The England bowler Brydon Carse, representing Sunrisers Hyderabad, won't be playing the match against Kolkata Knight Riders due to a practice-related injury. Notably, SRH will tour Kolkata for their match on April 2nd, which is tomorrow. Earlier Carse missed the match against Royal Challengers Bengaluru due to a hand injury, which has reportedly not healed yet. In 2025, he could not play the entire IPL due to a toe injury on his left foot he sustained during the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy. Carse had initially aggravated the toe during England's white-ball tour of India earlier that year, but the condition worsened during the tournament, forcing him to withdraw from both the Champions Trophy and the subsequent IPL season. SRH eventually signed Wiaan Mulder. But this time, the squad has players to fill the gap. They have England’s David Payne and Sri Lanka’s Eshan Malinga even though they are missing their key bowler Pat Cummins.

Sunrisers Hyderabad began IPL 2026 with fireworks but still ended on the losing side as Royal Challengers Bengaluru chased down 202 in record-breaking fashion at the Chinnaswamy. Asked to bat first, SRH were rocked early at 29/3, but stand-in skipper Ishan Kishan produced a sensational counterattack, smashing 80 off just 38 balls with eight fours and five sixes. Aniket Verma then provided the late push with a stunning 43 off 18, lifting SRH to a competitive 201/9. However, the total proved far from enough. RCB responded with one of the greatest chases in IPL history, reaching 203/4 in only 15.4 overs — the fastest successful 200-plus chase in the tournament. Virat Kohli remained unbeaten on 69 off 38, while Impact Sub Devdutt Padikkal’s explosive 61 off 26 turned the momentum decisively. Despite Kishan’s brilliance, SRH’s bowling failed under pressure, leaving the franchise stunned in the season opener. Meanwhile, KKR lost to Mumbai Indians by 6 wickets. KKR, thanks to Ajinkya Rahane's 67 and a half century from Angrish Raghuvanshi, posted 220 runs on board. But Mumbai eventually won the match with a 148-run partnership from Rohit Sharma and Ryan RIckleton,
