Rajasthan Royals pacer Kuldeep Sen produced a sterling bowling performance during his side’s game against the Gujarat Titans at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on Wednesday.
The pacer got his first wicket with the dismissal of opener Sai Sudharsan as he caught the southpaw in front of the wickets as the batter looked to play a shot behind the wicket after moving across the stumps, however, unsuccessfully.
However, Sen’s dismissals of Australian Matthew Wade and Abhinav Manohar shortly after in the very same over caught eyeballs across the nation as he castled both batters using his pace.

Samson, making his 50th appearance as the RR skipper, remained unbeaten on his landmark cap with a 38-ball-68 run knock. Shimron Hetmyer closed out the innings alongside his captain with a couple of boundaries off his willow to propel RR to a total of 196/3 in 20 overs.
