Nothing hurts me more than Shreyas Iyer's team losing the match & him having a bad day in sports. No issue, he performs everyday & law of averages hits everyone. Hopefully, from hereon we gonna be on win streak till the Final of 2026❤️🧿
@APTalksCricket Nah, not just that.
If PBKS chases, I think they have a 70% chance of winning.
But if RCB chases, they have over a 90% chance of winning.
What I mean is, even if their openers do well and they score over 230, this RCB batting lineup can still chase it down.
This is EXACTLY WHY I said the Powerplay batting of Punjab and new ball bowling of RCB will decide who will win IPL 2026
Just too good Bhuvi and Hazlewood. Almost illegal combo. 👌👌
@_NenokkadinE_@TukTuk_Academy It's not just Porel.
After the Impact Player rule, the team batting first already has one extra batter in their 11, and then after a collapse, DC brought in one more batter. So technically, they had two extra batters, and yet RCB bundled them for 75—that's huge.

@CONMAN86997@Tarun113344 Abd made 31 off 8 balls.
He actually got out on the 8th ball, otherwise he would've been on 31*(7), which is faster than Morris (who was not out).
If ABD hadn't gotten out, he'd most likely have broken Yuvi's fastest 50 record.
76(25) prabhsimran despite a nonstop boundary hitting from ball one. and that makes me wonder what immortality 87(25) suresh raina has achieved. unbelievable.
Teams in this IPL are dominating because of their top orders
PBKS – Priyansh, Prabh, Connolly
RCB – Kohli, Salt, Padikkal
SRH – Abhishek, Head, Ishan
RR – Vaibhav, Jaiswal, Dhruv
CSK - Sanju, Ayush.
MI, KKR, LSG are struggling to get a good start. GT don't have finishers.
@Shahtv6920@ankit_acerbic How is he the best keeper in country when he is not even fit to play. Do you know what kind of fitness is needed to keep the wickets for 20 overs ?
Besides, there're many better wk now (even if Dhoni is fit enough) in the country.
@ankit_acerbic Why r people so hell bent on forcing him to retire? Let him play for another 5 years. What do u lose? He is still the best keeper in the country (by a mile) n even if he hits a couple of 6s, it gives great joy to people. Remember he is an entertainer!
Sport is jst entertainment!
My theory on MS Dhoni:
He has decided to retire before IPL 2026 as his body wasn't capable of playing another season. He informed CSK that he won’t be playing anymore and asked them to buy Sanju Samson as his replacement. Management requested him not to announce his retirement before this IPL as they would lose a lot of brand endorsements and fans wouldn't come to stadium, leading to huge financial losses.
So technically Dhoni is already retired, he just hasn’t announced it publicly yet

@Ajay505111@TUnlimitedd What's wrong with him wanting to get a 100 when his team is guaranteed to win the match (with his own vital contribution towards victory)
@TUnlimitedd Ya he covered it up at that time saying he was surprised how he timed the ball so well that it went for 6. But after few years in the video with two sloggers he admitted that he was disappointed bec he couldn't complete his 100. That's not a good mindset at all from a player.
I started disliking KL Rahul the day when India needed just one run to win the test match and he intentionally played out 4 dot balls for Prithvi Shaw to hit the winning runs in his debut series.
No wonder he is a failed captain and is a weak mentality player.
This same player encourages his teammates to play for their personal milestones and not their team goals. That mindset was the reason which took Indian Cricket backwards and it looks like he still hasn't learn from his past mistakes as we saw from yesterday's game against SRH.
Such kind of players having that kind of mentality will never progress in their careers.
@TSMentfan@HanumanthK12@Oxygen18_ Current form matters man. Do not just judge his scores but watch him bat, No one else apart from Patidar has looked that much in control right from the word go. Also, in 5 (not 6 as he didnt bat vs MI) matches he has already played 2 great knocks and one 14(7).
Bethell practiced for 3 hours today, his longest session so far. The star boy looks all set to play the next RCB game. If he’s not going to play, then why is he practicing so much?
But if we look at it from the team’s balance and overall combination, DDP might have to make way. It’s not that he has done anything wrong, but Venky can probably contribute more and also chip in with the ball.
Virat, salt, Bethell, Rajat, Venky, jitesh, Tim David, krunal
@TSMentfan@HanumanthK12@Oxygen18_ I used to think DDP was the worst batsman in the IPL until last year, but he's really improved his hitting game in the past two years. He's looking good this year, so I think he should get plenty of chances.
@Incrivelkaler@cricketaakash Bsdk 1 trophy nhi jiti ab tk, only a couple of finals and playoff entries overall.. and audacity to call other teams as mediocre. lol
Ga#d msti to dkho is chutiye ki 🤣
@Incrivelkaler@cricketaakash Opinion to tune diya ki RCB is nowhere close I predicted that RCB will thrash them, baki last year jo hua wo 'FACT' h opinion nhi.
Fyi, Pbks in their last 20 matches have lost only 4, and 3 of those defeats were against RCB.
@imsmd_@NavalGeekSingh Because a certain players has so many 100s both in IPL as well in internations that he has become a synonym for 100.
But many dumbfucks who make fun of him don't know that he's completed almost all his IPL 100s by smashing fours or sixes, never by slowly getting singles.
Priyansh out on 93 going for a big shot. 7 runs away from a century. Could've easily milked singles. DIDN'T. Meanwhile half the "legends" in this sport have crawled to 100 on dying balls just to do a bat raise for the camera. Priyansh lost his wicket for the team. They kept their wickets for the milestone. Tell me who the real legend is. #Cricket
