IPL 2026: Pandya, Boult Return As MI Opt To Bowl In Rain-shortened Match Vs RR
Skipper Hardik Pandya: Skipper Hardik Pandya returned to the side as the Mumbai Indians elected to bowl first against the Rajasthan Royals in a rain-shortened 11-overs-a-side Match 13 in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 at the ACA Stadium in Guwahati on Tuesday. The match is set to start around two and a half hours after the scheduled start of 7.30 pm because of rain that lashed the city since early afternoon. It will be an 11-overs-per-side match with the Power-play reduced to 3.2 overs or 20 balls. In each innings, four bowlers can bowl a maximum of two overs each, with one bowler allowed to bowl a maximum of three overs. There will be a 10-minute break between innings.

IPL 2026: Shubman Gill To Play In GT's Clash Against DC, Confirms Sai Sudharsan
Arun Jaitley Stadium: Gujarat Titans (GT) captain Shubman Gill will be available for the team's upcoming IPL 2026 against Delhi Capitals (DC), to be played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Wednesday, confirmed his opening partner B Sai Sudharsan. Gill missed GTs clash against Rajasthan Royals, which they lost by six runs in Ahmedabad, due to a muscle spasm. Shubman has no problem. He is completely fine, he will be fine. Of course, yes (he will open), said Sudharsan in the pre-match press conference. Gill's availability comes as a major boost for IPL 2022 winners GT, who are yet to open their account in the ongoing tournament after consecutive defeats. Sudharsan, however, expressed confidence in the team's ability to bounce back, especially in their middle order batters. I think it is a mixture of both - as opening batters and top three batters, if someone plays longer, it is always a great thing for the team. I think we believe in our middle order, they will (come good). This is the team which you know in which we played last year and we qualified. So it is just two games and I believe and the whole team believes that we will definitely have a great middle order and win games. IPL is such a tournament where in two-three days when you keep on playing matches, momentum is one of the important things in the tournament. Yes, we look back on these 2 games and we have learnt a lot for sure and I think we will look forward to doing that, so that we get our first win and get the momentum back, he said. Left-handed opener Sudharsan has made 86 runs in two games so far and was the leading run-getter in IPL 2025. He further stated that he is always working hard to evolve his batting as per the fast-growing demands of T20 cricket. I think I do not look at it as a different tournament. Wherever I play, whatever matches I play, the preparation is very similar and the effort or the hard work behind it is very similar. I am just grateful and lucky enough to execute it here. Definitely as the sport is evolving and the T20 batting is getting greater and greater every season or even every 5-6 months if you can see, it is very important for me to learn from it and be versatile enough to have that in my kitty and equip myself with that. So definitely there are improvements to be made and of course, I am looking at it. Sudharsan also shed light on his mental preparation routine, which he said plays a decisive role in his performances. In most of the part is mental preparation, I think once the pre-season camp is over, I think it is all about fine tuning and having your thoughts clear and having your mind sorted and organised is the biggest thing. I put a lot of time on that - I do yoga, meditation, and visualisation to keep myself mentally fit. Elaborating on GTs batting approach at the top of the order, Sudharsan stressed on reading conditions and building a platform rather than going all guns blazing from the word go. It is important to understand what is required on this wicket to do and then what is required for our team to have a very good start so that our middle order or the lower order have a very good platform to launch in the last four-five overs. Sudharsan also shed light on his mental preparation routine, which he said plays a decisive role in his performances.

Top 5 Youngsters Who Stole The Spotlight In IPL 2026 So Far
The ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 has so far belonged to a fearless new generation of cricketers who have made an immediate impact with bat, ball and in the field. In just the first 11 matches of the season, several young stars have stepped into the spotlight, underlining the leagues growing reputation as a platform where emerging talent thrives under pressure. Among the standout performers are Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, Sameer Rizvi, Angkrish Raghuvanshi, Prince Yadav and Harsh Dubey, all of whom have played crucial roles for their respective franchises with performances that are ahead of their age and experience. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi: The teenage sensation from Bihar has continued his meteoric rise after impressing in age-group and domestic cricket. Carrying his form from recent international youth tournaments into the IPL, he has amassed 252 runs in just seven matches at a staggering strike rate of over 200. His campaign in IPL 2026 began with a blistering 15-ball half-century against Chennai Super Kings (CSK), followed by another explosive innings against Gujarat Titans, setting the tone for the Rajasthan Royals strong start. Sameer Rizvi: Rizvi, who first made headlines in the UP T20 League, has scripted a remarkable comeback after a quiet stint in IPL 2024. Picked up by Delhi Capitals (DC) in the mega auction, the middle-order batter has seized his opportunities this season with back-to-back match-winning performances under pressure. Despite not being a regular starter initially, his consistency has now cemented his place in the playing XI. He scored 70 runs against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in the team's first match and then played a match winning 90 runs knock against the Mumbai Indians. Angkrish Raghuvanshi: For Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), Raghuvanshi has emerged as a bright spark in an otherwise mixed start to the season. The Mumbai youngster has impressed with successive half-centuries at the top of the order and has also taken on wicketkeeping responsibilities, highlighting the team managements confidence in his all-round abilities.

