TimeOut: The IPL match review show

No Riyan Parag? No Ravindra Jadeja? No fast start for Vaibhav Sooryavanshi? No problem for Rajasthan Royals (RR) as they hunted down 221 against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) and moved up to No.4 on the points table. If RR also win their final league game against Mumbai Indians on Sunday, they will firm up their playoffs spot, irrespective of other results.

Match Review: Chennai Super Kings vs Sunrisers Hyderabad (Match 63)

Sunrisers Hyderabad have marched into the IPL 2026 playoffs with a clinical 5-wicket victory over the Chennai Super Kings at Chepauk! Join the Timeout panel as we dissect a monumental Match 63 that officially locked up postseason spots for both SRH and the Gujarat Titans, while leaving Ruturaj Gaikwad’s men facing a steep uphill battle to survive.

The headline act: Ishan Kishan’s responsible yet explosive 70 off 47 balls (7 fours, 3 sixes), anchoring a tricky 181-run chase with precision alongside Heinrich Klaasen’s high-octane 47 off 26 balls. Earlier in the evening, SRH skipper Pat Cummins delivered a captain's masterclass with the ball, picking up 3/28 to systematically dismantle Chennai's star-studded top order.

We move past the scorecard to analyze the tactical data behind Gaikwad’s uncharacteristic, boundary-less 15 off 21 balls, Dewald Brevis’s late damage control (44 off 27), and address the major pre-match blow: MS Dhoni missing out on the home fixture due to injury.

• The Ishan Kishan Blueprint: How the southpaw masterfully controlled the tempo of the chase at the MA Chidambaram Stadium.
