Hosein Tops Powerplay Spinner Wickets Since 2023
CSK's Impact Player Akeal Hosein took 4/17 to leave MI at 29/3 in the Powerplay while chasing 207.
Akeal Hosein leads all spinners with 74 Powerplay wickets since 2023. He has delivered 51.8% of his overs in the first six, a mark that reflects captains' trust in this overseas left-arm spinner from the outset.
CSK handed him the new ball against MI, where he claimed 4/17 as the opposition slumped to 29/3 in the Powerplay. They folded at 104 while chasing 207, with Sanju Samson scoring 101 not out for CSK and Noor Ahmad taking 2/24. Hosein's economy stood at an impressive 5.8.
Batsmen now face swing followed by turn from the start, as he targets right-handers with variations. No let-up.
