Shreyas Iyer reflects on Punjab Kings’ first defeat in IPL 2026, says ‘bit short in our bowling’

Chandigarh: Punjab Kings suffered their first defeat of the IPL 2026 season, losing by six wickets to Rajasthan Royals. Chasing 223 runs, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and Yashasvi Jaiswal launched a perfect start, but once they departed, the visitors were put under immense pressure. Especially after captain Riyan Parag departed for 29 runs. However, Donovan Ferreira, who struggled in the ongoing season so far and Impact Player Shubham Dubey changed the complexion of the game, launching a scathing attack as their partnership of 77 runs won the game for Rajasthan. Ferreira played a phenomenal knock of 52* runs off 26 balls that…

Personality test: Cup, guitar, or clock? What you choose first reveals if you are creative, a nurturer or planner

Have you ever noticed how two people can look at the exact same picture and pick totally different things? One person spots the cozy cup of tea/coffee, another sees a guitar in the corner, and a third is checking the clock to see if they’re running late. And depending on what you choose first, a lot can be decoded about your true nature and hidden strength. Interesting, isn't it?Our brains are essentially giant filters. We don't see the world as it is; we see it as we are. This quick little exercise isn't meant to be a psychological diagnosis, but…

Rajasthan Royals end Punjab Kings’ unbeaten streak in IPL 2026; Openers, Ferreira, Shubham steal show

Chandigarh: Punjab Kings’ unbeaten run in the IPL 2026 came to an end as they suffered a six-wicket defeat to Rajasthan Royals in Mullanpur. Batting first, the hosts had a perfect start to the game, with openers Prabhsimran Singh and Priyansh Arya setting the tone of the game. Keeper-batter Prabhsimran, who is in remarkable form in the ongoing season, registered yet another half-century, as Punjab were on song. After he departed for 59 runs, the middle order stumbled for a while, as captain Shreyas Iyer struggled to keep the scoreboard ticking. He made 30 runs off 27 balls as Punjab…

Why is Ravi Bishnoi not playing for RR vs PBKS in IPL 2026 clash in Mullanpur?

Chandigarh: Rajasthan have dropped Ravi Bishnoi in their IPL 2026 clash against Punjab Kings in Mullanpur.

Notably, in Rajasthan’s previous game against Sunrisers Hyderabad, Bishnoi was brought in as an Impact Player, but he bowled just one over, conceding 16 runs. Apart from that, Rajasthan have also made another change in personnel for the game against PBKS. The visitors have dropped out-of-form batter Shimron Hetmyer for…

Retail petrol and diesel prices have remained unchanged for a record fourth year, even as conflict in West Asia has pushed crude oil costs up more than 50 per cent over the past two months. The widening gap between input costs and pump prices has left state-run fuel retailers incurring heavy losses - with some estimates…
