IPL 2026: Tilak Varma, Ashwani Kumar star as Mumbai Indians outclass Gujarat Titans by 99 runs
Mumbai Indians achieved a commanding 99-run win against Gujarat Titans. Tilak Varma scored his first IPL century, setting a strong total. Mumbai's bowlers then dismantled Gujarat's batting lineup. Gujarat faced early wickets and struggled to build partnerships. The bowlers secured a comprehensive victory for Mumbai Indians.
Indian Premier League: Captain Hardik Pandya heaped praise on top batter Tilak Varma after his brilliant century helped the Mumbai Indians (MI) crush the Gujarat Titans (GT) by 99 runs in Match 30 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Monday. Pandya said that Tilaks knock was exactly what the team needed at the right moment. He highlighted that such performances were expected of a player of his talent and believed it was the right time for him to step up. The talent Tilak has, he does not need much advice. It was about time he came and delivered. It was much needed for the group, for Tilak and the Mumbai Indians, Pandya said after the match. Mumbai Indians put up a commanding total of 199/5, built around Tilaks sensational unbeaten 101 off just 45 balls, a knock that also saw him equal the franchise record for the fastest century. Naman Dhir supported well with a crucial 45-run innings, helping MI recover after early setbacks. Pandya also expressed satisfaction after the Mumbai Indians broke the four-match loss streak in IPL 2026. Very important. It is always challenging to go away and win. Also, Ahmedabad has not been a happy ground for the Mumbai Indians, so very satisfying, he said. Defending the total, MIs bowlers dominated from the start. Jasprit Bumrah struck on the very first ball, while Pandya himself removed Jos Buttler early in the chase. The pressure never eased on the Gujarat Titans as wickets fell regularly. Addressing questions around Bumrahs usage with the new ball, Pandya made it clear that it was a tactical choice. Quite fascinating, I have seen many people asking why Jassi hasn't bowled with the new ball, but he hasn't bowled with the new ball maybe 7 or 8 times, so it is not a Hardik Pandya problem, it is Jassi being special, he explained. Defending the total, MIs bowlers dominated from the start. Jasprit Bumrah struck on the very first ball, while Pandya himself removed Jos Buttler early in the chase.

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.

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.

IPL 2026: Danish Malewar, The 21-year-old Vidarbha Star, Hopes For More Changes After MI Debut
Indian Premier League: A new name has entered the spotlight for the five-time champions Mumbai Indians (MI) as 21-year-old batter Danish Malewar made his debut in the Indian Premier League (IPL) against Gujarat Titans (GT) at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Monday. The Vidarbha batter was expected to come in place of Rohit Sharma in MI's previous match against Punjab Kings at the Wankhede Stadium last Thursday. But the team management decided to go ahead with the South African duo of Ryan Rickelton and Quinton de Kock. However, Malewar, who came as an opener on Monday, failed to make an impact on debut as he struggled from the onset and got out against Kagiso Rabada after scoring just two runs in four balls in his debut innings. However, the youngster would be looking to do much better if he got more chances. Born on October 8, 2003, the 21-year-old from Nagpur is a right-handed top-order batter and a right-arm leg-break bowler. Known for his consistency in red-ball cricket and attacking intent in shorter formats, Malewar was picked by the Mumbai Indians at his base price of INR 30 lakh. His journey began at the City Gymkhana Academy under coaches Swaroopraj Shrivastava and Nitin Gawande. Joining at just seven years old, Malewar quickly stood out for his discipline and determination. By the age of 12, he was already representing Vidarbhas Under-14 team. One story often shared about him highlights his commitment. After returning from a tour at 2 am, Malewar chose to play an Under-14 final the very next morning and went on to score a century despite barely getting any rest. He rose through the ranks to become a key player for Vidarbha. In the 202425 Ranji Trophy season, he played an important role in their title-winning campaign, scoring 783 runs in nine matches at an average of 52. His tally included two centuries and six half-centuries, making him the teams third-highest run-scorer. One story often shared about him highlights his commitment.

