IPL ka naya season, nayi shuruaat, aur naye josh ke saath utri Chennai Super Kings ko apne pehle hi match mein laga zabardast jhatka! Jo log soch rahe the ki ‘nayi look’ se sab theek ho jayega, unhe Rajasthan Royals ne pehle hi game mein aaina dikha diya. Guwahati ke maidan par CSK ka batting order taash ke patton ki tarah bikhar gaya, aur score board par dikha sirf 127 runs! Ye toh seedha 2025 ke us saal ki yaad dila gaya jab CSK bottom par thi. Kya badal gaya hai Chennai ka luck, ya yeh sirf ek bura din tha?
Asli Maajra: Rajasthan Ki Masterclass Aur Chennai Ki Dhool Chatayi
Rajasthan Royals ne critical toss jeetkar pehle bowling ka decision liya, aur ye Masterclass move sabit hua. Guwahati ki pitch, jo baarish ke baad covers ke neeche thi, us par Royals ke bowlers ne poora fayda uthaya. Powerplay mein hi CSK ne 4 wickets kho diye aur sirf 41 run banaye. Isse buri shuruaat kya ho sakti hai?
Doston, yeh sirf pitch ka kamaal nahi tha. Jofra Archer aur Nandre Burger ne Test-match lengths par ball daal kar CSK ke top order ko poori tarah se destroy kar diya. Burger ne toh seedha Sanju Samson ka off stump ukhad diya, jab Samson inswinger expect kar rahe the, aur ball ne unhe dhokha de diya! Fir aaye Captain Ruturaj Gaikwad, jo trouble se nikalne ki koshish mein apne saare stumps expose kar baithe aur Archer ne unhe bhi out kar diya. Dono sirf 6-6 runs par chalte bane. Middle order bhi is rot ko rok nahi paya.
Sabse bada Gamechanger moment aaya jab Ravindra Jadeja ne 17 saal baad Rajasthan Royals mein vaapsi karte hi pehle hi over mein do wickets chatka diye. Ayush Mhatre Burger ki bouncer par golden duck par out huye, aur injured Dewald Brevis ki jagah aaye Matt Short bhi Sandeep Sharma ko midwicket par catch dekar 2 runs par chalte bane. Jab Jadeja ne Impact Player Sarfaraz Khan aur Shivam Dube ko out kiya, tab CSK ka score 57/6 tha. Lagbhag sab khatam! Akhir mein Overton ne Anshul Kamboj ke saath milkar 33 runs ki partnership karke CSK ko 120 ke paar pahunchaya, lekin woh sirf formality thi.
