[Watch] Devdutt Padikkal gets out on duck on LSG debut; Gets castles by old teammate Trent Boult

Devdutt Padikkal got out on a three-ball duck on his debut match for LSG against RR in IPL 2024.

Left-handed batter Devdutt Padikkal‘s much-anticipated debut for the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) ended on a horrible note as he was dismissed for a duck by Rajasthan Royals (RR) pacer Trent Boult in fifth match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on March 24.

The incident happened during the third over of the LSG innings when Padikkal, who was traded from RR just ahead of the IPL 2024 mini-auction, was the second batter after opener Quinton de Kock to be sent packing by ace pacer Boult. 

Royals left-arm pacer Boult on the previous delivery bowled a sharp bouncer which struck on Padikkal’s helmet. On the very next ball, Boult produced a peach of a delivery that nipped back sharply to castle the middle-stump of LSG batter, who was aiming to pull, and soon after his dismissal, the whole LSG dugout was shell-shocked.
