Not Bumrah, not Rohit, Jayawardene feels this player can win the match vs RCB
Ahead of the IPL 2025 match against Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Mumbai Indians' head coach Mahela Jayawardene has backed Tilak Varma by saying that he will win the clash for them against the Rajat Patidar-led side. "He was trying, and he wasn't able to get going. So I just felt that it was my decision and to throw someone else to get those two hits and Mitch (Santner had done that in the last few games, he was in decent form. We needed two hits to get to 15 or 20 runs in that last over. So it had nothing to do with Tilak, and I am sure he will walk in here tomorrow and win the match for us. That is who Tilak is for us, and there is a lot of value for him," Mahela Jayawardene told ESPNCricinfo. In the IPL 2025 against Lucknow Super Giants, Varma smashed 25 runs off 23 deliveries, which included 2 fours while chasing a target of 204 runs. Following the knock, the 22-year-old faced criticism. During the match, Tilak Varma was made to retire out, and Mitchell Santer was sent in to shoulder Hardik Pandya. The Paltan lost the match by 12 runs. Also Read: IPL 2025, SRH vs GT: Miyan's magic restricts Hyderabad to 152 runs So far, in three innings of the IPL 2025, the left-hander has garnered 95 runs with an average of 31.66. His best score so far has been 39 runs. Jayawardene also said that it is important to change batting line-ups to certain bowling types. "So I do not see how different that is. As a batsman, I have had times where you go to bat and struggle to get through, and they bowl well to you; it is a combination of that. And he batted very well for us in the last three games, in tough situations like we have lost wickets early, and he built those partnerships and got us to situations that we need to," he said. The IPL 2025 match between Mumbai Indians and Royal Challengers Bengaluru will see the clash of stalwarts like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and Jasprit Bumrah. While RCB is placed in the second spot with two wins and a loss and has won both their away games so far against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK), MI is at the eighth spot in the table with just one win and three losses.

Happy to have got the opportunity to play at the top of the order, say KL Rahul
KL Rahul, who slammed a superb 77 to set up Delhi Capitals’ 25-run win over Chennai Super Kings in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025, said he was happy about getting the chance to play as an opener and credited the work put on the mental side of things helping him adapt to any batting position. On a not-so-easy pitch at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Rahul opened the batting in the absence of an unfit Faf du Plessis. He was at 25 off 20 balls before flicking a switch to hit 36 off his next 18 balls and make 77 off 51 balls, laced with six fours and three sixes, as DC made 183/6, which was enough to get them a win in Chennai after 15 years. "It's just how it's been. I am quite used to it. I was personally prepping to play at the top of the order before the IPL started. I had a chat with the coach, and he said he wanted me to bat at number four because we had a player who didn't turn up (Harry Brook). But I was happy that I got the opportunity today at the top of the order.” “It's more mental, and the pattern and process of getting in. Just getting used to walking in at a particular stage. I like to get used to doing the same thing. Since I've been going up and down the order, it takes me a few minutes to get used to it. That's something I've been working on - to not take those two or three balls,” said Rahul after the match ended. He also credited Abishek Porel for making a quickfire 33 during their second-wicket stand of 54. “I started really well, but through the middle, it was a bit scratchy. Those quick 20-25 runs (from Porel) set up the game. It really sets you up.” “I had a couple of partnerships like that with Axar and Abishek Porel. I hit a few boundaries early on in the power-play, and kept losing wickets at the wrong time when I wanted to go. Towards the end, the weather and the heat got to me; I got cooked." Axar Patel, DC captain, said he was happy with the side getting a hat-trick of wins, though he felt fielding could become better. "It's great to win three in a row. We want to have an impact, whether big or small. That's the plan, and it has been successful so far.” “Everything is running nicely. But as a captain, I'll say that we're doing well in the field, but also dropping catches. The momentum can shift at any time. I was saving myself (and hence bowled only one over), as I have injured my finger." Mitchell Starc, who took 1-27, lauded his team for adjusting to testing Chennai conditions very well. "Can't be more happy with that. A pretty good performance again today. The whole batting adjusted to conditions really well.” “Our spinners and bowling unit were fantastic throughout. Everyone adjusted to conditions really well, with the bat and ball. All bowlers adjusted really well. Everyone knows it's coming (the yorker). You can adjust and try and stay a little bit ahead." With DC firmly sitting at the top of the points table for now, they will now travel to Bengaluru to face Rajat Patidar-led Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium on Thursday.

