‘Vaibhav Suryavanshi will play for India after this IPL’

Published by Webster

2 min readApr 1, 2026 01:01 PM IST Former Pakistan wicketkeeper Kamran Akmal believes Vaibhav Sooryavanshi is ready for international cricket and could receive his India call-up when the current IPL season concludes. Sooryavanshi has taken the IPL by storm, scoring a century off 35 balls — the fastest in the tournament’s history — and the second fastest fifty. He hit a six off the very first ball he faced on debut. His latest feat was a 15-ball fifty against Chennai Super Kings, in a Rajasthan Royals chase of just 128. Akmal noted that the modest target only made the innings more striking. “In just 8 IPL games, he has been piling records — he already has a hundred. I think in the coming international games for India, he will get a chance after IPL. He will become a young player of the T20 international team. He has proved himself in every place. If he continues to perform, he will definitely get the chance,” Akmal said on the YouTube show Gameplan. ALSO READ | Kamran …

New-look Chennai Super Kings’ attacking approach falls flat as seamers set up big win for Rajasthan Royals. Chennai Super Kings vs Rajasthan Royals. Sanju Samson in yellow and Ravindra Jadeja in pink. All the talk in the lead-up to the fixture was on the two players who had exchanged their home bases. And Round 1 went Jadeja’s way, as the left-arm spinner played a supporting role to the pacers to give Royals a winning start to the season. From the moment the coin fell their way, they hardly put a foot wrong. Their pace pack, led by Jofra Archer and Nandre Burger, set up the win in the Powerplay itself. Chasing 128 on a tacky pitch, Rajasthan didn’t blink. And leading their charge was 15-year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, who hit a 15-ball half-century. His 52 off 17 deliveries, comprising four boundaries and five sixes, made Chennai freeze. The two sixes off Noor Ahmad showed his continuing evolution. After the multiple blows that they faced in the first half of the match, it was Sooryavanshi’s whirlwind knock …

It is no surprise anymore that Chennai Super Kings are one of the best followed teams in the Indian Premier League, perhaps even the most when it comes to away matches. On Tuesday, they were playing a ‘home’ game in the national capital at the Arun Jaitley Stadium as per the revised schedule for IPL 2025’s final set of league matches. And once again the stands were filled with yellow jerseys. So much so that the Rajasthan Royals official social media handle posted a self deprecating message before the toss at Kotla. Sharing the video of the toss interview conducted by Ravi Shastri, the post on X read: “To that one Pink shirt in the background, let’s win this for you tonight…” Of course, there was a huge roar that accompanied MS Dhoni’s introduction and chat with former India coach Shastri. CSK’s account posted: “Toss ->Thala ->Whistles! Delhi making us feel at home!” To that one Pink shirt in the background, let’s win this for you tonight 💗😂pic.twitter.com/MmRsoJCMOS — Rajasthan Royals (@rajasthanroyals) May 20, 2025 …

‘That decision was very good’: Nitish Rana on being promoted to No.3 in RR vs CSK match | Ipl News

Published by Webster

Nitish Rana who was promoted to No. 3 in the Rajasthan Royals batting lineup before the match against the Chennai Super Kings repaid the faith by the management by played a blistering 81-run innings on Sunday against CSK. The former Kolkata Knight Riders player said that he changed his game plan from the previous two matches and tried to use the pace of the Barsapara Cricket Stadium wicket to his success. “I got to know yesterday (Saturday) when Rahul sir called me before going to practice. Riyan also told me that I could bat at number 3. I guess, that decision was very good,” Nitish said at the post-match press conference. “In the first two matches, I was trying to hit hard. So, my learning from the last two matches was that if I try to use pace in this wicket, how much pace I can use on the new ball, if I try to do that, then my success rate can increase in making runs. And today, I did the same thing…,” he added. …