Heinrich Klaasen Praises Ishan Kishans Captaincy as SRH Eye Momentum in IPL 2026
Sunrisers Hyderabad big-hitting batter Heinrich Klaasen has lavished praise on skipper Ishan Kishan, calling him a superb captain and adding the way the side responds to the young wicketkeeper-batter has been just phenomenal, apart from his calmness in decision making and willingness to lean on experienced players in the set-up. Kishan was named as SRHs interim captain due to regular skipper Pat Cummins being unavailable for the initial part owing to his recovery from a lumbar stress issue. Under him, SRH have won one match while losing two games and are at fifth place on the points table. Look, I think he's been superb so far. He's a guy who does ask for advice. Like I said, we've got a lot of experience in the change room. So he leans on that as well. But his decision-making, the way he changes the bowlers, the way the team listens to him is just phenomenal so far. So like I said, we're in superb hands, and he's luckily not an arrogant guy at all, which makes it a lot easier. He's a really enjoyable captain to play under. So there's a lot of jokes in between to make it not so serious, because I think this environment can really be a tough environment to play under. I think he's been superb, and he had some success in the domestic scene as well. I think his domestic team won a competition (Jharkhand won Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy under his captaincy). So there's a lot of experience in that aspect. But so far, I really do enjoy his captaincy, and he's been incredible so far, said Klaasen, while replying to a query from IANS in the JioStar Press Room ahead of IPL 2026 Rivalry Week. Despite SRH losing two games this season, Klaasen said his own form 145 runs in three games, including two half-centuries - have given him personal satisfaction, particularly given his limited game time after retiring from international cricket and playing only franchise T20 leagues. Unfortunately, we've lost two games. But on a personal note, it's been a good start, especially because one of my biggest concerns is not playing as much cricket as I used to. Also, it's to see if I can still keep up with the standard that I set myself with. So, pretty good start for me, and hopefully this form will continue, he said. After playing against Punjab Kings in New Chandigarh, 2016 IPL champions SRH will play three games on the trot at their home venue against Rajasthan Royals, Chennai Super Kings and Delhi Capitals. The clash against CSK, the five-time champions who are yet to get off the mark in the points table, will be of huge interest and Klaasen acknowledged the fixture carries added significance. Look, it's always fun playing against them, and knowing that our owners are also coming from Chennai, they do put an emphasis on that we need to win over them or beat them. So there will always be added pressure on that game, but it's still a good game. All the teams that you have to play in the IPL, you have to be at your best and put your best performance in the game. So hopefully we can get that little bit of momentum going into the next game and then face Chennai back home. The wicket hopefully will be a little bit better, and then if we can get one over them going into their home ground, I think we should be in a good position to take them down this season, he elaborated. Klaasen also talked about the tactical challenge of facing spinners from opposition teams who have clearly studied his game closely. The boundaries are not the biggest in the world. We're used to some big boundaries as well. But the wickets are fantastic. So, it's a nice place to come back in. But it's still a big challenge. I know they're coming for me and they know I'm coming for them. I see this season they've got a couple of game plans. So, I need to get back on to doing some good homework against them and finding new ways of scoring against them, he said. On the toughest spinner hes faced in his IPL career, Klaasen named senior leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal without any hesitation. It's an easy answer Yuzi Chahal. We've come a long way. We've had some great battles over the last couple of years, especially in my career. He's a quality bowler, a very clever bowler. I think we're about 50-50 on winning those battles. He's a good mate of mine as well, so it makes it even better just to fight against him on the pitch, he said. The hard-hitting batter signed off by calling the IPL the pinnacle competition in franchise T20 cricket. It's by far the toughest franchise cricket competition that there is. I feel sometimes it's tougher than international cricket. It also depends on who you play. But the standard of cricket and obviously the conditions play a big part of it. Every year you just see a new Indian player coming out that you never know about, and you just keep on producing the goods. So the talent that they've got, it just sets the standard so high.

