATA Sierra SUV, which at top price comes in at 2.1 million rupees ($22,000). His total prize money was over $57,000. However, he won't be able to get behind the wheel in the near future because the minimum driving age in India is 18. It feels good, but I'm feeling a little pressure because I'm here for an interview, Sooryavanshi said on winning the awards. But yes, it's a proud moment, it feels great, and I'll try to do even better next season.

Virat Kohli Dubbed 'Heartbeat' Of IPL Champions In Coach Flower Tribute

Virat Kohli was hailed as the heartbeat of the Royal Challengers Bengaluru dressing room after his unbeaten 75 secured a second straight IPL championship. The 37-year-old Kohli was there at the end as Bengaluru chased 156 to beat Gujarat Titans by five wickets in Sunday's final in Ahmedabad. Dubbed the chase master, Kohli finished with a six and a total of 675 runs in the T20 tournament. Virat, I know you get a lot of attention and quite rightly, head coach Andy Flower said in a Royal Challengers Bengaluru video tribute released Monday. But I don't want to downplay that, because you are a heartbeat in this dressing room. Kohli got the team off to a flying start in a 62-run opening stand with Venkatesh Iyer and later anchored the chase. He hammered Gujarat pace bowler Kagiso Rabada for two fours and a six to set the tone for his team's domination at the 130,000-capacity Narendra Modi Stadium, which was packed with Kohli fans. He relishes these situations, he looks forward to these situations where he can show how good a player he is, former India captain Sunil Gavaskar told Sports Today. What kind of a temperament he has, the winning mindset that he has. IPL chairman Arun Dhumal said: Virat doesn't need any trophies. He is a trophy himself. Bengaluru and Kohli have been on a roll in the T20 tournament since winning their first IPL crown at the 18th attempt last year. Bengaluru finished top of the 10-team table after the league stage and hammered Gujarat in the first play-off for a direct entry into the final. A majority of the 90,000 crowd seemed to be wearing Kohli's number 18 shirt, with chants of Kohli, Kohli filling the air. I always say we don't have seven home games, we probably have 14, Kohli said after being named player of the match. Everywhere we go, we have fans cheering the team and really getting behind us. I mean, GT are probably the home side, but you see 90 percent of the guys are RCB fans. Their support is priceless. The team will not stage any public homecoming with the trophy on Monday. A victory parade for their inaugural title win a year ago resulted in a stampede and crush outside Bengaluru's M. Chinnaswamy Stadium that killed 11 people. Obviously, you feel bad -- you lost your fans after winning the game, Bengaluru captain Rajat Patidar said after this year's win.

IPL 2026: Were Very Lucky To Have Kohli In The RCB Dressing Room, Says Andy Flower

Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Royal Challengers Bengaluru head coach Andy Flower said the franchise is very lucky to have veteran batter Virat Kohli in the dressing room, hailing the former skippers hunger and drive as genuinely inspiring after RCB defended their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 crown with a fivewicket win over Gujarat Titans in the final at the Narendra Modi Stadium. Kohli smashed a majestic 42-ball 75 not out, laced with nine fours and three sixes, as RCB completed a chase of 156 to retain the title they won at the same venue in 2025. Kohli also reached his fifty in 25 balls the fastest hes reached the half-century mark in his history of playing the IPL. You asked about Virats hunger and how that affects him. When I was in the dressing room last night after the game, I mentioned it actually. His hunger and drive its genuinely inspiring. Even for older blokes like me, seeing someone as hungry and driven, as disciplined and as ambitious as he still is, its wonderful to witness. And were very lucky to have him in the dressing room. He sets certain standards, like standards of intensity in the field, for instance, that means that anyone falling below those is going to stand out like a sore thumb. So we dont need coaches driving intensity on standards in the field, for instance, because hes living it and doing it. And everyone else has to raise their games to get anywhere near it, Flower said in a virtual press conference on Monday. The former Zimbabwe captain, who coached England to the 2010 Mens T20 World Cup title win, added, He works hard at his game, but you can see that he loves it as well. He loves batting. He loves hitting a ball. He loves the feeling of the ball meeting the middle of the bat. I would imagine the craft and mastery that he feels when hes got a bat in his hands. Again, those standards are easy for people in our training sessions to see, and certainly it just helps everyone head in the right direction. RCB skipper Rajat Patidar also acknowledged Kohlis influence on his own leadership journey after being appointed the sides captain ahead of winning their first title in the 2025 season. Regarding Virat bhai, as I said in many press conferences and interviews, his presence makes a lot of difference. For me, it's great learning. Whenever Im around him on the field and off the field, I always notice him. I dont speak much, but I always notice him. But whenever I have some kind of doubts regarding the leadership role or taking any decision, I always go to Virat bhai. For me, its a great opportunity to learn from the best and the greats of cricket. So, their ideas, inputs, and experience are definitely helping me a lot to grow in my new leadership role, he said. Under Patidars captaincy, RCB have now won backtoback IPL titles and have shed their longstanding reputation as perennial underachievers. The Indore-based batter himself had a standout campaign, scoring 501 runs at a strike rate of 192.69, including a matchwinning 93 not out in Qualifier 1. It's not like I had to go in and target the bowlers from ball number one. No one in the team was doing that. It's important to back your instincts. We did a lot of hard work before the tournament with DK (Dinesh Karthik, batting coach-cum-mentor), Flower, and Mo Bobat (Director of Cricket) were also there. There was more clarity about my role. I was pretty clear that if I'm batting in the middle overs, I can maximise and I can take a risk. I like taking risks, so if I am playing in the middle overs phase, I like to maximise every bowler. If I feel I have to go after the attack on my second delivery, I back myself and go with full clarity, he added. Patidar also drew praise from Punjab Kings skipper Shreyas Iyer, who labelled him the most stylish performer of the season. Responding to the compliment, Patidar said, I have spent a lot of time with Shreyas. In my first season in Ranji, we played Mumbai, and at that time, he scored a lot of runs. There was more clarity about my role. I was pretty clear that if I'm batting in the middle overs, I can maximise and I can take a risk. I like taking risks, so if I am playing in the middle overs phase, I like to maximise every bowler. If I feel I have to go after the attack on my second delivery, I back myself and go with full clarity, he added. Also Read: Live Cricket Score Patidar also mentioned Rajasthan Royals 15yearold opener Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, who won the Orange Cap with 776 runs, as the standout performer of the season. Its pretty clear, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi. Hes so young, and the way hes dominated this tournament. He just didnt play; he dominated every top bowler. So the way he played his shots, hes amazing. Whenever I saw him on TV, it was just superb. I wish him luck. Article Source: IANS

GREMI City Campus at Million Minds Tech City Unveils Vision for India's First Dedicated Real Estate University

