#2 Liam Plunkett’s fabulous start to the IPL

The Daredevils did not play Mohammed Shami today and instead opted for the experienced Liam Plunkett. Plunkett lived up to the trust placed in him by Gautam Gambhir by dismissing the dangerous KL Rahul in the fifth over.
He then bowled Mayank Agarwal with a quick good length delivery which shattered his off stump. Plunkett then took his third wicket of the match by getting the crucial wicket of Karun Nair who hit a slow delivery towards long-on where Shreyas Iyer took the catch. Plunkett ended his spell with 3/17 from his four overs.
Plunkett’s spell is sufficient to prove that he will be a regular in DD’s scheme of things as they look to stand a chance of making the playoffs.