IPL 2026: 'Coming Back To RCB Was Turning Point Of My Career,' Says Padikkal
Royal Challengers Bangalore: Indian cricketer Devdutt Padikkal has admitted that returning to Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 proved to be a turning point in his career, as it gave him clarity about the kind of cricket he wanted to play. In 2025, Padikkal played a crucial role at the top of the order for RCB, scoring 247 runs in 10 matches at an impressive strike rate of 150.61. In 2026, he scored 111 runs in just two games at a strike rate of 201.82. I feel that auction was probably the turning point of my career in a lot of ways. I was at that stage of my career where I needed to really commit to the type of cricket I want to play, the kind of cricketer I wanted to be. And coming back to RCB paved my path towards the brand of cricket I wanted to play, Padikkal said in a video released by RCB on X.

IPL 2026: Top Order In Focus As DC Eye Hat-trick Of Victories Over Winless GT (Preview)
Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy: Delhi Capitals will hope their misfiring top order finally fires as they chase their third straight win of IPL 2026 against a winless Gujarat Titans at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Wednesday. GT leads the head-to-head record 4-3 and have won two out of three matches in New Delhi, including chasing down 200 last year. DC have been clinical in both wins - chasing targets with 17 and 11 balls to spare. But those margins have papered over a persistent crack at the top. KL Rahul, Pathum Nissanka and Nitish Rana have averaged a combined 10.2, leaving the heavy lifting to a middle order that has, so far, answered every call. Against a GT bowling attack desperate to find rhythm, DC's top three cannot afford another meltdown. Rahul has been dismissed in the first over in both outings this season, though memories of his magnificent 112 against GT at this venue last year should help him negotiate the new ball more confidently. Nissanka showed promise with 44 against MI, while Rana needs to break free from his modest returns. Amid the top order's struggles, Sameer Rizvi has been DC's standout performer, single-handedly changing the complexion of both chases via 90 against MI and an unbeaten 70 against Lucknow Super Giants. What makes him particularly dangerous is his ability to shift gears - against LSG he made 12 runs from his first 15 balls before exploding to hit 58 runs off the next 32 deliveries. Against MI, Rizvi was at nine runs from 15 balls before blasting 81 runs off his next 36 deliveries. He leads the tournaments six-hitting charts with 11 maximums and strikes at 207 against spin. His duel with Rashid Khan, whos shown glimpses of returning to his best, will be one of the match's key subplots. DC's bowling has been equally disciplined. Pacers have set the tone in the powerplay before spinners applied the squeeze in middle overs, while Lungi Ngidi and T Natarajan have been effective at the back end with slower ball variations. GT arrive on the back of consecutive defeats and remain heavily reliant on their top three - captain Shubman Gill, B Sai Sudharsan and Jos Buttler. That dependence is stark: since IPL 2025, GT have won eight of 12 matches when one of the top-order bats beyond 15 overs, but just one of five when all three fall early. Gill's availability is uncertain after he missed the last game with a muscle spasm, increasing the load on Sudharsan and Buttler. Sudharsan, the tournament's leading run-scorer since 2025, has thrived at this venue with scores of 108 not out, 65 and 62 not out. Buttler has found starts but not converted into a big score and his vulnerability against left-arm spin sets up a telling face-off with DC skipper Axar Patel. GT's middle order of Glenn Phillips, Washington Sundar, Shahrukh Khan and Rahul Tewatia will need to step up with a big performance if the top three fall early. GT's bowling has its own concerns. They conceded 69 runs in the powerplay against Rajasthan Royals, and they cannot afford a repeat against a DC top-order, despite their frailties, has the firepower to punish wayward bowling. Mohammed Siraj has managed just one wicket this season and needs to rediscover his sharpness alongside Kagiso Rabada. Prasidh Krishna, IPL 2025's leading wicket-taker, has carried his form forward with four wickets already. Young pacer Ashok Sharma has been expensive but brings genuine variety, having clocked the fastest delivery in IPL 2026 so far. The decision to not use Washington Sundar's off-spin against RR puzzled observers. Washington, capable of bowling with the new ball, has bowled just 19 overs since IPL 2024 - picking four wickets at 11.1 per over - and his underuse remains an unexplained puzzle. Left-arm spinner R Sai Kishore is an option, though a poor Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy campaign doesn't strengthen his case. Chasing teams have won six of seven T20s at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in 2026, making the toss potentially significant, with a yellow alert for rain adding another variable. For DC, the objective is clear - get the top order firing, and complete a hat-trick of wins by outclassing GT, whose margins for making errors are running thin.

