‘What is this guy bowling, he’ll break my bats, man'- Shimron Hetmyer faces Lasith Malinga in nets

Contrary to last year, Rajasthan have performed exceedingly well thus far in the ongoing edition of the Indian T20 League. A lot of credit should be given to the management for making notable acquisitions at the Indian T20 League 2022 Mega Auction.

The decision to pick both Yuzvendra Chahal and Ravichandran Ashwin has done wonders for the team. The duo has done a brilliant job for the team so far. With 4 wins in 6 matches, Rajasthan currently find itself at number three on the points table.

Jos Buttler is wreaking havoc with the bat. In just 6 matches, he has already hit 2 tons and is currently the highest run-getter in this edition’s tournament. Buttler has 375 runs to his name in 6 matches at an average of 75.00.

Besides, Shimron Hetmyer has done a great job with the bat as well. Playing for a new franchise, Hetmyer has looked in great touch. He has consistently played vital knocks while batting at lower down the order and got the team to formidable scores on the board. Overall, he has managed to score 223 runs in 6 matches at an average of 74.33 and a strike rate of 179.84.

Ahead of Rajasthan’s next game against Delhi, Shimron Hetmyer was seen facing the best fast bowler in the history of the Indian T20 League- Lasith Malinga. In a recent video uploaded by Rajasthan, Lasith Malinga was seen bowling toe crushing yorkers to Hetmyer.

The Sri Lankan pacer consistently bowled yorkers to the West Indies batter without even making a taking a run-up. After being faced with a wide yorker, Hetmyer also made a cheeky comment: "What is this guy bowling? He'll break my bats, man! Having said that, the West Indies batter also ensured that he hit the ball in the night sky whenever it was in his arc.

Rajasthan are slated to play their next game against Delhi on Friday at Wankhede Cricket Stadium in Mumbai.
