Sunrisers Hyderabad have signed Ambrish as a replacement for injured pacer Mavi. The young Indian bowler was his country’s leading wicket-taker at the 2026 Under-19 World Cup, showcasing impressive form in the tournament. Ambrish will now look to make an impact in the IPL.
SRH’s gamble on an untested U-19 star exposes their thin fast-bowling stocks. Ambrish’s domestic record remains patchy outside youth cricket, yet they’re banking on tournament momentum offsetting IPL’s brutal reality. The real problem: Mavi’s injury reveals how under-prepared SRH is for pace rotation. Handing a teenager significant responsibility mid-season is desperation, not strategy. They’ve backed themselves into a corner.
Delhi Capitals face Rajasthan Royals in Jaipur seeking redemption after three consecutive losses. The return of Mitchell Starc and Lungi Ngidi provides a crucial boost to revitalise their IPL 2026 campaign. Rajasthan, meanwhile, arrives high on confidence, presenting a formidable challenge for the struggling Delhi outfit.
Delhi’s three-game losing streak exposes fragile middle-order batting, not just missing bowlers. Yes, Starc and Ngidi return, but the real test is whether captain Rishabh Pant can finally anchor an innings without collapse. Rajasthan’s momentum is genuine, yet Delhi holds a historical edge in head-to-heads. Without Pant delivering under pressure, fresh fast bowlers won’t salvage this campaign. Delhi loses again.