But it might not be enough for the bowling side, because shorter boundaries and a fast outfield make it tough.

IPL 2026: Hardik Pandya Available For MIs Clash Against RR In Guwahati, Says Mhambrey
Arun Jaitley Stadium: Mumbai Indians (MI) bowling coach Paras Mhambrey has confirmed that skipper Hardik Pandya will be available for the teams upcoming IPL 2026 game against Rajasthan Royals, to be played at ACA Stadium on Tuesday. Pandya had missed the previous match against Delhi Capitals at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi, which they lost by six wickets, due to illness. He then returned to the MI nets in Guwahati on Sunday night, where he bowled and batted in fine rhythm. He will be available. He had a good couple of hours of net sessions yesterday, so he is fit and fine. He wasn't injured, he was unwell, that's the reason he missed the game, said Mhambrey in the pre-match press conference. Pandyas absence in the last game forced MI to tweak their combination, with South African all-rounder Corbin Bosch coming in for Trent Boult, while Deepak Chahar came into the side as well. Well, I think that is something that you will have to take care of. Injuries are something that you can't control. But I think we got the team, we got enough guys out there to mix and match, and looking at the surface combinations, but I think we got enough guys to kind of look around. I think it was just a combination change. Obviously, Hardik gives you the option of a bat and a bowler the all-rounder. Since he wasn't available, we needed a kind of replacement who could fill in that role for us. It is purely a tactical decision that we went with, added Mhambrey. MI are set to play an IPL game for the first time in Guwahati, and one battle which everyone will be keen to see is how RR batters Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, Yashasvi Jaiswal, and Dhruv Jurel fare against ace pacer Jasprit Bumrah. Mhambrey highlighted Bumrahs unique qualities, especially his ability to outthink batters. I think it was just a combination change. Obviously, Hardik gives you the option of a bat and a bowler the all-rounder. Since he wasn't available, we needed a kind of replacement who could fill in that role for us. It is purely a tactical decision that we went with, added Mhambrey. Also Read: Live Cricket Score Classic example was the England game. The first ball he bowled - no one could have expected a slower one. So I think the ability to anticipate what the batters are thinking and to be able to present a kind of an option that, as a batter, you are not expecting. I think that's his USP - I would say that, he concluded. Article Source: IANS

IPL 2026: When And Where To Watch RR Vs MI, Know All Details
Indian Premier League: Buoyed by their early success, Rajasthan Royals, winner of the inaugural edition in 2008, will face five-time champions Mumbai Indians in the 13th Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 match at Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati on Tuesday. RR have started their campaign strongly, securing wins in their first two matches. They opened with a commanding victory over the Chennai Super Kings and later achieved a narrow six-run victory against the Gujarat Titans in Ahmedabad. The former champions possess a powerful batting lineup, featuring an aggressive opening pair in Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and Yashasvi Jaiswal. Additionally, skipper Riyan Parag and Dhruv Jurel provide support in the middle order. Their quick bowlers, led by Jofra Archer and Nandre Burger, have also performed well with the new ball. Mumbai Indians, meanwhile, head into the match after a setback against Delhi Capitals. The five-time champions have had a mixed start, securing a win over Kolkata Knight Riders but struggling with consistency overall. Currently placed sixth in the table, MI will be eager to bounce back, with captain Hardik Pandya likely to return to the playing XI. The addition of Mitchell Santner strengthens their spin department and provides better balance, enabling the side to field a three-pronged Indian pace attack alongside Trent Boult. On paper, both teams appear evenly matched, setting the stage for a competitive clash in Guwahati. While Rajasthan will aim to extend their winning run and cement their status as early contenders, Mumbai will be eager to regroup and get their campaign back on track.

