Arshdeep Storms Into Purple Cap Top 3

Arshdeep Singh라이브 바카라 3 for 16 against LSG not only helped Punjab Kings clinch a 37-run win but also elevated him to third place on the Purple Cap leaderboard. The left-arm quick now has 16 wickets from ten games, tied with CSK라이브 바카라 Noor Ahmad and MI라이브 바카라 Trent Boult but ahead due to better average and economy.

GT's Prasidh Krishna (19 wickets) and RCB라이브 바카라 Josh Hazlewood (18) lead the chart. KKR's Varun Chakravarthy also climbed to 15 wickets after a key spell versus RR.

Orange Cap Race Intensifies with Jaiswal and Prabhsimran on the Move

Yashasvi Jaiswal라이브 바카라 34 against KKR took his season tally to 473 runs in 12 innings, moving him to fourth on the Orange Cap list. RCB라이브 바카라 Virat Kohli (505) continues to lead, with GT라이브 바카라 B Sai Sudharsan (504) and MI라이브 바카라 Suryakumar Yadav (475) closely trailing.

PBKS라이브 바카라 Prabhsimran Singh surged to 437 runs after a scintillating 91, pushing him to seventh place and above LSG라이브 바카라 Nicholas Pooran.

Rinku Singh라이브 바카라 Heroics Seal One-Run Thriller for KKR

Rinku Singh might have hurt himself but left his mark in KKR라이브 바카라 heart-stopping one-run win over RR. He scored a 6-ball 19 to push KKR past 200 and then delivered a match-saving run-out of Jofra Archer off the final ball.

Despite Riyan Parag라이브 바카라 six-hitting spree and Shubham Dubey라이브 바카라 fight, Rinku라이브 바카라 throw sealed the win and kept KKR in playoff contention.

Mitchell Owen Replaces Glenn Maxwell at PBKS

With Glenn Maxwell ruled out due to a finger fracture, PBKS have roped in Australian all-rounder Mitchell Owen as a replacement for ₹3 crore. Owen, currently with Peshawar Zalmi in the PSL, will join PBKS post-May 9 or as late as May 18, depending on Zalmi라이브 바카라 playoff qualification.

He was eligible for IPL replacement duty despite missing the main auction shortlist.

PBKS, KKR Climb IPL 2025 Points Table

Harsh Dubey Joins SRH as Smaran라이브 바카라 Replacement

SRH라이브 바카라 mid-season replacement saga continued as Karnataka라이브 바카라 R Smaran was ruled out due to injury. In comes Vidarbha라이브 바카라 Harsh Dubey, a left-arm spinner who set a new Ranji Trophy record this year with 69 wickets.
