IPL 2022: Five rookie Indian pacers who have impressed so far

Over the years the IPL has been pretty well known for bringing to the fore, exceptional domestic talents, and the league once again put the spotlight firmly on some extremely talented young guns. And at the centre of the buzz so far have been the rookie fast bowlers, who are coming up the ranks fast and playing significant roles for their teams.

In IPL, it is very important to handle pressure as a bowler: Avesh Khan

Avesh Khan feels bowlers hardly have any respite in a tournament like the IPL, and the key to success for him lies in handling the pressure. Avesh, the most expensive uncapped Indian player in the ongoing IPL after LSG paid 25 times more than his base price of Rs 20 lakh to avail his services, picked up four big wickets conceding just 24 runs against Sunrisers Hyderabad.

IPL 2022: Avesh Khan's 'bowl slow' plan worked wonders in Lucknow's win over Hyderabad

Lucknow Super Giants' (LSG) pacer Avesh Khan provided his team breakthroughs in both the powerplay as well as in the death overs to deny 2016 champions Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) any chances of a comeback here on Tuesday. It eventually scripted Lucknow's 12-run win in the IPL 2022 match at the DY Patil Stadium. LSG scored 169/7 and went on to successfully defend the target, thanks to Khan's bowling spell (4 for 24). "Effort was to give wickets to the team because that's what the team wants from me. I wanted to take wickets in powerplay phase and slog-overs phase," said Khan at the post-match presentation ceremony.

IPL 2022: Multi-faceted Rajasthan Royals start favourites against Royal Challengers Bangalore

Rajasthan Royals’ leadership group were one of the teams that aced the game on the IPL auction table and that has served them well in the two games they have played so far. The perennial underdogs of the previous editions have kickstarted the season with power-packed performances. With two wins from as many matches, Royals captain Sanju Samson seems to have the required artillery, especially in the bowling department, to aim for a few more wins and qualify for the playoffs.

IPL 2022: We'll reflect on the small margins, says Hyderabad skipper Kane Williamson after losing to Lucknow

Sunrisers Hyderabad skipper Kane Williamson said that although there were enough glimpses on Tuesday during the chase of 170 to take the side home against Lucknow Super Giants, it wasn't good enough to do so. In their chase of 170, SRH were ahead in the contest when Rahul Tripathi and Aiden Markram had a 47-run stand, which was followed by Nicholas Pooran's 24-ball 34. But in the last three overs, where SRH needed 33 runs, Avesh Khan and Jason Holder took two and three wickets respectively to hand LSG a 12-run win.

Pacer scalps four after skipper Rahul, Hooda revive team with 50sSunrisers Hyderabad came back well in their second game but it was not good enough for them to cross the line. They retained the team that did duty in the opener - and like in the first game Kane Williamson decided to field - but looked good only in parts at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai on Monday. AS IT HAPPENED | SCORECARD | POINTS TABLEThey restricted Lucknow Super Giants to 169/7 and faltered in the chase to finish at 157/9 for a 12-run defeat. The Powerplay gave little idea of things to come, as Washington Sundar showed why his prowess in the first six overs is rated so highly. The 22-year-old, who battled injury and illness last year, set Lucknow back in his very first over. Williamson was spot on in getting the match-up right as Quinton de Kock's intended drive was neatly pouched by the Sunrisers' skipper. Evin Lewis was cramped for room and survived an umpire's call but Sundar (2/28) was not to be denied his man and when Manish Pandey succumbed cheaply against his former team, Lucknow were reduced to 36 for three in the powerplay.
