All-round Krunal proves he has the potential to be a match winner | Ipl News

Krunal Pandya grounds out six-wicket victory for Royal Challengers Bengaluru to send them top of the table after spinners restrict Delhi Capitals to a low total on a sluggish wicket. The buildup to this game was dominated by the homecoming of arguably the greatest cricketer this city has ever produced. Even as the expectant, boisterous crowd of the capital city continued to roar his name, it was impossible not to reduce the former Indian captain’s 47-ball 51 to a well-anchored supporting role at best. It was Krunal Pandya on whose shoulders Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) marched to a sixth successive away victory to defeat the Delhi Capitals by six wickets here on Sunday. They go top of the table with 14 points, their team coming together well, and their playoff chances now all but certain.

IPL 2025: Spin twins and Virat Kohli-Devdutt Padikkal script routine RCB win over Punjab Kings | Ipl News

Kohli’s chase-mastery and Padikkal’s carnage puncture Punjab’s shaky resistance after spin duo Suyash and Krunal sting them. Royal Challengers Bengaluru underlined their play-off credentials with another stress- and incident-free pursuit of 158, expertly conducted by Virat Kohli and Devdutt Padikkal. They thus maintained their all-win away record this season. Punjab Kings, conversely, are wading through a phase of stasis, even though both teams are locked on 10 points. Kohli’s chase-mastery, Padikkal’s carnage Two strokes of Kohli drew gasps from the otherwise muted crowd during Challengers’ stroll of a chase. The first instance was when he essayed the crispiest straight drive off Xavier Bartlett for his second boundary of the innings. His first instinct seemed to be to flick the fullish ball, but on quick second thoughts, he pushed the bat in a straight and economical line, through mid-off. The crowd, buoyant after Arshdeep Singh’s first-over dismissal of Phil Salt, paused and clapped to acknowledge a sublime stroke from one of India’s batting greats, whose aura transcends loyalties.

Finally, a proper rollercoaster RCB prevailed but not without sweating profusely as Hardik Pandya and Tilak Varma threatened a great heist but both fell in quick succession to leave the rest with too much.

By the end of the night, Kohli had left the defending champions with their confidence shaken with his well-paced innings of 59 off 36.

349/5! Baroda registers world record T20 team score in SMAT match against Sikkim | Cricket News

Baroda shattered a heap of records in the final round of the group stage of the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy as they registered the highest-ever men’s T20 total during the clash against Sikkim in Indore on Thursday. Baroda went past the 300-run mark in only 17.2 overs after being led by No. 3 Bhanu Pania’s 42-ball hundred before finishing on 349/5 in 20 overs. Pania finished unbeaten on 134 off 51 deliveries on the back of five fours and 11 sixes. Batting first in a must-win game in the absence of India all-rounder Hardik Pandya, Baroda unleashed carnage from the get-go as openers Shashwat Rawat and Abhimanyusingh Rajput put up a 92-run stan in five overs before the latter lost his wicket after scoring a quickfire 53 off 17. Baroda soon became the first Indian domestic team outside the IPL to record 100 runs within a T20 PowerPlay and the run-scoring rates only got quicker with each passing over.

Yash Thakur’s pace, Krunal Pandya’s guile orchestrate Lucknow Super Giants successful defence against Gujarat Titans | Ipl News

Synopsis:The forgotten Pandya and feisty Thakur conceptualise Super Giants’ maiden win over Gujarat Titans After his final over, Krunal Pandya, a bandana shackling his bouncing hair, held the ball aloft and waved to all parts of the ground. The spectators reciprocated with thunderous applause. The electronic scoreboard flashed his figures. It read 4-0-11-3. The forgotten Pandya brother had, yet again, asserted his unsung knack of defining games. In a sense, he is his brother Hardik’s antithesis; flying under the radar, his set of skills commonplace. One would find several of his type, a flattish left-arm spinner who can freewheel with the bat, in the leagues of Mumbai and its neighbourhood. But dish out a slow, slightly dual-paced surface, and he becomes deadly. He could repeatedly pound a length, sustain a nagging line, alter the pace, which he performed with devastating effect, and niggle batsmen to frustration. Like he did in his first over. Titans had just lost Shubman Gill, to a wicked Yash Thakur nip-backer, after a racy start, 54 runs in 5.5 overs. Krunal …
