IPL 2026: Desparate MI Sweat Over Rohit's Fitness, Bumrah's Form Ahead Of PBKS Clash

Indian Premier League: Having succumbed to three successive defeats following the victory in their season-opener, five-time champions Mumbai Indians enter their fifth match of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 for a needle clash with their old bugbear, Punjab Kings, the only franchise that has a positive record against them. MI are desperate for a win and will be going into Thursday's clash at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, hoping to put their campaign back on track by capitalising on their stellar record at home. Mumbai Indians had raised hope of a great season when they won their opening match for the first time in 13 years, beating the Kolkata Knight Riders at home. Their fortunes have gone into a tailspin after that match, suffering back-to-back defeats to Delhi Capitals, Rajasthan Royals, and Royal Challengers Bengaluru, and are currently second from bottom with two points from four matches. Though it is too early to write them off, it is the right time for Mahela Jayawardene and his think tank to start getting concerned by the string of defeats and take measures to turn the tide. They have struggled with both the ball and the bat, conceding 200-plus runs in two of their four matches and being hammered for 150 in 11 overs by Rajasthan Royals in a rain-truncated match at Guwahati. How deep their troubles are can be gauged from the fact that their talismanic pace bowler Jasprit Bumrah has failed to claim a wicket in four successive matches, though Boom has restricted the flow of runs and not conceded massive runs. It is surprising how Bumrah, considered the best bowler in the World in this format, has gone off the boil a month or so after tormenting New Zealand with a four-wicket haul in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup final in Ahmedabad. Among the other bowlers, Trent Boult has provided them with early breakthroughs, as has Shardul Thakur, but both have proved costly. Mitchell Santner is yet to get into the groove on joining the side late after completing his national-team commitments in New Zealand. Going into Thursday's clash, the Mumbai Indians are also sweating over the fitness of former captain Rohit Sharma, who retired hurt with a hamstring injury during their last match against RCB on Sunday. He has undergone scans, and the team is tight-lipped on whether he is available for the match against PBKS. There are chances he may be used as an Impact Substitute if he gets the go-ahead from the doctors. His unavailability will create an opportunity for Quinton de Kock as the opening partner for his countryman Ryan Rickelton, but MI will have to rework their plans to fulfil the rules to maintain four foreign players in the playing XI. De Kock could only come in place of another foreign player, thus de-stabilising the balance in the middle-order or bowling unit. MI will be hoping for some big knocks from India T20 captain Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Varma, though skipper Hardik Pandya has done reasonably well so far, both with the bat and ball. Their opponents, the Punjab Kings, on the other hand, are going through a purple patch, perched at the second spot in the points table, the only team to be unbeaten in the league so far, with three wins and a No Result so far. They seem to have started from where they left off in the 2025 season, with the team gelling well under skipper Shreyas Iyer and head coach Ricky Ponting. Openers Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran Singh have given them some good starts, while skipper Shreyas Iyer has been his usual steady self in the middle order. Australian all-rounder Cooper Connolly made a sensational debut for the team with a brilliant unbeaten 72 against the Gujarat Giants. However, they have not been tested by strong bowling attacks so far, and it is to be seen how they perform under pressure. Skipper Iyer has performed consistently in the IPL in the last couple of seasons, but other batters in the middle-order have not been tested so far and may prove a stumbling block. On the bowling front, Arshdeep Singh and Xavier Bartlett have given them good starts while Vijaykumar Vyshak has claimed a three-fer so far, though he had figures of 0-33 in two overs in their last match against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Spinner Yuzvendra Chahal, too, has had an indifferent start to the season with only three wickets so far. Though the overall effect has been satisfactory for PBKS, there is not much to separate the teams in the head-to-head record, as MI have won 17 and PBKS 16 matches in their 33 clashes so far. PBKS have done well chasing so far, as all their wins have come while batting second. They are likely to continue to do that if they win the toss, unless they take the possibility of dew playing a major role on Thursday evening. The two sides have a history of close matches and faced off in Qualifier 2 in the 2025 edition, with PBKS emerging victorious and going on to play the final, where they lost to Royal Challengers Bengaluru. So, their clash at the Wankhede on Thursday could be another humdinger, though the current poor form of the Mumbai Indians means PBKS will fancy their chances of maintaining their unbeaten run Squads: So, their clash at the Wankhede on Thursday could be another humdinger, though the current poor form of the Mumbai Indians means PBKS will fancy their chances of maintaining their unbeaten run Also Read: Live Cricket Score Punjab Kings: Shreyas Iyer (c), Priyansh Arya, Pyla Avinash, Harnoor Singh, Prabhsimran Singh (wk), Vishnu Vinod (wk), Nehal Wadhera, Azmatullah Omarzai, Cooper Connolly, Marco Jansen, Musheer Khan, Mitchell Owen, Shashank Singh, Marcus Stoinis, Suryansh Shedge, Arshdeep Singh, Xavier Bartlett, Yuzvendra Chahal, Praveen Dubey, Ben Dwarshuis, Lockie Ferguson, Harpreet Brar, Vishal Nishad, Vijaykumar Vyshak, Yash Thakur.

