The excitement for the Tata IPL 2026 Auction is growing. The big event, where teams fight to buy the best players, will take place on December 16 in Abu Dhabi. A total of ten teams will take part in the IPL. Royal Challengers Bengaluru are the defending champions.

As per the latest update, all ten franchises have confirmed their retained players for the 2026 season. A total of 173 players have been retained, including 49 overseas players.

Delhi Capitals will enter the IPL 2026 auction with a purse of Rs 21.80 crore. The Delhi-based team can sign eight more players in the auction, and they still have five overseas slots to fill.

Here is a look at five possible targets for DC in the IPL 2026 auction.

1. Rachin Ravindra

Rachin Ravindra is a good long-term option for the Delhi Capitals. He can replace Faf du Plessis at the top of the order. He plays aggressive cricket and can also bowl when needed. The New Zealand batter has played 18 IPL matches for CSK and has scored 413 runs.

2. Jamie Smith

Jamie Smith is another player Delhi Capitals can target in the auction as a top-order batter. He opens the innings for England in ODIs and has already shown his talent in international cricket. Smith has not played in the IPL yet, but he has featured in 97 T20 matches and scored 1,687 runs so far.

3. Shai Hope 

West Indies batter Shai Hope has been in great form recently, and the Delhi Capitals may want to sign him again in the auction. The West Indies ODI and T20I captain played nine matches for DC in IPL 2024 and scored 183 runs with a strike rate of 150.

4. Matheesha Pathirana

Sri Lankan pacer Matheesha Pathirana is available in the IPL 2026 auction, and Delhi Capitals, like many other teams, may be interested in signing him. Pathirana has taken 47 wickets in 32 IPL matches played so far.

5. Gerald Coetzee

Gerald Coetzee

South Africa’s Gerald Coetzee is another pacer Delhi Capitals may target in the IPL 2026 auction. Coetzee has played 14 IPL matches for MI and GT and has taken 15 wickets.

New Zealand dominated the third day of the first Test against the West Indies, thanks to centuries from Tom Latham and Rachin Ravindra. They started Day 3 at 32/0, and the opening pair of Latham and Devon Conway continued to bat confidently. The duo took the score close to 100, but Conway was dismissed for 37, ending the opening stand of 84 runs.

Kane Williamson could not make an impact and was dismissed for just nine runs. But Latham and Rachin took full control after that. They built a huge partnership, attacking the bowlers all over the ground, with Rachin hitting several boundaries on his way to a brilliant hundred.

By stumps, New Zealand had reached 385/3, riding on a dominant 279-run partnership between Rachin (176) and Latham (145). They had started the day 96 runs ahead, and by the end, they were completely in command of the match.

Latham and Rachin’s Complete Dominance

Both Tom Latham and Rachin Ravindra reached their centuries and kept scoring freely even after crossing the milestone. It turned into a tough and tiring day for the West Indies bowlers, who were hit all around the ground and struggled to take wickets.

The long partnership finally ended when Kemar Roach dismissed Latham for a superb 145. Their 279-run stand is now the second-highest partnership by a New Zealand pair against the West Indies in Test cricket.

Soon after, Rachin also fell for a brilliant 176, losing his wicket to Ojay Shields, who picked up his first scalp of the day. His dismissal came just three overs before stumps. Despite the two late wickets, New Zealand were clearly dominant and ended the day on 417/4, with Will Young unbeaten on 21 and Michael Bracewell on 6.

New Zealand head into Day 4 with a massive lead of 481 runs. It remains to be seen how long they will continue batting and what target they will set for the West Indies. By the time the second new ball was taken, New Zealand were already more than 400 runs ahead, with Rachin moving past Latham’s score. Roach broke the huge stand with an inswinger that brushed Latham’s inside edge, while Rachin later fell to a surprise yorker from Shields.

Even with the late breakthroughs, New Zealand added 184 runs in the final session, leaving West Indies facing a huge challenge.

