Top bowling performances on IPL debut: Where do Praful Hinge and Sakib Hussain’s exploits figure on all-time list? Sunrisers Hyderabad’s pacers Praful Hinge and Sakib Hussain took the Indian Premier League (IPL) by storm on Monday after delivering a scorching display with the ball against Rajasthan Royals.
Hinge picked three wickets in the first over of RR’s chase before Hussain nabbed the dangerous Yashasvi Jaiswal in the following over. In his second over, Hinge removed skipper Riyan Parag to leave RR reeling at 9/5 inside three overs.
Both pacers, making their IPL debut, picked four wickets each as SRH romped to a 57-run win for its second victory of the season.
In an era where batters are increasingly dominating the T20 game, Hinge and Hussain’s performances came as a breath of fresh air. While the IPL has unearthed many a young power-hitter, the world’s most competitive T20 league has also provided a platform for budding bowlers, prompting fans as well as pundits to sit up and take notice.
