Mohammad Shami concedes 24 in final over after Virat Kohli's wicket, netizens roast pacer

It was a mixed bag for Team India pacer Mohammad Shami when he faced off against Bangalore in the Dream11 IPL 2020 on Thursday. The 30-year-old has been in fine form throughout the tournament and started the clash against Virat Kohli and co. on a positive note. However, Sharjah's small dimensions can be cruel on the bowlers, as Chris Morris smashed Mohammad Shami all over the park on Thursday.

However, the fast bowler's joy was short-lived after Chris Morris and Isuru Udana took him to the cleaners in the 20th over of the clash. The South African all-rounder opened the floodgates with a ramp shot over short fine leg for four before partner in crime Isuru Udana also pulled one into the stands. The Sri Lankan star then brought in form Chris Morris back on strike, who thumped the final two deliveries off the Mohammad Shami over for sixes to lift Bangalore to a competitive total of 171.

The Team India captain also became the highest scoring captain in Dream11 IPL history, going past Chennai skipper MS Dhoni. However, unlike Kohli, AB De Villiers had a night to forget, as he was dismissed for a paltry two off five balls by Mohammad Shami. A win on Thursday will move Bangalore closer to the top of the Dream11 IPL 2020 table, while Punjab would hope to register just their second win of the campaign.
