Gujarat Titans skipper Shubman Gill has recovered from the muscle spasm that forced him to miss the previous game and will take the field against Delhi Capitals in the IPL here on Wednesday. Gill's opening partner Sai Sudharsan confirmed that the former is fit to play. "He is absolutely fine and will play," said Sudharsan on the eve of the game. Titans have been tagged as a top heavy batting side. The middle order in the last game was unable to do the job after the launch pad provided by Sudharsan. The left-hander said the team firmly believes in the middle order comprising Washington Sundar and Glenn Phillips. "If someone from the top three batters plays longer, it's always a great thing for the team. We believe in our middle order. This is the team which played last year and we qualified. So it's just two games and I and the whole team believes that our middle order will win games," he said. The way T20 cricket is going, Sudharsan feels one has to evolve as a batter every six .
Delhi Capitals have won their first two games without Mitchell Starc but bowling coach Munaf Patel wants his pace spearhead to link up with the squad at the earliest as there is "no bigger bowler than him in the IPL". With what Starc brings to the table, former India pacer Munaf said the Australian can only be compared to Jasprit Bumrah. Starc is yet to get the NOC from Cricket Australia and is nursing a shoulder injury. Speaking to reporters ahead of the game against Gujarat Titans, Munaf said he is asking about Starc's arrival on a daily basis. "We have won two games so it has not been felt," Munai said on a lighter note. "If we don't do well, it depends. He is one of the best in the world. There is no bigger bowler in the IPL than Starc. Bumrah is the only one I can think of. He has so much experience, he swings at 140kmph plus with the new ball. I follow up with the team every day. Cricket Australia will update us. We need him as our main bowler," said Munaf. At DC, Munaf is

Royal Challengers Bengaluru mentor Dinesh Karthik believes it will be difficult to keep Devdutt Padikkal out of the Indian team for long, given the manner in which he is batting in the IPL following stellar domestic performances. Padikkal starred in RCB's big win against Chennai Super Kings on Sunday, scoring a blistering 50 off 29 balls. Asked about Padikkal's composed knock at the Chinnaswamy Stadium, Karthik, who is also RCB's batting coach, highlighted his composure during a tough initial phase before opening up. "The first thing that stands out is his determination. On a pitch like this, when runs don't come easily at the start, many batters try to force a big shot and end up giving their wicket away. Devdutt showed great courage to stay patient when the going was tough," Karthik told Star Sports. "Once he got that first boundary, you could see him switch gears. He's playing proper cricketing shots and hitting the ball with distance. If he continues batting like this, it will
Dashing former Proteas batter Henrich Klaasen feels it is still early days in the tournament for the Sunrisers Hyderabad and is confident that the 2016 IPL champions will fire in all departments going forward after two defeats in their first three games. SRH lost to Royal Challengers Bengaluru by 6 wickets in their opener and then were humbled by 5 wickets by Lucknow Super Giants in their last game. Their only win -- 65-run victory -- came against Kolkata Knight Riders. "Our batting has been good so far, but we missed out about 40 runs in 3 games. We need to bat better. The two games that we struggled, we didn't execute with the bat. The bowlers, especially the pacers have been fantastic. We need to get to 220-230 mark to give our bowlers chance of defending," Klaasen told JioStar Press Room. "Our fielding has been poor and that's what is affecting us. I will give us 6 out of 10 so far, we played some brilliant cricket in phases but lost out in the crucial phases of the game. "Bowl
A few years back, Najafgarh-based Railway Protection Force's ASI Ram Niwas Yadav was extremely worried about the future of his youngest son Prince, who was only interested in bowling yorkers at tennis ball tournaments. However, the youngster was unruffled and told his father straight up, "Papa aap mera chinta karna chhod dijiye. Main apne se kuch kar loonga (Dad stop worrying about me. I would manage something on my own)." Cut to 2026 and the seemingly nonchalant boy has managed to come good on the promise. The Lucknow Super Giants swing sensation has already breached the defences of experienced India internationals such as Axar Patel and Ishan Kishan in successive IPL games. "Any father would be worried about the future of his kids and so was I. Till the age of 18, he had not even bowled once with the leather ball. I literally forced him to appear for the Delhi Police's Constables' Exam and he was fit enough to clear the physical round. "But he wasn't well prepared for written tes

Delhi Capitals pacer Kyle Jamieson on Monday joined a growing chorus of players criticising the IPL's controversial Impact Player rule, saying it "takes a lot of the skill out of the game. Several current and former cricketers have voiced concerns over the rule, which allows teams to substitute a player from a list of five at any point during a match. While some argue it hampers the development of all-rounders, others feel it has tilted the balance in favour of batters as teams can now attack throughout 20 overs with the cushion of having an extra willow wielder at number eight. "Personally, I'm not a fan of it. I think it takes a lot of the skill out of the game," Jamieson said in a select media interaction ahead Delhi Capitals game against Gujarat Titans. "I think if you can bat 9 or 10, you don't have to have the same sort of batsmanship that you probably once had to have," he added. Introduced in 2023, the rule is set to remain in place until 2027. Jamieson stressed that the
