🏏 Indian Premier League (IPL) Updates
Vijay Shankar has made a dramatic return to the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) after a decade. The all-rounder expressed excitement about returning to the iconic Chepauk stadium and mentioned his willingness to bat at any position for the team. He also credited MS Dhoni for inspiring his career during his earlier stint in the IPL.
In a surprising twist, David Warner, one of IPL's most prolific openers, went unsold in the IPL auction. The Australian star, who led Sunrisers Hyderabad to a title, was not picked up, likely due to concerns about his recent form and availability.
Legendary AB de Villiers spoke highly of Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB)'s recent auction picks, suggesting that Virat Kohli might return as captain. He expressed confidence in the team's balance and depth for the upcoming season.
Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) owner, Sanjiv Goenka, reacted humorously to a viral meme following their record-breaking ₹27 crore bid for Rishabh Pant. He assured fans that he balances strictness with leniency, making for an entertaining post-auction story.
