In the high-pressure world of T20 cricket, a strong start with the ball can make all the difference. Trent Boult, the experienced fast bowler for Rajasthan Royals, has become a master of this art, consistently delivering early breakthroughs for his team.
In a recent match between Rajasthan Royals and Mumbai Indians, Trent Boult, the star bowler for Rajasthan Royals, was on fire! Rajasthan won the toss and chose to field first. Boult, with his excellent bowling skills, got rid of Mumbai’s top batsmen early on in the game. He dismissed Rohit Sharma and Naman Dhir one after the other in his very first over!
Boult’s bowling continued to be a nightmare for Mumbai. In his second over, he sent back another batsman, Dewald Brevis. Incredibly, all three batsmen Boult dismissed were bowled out without scoring a single run! Because of Boult’s fantastic bowling, Rajasthan was in a very strong position to win the match. Fans online praised Boult for his amazing bowling performance, where he only gave away 22 runs in 4 overs and took 3 wickets! Fans took to social media, praising Boult as he registered brilliant figures of 4-0-22-3.
Mumbai’s batting line-up struggled to recover from Boult’s early blows. Although their captain Hardik Pandya and Tilak Varma tried to score some runs, scoring 34 and 32, respectively, they weren’t able to make it big. Even their overseas star Tim David could only muster up a 17-run knock from 24 balls. Mumbai ended up with a low score of 125 runs after their 20 overs.
While Boult was the star with the ball for Rajasthan early on, leg spinner Yuzvendra Chahal, another bowler for Rajasthan, also took 3 wickets in the middle overs. Nandre Burger also grabbed 2 wickets while Avesh Khan claimed 1, shattering Mumbai’s line-up. Rajasthan easily chased down the low score of 125 and won the match.
Trent Boult’s ability to swing the ball early on in the game makes him a very dangerous bowler, especially in the first 6 overs. Because of his excellent bowling skills, Rajasthan has been able to win their first two matches of the IPL season.