Rashid Khan 'best T20 Bowler In The World', Learning From Him A Great Experience, Says Suthar

Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy: Gujarat Titans left-arm spin bowling all-rounder Manav Suthar has called Afghanistan leg-spinner Rashid Khan as the best T20 bowler in the world, adding that learning from him in the IPL has been one of the most defining experiences in his playing career. It has been a hundred percent great learning experience to be honest. He is the best T20 bowler in the world and just completed 1000 wickets in the format. There is no better legend than him in T20 cricket. By bowling alongside him in the nets and getting to talk to him, you get to learn so much. He says that the simpler you can keep in terms of bowling things, the better it is. You just have to bowl with good consistency. It feels really good to see, even when I am bowling alongside him, said Suthar in an exclusive conversation with IANS on Wednesday, facilitated by the franchise. That simplicity from Rashid was on display when he put out a masterclass in bowling to basics and picked 3-17 in GT's thrilling one-run win over Delhi Capitals earlier this month. The solid bond with Rashid, as per Suthar, goes well beyond the cricket field. 100 percent I have a very good bond with Rashid bhai. He is a very good human being. He meets everyone very well. If you ask him anything, he explains it to you very well. So, I have a very good bond with Rashid bhai, he said. Suthar said the warmth within the GT spin group featuring Jayant Yadav, Washington Sundar and R Sai Kishore has contributed to a family-like environment in the camp. I have a very good bond with everyone - even with Jayant bhai, Saiki, Washi. Everyone is there to help each other. If anyone wants to ask anything, everyone supports each other as a family, he said. That collective spirit, he said, had fed into GT's strong start to the season, with the IPL 20222 champions clinching back-to-back wins after successive losses. Obviously, we are in a very good mood to be honest. We won two matches back-to-back and we are now in a very good mood. Our focus is to keep things as simple as possible, he said. Reflecting on how the IPL experience had shaped him as a bowler, Suthar, who got his tournament debut in 2024, said facing world-class batters daily had accelerated his growth considerably. Obviously, it has changed a lot. When you bowl to such world-class batters, you learn something new every day. You get better day by day by doing that. So, obviously, it has impacted a lot, he said. A packed schedule between last year's IPL and this one featuring assignments against Australia A, South Africa A, T20 World Cup warm-up matches and a full domestic season where he also took 13 scalps for Rajasthan in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, only added to Suthars growth. It has been very good. Between last and this IPL, I was in matches against Australia 'A', South Africa 'A', T20 World Cup warm-up matches, one-day series and even the domestic season. So, it has been very good, Suthar said. Even not getting a chance for a long stretch didnt deter Suthar. Despite being with GT in IPL 2025, going to England tour with India A and featuring in Central Zone squad in the Duleep Trophy, Suthar didn't get a single game till he took eight scalps in the second four-day game against Australia A in Lucknow. Hence its understandable why Suthar credits the GT setup a lot for the rise in his career, starting from being a support bowler to a main squad member. Being in GT has influenced me a lot. As you said, I was a support bowler in GT before becoming a main team member. When you bowl to a good batter, you get to learn a lot because you get to know his mindset by bowling to him and what he thinks as a batter. Obviously, there is a lot of improvement in your game by doing it. Since I have been in this setup, I have grown a lot. When you bowl to a world-class batter, you hundred percent get to learn a lot. So, GT has had a very big influence on me, he said. On managing the demands of a year-round calendar, Suthar said fitness has become the key factor in making a switch quickly for playing all three formats. Fitness is very important. If you want to play cricket all year, because there are matches now. My focus is to stay fit and focus on fitness. Whenever the format changes, I try to switch on in the first 3-4 practice sessions because the format changes, the ball changes and my focus is to switch on quickly, he said. His personal philosophy remained anchored in the pursuit of daily improvement of his strengths of maintaining accurate line and length and relying on flight rather than speed.

