IPL 2026: 'I Feel This Could Be MS Dhoni's Last Season,' Says Aakash Chopra
Indian Premier League: Former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra believes that the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026, which will start on March 28, could be the last season for Chennai Super Kings (CSK )'s most experienced player, MS Dhoni, as Sanju Samson is ready to be his heir. Chopra also said that veteran should consider retirement if he continues only as an Impact Player for Chennai Super Kings this season. You dont run the team from the dugout, its not football. In cricket, you need to be on the field, and MS Dhonis biggest asset is his ability to read the game better than anybody else. That clarity and conviction are what make him who he is. In any case, I feel this could be his last season, Chopra told Jio Hotstar. He has the heir apparent now. Sanju Samson will eventually don the gloves, it could even happen at some stage during this season. Again, conditions apply in terms of MS Dhonis fitness and his knee. But he cannot be the Impact Player. If he is playing as an Impact Player, I think its time for him to hang up his boots, he added. You dont run the team from the dugout, its not football.

Former South Africa: Former South Africa player has opposed the idea of sending Chennai Super Kings (CSK) stalwart MS Dhoni up above the batting order in the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026, which will commence on March 28, stating that the former captain's strength lies in making the best use of death overs. Dhoni, who will be the oldest player in the IPL 2026, is practising hard ahead of the tournament. He had a poor season last year, batting at the 8th position and not being impactful at the end. However, according to Du Plessis, this should not propel the team to change his position. There are a handful of players in the world who have that clarity and backing to do it in the 19th and 20th overs. The mere mortals out there think there is more pressure in the 19th and 20th overs than in the 16th. But his clarity in those last 18 balls of the match, when he can really zone in on what is required, is second to none, Du Plessis told Jio Hotstar. If you send him in earlier and he gets out, you lose that at the back end. And there are enough players in CSKs middle order who can do more damage in those phases, players like Brevis and Dube, who are exceptional spin-hitters. That is their strength, so back them to do that. MSs strength has always been in overs 17 to 20, facing the seamers, he added. The former CSK player also stated that Dhoni's presence in the field is crucial for the team's success, as he provides vital tactical support to the captain and possesses a deeper understanding of the game. MS Dhoni is the best tactician and one of the most successful cricketers in the game when it comes to leadership. But I dont think CSK saw him playing as many seasons as he eventually did. So, they had to look at who was going to be the next Captain. Ruturaj was the next guy, and I thought, coming into his first season, he did a great job. Its just unfortunate that he got injured last season, where they missed him as a batter and as a Captain. In terms of tactics, MS is one of the most brilliant minds, he explained. So, I'll always have him on the field because you need his cricketing brain. The way he sees and reads the game, and the way you see him manoeuvre fields, thats his real superpower. Yes, weve loved watching him bat. But for me, its more about what he brings on the field, and thats something CSK have to use, Du Plessis noted. Du Plessis also hailed Dhoni as the fastest gloveman in the game and believes that, despite Sanju's entry, Dhoni should be the wicketkeeper of the team. MS Dhoni being behind the stumps doesnt always equate to something happening, but what it does is create a little bit of doubt in the mind of a young batter walking in. When I walk out to bat, I might think, Whats this field? Why on earth are two men there? Even if he is not weak in that area, he said. Du Plessis also hailed Dhoni as the fastest gloveman in the game and believes that, despite Sanju's entry, Dhoni should be the wicketkeeper of the team.

