Washington Sundar struck gold in his very first over when he dismissed a well-set Chris Lynn in the opening match of IPL 2021. After a few initials scare Lynn finally got his timing back and was looking threatening for the Royal Challengers Bangalore. Then RCB skipper Virat Kohli took a risk and introduced Sundar against Lynn in the 13th over of the innings. The move of Kohli immediately paid dividend as Sundar dismissed Lynn in his first over on 49.
Washington Sundar Takes A Brilliant Running Catch To Dismiss Chris Lynn
Washington Sundar bowled the delivery and got a hint of turn and Lynn badly miscued the slog and the ball went miles in the air. With no mid-wicket in place, Sundar knew he had to backtrack and complete the catch on his own. The RCB off-spinner did just that as he made quick ground and completed a brilliant running catch. The MI opener fell one short of his 50 and RCB got a much-needed breakthrough.

Nevertheless, it was a good debut MI debut for Lynn as he scored 49 from 35 deliveries and his knock included 4 boundaries and 3 sixes. Currently, Mumbai Indians are on course to post a total of around 180 which will be a competitive total to chase for RCB. Hardik Pandya and Ishan Kishan are currently batting at the crease and RCB will have to bowl well in the death overs to restrict MI to a below-par total.