Ganesh Real Estate Management Institute (GREMI), Gujarat's first AICTE-approved institution exclusively focused on the real estate sector, today inaugurated its City Campus at Million Minds Tech City, Ahmedabad. Backed by an initial investment of Rs. 500 crore, GREMI will admit its Founding Cohort of 70 students from August 2026, marking the formal beginning of structured, degree-linked real estate education in India.   GREMI city campus unveiled at Million Minds Tech City   The launch of the campus marks a significant step in GREMI's journey to establish a formal, industry-aligned academic home for real estate education in India, supported by Ganesh Housing Limited and grounded in the recognition that balanced urban development is only possible when town planning is supported by structured education and modern thinking.   The inauguration, held alongside the Phase 1 launch of Million Minds Tech City, reflects the intentional integration of education, employment and innovation within the Ahmedabad–Gandhinagar growth corridor. GREMI's City Campus will serve as a live learning environment — connecting students directly with the built-environment industry — while its long-term vision of a 100-acre dedicated university campus, for which a Deemed University application has already been submitted to the UGC, positions India's real estate sector on the path to having its own world-class academic home. An application for GREMI to transform into a Deemed University under distinct category has already been submitted to the UGC.   The launch brought together a convergence that is rare in Indian education — a sector-specific institution, co-located within a live employment district, backed by committed long-term capital, and supported at the highest levels of government. Addressing the industry and education leaders Union Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation Shri Amit Shah, Chief Minister of Gujarat Shri Bhupendra Patel, reiterated the commitment of Central and State Governments towards quality housing, urban development, quality infrastructure and holistic approach to real estate development and management. The public unveiling of GREMI's long-term vision: a 100-acre integrated teaching, research and residential university campus in Ahmedabad, with initial investment of Rs 500 Crores marks the beginning of a world-class centre of excellence exclusively for the built-environment sector.   Speaking at the launch event, Hon'ble Union Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation, Shri Amit Shah, said, “Gujarat has already established itself as one of India’s strongest industrial growth engines, and now the state is moving decisively towards becoming a global hub for technology, innovation and high-skilled services. Projects like Million Minds Tech City will not only create world-class infrastructure and employment opportunities but will also position Ahmedabad alongside the country’s leading technology destinations. Equally important is the launch of GREMI City Campus, which reflects the need to build strong industry-linked talent and knowledge ecosystems that can support Gujarat’s next phase of growth in technology, real estate, infrastructure and innovation-led sectors.”   Commenting on the development, Mr. Shekhar Patel, MD & CEO, Ganesh Housing Limited and Chairman, Governing Council, GREMI said, “ India is urbanising at a scale and speed that has few parallels in history, and the expectations from that urban development are far more nuanced and future-focused than ever before. That scale demands a different kind of professional — one who understands not just how to construct, but how to plan, finance, govern and sustain the urban environments we are creating. GREMI exists to produce that professional. Our commitment to the Ganesh Foundation is a reflection of how seriously we take that responsibility — because the institutions we build today will determine the quality of the cities we live in tomorrow .”   Adding perspective on the institute’s vision, Dr. Anil Kashyap, Director General and CEO, GREMI, said, “ Our goal is not just to produce industry-ready talent, but to contribute to research, policy dialogue and innovation in the built environment discipline. ”   The main campus, once completed, is set to accommodate over 2,000 students in a fully integrated academic ecosystem offering postgraduate education and advanced professional learning across real estate development and finance, construction technology and project management, urban planning and infrastructure, housing and policy studies, sustainability and green development, smart cities and future urban systems, real estate law and governance, and technology integration in the built environment.   GREMI's flagship Postgraduate Certificate in Management (PGCM) in Real Estate Development and Management will continue to anchor its academic offerings, with the Founding Cohort of 2026 comprising approximately 70 students already admitted for the August 2026 start. GREMI’s ambition is to position real estate education as a credible and aspirational career choice for India’s next generation of professionals, while creating a rigorous foundation for research, innovation and policy engagement in the built environment.   GREMI is associated with Mahamati Skill and Education Foundation (MSEF), a not-for-profit organisation established under Section 8 of the Companies Act, 2013, envisioned by Mr. Shekhar Patel, Director of Ganesh Housing Limited and National President of CREDAI. MSEF operates independently and undertakes its initiatives through funding support received from associated entities and family trusts.   About Ganesh Real Estate Management Institute (GREMI) Ganesh Real Estate Management Institute (GREMI) has been established to build a structured education ecosystem for India’s real estate and built environment sector. Focused on real estate education, leadership development, and industry-oriented research, GREMI seeks to bridge the gap between academic understanding and the evolving needs of urban development. The institution has received approval from the All-India Council for Technical Education (AICTE), becoming Gujarat’s first AICTE-approved institution exclusively dedicated to the real estate sector. Established as part of the broader vision of Ganesh Housing Limited, GREMI is designed to create future-ready professionals with multidisciplinary capabilities across planning, finance, execution, governance and technology.   About Mahamati Skill and Education Foundation (MSEF) Mahamati Skill and Education Foundation is a not-for-profit organization headquartered in Ahmedabad, Gujarat.

Individual performances and match wins bring happiness, but winning a tournament is something truly special. Throughout my career, Ive always visualised and manifested success at the team level, and Ive been fortunate enough to be part of sides that have achieved that. To win a fifth IPL trophy in eleven years is incredibly satisfying, and Im grateful for the journey and the opportunities that have come my way, said Pandya on JioHotstar.

