IPL 2025: Avesh’s Relentless Yorkers Brought LSG Back In The Game They Almost Lost, Says Manjrekar
Lucknow Super Giants: Former India batter Sanjay Manjrekar praised Avesh Khan’s relentless execution of yorkers in the death overs, saying that it single-handedly propelled Lucknow Super Giants’ (LSG) to secure a narrow two-run win over Rajasthan Royals (RR).
At the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, RR were perfectly poised to win as they needed 25 runs off 18 balls. But Avesh Khan delivered one pin-point yorker after the other to pick three wickets - of Yashasvi Jaiswal, Riyan Parag and Shimron Hetmyer - in his last two overs.
He also defended nine runs off the final over to give his team a memorable win, with his figures reading as 3-37, as RR fell to a second straight close defeat.
