‘Incredible’ dive effort stops six before IPL game ends insane

Kings XI Punjab and West Indies cricketer Nicholas Pooran produced an incredible performance in their team’s thrilling defeat in today’s Indian Premier League, which the great Sachin Tendulkar called “the best save I have ever seen. “.

Pooran dove completely over the boundary rope to deny Rajasthan Royals batter Sanju Samson a six and threw the ball over the rope before hitting the grass.

However, it was not enough to stop a mad comeback from the Royals.

Rahul Tewatia broke five sixes in an over on Kings XI Punjab’s pacemaker Sheldon Cottrell when the Rajasthan Royals achieved the most successful chase in Indian Premier League history with three balls to spare.

Rajasthan won by four wickets when Tewatia turned the game around in 18 against Cottrell, which was 30 runs. The West Indies fast pitcher’s fifth ball was the only delivery not hit by six.

Left-hander Tewatia scored 53 of 31 as Rajasthan went 226-6 in 19.3 overs. Tewatia’s hit eclipsed Mayank Agarwal’s first hundred IPL in Punjab’s strong 223-2 total after Rajasthan captain Steve Smith won the draw and opted to line up.

Smith (50) and Sanju Samson (85) scored energetic half centuries to keep Rajasthan in the chase, but it was Tewatia’s late attack that gave Rajasthan two wins in two IPL games.

Punjab has two points from three matches and their only win was against Royal Challengers Bangalore.