Questions Arise Over Riyan Parags Captaincy for Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2026
New Delhi, March 23: Former Indian cricket team opener Krishnamachari Srikkanth has raised concerns regarding the Rajasthan Royals decision to appoint Riyan Parag as captain for IPL 2026. Srikkanth remarked that Parag is treated like royalty within the franchise. Srikkanth expressed his surprise on his YouTube channel, stating, The decision to make Riyan Parag captain ... Read more Questions Arise Over Riyan Parags Captaincy for Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2026
Indian Premier League: Former India captain Krishnamachari Srikkanth has sparked a debate over the naming of Riyan Parag as captain of Rajasthan Royals for the 2026 season, saying he is treated like a king there. In a discussion on his YouTube channel, Srikkanth suggested that Parag may have received special support in the franchise. He noted that the decision seemed surprising, especially with more experienced players in the squad. He pointed out that while the franchise can make such decisions, Parag appears to be highly valued, despite his inconsistent performance. Everyone knows how he became the captain. That is their decision, but he is treated like the king there. Parag didn't have a good season last year, but the year before last, he did brilliantly. Last year, he didn't do anything deadly, he said. Parag was announced the Royals captain after Sanju Samson was traded to Chennai Super Kings for a significant Rs 18 crore. This trade also included Ravindra Jadeja and Sam Curran moving to the Royals before the mini-auction last December. Srikkanth went on to question why other potential leaders like Yashasvi Jaiswal, Dhruv Jurel, and the recently acquired Jadeja were overlooked, especially considering Parags uneven record. While the 24-year-old showed promise in earlier seasons, his last campaign did not have the same effect, even though he had previously had a standout season. Last year, while Samson was injured, Parag led the Royals in eight matches but only managed two wins. Despite this, the franchise has continued to support him as their long-term leader. Parag scored 393 runs with an impressive strike rate of 166.52 last season and made IPL history as the first player to hit six consecutive sixes in a single innings, achieving this against Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL 2025. Since being selected as a teenager in 2017, Parag has been a consistent player for the Royals, collecting 1566 runs in 84 matches, including seven half-centuries. However, inconsistency remains a major issue. Parag scored 393 runs with an impressive strike rate of 166.52 last season and made IPL history as the first player to hit six consecutive sixes in a single innings, achieving this against Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL 2025. Also Read: Live Cricket Score It's a decent side. They have the potential to upset sides. But they are also a side that will self-destruct. Yet, if two in their top five click, they will smash the opposition. The Jaiswal-Suryavanshi opening stand is their biggest plus. They are capable of winning matches singlehandedly. So they are a good side but not a dangerous one. They are not a championship-winning side. They are 50-50 even for playoff qualification, he remarked. Article Source: IANS

Rajasthan Royals Announce Dasun Shanaka As Replacement For Sam Curran
Indian Premier League: Rajasthan Royals have announced Sri Lankan all-rounder and T20I captain Dasun Shanaka as the replacement for Sam Curran for the Indian Premier League 2026 season after an injury ruled the English all-rounder out of the tournament. Curran, who was a part of the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in IPL 2025, was traded to RR along with Ravindra Jadeja as the five-time champions acquired Sanju Samson from the inaugural winners. We are disappointed to lose a player of Sams calibre so close to the start of the season. Sam brings immense value with both bat and ball. However, we are pleased to have found an ideal replacement in Dasun Shanaka, a finisher with the bat and a quality all-rounder who helps maintain the balance of our side, said Kumar Sangakkara, director of cricket and head coach at the franchise. Rajasthan Royals (RR) have picked a player replacement for injured Sam Curran for the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026.

Shanaka went unsold at last years IPL auction in Abu Dhabi, and was later picked up by Lahore Qalandars in the upcoming season of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) for PKR 75 lakh. With the signing, Shanaka became the second player, after Zimbabwes Blessing Muzarabani, to leave PSL and join IPL this year. South Africa's seam-bowling all-rounder Corbin Bosch made a similar switch to IPL last year, leaving Peshawar Zalmi to sign with Mumbai Indians, prompting the PSL to impose a one-year ban on him.

