Ishant Sharma amazed everyone with a fantastic yorker that knocked down Andre Russell during the IPL match between Delhi Capitals and Kolkata Knight Riders on Wednesday.
Ishant”s delivery was so spectacular that even Russell couldn’t help but praise the delivery as he walked back to the dugout.
The video of this moment went on social media.
With KKR at 264 runs in the last over and Andre Russell playing fiercely, Ishant, often forgotten in cricket discussions, delivered a toe-crushing perfectly aimed yorker.
It zipped low, swerved sharply toward the stumps, and slid under Russell’s bat, sending him sprawling on the ground. Russell, acknowledging the skillful delivery, applauded Ishant as he got up.
The ball’s speed flashed on the screen—144 kph. Despite being considered past his prime at 36, Ishant Sharma, a reminder of Indian cricket’s past, showed that he still possesses the talent and passion to compete at the highest level.
Despite Ishant’s great effort, KKR still scored a huge 272/7 in their 20 overs against Delhi Capitals.
However, without Ishant’s wicket of Russell, KKR could have set a new record for the highest runs scored, beating Sunrisers Hyderabad’s total of 277.
