Delhi Capitals’ paceman Kagiso Rabada is one of the many fast bowlers who has impressed in the current IPL edition. The 2020 IPL season has witnessed four super-over games thus far as the teams have fought tooth and nail to win games out of nowhere. Kagiso Rabada, who has performed outstandingly, is left impressed with the skill level of the players.
On Sunday, both the matches got dragged into the super over. The game between Kolkata Knight Riders and SunRisers Hyderabad went down to the wire as KKR seamer Lockie Ferguson exhibited a brilliant spell of bowling across phases to give his side two crucial points. Lockie Ferguson conceded only two runs in the super over as the Knight Riders prevailed comfortably.
The second game between Kings XI Punjab and Mumbai Indians in Dubai witnessed double super overs as both the sides refused to wilt. Jasprit Bumrah of Mumbai Indians and Mohammed Shami of Kings XI Punjab kept the opposition to only five runs in the first super over. It was Chris Gayle and Mayank Agarwal, who sealed the deal for KXIP as Trent Boult was unsuccessful in defending nine in the second super over before Chris Jordan kept things tight against Kieron Pollard and Hardik Pandya.
Kagiso Rabada hails the skill level of the players:
