IPL 2024: Andre Russell’s Classy Reaction to Ishant Sharma’s Yorker Earns Praise on Social Media

In the ongoing match between Kolkata Knight Riders and Delhi Capitals in Visakhapatnam, Ishant Sharma clean bowled Andre Russell with a deadly yorker. The veteran fast-bowler did not have the best outing with the ball before delivering a fine final over. In fact, he was so expensive that Rishabh Pant didn’t even give him a chance to bowl all his four overs in the game. He conceded nine runs in his first over as Phil Salt hit him for two fours. And when he came to bowl his second over and the fourth over of the innings, Sunil Narine took him to the cleaners. The KKR opener hit the DC fast-bowler with three sixes and two fours to amass 26 runs from the over.

After conceding 35 runs in the first two overs, Ishant Sharma did not get a chance to bowl in the game till the last over. And he improved on his expensive overs by bowling a brilliant final over. The right-arm fast bowler had his work cut out for him against a well-set Andre Russell who was batting for 41 off just 18 balls.

However, Ishant Sharma came out on top as he clean-balled the West Indies star with one of the best yorkers of the ongoing IPL 2024. It was a toe-crushing yorker from the India star as Andre Russell fell on the pitch in his attempt. To prevent the ball from hitting the stumps. The ball broke the stumps. After getting out, Russell made a great gesture for Ishant Sharma. KKR all-rounder Ishant Sharma was seen applauding for his stunning delivery.
