In a gripping contest during the opening match of the Duleep Trophy 2024 between India A and India B, fans at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium were treated to a spectacular moment when Washington Sundar clean bowled KL Rahul in the 48th over of India A’s first innings.

KL Rahul’s departure

Rahul, who had been anchoring India A’s innings after facing 111 deliveries, seemed well-settled with a score of 37 runs, including 4 boundaries. However, his resistance came to an unfortunate end surprisingly and dramatically. In only his second over, Sundar delivered a well-flighted ball that dipped and turned sharply after being tossed up around the off-stump. Rahul attempted a paddle sweep but misjudged the trajectory, resulting in the ball sneaking past his bat and crashing into his leg stump. Disappointed, Rahul shook his head as he walked off the field, visibly frustrated with the manner of his dismissal.
