IPL 2026: Burger, Archer, Jadeja Pick Two Wickets Each As RR Bowl Out CSK For Just 127
Chennai Super Kings: Rajasthan Royals pacers Jofra Archer and Nandre Burger ripped through Chennai Super Kings top-order before Ravindra Jadeja made a double-strike, as the visitors were bundled out for just 127 in the IPL 2026 clash at the ACA Stadium on Monday. Missing the calming presence of MS Dhoni and Dewald Brevis, CSKs young batting unit faltered on a red-soil pitch offering early assistance to bowlers, thanks to some pre-match drizzle. Archer and Burger made the ball talk to pick two wickets each while Jadeja had two in the eighth over in a disciplined bowling performance for RR. Only Jamie Overton showed fight, counterattacking at number eight with a gritty 43 off 36 balls that lifted CSK from 84/8 to a total showing some semblance of respectability. But the total remained well below-par, leaving RR with a golden opportunity to start their campaign on a winning note under new full-time captain Riyan Parag. Archer began by swinging the ball both ways to trouble Sanju Samson and Ruturaj Gaikwad in the opening over. Nandre Burger then made the first breakthrough by knocking over Samson for 6 with a delivery that shaped away and crashed into the off-stump. Archer returned to remove Gaikwad in his second over - the CSK skipper backed away to access the off-side but missed a straight ball and was bowled for six. Burger intensified the collapse in the third over as Ayush Mhatre fell for a golden duck - gloving a bouncer to keeper Dhruv Jurel, as RR got the decision in their favour on review. Sarfaraz Khan came in as the impact substitute and began his resistance by pulling Burger for four and six in successive balls. After debutant Brijesh Sharma impressed by conceding only six runs in the fourth over, Sarfaraz kept counterattacking to keep the scoreboard ticking. Sandeep Sharma struck immediately in the final over of power-play as Matthew Short, who struggled to get going, chipped a slower ball straight to mid-wicket for two, as CSK closed the power-play at 41/4. Post that, CSK suffered two major blows - Sarfaraz attempted a sweep off ex-CSK stalwart Ravindra Jadeja, but missed it and was trapped lbw for 17, while Shivam Dube holed out to long-off. Sarfaraz Khan came in as the impact substitute and began his resistance by pulling Burger for four and six in successive balls. After debutant Brijesh Sharma impressed by conceding only six runs in the fourth over, Sarfaraz kept counterattacking to keep the scoreboard ticking.

Chennai Super Kings: New Zealand pacer Matt Henry said he was excited to get going for five-time champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in IPL 2026, adding the squad was looking forward to getting the tournament underway tonight against Rajasthan Royals (RR) at the ACA Stadium on Monday. Its just exciting. I think when you come to the IPL, the passion, I suppose the crowd, the atmosphere, its what you want as a cricketer and to be tested. So its exciting to get started tonight for CSK and the guys are looking forward to it. Obviously being a bowler, looking to have impact with the ball, especially early on, I think you see the way that teams are attacking the powerplay and I think thats probably trying to get wickets as you can and then stemming the flow of runs. So obviously its been a big challenge the last couple of years in the IPL, so hopefully we can do it well, said Henry in a pre-game chat with the broadcasters.