IPL 2026 Preview: Evaluating the Potential of Prashant Veer and Kartik Sharma
As we build up to the 2026 edition of the Indian Premier League, we will have a look at key personnel changes and how the teams shape up ahead of the season. In this analytical preview, Eoin Morgan - Chief Cricket Analyst, Parimatch, and Jonty Rhodes- Key Cricket Analyst, Parimatch, two of the game’s most respected cricket minds - deliver a comprehensive breakdown of the makeup of the 10 IPL teams. The Rs 28 Crore Question: Are These Kids Ready Prashant Veer (R) and Kartik Sharma (C) with Rahul Chahar (L) in CSK pre-season camp The Indian Premier League mini-auction once again brought out many surprises, but none more than Chennai Super Kings splurging over Rs. 28 Crores on two unknown commodities, Kartik Sharma and Prashant Veer. Eoin Morgan’s Scouting Report With MS Dhoni approaching the end of his career and Ravindra Jadeja traded to Rajasthan Royals along with Sam Curran in exchange for the prized asset of Sanju Samson, Chennai Super Kings entered the mini-auction with a clear plan of strengthening the middle order. By acquiring the duo for Rs. 14.2 Crores each, the Super Kings set the record for the most amount of money paid to an uncapped player, that too twice in the same auction. The mini-auction also saw Aquib Nabi’s efforts get a fair reward as he became the third costliest uncapped buy in the IPL auction history. Prashant Veer In the 2025-26 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, Prashant Veer made a name for himself whilst representing Uttar Pradesh as the left-arm all-rounder, picking 9 wickets in 7 matches at an average of 18.77, while also bowling at an excellent economy rate of 6.76. With the bat in hand, the left-hander scored 112 runs at a strike rate of 170, which proves that he doesn’t need a lot of balls to settle in before firing off the big shots. Before the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, Veer also made a name for himself while playing for Noida Super Kings in the UP T20 League. While his numbers may seem ordinary, Veer’s fitness and temperament in crucial situations have made him stand out from his other colleagues, and which is probably why the CSK management decided to take a punt on him in order to find the next Ravindra Jadeja. Kartik Sharma Kartik Sharma is a talent that we will be seeing more and more of in the coming years, as the youngster started impressing early on in age-group tournaments like Vijay Merchant Trophy and Vinoo Mankad Trophy. Despite impressing at an early age, Kartik missed the bus for the 2024 ICC U-19 World Cup due to the sheer number of talents India has been producing in the last few years and also couldn’t make it to the 2025 IPL mega-auction. But, Kartik’s Ranji Trophy debut for Rajasthan against Uttarakhand was phenomenal as he smashed 113 runs off 115 balls, and then went on to score a century on his List A Debut as well in the Vijay Hazare Trophy. Averaging 40+ in his maiden Ranji Trophy season and 50+ in his maiden Vijay Hazare Trophy season at a strike rate of 118 makes Kartik one of the most exciting wicket-keeper batters going around in the country. Still in his teenage years, Kartik is a promising middle-order batter whose strokeplay has amused one and all across the cricketing world and the batter could be a long-term replacement for MS Dhoni who is approaching the fag end of his IPL career. As seen in IPL 2025, experienced players like Rishabh Pant and Venkatesh Iyer also crumbled under the pressure created by the amount they were getting paid for the league season, so it would be a huge challenge for these two young players to ignore the ‘Big Money Label’ and focus purely on the cricketing side of things. Jonty Rhodes weighs in on spotting raw domestic talent I feel it is very important to nurture talent from a young age. I grew up in the 1970s and there was not a lot of coaching around at that time in cricket, especially for fielding, so we had to learn from our own mistakes on the field. I personally always wanted to give my best on the field and I learnt this quality from playing other sports like football, hockey, and tennis, and from my father who was a rugby player and did a lot for primary school sports back in South Africa. These days, fielding has emerged as the third pillar of the game and we need to instill the correct values and attitude in the players from a young age, because skills can be taught but the right attitude must be instilled and spotted from an early age. While teams like CSK have now understood the importance of nurturing young talent and publicly acknowledged and acted upon the fact that they need to bring in more young talent. Last season, we witnessed the Super Kings bringing in Ayush Mhatre, Dewald Brevis, and Urvil Patel and they have picked two more potential young stars in the mini-auction. The crucial thing in grooming youngsters is allowing them the freedom to fail, as we previously seen multiple times at Mumbai Indians, they have allowed a space for their young talent to flourish with the likes of Hardik Pandya, Jasprit Bumrah, Tilak Varma, and Ishan Kishan coming through at the franchise. Now, it’s upon these young players coming through to show a commitment to growth with the correct attitude and spread more positive energy and display more athleticism, not only in competitive matches, but also on the training grounds and in the simulation matches.

