In a thrilling showdown between the Rajasthan Royals and the Mumbai Indians during the 17th edition of the IPL, Trent Boult, the fast bowling sensation of RR, etched his name in the annals of IPL history. 

In a fiery opening over at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Boult notched a significant milestone by claiming the prized wicket of Rohit Sharma, catapulting himself to the top of the charts for the most wickets in the first over in IPL history.

With this pivotal scalp, Boult surpassed the previous record holder, Bhuvneshwar Kumar of Sunrisers Hyderabad, who had held the record with 25 wickets. Boult's tally now stands at an impressive 26*, solidifying his reputation as one of the most lethal new-ball bowlers in the tournament's history.

The left-arm pacer's ability to strike early blows has been a crucial asset for Rajasthan Royals, and his prowess in the powerplay overs has often set the tone for his team's success. Boult's knack for extracting movement and generating bounce makes him a nightmare for opposition batsmen in the crucial first six overs of the game.
