SportsTranscript
00:01And it starts right here in Bengaluru, the home of the defending champions.
00:07We will travel all across India.
00:10But that journey of 74 games in all starts right here in Bengaluru.
00:18Amidst joy at the return of cricket.
00:21And amidst poignancy at the reason it was away.
00:25And so it will be celebratory as the Chinnaswami always is.
00:30But for RCB it will also be a bit emotional today.
00:36It is that kind of evening.
00:41You want to remember the joy but you want to remember what came before.
00:45As the Royal Challengers take on the Sunrisers.
00:48It was against SRH that RCB's run started back in 24.
00:52But SRH came here and made 287.
00:56That's two powerful sides starting off IPL 2026.
01:01Here at the Chinnaswami Stadium.
01:05The coin toss a little while ago.
01:09RCB won the toss.
01:11It will be the Sunrisers batting first.
01:14And it's time to say good evening to Ian Bishop and first of all Kevin Peterson.
01:18Good evening Harsh, good evening everybody.
01:20Yes, the RCB they chose to bowl.
01:23They will be chasing.
01:24That means sunrises will be.
01:25This is the time.
01:26It's time to start.
01:28It's time to start.
01:35It's time to start.
01:55almost a packed house Kevin Peterson you know what it is to be playing out here
02:01to make a play Sunrisers Hyderabad this evening Isha and Kishin the skipper what
02:08about that batting line we're gonna be treated to some runs without Liam
02:12Livingston RCB on the other hand how big was Josh Hazelwood last year
02:22very very big and out come the two umpires vastly experienced Ulaas Ghande and Jay Madan Gopal
02:34Ulaas Ghande won the best domestic umpire of the year Madan Gopal has been around for a long time
02:42the first test quicker it goes for these two mighty fine players what a partnership
02:50last time they played here got a hundred and forty one balls did Travis head
02:53spectacular
02:59and so it begins you might say it begins once again
03:02but it carries
03:03a little bit of swing
03:10Duffy's known for a few things when he's at his best
03:16first runs of this year's IPL I just wonder if Travis said things I might have missed out on that
03:22swinging into his pants
03:28oh good ball good ball the keeper thought there was something no one else did
03:32he still thinks he's heard something
03:39it's very loud out there I can struggle to hear Rajat Patida and his answers apathos and he is saying
03:46it's very loud for him
03:47Jitesh wants it
03:50there's the first one there goes the first six of the third IPL 2026 and inevitably inevitably
04:04yeah the feeler was Tim David and he doesn't walk in he just
04:26he is a bonfire IPL great in the years that the Sunrise has qualified for the playoffs every time
04:39he's a year older but he went and played the Mushtakali and played it very well
04:45this is great
04:50when that gets said you know that you've got to deliver from ball one
04:54let's have a look at what Abhishek Sharma did there
05:02and on other days that could have ruled back one to the stumps because Abhishek had no idea where it
05:07went
05:10down the left side it'll be wide again
05:14you can see it's a tactic
05:15they're trying to bowl into his right hip
05:18as he's after
05:19there again brilliant bowling
05:29oh little inside there does it mean it's his day
05:33the fascinating inside into why they
05:36oh down the lakeside again
05:39sometimes when you can try to get too close to the better
05:42not to give room down the off
05:45that's gone straight up
05:47Jitesh Sharma is underneath it
05:48will this be the first? it is!
05:54RCB have a wicket Abhishek is on his way back
06:00who struck a bird
06:04this is outstanding from RCB so far
06:07it really is high quality bowling
06:10there's a plan and they are executing
06:15brilliant
06:19if Jacob Duffy wanted to forget the T20 World Cup he has
06:24a little fuller
06:26exactly what the batter wants
06:28now has it gone straight onto the cushion?
06:30bounce just in
06:33and that's what we're talking about here
06:36he's missed one ball
06:37so tough
06:39two balls
06:40he missed their previous
06:43clubbed
06:43clubbed
06:43straight to the fielder
06:44one more goal
06:46as Jacob Duffy has two
06:48first Abhishek
06:49now Travis Head
06:51and as you would imagine
06:53the chinless swami has erupted
06:57it said Klaassen bats 4
06:59it's Nitish Reddy at 4
07:04brilliant
07:06that is an indicator of what great form is
07:15what about this catch?
