Legends League Cricket 2024 is making history, as evidenced by another memorable moment from Match 19 between Toyam Hyderabad and Southern Super Stars that astounded onlookers.
After winning the toss and choosing to bat first, Super Stars captain Kedar Jadhav was batting on 15 when top-order batsman Shivakant Shukla, who was born in Allahabad, took a beautiful delivery and destroyed him. The delivery was made on a little channel that was well outside of the off-stump by the right-arm off-spinner. Such a delivery would often be anticipated to be played off the back foot with a cut or punch. Nevertheless, the ball veered wildly off course and entered to strike the off-stump, surpassing Jadhav’s bat.
How much did that ball turn?!👀🥵
Kedar Jadhav had absolutely no answer to this ripper from Shivakant Shukla!

The odd sequence of events was encapsulated in Jadhav’s and the opposition wicketkeeper, Jaskaran Malhotra’s, response. They both indicated the location from whence the ball spun cunningly.
Kedar Jadhav is having a terrible time with the ball as Hyderabad dominates.
In an attempt to shift the tide in favour of his team, the Super Stars captain launched an offensive in the fifteenth over. In contrast, Hyderabad won the match with five wickets and ten balls remaining after Jadhav gave up eighteen runs in his only over of the ball.
