The crowd gasped in amazement during a tense cricket match. A 15-year-old opener produced an explosive display that stunned spectators at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh Stadium in New Chandigarh on Wednesday.
The Rajasthan Royals batsman scored 97 runs from 29 balls, striking five fours and twelve sixes against Sunrisers Hyderabad. His innings broke the record for most sixes in a single IPL season, reaching 65.
Dhruv Jurel followed with a brisk half-century from 21 deliveries. Rajasthan Royals posted 243 for eight, though the total reflected some middle-order struggles after a strong start. The team then bowled out Sunrisers Hyderabad for 196 to secure a 47-run victory and advance to Qualifier 2 against Gujarat Titans.
Jofra Archer claimed three early wickets with rapid pace bowling, leaving the opposition at 57 for four. A later dismissal further confirmed the result on a flat pitch dominated by the Royals opener, who fell three runs short of a century.
