[Watch] Yuzvendra Chahal Bowls A Ripper To Dismiss Gujarat Titans Skipper Hardik Pandya In The IPL 2022 Finals

Rajasthan Royals spinner Yuzvendra Chahal bowled an absolute ripper to dismiss Gujarat Titans skipper Hardik Pandya in the finals of the Indian Premier League 2022 season. The all-rounder had to walk back to the hut for thirty-four runs.

Hardik Pandya walked out to bat at number four after the dismissal of Matthew Wade in the fifth over. The Gujarat Titans were in a spot of bother, having lost two for 23 runs, chasing 131. Hardik got together with Shubman Gill to stabilize the innings and built a partnership. Together they put on 63 runs for the third-wicket partnership.

In the fourteenth over, Yuzvendra broke the stand to provide the Rajasthan Royals with a much-needed breakthrough. Chahal bowled a leg-break delivery, drifting on the middle and the leg stump. Hardik played the ball with no footwork and edged it straight to the slip fielder. Yashasvi Jaiswal did the rest to send the all-rounder back to the hut.

Interestingly, on the previous ball, Hardik was not happy with his batting partner Shubman Gill not running for a third run. Pandya paddled a ball for a couple of runs and wanted a third, however, Gill declined the run.