IPL Ticket Row Resolved, MLAs To Get 3 Tickets: Shivakumar
DNA Entertainment Networks Managing Director: Deputy Chief Minister and Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee President D. K. Shivakumar on Monday said that the issue of ticket allocation for Indian Premier League matches has been resolved amicably, with a revised quota for legislators and Members of Parliament. He made the statement after addressing the media following a meeting with members of the Karnataka State Cricket Association, Royal Challengers Bangalore, and DNA Event Management Company. Shivakumar said he had earlier held discussions with the Speaker and senior leaders on the matter. It has been decided that three tickets will be provided to Members of the Legislative Assembly and Members of Parliament for Indian Premier League matches, instead of the earlier four. For international matches, the Karnataka State Cricket Association will provide two complimentary tickets; additional tickets must be purchased. He explained, Two tickets will be given free, and if they want two more, they will have to purchase them. Representatives from Royal Challengers Bangalore, the DNA network, and Karnataka State Cricket Association management had met him regarding the issue. Karnataka State Cricket Association President and former Indian pacer Venkatesh Prasad was also present during the discussions. If anyone does not want tickets, they can submit a letter. Members of the Legislative Assembly make several demands, and not all can be fulfilled. The issue has now been settled, he said. Shivakumar noted that in states like Rajasthan, Mumbai, Delhi, and Kolkata, a significant percentage of tickets, over 50 to 60 per cent, are allocated to government officials and related categories. Compared to those places, there is less interference here, he said, adding that the matter has been closed. Regarding infrastructure, he said discussions were held to increase seating capacity at the Chinnaswamy Stadium. Authorities have been asked to submit a proposal to the government. If seating capacity can be increased by 20,000, it would be beneficial. Once the proposal comes, the government will examine it, he said. Responding to a query on a separate gallery for politicians, he said he did not wish to interfere. It was a small request. For Royal Challengers Bangalore matches, three tickets will be given, and for other matches, two tickets will be given. I will not interfere further, he said. He also said the government has allocated land for sports infrastructure, including 25 acres near Golden Spa, 25 acres in Tumakuru, and land in Mysuru. In Bengaluru, two to three locations have been identified for developing a new stadium that can host multiple sports, not just cricket. On by-elections, Shivakumar said he will campaign in Davanagere on Tuesday, while Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has already campaigned in Bagalkot. I will visit Bagalkot the following day, return to Davanagere, and then go back to Bagalkot, he said. He also said he will travel to Kerala on April 5 and 6. He announced that he, along with All India Congress Committee General Secretary Randeep Singh Surjewala, will address a press conference at the Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee office regarding the cooking gas crisis. Speaking about Assam, Shivakumar said the Congress party stands by its promises. We have announced guarantees in Assam and delivered speeches there. The Congress always keeps its word, unlike those who promised Rs 15 lakh in bank accounts and Acche Din, he said. He added that he has visited Assam multiple times and recently tried local cuisine at a hotel, describing it as tasty. We have announced guarantees in Assam and delivered speeches there.

CSK Players Don't Roam As 5-time Champions; Happy To Be A Part Of That Culture: Samson
Chennai Super Kings: Sanju Samson is stepping into unfamiliar territory this IPL season, but the transition to the Chennai Super Kings already appears to have settled him. On the eve of their 2026 campaign opener against his former side, the Rajasthan Royals, Samson offered an unfiltered glimpse into his early days with the five-time champions, touching on culture, transition, and what lies ahead. Feels really good, feels really excited to be a part of a champion franchise. Lots to learn, lots to observe, and really excited, really very calm. I think this is something which I relate to very much. I think I am a very chilled-out person, very calm, but when it comes to business, I think we give our everything, he said in a video shared by the franchise. For Samson, the appeal lies