IPL: Virat's Gesture, Rohit's Record & Ajinkya's Grit Steal The Show |First Sports With Rupha Ramani

The IPL 2026 season has kicked off with a blockbuster opening weekend, but while veterans like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and Ajinkya Rahane turned back the clock with dominant performances, a controversy off the field has garnered attention. Karnataka state politicians continue to demand special access for MLAs. This has reignited the debate around VIP culture in Indian cricket. As players prove that no one is above the game, why do politicians still seek privilege over fans? Rupha Ramani breaks down the stunning performances, the entitlement row, and why this reflects a deeper disconnect between power and the spirit of sport.

Also on the show, PSL 2026 is under scrutiny as the Lahore Qalandars face ball tampering allegations following a dramatic final over against the Karachi Kings. With penalties, denials, and growing outrage, serious questions are being raised about PCB’s handling of the controversy. And Max Verstappen has hinted at retirement. With a difficult start to the 2026 season, Verstappen has sparked controversy both on and off the track. Is the latest threat a result of the poor start, or is there a deeper concern?
