During a match against Sunrisers Hyderabad on Sunday, Lucknow Super Giants’ Nicholas Pooran experienced an unfortunate moment that led to his dismissal in an unusual manner. This incident occurred in the 14th over while he was at the crease facing Shivang Kumar.<\/p>\n
Attempting a sweep shot, Pooran made contact with the ball but mistakenly believed it had passed the wicketkeeper, prompting him to venture for a run. In reality, the ball had gone straight into the gloves of Ishan Kishan, who quickly removed the bails. This miscalculation proved costly for LSG, as they lost their fourth wicket at 105 runs while pursuing a target of 157.<\/p>\n
Earlier in the match, Mohammed Shami’s outstanding opening spell was crucial in helping the Lucknow Super Giants limit Sunrisers Hyderabad to a total of 156 for 9. This achievement was made possible despite a remarkable counterattack from Heinrich Klaasen and Nitish Kumar Reddy, who formed a solid partnership.<\/p>\n
With LSG facing a challenging position at just 35 for 4 after 10 overs, Klaasen (62 runs off 41 balls) and Reddy (56 runs off 33 balls) adopted an aggressive approach, leading to a record fifth-wicket partnership of 116 runs in just over 10 overs.<\/p>\n
However, after the quick dismissal of both batsmen, LSG regained control and managed to restrict SRH to a score below 160. Shami’s exceptional bowling figures of 4 overs, 9 runs, and 2 wickets, including 18 dot balls, significantly hindered the SRH batting lineup, which saw prominent players like Travis Head (7), Abhishek Sharma (0), and captain Ishan Kishan (1) return to the pavilion early.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, the hard-hitting Liam Livingstone was also dismissed, thanks to LSG captain Rishabh Pant’s clever wicketkeeping. Nonetheless, the momentum shifted dramatically during the latter half of the innings, as the next five overs yielded an astonishing 79 runs. Leg-spinner Digvesh Rathi, who had initially bowled well, conceded 36 runs in his following two overs after allowing only 10 runs in his first two.<\/p>\n