Asked to bat first, the Mumbai Indians had a cautious start with a new opening combination of debutant Danish Malewar and experienced Quinton de Kock. The pair struggled to find timing early on, managing just two runs in the opening over, bowled by Mohammed Siraj. The pressure told in the second over when Kagiso Rabada struck early. Malewar, playing his first match, was trapped after scoring just two runs. De Kock tried to get going but couldnt convert his start, falling for 13 off 11 balls as Rabada produced a sharp caught-and-bowled effort. Amid the early setbacks, Naman Dhir looked positive and played a few attacking shots, including consecutive boundaries off Siraj. However, Rabada continued to dominate the Power-play, removing Suryakumar Yadav for 15 to leave the Mumbai Indians in trouble. At the end of six overs, the Mumbai Indians were restricted to 46/3. With the top-order back in the pavilion, Tilak Varma and Dhir focused on rebuilding the innings. The duo showed good composure, rotating the strike regularly and picking up boundaries whenever the bowlers erred. Their steady approach helped MI recover, as they reached 75/3 at the halfway mark. The partnership grew to 52 runs before Prasidh Krishna broke through in the 13th over. Dhir attempted a big shot but was caught in the deep, ending a valuable knock of 45 off 32 balls, which included several well-timed boundaries. Tilak, who had started cautiously on a slightly slow pitch, began to accelerate after Dhirs dismissal. He targeted the bowlers in the middle and death overs, especially taking on Prasidh Krishna in a high-scoring over that shifted momentum back in MIs favour. He brought up his half-century in 33 balls and continued to play aggressively. In the final overs, Tilak showcased his full range of shots, finding gaps with ease and clearing the boundary regularly.

Indian Premier League: Gujarat Titans (GT) pacer Prasidh Krishna has credited the bowling unit for a strong comeback in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 after a poor start as the team clashes with five-time champions Mumbai Indians (MI) at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Monday.

Krishna is once again among the leading wicket-takers, while Rashid Khan has been outstanding in the middle overs. While Siraj and Rabada are also looking in good touch. I would actually give credit to the bowling unit that we have. Everybody is bowling pretty well, keeping up the pressure, and that enables me to come in, bowl those balls, and maybe pick up the wickets, he said to the broadcasters ahead of the match. The right-arm pacer, who has picked up 11 wickets so far, brushed aside any specific tactical reasoning behind not getting wickets in the middle overs. I think its just a coincidence. Its not really that I come in to bowl at that stage, or that theres any tactic behind it. Its just that, as I said, the bowlers who are bowling with me and alongside me are creating enough pressure for false shots to come, and Im just benefiting with the wickets, he explained. Prasidh also underlined the importance of preparation and teamwork behind the scenes, noting that consistent communication and planning play a major role in execution on the field. Theres a lot of effort put in on the field as well, during practice days. There are a lot of discussions that go around with your fellow players and coaches.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Delhi Capitals head coach Hemang Badani has thrown his weight behind David Miller after the batter refused a single in the closing stages of the game against the Gujarat Titans, saying that the veteran left-handed batter took the right call for not taking a single on the penultimate ball despite it ending in a one-run defeat. After being unable to take DC over the line against GT when they needed two runs off two balls earlier this month, Miller completed a redemption of sorts by smashing Romario Shepherd for two sixes and a four in the final over to help DC beat Royal Challengers Bengaluru by six wickets at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium. See, I think first and foremost we need to understand that he is somebody who has been around for a very, very long time. Yes, it is heartbreaking to lose a game like the one we lost against Gujarat. There was enough chatter about it through social media, on the news, on the telly, and even (by) the broadcasters. But the bottom line is that the player takes a call at some time. Sometimes you get the right call, sometimes you don't get the right call. I still believe that he has taken the right call. Contrary to what everyone else thinks, that is an opinion that I respect, and I understand that everyone has an opinion, Badani said in the pre-match press conference, ahead of DC taking on Sunrisers Hyderabad. With 15 runs needed from the last over, Miller got the strike again when 13 runs were required off four balls and achieved it with great gusto, while sharing a match-winning 45-run partnership with Player of the Match Tristan Stubbs. But to come out of that, I think he has shown character. I think the world sees that he is somebody who can finish games. He has done that in the past, and we believe in him. If you go back and see the visuals and the way we backed him even after that one run loss, the conversation from the captain to the coach, to the management, to the players was straightforward. It is absolutely okay, it can happen, and we trust in you, and he has literally shown us the faith within two games, added Badani. Speaking on batting consistency and the demands of T20 cricket, Badani said, If I have to answer this in a nutshell, this format does not rely on consistency. It relies on impact, seizing the moment, and stepping up when it really matters, and I think we have done that. Even if you speak of the couple of losses that we have had, one, I think the whole world knows that with that Miller one run, things could have been very different. The other game was the only game that we spoke of, the one that is against CSK. If anybody were to win four out of five games, I don't think any side would be worried about it. I think it is more about the process that we have followed. I think we have consistently stuck to the process. Results will come or not come. But we are happy with the way we are going, he added. On Sameer Rizvis recent performances, especially after he had a blip post two match-winning knocks in as many chases, Badani said, He is in a great space. I mean, this format, if somebody has won you two games single-handedly, he has actually got three Man-of-the-Match awards from last year. I don't think many of you would remember that the last game that he played for us was a man-of-the-match. If anybody were to win four out of five games, I don't think any side would be worried about it. I think it is more about the process that we have followed. I think we have consistently stuck to the process. Results will come or not come. But we are happy with the way we are going, he added.

