IPL 2023: RR's Yuzvendra Chahal creates history, becomes first Indian to reach THIS milestone
April 2, 2023
In Indian Premier League (IPL), Chahal is now on joint-second spot alongside Sri Lankan Lasith Malinga with 170 wickets. Among Indian bowlers behind Chahal in T20s are Ravi Ashwin with 288 wickets in 297 matches and Mumbai Indians spinner Piyush Chawla with 276 wickets in 262 matches.
In the match, Royals lost the toss and were asked to bat first. Rajasthan made SRH play instantly with their openers Jos Buttler and Yashasvi Jaiswal hitting 54 each. Skipper Sanju Samson also played a blistering knock of 32-ball 55 as Royals posted 203/5 in their 20 overs.
SRH's chase got derailed in the very first only after Trent Boult bowled a double-wicket maiden to start off the second innings. SRH could never come back from that and could manage only 131/8 in their 20 overs. The only highlight for SRH was last couple of overs of their batting when pacer Umran Malik and batsman Abdul Samad hit some huge blows and added 37 runs for the ninth wicket.
