IPL 2026: Pujara Believes This Season 'feels Different' Because Of Evolution In Batting
New Delhi: Former India cricketers Cheteshwar Pujara and Sanjay Bangar believe IPL 2026 has redefined T20 batting, with unprecedented scoring rates and fearless intent turning it into the most explosive season in the tournament’s history.
The numbers back that claim emphatically. After 35 matches, teams have scored at an overall run rate of 9.79, while the Powerplay scoring rate has surged to 10 — the highest ever in an IPL season. Batters are no longer easing into innings, with the likes of Abhishek Sharma, Priyansh Arya, Vaibhav Suryavanshi, Prabhsimran Singh, Ishan Kishan and Devdutt Padikkal attacking from ball one.
Pujara believes this is more than just a statistical spike — it reflects a fundamental shift in batting philosophy. “This season feels different because it’s not just one phase, it’s the entire batting approach that’s evolved. Yes, the Impact Player rule has given teams the freedom to go harder for longer, but the sheer volume of 200-plus totals and, more importantly, how often they’re being chased down is outstanding,” he told JioStar.
