IPL 2026: Spencer Johnson Will Be In Our Starting XI Tomorrow, Says CSK Bowling Coach
Chennai Super Kings: Spencer Johnson is poised to take centre stage for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in their critical bottom-of-the-table match against Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Thursday. Bowling coach Eric Simmons hinted at Johnson's potential inclusion due to Khaleel Ahmed's injury. Khaleel had to leave the field before finishing his overs in CSKs last game against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). This situation led the team to consider Johnson as a replacement in their bowling lineup. His addition comes at a time when injuries have heavily impacted Chennais season. Khaleel Ahmed & Anshul Kamboj have been really good for us. Spencer Johnson (Khaleel's replacement) will be in our starting XI tomorrow night, Simmons said on the eve of the match.

IPL 2026: 'One Bad Loss Can't Define Us', Says GT's Shahrukh After Heavy Defeat To MI
Indian Premier League: Gujarat Titans batting all-rounder Shahrukh Khan said the side must treat their heavy 99-run defeat to the Mumbai Indians at the Narendra Modi Stadium as an aberration in their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 campaign, adding that every team endures at least one such result over the course of a long season. GT, the IPL 2022 winners, will next take on defending champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium on Friday, with an aim to get back to winning ways and improve their net run rate. A major point to watch out for will be how their middle-order, including Shahrukh, will step up in the rest of the season after having a forgetful time against MI, especially with their top three batters captain Shubman Gill, B. Sai Sudharsan, and Jos Buttler falling in the first five overs. That's the thing we have to do (set it aside and focus on upcoming games). Obviously, ups and downs in a long tournament are really normal for any team, but as professionals, it's important to set that aside and look forward to what has to be done. I think everybody is experienced enough to know it. One bad loss can't define us as a team. Everybody has that one bad loss in a long tournament. As individuals, we've set that aside and take the positives out of what happened and then move forward, said Shahrukh in an exclusive conversation with IANS on Tuesday. Last season, Shahrukh scored 179 runs at a strike rate of 179, but the lower-order hitter hasnt been off to the best of starts this year, making only 35 runs from 25 balls. At GT, Shahrukh has been deployed at various positions in the batting order number four, six, and seven, and stated he does not view his role as rigidly fixed. Obviously, my role is in the lower-middle order. But as the game progresses, it's not that somebody will bat in one particular situation. As the game progresses, everybody has to be ready to go in there and adapt to any situation and play. It's not a fixed sort of role. It's important that as middle order batters, we are really open in our head and try and go out and react to any situation that's in front of us, he said. Asked about the difference in batting across positions, particularly at number four compared to six or seven, Shahrukh acknowledged the contrasting demands of the roles, but maintained that professional adaptability was non-negotiable. It is obviously a different role altogether. I wouldn't say that this position is good or that position is good. As professionals, we must adapt to any situation, as I told you. At number four, obviously, you have the chance of taking a bit more time, probably three to four balls extra to get your eyes set in. But lower down the order, that doesn't happen. As professionals, we all know that this is the situation, and this is how it is going to be wherever we bat. Obviously, as per the amount of balls that we hit in the nets and practice, it's important that we adapt to any situation that's in front of us. Obviously, if we have a question of batting at number four or seven, it is different. But as professionals, we have to do it. We don't have any other choice here, he said. Former Australia opener Matthew Hayden has joined the Gujarat Titans as batting coach for IPL 2026, and Shahrukh shed light on the veteran's impact in the sides batting group. He has been a world-class player, obviously. Everybody looks up to him because of the power and the dominance that he showed throughout his career; whenever he batted, it was just immense. He has been really helping all batters in the nets - very simple information here and there. It's really helping batters to go out there and do what they want to. Hayden has obviously been a great influence for every batter who comes in, especially openers, because he has opened all his life, and the way he communicates stuff to the openers is brilliant, and his coming to the team has obviously gotten that. He is a guy who is always switched on, and he has got that aggression. So, it's really good to have him around, he elaborated. On his specific preparations for acing the finisher's role in the rest of the season, Shahrukh signed off by saying that hes aiming to ace two primary challenges bowlers pose at the back-end - yorkers and slower deliveries. The finisher's role is to start going from ball one, according to what the situation is put in front of you. The preparation has been very simple. Obviously, in the death overs, everybody is trying to bowl yorkers or slower balls. On his specific preparations for acing the finisher's role in the rest of the season, Shahrukh signed off by saying that hes aiming to ace two primary challenges bowlers pose at the back-end - yorkers and slower deliveries.