Kohli Knows How To Pace A Chase Right Through The Innings And Finish It Off: De Villiers

Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Royal Challengers Bengaluru batting stalwart AB de Villiers hailed Virat Kohlis matchwinning knock of 75 not out in the IPL 2026 final, saying the talismanic batter knows how to pace a chase right through the innings and finish it off, as the side clinched their second successive title with a fivewicket win over Gujarat Titans. At the Narendra Modi Stadium, Kohli smashed a majestic 42-ball 75 not out, laced with nine fours and three sixes, as RCB completed a chase of 156 to retain the title they won at the same venue in 2025. In a final, if you take him out of that chasing batting order, then everything looks a bit different. With Rashid Khan firing from one end, and some of the other GT bowlers also doing really well, he just brings that calmness. He knows how to pace a chase right through the innings and finish it off. And it's very fitting that he was there right at the end, scoring the winning runs. GT were a bit naughty in feeding him into his strengths. A lot of deliveries were on the legs in his first 20-30 runs. If you give one of the best players of all time a start like that, he's always going to punish you. Once he started flowing, it was just plain sailing, one-way traffic. To be there at the end and call those final moments was absolutely phenomenal, said de Villiers on JioHotstar.

Kohli Urges Young Cricketers To 'work Behind The Scenes' To Make An 'impact On The Field'

Royal Challengers Bengaluru: After helping Royal Challengers Bengaluru defend their IPL crown, veteran batter Virat Kohli reflected on the evolution of his batting, the demands of modern T20 cricket and the lessons he hopes the next generation of Indian cricketers can take from his journey as he urged the up-and-coming cricketers to read the game well and play according to the demands and situation. Kohli, who played a pivotal role in RCB's title-winning game on Sunday against the Gujarat Titans and finished the season with another impressive run-scoring effort, said the key to longevity is continuous improvement and adapting to the changing nature of the game. The fact that I continue to play and compete, I want to keep improving and find areas in my game where I can make a difference and help the team score. That's always been my focus, Kohli said in a video shared by IPL. Kohli turned his attention to young cricketers, stressing that success is not solely about power-hitting but about understanding match situations and developing multiple ways to contribute. It's about understanding situations in the game. The preparation has to be such that you can play in 3-4 different ways. If the pitch gets tough, you should be able to hit boundaries and not just sixes. Even if that's not possible, you should be able to rotate, strike and stay in the game, he said. According to Kohli, the foundation for those solutions is laid long before match day, and the former India captain expressed his desire to pass on those lessons whenever younger players seek his guidance. For that, you need to do the work behind the scenes when you're not competing. That's probably the process to go about things when you want to make an impact on the field. Hopefully, whoever comes to have a chat with me, I can convey the same message with clarity. Keep the standard of Indian cricket high, he mentioned. He believes versatility is what separates good players from great ones, as he said, I try to prepare a well-rounded game and try to implement that as best as I can in every situation that I play. That's the only thing I urge the youngsters to understand. Play according to the situation and the demands of the game. If you stay with the situation of the game, you're always going to be able to find solutions. The veteran batter acknowledged that T20 cricket has undergone significant changes in recent years, forcing even established players to reassess their methods. The game is changing pretty rapidly. Just an opportunity for me to look at areas where I can get better. The explosive side of the game was something that needs to be taken care of nowadays. While known more for timing and placement than brute power, Kohli explained how he has adapted without straying from his strengths and also pointed to a statistic that reinforces his value to the team. I'm not a guy who will hit 40-50 sixes in a season, but I can hit 70-80 fours. I really worked on that aspect of my game. I'm going to hit the shots I can hit more often and take the bowlers on. That's always been my goal to be as consistent and impactful as possible. Feels good to know that when I play longer in the game, our success rate is 100% for the last two seasons. That gives me clarity as well that if I back for long enough in the game, our chances of winning improve significantly. Of course, it's a great feeling, the 37-year-old said. Looking back at RCB's title defence, Kohli said the champions entered the final with complete confidence in their abilities after dominating the league stage. That belief, he said, was built on months of consistent performances. I'm not a guy who will hit 40-50 sixes in a season, but I can hit 70-80 fours. I really worked on that aspect of my game. I'm going to hit the shots I can hit more often and take the bowlers on. That's always been my goal to be as consistent and impactful as possible.

