IPL 2023: Playoffs not easy for Royals! 5 more games, if three men don’t click then out
He is not a part of the Indian team and is only occasionally included in the playing eleven in the IPL. But Ishant has shown the world that the old spark is still left in him in bowling. He gave away only 23 runs in four overs and took two wickets.
There are no other words to describe Ishantheri’s 20th over once morest GT other than spectacular. Because neither captain David Warner nor the watching fans would have thought that he would bring out such magic when the ball was delivered. Because GT scored 21 runs in the previous over bowled by South African speed star Andrich Norkia.
Rahul Tewathia hit the last three balls for a six. Ishant had to defend 11 runs with GT captain Hardik and Tewathia standing at the crease with exceptional finishing skills. A six in the first two balls is pretty much game over.
But Ishant brought out all his experience in this crucial over. Hardy faced the first ball. It was a low wide full toss. Hardik plays it to deep extra cover for two runs. The next ball was a yorker outside off stump. Hardik plays to deep point and takes a single. Tewathia then came to the crease. The moment fans confirmed that GT had won.

But Ishant’s third ball was a wide yorker. Suspecting that it was wide, took GT review but to no avail. This dot ball put more pressure on Tewathea and GT. Tewathia hit a six off the fourth ball. But the calculation was wrong. Straight into Riley Russo’s hands at extra cover when the timing arrow failed.
With this, DC started dreaming of success. GT needs nine runs to win in two balls. The fifth ball was faced by Rashid Khan, who had just come to the crease. It was a wide yorker. He shot to point and managed to score only two runs.
With this, GT needed seven runs to win in the last ball. If a six is hit, the score is tied, then a super over. If Ishant bowls a no ball and it’s a six, GT will win. Rashid faced this crucial ball.
Ishant tried a wide full toss. Rashid swung but missed. Only got a single. With this, DC captain David Warner and his teammates congratulated Ishant. Apart from Daniel Sams (nine runs), Ishant also became the second bowler in the IPL to defend his team’s last over once morest GT in a victory.
Fans are praising Ishant’s brilliant bowling on social media as well. Ishant Sharma is a better Test bowler than Mohammad Siraj. Umesh is smarter than Yadav in Sena countries. Ishant is only 34 years old. Call back to the Indian team. Fans commented on social media that Ishant Sharma has proved that a champion bowler like him should not be written off.