Former Afghanistan Pacer Shapoor Zadran Battles A Rare Illness, Admitted To ICU In New Delhi
Afghanistan Cricket Board: Former Afghanistan pacer Shapoor Zadran is in a critical condition at a hospital in New Delhi after being diagnosed with Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), a rare and life-threatening immune disorder. Zadran, who played 44 ODIs and 36 T20Is for Afghanistan from 2009 to 2020, is currently in the intensive care unit (ICU) with stage four HLH. Under this condition, a person suffers from hyper-inflammation, which leads to damage in tissues, including the bone marrow, liver, spleen, and lymph nodes. His younger brother Ghamai Zadran, who resides in Canada, said Shapoor first felt unwell in October last year and was advised to seek treatment in India. With support from Rashid Khan and Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB) chairman Mirwais Ashraf, Shapoors visa was fast-tracked, and he was admitted to the hospital in New Delhi on January 18. It was a very serious infection. His whole body was full of the infection, including TB (tuberculosis). It also spread to his brain, which was revealed after an MRI and CT scan, Ghamai was quoted as saying by ESPNCricinfo. While Ashraf spoke about Shapoor to ICC chairman Jay Shah, Rashid reached out to his contacts in the franchise circuit, including the Gujarat Titans, for whom he plays in the IPL. Rashid had even come to meet Shapoor when Afghanistan had their Mens T20 World Cup group game in New Delhi this year. On April 3, Afghanistan wrist-spinner AM Ghazanfar, who plays for the Mumbai Indians in IPL 2026, visited Shapoor a day before he had the game against the Delhi Capitals at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. Former Afghanistan captain Asghar Afghan has been shuttling between Dubai and Delhi to assist Shapoor, while Rashid and other Afghanistan players have stayed in touch with doctors and family. Despite initial improvement, his condition worsened with recurring infections, dengue, and severely depleted red blood cell counts.