PCB defends Khushdil after ugly fight with NZ fans post 0-3 loss in ODI series
Pakistan’s disastrous tour of New Zealand ended not just with a third straight ODI defeat, but also in controversy as all-rounder Khushdil Shah lost his temper and got into an ugly confrontation with taunting fans at the Bay Oval in Mount Maunganui on Saturday. The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) later issued a statement confirming the incident and defending their player’s actions, citing abuse and anti-Pakistan slogans from a section of foreign, reportedly Afghan, spectators. After Pakistan slumped to a 43-run defeat in the final ODI, capping off a demoralizing tour that saw them lose the T20I series 1-4 and the ODI series 0-3, Khushdil stormed towards a section of the crowd. While the exact trigger remains unclear, video footage and eyewitness accounts suggest the fans hurled repeated taunts targeting the team’s poor performances, which eventually pushed the 30-year-old cricketer over the edge. The situation quickly escalated as Khushdil appeared to charge at the group before being restrained by support staff and teammates. “The Pakistan team management strongly condemns the abusive language directed at national players. Khushdil Shah intervened after hearing anti-Pakistan slogans, but the situation escalated due to inappropriate remarks in Pashto,” the PCB said. The offending spectators were eventually ejected after an official complaint from the Pakistani side. The incident overshadowed yet another poor performance on the field. Chasing 265 in a rain-curtailed 42-over contest, Pakistan once again failed to build momentum. Babar Azam’s 50 and Mohammad Rizwan’s brisk 37 offered brief hope, but the rest of the batting order crumbled under pressure, undone by disciplined bowling from New Zealand, especially Ben Sears, who claimed his second consecutive five-wicket haul. Khushdil Shah later told Telecom Asia Sport (www.telecomasia.net) from New Zealand that he reacted after the person started abusing Pakistan. "They were criticizing players and the team, but when they started abusing my country,y I got angry and went to this man, but he did not stop. It was only after that, I confronted him," said Khushdil. Photos circulating on social media showed Khushdil being stopped by Pakistan reserve player Irfan Khan and a policeman as he tried to cross the fence to take on the abusive fan. Pakistanis residing in New Zealand were at the Bay Oval in good numbers but were left disappointed at the team's performance. This story has been sourced from a third party syndicated feed, agencies.

IPL 2025: Take bad days in stride, says Archer about PBKS' mixed start to season
Jofra Archer has redeemed himself in a fiery manner with a Player of the Match (POTM) performance in Rajasthan Royals’ 50-run victory over Punjab Kings in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 here on Saturday. The 30-year-old quick was smacked for the most expensive spell in IPL history in the first game of the season against Sunrisers Hyderabad when he conceded 76 runs in his four-over spell. On Saturday, he castled Shreyas Iyer and Priyansh Arya in the very first over of the match, laying the foundation for a famous victory. Archer reflected on the first game and said the most important thing is to always enjoy yourselves. “Beginning of the tournament, games like that happen. Most importantly, happy to contribute to the team. When there are days like this, you have to make sure you cash in. Enjoy the good ones, take the bad ones in your stride. You have to understand that you will be lucky in some circumstances, in others, the batters might be because everyone is working just as hard to be better. Every day is not going to be a great day, but on the good days, you have to enjoy because the bad day could be around the corner,” said Archer while collecting his award. Skipper Sanju Samson, who took the captaincy for the first time this season after having to play as a specialist batter in the opening three games of the tournament whilst recuperating from surgery on his finger, joked about the mixed combination of Archer and Sandeep Sharma, who took five wickets between them and applauded the former for his contribution. “That's a very deadly combo (Archer and Sandeep), one guy bowling at 150 and one guy at 115,” joked Samson. “We all love it when he (on Archer) bowls fast. Doing it for me in the last four years; he is one of the best guys in India right now, bowling fast. We did have a small meeting in the timeout, and I suggested they are a quality side and we can't take it easy. Till the last ball is bowled, we can't guarantee a win. “We focused on the process, and the result took care of itself. We took our time to find out what the best combination and lineups, and orders are, injuries we have to take care of, as this is a long tournament,” he said.

IPL 2025: Glad the defeat came early, says Shreyas Iyer after loss against RR
After getting a dominant start to the IPL 2025 campaign, Punjab Kings suffered their first loss of the season. But skipper Shreyas Iyer stated that the loss could work as a wake-up call for the side. In the IPL 2025 match against PBKS, Rajasthan Royals' Yashasvi Jaiswal played a glorious knock of 67 runs, followed by Riyan Parag, who scored an unbeaten 43 runs. "I thought that we would be conceding around 180-185 -- that would have been a great total to chase. We gave away a few extra runs, were not able to execute according to our plans. Glad that it (the defeat) happened at the start of the season," Iyer said at the post-match presentation. Riding on their knocks, RR reached the score of 205 runs for the loss of four wickets. This also marked the highest total at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium. In the run chase, Punjab's innings managed to reach the score of 155 runs for the loss of nine wickets. RR, led by Sanju Samson, won the match by a margin of 50 runs. Also Read: 'Teen chaar mil jaaye...' Yuzvendra Chahal speaks about his wicket prospects ahead of IPL 2025 clash against CSK The loss against Rajasthan also ended Shreyas Iyer's winning streak of eight matches as captain across two franchises. Only Gautam Gambhir has the record of winning 10 consecutive matches as the IPL captain. "This is just the third match, you need a slight hiccup at the start to wake you up and glad that it happened right now. We need to go back to the drawing board and come back strong next game," said Iyer, who guided KKR to the IPL title last year. The Punjab skipper also accepted that there were plenty of learnings from the defeat. "Many things to learn from this game. Today there was no dew. We cannot be blaming that. We need to go back to the drawing board and see the videos of where we were not able to execute with the bowling. In the batting, we could be focusing on building partnerships. We also lost back-to-back wickets. It is not easy for a new batter to get going." Despite losing four wickets for 43 runs, Nehal Wadhera stood tall for PBKS. Having faced 41 deliveries, he garnered 63 runs, which were laced with 4 fours and 3 sixes. Shreyas Iyer praised the 24-year-old for his gritty half-century under pressure. "Phenomenal batting under pressure. He took some time, he was able to analyse and was able to charge on the loose balls. It was a decent pitch to bat on, it was holding a bit. Were trying to hit the deck and not give them much pace. We could have built a few partnerships and taken it a little slow, rather than over-attacking." Punjab Kings will lock horns with Sunrisers Hyderabad in their next IPL 2025 fixture on April 12. (With PTI Inputs)

