IPL 2021, PBKS Vs RCB: Fans hail Harpreet Brar after he dismisses Virat Kohli, Glenn Maxwell, AB de Villiers.
Harpreet Brar played his first match in the ongoing Indian Premier League on Friday for Punjab Kings and he must be remembering his maiden IPL appearance as he dismissed Royal Challenger Bangalore's big three such as the captain Virat Kohli, Glen Maxwell, and AB de Villiers to effectively nip in the bud RCB’s chances of chasing down Punjab’s 179 in Ahmadabad. These were also Brar's first three IPL wickets. He started off with the big wicket of Kohli (35), who missed a delivery after having come down the pitch and lost his leg stump.
On the very next delivery, Brar bowled a bail-trimmer, getting Maxwell (0) both bowled and stunned at his dismissal. The hat-trick was averted by de Villiers but he couldn’t keep Brar at bay for long as he was caught by KL Rahul for three. Fans hailed Brar's performance and lauded him on dismissing three of the best T20 players in the world, all in the same match.
Brar's returns helped Punjab run through RCB's top order and middle order. They went on to win the match by 34 runs.
