In Match 67 of IPL 2023, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) opener Jason Roy fumed after his innings was drawn to a conclusion by Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) skipper Krunal Pandya during the high-voltage contest. The incident occurred during the final ball of the 10th over while KKR were on course to chase LSG’s competitive first-innings score of 176 runs.
In the sixth ball of the 10th over, Krunal kept the ball low on a short length, sticking to the middle line. However, as it straightened after pitching, the ball zipped quickly and brushed onto the stumps, thereby dismissing the KKR batter.
Jason, who appeared solid with his quickfire knock of 45 off 28 balls, was seen fuming following the dismissal as he headed back to the pavilion. His blazing knock, amassed at a strike rate of 160.71, included seven boundaries and one six. With his dismissal, KKR were reduced to 82/3, losing three wickets for just 21 runs.
