Thursday, 23rd April 2026, IST 21:00 hrs, IPL 2026 – CSK vs MI
🌙The Night of Revelation 🌸🌸🌸
That evening, as I returned home around 9 pm and sat for dinner, the IPL match between Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians was unfolding.
I did not know that Krishna was about to teach yet another lesson through this game, just as He had during Tilak Verma’s miraculous century earlier..
🔮The Whisper of Truth 🌸🌸🌸
Sanju Samson was batting on 71, with four overs left. I told my wife, “Sanju is a down‑to‑earth person. He has struggled much in his career and put in an immense effort.”
She smiled and asked: “आज क्या आप संजू सैमसन से सेंचुरी करवाओगे!? और आपको इसके बारे में कैसे पता?”
I replied with faith: “संजू सैमसन की सेंचुरी कई बार मिस हो गई। आज इसकी सेंचुरी देखनी है मुझे और वह आज सेंचुरी बनाएगा।”
🏏 The Divine Century 🌟
At the end of the 18th over, Sanju was on 78. Bumrah bowled the 19th, restricting him to 85. My wife looked at me in doubt, but I said with conviction “He will, No doubt in it. I had a premonition of seeing him making a century just when I started seeing the match today” & instantly my Krishna said: “लो मेरे मणि तुमने कहा और हो गया.”
The final over began. Sanju hit a six, reaching 91. Two dot balls followed. Three balls left, nine runs needed. I told my wife: “A six and a four, he will make century – my Krishna said he will hit, means he will hit.”
And it happened. Another six took him to 97. A dot ball followed. Everyone’s heartbeat kind of stopped for that one last ball. But Krishna had already snapped His fingers stating, “It’s done.” On the last ball, Sanju struck a boundary — completing his century: 101 off 54 balls. His innings powered CSK to 207.
My wife was stunned. This was no dream or vision, but a live, real‑life communication with Krishna. And Krishna whispered: “Faith on me should not be 100%, it should be 101%. Then Grace will definitely fall in. Like Tilak Verma scored 101 (45 balls) & today Sanju 101 (54 balls) – that is your 101% Faith bringing Grace upon them. So Mani, keep your faith stronger and help my Creation in sustaining Dharm.”
🔱 The Second Leela – Mumbai’s Collapse 🌊
CSK had set 207. MI needed 208. My wife, a passionate Mumbaikar, always hoped for victory. But Krishna’s play was different.
CSK scored 207-6. MI needed 208 to win the match and this score wasn’t that tough for MI to score. MI batting commenced and I said today too MI will win, but God knows what went wrong, my wife who being a Mumbaikar, loves MI team the most, all of a sudden nodded her head, “नहीं हर बार आपकी वाणी सच हो ऐसा नहीं हो सकता, आज MI हारेगी!?” I though shocked at her statement, who never misses any match of MI and always dies hard to see them win, today it went in opposite direction. I knew, Krishna Leela had started. And you won’t believe what Krishna made me say next, “कोई बात नहीं, आज मैं अपनी राधा रानी को खुश करूँगा। चलो आज MI हार जाएगी।“ By this time 2 openers of MI were on the crease, 1st ball a dot ball, 2nd a dot…but then a 6 came in…
My wife though she told me that MI will lose today, and I confirmed yes, they will, stared at me as if saying, “You are going to be proven wrong, not every time God communicates so effectively.” I just smiled at her looks as my Krishna from within and outside said, “It’s done Mani, today MI will lose.” Next ball, right there in the very first over, MI lost it’s first wicket & my wife now was upset on the fall of the 1st wicket and looked at me.
I reiterated: “आज मैं अपनी राधा रानी को खुश करूँगा। चलो आज MI हार जाएगी।”
She said, “No…!?” I said, “तीर कमान से निकल चुका है राधे|” Meaning, now MI will loose and that’s final, words once said and promise once given is a promise never to be broken.
Within the first three overs, MI collapsed to 11/3 & now my wife almost lost all her hopes of seeing MI Win this match of IPL 2026. Yet, she was confident on the next batsman Surya Kumar Yadav & of course on Tilak Varma who hit 101 (45 balls) in previous match of MI v/s GT, wherein She had seen my real-time communication with Krishna and had witnessed how miraculously Tilak Varma made his century just in last few overs of the match, taking MI to a win.
⚔️ The Test of Pain 🌸🌸🌸
Suryakumar Yadav came in, and Krishna made me say: “आज सूर्यकुमार यादव को बहुत बार लगेगी और जोरदार मार खाएगा बिचारा, बहुत कोशिश करेगा, लेकिन सफल नहीं हो पाएगा।”
And so, it was Surya who took painful blows, Tilak Verma tried to resist, but destiny was sealed. I told my wife, “Today is the day of Sanju Samson and not Tilak Varma. This is how destiny unfolds & that’s Krishna’s will.”
MI were bowled out for 104. CSK triumphed by 103 runs.
It was Krishna’s sign — the journey of Mumbai Indians had begun, and destiny was shifting before our eyes. Yet another Strong Real-Life Experience & Example of FAITH & GRACE…

This match was not just about cricket. It was Krishna’s leela unfolding in real time:
🌸 Sanju’s century symbolized the fruit of humility and perseverance blessed by divine grace.
🌸 MI’s collapse reflected the dangers of ahankar — ego clouding clarity and leading to downfall.
🌸 The lesson of 101% faith — Krishna revealed that true grace descends only when faith surpasses the ordinary.
🌸 Destiny and dharm: Just as words once spoken cannot be withdrawn, promises made in Krishna’s name shape reality
🌸 Closing Reflection
Though my wife was upset at MI’s loss, I reminded her: cricket, like life, is a stage for Krishna’s leela.
Destiny unfolds, actions are performed, and Krishna guides the outcome. And even in defeat, Krishna whispered another promise: “Mumbai Indians will reach the Finals.”