07:19this to me took some catching
07:20because I just spoke about the horizontal bat shot
07:23without feeling the hot spot
07:26it will be interesting to see how Nitish Reddy goes about this
07:33and it's about hitting your lines again
07:35straight to the right-hander
07:36right-hander comes out
07:41brilliant fielding
07:42you need that fielding
07:47excellent again from Huvius
07:51again he hits the splice at the bat
07:53great pleasure to see
07:54hello and good evening to Dale Steyn
07:59should be another wicket
08:01could this be a third for Jacob Duffy it is
08:04he has started off this IPL season
08:07with brilliant form
08:09what a difference a few weeks make
08:13IPL season
08:16very good
08:17a little bit of shape
08:18nice test
08:22don't blame him for pitching it up
08:24a little bit more
08:25to Klaassen
08:27very good
08:27from Romario Shepard
08:31bowling well
08:32building up pressure
08:33and Sunrise is feeling
08:35I think he broke the
08:48that's disappeared
08:50my goodness
08:51such power
08:53not many people
08:54hit them up into the upper chair
08:56here at this ground
08:57I can think of a
08:59is he let
09:08Ishan Kishan plays
09:10that pull shot well
09:11it's just hit and plugged
09:14but might just have had enough
09:16to dribble into the rope
09:19now he goes wide above stump
09:22and it goes all the way for six
09:25Ishan Kishan on the march
09:28and that's what happens
09:29if you have that extra pain
09:29I mean that
09:41when you're in such good rhythm
09:43you kind of do one
09:47and Yobesh would have liked a
09:49a third or even a fourth over
09:50and that's
09:55and when you look at his action
09:57you look at his action
09:58he talks about his
10:03still suya shama to bull
10:17glorious
10:18he hit one earlier in the innings
10:21in front of point
10:22this one behind point
10:24beauty
10:28because if they can get to maybe
10:29ten or eleven
10:30eleven overs
10:31with maybe a hundred
10:32for just three wickets
10:38Heinrich Klassen
10:40at his absolute best
10:43each length
10:46or just as good
10:47just as good
10:48just as effective
10:51will this be the return
10:52to the best form of Klassen
11:05almost went too hard at it
11:07so it's going to be an interesting over
11:12like that
11:13young fella
11:14few nerves
11:15in London
11:16understandably so
11:28it's in the air
11:29it's in the gap
11:30and it's for
11:31just the kind of form
11:33that has seen Isha and Kishan
11:35light up stadiums
11:36not just at the World Cup
11:37but
11:40sometimes you get those two
11:44even if it's just a single
11:459
11:468
11:477
11:486
11:51right so there you are
11:52that's the end of the Seattle
11:53strategic timeout
11:58Balbo
11:59is turning the googly
12:01a huge amount during
12:02practice
12:03looks similar
12:05both similar to a Josh Hazelwood
12:08good pause DK
12:11just in time
12:13I think it might be a boundary too
12:16as soon as Dave walked to me
12:17first of all put his hands up
12:18and said thank you so much
12:20what does he do now
12:21come on
12:21tell us what he does now
12:22ideally he can go back to the hotel
12:24if he wants to
12:24but because there's a game
12:25he's got to wait
12:26but the point is that
12:27he's done for the day
12:28he can't bat
12:29he in fact can't even
12:30he would thinking
12:30what are the bowling changes to make after this
12:32there are two good players of spin
12:33so we are trying to understand
12:35what's the best match-ups for him
12:36what are they looking to do
12:37Ishan is batting
12:38now we have the spinners in action
12:41that's through the onside
12:42that might be in the gap as well
12:43well stopped there
12:44come back for two
12:45thanks for joining us DK
12:47good pauses
12:47good to see that
12:48you're keeping your grammar
12:49up and running
12:50the under 19 world cup
12:52showing off his skills
12:52in the field
12:58yeah precisely what Dinesh
12:59was on a bear
13:02I saw him practice a seam up ball
13:05almost below
13:06happens in the short term
13:09Jay hit that hard
13:10it's only a single
13:11but he hit it hard
13:13I think that was maybe
13:14the ball that you were looking for
13:18when he bowled in practice
13:19it was a lot quicker
13:20it was almost like he was
13:21he was left up
13:22half the bats it goes for six
13:24so the bowlers have got to
13:25come up with something
13:27and bowl it slow
13:27you've got to
13:30oh
13:30was in the air briefly
13:37interesting dive
