Greatest IPL performances of all-time

#4 Sohail Tanvir’s 6/14

Chennai Super Kings were the favorites to win the inaugural edition of IPL while Rajasthan Royals were considered as underdogs.

When the favorites took on the underdogs, records were broken. CSK won the toss and elected to bat first. They were expecting to put a big score on the board, but Tanvir had other plans. None of the CSK batsmen had any clue on how to play this unorthodox Pakistani pacer.

As a result, he started picking up wickets in quick succession resulting in CSK getting bowled out for 109.

Sohail Tanvir finished with figures of 4 overs, 14 runs and 6 wickets - a record which has never been broken to this date.

If ever given a chance to change a storyline, Sunil would have booked Roman Reigns to end The Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak instead of Brock Lesnar. According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
