DC vs KKR IPL 2024: DC vs KKR IPL 2024: Sunrisers Hyderabad posted a classic “side-eye” tweet during the last phase of the first innings, as Kolkata Knight Riders were pummeling Delhi Capitals bowlers all around the park. The ripple effects of KKR’s destruction of DC bowlers were felt in Hyderabad, especially after SRH had recently broken the record for the highest team score in a match. Witnessing that record being snatched by KKR in a matter of days was truly astounding. But that didn’t happen, KKR could manage 272/5 and in the end, beat Delhi by a huge 166-run margin.
Nevertheless, DC captain Rishabh Pant orchestrated a moment of sheer brilliance that warrants repeated viewing.
Rishabh Pant’s No Look Six In DC vs KKR IPL 2024 Match
Rishabh Pant returned from a lengthy injury layoff just a couple of weeks ago, marking his first competitive appearance in DC’s opening IPL 2024 match against Punjab Kings. However, since his return, he has displayed a resolute determination and a sense of unwavering focus, seemingly driven by a desire to compensate for the time lost due to his injury. He scored 18 (13, 2X4, 0X6) vs Punjab Kings, 28 (26, 2X4, 1X6) Rajasthan Royals, 18 (13, 2X4, 0X6) vs 51 (32, 4X4, 3X6) vs Chennai Super Kings before the match against KKR. It’s an impressive return for a player who was out injured since December 2023.
Even during the chase, which was a lost cause as soon as KKR hit 272, the 26-year-old refused to yield without a fight. He exhibited vigor, determination, and resilience, delivering moments that merit revisiting. And one of those moments was a no-look six. Watch:
NO LOOK SIX BY RISHABH PANT….!!!! 🔥🫡pic.twitter.com/IXg736aihr
