During the 26th match of the 11th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) between Delhi Daredevils (DD) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at Delhi, Shreyas Iyer Delhi Daredevils’ captain, hammered 29 runs off the last over of the innings bowled by Shivam Mavi. It is the most expensive last over in this season of the IPL.

Dinesh Karthik, captain of Kolkata Knight Riders, had won the toss and chose to field. The Knight Riders included Mitchell Johnson into the playing eleven in place of Tom Curran. Daredevils, on the other hand, dropped their former captain in Gautam Gambhir in place of Colin Munro. Vijay Shankar was included for Daniel Christian.

Iyer, who is captaining an IPL side for the first time in his career, didn’t let the promotion have an adverse effect on his batting as he registered his ninth IPL half-century. In the last over, Iyer’s heroics have put his team in a formidable position.

Mavi, who was bowling his final over, was welcomed with a six over extra cover on the first ball itself. Mavi bowled around the wicket on the next delivery, but ended up being hit for another six over the long on region. On the fourth delivery of the over, Iyer hit a short-pitch delivery for a six over deep midwicket.

On the penultimate ball, Iyer thwacked a four down the ground, on the right side of the long off fielder. Iyer finished the innings with another towering six over the long off fielder. He ended up scoring 93* (40) with the help of three fours and 10 sixes.
