Chahar’s delivery, pitched on an off-stump line, induced Maxwell to attempt a delicate shot to third man. Unfortunately for Maxwell, he only managed to edge the ball, which was comfortably caught by MS Dhoni behind the stumps. The dismissal left RCB reeling, having lost three wickets in quick succession.

What added to Glenn Maxwell’s disappointment was his visible frustration after getting out. The video capturing Maxwell’s reaction quickly circulated on the internet, highlighting his disappointment with his dismissal.