Yes, it is very hot in Ganganagar. 50-52 degrees is very easy surpassed. So, obviously, it has an advantage. Article Source: IANS

'When He Bowled The Second Ball' Praful Hinge's Father Describes The Moment He Sensed His Son Would Do Something Big

Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium: Praful Hinge had no clue he was carrying a stress fracture. It was only in March 2023, after being selected for a stint at the MRF Pace Foundation in Chennai, that physio Naveen Babu PK broke the news to him - a severe L4 fracture on the left side of his lumbar spine. Six to eight months of rehab followed, and for Hinge, a young fast bowler from Nagpur, it felt like staring at the end of the road. Fast forward to nearly three years later, and Hinge was steaming in at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, after being handed a debut by Sunrisers Hyderabad. What followed was the stuff of IPL folklore with his tall height, clocking above 140 kmph, hitting the deck hard, and extracting steep bounce which few could do, Hinge ripped through Rajasthan Royals by picking four wickets in his first two overs. Three of them - including having teen prodigy Vaibhav Sooryavanshi top-edging to keeper on the very first ball - came in a dream opening over, leaving everyone in a trance. From fearing he might never get to bowl again to dismantling one of the tournaments most feared batting units, Hinges spell was a reminder of how quickly fortunes can flip. Fans expecting fireworks from RRs batters instead witnessed Hinge and fellow debutant Sakib Hussain wreck them with twin four-fers. In Chennai, Naveen Babu, the foundations physio since 2011, missed the first over entirely. By the time he switched on the TV, the damage was already done. I felt very bad that I didn't watch it. But when I saw that it was something which none of the bowlers did in the last 19 years, I was stunned. He was telling me even before the IPL began that, Sir, if I play in this IPL, I will make sure to get my name in the books. That is his mindset and shows the gritty nature he has. He never gives up, even when facing his worst phase or when he didnt get many chances after injury. I don't have words actually to describe this moment of happiness, recalled Naveen Babu in a free-wheeling conversation with IANS. At Hinges home, his father Prakash sensed he was on the cusp of something extraordinary. Hinge was supposed to debut against Punjab Kings in New Chandigarh, but a change in plans meant Jaydev Unadkat was slotted in as the impact player. Fate, though, had reserved a bigger stage and a louder roar from SRHs fans bathed in orange for his arrival. These kinds of things happen in matches, as per the situation and management, so we werent too concerned. But yesterday, when he bowled the first ball, it was jabardast (stupendous). When he bowled the second ball to take out Dhruv Jurel, I sensed he will do something special. After that, he got another wicket (of Lhuan-dre Pretorious) and soon, he had three scalps in the first over and the mahaul (atmosphere) became a little different, said Prakash. Usman Ghani, head coach of Vidarbha, Hinge's state team, was understandably chuffed for the youngster, who found Riyan Parags edge with an away-going delivery to get his fourth scalp. He was working hard for an opportunity, and I am very happy that he made it count. He did well for us and that's why the scouts who were keeping tabs on him were very happy. He should now carry on with this momentum, as at the end, this is a batters game. But then him picking four wickets and that too of Sooryavanshi is a very great effort, he said. On the insistence of former India pacer Prashant Vaidya, now director of VCAs Cricket Academy, Hinge applied for the MRF Pace Foundation intake in 2023. What was meant to be a career-defining step turned into a gut punch - the diagnosis of a severe stress fracture left the youngster shattered. I told him only one thing - once you finish your rehab, I can assure you that you won't develop the same injury again in your career. We worked towards that goal and he was so dedicated like he said, 'I won't go back to my hometown till I finish my rehab and bowl the first ball.' That was his determination and he carried out his whole recovery process for almost six months and then progressively loaded him into bowling. Then, he improved very well and went to play in the domestic season and had good performances there. Before the 2024/25 season, Hinge had another injury osteitis in the groin and went through rehab again. Since then, hes unstoppable, recalled Naveen Babu. Hinges rehab involved adequate rest, aqua and strength work, tailored fitness schedule and a complete biomechanical breakdown, followed by a rebuild. Ramji Srinivasan, former India strength and conditioning coach and a key person at the foundation, explained the nitty-gritty of Hinges recovery. We didn't rush through things and were very meticulous in the process. Varun (Aaron, current SRH pace bowling coach and ex-India pacer) and I talked a lot in understanding his running mechanics, bowling mechanics, pre-delivery stride, back foot and front foot landing, and the involvement of torque. Lots of things were discussed and designed bespoke for him. He is a very diligent, very dedicated and very gritty boy. During that injury phase, there was a lot of self-doubt in him and whether he'll play at all. But he recovered, played and followed the schedule regularly, even till the last Ranji Trophy game