sri lankan fast bowler Ishaan Malinga He has become one of the breakout stars of IPL 2026, not only for his stellar performances with the ball for Sunrisers Hyderabad but also for an unexpected off-field talent that has taken social media by storm. The 25-year-old actor recently went viral after a video surfaced online, in which he is seen singing the iconic Bollywood song 'Mera Dil Bhi Kitna Pagal Hai' from the 1991 film Saajan.
The clip, recorded during a team gathering, showed Malinga confidently performing the romantic classic while his SRH teammates, including Ishan Kishan and Prafulla Hinge, joined the crowd to cheer him on. Fans on social media platforms were left in awe of her impressive singing ability and her ease with Hindi music. Many users praised the fast bowler for showing the same confidence off the field that he regularly shows with the ball during matches.
Malinga has enjoyed a successful campaign this season after being picked by Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL 2025 mega auction. Although he came from the Sri Lankan domestic circuit as a promising but relatively untested player, he soon established himself as one of SRH's most reliable bowlers.
The right-arm fast bowler has taken 16 wickets this season and has carved a niche as a dangerous reverse-swing specialist. His role became even more important when SRH captain Pat Cummins missed seven of the team's 11 matches during the campaign.
Meanwhile, Gujarat Titans are set to take on Sunrisers Hyderabad on May 12 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. GT is currently third on the points table with 14 points from 11 matches and has won its last four games. SRH have also found strong form and have won four of their last five matches, including a spectacular win against Punjab Kings. Another win can take Hyderabad to the top of the IPL 2026 points table.
With both teams reaching the right stage of the tournament, the upcoming encounter promises to be one of the most exciting fixtures of the season.
