#1 Mustafizur to Russell

There is no better sight for a bowler than watching a batsman lose his stumps to a delivery he bowled. However, if something tops that, it is witnessing the batsman fall to the ground while trying to defend his wicket.

Something like this happened with Sunrisers Hyderabad took on Kolkata Knight Riders.

Andre Russell was the most important player for KKR. His incredible power hitting in the final part of the innings is well complemented by his ability to bowl in the right areas. So when Mustafizur Rahman crashed his stumps while also making him taste the pitch, it was a sight to behold.

The 20-year old Bangladeshi bowled a solid yorker. The pace of it perhaps stunned the West Indian as he was completely out of position and desperately brought his bat down to stop the ball, falling over in the process.