this year. I remember Hinge told Varun that, 'Just one chance, sir. If I get that, I will take care of it', he said. The MRF Pace Foundation has been running since 1987 and builds raw fast bowlers from the ground up in both fitness and technique. Accommodation, flights, physiotherapy, yoga, coaching, DEXA body composition scans, and adequate nutrition - not a rupee is charged from the pacers. From socks to cap, as M Senthilnathan, the foundation's cricket affairs head, puts it. Senthilnathan was filled with joy on seeing Hinge, as well as previous trainees Sakib and Eshan Malinga shine in Hyderabad. The effect of being under the legendary Glenn McGrath, the foundations head coach, rubbed well on Hinge, felt Senthilnathan. McGraths own former trainer, Kevin Chevell, also worked on Hinges conditioning last year. Glenn's part is that he teaches mentally about how to handle pressure on the field because mostly people talk to him about all these things. But on the field, a bowler has to fight his own battle, as he is on his own there. So, how to control your mind, how to come out of that situation even if he is put under pressure, bouncing back after a good shot was played by the batter or how to make a come back under pressure - these are the kind of important things which definitely have played a big part for Hinge while being under Glenn McGrath, he said. In June 2024, as part of the MRF Pace Foundations annual exchange programme with Cricket Australias High Performance Centre in Brisbane, Hinge spent close to a month bowling in unfamiliar conditions, reading unfamiliar pitches, and rubbing shoulders with Australian quicks. When Hinge wrapped Aaron for a bear hug after SRHs 53-run win, the smiles carried more than just joy. Aaron, who represented India in nine Tests and nine ODIs, knows the pain of injuries all too well. He endured three stress fractures in his back along with hamstring, groin, knee and foot injuries. For Srinivasan, Aarons greatest gift as SRHs bowling coach isnt just technical know-how - its empathy forged in experience. It was Varun's idea to recruit Hinge and Sakib for SRH. Sakib is also very quick, but coming back to Hinge, he kept his discipline and now his progression has to be very carefully monitored. Huge credit to Varun as well hes open to involving a lot of technology and science in the system. Varun bringing science into the system rather than just going through the motions has been beneficial. Varun lives by example and is now a guiding light for Hinge. I can confidently say he knows his onions as simple as that, he said. In December, while the auction played out in Abu Dhabi, Hinge was glued to it on his mobile screen inside a temple. A devotee of Lord Hanuman, he was shortlisted once before, only for injuries to derail his path. This time, SRH snapped him up at his base price of Rs 30 lakh. On Monday, with the new ball in hand, Hinge marked his run-up and what followed is now history. If someone has a dream debut in the IPL like this, izze zyada aur kya chahiye (what else do you need?), said a beaming Prakash. Before the surreal Monday night in Hyderabad, and trips to Chennai and Brisbane, Hinge grew up like countless cricket-mad kids in India - bat in hand and eyes fixed on hitting boundaries. Bowling was nobodys dream; it demanded strength, patience, and sacrifice. At 13, on Prafuls insistence, Prakash enrolled him at the local Gymkhana club - partly to channel his sons restless energy during summer holidays. When Prakash, an accountant recently retired from Maharashtras Electricity Board, dropped by the academy once, he found his son doing what every other boy did - hitting fours and sixes. Thats when he told Praful something that changed the way he played. Everyone becomes a batter, but very few become a bowler. He used to go on our terrace and try to bowl. I told him that you can try now to become a bowler. That was the only word I had and after that, he chose this path and has now made his career in bowling, he said. The family rallied quietly behind Praful - Prakash, his wife Alka, and daughter - a school topper from nursery to tenth standard, and buried in CA coaching - took turns dropping Praful at the academy and picking him up. It was the kind of everyday sacrifice families make, rearranging themselves around a dream without fuss. My daughter was the topper in merit list in the Vidarbha zone in 2014. I just told her to put in the hard work for achieving the dream she had and there was no bothering from my side. I also said the same thing to Praful if you want to play and juggle it with studies, do it. Slowly, slowly, he made the cricket ground his home, he said. The progression through Vidarbha's age-group structures was methodical for Hinge. In the 2019/20 Cooch Behar Trophy, Hinge played 11 matches and picked 36 wickets at an average of 25. In the 2023/24 CK Nayudu Trophy, Hinge featured in seven games, taking 26 wickets at an average of 19. He made his first-class debut for Vidarbha in October 2024 and picked up 16 wickets in the Ranji Trophy at an average of 26.37. His only T20 was against Andhra in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy in December 2025, taking 1-23. Hinge also played a vital hand in Neco Master Blasters' winning the inaugural edition of the Vidarbha Pro T20 League in 2025. The progression through Vidarbha's age-group structures was methodical for Hinge. In the 2019/20 Cooch Behar Trophy, Hinge played 11 matches and picked 36 wickets at an average of 25.

Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium: After Sunrisers Hyderabad snapped Rajasthan Royals four-match winning run in IPL 2026 with a comprehensive 57-run victory, former New Zealand cricketer Mitchell McClenaghan heaped praise on the debut heroics of 'Fearless Prodigies' Sakib Hussain and Praful Hinge, saying they have shown that the future of Indian bowling is in safe hands. Praful Hinge and Sakib Hussain announced themselves on the grand stage by picking eight wickets collectively as SRH ended IPL 2026 table topper RR's winning juggernaut with a thumping 53-run win at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium on Monday.

That wicket put the brakes on Rajasthans top order and their chances of chasing 217. Later, he showed his ability to bowl the slower ball, and his ability to nail them took everyone by surprise.

The first ball to Vaibhav Suryavanshi, he bowled a sharp bumper that caught him off guard and led to his dismissal.

Nitish likely to step down as Bihar CM on Tuesday, make way for first-ever BJP-led govt in state

Patna, Apr 14: Bihar finds itself on the cusp of a new political epoch on Tuesday when Nitish Kumar, the states longest-serving chief minister, is slated to make way for the first-ever BJP-led government in the province. Kumar, who heads the JD(U) and became a Rajya Sabha MP last week, is expected to tender his resignation shortly after the last meeting of his cabinet, which is scheduled at 11 am. It is a constitutional requirement. The chief minister informs his colleagues about his decision to dissolve the cabinet before meeting the governor, said Dilip Jaiswal, a senior BJP leader who is also a minister in the outgoing government. The BJP, which is the single largest party in the 243-strong assembly, with 89 MLAs, will thereafter elect its legislature party leader. The meeting of the legislature party is scheduled to be held at the BJP office here around 3 pm. Union minister Shivraj Singh Choudhan, whom the BJP parliamentary board has named central observer for the legislature party leaders election, is expected to fly down for the purpose. The 202-strong NDA also includes 85 MLAs of the JD(U), besides 19 of the Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) and five of the Hindustani Awam Morcha, headed by Union ministers Chirag Paswan and Jitan Ram Manjhi, respectively. In addition, there are five MLAs of Rashtriya Lok Morcha, led by Rajya Sabha MP Upendra Kushwaha. All the NDA legislators are scheduled to meet at the Central Hall of the state assembly at 4 pm. After a formal declaration of support from all constituents, the governor would be approached for the formation of a new government. Deputy Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary, a former state BJP president who holds the Home portfolio in the outgoing government, is being seen as a front-runner among those whose names are doing the rounds for the top job. However, BJP insiders admit that the possibility of a surprise, at the instance of the partys central leadership, as was recently seen in Rajasthan, Delhi and Madhya Pradesh, could not be ruled out. Meanwhile, JD(U) leaders, who are trying to come to terms with the imminent loss of political clout, hope that despite stepping down as chief minister, Kumar will continue to pull some strings. Nitish Kumar ji will spend most of his time in Bihar. He will be in Delhi only while the Parliament session is on. The new government will be formed with his consent, and it will work under his guidance, said JD(U) leader Zama Khan, the minister for minority affairs in the outgoing state government. He also said that the party hoped that Kumars only son Nishant, who had joined the JD(U) a month ago, would be considered for an important role in the new government.