13:38he's got so much experience
13:40well
13:42back pass the ball of a four
13:46just like that 50 comes up for Ishan Kishan
13:48he's mad
13:51oh
13:52brilliant
13:52stop what you're doing
13:54stop what you're doing
13:56because this man
13:57is playing T20 cricket
13:59like very few can
14:02oh
14:04trouble at the non-strikers end
14:11close and dive between the
14:13and again
14:15it's short
14:17it's not the best delivery
14:20Spoon is disappearing
14:22wings on it
14:24oh you betcha
14:26Angel one super six of note
14:35it's
14:35want to be happy
14:46good pace
14:48good flight
14:49on that dip
14:52oh he's gone short
14:54oh he's got a wicket though
14:58another good breakthrough here for RCB
15:04yeah not the best ball that he'll bowl all night
15:06but
15:07he managed
15:08captain
15:11and put Burma
15:13another little
15:17another little Google
15:19this is exquisite
15:21splits the gap
15:22finds the fence
15:28the short one
15:31so it only goes for seven in the wicket
15:43into another seat tire strategic timeout
15:46Nandan he's back
15:47no
15:48he's got to
15:50make up
15:51it's been a little expensive here tonight
15:56and that
15:58has come out of the middle of the blade folks
16:01easy as you like
16:02here's another sixer
16:05he's got to
16:06he's got to
16:09he's got to
16:09he's got to
16:11crowd silence there
16:15it's in the air
16:16Salt
16:17he's not going to get there this time round
16:20oh
16:25thrashed
16:27no
16:27you're kidding me
16:30talk about wrist work
16:32and the skipper
16:33goes into the 80s
16:34with another ripper
16:37tries the Yorker
16:38missed it
16:39oh no
16:41popped this in the hood locker
16:43yeah
16:45give him a gold medal
16:46as he does the circuit
16:47Phil Salt
16:49having a night out
16:52what
16:55how good is that one from Aniket Varma
16:58he showed us what he was capable of last year
17:01this young man from Madhya Pradesh
17:03but that is a serious hit
17:06at the other end is a young man
17:07I remember glow
17:14that's got to be called wide
17:18once again
17:19once again
17:20once again
17:20there's a fielder in the deep
17:22this time it's Padikal
17:26his second catch too
17:28and the sun rises
17:30keep losing wickets
17:38and very good with the uppercut
17:41I just think the ball stood up long enough for him to be able to adjust the shot
17:45but still you've got to play it and he played it remarkably
17:49right only gone up
17:54put down
17:57he had a long long way
18:02now the interesting thing is he's gone by reputation here on the batter
18:06he thinks it's Virat so he's going to be caught
18:11straight in
18:13straight in
18:14easy as it comes
18:18this is Harshal Patel
18:19quick in quick out
18:21the sunrise
18:22has only really recently been added
18:24into the sunrise's team
18:28left hand bowler but can he hit a long Romario
18:33it's not a bad one
18:36huge
18:37big out of the stadium
18:39he has hit a monster here
18:42just a little change of pace but in the slot
18:47and keeps going that's a bad ball
18:50it's a bad ball
18:51and it's got the result that the batter wanted
18:53wide with third man inside the circle
18:59straight back
19:00straight back
19:01this might go the distance
19:02too it does
19:04this is sensational batting from this young man
19:06who made us all
19:07sit up and take notice last year
19:09called the little league the state leagues
19:12the quality of cricket in those leagues is rising
19:18this might reach the field or it does an easy one
19:23such a big wicket
19:25with the last six balls to go because Aniket was playing so well
19:2843
19:30now given how deep this batting is what does 200 look like
19:34because this is a cut in strike
19:37goes through the offside
19:39Payne's already charging for one
19:41go for the second they'll get it easily
19:43and they finish with 201
19:46very interesting call
19:47he was looking for a single to keep the strike
19:49and the ball carried all the way to Kohli
19:51he wanted to keep strike
19:54and looked at the field
19:55and wanted to play that ball there
19:57which eventually didn't get called wide
19:59because he thought he was playing the field
20:01those are the two performances
20:03Bish talked about Ishan Kishan
20:04it was an incandescent performance
20:0680 of 38
20:08just over tens from the get-go
20:13surface
20:14they got about the psychological 200
20:16get it on the board you need to hear
20:18at Chinnaswamy
20:20all those historical obvious things