India Hand A Debut To Anushka, Kranti Included As Unchanged SA Elect To Bowl First
Asia Cup Rising Stars: India handed a debut to batting all-rounder Anushka Sharma while bringing in Kranti Gaud into the playing eleven as an unchanged South Africa won the toss and elected to bowl first in the second T20I at Kingsmead on Sunday. South Africa are leading the five-game series 1-0 after beating India by six wickets in the series opener at the same venue on Friday. The wicket should be a little slower overall. Nice to know what to chase later on. Still four more games in the series, plenty of chances to do that later on (testing the batters by batting first), said South Africa captain Laura Wolvaardt. India skipper Harmanpreet Kaur said Anushka and Kranti come into the playing eleven in place of Renuka Singh Thakur and Kashvee Gautam, who have been rested for Sundays clash. Anushka had a memorable maiden Womens Premier League (WPL) stint this year, making 177 runs in seven games at an average of 25.28 and strike-rate of 129.19 for Gujarat Giants. She went on to make 116 runs in five innings at an average of 23.2 and strike-rate of 104.50 as India A won the Womens Asia Cup Rising Stars title in Bangkok. We were thinking of bowling first. It's a good surface. Batting first is also not a bad option. Had good discussions (over where we went wrong in first game). Batting wise we were okay, bowling plans we didn't execute. Its all about playing good cricket, she said. Sundays game also marks the 100th T20I appearance for opener Shafali Verma, who holds the record for being the youngest debutant for India womens team in the shortest format. Shafali is now the third youngest player from any nation across men's and women's cricket to reach 100 T20I caps.

IPL 2026: When And Where To Watch GT Vs MI, Know All Details
Indian Premier League: Five time champions Mumbai Indians (MI) will clash with 2022 winners Gujarat Titans (GT) in match number 30 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 to be played at Narendra Modi Stadium on Monday. GT have bounced back strongly from opening two defeats to string together three consecutive victories. Their bowling unit, which was a strength last year, has rediscovered its rhythm and is now delivering across all phases of the innings. Prasidh Krishna is once again among the leading wicket-takers, while Rashid Khan has been outstanding in the middle overs. While Siraj and Rabada are also looking in good touch. Captain Shubman Gill has been remarkably consistent, notching up half-centuries in each of their three wins. Jos Buttler, too, has looked in destructive touch, producing impactful knocks against Delhi Capitals and Lucknow Super Giants. In contrast, the Mumbai Indians find themselves struggling for momentum. After ending their long-standing streak of losing opening matches, they have slipped into poor form with four successive defeats, leaving them in the lower half of the standings. Jasprit Bumrah, though economical, is yet to claim a wicket in five matches, and the bowling unit as a whole has failed to take wickets at regular intervals and also stop the flow of runs. India's T20 World Cup champions Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Varma have both endured lean patches, managing just one half-century between them. Quinton de Kock, however, has been a bright spot on his return, smashing an unbeaten 112 against Punjab Kings after stepping in for Rohit Sharma, who was sidelined with a hamstring injury.

'We Made 175 Feel Like 190': Karthik Praises RCB's Fightback Despite Loss To DC
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) batting coach Dinesh Karthik believes his side punched above their weight with the ball and made 175-run total feel like 190 despite ending up on the losing side against Delhi Capitals (DC) in a last-over thriller. RCB posted 175/8 after being put in to bat, with Phil Salt leading the charge with a brisk 63. However, the innings lost momentum in the final phase, as DCs bowlers executed their plans well to concede just 29 runs in the last five overs. RCB responded strongly with the ball. Bhuvneshwar Kumar led the early charge with three wickets in the powerplay, reducing DC to 18/3 and putting them firmly on top. However, the game slipped away in the final over when David Miller produced a stunning finish, smashing two sixes and a boundary to seal the win for DC. 'We made 175 feel like 190, which is all you can do; at no point did we feel that we were run short. We just wanted to fight with what we have. The fighting spirit and attitude shown were very encouraging for us as a team, he said in a video released by the franchise on X. It was a tough pitch to bat, and we played quite well for about 75% of the innings. But yes, in the last five overs we probably didnt get as many runs as we wanted, Karthik admitted. But we bowled so well, we fielded our skin out, we did everything possible, showed the kind of commitment that players have towards the team.
