Rishabh Pant was out for a golden duck.

Rishabh Pant has been in very good form of late. Before this game started, he was the highest run-getter for Delhi Daredevils with 227 runs in 6 innings. After a couple of 40s, Pant (batting at No. 4) struck a superb 48-ball 85 against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) after the top-order had failed to fire. But in the last game, he registered his first single-digit score of this season. He managed only 4 as he was bamboozled by Mujeeb Ur Rahman.

In this game, Pant came into bat with a perfect platform. However, in a game where most of the DD batsmen made merry, he fell for a first ball duck as he was consumed by a well-directed bouncer from Andre Russell. The 20-year-old wicket-keeper batsman failed to get out of the way as the ball flew off his glove into the keeper’s hands. It was the second consecutive failure for Pant.
