Ian Bishop on Mitchell Starc’s comeback for Delhi Capitals

Ian Bishop on Mitchell Starc’s comeback for Delhi Capitals

3 min readMay 2, 2026 01:03 PM IST With his spell of 3 for 40 runs for Delhi Capitals against hosts Rajasthan Royals in their seven-wicket win on Friday night, Aussie pacer Mitchell Starc marked his return to competitive cricket after a gap of more than three months. Starc last played international cricket in January, when he played in the fifth and final Ashes Test at Sydney, and was sidelined due to elbow and shoulder injuries. Former West Indies pacer Ian Bishop termed Starc’s return to cricket as an ‘impressive’ one and shared how he brought back the firepower for Delhi Capitals in this IPL. “Very impressed. I had my question in my own mind about what sort of form he would come into this after the protected break that he had. And he brought some firepower for them, which was pleasing. His last over, I think, went for a few runs otherwise the figures would have been a lot better. I am happy with that from Delhi’s point of view,” Ian Bishop said on …

IPL 2026: ‘He’ll come better prepared; he won’t be Jasprit Bumrah…’ Ian Bishop on Mitchell Starc against Vaibhav Sooryavanshi | Cricket News

4 min readMay 1, 2026 04:41 PM IST With his tally of 400 runs in nine innings at a strike rate of 238.09 this IPL, teen sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi has blasted his way to runs in power plays. The 15-year-old has hit bowlers like Jasprit Bumrah, Josh Hazelwood and Pat Cummins for sixes this season and will be expected to face Aussie pacer Mitchel Starc during Rajasthan Royals’ match against Delhi Capitals today evening. With Starc having joined Delhi Capitals earlier this week and expected to play in his first competitive match since January after shoulder and elbow injuries, former West Indies pacer Ian Bishop believes the Australian pacer will come better prepared against a batsman like Sooryavanshi. When asked about whether Starc will expect the same treatment which Sooryavanshi gave to the likes of Bumrah, Bishop replied that Starc won’t be Bumrah. “No, I think you have to give Mitchell Starc credit. He’ll come better prepared; he won’t be Jasprit Bumrah,” Bishop said on ESPNCricinfo. Delhi Capitals are currently sitting at seventh spot in …

GT vs RCB: The Jason Holder-Patidar catch IPL controversy — Ian Bishop thinks it wasn’t out | Cricket News

3 min readMay 1, 2026 06:00 AM IST Rajat Patidar had pulled Arshad Khan to the right of deep square-leg. Holder rushed across, Rabada converging too before pulling out at the last instant. Holder lunged to pouch it — and then the questions started. Did the ball touch the ground as he went down? Did he use the ball itself to push himself back up, pressing it into the turf? Holder’s fingers were under it, or they weren’t. RCB thought one thing. The third umpire thought another. At Lord’s in 2023, Mitchell Starc dived to take a catch off Ben Duckett at fine leg, the ball scraping along the turf as he slid around the boundary. Australia were convinced it was out. The third umpire disagreed. The MCC subsequently clarified why, pointing to Law 33.3, which states that a catch is completed only when the fielder has complete control over both the ball and their movement. Starc, the MCC said, was still sliding when the ball made contact with the ground — and therefore not …

Ian Bishop ‘mind-blown’ by Devdutt Padikkal’s IPL 2026 re-invention: ‘Virat was good, Sai good but DDP blew me away’

Devdutt Padikkal has shown this IPL season that he has shifted up a gear, becoming a key part of Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s batting line-up. Known earlier for his elegant strokeplay, he has added more range to his game this year, handling short-pitched bowling better and showing a more fearless intent from the outset. That change has allowed him to play with greater freedom in the powerplay and keep the scoreboard moving. Across his IPL career, he has maintained a strike rate of a little over 130, but this season he has taken it to another level, striking at 184.07. The improvement has given RCB a strong start in several innings and eased pressure on the middle order. His ability to adapt to different match situations has stood out, making him one of the more impactful batters in the tournament so far for Royal Challengers Bengaluru this season; his overall impact is clearly visible now. Devdutt Pakdikkal has bee in incredible form in IPL this year. (PTI) In the last match against Gujarat Titans, he raised …
