MUMBAI: Mandeep Singh on Thursday equalled the unwanted record of Rohit Sharma for most ducks in the Indian Premier League history.
Mandeep equalled Mumbai Indians skipper for this unwanted record in match number 50 of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 between Delhi Capitals and SunRisers Hyderabad at the Brabourne Stadium.
In the very first over of the match, Bhuvneshwar Kumar removed DC batter Mandeep for a 5-ball duck.
SRH bowler bowled a short of a good length ball that pitched outside off stump to which Mandeep threw away his bat for defence but the ball got an edge as wicket-keeper Nicholas Pooran collected a comfortable catch.
Mandeep now has been dismissed for a duck in the IPL 14 times and he has surpassed Ajinkya Rahane, Ambati Rayudu, Dinesh Karthik, Piyush Chawla, Harbhajan Singh, and Parthiv Patel to register this unwanted joint-record.
All the aforementioned players surpassed by Mandeep were dismissed for a duck 13 times in the IPL.
India captain Rohit Sharma got out on the score of zero for the 14th time in IPL on April 21 against Chennai Super Kings.
