Sai Kishore foxes Krunal Pandya with a brilliant carrom ball in RCB vs GT IPL 2025 match [Watch]
Gujarat Titans (GT) spinner Sai Kishore dismissed Krunal Pandya cheaply in their IPL 2025 clash against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) at M Chinnaswamy Stadium on Wednesday, April 2. Krunal walked back for a run-a-ball five to leave the hosts in tatters at 104/6 in the 15th over.
The dismissal came off the second delivery of the 15th over of RCB’s innings. Kishore bowled a carrom ball that straightened after pitching. The left-handed batter failed to pick up the ball and closed the face of the bat while trying to place it toward the leg side. All he managed was a leading edge, and Kishore took an easy return catch to bag the second scalp of his spell.

Left-arm spinner Sai Kishore has been brilliant for GT, returning with figures of 3/30 and 1/37 against Punjab Kings (PBKS) and Mumbai Indians (MI), respectively, in their first two games. The Titans had used the Right to Match (RTM) option to buy him for INR 2 crore at the IPL 2025 mega auction last year.
Meanwhile, Krunal Pandya has been dismal with the bat, managing a duck against the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in his previous outing. He, however, bagged three wickets against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the season opener.