not in the weight of CSKs legacy but in how lightly it is worn. Despite the franchises success, he pointed to a dressing room environment that mirrors his own temperament: calm, composed, and quietly focused. I can see in the dressing room people are calm, people are chilled out. They don't roam around as 5-time IPL champions. I think they don't roam around as the greatest cricketers the world has ever seen. But that's what I really like to be a part of, and I am very happy that I am part of that kind of culture. And still early days, still looking forward to a lot of exciting things, he said. He also hinted at a broader transition underway within the squad, suggesting that the current phase is part of a carefully thought-out rebuild, as he said, I think I would like to call it 'very well planned', actually. So yeah, very excited to play RR, looking forward to it. The immediate test, however, comes against familiar opposition. Facing Rajasthan Royals straight away adds an emotional subplot, and Samson expects the crowd dynamic, particularly in Guwahati, to once again tilt heavily in CSKs favour. I think last time when we played RR vs CSK in Guwahati, it didn't feel like an RR home game. It was yellow all over the stadium. So that's what we can expect again this time. And also, I think the passion of the crowds I think they bring up a lot of energy. I think very passionate crowds in Guwahati are what I expect. And I think hopefully the wicket also plays well and we get a good game of cricket, he mentioned. Beyond the occasion, Samson shed light on the squad composition, emphasising the influx of young, attacking talent brought in through the auction, stating, Our management and all the staff, including Stephen and a lot of people, have done really great work for the auction. We have picked up some really exciting talents from the auction. CSK is definitely in a building phase, and that's what our recruitment has also been. So the number, definitely, the age is definitely much less. But in the amount of sixes these guys are hitting, they don't actually look like youngsters anymore. So I think that's what the character of the mindset is; it's required in this format and in this hype. Just be free and go out there and express yourself with a lot of fearlessness. I think that's what youngsters bring in, and we all are very excited to play with them. While CSKs identity has long been associated with experience, Samsons remarks point toward a shift, one that blends youth with an aggressive, fearless approach suited to the modern T20 game. Yet, as much as the cricketing aspects matter, Samson framed the IPL as something larger, particularly for CSKs expansive fanbase. CSK is definitely in a building phase, and that's what our recruitment has also been. So the number, definitely, the age is definitely much less. But in the amount of sixes these guys are hitting, they don't actually look like youngsters anymore.

IPL 2026: Brevis is Out With Side Strain, Informs CSK Head Coach Fleming
The Super Kings will face Rajasthan Royals on Monday in their opening IPL game
IPL 2026: Brevis Ruled Out Of CSKs Opening Game Against RR Due To Side Strain
Chennai Super Kings: Five-time champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will be without South Africa batter Dewald Brevis for their IPL 2026 opening match against Rajasthan Royals (RR) after he suffered a side strain while training, confirmed head coach Stephen Fleming. CSK is hopeful he will be fit again soon, said Fleming in the pre-match press conference at the ACA Stadium on Sunday. Brevis absence compounds CSKs injury woes - fast bowler Nathan Ellis has already been ruled out of the season, while former captain MS Dhoni is expected to miss the first two weeks of the competition due to a calf strain. It is understood that Dhoni has not traveled with the team to Guwahati and has stayed back in Chennai instead to focus on his recovery. Left-arm pacer Spencer Johnson, named as Ellis replacement, is due to join the squad on April 21 as he continues his recovery from a back stress fracture issue. CSK endured a poor campaign in 2025, finishing at the bottom of the table with just four wins, and will be hoping for a turnaround in 2026. Brevis had impressed in his short stint last season after joining as a replacement player for Gurjapneet Singh, scoring 225 runs in six innings at a strike rate of 180, including 17 sixes. He was retained for this season and was widely tipped to play a key role in the middle order. It is understood that Dhoni has not traveled with the team to Guwahati and has stayed back in Chennai instead to focus on his recovery.