'Finisher' Dhoni fails to win match for CSK, gets trolled on social media
The fans kept waiting for the thunderous sixes, helicopter shots, and mesmerising hits to the boundary from Mahendra Singh Dhoni. But they did not come on Saturday, as Chennai Super Kings lost another match in their den. The wait continued, MS Dhoni's bat failed to talk on this day, and the legend trudged back to the dug-out as the social media erupted in disbelief, watching the man fade into the twilight. For years acknowledged as one of the best finishers in white-ball cricket, Dhoni failed to guide Chennai Super Kings to victory against Delhi Capitals in Match 17 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 at the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Saturday. Dhoni ended with an unbeaten 30 off 26 balls as CSK lost by 25 runs, ending with 158/5 from 20 overs, with Vijay Shankar not out on 69. With CSK chasing 184, Dhoni came in to bat at 74/5 in the 11th over after Ravindra Jadeja got out, trapped lbw by fellow spinner Kuldeep Yadav. With nearly nine overs in hand and 110 more runs needed, for the die-hard CSK fans, the stage was set for "Thala" to step in and guide the team home, sealing a memorable win with a last-ball six, just like in the 2011 World Cup final at the Wankhede. Also Read: 'Teen chaar mil jaaye...' Yuzvendra Chahal speaks about his wicket prospects ahead of IPL 2025 clash against CSK But on Saturday, the 43-year-old Dhoni failed to create the old magic and looked like a shadow of himself as he struggled to get the ball away as CSK slumped to a 25-run defeat, their first to the Delhi team at Chepauk in 15 years. Dhoni shared an 84-run partnership with Vijay Shankar, which is CSK's highest for the 6th wicket in IPL, breaking the record of 73 between Hussey and S Badrinath, but in the end, it proved insufficient. Dhoni could not provide the innings the thrust it needed towards the end was virtually tied down by Mukesh Kumar and Mitchell Starc as CSK needed 67 runs in the last three overs. The required rate continued to climb, and Dhoni did manage to hit a four and a six, but that was too little to help CSK. The thing that will hurt Dhoni and his fans the most is that his debacle came with his family, including his parents, wife, and daughter in the stands. There were reports that before the match, MSD had sought his father Pan Singh Dhoni's blessings. Social media was rife with proclamations that Dhoni was set to announce his retirement from IPL cricket, just as abruptly as he quit Test cricket and ODI. Dhoni played many dot balls in his knock, which caused a buzz on social media with many people seeking his retirement and others feeling sad seeing a legend struggling to guide the team to victory. "MS Dhoni's reputation is built on years of leadership, consistency, and unmatched calmness, but sometimes even legends face moments where people question their choices," said a fan on X, formerly Twitter. "As a diehard Dhoni fan, I'm requesting @ChennaiIPL to drop MS Dhoni for the next few matches. Give his spot to youngsters like Shaik Rasheed or Vansh Bedi. We already have Conway for wicketkeeping. So, Dhoni not necessary in playing 11," wrote another fan. Some fans also made memes on Dhoni playing a dot ball on a free hit while some others suggested that this was a good time for him to retire. Since the start of IPL 2025, there has been a lot of curiosity about how Dhoni, who will be turning 44 in a couple of weeks, will handle things. He was praised for his brilliant stumpings -- especially for dismissing Suryakumar Yadav of Mumbai Indians. But his batting came under fire when he came to bat at No.9 in one match and failed to score many runs in the other. Saturday's struggle to properly execute the finisher's role, for which he is renowned, takes further fuel to the fire. This story has been sourced from a third party syndicated feed, agencies.

A wicket is a wicket. Definitely, it will be challenging. When you bowl under such pressure, your mind starts working more." "When I'll step on the ground, I will prepare myself according to the conditions. We will also look at the bigger and smaller sides [of the pitch from the boundary line].
