Buttler Leaves Opposition Stunned With Brave Scoop Shot
Facing a fiery delivery from the UP Nawabs bowler, Tymal Mills, in the last ball of the eighth over, clocked at a blistering 146 kph, Buttler responded with a nonchalant scoop shot, sending the ball soaring over the wicketkeeper's head to the fine leg boundary. The sheer audacity of the shot, coupled with the pace of the delivery, made it a spectacle for the crowd as well as the opposition team.
