If Vaibhav Suryavanshi had got out after playing 11 balls, then anyone would have guessed that he would have scored at least 25-30 runs, but on Wednesday he was seen struggling against Mohsin Khan. Vaibhav was out after scoring 8 runs in 11 balls at a strike rate of 72. During this time something also happened which had never happened before.
Vaibhav Suryavanshi did not spare big bowlers in IPL. Rarely has he played even 3 dot balls consecutively, but on Wednesday against Mohsin Khan, he played even more dot balls. Vaibhav had scored 248 runs in the first 6 matches of the season.
Looked helpless in front of Mohsin
This happened in the fourth over of the innings, which was bowled by Mohsin Khan. The bowler started putting pressure on Vaibhav Suryavanshi from the first ball, he bowled good balls on which Vaibhav only played defensive cricket and tried for a single but could not score a single run. After 5 consecutive balls being dot, the pressure on Vaibhav started increasing. Mohsin Khan had trapped him in his net, he was caught out while trying to hit a big hit on the last ball.
Mohsin bowled the last ball on the length of the off stump, Vaibhav tried to hit this ball on the leg side but the ball hit the bottom of the bat and rose high. Digvesh Singh Rathi, standing on the cover, took a good catch while running backwards.

While chasing the target, Lucknow Super Giants had a very bad start, opener Mitchell Marsh remained strong at one end but the top 3 batsmen at the other end could not even open the account. Ayush Badoni was run out due to lack of coordination.
After this, Rishabh Pant tried to hit a big hit with the first ball, but while playing an irresponsible shot on his third ball, he was caught out by the wicketkeeper. Aidan Markram, who came at number four, was also out on zero. The entire Lucknow team collapsed for 119 runs in 18 overs and Rajasthan Royals won the match by 40 runs.
