New Delhi. When Andre Russell is at the crease and hits long sixes, cricket fans are often left with open mouths. But such a scene was seen in IPL 2024 on Wednesday, which surprised everyone. Andre Russell, who instills terror in the bowlers, was lying face down on the pitch. The one who made them helpless is none other than India’s favorite bowler. Ishant Sharma, who was dropped from Team India 3 years ago, had created this condition for Andre Russell.
Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Delhi Capitals (DC) competed in IPL 2024 on Wednesday. In this match, KKR defeated Delhi team by 106 runs. This match was one-sided and barring a few moments, there was an atmosphere of celebration for KKR.

This celebratory atmosphere of KKR was spoiled once by Ishant Sharma and second time by Rishabh Pant. In the last over of KKR’s innings, Ishant Sharma hit Andre Russell in such a way that he would hardly be able to forget it. This scene can remain in the minds of the audience for a long time.
When the 19th over of KKR’s innings ended, its score was 264 runs for 5 wickets. Andre Russell had scored 41 runs on 18 balls. Seeing Andre’s tremendous form, fans were expecting that he would explode in the 20th over as well. But this over belonged to Ishant Sharma and he won it very well.
Yorked!

Ishant Sharma clean bowled Andre Russell on the very first ball of his over. Russell was out on all fours in front of an inswinging yorker bowled at a speed of 144 km per hour. Russell got angry and fell on his face. The bullets scattered in the air.
This ball of Ishant Sharma was so accurate that even Andre Russell could not live without praising it. Russell stood up and made a clapping gesture in praise of Ishant.
