The 18th edition of the Indian Premier League saw many young players creating an impact in their maiden season. One of them was the spinner, Digvesh Rathi, who picked wickets at crucial junctures for LSG and emerged as a breakthrough star.
Digvesh Rathi Continues His IPL Form In A Local T20 Game
The cricketer picked 14 wickets in the season and is now continuing his domination in the local leagues. In the video posted by the official X handle of LSG and their owner, Sanjiv Goenka, Digvesh Rathi is seen picking five wickets in as many balls.
The name of the league is not clear, however, Sanjiv Goenka in his post provides a hint as he mentions that the bowler has done it in a local T20 game. In the video, the batting team seems to be in trouble even at the start of the over, as the equation on the screen shows them needing 113 runs from 36 balls.
Digvesh Rathi then creates more trouble for them, bringing out his googlies to remove one batter after another. Interestingly, four of the five batters were bowled while the final batter was out LBW. Thus, staying true to his strength, Digvesh Rathi kept bowling his accurate stump-to-stump line and it proved too hot to handle for the local batters.

The bowler got fined multiple times and was even involved in a heated conversation with Abhishek Sharma. However, nothing deterred him and he continued his way throughout the season.
Thus, despite controversies, Digvesh Rathi's bowling is doing all the talking and it would be interesting to see his progress in the upcoming tournaments.
