Yuzvendra Chahal has been in fantastic form in IPL 2022 as he is the leading wicket-taker in the season so far. He has picked up more than 20 wickets in the season.

He continued his great run against Punjab Kings on Saturday afternoon. In the 15th over of the first innings, he trapped Jonny Bairstow in front of the wicket to bag his 3rd wicket of the match.

Bhanuka Rajapaksa and Jonny Bairstow then added quick runs. But Yuzvendra Chahal accounted for Rajapaksa’s wicket. He then in the 15th overcame back to get the wicket of Mayank Agarwal who tried to hit him out of the ground. In the same over he got Bairstow’s wicket as well.

Bairstow tried to turn the ball on the leg side, but he missed the ball completely as it hit his pads, the on-field decision was out, but Bairstow thought the ball might miss the stumps. But to his dismay, it was the umpire’s call. After being 89-1 in 10.2 overs PBKS slumped to 119-4 in 14.4 overs. PBKS have been in the past guilty of wasting good starts as they have lost wickets in crumble in the middle on many occasions in the tournament so far. The good thing for the franchise though is that Liam Livingstone was still on the crease.

Jonny Bairstow before getting out to Yuzvendra Chahal scored his first fifty of the season. He looked at his best as he opened the batting for the 2nd consecutive time in the tournament. It is his preferred position as he had shown in the past playing for Sunrisers Hyderabad.
