IPL ki thakaan ko hawa mein udate hue South African young gun Tristan Stubbs ne England ki dharti par kadam rakhte hi tabahi macha di hai. Flight se utre abhi 24 ghante bhi nahi hue the aur Tristan Stubbs ne apne balle se aag ugalni shuru kar di. Vitality Blast ke is muqable mein Hampshire Hawks ko unki pehli jeet mil gayi hai aur iska poora credit jaata hai Tristan Stubbs ki fearless batting aur Scott Currie ki lethal bowling ko.
The Inner Story: IPL se seedha Vitality Blast tak ka Masterclass
Doston, asli maajra yeh hai ki Tristan Stubbs ke liye IPL ka season Delhi Capitals ke saath thoda thanda raha tha, lekin bade khiladi ki pehchaan yahi hai ki woh bounce back karna jaanta hai. Hampshire Hawks ki innings ek waqt par phansi hui lag rahi thi jab 10 overs mein score sirf 80 runs par 3 wickets tha. James Vince aur Toby Albert jaldi out ho gaye the aur run banana mushkil ho raha tha.
Lekin tab shuru hui asli Dominance. Tristan Stubbs ne pehle Joe Weatherley ke saath milkar innings ko sambhala aur phir Hilton Cartwright ke saath milkar jo dhulayi ki, use dekh kar Essex Eagles ke bowlers ke hosh ud gaye. Akhiri 37 ball mein in dono ne 84 runs koot diye. Tristan Stubbs ne apni innings mein 5 bade sixes lagaye aur team ka total 200 tak pahuncha diya, jo ek waqt par namumkin lag raha tha.
Jab chase ki baari aayi, toh Essex Eagles kabhi bhi match mein nazar nahi aaye. Scott Currie ne aisi tigh line pakdi ki batting lineup bikhar gayi. Luc Benkenstein ne 48 runs banakar thodi koshish zaroor ki, lekin unhe dusre end se kisi ka saath nahi mila. Scott Currie ne apne career ka best figure 4 for 18 nikaala aur Essex Eagles ko 170 par hi rok diya.