IPL 2026: Debutant Hinge Picks Scintillating Four-fer As SRH End RR's Winning Run (Ld)

Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium: Debutant pacers Praful Hinge and Sakib Hussain announced themselves on the grand stage by picking eight wickets collectively as Sunrisers Hyderabad ended IPL 2026 table topper Rajasthan Royals winning juggernaut with a thumping 53-run win at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium on Monday. On a pitch where the odd ball was stopping, captain Ishan Kishan hammered eight fours and six sixes in his blistering 44-ball 91 as SRH posted a towering 216/6. Anything full and wide was crashed through the off side via Kishans lightning hands, while short balls were dealt with authoritative pulls and whips for the SRH captain to bring up his 19th IPL fifty. But that effort was overshadowed by a scintillating spell from Hinge, who was named to debut against Punjab Kings last week, but was later pipped by Jaydev Unadkat as the impact player. In a script that felt like a fairytale coming true, Nagpur-based Hinge became the first bowler in IPL history to claim a three-wicket haul in the opening over. He broke the back of RRs mighty top order, including dismissing Vaibhav Sooryavanshi for a duck, to end up with 4-34. Hussain, hailing from Gopalganj in Bihar, provided the clinical finish and remained unflappable to pick 4-24, as RR were bowled out for 159 in 19 overs. SRHs gamble of blooding two debutants coming in place of experienced campaigners Unadkat and Harshal Patel proved to be a masterstroke. The victory is SRH's second in five games and catapults them to fourth spot on the points table. On the very first ball of his spell, Hinge did what the likes of Jasprit Bumrah and Josh Hazlewood hadnt managed to do this season: dismiss Sooryavanshi cheaply. Sooryavanshis eyes lit up on seeing the short ball and went for an expansive pull, but the top-edge was caught by keeper Salil Arora, leaving Hinge and SRH jubilant. It was the start of a sensational spell for Hinge on the very next ball, he had Dhruv Jurel chopping on to his stumps, before Lhuan-dre Pretorius flicked straight to long leg. From the other end, fellow debutant pacer Sakib Hossain got his first IPL scalp as Yashasvi Jaiswal upper-cut a short ball with extra bounce to deep backward point. The nightmare continued for RR, as Hinge removed skipper Riyan Parag with a lovely outswinger, which he edged to slip, as the inaugural champions lost five scalps even before the third over was completed. With the games result rendered a foregone conclusion, Ravindra Jadeja and Donovan Ferreira steadied RRs ship with an aim to avoid having a huge dent on the net run rate. With the pair taking RR past 49, it meant they avoided the ignominy of the lowest score in the IPL. The duo brought up the fifty of their stand off 35 balls, with Ferreira being lighting quick to pounce on anything loose from spinners Shivang Kumar and Harsh Dubey and sent them over the boundary ropes to bring up his maiden IPL half-century off just 31 deliveries. But the 118-run stand, the highest for a sixth wicket for RR, was broken when Sakib castled Ferreira with a slower ball, while Jadeja nicked behind off Eshan Malinga. More delight came for Sakib when he dismissed Jofra Archer and Ravi Bishnoi with consecutive slower while Malinga had Tushar Deshpande holing out to extra-cover and close a thumping win for SRH. Long before the two debutants unleashed carnage, Archer silenced the sell-out Uppal crowd by dismissing Abhishek Sharma on the very first delivery, as he gave a thick edge to third man. It was Archers fourth first-ball wicket in the IPL, while Abhishek bagged his seventh duck in T20s this year. But Archers second over burst his bubble as Kishan whipped him for four, before pulling a bouncer for six and launching Sandeep Sharma down the ground. Nandre Burger nearly dismissed Travis Head twice in the fourth over - a nip-backer took an inside edge for four, while a mistimed loft just evaded Archer. But a rusty Head holed out to long-on off Riyan Parag just after SRHs fifty was raised in the power-play. Kishan marched forward to bring his fifty in 30 balls with a monstrous slog sweep off Ravi Bishnoi and brought up SRHs hundred by smoking Tushar Deshpande for six. Kishan then smashed three boundaries off Deshpande via a wristy flick and a brace of slices, as 21 runs came off the 11th over and the fifty of his partnership with Heinrich Klaasen arrived in just 26 deliveries. Kishan continued to tear into Archer, carving him through backward point, long-on, and deep mid-wicket for three fours. Following a floodlight failure break, Kishan fell nine runs short of his century, miscuing a pull off Sandeep to Jurel, who survived a collision with the pacer, while Klaasen chipped to extra cover off Archer for 40.

