During the 52nd match of the 11th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) between Delhi Daredevils (DD) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at Delhi, Delhi Daredevils’ Harshal Patel and Vijay Shankar thwacked Dwayne Bravo for 26 runs in the last over of the innings.
Earlier Mahendra Singh Dhoni, captain of Chennai Super Kings, won the toss and chose to field. Chennai Super Kings included Lungi Ngidi into their playing eleven in place of David Willey. On the other hand, Delhi Daredevils included Glenn Maxwell and Avesh Khan in place of Jason Roy and Junior Dala.
After getting to a mediocre start, it seemed that Delhi Daredevils would once again progress on the back of Rishabh Pant. That being said, the swashbuckling wicket-keeper batsman failed to convert into his start to a substantial score.
After 19 overs, Delhi Daredevils’ score had reached 136-5 and they were is desperate need of a final touch to their innings. It was at this point in time that Harshal Patel (3) and Vijay Shankar (1) hit four sixes in an over to bolster their team’s chances.
On the first ball of the over, Patel hit first six through the long-on region. On the third delivery, Shankar read the slowness of the ball as he hit Bravo for a towering six over deep mid-wicket. On the penultimate delivery of the over, Bravo once again bowled in the arc of the batsman and ended up getting hit for a six over his head. Bravo went from bad to worse, bowling the last ball as a full-toss, which the batsman hit down the ground to accumulate 26 runs off the over.
