IPL 2021: Deadly Yorker by New Zealand’s speedster, Kyle Jamieson left Krunal’s bat in 2 pieces
A peculiar incident occurred in the first match of IPL 2021. After winning the toss, Royal Challengers Bangalore invited Mumbai Indians to bat first.
Mumbai started off to bat first and captain Rohit Sharma was run out in the fifth over. In the 18th over of inning New Zealand speedster, Kyle Jamieson bowls a no-ball to Krunal Pandya and Pandya pulled it for four. And after that Kyle Jamieson nailed a brilliant Yorker, which breaks the bat of Krunal Pandya and Krunal Pandya is lucky enough that the blade hasn’t fallen onto his stumps. He had completed his swing and the bat was still intact after he’d gone through, with the swing taking it behind him. Then, it just breaks cleanly from the handle and lands safely.
