4 min readMar 28, 2026 11:38 PM IST Virat Kohli plays only one format internationally these days. For someone who spent perhaps more than a decade playing non-stop cricket across formats, across the world, it is a different phase in his career. His appearances on the cricket grounds and television screens are limited to ODIs and IPL now. But, if his innings on the opening night of IPL 2026 is anything to go by, there is no rustiness in his batting. And the former India and RCB captain actually attributed it to the breaks he gets these days. Staying mentally is going to be the key to what is his final cricketing chapter. “The last game I played was the (IPL) final last year, but I think the way I batted in the one-day series quite recently really helped me to stay in that same kind of momentum,” Kohli said after his masterful 38-ball 69, staying unbeaten in a run-chase as he usually does. “I wasn’t playing shots that I don’t usually play, so I …

One of the remarkable features of Royal Challengers Bengaluru this season has been how efficient their bowling has been. It has been one of their standout features in helping them get to the playoffs. But on Friday against the Sunrisers Hyderabad, the bowling attack did look toothless. Hyderabad batters have been delivered hit-me balls far too often during their batting innings. “I think it was 20-30 runs extra. They played very well. I didn’t have any answers for their attack. We were rusty. The intensity was not there initially. In the death, we were bowling more accurately,” Jitesh said after the match. “Sometimes losing a game is a very good sign because you can check and analyse. The positive things are that everyone’s chipping in. After this loss, we’ve got a setback to check [things] again. We’ll move forward.” Hyderabad posted a competitive 231 for 6, riding on Ishan Kishan’s 48-ball unbeaten 94 and then restricted RCB to 189 in 19.5 overs.Apart from Kishan, left-handed opener Abhishek Sharma smashed 17-ball 34 with almost all the …

SYNOPSIS: Sunrisers Hyderabad recorded an unlikely Lucknow double in successive high-scoring games to diminish Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s hopes of a top-two finish After thumping Lucknow Super Giants in a sizzling 205-run chase on Monday, SRH disrupted RCB’s spotless six-match away-winning streak with refined performances across departments. Powered by Ishan Kishan’s first significant score in two months and RCB’s 233-run chase progressively spiralling out of control, SRH eventually notched up a comfortable 42-run win at the Ekana Stadium. Openers in sync Three weeks since RCB’s last outing and his first sighting back with the bat since hanging up his Test whites 11 days ago, Friday’s Virat Kohli was cut from a cloth he would have perhaps relished during his prolonged red-ball lull this decade. The former India Test No. 4’s imperceptible back-foot play was often cited during a parched Test stretch. Story continues below this ad But when Kohli pressed back in the crease to smear Pat Cummins’ loose ball outside off-stump, a blazing cut sped to the backward point fence off the first delivery he …

Royal Challengers Bengaluru will be playing against Sunrisers Hyderabad in the Ekana Stadium on Friday as opposed to their home ground M Chinnaswamy Stadium. For the uninitiated, this is because of the inclement weather in Bengaluru due to the onset of monsoon. RCB had their last home encounter against KKR washed out on May 17 which knocked out the defending champions. “The IPL Match No. 65 between Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) has been relocated to the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow, due to unfavourable weather conditions in Bengaluru” The league had said in the statement on Tuesday. RCB will aim to secure a top-two league stage finish for the first time in nine years when they take on Sunrisers Hyderabad. RCB haven’t finished inside the top two since the 2016 season when they signed off as runners-up eventually.

Glenn Maxwell reveals why he was left out of RCB vs SRH clash: ‘I went to the coaches last game said it was time to probably try someone else’ | Ipl News

On Monday during the game against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) left Glenn Maxwell out of the side. While it was quite a big move from the franchise, the form of Maxwell has been in steep decline this season. However, the Australian all-rounder would reveal that he went to the RCB leadership group and said it was “time to probably try someone else.” “I went to (Royal Challengers captain Faf du Plessis) and the coaches last game and said it was time to probably try someone else. I have been in this situation before, where you can keep playing and dig yourself into a hole. Now is the best time to give myself a mental and physical break.” Maxwell told the reporters. “Wasn’t contributing positively,” he would acknowledge. In the ongoing season thus far in six games, Maxwell made 32 runs at an average of 5.33. “After the first few games hadn’t gone to plan personally for me,” he added. Maxwell’s lack of form combined with an inexperienced Indian middle order and some …
