Sunrisers Hyderabad secured a playoff spot with a win over Chennai Super Kings, propelled by Ishan Kishan and Heinrich Klaasen.

Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan of Gujarat Titans achieved a significant IPL milestone, registering their ninth century opening partnership.

The duo also matched the record for most opening wicket century stands with six.

Chennai Super Kings were eliminated from IPL 2026 after suffering their biggest-ever defeat, a crushing 89-run loss to Gujarat Titans. Gujarat Titan's dominant batting and Mohammed Siraj's fiery bowling consolidated their second spot in the IPL 2026 playoffs, while CSK's campaign ended in record disappointment.

Krunal Pandya continues to be a vital all-rounder for RCB in their IPL 2026 title defence, recently scoring a match-winning 73 despite severe cramps against Mumbai Indians. He also achieved his 100th IPL wicket and draws inspiration from Virat Kohli's unwavering intensity and dedication, having previously won Player of the Match in two IPL finals.

Punjab Kings opted to bowl against Royal Challengers Bengaluru in Dharamsala, with Jitesh Sharma captaining RCB in Rajat Patidar's absence. Shreyas Iyer marked his 100th captaincy game for PBKS.

Sai Sudharsan and Shubman Gill etched their names in IPL history with remarkable performances against Chennai Super Kings.

Delhi Capitals youngster Madhav Tiwari has made an impressive start to his IPL 2026 journey, delivering impactful performances in his first two matches. The 22-year-old contributed with both bat and ball in crucial wins against Punjab Kings and Rajasthan Royals. But behind Madhav’s rise is the story of a stubborn youngster who only wanted to bat before former India cricketer Amay Khurasiya pushed him towards bowling as well. Today, that decision is helping Madhav emerge as an important player for Delhi Capitals in pressure situations.

Among all batters who have faced at least 100 balls in the powerplay this season, Gaikwad has the lowest strike rate — 124.6. For comparison, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi has scored at 244.51 and Abhishek Sharma at 228.87.

Washington Sundar's astonishing, near-ground six was a highlight as Gujarat Titans defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad by 82 runs. Sundar's 50, alongside Sai Sudharsan's 61, propelled GT to 168. Kagiso Rabada and Jason Holder then starred with the ball, bowling out SRH for just 86 to secure a dominant victory.

Finn Allen's maiden IPL century, a blistering 100 off 47 balls, powered Kolkata Knight Riders to victory against Delhi Capitals. His unbeaten knock, featuring 10 sixes, saw him join KKR's elite century-makers. Allen emphasized responsible batting after early wickets, acknowledging the challenging pitch and Axar Patel's bowling.

Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan achieved a significant milestone for Gujarat Titans, registering their sixth century partnership for the opening wicket in IPL 2026. This remarkable feat against Rajasthan Royals matches the IPL record held by legendary opening pairs from Sunrisers Hyderabad. The duo's dominant performance once again provided a strong foundation for their team.

Teenage sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi's explosive 93 off 38 balls, including 10 sixes, kept Rajasthan Royals' playoff hopes alive. Former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan lauded the 15-year-old's maturity and off-side play, comparing his fear factor among bowlers to Chris Gayle's peak. Sooryavanshi is now threatening Gayle's IPL record of 59 sixes in a season.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru are without captain Rajat Patidar for their IPL 2026 clash against Punjab Kings, with Jitesh Sharma leading the side. Patidar is recovering well and is expected to return for the next match in Hyderabad. RCB currently sits atop the IPL 2026 points table.

Madhav Tiwari starred in Delhi Capitals’ thrilling win over Punjab Kings with 2/40 and an unbeaten 18 off eight balls in Dharamsala. The 22-year-old allrounder, mentored by Amay Khurasiya, impressed with his pace and composure. Once focused mainly on batting, Tiwari now dreams of becoming India’s best allrounder after a breakthrough IPL performance.

Finn Allen's explosive 93 off 35 balls powered Kolkata Knight Riders to a 29-run victory over Gujarat Titans. KKR posted their highest IPL total of 247/2, with Allen's aggressive batting reminiscent of his T20 World Cup century. Despite strong performances from Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan, GT fell short in their chase.

The wicket came in the 14th over when Shardul Thakur bowled a full delivery on the pads. Shedge tried to flick it towards short midwicket, but the ball went in the air. Raj Bawa moved quickly to his left and completed the catch with a dive, ending Shedge’s innings on 8 off 5 balls.

Finn Allen smashed an unbeaten 100 off 47 balls to help Kolkata Knight Riders beat Delhi Capitals by eight wickets in IPL 2026.

Delhi Capitals captain Axar Patel's batting woes deepened in IPL 2026, marking a new low with the second-worst captain's average in the league's history. His struggles, coupled with a dismal strike-rate, highlight a significant concern for the team amidst a challenging season. KKR's spinners effectively stifled Delhi's batting lineup, leading to a batting collapse.

Akash Singh made an immediate impact in his IPL 2026 debut for Lucknow Super Giants, taking two crucial wickets inside the powerplay. He celebrated by displaying a special paper message, which quickly went viral. The left-arm pacer dismissed CSK's Ruturaj Gaikwad and Sanju Samson, shifting momentum in LSG's favor.

Finn Allen carries the reputation of being the most destructive batter to have come out of New Zealand after Brendon McCullum. Franchise leagues covet him. A six-hitting machine, he holds the men’s T20 record for most sixes in an innings — 19 for San Francisco Unicorns in Major League Cricket.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru became IPL 2026’s strongest playoff favourites after their last-ball win over Mumbai Indians, reaching a 94.82% qualification probability and 63.41% chance of a top-two finish. SRH, GT and PBKS also remain strong contenders, while CSK revived their campaign. Rajasthan Royals and KKR still have hope, but Delhi Capitals face slim chances. Mumbai Indians and Lucknow Super Giants are officially out of playoff contention.

Finn Allen's career-defining maiden IPL century powered Kolkata Knight Riders to a dominant eight-wicket win over Delhi Capitals. Allen smashed an unbeaten 100 off 47 balls, reflecting on a mindset shift towards adaptability and responsibility after early season struggles. Time out of the XI helped reset his perspective, leading to this explosive turnaround.

Krunal Pandya reflects on his 11-season IPL journey, crediting adaptability, fitness and constant reinvention for his longevity and success with Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
