Gujarat Titans suffered their first loss of IPL 2022 on Monday as they were beaten comprehensively by Sunrisers Hyderabad. Titans' captain Hardik Pandya scored a fluent half-century but their total of 162/7 was never going to be an easy one to defend and the Sunrisers reached the target with 5 balls to spare as openers Kane Williamson and Abhishek Sharma gave their team a good start.
Michael Vaughan is highly impressed by Sunrisers Hyderabad pace bowler Umran Malik. The 22-year-old pacer from Jammu and Kashmir was introduced into the attack in the seventh over and he started off by bowling a bouncer to Hardik Pandya which went on to hit his helmet. The pacer bowled the fastest delivery of IPL 2022 so far clocking 153.3 Km/hr against Gujarat Titans here at the DY Patil Stadium on Monday. He bowled at 153.3 Km/hr speed during the 15th over of Gujarat innings. "Umran Malik will play for India very soon..... If I was the @BCCI I would be sending him to play some County cricket this summer to help him develop first though," said the former England captain Michael Vaughan on Twitter.
Chennai Super Kings will look to register their first win this season when they take the field against Royal Challengers Bangalore in the 22nd game of IPL 2022 at Dr DY Patil Sports Academy in Navi Mumbai. CSK have failed to find their mojo this season and they are in desperate need of a win.
Malaysian cricketer Virandeep Singh bowled a remarkable over, which saw six wickets fall in six consecutive deliveries in a Nepal Pro Club Championship T20 match.
Rashid Khan has been steady without being extraordinary like previous years and the reason for that is the safety first approach by opposition batters during this edition of IPL, feels Gujarat Titans spinner. Rashid has taken six wickets from four matches at an economy rate of 6.68 but batters across teams have negotiated the Afghan great pretty well. But the 23-year-old, who is among the most sought-after leg-spinners in franchise cricket around the world, is not surprised and says it's just a matter of time.

After losing their first four games, Mumbai Indians (MI) will look to get their season up and running when they face Punjab Kings (PBKS) in match 23 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) on Wednesday. MI were comfortably beaten by the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in their previous game while Punjab Kings (PBKS) were edged out by Gujarat Titans (GT) in a last ball thriller. The Rohit Sharma-led MI have been pretty inconsistent in both departments, and will look to put on an all-round show against a well-drilled PBKS side.