Brief scores:

New Zealand 231 & 417/4 (Rachin Ravindra 176, Tom Latham 145; Kemar Roach 2-61) lead West Indies 167 by 481 runs.

The 1st ODI game of the three-match series is scheduled to take place on Sunday, November 17th at Hagley Oval, Christchurch. New Zealand entered this series following a 3-0 victory over England in late October and early November. In all three games, chasing won the game, and both teams in this match will have to consider this at the toss since batting first in preferential conditions for bowlers seems to make a big difference in New Zealand during this time of year.  

The West Indies will play their first game since losing a three-match away series against Bangladesh 2-1. The West Indies team's only victory in the series came via a Super Over, while their two defeats were both very heavy, losing the opener by 74 runs and the third ODI by 179 runs.

<![CDATA[New Zealand Openers Set To Part Ways With CSK Ahead of 2026 Retention List]]> https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/new-zealand-openers-set-to-part-ways-with-csk-ahead-of-2026-retention-list/ https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/new-zealand-openers-set-to-part-ways-with-csk-ahead-of-2026-retention-list/ Sat, 15 Nov 2025 17:46:41 GMT

Devon Conway will not be part of the Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2026, ending his three-year journey with the team. The New Zealand opener joined CSK in 2022 and became a fan favourite because of his calm batting style and consistent performances. But after CSK’s poor season in 2025, the team is planning major changes. Reports say that Rachin Ravindra may also leave the franchise.

CSK bought Conway for ₹6.25 crore at last year’s auction, while the team kept Ravindra for ₹4.25 crore using the right-to-match card.

What Conway & Rachin Did for CSK

Conway’s form dropped sharply in 2025 after he missed the 2024 season. He was one of CSK’s best batters in 2023, scoring 672 runs in 15 innings at an average of 51.69. But after returning in 2025, he could not repeat that success. He scored only 156 runs in six innings, averaging 26 with a strike rate of 131.09. Since CSK spent ₹6.25 crore on him in the mega auction, the team expected more stability at the top. His poor form hurt CSK’s start and affected their season.

In 2022, Conway scored 252 runs in seven innings at an average of 42 and a strike rate of 145.66. His best season was 2023, when he became the league’s third-highest run-scorer and played a key role in the final against the Gujarat Titans, scoring 47 off 25 balls. Across three seasons, he made 1,080 runs in 29 matches, averaging 43.20 with a strike rate of 139.72.

Rachin Ravindra joined CSK in 2024 and scored 413 runs in 18 innings with a strike rate of 143.60. He hit two fifties but often failed to convert good starts into big scores.

CSK’s Auction Plan

Conway’s exit is part of a big rebuild planned by CSK for the 2026 season. Reports say several players — including Rahul Tripathi, Deepak Hooda, Vijay Shankar and Jamie Overton — may also be released.

The biggest move is the major trade: Ravindra Jadeja and Sam Curran have joined Rajasthan Royals, while India’s star wicketkeeper-batter Sanju Samson has moved to CSK.

The fifth and final game of the five-match series is scheduled to take place on Thursday, November 13th at the University Oval in Dunedin. New Zealand has been brilliant in this series. Despite the close defeat in the first game, they have performed well against the opposition.  

The visiting team started out strong in the series opener, but the home team made a stunning comeback, winning back-to-back narrow victories. The West Indies had a chance to keep the series alive if they won the fourth T20I, but the rain gods' intervention led to the match ending without a result.

New Zealand is preparing for this series after a mixed T20 international season last month, where defeats to Australia and England disrupted their rhythm. Despite this, they are still a strong team in their homeland and will back themselves to take on the West Indies with great strength.

On the other hand, West Indies are entering this T20 series led by Shai Hope, who is backed by experienced names such as Jason Holder, Akeal Hosein, and Rovman Powell. After sweeping Bangladesh 3-0 away from home, the team is in high spirits, which has given them strong momentum for this clash.