We were in trouble, but we dug ourselves from that, (we were) patient, and batted really well to get that score, he said in a video shared by the franchise, pointing to the composure shown by the middle order after early setbacks.

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 India’s 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 India’s first Firm and Dispatchable Renewable Energy project — a defining milestone in our vision to deliver firm and dispatchable renewable power. It reflects Juniper Green Energy’s 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 India’s 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 India’s 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.

We Couldn't Retract Negative Momentum, Got Some Work To Do: Hayden After GTs Loss To MI
Despite Tilak Varma: Gujarat Titans assistant coach Matthew Hayden admitted that the team fell well short of expectations in both departments as Mumbai Indians handed them a crushing defeat, with the former Australia opener pointing to poor execution on a surface he felt was far from a high-scoring one as he said that the 2022 champions have got some work to do. Despite Tilak Varmas stunning unbeaten century powering the Mumbai Indians to 199/5, Hayden believed the conditions at the Narendra Modi Stadium offered assistance to the bowlers and should have been managed better. Considering that performance, which, as I said, was both very average with the ball firstly, on a wicket that I really felt was probably a 175 type wicket. You know, when you look historically at this black soil pitch on No. 5, it's a 218 wicket for the lost five batters, that's been its winning first inning score, and today it wasn't that wicket, Hayden said in the press conference. It was visible that it had cracks in it, and it was up and down. So credit also has to go to Tilak Varma, who put in a wonderful performance from the position that you were just mentioning before. So we've got some work to do, definitely, he said. Tilaks counterattack proved decisive after MI were under pressure in the middle overs, with the left-hander turning the game around through an extraordinary display of power-hitting. Hayden likened the innings to a rare feat under difficult circumstances. Huge performance. I once spoke to a fisherman and asked him a question about longevity in his life and in his career, and he said, boy, when there's plenty of fish around, everyone catches fish. But what he did was that he caught fish when no one else was catching fish, Hayden said. Hayden acknowledged that his side was aware of MIs potential threat but failed to respond when it mattered most, saying, You know, Mumbai Indians, we all know that they're a dangerous side. We all know that they're notorious starters. We all know that they've got magic within that ocean that surrounds their ground there in Mumbai. And, you know, as an opposition side, we knew that, and we definitely, we blinked. And when you blink against a world-class player like Tilak Farmer, even on a wicket that's kind of spicy, that is our downfall. And we couldn't really retract the negative momentum that was going our way because of the performance that we saw at Tilak's moment. The former opener emphasised that Tilaks innings stood out for its adaptability and game awareness rather than just brute force. It wasn't just a one-dimensional performance. It wasn't a cookie-cutter-type performance. It was a dominant performance down the ground. He read the play nicely. We went into the wicket. He was able to pick up and play with power and precision. Hayden also pointed to tactical lapses, including poor shot selection and an inability to adapt to boundary dimensions as he said, And when you reflect on our own game, you know, we had one side of the ground that was a little more inaccessible than the other, and we lost, what, three wickets into the bigger side of that boundary. With Gujarat Titans now holding a 3-3 record, Hayden admitted the side has been inconsistent and failed to capitalise on a manageable chase. So Tilak, he had his day up, and he's now got Mumbai Indians in a position where they seemed like they were lacking a bit of belief, although suddenly with two younger players, they're able to beat us at home here. You know, this is a 50-50 record for us now. I think we're actually playing accordingly to that record, winning three, losing three. You know, before tonight, we won two out of the three run chases. Again, we put ourselves in the position to chase runs, Hayden stated. Hayden stressed that a target of 200 was within reach, particularly with the quality at the top of the batting order, but the early collapse derailed the effort. He said, And it wasn't an impossible total. Two hundred still is a total that I would back our three world-class players at the top of the order to etch into that a bit more and then allow our more sort of game players. An opportunity to set out their scores and back deep into the innings. Summing up the performance, Hayden conceded it was a forgettable outing for his side, with little to take away apart from one bright spot.

