PBKS vs RCB: Punjab set unwanted IPL record after 101 all-out in Qualifier 1

India Today29-05-2025
The Punjab Kings recorded the second-lowest total in the history of IPL playoffs as Suyash Sharma and Josh Hazlewood ran riot in Mullanpur in Qualifier 1 on Thursday, May 29. Suyash and Hazlewood picked up three wickets each as PBKS posted 101 runs in 14.1 overs as the batting order completely collapsed on the day for Punjab. After winning the toss in Mullanpur, RCB made the early breakthrough by dismissing the in-form Priyansh Arya in the second over of the game. Since then, wickets kept falling at regular intervals with the likes of Prabhsimran Singh, Shreyas Iyer and Josh Inglis falling after playing rash shots as the PBKS owners looked in dismay. advertisementWhile Marcus Stoinis provided some respite with his 26 off 17 balls, the rest of the batters were clueless as Suyash spun a web around them. The spinner claimed the wickets of Shashank Singh and the impact sub Musheer Khan in the same over before cleaning up Stoinis.
PBKS vs RCB UpdatesHazlewood, who was returning from an injury layoff, got rid of Inglis, Shreyas and then Azmatullah Omarzai to end the innings in the 15th over. 14.1 overs is the lowest batted by a team in an IPL play-off.

Post real money gaming bill, questions aplenty for Indian cricket

IPL may feel aftershocks One of the knock-on effects of a blanket ban could be felt by Indian cricket, especially the lucrative Indian Premier League (IPL). Various IPL teams as well as the competition itself are tied up with various real money gaming firms, including Dream XI and My11Circle. Even if Indian cricket will not have a lot of problems onboarding new sponsors — if they want to go down that path — there may be some short term pain. "Fantasy gaming platforms like My11Circle and Dream11 have become heavyweight backers of Indian sports," said Santosh N, managing partner of D & P Advisory, an independent valuation company. "My11Circle has committed Rs 625 cr for an IPL associate sponsorship slot, while Dream11 has consistently backed franchises such as Punjab Kings, Gujarat Titans, and Sunrisers Hyderabad as title or principal sponsors. My11Circle is currently an IPL associate sponsor at the league level, contributing a large share of central sponsorship revenue. Separately, Dream11 has team-level sponsorships, serving as Title Partner and Principal Partners for some teams. Together, fantasy sports brands account for hundreds of crores in sponsorship inflows, making IPL one of the most exposed properties to a potential ban." Dream11, as it stands, is the Indian team's 'lead sponsor' but that is scheduled to end after next year's men's T20 World Cup. "Banning it would strip IPL and many smaller leagues of vital funding, compress marketing budgets, and likely curb the steady upward trend in sponsorship revenues." Santosh added. My11Circle also counts a number of active Indian cricketers as their brand ambassadors. Per the bill, they can't endorse any of these products. Set for a challenge? If and when it becomes law, the gaming companies may decide to challenge its constitutionality. Sports lawyers this newspaper spoke to said that fantasy games like Dream11 are 'games of skill' according to a Supreme Court judgment a few years earlier. A Dream11 spokesperson 'declined to comment' for multiple questions raised by this mast. The bill caught a lot of industry stakeholders off guard, especially because this government's previous moves with respect to the online gaming industry was seen as favouring them. It's been reported that the government are now citing national security as well as social issues for this step.

Virat Kohli-Fans Will Get Emotional After Watching This Video Of His Last…

Last Updated: Virat Kohli may have called it quits, but his fans have not. They keep sharing his old videos, perhaps a blast from the past on social media. Virat Kohli lifted the IPL trophy for the first time when he was on the field last time. It's been more than 2 months since then, and the fans are simply missing him. Before witnessing the IPL glory, Kohli left the country shell-shocked with his sudden retirement from Test cricket. A few reports have hinted at his willingness to step away from his favourite format. But they appeared to be far from reality, given Kohli's love for the longest format of the game. Alas, the unexpected unfolded. The date was May 12, 2025. Kohli's goodbye message to Test cricket broke a million hearts that day. He may have called it quits that day, but his fans have not. They keep sharing his old videos, perhaps a blast from the past on social media that end up garnering endless traction. Here's the video: Kohli Begins The Grind Virat Kohli has been away from cricket since RCB's historic IPL 2025 title win, where he broke down in tears. Currently in London, speculation over his future continues. Having retired from Tests and T20Is, Kohli is now only available for ODIs. India's next 50-over assignment is the October tour of Australia, where he is expected to feature.

After Rohit Sharma, Shreyas Iyer tipped as ODI skipper over Shubman Gill — 'He has ...'

After Rohit Sharma, Shreyas Iyer tipped as ODI skipper over Shubman Gill (Agency Photos) Shubman Gill currently serves as India's Test captain and was recently named the vice-captain of the T20I team for Asia Cup 2025. He also holds the position of vice-captain in India's ODI team. Gill has shown impressive leadership skills in his first Test series as captain against England. Many former players and cricket experts view him as India's future captain across all formats. However, IPL legend Ambati Rayudu, who represented India in 55 ODIs and six T20Is from 2013 to 2019, has a different perspective on India's next ODI captain. Asia Cup 2025: India Squad Announced | Surya Named Captain, Gill Vice-Captain Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! Shreyas Iyer has demonstrated strong leadership capabilities, leading Kolkata Knight Riders to an IPL victory in 2024. He also guided Delhi Capitals and Punjab Kings to IPL finals in 2020 and 2025, respectively. During a YouTube podcast with Shubhankar Mishra, Rayudu expressed his choice for India's next ODI captain after Rohit Sharma, saying, "(Shreyas) Iyer. I think Iyer. He has extraordinary calmness. He has taken KKR to be the champions. Then the way he has led a young Punjab team. Nobody was giving them a chance even. He is an extraordinary captain, and he should become captain soon." Iyer has established himself as a consistent performer in India's ODI team. He emerged as the highest run-scorer for India during their recent ICC Champions Trophy 2025 campaign. In his ODI career spanning 70 matches, Iyer has accumulated 2845 runs in 65 innings. His impressive record includes five centuries and 22 fifties, maintaining an average of 48.22. During the 2023 ICC Men's ODI World Cup, Iyer contributed significantly with 530 runs in 11 matches. This included a crucial century of 105 runs against New Zealand in the first semifinal at Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium. Gill, currently ranked as the world's top ODI batsman, has scored 2775 runs in 55 ODIs for India. His ODI record features eight centuries and 15 fifties, with an outstanding average of 59.04. His highest score in ODIs stands at 208 runs, achieved from 149 deliveries. This remarkable performance highlights his capabilities as a top-order batsman for India.
