the show where we chat all things IPL 2026.

From the shots to the stories. Every week, we're joined by a couple of guests to unpick all of the action.

And I'm so pleased to say this week I'm joined by former England All Rounder and somebody who knows the franchise world very well, Sammit Patel, and of course

Traitors Legend, who by the way has got a new wardrobe for us.

I had to change it up, didn't and my dad was giving me some stick for huddies, so I thought I'll come in looking a bit more professional. We're so used to seeing you in a hoodie. I know. I do like the quarter zip. I said you just come back from your corporate job. Oh, he can't be doing that. I'm feeling quite casually.

I've got the bag of jeans on as well, do you know what I mean?

No, seriously, it's great to see you both. We've had a couple of weeks off. A lot has happened. So tell me what have we liked the look of. We're very much into the tournament now, a good few weeks in. Samit, what have you enjoyed? Well, that young, young boy, 14 year old, not 14 anymore, but Vébe, Suravanchi, what a player. We've seen him grow from last year, even better now. We had a great under-19 World Cup. That match, winning knock in the final. And he just kicked on nice in the start of the IPL and to get 100 and come out and play bummer the way he did, it's been fantastic. The numbers are ridiculous. 246 runs in six innings. And he's 15 years old. The 78 of 26 balls against RCB as well. Unreal. Yeah, it's unbelievable. I think to be that age, I can't think when I was 15, I couldn't

hit the ball from the 30-yard circle and he's clearing bummer and all sorts. It's ridiculous

and just like the way he plays the confidence, the fearlessness.

I think, to be honest, I think India should be having him in the squad and the T20 squad very soon.

I was going to say future India talent.

Absolutely. I'd be surprised that they'd add him around the squad in the T20 squad very soon. I was going to say future India talent? Absolutely.
