New Delhi: IPL 2025 ka sabse thrilling match dekhne ko mila jab Delhi Capitals (DC) ne Rajasthan Royals (RR) ko super over mein hara diya! Aur match ke hero rahe Mitchell Starc, jinhone na sirf game bachaya, balki post-match ek hot topic ko bhi ignite kar diya!
Match ke baad Starc ne saliva ban par apni opinion openly share ki. Jab ICC ne COVID ke time par saliva ka use ban kiya tha, tab se ye topic bowlers ke beech garma-garmi ka reason ban gaya hai. BCCI ne IPL 2025 ke liye is ban ko hata diya hai, lekin Starc ka kehna kuch aur hi hai.
“I don’t use it. I think it’s a myth. Some people think they swear by it. I don’t know what the difference is with sweat and saliva. I don’t reckon it makes a difference. It can make a difference on the red ball. I don’t reckon it makes a difference on the white ball.” – Mitchell Starc, Star Sports interview
Starc ka kehna hai ki white-ball cricket mein sweat hi kaafi hai ball ko shine dene ke liye. Unke mutabik, saliva ka use sirf red-ball matches mein thoda benefit de sakta hai. Isse pehle Mohammed Shami ne bola tha ki saliva ban se reverse swing gayab ho gaya hai, aur unhone ICC se appeal bhi ki thi ki is rule ko wapas laayein.
Match Recap: RR ne Yashasvi Jaiswal aur Nitish Rana ke strong start ke baad match almost jeet hi liya tha. 6 balls mein sirf 9 runs chahiye the, lekin Starc ne sirf 8 runs diye aur game ko super over tak le gaye. Super over mein bhi unhone sirf 11 runs diye, jise DC ne sirf 4 balls mein chase kar liya!
Is jeet ke saath Delhi Capitals IPL 2025 ke points table mein top par aa gayi hai. Ab unka next match 19 April ko Gujarat Titans ke khilaaf hai, Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad mein.
Toh ab sawal yeh hai – kya sach mein sweat hi kaafi hai? Ya Shami ki baat mein dum hai? Filhal toh Starc ne apne performance se sabka munh band kar diya hai!