New Zealand batter Kane Williamson lauded Nitish Rana’s batting in the Sunday’s match against Chennai Super Kings, calling it a knock of the highest standard. The former Kiwi skipper also praised the fielding of Rajasthan Royals, saying that it was big factor in the Royals’ 6-run win over the 5-time champions CSK. “Nitish is an excellent player of spin, but he got his innings started against the seam, using the pace well. He accessed the areas behind square nicely and perhaps came in at No. 3 due to the left-hand, right-hand combination. It was an incredible knock of the highest standard, and I think that’s key for him moving forward in this tournament,” Williamson said. “Rajasthan Royals have several other talented batters, but today, Nitish was the match-winner. That said, in a game like this—on a surface where the margins are so fine—I believe Rajasthan Royals’ fielding is what truly got them across the line,” he added.

Rajasthan Royals coach Rahul Dravid displayed his dedication to his job ahead of the team’s Indian Premier League clash against the Chennai Super Kings by inspecting the pitch at Guwahati’s Barsapara Cricket Stadium on his wheelchair. Dravid’s Rajasthan Royals side went on to win the IPL 2025 game against CSK by six runs on Sunday. But Dravid’s act made jaws drop, especially of former cricketers-turned-analysts like Ambati Rayudu and Sanjay Manjrekar. The former India cricketer is currently recuperating from a leg injury that he suffered during an appearance in a local match in Bengaluru before the IPL 2025 started. As the official broadcaster showed the clip of the Indian cricket legend rolling by the 22-yard strip, former cricketers Ambati Rayudu and Sanjay Manjrekar were stunned. Both were doing commentary duties in the pre-match show on JioHotstar when the clip was played.

Rajasthan Royals ring more alarm bells for Chennai Super Kings | Ipl News

A romantic ending glimmered in the Guwahati skies. The probability of MS Dhoni turning the clock back and finishing the game with vintage swagger lurked. Needing 20 off the final over, Dhoni in pugnacious mood with 16 from 10 balls, nervous excitement soaked the stadium and the minds of the audience. But in pure anticlimax, he perished in the first legal ball of the over. Despite the strikes of Jamie Overton, Chennai Super Kings fell six runs short of Rajasthan Royals’ score of 182, thus handing out their opponents the first win of the season. Hangman Hasaranga Wanindu Hararanga exudes a monkish calm in the direst of situations. Where lesser-willed men sense danger, he sniffs an opportunity; when the tide seems to turn against him, he merely decides to change the course of the current himself. His performance in Guwahati was not ripped from the leg-spinner’s book of marvel. He is more of a utilitarian than an ethereal spinner. He doesn’t trade magic ball, does not fill the audience with awe, but does just enough …

RR vs CSK: Jofra Archer bowls first maiden over of IPL 2025 | Ipl News

Published by Webster

It has been another Indian Premier League 2025 season where the batters have been dominant. However, Rajasthan Royals’ pacer Jofra Archer who would concede the most expensive spell by any bowler in the history of the league would also deliver the first maiden of the season and would pick up the wicket of Chennai Super Kings opener Rachin Ravindra on Sunday at Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati. Who has the most maidens in IPL? Indian pacer and former Sunrisers Hyderabad bowler Praveen Kumar tops the list for the most maidens in the history of IPL. Praveen bowled 14 maidens in his career. He is followed by Bhuvenshawar Kumar, another Sunrisers Hyderabad bowler, who has been the leader of the attack in the past few seasons for the side. The bowler has bowled 12 maidens in his IPL career and is one of the most miserly bowlers in the history of the tournament. Trent Boult, who has been lethal with the new ball for Rajasthan Royals in the last couple of seasons, is third in the …

IPL 2025, RR vs CSK Live Cricket Score Updates: Not a lot has gone in their favour thus far this season, but Rajasthan Royals and Chennai Super Kings will aim to make amends before things go south quickly during their Match 11 face-off at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati. With Sanju Samson yet to assume full-time captaincy owing to his finger trouble, Riyan Parag will have one more chance to impress as captain in his hometown against an under-fire CSK unit that is turning up in a day’s time after a Chepauk debacle against Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
