Ishant Sharma has been a revelation for the Delhi Capitals in the ongoing IPL season. The veteran Indian seamer has given constant breakthroughs to David Warner throughout the season and once again produced a ripper in the match against the Punjab Kings.
Surprisingly, Livingstone was promoted to number 3 after the fall of Shikhar Dhawan, but the Englishman failed to justify the choice and went back to the pavilion for just 4.
In the 5th over, Ishant bowled a cross-seam delivery on the middle stump and Livingstone, who was struggling for proper timing up until then, decided to step down the track, but he missed his attempted wild slog as the ball rattled the stumps.
Livingstone was shocked with his attempted shot, but Ishant was jubilant after picking up the crucial wicket. After the wicket, Ishant gave a 'sweet goodbye' sign to Livingstone.

One brought the downfall of another as PBKS promoted Jitesh Sharma at 4, and the keeper-batter was sent back by a brilliant delivery from Axar Patel.
At the time of writing, PBKS are 55 for 3 inside 8 overs, with Prabhsimran Singh batting at 25.