Not Easy Being A Skipper, Riyan Deserves Credit For His Amazing Captaincy Against GT: Bangar
Narendra Modi Stadium: Former India cricketer Sanjay Bangar heaped praise on Rajasthan Royals skipper Riyan Parag for his composure and decision-making in a tense finish against the Gujarat Titans on Saturday, highlighting how leadership played a defining role in their six-run win. In a match that went down to the final over at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Rajasthans decision to hand the ball to Tushar Deshpande proved decisive, with the pacer defending 11 runs under pressure. Bangar underlined that the foundation of the win lay in Parags captaincy during crunch moments. With multiple bowling choices available, the RR skipper's clarity stood out as he backed Deshpande for the final over, a decision that ultimately sealed the game. Riyan Parag deserves the credit for his amazing captaincy in this match against GT. It is not an easy job being a skipper, especially when you have tons of bowling options to choose from and you find yourself in a high-pressure situation. Riyan clearly trusted Tushar Deshpande to bowl the final over and when a captain chooses you to bowl an over that's a do-or-die one, then you have to do well. If you don't, your team will lose, Bangar told JioStar. Bangar stressed that beyond tactics, a captains role is also about instilling belief in players during high-stakes situations. It is important for the skipper to motivate the bowler when asking him to do such a tough job. You have to constantly tell them that you can do it, and Tushar Deshpande lived upto the expectations by soaking in all the pressure and bowled the best over of his cricket career, he said. Deshpande responded with an ice-cool over, conceding just four runs and dismissing Rashid Khan at a crucial juncture to swing the match decisively in Rajasthans favour. Bangar also highlighted the long-term impact of such trust between captain and bowler, saying, Once you get that kind of trust and faith from your skipper, it is a wonderful feeling. Every time Rajasthan finds themselves in a nail-biting situation, Riyan Parag will go towards Tushar Deshpande because he has done it once and can do it again. He summed up the moment as a perfect blend of leadership and execution, stating, So brilliant from the captain, great execution from the bowler. The celebration at the end tells us how hungry RR was for this win. Apart from the final over heroics, Bangar also reserved praise for leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi, who turned the game with a four-wicket haul to derail Gujarats chase. Bishnois control and discipline made it difficult for batters to settle, even without a wide range of variations. Explaining Bishnois effectiveness, Bangar pointed out his unique bowling approach.

GT Will Rue Lost Opportunities When Playoff Race Heats Up: Steyn
After Gujarat Titans: After Gujarat Titans' narrow loss to Rajasthan Royals in a final-over thriller, former South African pacer Dale Steyn believes that when the playoffs race heats up, GT would look back at this game and regret missed opportunities. A dramatic final over from pacer Tushar Deshpande helped Rajasthan Royals clinch a thrilling six-run win over Gujarat Titans in a nail-biting encounter in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Saturday. After opting to bat first, Rajasthan posted a competitive 210/6 in 20 overs, riding on fine half-centuries from Dhruv Jurel and Yashasvi Jaiswal. Gujarats chase was spearheaded by a brilliant knock from Sai Sudharsan, but despite a late surge from Rashid Khan and Kagiso Rabada, the hosts fell agonisingly short. This match between GT and RR is easily the best game of IPL 2026, Steyn remarked, drawing attention to the high stakes and intense drama that unfolded throughout the evening. He added that the Gujarat Titans, after a strong start, While Rajasthan came out on top, it wasnt for a lack of effort from Gujarat. The Titans, chasing a challenging 211, were well-placed at various stages, especially with Sai Sudharsans superb 73 and a late counter-attack from Rashid Khan and Kagiso Rabada. However, Steyn pointed out that Gujarats inability to capitalise on those moments was ultimately their downfall. In the latter half of the season, when the playoff spots will be decided, GT will look at this match and wonder how many opportunities they had to win it. But they did not capitalise and let the match slip away, Steyn said, underscoring the importance of seizing crucial moments in tight matches like these. RR are going to be really happy with this win. Their last victory against CSK, they did not have to work hard to secure it. But here against GT, the match went down to the final over and RR were forced to do everything they could to seal the win, Steyn explained, emphasising that the teams resolve had been tested to the maximum. This shift in mentality, according to Steyn, is crucial for Rajasthan as they move forward in the tournament. Last season, Rajasthan had a heartbreaker of an IPL season. They lost matches by small margins. They missed out on golden opportunities to seal the win. They could not convert the chances into victories. But this season, RR is looking like a different team. A side that is determined to try every trick up their sleeve to ensure they don't go empty-handed without sealing the win. However, the game-changing moment came in the final over, when Rajasthan captain Riyan Parag entrusted Tushar Deshpande with the responsibility of defending 11 runs. Steyn was full of admiration for the pacers composure and execution under extreme pressure. The final over bowled by Tushar Deshpande was exceptional. He executed his Yorkers perfectly under pressure, did not give any chances to a player like Rashid Khan to find the boundary and he ensured his team did not suffer any hiccups in the final over of a 200-plus run chase, Steyn said. Steyn went on to acknowledge that the performance would likely boost Deshpandes profile for a potential call-up to the senior Indian team and that the ability to handle pressure and execute plans perfectly in such moments is a rare quality in cricketers.

