At this point, IPL 2026 is simply Sooryavanshi’s season.

[House_of_Cricket @Houseof_Cricket]

Are we officially into RCB era?

Consider this:

On April 25, 2024, RCB needed to win 6 out of 6 just to stay alive. Almost everyone had written them off.

What followed was one of the greatest turnarounds in IPL history.

Not only did they qualify that season - they carried the momentum into the next, and won the IPL.

And today, they opened IPL 2026 with a win.

So since April 25, 2024, no team has won more matches than RCB.

18 wins from 23 games. Only 5 losses.
A win/loss ratio of 3.6 - and the second-best team in this period doesn't even come close to half of that.

Surely, it’s the winners who write the stories… but not always...

More than a decade ago #OnThisDay, New Zealand were humbled in the final of the 2015 World Cup in front of 93,000 at the MCG.

But what Brendon McCullum ignited during that campaign still lingers.

Fearless starts. Openers swinging like there’s no tomorrow. A mindset shift.

If you see openers doing this now, it is this man you credit.

You don’t always need a trophy to start a revolution.

Sometimes, one man is enough.

With all due respect, for all the talent Harry Brook possesses and the performances he's delivered, game awareness is something he seriously needs to work on.

Jasprit Bumrah's first ball in the semi-final, and Brook just whacks it—half-heartedly, no less!

Yes, 253 is a big chase, but can't you see Bumrah's first few deliveries settling in?
Especially when your batting relies so heavily on you, and the arrival of dew is set to flip the game's dynamics.

Thoughts?

This is illegal

Jasprit hasn't just made Indians use to some of the most outrageous bowling spells....he has actually set a standard so high for the future generations that no matter how great you perform you just can't be Bumrah

Just like Wasim Akram did for Pakistan or James Anderson did for England

Viv Richards in the 80s: SR 91.

The top 10 run-scorers of that era (excluding Viv) struck at just 67 on average.
He was surely playing a different sport.

Happy Birthday, Sir Isaac Vivian Alexander Richards!!!!!!

[House_of_Cricket @Houseof_Cricket]

This young boy took on 254, all by himself - and nearly pulled it off.
The world will never forget this!!!

God has its own algorithm.

Building up to the T20 World Cup, Samson was in awful form. In fact, since 2025 he had batted in 16 innings, crossed 50 just once, averaging 16 at a strike rate of under 130.

And then, on the biggest stage, he turned up.

Two of the most scintillating knocks you will come across, delivered under immense pressure.

The game of course... has some
strange ways of rewarding belief...!!

Some stories write themselves.
Some innings are destined for immortality.
Tonight was one of those.
Sanju… Samson.

A late cut often feels like hesitation… A cover drive???? It’s an absolute confession!!!

A catch so spectacular that the fielder almost apologised to the batter:

There are some players whose impact can never be measured by a scorecard.
Rinku Singh is definitely one of them.