IPL 2026: When And Where To Watch RR Vs CSK, Know All Details
Indian Premier League: The inaugural Indian Premier League (IPL) champions, Rajasthan Royals, are set to kick off their IPL 2026 campaign on Monday with a clash against five-time title winners Chennai Super Kings at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium. While CSK will be aiming to make an early statement in their pursuit of a sixth crown, the Royals will be eager to turn the page after a forgettable 2025 season. Adding intrigue to the contest is Sanju Samsons first outing against his former side. Having been the face of Rajasthan for over a decade, as captain, leading run-scorer, and a central figure in their run to the 2022 final, Samson now finds himself in CSK colours. His move, part of a high-profile swap that saw Ravindra Jadeja return to Rajasthan, adds an emotional subplot to the fixture, as the all-rounder also faces his old team. Samson enters the season riding a wave of confidence following his impactful performances in Indias triumphant T20 World Cup campaign, where he notched up three consecutive half-centuries against the West Indies, England, and New Zealand. At CSK, he is expected to play a key leadership role alongside captain Ruturaj Gaikwad, with the duo likely to open the batting. The absence of MS Dhoni, who is sidelined for at least two weeks with a calf strain and has not travelled to Guwahati, shifts additional responsibility onto Samson and Gaikwad. It also creates opportunities for emerging players, including 20-year-old spin-bowling all-rounder Prashant Veer and big-hitting uncapped recruit Kartik Sharma, who has earned attention in domestic cricket for his power-hitting. For Rajasthan, Samsons departure signals the end of a defining chapter and the beginning of a new phase under the leadership of Riyan Parag, who will captain the side at his home venue. The return of Jadeja adds depth and experience, though concerns remain about his recent effectiveness as a finisher. The Royals batting will largely revolve around Yashasvi Jaiswal, who now assumes greater responsibility as the senior figure in the top order. He will be supported by promising youngster Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and the in-form Shimron Hetmyer, both capable of providing explosive starts, an area where RR excelled last season. However, their bowling unit remains a concern. Following a significant revamp after last years struggles, consistency remains a question mark, particularly in the pace department led by Jofra Archer. The spin responsibilities will largely rest on Jadeja and Ravi Bishnoi. Both teams head into the new season looking to rebuild after underwhelming campaigns in 2025, with CSK finishing at the bottom of the table and Rajasthan just one place above them in ninth, making this opener an early opportunity to reset and reassert themselves When: Monday, March 30, 7:30 PM IST Where: Barsapara Cricket Stadium, Guwahati Where to watch: The RR vs CSK match will be broadcast on Star Sports channels, with JioHotstar live-streaming the game.

Ashwin To Become First Indian To Play In MLC After Signing With San Francisco Unicorns
Grand Prairie Cricket Stadium: Ace off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin is all set to become the first Indian playing to feature in Major League Cricket (MLC) after signing with the San Francisco Unicorns for the 2026 season. Ashwin was a member of the Indian team winning the 2011 ODI World Cup and the 2013 Champions Trophy. In all, he picked 765 international wickets from 287 matches across all three formats and remains the seventh-highest wicket-taker in Test crickets history. The MLC has proven over recent seasons that it can put on a show, bringing in world-class players and offering significant exposure to US domestic cricket talent, and the opportunity to be a part of it with the San Francisco Unicorns was an opportunity I couldnt pass up. Taking on the mantle as the first Indian-capped player to compete in Major League Cricket is a major responsibility that I fully embrace. My absolute focus is to help this franchise win games and push for its first Championship, while also putting on a spectacular brand of cricket for the Bay Area fans, said Ashwin in a statement. Ashwin is also one of the top five wicket-takers in IPL history, having represented his home franchise, the Chennai Super Kings, as well as Rising Pune Supergiants, Punjab Kings, Rajasthan Royals, and the Delhi Capitals. He was supposed to play for Sydney Thunder in the Big Bash League (BBL), before a knee injury ruled him out of the competition. We are absolutely thrilled to welcome a player of Ashwins stature to the Unicorns. When you talk about match-winners and cricketing intelligence, his name is at the top of the list around the world. Bringing in the first Indian-capped player is a massive moment for our franchise and MLC as a whole, but first and foremost, hes joining to help us win games. His experience in high-pressure situations and his skill variations will be invaluable on the pitch and in the nets, and I cant wait to get into camp and start working with him, said head coach Cameron White. We are absolutely thrilled to welcome a player of Ashwins stature to the Unicorns. When you talk about match-winners and cricketing intelligence, his name is at the top of the list around the world.

