E2BET: Suyash Sharma : Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) leg-spinner Suyash Sharma got the better of Punjab Kings (PBKS) batter Shashank Sharma in the Qualifier 1 of IPL 2025 on Thursday, May 29. The match is being played at Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium, Mullanpur, Chandigarh.
After being put to bat first, PBKS got off to a miserable start as they lost five wickets within seven overs. Suyash was brought into the attack in the ninth over and struck straightaway, getting rid of Shashank on the second ball.
The swashbuckling batter went for the slog sweep but was undone by the googly. He failed to get any connection, and the ball ended up crashing onto the stumps. Shashank scored just three runs off five balls during his brief stay at the crease.
Suyash celebrated the wicket with his version of the “I’m here” celebration.
