The IPL is not dying. But for a section of fans, it has become flatter, longer, and less surprising. That feeling is not coming from nowhere.

Padikkal's comeback is not just about runs again. It is about illness, a stalled career, public doubt, and the hard work of becoming a more convincing version of himself.

I was born in India, moved to the UK at 10, and spent my teenage years staying up until 3am for cricket. Now India have won a third T20 World Cup and I'm struggling to feel much at all.

India's third title, Finn Allen's 33-ball century, 780 sixes, and a near-500-run semi-final. The 2026 T20 World Cup didn't just break records. It broke them in clusters.

The wagon wheel maps every scoring shot a batter plays, turning an innings into a picture you can read in seconds. Here's how it works and what it reveals.

A Manhattan chart plots runs scored per over as a bar chart. It's the quickest way to see when an innings accelerated, stalled, or exploded.

The ball log records every delivery in an innings, dots, singles, boundaries, wickets, in the exact order they happened. It's the innings stripped to its raw sequence.
