🏏IPL 2026: SRH vs RR, Eliminator At New Chandigarh🏏 - Page 89

RR are going to Qualifier 2. SRH are going home. And this has been a royal thumping by RR, who win the game by 47 runs. All smiles in the RR camp. They came into this game with a 3-0 record at New Chandigarh, they have made it 4-0. The win was set up by a jaw-dropping 29-ball 97 by 15-year-old boy winder Vaibhav Sooryavanshi. His innings helped RR storm to 243, which believe it or not felt a touch underpar. But Jofra Acrher bowled like the wind in the powerplay, nipping out Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma and Ishan Kishan. Once that happed, and Punja removed Klaasen it was curtains for SRH. RR will now remain at New Chandigarh and will play GT on May 29 in Q2. Can they make it five in five?

Pat Cummins, SRH captain: [On Vaibhav Sooryavanshi] He played pretty well. A very good pitch but the margins are so small, you miss our yorker but he doesn't miss. Pretty good wicket. We are a very well rounded team. [On the newer bowlers in the team] Praful and Sakib were great. We are one of the youngest team to get into the playoffs, and the coaching team have unearthed a few gems. [On the chase] A few teams things have to go right to chase 245 but we lost a couple of wickets at the wrong time. One tiny bit away from being in the top two, but can't doubt the boys' efforts.

I feel RCB has chances to win again this season.

I want the team to win… like it’ll be their second trophy. They have put in plenty of hard work.

Except social media will be unbearable because of *some* fans.

I swear

Problem is Gill winning will make him Captain in all formats for India.

No offense but RCB has a lot of rabid fans.

Any team winning is just gonna be bad on social media.

Jofra Archer: I bowled alright. Usually the team that gets most wickets in the powerplay wins, and we did that. [Bowling to the SRH top order] You just got to hold your nerve. Your good balls and bad balls are going to the boundary so you have to hang in there. [On Sooryavanshi] It was very exciting. The more runs he scores, the more runs we have to defend. He can get 150. [How to bowl to Sooryavanshi] I'll tell you after the IPL. [Road to the final] One game at a time. We are going at the right direction. We don't want to happen to us what happened to Kings XI.

SandyKam: "GT, SRH same story. Dependent heavily on 3 batters and if they fail, you are done. RR also in same boat, but they got lucky today with Baby Boss delivering. RCB on the other hand are solid until 8, hence deserving winners."

Besties here too Gill, Ishan haha

Rohit: "I can't imagine the kind of records VS can break if he plays like this till he is 40. He will be on Top of every list by the time he is 30 or even sooner."
