They tried to make me hit to the bigger part. Take the pace off and bowl slow. I said Nehal let's hit it hard and hit it into the gaps and run hard. Your practice has to be the same what you intend to do in matches. I know where my runs are. We have open net sessions. I know my game. I don't do anything different. Player of the Match | Suryakumar Yadav It is a good pitch. If you apply yourselves, you can get runs. Those four guys played well. Akash was with us last year as well. We saw the skillset. We wanted to give him a role. He is quite confident. He leads his Uttarakhand team. He knows what field he needs. We restricted them to less than 200. Was a gre...

Glenn Maxwell and Faf du Plessis played terrific innings for RCB earlier today as well, but Suryakumar batted at a level above even that today, helped along by some ordinary bowling from RCB, who struggled with dew. The game, though, was decided by the finish to RCB's innings. They only made 63 in the last 45 balls of their innings, after Mumbai had broken the Maxwell-Faf partnership. Excellent review from RCB. Rohit steps out, doesn't get to the pitch of the ball while looking to work it leg side. It's a legbreak that doesn't turn as much as he expects, and he's hit on the pad. Fair decision by the on-field umpire because the batter has stepped out, but RCB review, and ball-tracking suggests the ball has straightened just enough to be hitting a good chunk of leg stump. Rohit stepped out, but not so far that he got to the 3m mark that would have meant the on-field decision stood irrespective of ball-tracking. Kishan's onslaught continues after RCB bring on spin in the fifth over. He hits Wanindu Hasaranga for four and six off his first and third balls, both slightly overpitched. Then Hasaranga corrects his length, and Kishan, looking to make room to slash it away, top-edges to Anuj Rawat, who's keeping instead of Dinesh Karthik today. Ishan Kishan's hit three sixes off the last four (non-wide) balls he's faced. A crisp, dancing lofted drive over mid-on and a top-edged hook, off Mohammed Siraj, and now a humongous slog (I use the word purely descriptively here) over midwick...

Royal Challengers Bangalore's quest for their maiden IPL title is still on but they have been pretty consistent of late, making the playoffs in each of the last three seasons. This run has also coincided with them not playing at their home ground, M Chinnaswamy Stadium - theirs is one of the poorest home records for an IPL team. This season, they play six of their first eight games in Bengaluru, which could dictate how their campaign goes. Mumbai Indians, their opponents, are the most successful IPL team with five titles but they have been in a rebuilding phase since the 2022 mega auction. They finished at the bottom of the points table last season, with four wins and ten losses. This time, they have fortified their batting by signing • During the recent T20I series against New Zealand, Ishan Kishan found it difficult to get going against Michael Bracewell, falling to him twice in 13 balls for just seven runs. • Harshal Patel has dismissed Rohit three times in 23 balls while conceding only 27 runs. • Since the start of 2022, Kohli's T20 strike rate "Mumbai Indians have got a good record here. But that's all in the past. There're new characters within the teams. So you can sort of take that from a confidence perspective and try to infiltrate that into the players. But the bottom line is you don't win the game of cricket on paper." Mumbai head coach Mark Boucher is not dwelling much on the past
