Karn Sharma

Royal Challengers Bengaluru secured their second IPL title, defeating Gujarat Titans. Amidst the celebrations, Phil Salt and Suyash Sharma achieved a rare IPL title hat-trick, winning three consecutive trophies with Kolkata Knight Riders and then RCB. They join Karn Sharma as the only players to achieve this remarkable feat.

Mumbai Indians will face Royal Challengers Bengaluru without star allrounder Hardik Pandya, who is still being evaluated by the medical team for a back spasm. Suryakumar Yadav will continue to captain the side in Pandya's absence for the crucial IPL 2026 encounter in Raipur.

Mumbai Indians and Lucknow Super Giants, both struggling at the bottom of the IPL 2026 table, face off at Wankhede Stadium. With playoff hopes fading, both teams are desperate for a win. Mumbai's campaign has been hampered by inconsistent performances and the uncertain availability of Rohit Sharma due to injury.

On Thursday at the Brabourne Stadium, the 27-year-old was in his elements, claiming four Sri Lanka wickets to play an important role in India's 88-run win in the one day warm-up game.

Just a year after he joined the Vidarbha fold, former Indian allrounder Karn Sharma and Vidarbha Cricket Association (VCA) have mutually parted ways.

A century by Karun Nair (120) and a career-best haul by Karn Sharma (10-133) were the highlights of the final day of the Duleep Trophy match between India Red and India Green on Sunday.

Mumbai Indians secured a thrilling 12-run victory against Delhi Capitals, ending their unbeaten streak in IPL 2025. Karn Sharma's impressive 3 for 36 and crucial breakthroughs shifted the momentum. Karun Nair's brilliant 89 went in vain as Delhi collapsed chasing 206. Earlier, Tilak Varma's 59 and Naman Dhir's unbeaten 38 propelled Mumbai to a formidable total, boosting their playoff aspirations.

Around 12 months ago, when Karn Sharma joined the Vidarbha fold, he had only one expectation. The leggie, who donned the Indian colours in 2014, wanted to play for a good competitive team, which can provide him good facilities. He was eyeing a return to the Indian team.

Leg-spinner Karn Sharma said he was excited to get an opportunity to play at Chennai Super Kings (CSK) under Mahendra Singh Dhoni and hoped to learn a lot under him.

Life has come full circle for Karn Sharma. Two years ago, he was struggling. He wasn't the part of Railways Ranji Trophy side and was also axed from their one-day squad.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni has mentored many youngsters in the Indian and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) set-up. There’s no one better than the former Indian captain when it comes to reading the match situation and acting accordingly. India all-rounder Karn Sharma's experience is no different.

He played his part in India 'A' winning the quadrangular series in Australia, and on Tuesday Karn Sharma was named in the Indian side for the ODI series in England.

For someone who is used to bowling plenty of overs every innings, not turning his arm over even once must have felt strange for Karn Sharma. However, that didn't stop the Railways captain from still putting his hand up and leading from the front.

This has been a season of wrist spinners so far. While Yazuvendra Chahal and Kuldeep Yadav are troubling the Aussies, another wrist spinner—Karn Sharma, has been in great form at the domestic level.

Karn Sharma came into prominence after his exploits for Sunrisers Hyderabad and was selected in the 15-member Indian squad to be led by Ajinkya Rahane.

Chasing a competitive 168, North Zone managed 163-6, losing by four runs.

Sharma credits former India legspinner Narendra Hirwani for his resurrection.
