6 wickets fell for 1 run, 2 bowlers wreaked havoc, and everything was over for this team in 43 balls in a 20-over match!

When it comes to T20 matches, it is said that bowlers are dominating. But sometimes the opposite happens. The bowlers dominate the batsmen. Just like what was seen in the Kerala Cricket League match played on 3rd September, in which Trivandrum Royals faced Alleppey Ripples. This match was completed in 20-20 overs. But the script of its result was written by those 43 balls, which were bowled by two bowlers named Fazil Fanoos and Anand Joseph. Both these bowlers were part of Alleppey Ripples in the match. And, they bowled in such a way that the team did not have to put in much effort to win the match.

Trivandrum Royals set a target of 146 runs

Alleppey batted first in the match. That is, they set the target. Playing first, the team led by wicketkeeper-batsman Mohammad Azharuddin scored 145 runs for 8 wickets in 20 overs. That is, they set a target of 146 runs for Trivandrum Royals to win. But, when Trivandrum Royals came out to chase the target, the situation looked a little different.

Trivandrum Royals lost 6 wickets for 1 run!

The first 2 wickets of Trivandrum Royals fell without any runs being added to the scoreboard. After this, 1 run was added to the score but as soon as that was added, the third blow also came. Now there were 3 wickets for 1 run and the team was in trouble. In the middle overs, they tried to control this difficult situation. The team scored 112 runs for 7 wickets. But, after that, the remaining 3 wickets returned to the dugout without adding any runs to the scoreboard. Meaning, the whole team was all out for 112 runs. If we look at it this way, including the first 3 wickets and the last 3 wickets, 6 wickets of Trivandrum Royals fell for just 1 run, which became the main reason for their defeat.

These 2 bowlers took 8 wickets in 43 balls

Trivandrum Royals team could not even play the full 20 overs. They scored just 112 runs in 18.1 overs and lost the match by 33 runs. The reason for this poor condition of Trivandrum Royals was 2 Alleppey bowlers Fazil Fanoos and Anand Joseph. Both of them together shared 8 wickets of Trivandrum Royals in 43 balls. Fazil took 4 wickets for 16 runs in 4 overs. Whereas Anand Joseph took 4 wickets for just 7 runs in 3.1 overs.
