Millwall beat QPR to climb back into second in Championship
Millwall's 2-0 win over QPR puts them back in second place in the Championship!
In today's IPL 2026 match, Sunrisers Hyderabad faces Chennai Super Kings in Hyderabad. Key players include Sanju Samson and young pacers Praful Hinge and Sakib Hussain, who aim to continue their strong performances.
Sunrisers Hyderabad will rely on their young pace duo, Praful Hinge and Sakib Hussain, in their IPL 2026 clash against Chennai Super Kings in Hyderabad. Hinge starred in the previous match with figures of 4/34, supported by Hussain’s four wickets, as SRH dismantled Rajasthan Royals.
They will look to replicate that performance against a CSK side where Ruturaj Gaikwad has struggled for form. However, CSK have gained momentum with back-to-back wins, boosted by Sanju Samson’s return to form. Injuries to key bowlers, including Khaleel Ahmed, along with the absence of MS Dhoni and Nathan Ellis, could force CSK to reshuffle their lineup.
Here are the 5 key battles to watch in today's SRH vs CSK clash
This is the headline battle of the match. Samson, known for his aggressive approach in the powerplay, will take on Hinge, who made IPL history in his last outing with a dream opening over during the crucial opening overs Hinge made IPL history in his previous game by dismissing three top-order batters (Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, Dhruv Jurel, and Lhuan-dre Pretorius) for ducks in his very first over. With Samson in red-hot form after his recent century and Hinge brimming with confidence, this clash could set the tone early.
A crucial powerplay contest. Travis Head will look to provide SRH with an explosive start, while Anshul Kamboj, one of CSK’s breakout pacers this season, has consistently picked up wickets early. Head will look to attack Kamboj early to disrupt CSK's rhythm Kamboj has taken at least two wickets in four out of his five games this season.
This middle-overs battle could prove decisive. Klaasen, one of SRH’s most destructive batters, has scored 62 runs off 48 balls against Noor Ahmad but has been dismissed twice. Noor’s variations and control make him a key weapon for CSK after getting back in form.
An explosive rematch. Abhishek Sharma has previously dominated Mukesh Choudhary, smashing him for 27 runs in a single over at this venue in 2025. With Khaleel Ahmed ruled out, Choudhary will have a bigger role, making this a high-risk, high-reward battle in the powerplay.
The key matchups include Sanju Samson against Praful Hinge, as well as the young pace duo of Hinge and Sakib Hussain facing CSK's batting lineup.
Praful Hinge starred in the last match with impressive bowling figures of 4/34 against Rajasthan Royals.
CSK faces challenges due to injuries to key bowlers like Khaleel Ahmed and the absence of MS Dhoni and Nathan Ellis, which may require lineup adjustments.

A battle of contrasting form. While Gaikwad has struggled this season with scores of 6, 28, 7, 15, and 7, he has an excellent record against SRH, averaging over 56 in this fixture. Eshan Malinga, on the other hand, has been a consistent wicket-taking threat and will look to exploit Gaikwad’s early vulnerability.