IPL 2026: Debutants Hinge, Sakib Pick Four Scalps Each As SRH End RR's Winning Run

Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium: Debutant pacers Praful Hinge and Sakib Hussain announced themselves on the grand stage by picking eight wickets collectively as Sunrisers Hyderabad ended IPL 2026 table topper Rajasthan Royals winning juggernaut with a thumping 53-run win at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium on Monday. In a script that felt more like a fairytale, Nagpur-based Hinge became the first bowler in IPL history to claim a three-wicket haul in the opening over. He broke the back of RRs mighty top order to end up with 4-34. Hussain, hailing from Gopalganj in Bihar, provided the clinical finish and remained unflappable to pick with 4-24. For RR, who were at 9/5, a partnership of 118 between Donovan Ferreira (69) and Ravindra Jadeja (45) - the second-highest stand for the sixth wicket or lower in the IPL, saved the side from being shot out for a low total, as they eventually folded at 159 in 19 overs. SRHs gamble of blooding two debutants coming in place of experienced campaigners Harshal Patel and Jaydev Unadkat proved to be a masterstroke. The victory is SRH's second in five games and catapults them to fourth spot on the points table, with their campaign firmly back on track. On the very first ball of his spell, Hinge did what the likes of Jasprit Bumrah and Josh Hazlewood hadnt managed to do this season: dismiss Vaibhav Sooryavanshi cheaply. Sooryavanshis eyes lit up on seeing the short ball and went for an expansive pull, but the top-edge was caught by keeper Salil Arora, leaving Hinge and SRH jubilant. It was the start of a sensational spell for Hinge he had Dhruv Jurel chopping on to his stumps, before having Lhuan-dre Pretorius flick straight to long leg. The astonishing dream start made Hinge the first-ever bowler to pick three wickets in the opening over of an IPL innings. The nightmare continued for RR, as Hinge removed skipper Riyan Parag just one ball after being whipped disdainfully through mid-wicket. He enticed Parag to chase a lovely outswinger, which the RR skipper edged to slip. From the other end, fellow debutant pacer Sakib Hossain got his first IPL scalp as Yashasvi Jaiswal upper-cut a short ball with extra bounce to deep backward point, as RR lost five scalps even before the third over was completed. With the games result rendered a foregone conclusion, Ravindra Jadeja and Donovan Ferreira steadied RRs ship with an aim to avoid having a huge dent on the net run rate. With the pair taking RR past 49, it meant they avoided the ignominy of the lowest score in the IPL. The duo brought up the fifty of their stand off 35 balls, with Ferreira being lighting quick to pounce on anything loose from spinners Shivang Kumar and Harsh Dubey and sent them over the boundary ropes to bring up his maiden IPL half-century off just 31 deliveries.
