Rashid Khan showed his skills once again to torment the Rajasthan batters in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) match.
He played with the mind of fellow spinner Ravichandran Ashwin and knocked his stumps over with a beauty of a delivery, that is a dream for every spinner.
The magical delivery was bowled in the 8th over. Rashid deliberately bowled back-to-back leg-breaks and perhaps Ashwin was expecting the third one to be a googly, but he was outfoxed by the champion spinner.
He bowled a leg-break on a good length that pitched on the stumps and spun away from Ashwin, who was waiting for the googly and played the wrong line. The ball beat his outside-edge and castled the stumps as Ashwin was shocked and couldn't believed what just happened.
The game witnessed another ball of the match delivery, when Noor Ahmed, Rashid Khan's Afghan and GT teammate, followed his footsteps and bowled a pearler to rattle Devdutt Padikkal's wicket.
Talking about the match, Gujarat have taken control of the match. Rajasthan are struggling at 81 for 6, with Rashid Khan weaving his magic with the ball against a tottering batting lineup.
