Subramaniam Badrinath

Former India batter Subramaniam Badrinath picked his IPL 2026 league-stage best XII, leaving out Virat Kohli and KL Rahul. He chose Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and Shubman Gill as openers, with Sai Sudharsan, Heinrich Klaasen, and Rajat Patidar in the batting lineup. His bowling-heavy squad included Krunal Pandya, Sunil Narine, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Jofra Archer, and Kagiso Rabada.

Krunal Pandya battled severe cramps to anchor Royal Challengers Bengaluru's thrilling IPL 2026 chase against Mumbai Indians in Raipur. His resilient 73, despite immense pain, kept RCB alive.

Pandya emphasized sheer willpower and courage in overcoming the painful cramps.

The game, featuring ex-CSK players against the current squad, saw Hussey, now the batting coach, hit a big shot off Ruturaj Gaikwad's bowling, much to Dhoni's amusement. The event celebrated CSK's legacy with a crowd of enthusiastic fans.
