IPL 2018, SRH vs DD: Hits and Misses

#4 Miss: Avesh Khan

It was a disappointing performance from Avesh Khan.

Avesh Khan burst onto the scene in the 2016 Under-19 World Cup because of his ability to bowl quick. He played just one game for RCB last year and was picked up by DD for Rs 70 lakh in the auction this year.

After sitting out for the first couple of weeks, Avesh Khan got his opportunity against Kings XI Punjab and impressed everybody. In this game, the 21-year-old pacer shared the new ball with Trent Boult and conceded two fours in his first over.

But it was his second over that was the most expensive of the game. He started his second over with a no-ball and the free-hit was dispatched for six by Shikhar Dhawan.

And then Alex Hales smashed the young pacer for 3 more sixes to fetch 27 runs off the last over of the powerplay. He then conceded 10 runs in his third over and finished the game with figures of 0/47 in his 3 overs and had an off day.
