Delhi Capitals opener Prithvi Shaw has been reprimanded and fined 25 per cent of his match fee for breaching the IPL Code of Conduct during their six-run loss to Lucknow Super Giants here on Sunday. "Mr Shaw admitted to the Level 1 offence under Article 2.2 of the IPL Code of Conduct and accepted the sanction," IPL said in a statement.

After a poor start to the season, Ruturaj Gaikwad returned back to form during Chennai Super Kings' match against SunRisers Hyderabad at the MCA Stadium in Pune. Gaikwad smashed a brilliant 99 as CSK went on to post a total of 202 for two in 20 overs. During his knock against SRH, Ruturaj completed 1,000 runs in the IPL. It took Gaikwad just 31 innings to reach the milestone, the joint-fastest Indian to do so. Batting legend Sachin Tendulkar, who plied his trade for the Mumbai Indians, also took 31 innings to achieve the feat.
MS Dhoni walked out for the toss for the first time since his return as Chennai Super Kings captain on Sunday against SunRisers Hyderabad. And a day after it was announced that he was returning as skipper due to Ravindra Jadeja stepping down from the role, the iconic wicketkeeper-batter also dropped a cryptic hint on his future with the franchise that he has now led in every season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) it has participated in, since the inaugural edition in 2008.
Unheralded Uttar Pradesh left-arm pacer Mohsin Khan put up an exceptional bowling performance as Lucknow Super Giants beat Delhi Capitals by six runs on Sunday, thereby taking a giant stride towards qualifying for the IPL play-offs. It was skipper KL Rahul's 77 off 51 balls and newly promoted Deepak Hooda's 52 off 34 balls that propelled LSG to an imposing 195 for 3 despite stuttering towards the end of the innings.
Chennai Super Kings on Saturday announced that Ravindra Jadeja was stepping down from the captaincy role, with the reins of the team being handed back to long-time skipper MS Dhoni. The decision came midway through the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season, with the franchise struggling near the bottom of the points table. Former India captain Sunil Gavaskar said that the decision would serve the team well as decision making would become a more instant process. He pointed out that Jadeja had been consulting Dhoni for some decisions, but now, Dhoni could just take the calls directly.
SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) face Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in Match 46 of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season, at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune on Sunday. SRH are currently fourth in the IPL 2022 Points Table with 10 points from eight fixtures (including five wins and three defeats). In their previous outing, SRH crashed to a defeat against Gujarat Titans (GT), losing by five wickets. But the franchise also had many positives to look at including Umran Malik's five-wicket haul. Meanwhile, CSK are ninth in the standings with four points from eight fixtures (two wins and six losses). The franchise lost to Punjab Kings (PBKS) in their previous fixture, losing by 11 runs. The upcoming fixture will also see MS Dhoni take over CSK's captaincy from Ravindra Jadeja. Jadeja had taken over the baton from Dhoni ahead of the ongoing season but hasn't been at his best yet.

Ahead of the start of IPL 2022, MS Dhoni has sent shockwaves across the cricketing world when he handed over CSK's captaincy to all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja. On Saturday, the franchise dropped another bombshell when it was announced through a statement that Jadeja was giving the CSK captaincy back to Dhoni in order to focus on his game. CSK's statement also added that Dhoni accepted to lead CSK "in the larger interest". CSK, who are the defending IPL champions, have had a torrid time in the ongoing season, losing six off the eight games that they have played so far.