20:24slick outfield not a big boundary
20:27and if it comes on and slides on
20:30you don't quite get your length right
20:32then you do disappear
20:33but as Al Steyn rightly mentioned
20:38he starts with a goodie
20:40it's a back end of a length
20:42and nicely on about off in middle
20:44good
20:47he can't pierce the field
20:49oh he wanted it
20:51it's salt
20:53to understandably
20:55get off the
20:59ah yes
21:01bit of wick gone off
21:02and the wrists of Phil Salt
21:04get RCB under one
21:07just a little bit of away
21:10looking for swing
21:12not quite
21:16goodie
21:17it's scary
21:19oh that's a scary shot as well
21:22salt off the back foot again
21:24for four ball
21:25and a pitch as good as this
21:27you can't give the back up
21:28oh and finally he's missed out there
21:37splice splice
21:39almost a collision
21:42Klaassen said it was his
21:44all the way
21:46certainly out
21:49and a good time
21:52do not get in there
21:54to any lefty
21:56what a goal
21:57super sub underway straight away
22:00he's been in great form
22:02great dutch
22:02five lakh rupees
22:05towards the purchase of cricket kits
22:08so yeah the initiative's a good one
22:10it's been around
22:13oh not quite the timing
22:14from Coley but he's underway
22:17much to the delight of the fans here
22:20underway with the boundary
22:25as lovely wrists as ever
22:28and Coley
22:30so much rides on him
22:35and a little tickle
22:37to finally
22:39another boundary
22:40to Panacal
22:42you don't have a fielder there
22:44you can't be rolling at the bat
22:48there he is just the one
22:52off his back
22:55lives elsewhere
22:56different lifestyle now
22:58doesn't play
23:02didn't get all of it
23:03got enough of it though
23:05for one bounce
23:06there you go if you're slightly off
23:09disappearing time
23:12how much more aggressive
23:17so yeah late call in
23:19and useful
23:21he's mid thirties these days
23:22David Payne
23:25he's
23:25on the charge
23:26long enough
23:27door just
23:29oh one of those nights
23:31it ends up going down the throat
23:33of the fielder but not there
23:36oh and he's on the move
23:40smart batting using the crease
23:42David Payne who's in as a super sub
23:44he's under the pump here
23:49just takes the pressure off Coley in a way
23:53just settle and get in
23:54have a look
23:57wrist work
23:59and six
24:01one of those left handers
24:03now Coley
24:05this is power
24:15they love him down here don't they
24:17Coley
24:18who goes through the off side
24:20now for four
24:22and he's just playing the field
24:24he says i'll hit you on the off side
24:26you put a field in there now i'll hit you through the off side
24:29because boy they can play they're at 60 already in the fifth over
24:33that's what you need as a batter you need time
24:35you can have as much quality as you want
24:37but it's time and that's what DDP
24:42oh
24:42oh keeper
24:46just
24:50still take the run it's easy
24:56finds the gap four
24:57goes over the field
24:58finally goes in
25:00he's toying
25:04unless he yorks himself
25:13yeah what a difference eh
25:14the colour
25:19that Ishan Malinga in the score
25:21that beautiful sweep shot
25:25alright just chips that one out to mid wicket on the boundary
25:29I just don't seem to have seen
25:31lower
25:35eight of the over it's 76 for one
25:37three
25:46how well has he hit that
25:49it was a while
25:50all i can say is
25:51you slow down the replay it's still
25:53vanishing very
25:57took pace off
25:58what
25:59towards the start of last year's IPL
26:03they have the particle had a strike rate of about a
26:07shot
26:08get a big hundred DDP
26:09get a big hundred there's a push for two
26:11he's going to get it
26:16it is a brilliant shot
26:21i just love the control
26:23and the stay on the shot
26:25batswing or just sheer timing
26:27it is timing
26:28it is timing but you've got to have that time to create the timing
26:36just a single
26:41keeper thinks there's something
26:43bowler looked very mild
26:49i think i think he's misjudged it
26:53i think i think he's misjudged it
26:53because i think he waited back
26:57i think
26:57i think
27:00what a way to get to a 50
27:03tell you what this is
27:0550
27:08oh
27:09ishan kishin
27:12give him a bat
27:15at the moment with the gloves he's struggling
27:21to be back into the attack
27:24hundred comes up
27:25for rcb at a similar state
27:30this is some knock by Dev Dev Padikal
27:32we talked about over 700 runs
27:35in the Vijay Hazari trophy
