Yudhvir Singh takes sweet revenge by dismissing Sunil Narine after back-to-back boundaries

Rajasthan Royals (RR) pacer Yudhvir Singh Charak took the scalp of Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) opener Sunil Narine in the 53rd match of the IPL 2025 season. The speedster provided the Royals their first breakthrough by dismissing Narine, who had smashed back-to-back boundaries, with a perfect delivery.

Ajinkya Rahane won the toss and chose to bat first at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Sunday, May 4. KKR made two changes to their lineup, bringing in Moeen Ali and Ramandeep Singh. Kunal Rathore replaced Nitish Rana, who has a minor injury. Wanindu Hasaranga and Yudhvir Singh also returned.

Jofra Archer opened the bowling attack for the Royals in the match. The England speedster conceded just a few runs in his first over. However, Sunil Narine smashed the first boundary off the fourth ball of the second over from Yudhvir Singh. The left-handed batter also smashed a six off the subsequent delivery.

Your daily dose of cricket!

After being hit for a boundary and a six, Yudhvir came back smartly with an off-cutter. Narine was too early into the stroke and missed the ball completely. It went on to hit the top of the middle stump. The young fast bowler celebrated with a calm gesture, folding his hands in gratitude after an early wicket.
