Trent Boult and his first-over wickets is a love story to behold! The man has been picking wickets for fun with the new ball for more than a decade now, and in the Qualifier 2 between Rajasthan Royals and Sunrisers Hyderabad, he has once again stepped up and has got the wicket in his very first over.

Sanju Samson won the toss and decided to bowl first with a hope that his bowlers will provide the early breakthrough. Trent Boult as always did not disappoint him, and after getting hit for a six and a four, he got the big wicket of Abhishek on the final delivery.

It was a sharp short delivery on the off-stump line by Trent Boult and Abhishek without getting into a good position tried to power it away towards the leg side. He ended up getting a top edge though, and the ball ballooned towards backward point where Tom Kohler-Cadmore took an easy catch.

The wicket was an important one for RR as SRH openers have played a big role in their success this season, and if they don't depart in the Powerplay, they have absolutely destroyed the opponents.