IPL 2026: 'We Gave Away Too Many Runs,' Says Gill After Gujarat Titans 'heavy Defeat' To MI
Indian Premier League: Skipper Shubman Gill admitted that the Gujarat Titans (GT) conceded too many runs in the middle overs as they slumped to a heavy 99-run defeat against the Mumbai Indians (MI) in Match 30 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Monday. Honestly, I think we gave away too many runs in the middle overs. On a wicket like that, I think 160-170 was a par score, Gill said after the match. Mumbai Indians had posted a commanding 199/5, riding on a sensational unbeaten 101 off just 45 balls from Tilak Varma, who also equalled the franchise record for the fastest century. Naman Dhir provided solid support with a 45-run knock, while Kagiso Rabada was the pick of the GT bowlers with three wickets. Chasing a big target, the Gujarat Titans never really got going. Jasprit Bumrah struck on the very first ball, while Hardik Pandya removed Jos Buttler early to put MI firmly in control. Despite a brief fightback, GT kept losing wickets at regular intervals. I think there are a lot of lessons for us from this game. A small hiccup, but now weve got a couple of games on the road, so hopefully we will come back on the winning side again, Gill said. Mumbai Indians bowlers dominated the chase, with Ashwani Kumar starring with a superb four-wicket haul, while Mitchell Santner and Allah Ghazanfar chipped in with two wickets each to bundle out GT well short of the target. Reflecting on what could have been done differently, Gill said his bowlers failed to adapt to the conditions. I think the wicket was a little bit on the slower side. I dont think we hit the right areas. The length ball wasnt coming on as well, some balls were coming, some werent, and some were keeping low, he said. I think we could have hit that length in the middle overs a bit more consistently, which we were not able to, he added.