Wonderful display of game sense. Tushar Deshpande bowled in a fearless manner and this bowling performance will ensure that the Indian selectors don't take their eyes off him this IPL season.

'Losing Quick Wickets, Bowlers Lacked Rhythm': Hayden Dissects GT's Narrow Loss To RR
Kolkata Knight Riders: Gujarat Titans batting coach Matthew Hayden believes a sudden flurry of wickets turned a certain victory into a heartbreaking loss against the Rajasthan Royals. Chasing a target of 211, GT were well-placed at many points. After ten overs, they were 103 for 1. But then Ravi Bishnoi changed the game as the hosts went from 107 for 1 in the 11th over to 161/7 in the 15th. In the final few overs, Rashid Khan (24), who stepped in to lead the side after skipper Shubman Gill missed the game due to a muscle spasm, and Kagiso Rabada (23) almost pulled off a run-chase with their cameos, however, it wasnt enough as GT fell short by just six runs. I think we lost four for ten in that period. The game was absolutely in the bag. Washi Sundar had a pretty big decision to make at that point around if youre going to attack someone like Bishnoi, who was on a roll, especially after the dismissal. That was maybe a choice that he can look at and will look at as well in terms of just trying to be a little bit more cohesive in our run chases, because it has to be said there wasnt a lot that went wrong in those first 12 overs. There was plenty of great stuff, Hayden said at the press conference after the game. The run out was something that, again, was a decision which Shahrukh and Rashid had to make at the time. I havent broken down that play because as a coach you tend to kind of look at the ball, but Ill be interested also to see the approach when we get back to vision of how that run was executed. It certainly looked from the sideline that Jaddu bumped the ball quite a long way away from him and to regather, as we know, hes so quick and hes so good at getting and releasing the ball, he added. But there's two wickets straightaway that would have been the difference. Again, we're talking about six runs. So those little things in T20 cricket, when you're chasing down a big total, which we were, they become vital in the decision-making process of a batting unit. Earlier, bowling first, Rabada picked up two wickets, while Mohammed Siraj, Ashok Sharma, Prasidh Krishna andRashid chipped in with one scalp each to restrict the Rajasthan Royals to 210/6. Hayden, however, admitted that key bowlers like Mohammed Siraj, Rabada and Rashid little bit off their rhythm. I felt like a lot of our bowlers were just a little bit off their rhythm and their line in particular. KG Rabada's figures, I think, were a bit more expensive than perhaps what he bowled today. I thought he was actually pretty good and same too with Rashid. Siraj had an off day, simple as that. When we reviewed his pitch map, he was a little bit too short, a little bit too wide, and that's just a great bowler just having an off day. Whereas I thought Rashid actually could have had a much better day. It could have been a couple more wickets in the wicket column and so too with KG Rabada as well. Hayden, however, admitted that key bowlers like Mohammed Siraj, Rabada and Rashid little bit off their rhythm. I felt like a lot of our bowlers were just a little bit off their rhythm and their line in particular. KG Rabada's figures, I think, were a bit more expensive than perhaps what he bowled today.
