Abhishek, Axar Join NADA Testing Pool in IPL Star Shake-Up

Abhishek Sharma from SRH slots into RTP for Q2 2026. Alongside him, DC's Axar Patel steps up too.

India's Abhishek Sharma from SRH and Axar Patel of DC just landed spots in NADA's Registered Testing Pool for Q2 2026. They're stepping in for Smriti Mandhana and Shreyas Iyer from PBKS. That bumps the full list to 348 athletes now. Fourteen cricketers make the cut—Shubman Gill at GT, Jasprit Bumrah with MI, and the rest.

RTP means random doping tests anytime, straight out of the WADA code. Keeps elite cricket clean. No exceptions.
