CHENNAI: Despite being stretchered off the field at Chittagong last week, Bangladesh’s Mustafizur Rahman was fizzing with energy and delivered a stellar performance, securing Chennai Super Kings’ six-wicket victory over Royal Challengers Bengaluru here on Friday. In a mere span of 10 deliveries, Mustafizur, aka Fizz, decimated RCB’s top order and completely shifted the momentum of the game by scalping four crucial wickets -- Faf du Plessis, Rajat Patidar, Virat Kohli and Cameron Green.
On Friday night, the left-arm medium seamer had more variations in his pace than colours in an artist’s palette. Apart from that, his leg-cutters and flexible wrist action were like precise brushstrokes. And, the Chepauk wicket turned out to be the perfect canvas for Fizz to showcase his masterpiece.
