These are the moments that make you respect a side like Karnataka. Not just for producing match-winners for India over decades, but for the sustained dominance and winning culture they’ve built in the domestic circuit. Punjab, without doubt, has produced some absolute match-winners for the country. But the consistency, domination & title-winning legacy at the domestic level is still something to aspire to. As a cricket fan who comes from the incredible land of Punjab, I genuinely wish to see the state grow into a powerhouse like this one day in all formats, not only in white-ball. #PUNvKAR #RanjiTrophy #IndianDomesticCricket

Karnataka Win 👏 They qualify for the quarters & the celebrations say it all 👌 Captain Devdutt Padikkal finishes it off in style and remains unbeaten on 120*(85)💥 What a brilliant performance & what a fantastic chase 🔥 Scorecard ▶️ bcci.tv/domestic/ranji-troph… @IDFCFIRSTBank | #RanjiTrophy | @devdpd07

🚨 Punjab's SMAT 2026 squad is out! 🚨 Few exciting picks, but some notable omissions too. My take: 🔹 Happy picks: Sahil Bhaskar & Kartik Chadha get deserving opportunities. Vihaan Malhotra also makes the cut in T20 side after his Ranji debut last month. 🔹 Biggest surprises: No Sanvir Singh or Ashwani Kumar. Both are the names I expected to see. Hopefully, both will be added as the tournament progresses. 🔹 No Harnoor Pannu either. Another top-order option missing. 🔹 Mayank Markande misses out AGAIN, following his Ranji Trophy snub. I genuinely believe he deserves a place in Punjab's white-ball setup. My preferred batting plan: 🔹 Prabh and Vihaan should open initially, with Uday Saharan at No. 3. 🔹 Once Prabh leaves for India A, Vihaan can open alongside Uday or Vishwa Pratap Singh. 🔹 One thing I feel strongly about: Uday MUST bat in the top three throughout the tournament. He has the ability to bat anywhere in the top 4, but Punjab should give him a defined role. (1/2) The rest of the squad is broadly on expected lines. Will share my expected playing XI tomorrow. What surprised you the most? Which omission bothers you? And who makes your XI for the opening game? Let's hear your views! 🏏 #SMAT #SMAT2026 #UdaySaharan #KartikChadha #VihaanMalhotra #SahilBhaskar #PunjabCricket

🚨 Ramandeep Singh to lead Punjab in SMAT 2026! 🚨 His first assignment as captain of the Punjab senior team! Has previously led Mohali Kings in Sher-E-Punjab and Mohali in the Senior Inter-District tournaments. Led his team to the Katoch Shield (senior inter-district red-ball tournament) title this year and also bagged Player of the Match in the final. Well-deserved opportunity! Best of luck, skipper! @Raman___19 @pcacricket #RamandeepSingh #SMAT #SMAT2026 #PunjabCricket @KKRiders @KkrKaravan

🔹As a Punjab cricket & Abhishek Sharma fan, would have liked him to play 1 or 2 games, just like Prabh. Especially given how important first 2 games are for us. 🔹 Hopefully, Naman Dhir joins after the NZ tour. 🔹 And Umesh Yadav !? I understood PCA's decision to bring him in for red-ball cricket, but do we really need him in T20 cricket as well? A very different format and skillset. (2/2) #SMAT #AbhishekSharma #SMAT2026 #PunjabCricket

1/n | Punjab's probable squad for SMAT 2026–27 🏏🔥 Punjab arguably have one of the most explosive batting units in domestic T20 cricket. But player availability could complicate our plans. My probable 18-member squad: 🏏 Batters/WKs: Abhishek, Prabhsimran, Anmolpreet, Naman Dhir, Salil Arora, Harnoor, Uday Saharan ⚡ All-rounders: Ramandeep, Sanvir 🎯 Spinners: Harpreet Brar, Mayank Markande, Raghu Sharma, Kartik Chadha 🔥 Pacers: Arshdeep, Gurnoor Brar, Ashwani Kumar, Sahil Bhaskar, Sukhdeep Bajwa Player availability concern and more in next tweet! #SMAT2026 #PunjabCricket #SMAT #DomesticCricket

🚨 They heard it! Sahil Bhaskar gets picked in Punjab's SMAT 2026 squad! 👏 Welcome addition, especially with Arshdeep Singh & Gurnoor Brar unavailable. Why I'm excited about this pick: 🔥 Highest wicket-taker in Sher-E-Punjab 2026 🎯 Best bowling average & strike rate in the tournament ⚡ Deadly yorkers & excellent death-over skills 💥 Effective slower bouncers and cutters 🏏 Can be a genuine death-bowling option for Punjab. Hope he makes the most of this opportunity! #SahilBhaskar #SMAT #SMAT2026

3/3 | Punjab’s biggest concern: FIX THE PACE ATTACK Last season, our batting has scored ample runs throughout the tournament. But, our young & inexperienced fast bowling fell short particularly when defending big totals in the Super League. (Toss also played a huge factor) 🔹Arshdeep's availability is uncertain, Gurnoor could remain with the Indian Test setup and Ashwani Kumar needs support. 🔹 One player I really hope the selectors back is SAHIL BHASKAR. 20 wickets in Sher-E-Punjab T20 2026, tournament's leading wicket-taker 🔹 Harpreet Brar, Ashwani Kumar & one of Mayank/Raghu/Kartik should form the bowling core when Arsh/Gurnoor aren’t available . But we desperately need another reliable specialist pacer, preferably two, rather than consistently relying on Ramandeep/Sanvir/Naman to complete four overs. Punjab already have the batting firepower to beat any domestic side. Give this batting lineup a dependable pace attack and we can genuinely challenge for our second SMAT title! 🏆 #SMAT #PunjabCricket #HarpreetBrar #Ashwini #NamanDhir #Ramandeep #Sanvir #SMAT2026