IPL 2026: Tilak Vermas Ton, Ashwanis Four-fer Power MI To 99-run Win Over GT
Indian Premier League: Fast bowler Ashwani Kumar took four wickets after Titak Varma slammed an unbeaten century as the Mumbai Indians registered a dominant 99-run win in Match 30 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Monday. The big win gave a big boost to the Mumbai Indians' Net Run Rate as the five-time champions moved to seventh spot in the points table. Ashwani Kumar bagged 4-24 as the Gujarat Titans were bowled out for just 100 runs in 15.5 overs while chasing 200 runs as five-time champions. Earlier, India's T20 World Cup winner Tilak Varma smashed his maiden century off 45 balls and took the Mumbai Indians to 199/5 runs in 20 overs after a shaky start courtesy of Kagiso Rabada's three wickets in the Power-play. Chasing a challenging target of 200, the Gujarat Titans had a nightmarish start as they lost a wicket on the very first ball. Jasprit Bumrah struck immediately to dismiss Sai Sudarshan, marking his first wicket of the IPL 2026. The pressure continued in the next over when skipper Hardik Pandya removed Jos Buttler. The in-form batter was trapped lbw and, despite opting for a review, the decision stayed with the umpire. Buttler managed just 5 runs off 6 balls, leaving GT in early trouble. After the double setback, Sundar and captain Shubman Gill tried to rebuild the innings with a counterattack. The pair struck five boundaries in quick time, taking the score to 35/2 in four overs and briefly shifting momentum. However, just as the Gujarat Titans looked to stabilise their innings, young pacer Ashwani Kumar struck to remove Gill for 14 off 13 balls. Down three wickets, the Gujarat Titans ended the Power-play at 45/3, still under pressure in the chase. Mumbai Indians bowlers continued to dominate after the power-play. Allah Ghazanfar built pressure with a tight over before Mitchell Santner delivered a decisive double blow in the eighth over. He first dismissed Sundar for a brisk 26 off 17 balls and then removed Glenn Phillips with a clever slower delivery, leaving GT struggling at 56/5. With the match slipping away, Rahul Tewatia and Shahrukh Khan tried to steady things with a partnership built on singles and doubles. However, the required run rate kept climbing, adding more pressure. The stand was broken in the 11th over when Tewatia edged a delivery from Ashwani and was caught behind by Quinton de Kock for 8 off 11 balls. Ashwani continued his impressive spell, striking again in his next over as Rashid Khan was caught for four. He then completed a brilliant four-wicket haul by dismissing Shahrukh Khan, who fell while attempting a big shot. Ghazanfar wrapped up the innings by picking up back-to-back wickets of Rabada and Mohammed Siraj in the 16th over, sealing a comprehensive bowling performance. Ashwani Kumar was the standout bowler for the Mumbai Indians, finishing with excellent figures of 4-24. Santner and Ghazanfar supported well with two wickets each, while Bumrah and Pandya chipped in with one wicket apiece as the Mumbai Indians dominated the chase from start to finish. MI had a slow start after being put in to bat. Openers Danish Malewar and Quinton de Kock could not get going. Malewar was dismissed early for two by Kagiso Rabada, and de Kock followed soon after, scoring 13. Naman Dhir tried to counterattack with a few boundaries, but Rabada continued his strong spell. He picked up his third wicket by removing Suryakumar Yadav for 15, leaving MI struggling at 46/3 in the powerplay. After the early setbacks, Tilak Varma and Dhir rebuilt the innings with a steady partnership. They rotated the strike well and punished loose balls, taking MI to 75/3 at the halfway stage. Their 52-run stand ended when Prasidh Krishna dismissed Dhir for a well-made 45 off 32 balls. Tilak then shifted gears in the final overs. After a slow start, he began attacking the bowlers, hitting big shots all around the ground. He reached his fifty in 33 balls and then accelerated further. In the death overs, Tilak dominated the bowling attack, completing his maiden IPL century in just 45 balls. He remained unbeaten on 101, hitting eight fours and seven sixes, guiding the Mumbai Indians to a strong total of 199/5. For the Gujarat Titans, Rabada was the standout bowler with figures of 3/33. Mohammed Siraj and Prasidh Krishna picked up one wicket each. In the death overs, Tilak dominated the bowling attack, completing his maiden IPL century in just 45 balls.

IPL 2026: Tilak Varma Equals Record For Fastest Hundred For MI With 45-ball Masterclass Vs GT
Narendra Modi Stadium: Tilak Varma etched his name into the record books by equalling the fastest century ever scored for the Mumbai Indians (MI), reaching his hundred in just 45 balls during Match 30 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 against the Gujarat Titans (GT) at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Monday. With this effort, he matched the long-standing record of Sanath Jayasuriya, who had scored a 45-ball century against Chennai Super Kings at the Wankhede Stadium back in 2008. The list of fastest hundreds for the Mumbai Indians now sees Tilak share the top spot with Jayasuriya (45 balls, 2008), followed by Cameron Green, who smashed a 47-ball ton against Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2023, and Suryakumar Yadav, who registered a 49-ball century against Gujarat Titans in the same season. Tilaks knock also adds to MIs success against GT, becoming their second centurion against the franchise after Suryakumar Yadavs unbeaten 103 off 49 balls at the Wankhede Stadium in 2023. Speaking of the match, the five-time champions had a difficult start after being asked to bat first. Early strikes from Kagiso Rabada put MI under pressure, as he removed Danish Malewar, Quinton de Kock, and Suryakumar Yadav in the Power-play, restricting the side to just 46/3 in six overs. With the team in trouble, Tilak took responsibility and rebuilt the innings alongside Naman Dhir. The duo stitched a crucial 52-run partnership, stabilising the innings with smart strike rotation and timely boundaries. Dhir contributed a fluent 45 off 32 balls before falling to Prasidh Krishna. Tilak, who began cautiously on a slightly slow surface, shifted gears after settling in. He accelerated brilliantly in the latter half of the innings, targeting the bowlers with confidence.
