KKR's Andre Russell first bowler in IPL to take four wickets in an over

Andre Russell on Saturday became the first player in the history of the Indian Premier League (IPL) to achieve a four-wicket haul in a one-over spell. Russell achieved this feat during the clash against Gujarat Titans (GT) at the DY Patil stadium. He dismissed Abhinav Manohar, Lockie Ferguson, Rahul Tewatia and Yash Dayal in the 20th over of the GT innings to restrict them at 156/9. Earlier, the record of most wickets in a single over was held by Kolkata's Laxmi Ratan Shukla, who had registered a figure of 3/6 against Delhi Capitals (then Delhi Daredevils) in 2008.