Indian Premier League: Gujarat Titans wicketkeeper-batter Jos Buttler said the Indian Premier League (IPL), whose 19th edition starts from Saturday, has had the biggest influence on his cricketing career, adding that conversations he has had during his time in the tournament have served him well while representing England in all three formats. Buttler has played 121 matches and scored 4,120 runs at an average of 40, a strike rate of 149.38, including hitting seven hundreds and 24 fifties. He enjoyed a prolific IPL 2025 by amassing 538 runs in 13 innings at an imposing average of 59.8 and a strike rate of 163, as he, Shubman Gill, and B Sai Sudharsan made for a formidable top-order in the competition. Absolutely as I said, I think the IPL has been the biggest influence on my cricket career. Some of the lessons that I've learned during IPL seasons, (then) some of the interactions I've had, and some of the people I've had the pleasure of getting to meet and work with as coaches and players. Its just in the IPL -- some of the conversations that I've taken from the IPL have served me well in playing for England in both Test cricket and T20 cricket, then 50-over cricket - so it's had a huge impact. Like Kevin (Pietersen) was saying in his interview (on Buttlers podcast), the opportunity to be a friend of Raoul Dravid and work on that technique about playing spin creates some great opportunities that would otherwise be very limited. Even for instance, I've been here for three or four days and getting to talk to Matthew Hayden about batting -- I wouldn't get that opportunity probably otherwise. So it's really had the same impact for me as for KP, Buttler told IANS in a virtual roundtable chat on Saturday. GT, the 2022 IPL champions, will open their campaign against Punjab Kings in New Chandigarh on March 31. Buttlers ability to consolidate and press the accelerator makes him one of the most dangerous batters in the shortest format. But Buttler heads into IPL 2026 after a lean T20 World Cup, where he managed only 87 runs in eight innings. Asked whether this IPL carries extra significance following a below-par T20 World Cup campaign, Buttler insisted his approach to the tournament remains unchanged regardless of past showings. It's no more important or less important than any other IPL I've played. No matter what's gone on before, I always turn up to the IPL -- looking forward to the season, wanting to contribute to the team, and wanting to play well. So whether I've been scoring lots of runs coming into the IPL, it's the same challenge. Like, can you prepare well? Can you get in a good headspace to go out there and give yourself the best chance to perform? And whether I've been struggling for runs, it's the same challenge. So you have the energy to keep trying, keep putting yourself out there, keep preparing well, and trying to get back into the runs, as you would say. So it's the same challenge whether you've been, like I said, in a form or out of form. I turn up to the IPL every year excited, looking forward to the tournament, and really wanting to just play well for the team. So I'll just look at the scoreboard and try and do what's required on the day, he elaborated. On whether he had been able to pinpoint what went wrong for him in the T20 World Cup, Buttler stated there was no single answer to it, adding that leaning on a small, trusted circle of advisors, along with enjoying some time away from the game, has helped him to return to IPL cricket with a clear head. There's probably a small circle of people that you turn to try and ask for their advice or their opinion on what they're seeing. Ultimately, I tried hard and put a lot of effort into that World Cup, and for a multitude of reasons, probably, it just didn't quite work out. Actually, having the capacity and discipline to just say, that's okay. I tried hard to play a game that has elements of things that I can't control, and everyone else is trying to do well as well. So it just didn't quite work out. Being a 35-year-old player, I've had 15 years of times where I've had good form, bad form, had tournaments that went really well or didn't go to plan. So I think you're always trying to reflect and do self-analysis. But pinpointing one thing, there's actually, if there was that one secret, then I think we'd all know it, and we'd all score runs every time. But I don't think that exists. So it's just, I've had a bit of space from the game, which I've really enjoyed and sort of reflected on, whether I've scored runs or not, the challenge is the same thing for me - go to practice with energy and optimism, prepare well, and then go to the game, start on nought, and take it from there, he explained. Being a 35-year-old player, I've had 15 years of times where I've had good form, bad form, had tournaments that went really well or didn't go to plan. So I think you're always trying to reflect and do self-analysis. But pinpointing one thing, there's actually, if there was that one secret, then I think we'd all know it, and we'd all score runs every time. Also Read: Live Cricket Score He obviously played with Rajasthan last year, but I played against him in a practice game. He's obviously got pace, accuracy, and a fantastic slower ball. He's got a big heart, which I think you need as a fast bowler. So he's got all the attributes to be an exciting fast bowler. Article Source: IANS
