IPL News: This bowler was washed out in his debut cricket match, know who?

West Indies fast bowler Shamar Joseph made his IPL debut for Lucknow Super Giants against Kolkata Knight Riders. However, this Caribbean bowler, who created a stir with his fast bowling in Australia, did not have a good start. Joseph went astray in his first over and had to bowl 10 balls to complete the first over of his IPL career and the bowling was washed out. Shamar’s over proved to be very expensive and a total of 22 runs were scored in the first over.

Shamar Joseph lost direction in the very first over

Shamar Joseph bowled the first over of his IPL match at Eden Gardens. Joseph bowled the first two balls well. But on the third ball, KKR opener Sunil Narine hit a four. He bowled the next two balls well but became directionless on the last ball, which continued throughout the match. It took a total of 5 balls for Shamar to bowl the last ball of the first over. He bowled 2 wides and 2 balls in this over.

Actually, Shamar hit no on the fifth ball of the over. After this, two wides and then another no ball were given to avoid a free hit. In this way, he had to bowl 10 balls to complete the over. Phil Salt also hit a six on the last ball of the over. Shamar Joseph bowled 3 balls and 7 wides in the entire match and those too proved to be very expensive. He gave a total of 47 runs in 4 overs with an economy of around 12. Let us tell you that Shamar Joseph was bought by Lucknow Super Giants for Rs 3 crore.

Shamar Joseph’s name first came into limelight in international cricket when he bowled over the Australian batsmen with his deadly balls. West Indies got a historic victory after 36 years on the basis of their dangerous bowling at Gabba, which is called Australia’s stronghold in cricket. He broke Australia’s back by taking 7 wickets in the second innings. Earlier, Shamar had made a dream debut in Adelaide. Where he took 5 wickets in the first innings of the debut match.
