“ The Way Vaibhav Suryavanshi Strikes The Ball With Such Ease And Power Is Remarkable ”: Sunil Gavaskar
TATA IPL 2026 Today Match MI Vs SRH Live Streaming on JioHotstar
Punjab Kings’ unbeaten run ended after they lost to Rajasthan Royals by six wickets in their TATA IPL 2026 fixture in Mullanpur. Speaking on Star Sports’ ‘Amul Cricket Live’, JioStar experts Sunil Gavaskar and Aditya Tare reflected on the batting approach and performance of ‘Heavyweight’ Yashasvi Jaiswal and ‘Fearless Prodigy’ Vaibhav Suryavanshi, while also previewing today’s MI-SRH match.
Speaking on Star Sports’ ‘Amul Cricket Live’, JioStar expert Sunil Gavaskar spoke about the rising trend of big run chases:
“It was similar to what RCB did to GT, or PBKS did to DC, when they chased 260-plus so comfortably. Once one team does that, others start believing they can do it as well, and that’s exactly what we’re seeing. Since then, we’ve had multiple 200-plus chases, and now even 220-plus totals are being chased with balls to spare. It shows how strongly teams believe that no target, even 220 or 240, is beyond reach.”
On the ‘Fearless Prodigy’ Vaibhav Suryavanshi:
“He made excellent use of the field and picked the line beautifully. The way he strikes the ball with such ease and power is remarkable. What stands out is how unfazed he looks. That’s often the advantage of youth. You play without fear, without worrying about the opposition, and just back your natural game.”
On today’s MI-SRH match:
“MI now need to win every game from here, and they have the capability to do that. It’s just about things clicking for them. The recent loss, especially getting bowled out for 100-odd, was disappointing. Such heavy defeats can hurt them later, particularly in a tight race for the fourth playoff spot.”
Speaking on Star Sports’ ‘Amul Cricket Live’, JioStar expert Aditya Tare analysed Yashasvi Jaiswal’s performance:
“They set the chase up really well, scoring 80-plus in the Powerplay. The opening partnership was crucial, especially when chasing a total in the 220 range. Yashasvi’s biggest strength is control, his cricketing shots are largely risk-free, particularly through the covers and point. That’s what makes him so consistent across formats.”
