IPL 2020: Rajasthan release unseen footage of Jofra Archer; shows prep for '6666' blitz

After wrecking a complete carnage against Chennai last night, Rajasthan revealed what went behind the scenes are Jofra Archer prepared for his blitzkrieg. The Englishman wreaked complete havoc, against Lungi Ngidi in particular, as he made him pay for his errors. Archer smashed fours sixes in a row off just 2 deliveries in the last over of the first innings making Ngidi the bowler of the joint most-expensive over in IPL. Archer's big hits also helped Rajasthan cross the 200-mark which the MS Dhoni & Co. eventually could not chase down. In a video shared by Rajasthan, Archer can be seen practicing some power-hitting in the nets. The bowling all-rounder is seen smacking premier Rajasthan bowlers including Tom Curran and Jayadev Unadkat for maximums.

The spinner also scalped the wicket of Sam Curran who hit him for two sixes and then bagged the wicket of Ruturaj Gaekwad. With the chase looking far-fetched, Faf du Plessis continued to keep Chennai in the game with some brilliant maximums. Despite the Proteas' batsman's gritty half-century, Chennai were unable to chase the target with some tight death bowling by Jofra Archer and Tom Curran. du Plessis top-scored for the MS Dhoni-led side with 72 runs before getting dismissed off Archer's short-pitched delivery.
