Impact Player rule has made it harder to bowl in IPL: Chahal <div id="content-body-70906502" itemprop="articleBody"><p>Yuzvendra Chahal on Saturday said the Impact Player rule has made life tougher for bowlers in the IPL, but the Punjab Kings spinner is glad that the team’s batters have consistently compensated by chasing down big totals this season.</p><p>Punjab’s bowlers have conceded 200-plus totals in four of their seven matches this season, along with 195 in another outing.</p><p>However, its batting unit has repeatedly risen to the occasion, successfully overhauling daunting targets.</p><p>“It’s not easy to bowl in IPL, especially when you have an impact player. But the best thing is that if we are conceding 210 runs, then our batsmen are able to overhaul the target. We are trying our level best (to be better),” Chahal told reporters after PBKS’s win over Delhi Capitals.</p><p>Introduced in 2023, the Impact Player rule allows teams to substitute anyone in the playing XI with one of the five listed substitutes at any point of the match.</p><p>“Dealing with the impact sub rule can be a bit challenging, but you simply have to adapt because that is what the tournament requires. This is the direction that the format is headed in and we have to find solutions because we cannot change it.”</p><p><b>ALSO READ | <a href="https://sportstar.thehindu.com/cricket/ipl/dc-vs-pbks-ipl-2026-rahul-century-punjab-kings-highest-run-chase-delhi-capitals/article70905748.ece" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Rahul century goes in vain as Prabhsimran, Shreyas help Punjab Kings complete highest-ever chase</a></b></p><p>Chahal was effusive in his praise for Punjab opener Prabhsimran Singh, who blazed his way to a scintillating 26-ball 76 and stitched a blistering 126-run opening stand with Priyansh Arya, laying the foundation for Punjab Kings’ six-wicket win over Delhi Capitals as they completed the highest successful run chase in T20 history with seven balls to spare.</p><p>“It is very hard to bowl to him. Everyone takes (Heinrich) Klaasen or (Nicholas) Pooran’s name. But I have bowled to him in practice matches and it is very hard to bowl to Prabh, especially in the 6 overs.</p><p>“He has worked very hard in the last 2-3 years. The way he has batted today, it is because of the hard work of the last 2-3 years. As a bowler, I am happy that he is in my team because I have bowled to him. Ricky has had a massive influence on him.”</p><p>Reflecting on the mindset in the dressing room ahead of the daunting chase, Chahal said the team remained confident of pulling off it. “We accepted the total and we were all feeling very positive before the innings. We know the quality we possess with the bat.</p><p>“It was a batting friendly wicket. We needed an excellent start if we wanted to chase this total, and we got just that and more from Prabhsimran and Priyansh. After the first 6 overs, we knew we were in the driving seat,” he added.</p><p class="publish-time" id="end-of-article">Published on Apr 25, 2026</p></div> #Impact #Player #rule #harder #bowl #IPL #Chahal

The United Nations’ maritime agency has highlighted the plight of seafarers trapped in the Persian Gulf, saying the weeks-long closure of the Strait of Hormuz was taking a high toll on the crews.
International Maritime Organisation secretary general Arsenio Dominguez said that at least 10 seafarers had been killed in 29 attacks on vessels in the Gulf and around the Strait of Hormuz since the beginning of the US-Israel war on Iran.
In addition, several vessels had been seized and detained in the region in recent days while thousands of seafarers remained trapped in the area, Dominguez said on Friday.
“My call is to release the seafarers because they are not at fault,” he said.
“The situation is not improving. I reiterate: there is no safe transit anywhere in the Strait of Hormuz.”
Dominguez added: “I spoke to a seafarer who had been trapped in the Persian Gulf for more than six weeks. Aside from the exhaustion and toll on mental health of the crews, they feel invisible, that they are not valued. There is much more we need to do.”

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi arrived in Pakistan on Friday evening ahead of a second round of peace talks with the United States, in an effort to restore calm in the region.

Shortly after Araghchi’s arrival, his ministry clarified that any talks between Tehran and Washington would be indirect, with messages conveyed to Pakistani officials instead.
Araghchi wasted no time and met late Friday with Pakistan Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar and Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir.
On Saturday morning, he met with Munir and Pakistan’s Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi, officials said.
US special envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are also due to head to Pakistan on Saturday. Vice President JD Vance will not attend but will instead be on standby in case his presence is “necessary,” the White House said.
A first round of negotiations already took place in Pakistan earlier this month but both sides failed to reach a deal.
Pakistan has emerged as the leading mediator in efforts to end the war, with an initial round of negotiations already held in the capital earlier this month.
However, both sides failed to reach a deal, and as a result, Iran was initially reluctant to send another delegation to Islamabad for a second round.
Islamabad appeared to be under near-lockdown on Saturday morning, with soldiers and police stationed at key intersections, posted on rooftops overlooking major roads, and helicopters circling overhead. Checkpoints, road closures and diversions across the city, particularly near the so-called “red zone” surrounding the negotiation venue.
Commercial flights resume at Tehran’s airport
Meanwhile, Iran has resumed commercial flights at Tehran’s international airport on Saturday, the first time its done so since the conflict with the US and Israel broke out late February.
Flights bound for Istanbul, Oman’s capital of Muscat and the Saudi city of Medina departed from the Imam Khomeini International Airport, Iran’s state-run media reported.
Three Istanbul-bound flights were seen departing on Saturday morning on the Flightradar24 tracking platform.
Iran’s airspace has largely remained closed since 28 February, but partially reopened earlier this month when the first ceasefire was announced.
