There were three 200-plus innings totals on Super Saturday in IPL 2026: Punjab Kings (PBKS) smashed Sunrisers Hyderabad’s (SRH) 219 with seven balls in hand, and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) stopped Delhi Capitals (DC) for 189 after scoring 212. There was also some healthy wicket-taking along the way. All of that meant some changes to the Orange Cap and Purple Cap boards.
Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, the only batsman to reach 200 runs in the IPL season so far, continues to lead that table but his fellow Rajasthan Royals (RR) opener Yashasvi Jaiswal has been pushed to No. 3 by Heinrich Klaasen.
Klaasen, the SRH No. 4, added to his streak of good scores, hitting 39 off 33 balls on Saturday to complete scores of 31, 52 and 62. That took him to 184 runs for the season, one more than Jaiswal.
For DC, Sameer Rizvi had a second consecutive failure, but his 70 not out and 90 in his first two innings kept him in the top five, at No. 5, with 166 runs. Dhruv Jurel, also from RR, is between Jaiswal and Rizvi.
Also promoted after Saturday were PBKS captain Shreyas Iyer, who now has 137 runs and is at No. 8 after scoring 69 not out in PBKS’s win over SRH, and just behind him, CSK’s star batsmen against DC, Sanju Samson (137 runs, same as Iyer) and Ayush Mhatre (133 runs).
Between RR’s Ravi Bishnoi and Gujarat Titans’ (GT) Prasidh Krishna in the wicket-taking chart is CSK’s Anshul Kamboj, who had his best results of a good season so far on Saturday, taking 3 for 35. He has now taken at least one wicket in each of his outings so far.
Kamboj has eight wickets, one less than Bishnoi and two better than Krishna.
Behind Krishna, with five wickets, are ten others: Jamie Overton of CSK, Vijaykumar Vyshak of PBKS, Krishna’s teammate Rashid Khan, Lungi Ngidi of DC, Prince Yadav of LSG, Jacob Duffy of Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), Vaibhav Arora of Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), Harsh Dubey of SRH and two other bowlers of RR: Jofra Archer and Burger Nandre.