He Likes To Be A Star, Not A Superstar: DK Hails RCB Skipper Patidar's 'calming Influence'

After Royal Challengers Bengaluru: After Royal Challengers Bengaluru clinched their second successive IPL title with a fivewicket win over Gujarat Titans in the final at the Narendra Modi Stadium batting coach and mentor Dinesh Karthik praised skipper Rajat Patidars calmness, saying that bowlers tend to thrive when they have a captain like him leading the side. Patidar-led RCB finished at the top of the ten-team points table in the league stage and successfully defended their title by chasing down 156. Before Virat Kohlis unbeaten 75 took them over the line, seamers Josh Hazlewood, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Rasikh Salam Dar were precise in their execution of plans to rattle GT and keep them to 155/8. Rajat has been a huge calming influence in a dressing room that is high-octane and high testosterone. He keeps things very calm, and that's so important. The bowlers thrive when you have a calm captain; it definitely helps under pressure. I think he likes to be a star, not a superstar. There are plenty of guys in that team who are big names and get the job done in high-pressure situations. The only time Rajat is aggressive is when he's batting. Other than that, he brings a very calm atmosphere and is happy for a lot of the senior players to go front and centre, which I believe is a very important trait in a leader. He just sits back, allows things to get done, and does exactly what needs to be done in that moment, said Karthik on JioHotstar. Karthik was also in praise of the responsibility shown by senior players like Hazlewood, Bhuvneshwar and Kohli in making RCB only the third team after Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings to defend their IPL title. We have a lot of skill in the room. We're a very well-rounded team, both batting and bowling. We've tried to make sure most of the boxes are ticked in terms of the power we have and the skill we possess with the ball. It was great to see someone like Bhuvi bring his experience to the fore from game one right through to the end, he was always there for us. Hazlewood started in a certain way but finished strongly for us. Virat, under pressure and in a big chase, stood up yet again. That's why he's called the King. You can see youngsters playing a lot of different shots, but it was him who brought solidity to the chase. GT wanted one wicket. They knew that if they got Virat at any point, the game would be different for them. He withstood that pressure, and that tells you everything you need to know about him, he elaborated. Karthik signed off by underlining the importance of squad depth and quality backups for RCB to thrive as a winning unit. Ideally, I might not want another mega auction, but there's a lot of planning that goes into it. It's one thing to have a good starting XII, but you always know that in a tournament like this, there could be an injury, a player arriving late, or someone dealing with family issues, and you need to be prepared for all of that. You can see youngsters playing a lot of different shots, but it was him who brought solidity to the chase. GT wanted one wicket. They knew that if they got Virat at any point, the game would be different for them. He withstood that pressure, and that tells you everything you need to know about him, he elaborated. Also Read: Live Cricket Score Rasikh Salam didn't get a game for us last year, but this year, the way he has come in under pressure, constantly bowling tough overs and standing up to the challenge, has been impressive. He's got that character, and it emanates from the way we practise and the clarity Mo and Andy have given to a lot of the players. Article Source: IANS

IPL Final Shift Row: Shivakumar Says Karnataka Won't Lose Major Matches In Future

Karnataka State Cricket Association: Chief Minister-designate and Karnataka Congress President D.K. Shivakumar on Monday alleged that influence from Gujarat led to the shifting of the IPL final from Karnataka to Ahmedabad, depriving fans in the state of hosting the marquee match. Speaking to reporters at his residence in Bengaluru, Shivakumar said the IPL final should have been held in Karnataka and that the state government had granted the necessary permissions.

Chinnaswamy Stadium. It is an injustice to the stadium we have here and also to the youngsters.