IPL 2026: Schedule Delays, Venue Confusion and Player Availability Raise Questions
The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026, branded as TATA IPL 2026 and the 19th edition of the event, is scheduled to be played from March 28 to May 31, with 10 teams competing in 84 matches. On March 11, BCCI announced the schedule for the first phase, to be played from March 28 to April 12 for the first 20 games. Top 10 facts related to the event: 1. Delay in schedule announcement: The reason is that the BCCI waited on two crucial issues: a. Confirmation of polling dates in multiple states like Tamil Nadu, West Bengal, and Assam. The clash with the election dates is not a new feature for the IPL. b. Final decision from two franchises (Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers Bengaluru) on their home venues. Rajasthan Royals were facing uncertainty over the use of Jaipurs Sawai Mansingh Stadium, due to unresolved administrative issues within the Rajasthan Cricket Association. Royal Challengers Bengaluru, the defending champions, although received conditional clearance from the Karnataka government to use the M Chinnaswamy Stadium (following a tragic stampede at last years victory celebration that left 11 fans dead), the final approval was awaited. Accordingly, the BCCI decided not to announce the full fixture list until polling timelines are clear. They unveiled the first phase of the IPL 2026 calendar. Interestingly, at the time of the announcement of this schedule for the Phase 1 matches, the election dates were not known, but when the election (and counting) dates were announced by the EC, it was found that none of the match dates clashed with the election dates. Did the BCCI already know the election schedule? 3. Few non-team base, IPL venues have very interesting connections: Raipur, Chhattisgarh: IPL returns to this venue (6 matches played between 2013 and 2016) as BCCI Treasurer Prabhtej Singh Bhatia is from the state. Interestingly, Raipur was home for Delhi Capitals earlier, and now its a home for RCB for two games. The distance between Raipur and the teams home city, Bangalore, is approximately 1013 km by air (flight time roughly 2 hours) and approximately 1300 km by road (over 24 hours drive). Vizag: One of the DC owners is from the city, and political influence is there, and the city gets two DC home games. So far, 17 IPL matches have been played at the venue and some were non-DC matches. The distance between Vizag and the team's home city Delhi is approximately 1360 km by air (flight time roughly 2 hours) and approximately 1815 km by road (over 30 hours drive). Guwahati: City of BCCI Secretary Devajit Saikia, one RR co-owner and gets three RR big home games. So far 6 IPL matches have been played at the venue. The distance between Guwahati and the team's home city, Jaipur, is approximately 1500 km by air (flight time roughly 3+ hours) and approximately 1550 km by road (over 38 hours drive). 4. RCB plays five of its home games at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium after having got the nod to play at the venue. The IPL opening match, one playoff match and the final will also be held at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium. An elated KSCA President and former Test pacer Venktesh Prasad said, Great to have the IPL back at this iconic venue. It is a great achievement for us at the KSCA to make this happen in the span of just two and a half months. This is a bigger achievement than my five-wicket haul against England (Lords, 1996). 5. Shift from normal schedule: Usually, the champion and runner-up venues are given for the next seasons IPL playoffs and final, which in this case would be New Chandigarh and Bengaluru. The New Chandigarh stadium (the home ground of PBKS), is scheduled to host an Afghanistan Test, immediately after the IPL, hence they missed this years important matches. 6. Opening match of the season: Starting from 2008 till now, a total of 15 different teams have played in the IPL. During all these years, the opening match of the IPL has never happened without at least one of these four teams: MI, CSK, KKR and RCB. However, for the first time, neither Mumbai Indians nor Chennai Super Kings are playing the first game of the IPL season, in 2 consecutive editions:. 2025 KKR vs RCB 2026- RCB vs SRH 7. The schedule of the first three matches of this season is very interesting: Match 1 on 28 March: RCB v SRH repeat of the 2016 final. The last time SRH and RCB played the IPL season opener was on 5th April 2017. Match 2 on 29 March: MI v KKR - 5-time champions v 3-time champions Match 3 on 30 March: RR v CSK repeat of 1st ever IPL final 8. The Big three: Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and MS Dhoni will be in action in the first three matches. 9. Title sponsor: Tata Group, under a 5-year contract (20242028) for Rs. 2500 crore (US$300 million). 10. Broadcaster: JioStar's Star Sports and JioHotstar as they hold the satellite and digital broadcasting rights for the period 20232027 cycle respectively. Also Read: Live Cricket Score The sheer number of absences leading into the IPL this year is also unprecedented. It appears that the teams are scrambling for replacements rather than getting their squads settled.
